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!

With 2020 (finally) coming to a close, we’re now just a few weeks away from having a transit-friendly administration in the White House. Streets for People is kicking off 2021 with an opportunity to hear from Transportation for America on what this might mean for transit:

– What’s the outlook for federal funding in 2021 and beyond?

– How does federal policy influence local transit, and what can the new administration change, even if Democrats don’t win the Senate?

– What can we expect from Pete Buttegieg as Secretary of Transportation?

– What can advocates do to help ensure federal funding goes to sustainable transit and not just to cars?

Join us to learn about these questions and more!
