On Tuesday, the county Board of Supervisors approved spending up to $17.4 million to purchase five properties slated for the new developments.
Santa Clara County is finalizing plans to build three new affordable housing projects in San Jose to add more than 300 desperately needed apartments for low-income and homeless residents.
The money for the projects comes from Measure A, a $950 million affordable housing bond approved by voters in 2016. In total, up to $53.8 million in Measure A funds will go toward the developments, already approved by local officials, to help cover the land purchases and building costs. So far, the 10-year housing bond, funded by property taxes, has supported nearly 4,000 units and appears on track to meet its goal of helping build or preserve roughly 4,800 affordable homes by 2026.
