California Housing Lobbyists Low Income Renters Affordable Housing Tenant Rights

Saturday, September 6, 2008

Final Week

Legislators have stopped talking about attending the Democratic convention that officially begins Monday. No bills are being sent to the Governor—his promise to veto any bill sent before a budget is approved still stands. Hundreds of bills are sitting in the two chambers, waiting.

Among them is AB 2494 (Caballero), which after two years of endless negotiations,was amended Monday to place the $200 million Housing-Related Parks program at HCD. The department would distribute park grants to jurisdictions that can document housing starts for housing restricted and affordable to very low or low income households. The grants are based upon number of bedrooms, and can be for rental, ownership and SROs.
