Opinion: New policy gives neglected San Diego communities overdue help with their infrastructure [Opinion]
For decades, visitors to San Diego who go to poorer parts of the city after first seeing the affluence in La Jolla, Carmel Valley or Rancho Bernardo could be in for a shock. In some southern communities, well used-roads, and parks, libraries and public safety facilities are much less common. But when city leaders were asked about this, some depicted it as an unavoidable fact of life because of rules requiring developer fees be spent in the neighborhoods where they were collected.
The city will give a higher priority to projects in neighborhoods that are historically neglected and low-income, that are experiencing the most growth and that are least prepared for the effects of the climate emergency. Under the new approach, the city must do far more outreach in less affluent communities to give their residents a bigger role in infrastructure planning and decisions.
