Polancos are named after Assemblymember Richard Polanco, who wrote a 1992 farmworker housing bill. Although few farmers used it to house their employees, farmworkers came up with a way to use the bill themselves to establish communities. 12/

The state requires cities to zone for new homes, using the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (#RHNA) process. #AB3040 from @DavidChiu encourages cities to rezone single family houses to allow duplexes/triplexes/fourplexes, by allowing it to count towards meeting RHNA goals. 17/

Presumably any parcel has some probability of being redeveloped in a time period given a current use, current zoning, and current market... and I think that probability is generally relatively low for any given RHNA cycle...
