"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

That’s probably an undercount because Proposition 13, California’s landmark property tax law from the 1970s, has held down the reported value of a lot of Stanford’s properties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You can drive for miles and still be on Stanford land.

He joined an exclusive coterie of ultra-wealthy people and owned both a mansion on Nob Hill in San Francisco and a country estate south of the city. He grew grapes and raised horses on a stretch of land that grew to rival the rancheras of the Spanish colonial era.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He might have faded into history if not for a tragedy that struck the family in 1884 when his 15-year-old son, Leland Jr., died of typhoid fever while touring Italy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With no heir to pass on all their wealth to, the grief-stricken parents decided to launch a university.

She’s the \u003ca href=\"https://www.collegeterrace.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">College Terrace Residents Association’s\u003c/a> “Stanford observer.” She argues that Stanford’s choice to absorb properties off-campus to secure housing for its employees is drying up the pool of available housing for others in the community.

Probably most of Silicon Valley wouldn’t exist without Stanford,” Graves admits. “On the other hand, there are definite downsides.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those downsides are at the center of a contentious battle with Santa Clara County supervisors.

The money would be \u003ca href=\"https://sfelections.sfgov.org/sites/default/files/Documents/candidates/Nov2019_AffordableHousingBond_Legislative%20Digest.pdf\">committed in these ways\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>$220 million to buy, rehabilitate and build low-income housing\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>$150 million for repairing and rebuilding public housing\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>$150 million to buy and build senior housing\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>$60 million to buy, rehabilitate and preserve middle-income housing\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>$20 million to support educator housing\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>This bond is nearly double the size of the 2015 low-and-middle income housing bond measure backed by then-Mayor Ed Lee. \u003ca href=\"https://sfelections.org/results/20151103/\">Voters green-lit\u003c/a> that $310 million bond, which has created about 1,500 units, according to Malcom Yeung, campaign committee co-chair for this year’s Proposition A.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before that, San Francisco hadn’t passed an affordable housing bond since 1996, when former mayor Willie Brown pushed for a \u003ca href=\"https://www.spur.org/publications/spur-report/2002-08-02/san-francisco-s-affordable-housing-bond\">$100 million measure\u003c/a>. Out of that money, $15 million was earmarked for down payment assistance loans for first-time home buyers; the rest was for the renovation and construction of very-low-income housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For years, the city never really considered affordable housing to be infrastructure and as a result never regularly programmed it into the capital planning cycle,” Yeung said. “Hopefully by having a housing bond every five years or so, we are going to be regularly addressing the affordability needs, as opposed to waiting 20 years.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition A has support from Mayor London Breed and the Board of Supervisors as well as some state politicians. Salesforce and the Facebook-affiliated Chan Zuckerberg Initiative have helped financed the bond campaign. There’s no major opposition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition A needs two-thirds to pass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Proposition E\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Proposition E, meanwhile, needs a simple majority to pass. And if you’re having trouble keeping the two straight, remember that the “E” stands for educator housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A ‘yes’ vote on Proposition E would change the city’s planning code to allow housing projects, specifically for educators, to be built on publicly-owned land. It would also relax some zoning requirements and expedite the city’s approval process for those projects. Park land is not included, and lots must be 10,000 square feet or bigger to qualify.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Educators working for San Francisco Unified School District — including teachers, staff, teaching assistants and aides — as well as City College educators would be eligible for the new housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The onus ultimately falls on San Francisco Unified and City College to provide funding for the construction of new educator housing. If Proposition A passes, the city would chip in $20 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11768639,news_11740509 label='Hanging on to Teachers']Susan Solomon, president of the United Educators of San Francisco, said teachers here face unprecedented affordability challenges that make it hard to stay in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For many of them, especially newer teachers, they are also paying off their student loans,” she said. “So, what it means for them is that they are living with many roommates, or tiny apartments or commuting from very far away.