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!

Did you know that it’s literally impossible to afford an average 2-bedroom apartment on minimum wage in most of the country’s major cities? In these cities, you’d have to work more than 20 hours a DAY to make rent. The math simply is not mathin’.

Join us next Friday, August 19th at 12-1pm PT to break down why our cities are this ridiculously unaffordable. We’ll give an overview of the affordability crisis, how housing and labor conditions have shaped our current mess, and how we can fix it.
