GUEST: director of Seattle For Growth, Roger Valdez, provides an honest perspective about the myriad efforts in Seattle, King County and Washington to provide "affordable" housing via government run programs. Consider Gov. Jay Inslee's $4 billion housing bond plan. King County and Seattle failing to make housing more affordable.; how government fails to deliver when it promises to provide "affordable housing". Valdez says the Seattle City Council is preparing a tree ordinance that will make it tougher for developing more dense housing that would increase supply and begin to moderate prices. Valdez asks "wait a minute. Is this actually going to solve the problem (of affordable housing)?" What Valdez would do if he were advising Gov. Inslee (spoiler alert: it takes 5 years to get a housing development plan off the ground in Seattle).
