Briefing on increasing housing supply for special populations
Neighborhood and Housing Services Director Veronica Garcia briefed a task-force report recommending roughly 3,200 total new homes for four populations: veterans with VASH vouchers (near the medical center/transit), 500 homes for people with disabilities (blind/deaf), 2,400 age-restricted homes for older adults, and deeply affordable housing for LGBTQ+ youth, plus a justice-involved population category. Task force tri-chairs are Veronica Garcia, Pete Alanis, and Mark Carmona. $9 million from the 2022 housing bond set aside for strategic land acquisition; ~$10 million remaining in competitive gap funding to be recommended to council in April. No vote taken; feedback only. Final report expected next month.