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The profession has a national attrition rate of about 8 percent annually, \u003ca href=\"https://learningpolicyinstitute.org/sites/default/files/product-files/Teacher_Turnover_REPORT.pdf\">according to 2017 study by the Learning Policy Institute\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Unified has a 10 percent attrition rate, \u003ca href=\"https://archive.sfusd.edu/en/assets/sfusd-staff/RFQ%20Educator%20Housing%20Development%20Final%203.1.2019.pdf\">according to a school district memo\u003c/a> from April that sought pitches from developers for potential housing projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The school district has identified a few lots that would be eligible for Proposition E development if it passes: One in the Inner Sunset, another in Laurel Heights and one in the Bayview neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district has already started working with the Mayor’s Office of Housing and Community Development on \u003ca href=\"https://sfmohcd.org/francis-scott-key-annex\">a housing project planned for the Francis Scott Key Annex\u003c/a> in the Outer Sunset. It is expected to have more than 100 new one-to-three bedroom apartments for teachers and classroom aides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the potential impacts could reach further because Proposition E would expedite and relax zoning rules for housing built on publicly-owned land if it is 100-percent affordable and meets the 10,000-square foot requirement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That could be a big deal for building anywhere in the city, said Peter Cohen, co-director of the Council of Community Housing Organizations, which is a big supporter of both ballot measures. Of course, the city would have to first acquire the land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We say that Prop. A and E are complementary measures,” Cohen said. “They both address affordable housing developers’ two biggest obstacles: the funding and the land.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Out of that money, $15 million was earmarked for down payment assistance loans for first-time home buyers; the rest was for the renovation and construction of very-low-income housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For years, the city never really considered affordable housing to be infrastructure and as a result never regularly programmed it into the capital planning cycle,” Yeung said. “Hopefully by having a housing bond every five years or so, we are going to be regularly addressing the affordability needs, as opposed to waiting 20 years.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition A has support from Mayor London Breed and the Board of Supervisors as well as some state politicians. Salesforce and the Facebook-affiliated Chan Zuckerberg Initiative have helped financed the bond campaign.

The 74,000 signatures collected last week marked a more than 60% increase over the previous week. \u003ccite>(Anne Wernikoff for CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But in the interim months until the law kicks in, tenant rights groups are scrambling to combat what they say is a wave of landlords exploiting a temporary loophole that allows them to get rid of tenants now. That way they can raise rents beyond the rent cap, avoid having to pay any relocation help to displaced tenants, and simply remove tenants they view as problems without going through additional legal hurdles introduced by the new law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s unclear whether the new owners of the Los Banos apartment complex were motivated by the new law; they did not return multiple messages seeking comment left with the complex manager and a real estate agent involved in the property sale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eviction reports are coming in elsewhere, too. “My office alone saw more than 40 separate buildings with no-cause (eviction) notices in the last three weeks,” said Elena Popp, co-founder of the Eviction Defense Network, which provides tenant legal services in Los Angeles County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her organization typically sees four or five mass evictions a week, she said, but since a prominent attorney in Southern California was \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2019-10-07/california-landlords-respond-to-rent-caps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">quoted in the Los Angeles Times\u003c/a> advising property owners to evict tenants as soon as possible, those numbers have soared.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Los Angeles City Council passed a temporary eviction freeze Tuesday to prevent landlords from trying to skirt the new state law. Tenant groups are urging other localities to enact similar measures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"eviction, housing\" label=\"More Related Stories.\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lacking reliable, timely eviction data, neither policymakers nor renters groups know precisely how many more evictions are occurring ahead of the law taking effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Landlord groups and some supporters of the law argue that the vast majority of landlords aren’t trying to evade it, and that the industry shouldn’t be demonized for the rogue actions of what they say are a few.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While I wish we could wave a magic wand when it comes to what owners are doing now, I think we have seen some attorneys outside of (our organization) give advice about terminating tenancies to avoid the application of (the law),” said Debra Carlton, vice president of public affairs for the California Apartment Association. “And we have commented that this is unconscionable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But others in the industry expect an uptick in evictions before January 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It somewhat reminds me of the Obama administration and everything they were trying to do to restrict guns,” said Steve Hrdlicka, a lawyer who specializes in evictions and debt collection in the Central Valley. “And people who would not have normally thought about buying a weapon thought this right is being taken away from me — and gun sales skyrocketed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Landlords Fear More Cumbersome Evictions\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In California now, landlords can evict tenants at the end of their lease without specifying any reason, as long as they give advance notice of 60 days, or 30 days if the tenant has lived there less than a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Come January, landlords can legally remove renters from their property only if they have a “just cause” — such as if renters violate the terms of a lease, fail to pay rent or cause a nuisance to neighbors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Canal Farm Gardens, every unit in the apartment complex is undergoing a major renovation, which qualifies as a circumstance under which even the new rules would allow “no-fault” evictions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you’re doing a renovation, it’s very costly,’ said Suzie Lucero, the apartment manager on the property for 25 years. “I think they’re worth the price they’re going for.