Facing pressure from even some members of her own party, Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs is now offering up her own plan to override some city regulations to allow for more “starter homes.’’
Her plan is in some ways more restrictive than what the Senate just approved a week ago, applying to more cities.
But it also comes with a provision that’s not in the Senate version: A requirement that a certain percentage of these new — and, presumably, more affordable — homes be reserved for Arizonans who intend to live there versus investors looking for a bargain.
