[quote=Blogstar][quote=AN][quote=spdrun]Not even close to the density of Manhattan or SF. There is still more buildable land in greater SD than either of those two places.[/quote]I’m not talking about density. I’m talking about the fact that there is no big plot of buildable land left to build major tract of SFR. Everything is either already built or are reserved as open space, so you can’t build there. I’m also talking about SD city, not county. Although, even county is pretty close to complete built out.[/quote]
Developers may be allowed to buy at the open space through some mitigation process. Right now to split lots where I live as much as 60% of the acreage goes to open space. later when density encroaches I am pretty sure for the right price to the county the open space will be developed.

It’s a nice scheme. By the time the land is ripe only developers with deep pockets can afford to play and the county gets a lot of money and has control all the while.[/quote]
I hope not. I hope the city doesn’t reduce the open space and only approve high density projects from now on.