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a key provision in the new law forces landlords to provide one month’s worth of rent as relocation help to those displaced by renovations or other “no-fault” evictions, such as when a landlord moves in with a family member. That’s a major expenditure when evicting 30-plus units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jennifer Tran, a lawyer for Central California Legal Services, said no tenant that she’s been in contact with had been offered relocation assistance or had their last month of rent waived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tenant groups contend that many landlords are simply profit-maximizing: evicting tenants who are paying rents below what the market can bear while they still can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hrdlicka, the Central Valley landlord lawyer, said that while he’s heard some stories of landlords pursuing that strategy, he doesn’t believe the practice is widespread. But he acknowledged that he has advised some clients to initiate evictions now, before they might have to prove a tenant’s bad behavior in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The bottom line is that a very effective tool is being taken away from (landlords),” said Hrdlicka, who cautioned that his clients can no longer afford to take a wait-and-see approach with problematic tenants who could cause trouble down the road. “Landlords in my experience do not serve terminations for no reason. There’s always a reason.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Could Evictions Have Been Avoided?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Popp, the eviction defense attorney in Los Angeles, praised state lawmakers for passing the new law, which advocates call the most significant statewide tenant-protection legislation in decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she expressed frustration that more wasn’t done to stop what she says was eminently foreseeable: some landlords would try to get ahead of the law any way they could.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They should have just had this go into effect immediately, and then we wouldn’t have these emergency problems,” said Popp. “Did the state Legislature make this bill strong enough? Absolutely not. Did we need this bill? Absolutely yes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11782913\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11782913\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Canal Farm Gardens is a 59-unit apartment complex in Los Banos. Until two months ago, renters paid $750 per month for a two-bedroom apartment, they now pay $850. Renovated units will rent for nearly $1300 per month, pricing out many of the current tenants. \u003ccite>(Anne Wernikoff for CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Assemblyman David Chiu, theSan Francisco Democrat who was the bill’s lead author, said having the bill take effect immediately was neither politically nor practically realistic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Urgency measures” — state laws that go into effect as soon as the governor signs them — require a two-thirds vote in California’s Legislature. The Assembly approved Chiu’s bill with 48 votes, five shy of that supermajority threshold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This behavior of predatory no-fault evictions has been happening for decades with no transparency,” said Chiu. “And that’s exactly why we did this bill, and come January 1st, 8 million Californians will no longer be exploited in this way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new law does aim to block landlords from raising rents beyond the new cap before the new law takes effect: Landlords can still hike rents as much as they please before the new year, but if they exceed the cap, they’ll just have to reset them back to March 2019 levels once the new law kicks in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can’t legislate away every bad actor,” said Chiu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some landlord groups argue that the Legislature could have deterred some of the behavior happening now if it the new law allowed “banking” — allowing them to raise rents above the allowable annual increase if they didn’t raise them to the full cap the previous year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, Chiu’s office is counting down the days until November 2 — the last day it says landlords could legally issue 60-day eviction notices unaffected by the new law’s constraints.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A boon to 2020 rent control initiative?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Other cities may join Los Angeles in passing temporary eviction freezes, but renters shouldn’t look to the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked if the Newsom administration was planning any statewide emergency action to halt evictions, a spokesman for the governor said in an email:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These kinds of unfair evictions are exactly why California passes AB 1482 and the very situations it will protect against. Tenants have rights and access to legal services. They should contact local legal aid clinics if they believe they are being illegally or unfairly targeted or evicted.