I know, I know, the local NIMBYs would flip out...and at least we're getting more housing at all. But this is the kind of "safe" (in terms of size, and chances of being accepted by NIMBYs) under-development that helped us get into the housing crisis.

The same bullshit is going on with the Balboa reservoir.
