According to this report the County of Kern has an expected growth rate of 0.25% per year over the next 38 years but the City of Tehachapi feels their growth rate should be 2.3% per year.
"On January 7, 2021, the City responded to the same e-mail chain on which it now relies, with an analysis the City claimed supported its contention that a 2.3% growth rate was reasonable."

Seems like somebody either isn't pulling their fair share (of the required housing growth rates) or somebody is merely trying to build their tax base.

" According to the draft report, the population of the Kern region is expected to reach approximately 975,000 by 2050, a significant increase from its current population of 908,000 in 2022. Similarly, the number of households is projected to rise from 285,903 in 2022 to approximately 348,000 in 2050."
=========================================
First, 2050 is 28 years from 2022, not 38, Einstein.

Second, I don't know who wrote that piece in the Tehachapi news, but if you had bothered to actually read the report, it states that they expect household growth in the NEXT 8 YEARS to be 20% or more.

Read the report before embarrassing yourself further.
