Hillcrest is one step closer to having taller buildings and more housing, despite pushback from some community members.
While the city council's housing committee favored the blueprint growth, not all San Diegans are on board with the density planWhile the city council's housing committee favored the blueprint growth, not all San Diegans are on board with the density plan.
“We did sit before the city officials and talk to them about the blueprint plan, and we talked about these density issues, but it says this. Our voices just don't matter,” Patty Ducey-Brooks, a small business owner, said.Moore said the population growth may sound drastic as a lump sum but that it breaks down into 2.4% growth each year over the 30-year plan.
Ducey-Brooks is concerned about changes to traffic and parking. The proposal could make University Avenue, one of Hillcrest's main arteries, a one-way street. “Small businesses — we can't afford to continue to operate if, in fact, we can't get the public to come to us,” said Ducey-Brooks, who does not live in Hillcrest but is worried about ripple effects across Uptown.“San Diego and the state of California generally have made some mistakes as far as planning for the future," Moore said."We need to do some aggressive work to make up for those mistakes.
The plans could mean more housing and jobs. NBC 7's Todd Strain spoke with residents about their reactions to the plans.San Diego Police Department
