17. Success Stories
Trevor and Kimberly bought their first home in the San Francisco Bay Area for over $1.3 Mil. Mortgage and real estate taxes totalled
$6,100 per month, taking a significant bite out of their combined salary. The 680 SF ADU, was added in 3 months (from start of permit
to completion), creating an additional $1,650 income shaving off 10 years from their 30 year mortgage.
Oscar and Nancy are 58 years old with 12 years remaining in their mortgage. Oscar was laid off and could no longer afford the $1,600
monthly payment. They pulled $60k from a reverse mortgage, built a 480 SF ADU in the backyard (a part they were hardly ever using)
and rented it for $1950 per month, easily covering their mortgage cost and paid down the reverse mortgage with the rest.
Adrian was an 76 year old living had a two story home. Navigating the stairs was painful on his knees, not to mention the house too
big to maintain. Adrian set up a 800 square foot, single story ADU in the backyard for $105k, paid for through an equity loan. Rented
the main house to a young tech couple for $3,900 per mo. After paying $550 for the equity loan, $1500 for a day time caretaker, he was
left with a positive cash flow of $1850.
20. Affordable housing - What is it & Why ?
Affordable housing is housing which is deemed affordable to those with a median household income or
below as rated by the national government or a local government by a recognized housing affordability
index
Families who pay more than 30 percent of their income for housing are considered cost burdened and
may have difficulty affording necessities such as food, clothing, transportation and medical care. An
estimated 12 million renter and homeowner households now pay more than 50 percent of their annual
incomes for housing. A family with one full-time worker earning the minimum wage cannot afford the local
fair-market rent for a two-bedroom apartment anywhere in the United States

34. 11% of students in 2 year colleges are Homeless
43,000 surveyed from 66 different colleges and universities in 20 states and DC
1 in 5 homeless during the previous 12 months
40,000 surveyed at 57 CA community colleges
NationallyCalifornia
35. California Assembly Bill AB 302
Requires a community college campus that has parking facilities on campus to grant overnight access
to those facilities, on or before July 1, 2020, to any homeless student who is enrolled in coursework,
has paid any enrollment fees that have not been waived, and is in good standing with the community
college for the purpose of sleeping in the student’s vehicle overnight.
The bill would require the governing board of the community college district to determine a plan of
action to implement this requirement
AB 1995 (Williams, 2016), already requires community college districts to provide access to shower
facilities for their homeless students.
“The harsh reality is that students are already sleeping in their vehicles. When we do not provide a
safe place for students to sleep, we force them into the shadows where they are most vulnerable. The
long term solution is to build more housing, but while we work to make that a reality, AB 302 is a step
that we can take now to ensure that homeless students have a safe place to sleep at night.”
36. Opposition to AB 302
1) “Security: increased workload to protect students and facilities after classes have concluded. We are not staffed to provide 24/7
security on our college campuses to persons sleeping in cars.”
2) “Verification: verifying who are students and who are not students will require the Colleges to pay for the additional time absorbed
by this task.”
3) “Custodial: there will be increased costs to hire cleaning crews to clean the parking lot and remove trash before students enter the
lot for morning classes.”
4) “Restrooms: the bill requires accessible restrooms. The colleges will incur additional utility, maintenance and monitoring costs for
these facilities.”
5) “Liability: who is responsible for crimes, injury to homeless students, and medical emergencies? Even with a waiver, colleges will
face the threat of lawsuits for persons injured in their parking lots during the evening hours.”
6) “Mandate cost claims are never fully reimbursed: Mandates are reimbursed only after costs are incurred and often times do not
reflect the actual costs incurred in these activities.”
7) “Diversion of Proposition 98 funds from education: The increased costs and insufficient reimbursement of mandated claims
means that Proposition 98 funds are being diverted from instruction and the classroom. This non-education program should not be
funded by Proposition 98 funds.”
