Arcata is a town of renters, many of whom pay half or more of their monthly income in rent. Many students and low-income folks end up homeless due to the lack of housing, especially affordable housing. What percentage of housing would you set aside for low-income housing in the Housing Strategic Plan? What about for moderate and market rate housing? Do you think that having a greater percentage of low-income housing is tied to housing equity? Why or why not?

Please see my response to “Housing Equity” as it is the same question as Affordable Housing (verbatim).  Thank you Lisa for asking these very important issues surrounding affordable and equitable housing.
