Dear Chair Hofman:
On behalf of the YIMBY Democrats of San Diego County, please accept this letter of support for the proposed Quince Apartments in Banker’s Hill. The YIMBY Democrats of San Diego County are dedicated to growing San Diego in the communities where we live. In addition to developing more affordable and market-rate housing to increase the supply of housing, we believe in prioritizing infill development near transit and employment centers with the goal of increasing our housing supply, leveraging our urban environments, protecting our natural resources and advancing economic inclusion and opportunity for all.
The Quince Apartments will build 162 apartments, which would provide much needed housing in an urban rich area, Banker’s Hill. Located in an urbanized and smart growth opportunity area, the project is also located near an existing transit facility. There is an inherent benefit of dense housing directly next to transit, as it provides transit options.
The YIMBY Democrats of San Diego County respectfully urges the Planning Commission support of the Quince Apartments. We look forward to the potential for new housing options close to transit. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Angeli Hoyos
President, YIMBY Democrats of San Diego County
