Santa Cruz doesn't need taller buildings; it needs a vision for sustainable affordable housing
Longtime Santa Cruz resident Laura Lee believes the Santa Cruz downtown expansion plan "moves us in the wrong direction." She thinks the boom will impair views, cause traffic congestion, overwhelm public services and detract from the small-town way of life she cherishes. The expansion plan, she writes, has caused "a substantial portion of city residents" to lose confidence in city leaders: "We see them placing corporate profits above resident priorities."
