Toward the end of the Jan. 26 council meeting, Vice Mayor Anita Enander asked Mayor Neysa Fligor if they could bring in someone from the Palo Alto-based Embarcadero Institute to discuss the institute’s report, which accuses the state of using incorrect data from vacancy rates and also “double counting,” leading to legislation that exaggerated the number of housing units required in the Bay Area and other regions across the state. ....