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One reason the rent-cap/just-eviction measure passed at all was the threat of a looming 2020 ballot initiative that would allow cities to impose tighter rent controls than what the new state law allows. The California Apartment Association, the largest interest group for major landlords in the Capitol, withdrew opposition to the bill at least partly so it could argue the 2020 initiative was no longer necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, amid reports of an eviction rush, the sponsor of that initiative said it’s already garnered more than the 700,000 signatures needed to place it on the November 2020 ballot — and that the 74,000 signatures collected last week marked a more than 60% increase over the previous week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Weinstein, president of the Los Angeles-based AIDS Healthcare Foundation was surprised the new law was proved so quickly it was not a solution to housing affordability. The foundation’s affiliated housing group Housing is a Human Right opposed the law, arguing a 5%-plus-inflation cap was too weak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Carlton, lobbyist for the California Apartment Association, says she doesn’t think anecdotal reports of eviction will matter: A previous version of that initiative, also sponsored by Weinstein, lost by nearly 20 points last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve got to find a better solution,” said Carlton. “It can’t just be about pointing the finger at these landlords, it’s got to be about finding the market balance with new construction.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at the Canal Farm Gardens in Los Banos, apartment manager Lucero says she’s seen a steady stream of applicants for the newly renovated apartments, with many prospective renters from the Bay Area expressing interest in units going for $1,295 a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Banos is about 80 miles southeast of San Jose, where the median two-bedroom \u003ca href=\"https://www.apartmentlist.com/rentonomics/rental-price-data/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rents for nearly $2,700\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The apartment complex owners did allow intake workers from various safety net agencies to spend a day trying to help relocate residents, many of whom are farmworkers or have other low-wage jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sargeez Teimoorshahi, program director at the social services nonprofit Turning Point, said that despite efforts to connect evicted residents with county funds for security deposits and extended motel stays, he expects some will be unable to find stable homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Unfortunately without available affordable housing, that will lead to some families becoming homeless,” said Teimoorshahi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

That’s a major expenditure when evicting 30-plus units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jennifer Tran, a lawyer for Central California Legal Services, said no tenant that she’s been in contact with had been offered relocation assistance or had their last month of rent waived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tenant groups contend that many landlords are simply profit-maximizing: evicting tenants who are paying rents below what the market can bear while they still can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hrdlicka, the Central Valley landlord lawyer, said that while he’s heard some stories of landlords pursuing that strategy, he doesn’t believe the practice is widespread. But he acknowledged that he has advised some clients to initiate evictions now, before they might have to prove a tenant’s bad behavior in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The bottom line is that a very effective tool is being taken away from (landlords),” said Hrdlicka, who cautioned that his clients can no longer afford to take a wait-and-see approach with problematic tenants who could cause trouble down the road. “Landlords in my experience do not serve terminations for no reason. There’s always a reason.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Could Evictions Have Been Avoided?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Popp, the eviction defense attorney in Los Angeles, praised state lawmakers for passing the new law, which advocates call the most significant statewide tenant-protection legislation in decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she expressed frustration that more wasn’t done to stop what she says was eminently foreseeable: some landlords would try to get ahead of the law any way they could.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They should have just had this go into effect immediately, and then we wouldn’t have these emergency problems,” said Popp. “Did the state Legislature make this bill strong enough? Absolutely not. Did we need this bill? Absolutely yes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11782913\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11782913\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS39808_EVICTION-RUSH-photo-3-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Canal Farm Gardens is a 59-unit apartment complex in Los Banos. Until two months ago, renters paid $750 per month for a two-bedroom apartment, they now pay $850. Renovated units will rent for nearly $1300 per month, pricing out many of the current tenants. \u003ccite>(Anne Wernikoff for CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Assemblyman David Chiu, theSan Francisco Democrat who was the bill’s lead author, said having the bill take effect immediately was neither politically nor practically realistic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Urgency measures” — state laws that go into effect as soon as the governor signs them — require a two-thirds vote in California’s Legislature. The Assembly approved Chiu’s bill with 48 votes, five shy of that supermajority threshold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This behavior of predatory no-fault evictions has been happening for decades with no transparency,” said Chiu. “And that’s exactly why we did this bill, and come January 1st, 8 million Californians will no longer be exploited in this way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new law does aim to block landlords from raising rents beyond the new cap before the new law takes effect: Landlords can still hike rents as much as they please before the new year, but if they exceed the cap, they’ll just have to reset them back to March 2019 levels once the new law kicks in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can’t legislate away every bad actor,” said Chiu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some landlord groups argue that the Legislature could have deterred some of the behavior happening now if it the new law allowed “banking” — allowing them to raise rents above the allowable annual increase if they didn’t raise them to the full cap the previous year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, Chiu’s office is counting down the days until November 2 — the last day it says landlords could legally issue 60-day eviction notices unaffected by the new law’s constraints.