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!

While the pandemic still has many of us avoiding in-person gatherings, we can still come together online to learn, share, and find out how to get involved to make a difference. 

This online Action Meeting is for Housing Ready Communities partners, supporters, individual housing and homelessness advocates, and all Santa Clara County neighbors interested in getting involved in the movement to prevent and end homelessness.

The meeting agenda will include time to share information about supportive and deeply affordable housing development progress and proposals, important policy reform campaigns, and other opportunities to take action and get involved.

Have a recommendation for the agenda? Contact us at action@housingready.org or sign up for one of our open office hours time slots. We look forward to hearing from you!

Registration required. Capacity limited. 

Recurring meeting: As an organizing meeting and a regular opportunity for us all to come together, this Action Meeting will be held the second Wednesday of every other month (e.g. May, July, September, November, etc.). So that we can get to know each other, learn and share together, and continue to grow the movement, we invite you to join us next time too. Please bring a friend too!
