With affordable housing, "we're talking about the real need, for real people, and the public policies we enact, to benefit the residents of this City," said Fernando Martí to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors Land Use Committee.
CCHO Op Ed: We must fight back against accelerated gentrification in core urban communities while also advocating overall increased housing development across more of the Bay Area’s 101 cities.

CCHO Op Ed: Opening opportunities in high-resource areas and combatting urban displacement will be key in giving Bay Area residents the opportunity to choose their community based on their needs, preferences, and access to resources.

The BOS will take its second and final vote on the Housing Inventory Legislation next week after UNANIMOUSLY adopting the legislation this week. The Housing Inventory will allow San Francisco to track vacant units and create more equitable housing policies https://t.co/dKQbAYfshK
The UNANIMOUSLY passed Housing Inventory Legislation is an important ‘information tool’ about citywide housing supply and will be very valuable in informing better policies to increase the housing supply and address specific gaps in housing affordability. https://t.co/hUmpuX0TvZ
The BOS just UNANIMOUSLY adopted the Rental Housing Inventory legislation!! San Francisco can do better to meet its affordable housing needs, and this housing supply database is critical to the effective housing policy we need. More about it here: https://t.co/mctDe8gu06
In this crisis, we need solutions that keep people in their homes. Good solutions start with good information. Our city can start by passing the Housing Inventory legislation this week.

The new HUD secretary will be essential in combating housing unaffordability in cities like San Francisco, where people are struggling with affordable housing shortages and resident displacement pressures.

While CA State Government has been criticized for its handling of the housing crisis, SF continues to take progressive steps to produce and protect affordable housing. "Our problem is much more intense [in SF], but our abilities are also much more advanced”https://t.co/9h4aCy7N3H
We are cautiously optimistic that President-elect Biden will have really smart people around him who are housing advocates. Biden's selection of a HUD secretary will shape how the administration addresses housing affordability on the ground locally.
