Housing was in the spotlight Friday, July 31, at the Ontario Convention Center, where hundreds of business and civic leaders from the Inland Empire and Southern California gathered for a Housing Attainability Conference.
The focus of the conference was “addressing housing attainability through innovation and partnerships.”
Political leaders came out to discuss housing in the region, including Rep. Norma Torres, D-Ontario; Assemblymember Juan Carrillo, D-Victorville; along with state Sens. Kelly Seyarto, R-Murrieta; Rosilicie Ochoa Bogh, R-Yucaipa; and Sen. Bob Archuleta, D-Norwalk.
Steps to “address the housing crisis,” “affordable housing” and different housing types, builder and city partnerships, and “Opportunity Zones,” were discussion topics of the various panels.
The day-long event was put on by the Building Association of Southern California and National Core. Sponsors included developers, municipalities, elected leaders and this news organization.
