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!

We’re two months into 2021 and activity in the California State Capitol is ramping up. Bills have been introduced and committee hearings on the state budget are well underway. What will this all mean for the state? Join us for a discussion with key elected leaders — all influential committee chairs and proud members of the Bay Area Caucus — about the prospects and priorities for coming out of this legislative session. We’ll ask about the key housing legislation they’re hoping to get passed this year, get their perspectives on Governor Newsom’s proposed budget and discuss other timely topics.

Co-presented by Bay Area Housing Action Coalition (BayHAC).
