It would depend on which cities actually try to meet their housing allocation - RHNA - and which try the same sort of bad faith stuff that Davis did. San Francisco is a very likely candidate and some of the richer suburbs - San Mateo, Palo Alto, Orinda - but it’s still very early in the process.
(The submissions are staggered across the state; the Bay Area’s deadline is later than Yolo County’s.)
