RE: Support for Proposed Residential Project @ 40 Airport Boulevard Dear City Council Members:
YIMBY Action is pleased to support the proposed residential project at 40 Airport Boulevard. This project would replace an outdated and underutilized warehouse building to 292 apartment units including 44 affordable units. This project will help address our citywide housing shortage and in particular, our need for more homes in urban communities like South San Francisco with close proximity to downtown, the Caltrain station and the Oyster Point employment hub.
YIMBY Action is a network of pro-housing activists fighting for more inclusive housing policies. Our vision is an integrated society where every person has access to a safe, affordable home near jobs, services, and opportunity.

Reg CC Item # 6
The Bay Area’s severe housing shortage is causing skyrocketing homelessness and poverty, crippling our economy, and leading to debilitating commutes that exacerbate our global climate crisis. These impacts fall disproportionately on our city’s low-income workers and families, and disproportionately deny communities of color access to opportunity. If we strive to be a society that advances racial and class justice, we must do more to ensure abundant housing in our region. This project will help address the housing shortage and ensure a welcoming Bay Area where everyone can thrive.
Best regards,
Alex Melendrez,
