Santa Cruz Local

Santa Cruz County's history of no-growth policies have shaped today's local housing crisis. Now, we're at a crossroads with new state leadership that wants to spur development. We break down SB 50 - a proposed bill that would limit cities' ability to block apartment projects. We tell you where in the county SB 50 would affect. We also tell you how local cities are doing with their housing goals (spoiler alert: not great). At the end, we talk about Santa Cruz's pending Ross Camp closure and how to submit "audio letters to the editor."
