I wrote about the‼️Encanto ADU housing story through city council conversations ➡️TLDR; Council members snuck “Footnote 7” under a radio towers zoning law, not the ADU program, which reduces density regulations by 1/4 for developers in Encanto vs the 20k sqft for the rest of the county.

“Tears and disappointment flowed Monday after newly sworn-in President Donald Trump cut off a mobile app that allowed migrants to apply to enter the U.S. legally as asylum-seekers. All pending appointments made with the app have been canceled, too. “ #cbpone #border #sandiego
Trump shuts down CBP One immigration app, dashing migrants' hopes of entering U.S.
The CBP One app was set up under the Biden administration to create an orderly way for migrants to enter the U.S. and to reduce illegal border crossings.

🎯San Diego Housing Zine Drop

➡️Learn about local San Diego County housing issues, organizations, developments, and more. This is an independent zine💕 #sandiego #encanto #homelessness
San Diego Housing January 17, 2025 Issue #1 Page 1 We are Encanto A Communities fight to stop corporate development Encanto and their Southeastern SD neighbors suffer from lack of drainage, are considered food deserts, have no sidewalks or bike lanes, and are fire hazard severity zones. Unified in yellow, the community of Encanto, alongside other Southeastern San Diego community members, filled chambers on July 15, 2025 to condemn San Diego’s Accessory Dwelling Unit Bonus Program. The ADU program allows for higher density housing in both regions under a sneaky footnote calling for a minimum lot size of 5,000 sq ft vs the 20,000 sq ft required for the rest of San Diego. Border Patrol raids immigrant communities Families of loved ones taken by Border Patrol, across the Central Valley, plead for help on social media. Businesses are empty and fruit fields rot. This is the reality of raids heightening across California. 1/5 San Diegan’s are immigrants or refugees. They are our neighbors, families, coworkers, and friends. Page 2 Who is Responsible for homelessness Mayor Todd Gloria believes it’s the County of San Diego, calling out other cities for not pulling their weight in offering resources. He claims to have increased shelter beds over 70%, but has not (fact checked by Voice of San Diego).This follows the City of San Diego’s failed fundraising for “San Diegans Together Tackling Homelessness” in 2024, with a goal of $370 million. The city raised $1.3 million and held a single trash pick-up event. Cont. from page 1 Council member Henry Foster III, District 4 (which includes Encanto, Chollas, Emerald Hill, and more) was Chief of Staff when the footnote became law. Monica Montgomery Steppe passed the footnote. A community member stated this allows fast tracking for developers who will not be enforced to pursue traffic and environmental studies, calling it “kick backing.” $258.2 million deficit Mayor Todd Gloria hosted his 5th State of the City on January 15, 2025. Addressing hiring freezes and potential cost increases from parking meters to traffic violations across the City of San Diego. Citizens voted against Gloria’s final ditch effort to reduce the deficit through Measure E in 2024, an increase in sales tax from 7.75% to 8.75%. Programs, like Cal Fresh, are concerned of being cut down.
