The °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ, Davis, released the following statement today (Sept. 28) regarding a lawsuit in connection with the °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ West Village Expansion:
We are perplexed and profoundly disappointed by AFSCME’s California Environmental Quality Act lawsuit related to the °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ Long Range Development Plan. We have previously made a series of generous offers to AFSCME that would have benefited °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ’ represented service workers and enabled °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ’ housing projects to move forward. Despite agreement that more student housing is a benefit to all, AFSCME’s suit will likely prevent °ÅÀÖÊÓƵ from building affordable student housing in the near term.
