Petition updateSupport the development of workforce housing in Santa Barbara County!Proposed projects, with lower or no affordable units
Sunita BeallSanta Barbara, CA, United States
29 Mar 2023

These projects are being proposed, and note that the percentage of affordable units is much lower, if not absent. Projects, if they would like to boost the density, can agree to add affordable units. Some are at the bare minimum required. If city officials were to counter with a request for more affordable units, 20-30%, with funding incentives, this would be healthier. In an ideal situation, there would be more projects with 100% affordable units, adding to the general inventory.
