Housing for the Rest of Us

Oxford Plaza, energy efficient affordable housing built in 2009 at a comfortable scale. Since 2009, almost no affordable housing has been built, for lack of committed funding for the Berkeley Housing Trust Fund — Since 2009 almost no affordable housing has been built. Oxford Plaza was the last major project.

There is a solution to the Affordable Housing Crisis

Berkeley could build at least 100 units of affordable housing a year, if we raise funds for the Housing Trust Fund. Hear about practical solutions that will raise the money needed. Prepare for the 2016 Election by making plans to elect a mayor, city council members, and rent board commissioners who will represent all of us, not just the 1%. Speakers include:

Max Anderson ‐ Berkeley City Councilmember District 3 (South Berkeley)
Ben Bartlett ‐ Berkeley Planning Commissioner and District 3 City Council candidate
Kate Harrison, Berkeley Progressive Alliance and Wellstone Democratic Renewal Club
