Getting Inclusionary Housing Right

JOIN US VIRTUALLY ON FRIDAY, OCTOBER 24TH 12PM

Cities across Santa Clara County are considering this powerful tool to build more new affordable homes without subsidy.

But done wrong it can fall short, or even stop the development of new homes in its tracks. Learn how it works, and how to get it right!

Many of our local cities are joining forces right now in a shared nexus study, the wonky and in-depth analysis that assesses the feasibility of local residential development and the potential for developers of market-rate housing to add a share of affordable homes to their buildings.

If cities require too few affordable homes or affordability that’s too shallow, they leave public benefits on the table. Too much, and developers can’t build any housing at all.

Come hear about local cities that are getting it right: successfully using inclusionary housing policies to achieve mixed-income communities, generate funding to subsidize deeper levels of affordability, and gain valuable land for affordable homes!

2330 Monroe is a mixed-income, mixed-ability housing development proposed by Freebird Development. It includes 65 affordable homes for people earning between 25% and 100% of the area median income. 25% of the homes will be designed for adults with developmental disabilities, providing an affordable way for an underserved segment of our population to live independently.

The final city council approval is currently scheduled for January 28th.  The meeting will be held at the City Council Chambers at 1500 Warburton Avenue, Santa Clara.

We urge supporters of affordable housing and housing for people with disabilities to show up and express your support for 2330 Monroe!

The agenda for the meeting will be posted by the Friday before the meeting on the City of Santa Clara site.
