Developer says application uses 'builder’s remedy'; targets approvals next year and phased construction starting 2027–2028
Summary
Applicant confirmed the entitlement is being pursued under the Housing Accountability Act / builders' remedy pathway; the team targets entitlement next year, demolition toward late 2027, first homes mid‑2028, and a two‑phase construction program lasting 3–4 years after ground‑breaking.
Responding to questions about approvals, Doug said the application is being processed under what is commonly called the builders' remedy as part of the state Housing Accountability Act. "The application is being done under what is colloquially known as Builders Remedy as part of the housing accountability act," he said when asked about the entitlement route.
Doug also gave a tentative schedule tied to the EIR and approvals: the EIR process typically takes eight to 12 months; the team is targeting project approvals next year, demolition toward the end of 2027, first shovels in the ground in early 2028, a roughly two‑year first phase and an overall 3–4 year construction period from the first shovel, with work proceeding east to west across the site.
