Hopefully it actually happens and the selfish homeowners of SoCal and the NIMBY ogres don't stifle this objective.

That's the kind of units were talking about. Just rounding to 2020, and it'll come out to 144k units per year for the region. Not bad. Aggressive indeed.

Took them long enough to realize the housing crisis is bad. Now if only upstate CA (bay area) can get on the train. I hear its a disaster up there housing and price wise.

Of course I want to see action, not words, so I'll hold judgement. CA has a tenancy to disappoint, so lets hope these 1.3 million units can happen without some NIMBY C-blocking every step of the way.

Sorry Chris, it ain't happening! The state comes out with these numbers every year and they are never met. They put pressure on all of the local jurisdictions to plan for more units, but it doesn't change the process and quagmire that exists to entitle and permit projects.
