The funds would go toward affordable housing construction for San Franciscans with low-income, including new senior and workforce housing. The city would also rehab units to preserve existing affordable housing and prioritize low-income housing for households experiencing street, domestic or sexual violence. It requires a two-thirds vote to pass.

Yes Argument

It would provide essential housing for working families, seniors on fixed incomes and people who want to live and work in the city. It would also help the city meet its state-mandated requirement to build more than 46,000 affordable housing units by 2031. Funding oversight is included, with annual independent audits and spending reviews to ensure funds are spent as promised. The measure would likely not include a property tax hike.

No Argument

Proposition A would change the character of every neighborhood and bulldoze the West Side. For a decade, taxpayers have poured billions of dollars into affordable housing bonds with little result. In 2022, the Mayor’s Office of Housing and Community Development ended the year with $537 million in excess funds. It doesn’t need the money. Proposition A is giving in to the state’s demand for more housing. It could mean a property tax hike for homeowners.
