State officials are requiring the City of Del Mar to add 163 units over the next 8 years in an effort to combat the state’s housing crisis. KUSI's Matt Prichard was out in Del Mar talking with Mayor Dwight Worden about requirements from the state.
SAN DIEGO -The City of Del mar is facing a challenge to fit more affordable housing units into the small town.
“We’re small, there are only about 2,200 units in our town right now. Adding 163 is a lot. Number two, we don’t really have any vacant land, or we have very little vacant land and number three what vacant land we do have is very expensive,” said Mayor Worden. 54 units could fit onto about an acre of land, but it will take coordination between multiple agencies to make it a reality.
The state has given Del Mar three years to try and get that community agreement, but is requiring them to have a backup plan. Mayor Worden says that could mean utilizing land along the North Bluffs area, which would be more expensive and difficult to create a large number of affordable housing units.
