The details on where the funding will come from to build, maintain and staff public housing are too vague. Will property tax payers, and renters who pay property taxes indirectly via rent, carry the costs? A loss of school funding will definitely be felt by all public school students and families. At the same time, SSFUSD has a $436 million school bond measure also on the November 2022 ballot, which would increase property taxes if passed. Think about the burden you are asking SSF residents to carry. Don't try to push something though for your own political gain and just so you can have this achievement. Don't treat SSF as a social experiment.
