Reporter im here by city college. Its been the balboa reservoir area from San Francisco between ocean avenue and monterey boulevard. This parking lot is where students park but some Developers Want it to be housing. But before those developers possibly break ground here or anywhere in the state, they have to go through a lot of red tape to get there. So a lot of people have been blaming whats called the California Environmental quality act or ceqa that makes developers analyze the impact on the environment before they build and some say this law prevents housing from ever coming to fruition. So this report from researchers at ucberkeley and columbia say otherwise blaming local governments for making developers go through what they call an unnecessary and expensive process. Five bay area cities were examining the study, San Francisco, oakland, san jose, redwood city and palo alto. They found that 20 of the 27,612 homes proposed between the years 2014 and 2016 d go th analysis and that sometimes takes as long as a year to complete.

Reporter im standing in this parking lot that City College Students park their cars in every day because a lot of developers have their eyes on making this a housing project. But before Developers Break Ground here or any site in the state, they have to go through this notoriously complicated process. And a lot of people put the blame on whats called the California Environmental quality act or ceqa. It makes developers analyze the impact their project would have on the environment before building. Some argue this law prevents a lot of housing from ever being built. This new report says otherwise. It blames local governments for making developers go through what they call an unnecessary and expensive process. Five bay area cities were examined in the study, San Francisco, oakland, san jose, redwood city and palo alto. It found that 20 of the more than 27,000 homes proposed between 2014 and 2016 had to go through a complete ceqa analysis, a process that may sometimes take up to a year. And this is at a time when the state Housing Department claims that 397 cities are behind on their housing goals.
