Siyamak sits down with John Cruikshank, mayor of Rancho Palos Verdes in Los Angeles County. He will discuss the challenges facing California cities regarding the state housing mandate and the potential problems of government overreach when it comes to improving housing affordability.

“Right now the policymakers up in Sacramento don’t trust the cities to do their job. And so now they’re using the stick or lawsuits to force us into complying with what they have visioned for California,” Mr. Cruikshank said. “We’re doing this for affordability, but when you start off with already very expensive land, it never pencils out; it would never work.” #californiainsider #palosverdes #affordablehousing
