did you know these housing facts? • between 2006 and 2008
less than 1000 of the 7000 units added in downtown were affordable
• in 2006 50% of all units were affordable. in 2008 only 26.5% were affordable
![Page 79: AIA SDAT Preliminary Report](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554dee0eb4c905f6598b4d7f/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)

did you know these housing facts?
• in 2006, 67% of all downtown residents commuted by car and only 11% by public transit
• in 2008, 33% commuted by car and 33% by public transit.

• The composition of downtown’s residents is changing rapidly. What do you want it to become? To be sustainable we think you should support:
a. affordable housing to ensure a housing mix that embraces everyone
b. housing options that reflect the new, transit-friendly population
did you know these housing facts?

how can you make moderate income housing happen?
Find ways to reduce costs for developers by eliminating parking requirements
– 0 parking for downtown units– shared parking options such as
- overnight parking in garages that are empty at night
- meter permits for downtown residents- reduced rate parking in parking
garages for residents by eliminating taxes for garage operators
![Page 82: AIA SDAT Preliminary Report](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052505/554dee0eb4c905f6598b4d7f/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Los Angeles SDAT
how can you make moderate income housing happen?
Explore public/private partnerships that provide incentives to developers AND residents
– reduced interest rate mortgages & deferred principal payments to developers
– second mortgages for median income buyers at 0% interest
– hand money assistance– special incentives for tenants with no vehicle

• The CRA knows how to create public/private partnership. The question is, who is driving the vision for housing mix downtown.

broadway will be different soon
we heard that:• 50% of the retail tenants want to break
their lease.• asking rents have dropped to $1.50 per
s.f. with no appetite from potential tenants.
• businesses are closing at the rate of one a week.
• neighborhood efforts are focussed on an existing condition that is no longer tenable. Broadway is changing rapidly.
• Take control before it’s gone

rethink the strategy
• instead of chasing elusive tenants
• create a land bank• buy properties and mothball them
until the economy turns around• find developers willing to tackle
small vacant upper floor projects • build artist housing, startup
commercial space, less amenities but more historic charm

•instead of chasing elusive tenants•use broadway to fulfill some the moderate income housing supply •don’t require parking•seek a population that wants to live without a vehicle•use broadway for a demonstration bike lane project•be flexible - transitional uses may work

• Education, vocational training , work release, and correctional industry programs are associated with increased attachment to employment and lower rates of re-offending.
• Substance abuse treatment and cognitive based programs reduce recidivism
• Immediate attachment to employment upon release reduces recidivism
• Connection to a mentor or positive support network increases attachment to work
• A “One Stop” bundling of services and supports increases job attachment and retention.
