Lawsuits filed under the California Environmental Quality Act are holding up the construction of roughly 4,100 beds for students in the University of California system, according to a new report from the UC Office of the President. CEQA litigation has become a significant obstacle to building student housing for the university system, with seven student housing projects facing challenges since 2018, according to the report. The document is slated to go before several UC Board of Regents committees March 15.
