Re:Oregon expected to enact first state-wide rent control law by maxerickson on Monday February 25, 2019 @09:17PM (#19251465)
The problem is that we are already doing 1 regardless of rent control.

Here there was a proposal to do a couple hundred units of entry level apartments and people shit their pants about it. It was about a quarter mile from the already poorest part of the county and people actually went to the planning commission and said stuff about not wanting the poors around there. One landlord basically argued he didn't want the competition.

In the end the state subsidies fell through anyway.
