California doesn't have laws preventing housing construction. In fact, it's the opposite. The state has dictated to each city how many houses they must build in the next 5 years or get fined $10,000 per day. Cities are not allowed to decide whether they want more houses or more condos, it's mandated.
yes they do,
No, they don't. Post a link to the law. I'm not watching some illiterate asshole's video.
