Impact analysis
Taxpayers could foot the bill for legal defense and state penalties, while delays could slow housing construction and related economic activity.
State housing regulators and housing advocates could gain stronger enforcement leverage, and developers may benefit if the suit forces Calexico to approve more housing.
Calexico residents and local officials could face higher costs and less say over local growth, and people needing housing may wait longer if the dispute stalls projects.
