#SB50 is not the affordable housing answer.
SB50 is co-sponsored by Affordable Housing Advocates @NPHANC because they believe it will make it easier to build more affordable housing in more places across the state.
We also need increased funding and streamlined approvals to get more affordable housing built asap!

But that organization was never presented with this economic problem; they would agree. The bill needs a simple adjustment to guarantee the construction of affordable housing. No reason not to do it. Sorry. Just do it.

The bill already has inclusionary housing requirements, so all the new market rate housing will also generate new subsidized affordable housing. I'm not sure I'm understanding your points here. Want to chat in person, phone or email?

And you say “increased funding” which tells me you don’t understand what TIF is or how to calculate it; you are just arguing for arguments sake. We have too many homeless people to continue that dynamic. Enough is enough.

There are already impact fees and all the other taxes we collect on new market rate housing. Why do you think TIFs are necessary? This isn't an argument that's being made widely, so genuinely curious.
