EVERTON Protect Inclusionary Housing Ordinance
-ELONGS Sign if you support: It is of the utmost importance that the City of San Jose not eliminate affordable housing at the 30% AMI from the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. Meaning that folks who make 30% of the Average Median Income of $141K can
find apartments at their income level. Eliminating Very Low and Extremely Low income affordable housing construction
requirements within the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance would disproportionately negatively impact the Black community specifically in San Jose. Whereas, Black residents average median wealth is $24K and White residents it is $188K.

Whereas, the Black population represents 2.2% of the city residents yet 19% of those who are unhoused. Furthermore, segregation and redlining still persist in San Jose. Race exists still as a determining factor and predictor of life outcomes. On 11/8/2022, voters approved Measure amending the City
Charter in order to uplift the values and practices of racial and social equity, inclusion, and racial and social justice. Effective 5/14/2024 the City of San Jose enacted the Equity Values and Standards Policy RES2024-140. Under the section titled
Application it states: d. "Analyze how the program, polity, ordinance, or budget item might improve or worse racial and social equity." Consequences, of removing the ELl affordable housing requirement from the IHO include: increase in
homelessness for the poorest residents, poorer education outcomes, lack of opportunities and resources that would be provided in mixed income and higher resource areas. Due to persistent systemic racism in our society it is necessary for our government to provide protection and not be perpetrators of these injustices. The City of San Jose has a responsibility and needs to be held accountable to promote the wellbeing, safety, stability of its residents particularly those most oppressed.

Let's not forget the purpose of the Inclusionary Housing in direct response to Exclusionary Zoning practices. Due to wealthy White homeowners not wanting People of Color or Poor people to live in their neighborhood. Racial and Class diversity is important in fostering a community that learns, siphoning of our rights and resources and attempts to devalue Black, Latin(e/x), Asian, and Indigenous people, immigrants, poor people, people with disabilities, neurodivergence, and LTQIA+ people it is critically important that at the local City level you help protect our resources and rights so we can have equity and continue to advance. Thank You!

EVERTON Protect Inclusionary Housing Ordinance
-ELONGS Sign if you support: It is of the utmost importance that the City of San Jose not eliminate affordable housing at the 30% AMI from the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. Meaning that folks who make 30% of the Average Median Income of $141K can
find apartments at their income level. Eliminating Very Low and Extremely Low income affordable housing construction
requirements within the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance would disproportionately negatively impact the Black community specifically in San Jose. Whereas, Black residents average median wealth is $24K and White residents it is $188K.

EVERTON Protect Inclusionary Housing Ordinance
-ELONGS Sign if you support: It is of the utmost importance that the City of San Jose not eliminate affordable housing at the 30% AMI from the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. Meaning that folks who make 30% of the Average Median Income of $141K can
find apartments at their income level. Eliminating Very Low and Extremely Low income affordable housing construction
requirements within the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance would disproportionately negatively impact the Black community specifically in San Jose. Whereas, Black residents average median wealth is $24K and White residents it is $188K.

Let's not forget the purpose of the Inclusionary Housing in direct response to Exclusionary Zoning practices. Due to wealthy White homeowners not wanting People of Color or Poor people to live in their neighborhood. Racial and Class diversity is important in fostering a community that learns, siphoning of our rights and resources and attempts to devalue Black, Latin(e/x), Asian, and Indigenous people, immigrants, poor people, people with disabilities, neurodivergence, and LGBTQIA+ people it is critically important that at the local City level you help protect our resources and rights so we can have equity and continue to advance.
