    Preference should be given to workers in the city given the housing crisis.

    I think you won't find anyone disagreeing with that policy.

    Build dedicated social housing blocks out by the airport. Stick them there.

    What about someone who is long-term unemployed but their spouse or children who also live in the house hold down full time employment?

    Should have been more specific. It applies to long-term unemployed households.

    "Long-term", so they're probably not going to work anywhere.
