California's Tiny Home Initiative for Homeless Faces Major Delays

Gov. Newsom's promise of 1,200 tiny homes remains unfulfilled over a year later, with bureaucratic hurdles and funding issues stalling progress.

Only 150 of the promised 1,200 tiny homes have been purchased, with none yet occupied.
State and local government disputes over funding and site locations have caused significant delays.
Vendors report no orders despite state contracts, citing lack of funds and promotional support.
San Jose and Sacramento show some progress, but Los Angeles and San Diego lag behind.
Local governments struggle with finding suitable sites and securing necessary approvals.
