District 3 Regional Bond community listening session

Next date: Thursday, September 19, 2024 | 01:00 PM to 03:30 PM

Please join Supervisor Tam on October 19 at 6:00 p.m. to learn and share your thoughts about a possible $10 to $20 billion Bay Area-wide affordable housing bond that is being proposed for the November 2024 ballot. The intent of this meeting is to educate the general public about the need for more resources in the region. We are not trying to persuade attendees to take a position on the ballot.

If approved by the voters, the regional bond will provide billions of dollars for the construction of an estimated 45,000 affordable homes, serving over 500,000 residents over the coming decades. This measure will also raise billions for preservation of existing affordable housing and ensure protection for at-risk tenants. General obligation bonds are funded through property taxes, so a $10 billion bond would place a tax of $10.26 on $100,000 in assessed value—or about $100 per year for a million-dollar home.

The Alameda County Board of Supervisors District offices are partnering with the County Housing and Community Development Department on public information and input sessions.

The District 3 community meeting is on October 19 at 6:00 p.m. in the Community Meeting Room of the San Leandro Library at 300 Estudillo Avenue in San Leandro and will also be able to be viewed online.
