In order to alleviate the immediate economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on housing insecurity, while addressing conditions that contributed to poor public health and economic outcomes, namely concentrated areas with limited economic opportunity and inadequate or poor-quality housing, the City desires to increase the supply of affordable high-quality housing units, with an emphasis on its senior, workforce, and homelessness populations.
