The San Joaquin Valley city of Clovis broke California law by failing to plan for sufficient affordable housing, a Fresno County Superior Court judge ruled April 30. “It’s a huge win,” said Desiree Martinez, a homeless activist and petitioner in the lawsuit. Martinez and Maria de Jesus Sanchez sued the city in 2018, arguing that as low income renters, they were deliberately shut out of Clovis because of its vast swaths of land zoned exclusively for single family homes. Clovis is one of the most desirable communities in the San Joaquin Valley, with low crime rates and high performing schools. The city had long been scrutinized by California housing officials for not zoning sufficient land at high enough densities to accommodate apartments affordable to low income people, as required by law. The law is based on the idea that because of economies of scale, developers can build more affordably by packing more living space into less land.
