The bill would require cities plan for potentially hundreds of thousands of extremely low-income homes.
Governor of California Gavin Newsom speaks during a press conference on Wednesday, Jan. 3, 2023, at the Los Angeles General Medical Center to urge support for Proposition 1 on the March 5, 2024 ballot. The proposition would overhaul California’s mental health funding system, and a $6.4 billion bond will expand access for hundreds of thousands of Californians, fund substance abuse treatment, and help get those suffering from mental health crises off the streets and into care.
“This new approach will require locals to better account for the needs of the lowest-income households and people experiencing homelessness in their long-term housing plans,” Newsom said in a statement. In Santa Clara County, 50% of the typical annual income is $96,000 for a single person, according to the state housing department. If the bill went into effect today, the county’s lowest affordability level would be for those earning between $0 and $19,050.
