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!

Staff is scheduled to return to the City Council on June 10, 2019 to respond to Council direction given at the March 11, 2019 Ventura Town Hall.

The North Ventura Coordinated Area Plan (NVCAP) represents a significant opportunity to plan for a walkable, mixed-use neighborhood. This meeting will also help inform the next steps in the NVCAP process, including the scheduling of Working Group and Community Workshop meetings.  The meeting agenda will be posted here approximately 11 days before the meeting.
