Housing for the Rest of Us
Introducing the Berkeley Progressive Alliance and their Affordable Housing Platform
Sunday, March 6th, 2 to 4:30 pm
South Berkeley Senior Center, 2939 Ellis Street at Ashby
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
Solve the Affordable Housing Crisis:
Berkeley could build a hundred 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 ‐ member, Berkeley Planning Commission and District 3 City Council candidate
- Kate Harrison, Berkeley Progressive Alliance and National State Politics chair of the Wellstone Democratic Renewal Club
