LORRAINE ROSENFELD Rodee also said he would push for more vigorous enforcement of the city's building codes and the hiring of additional code en- forcement officers, if necessary . to catch violators and to ensure adherence to health and safety laws. Simultaneous!) with that ef- fort, Rodee said, the city should try to attract more tourists. On a city-wide basis, Rodee said he would work to ensure Oceanside residents have enough water. He said he \l'Ould do that by lessening the city's complete dependence on im- ported water. "There 1s water available in Oceanside from a number of sources," he said. Rodee. co-author of Propos1• tion A, the slow-growth initiative enacted last year by vo,ers, said he would strictly enforce the ini- tiative, Cntics have charged that Rodee will be unable to mec,t the demands of his job and th< city. Rodee countered. however , that as a senior airline pilot, he has earned the right to turn down any assignments.

Inquiries about them, there- fore, should not be made. Manu- scripts will not be returned. where they most desire. If growth controls cover the entire San Diego metropolitan area, it may not be possible to shift development. There will still be serious conse- quences, however. The likely effects of Proposition D and J include in- creased unemployment, a higher cost of living, and reduced industrial ex- pansion. Regardless of the degree of regu- lation, one point is obvious: Control- ling the supply of housing in an ex- panding region will increase housing prices and rents. The benefits of this increase accrue primarily to multi- ple homeowners who receive capital gains and higher rental incomes. Those who do not own houses, on the other hand, will be made worse off. Renters will pay more to main- tain their residences and have less opportunity to buy houses. Because renters as a group contain a larger proportion of young, low-income and minority families, the benefits of growth controls will be regressive and somewhat discriminatory. Perhaps the greatest cost of growth controls is the loss in individ- ual freedom and liberty they repre- sent. An example makes this clear. Consider any declimng city where One way for such a city to address these problems is to mandate that no one can leave. Clearly such a policy woul'1 be seen as a blatant attack on personal freedom and civil liberties. Yet growth control as envisioned under Proposition D and J is really the same thing - and it would man- date such restrictions for 22 years. Another lost freedom is the ability of the housing market to respond to the demands of consumers. Develop- ers lose the ability to meet the desire of potential home buyers in regard to location and style. Instead, local bu- reaucrats determine every aspect of new developments, including who can build, what can be built, when it can be built, and what facilities must be included m the development. It is clear that appointed or elect- ed officials will have neither the nec- essary information nor the incen- tives to effectively and efficiently control development The results are economic inefficiency, the creation of deliberate shortages of housmg, more control over individual rights and no guarantees that the negative aspects of growth will ever be ad- dressed. The personal costs and the economic costs of growth controls under Proposition D and J will prove to be exceedingly high. These extreme costs and their in- flexible restrictions that would be imposed on the entire region for 22 years make them too expensive for any San Diegan to afford.

Stopping residential construction is offered as their blanket solution for such diverse issues as traffic congestion, the overcrowding of pub- lic places, inadequate sewage facili- ties, the deterioration of air quality, and the loss of open spaces. These are serious problems, and all require attention. Restrictions on building, as proposed by Propositions D and J, do not directly address any of these problems. Instead, these pro- posed building restrictions would create a shortage of housing and a host of negative economic conse- quences while exaggerating the neg- ative aspects of growth, If a region restricts building, de- velopment will logically shift to nearby areas. When the controlled areas are close to the central busi- ness district, development shifts out to the urban fringe. This invariably leads to increased commute times and traffic as well as the attendant increase in air pollution. The resulting urban sprawl is unwelcome and requires that new public facilities be constructed (more schools, roads, and parks, for exam- ple) while the facilities in existing neighborhoods go underutilized. Furthermore, because develop- ment must shift to second choice or ow-priority areas, consumers are enied the opportunity to reside OCT 27 1 I 811 OCT 2? 1988 f:JI iff ord offering HD ?-fC:, • experience Jl/k,a ' 1 P.
