A new lawsuit has been filed challenging Seattle’s “Mandatory Housing Affordability” ordinance because it makes housing unaffordable in the city.
The case is being brought by the Institute for Justice on behalf of Anita Adams and her family.
The idea by the city is to create a hammer to use against developers who want to build pricey units, as the alternative to extreme fees is to promise to rent out units at below-market rates for at least 75 years.
The IJ reported, however, that there are concerns about the scheme.