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A boon to 2020 rent control initiative?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Other cities may join Los Angeles in passing temporary eviction freezes, but renters shouldn’t look to the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked if the Newsom administration was planning any statewide emergency action to halt evictions, a spokesman for the governor said in an email:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These kinds of unfair evictions are exactly why California passes AB 1482 and the very situations it will protect against. Tenants have rights and access to legal services. They should contact local legal aid clinics if they believe they are being illegally or unfairly targeted or evicted.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One reason the rent-cap/just-eviction measure passed at all was the threat of a looming 2020 ballot initiative that would allow cities to impose tighter rent controls than what the new state law allows. The California Apartment Association, the largest interest group for major landlords in the Capitol, withdrew opposition to the bill at least partly so it could argue the 2020 initiative was no longer necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, amid reports of an eviction rush, the sponsor of that initiative said it’s already garnered more than the 700,000 signatures needed to place it on the November 2020 ballot — and that the 74,000 signatures collected last week marked a more than 60% increase over the previous week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Weinstein, president of the Los Angeles-based AIDS Healthcare Foundation was surprised the new law was proved so quickly it was not a solution to housing affordability. The foundation’s affiliated housing group Housing is a Human Right opposed the law, arguing a 5%-plus-inflation cap was too weak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Carlton, lobbyist for the California Apartment Association, says she doesn’t think anecdotal reports of eviction will matter: A previous version of that initiative, also sponsored by Weinstein, lost by nearly 20 points last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The numbers surprised local officials, some suggesting the count might have been at fault, as it is an imperfect snapshot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is carried out in the dark, of a population that does not want to be seen,” said Elliott Robinson, interim executive director of the nonprofit Coalition of Homeless Service Providers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Furthermore, the count is often carried out as unobtrusively as possible, meaning census takers, most of whom are volunteers, may guess at the race or ethnicity of homeless people so as not to wake or frighten them, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, in that same amount of time, Los Angeles County showed a large growth in its black homeless population as well, increasing 22%.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Prison Reform and Homelessness\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Steve Berg, vice president of programs and policy for the National Alliance to End Homelessness, suggested that California’s prison reform efforts might be another factor in the increased percentage of black homeless people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thousands of people have been released from prison in California since 2008 as the state pursued aggressive policies to relieve overcrowding and handle punishment and rehabilitation outside prison walls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Homelessness\" tag=\"homelessness\"]According to an April report by the Pew Research Center, while the percentage of black people sentenced to prison has decreased in number in recent years, it is still disproportionately high.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2017, white people accounted for 64% of adults in the U.S. but only for 30% of prisoners, and while Hispanics represented 16% of the adult population, they accounted for 23% of inmates. Accounting for only 12% of the adult population, black people are 33% of the sentenced prison population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Coming out of corrections is a huge risk factor for homelessness,” Berg said. “That creates a sort of bounceback effect. People who come out of prison and become homeless are far more likely to go back to prison than people who come out of prison and don’t become homeless. The large racial disparities in the corrections system are both a cause and effect of disparities in homelessness.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harraway was arrested at least a dozen times, most often related to drugs, and cycled in and out of the prison system, which she said was common among the homeless residents of Chinatown. She connected with Community Homeless Solutions and entered its Women in Transition program, after which she found permanent housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the state’s prison reform efforts, the rate of successful parole applications has jumped from a few out of every 100 to almost one in six. In 2017, a congressional committee found that “95 percent of the prison population today will be released at some point in the future.” The share of parole hearings that ended in a recommended release jumped from under 3% in 2007 to 19.1% in 2014, according to California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But felony records, stagnant wages and a rising housing crisis combined with policies that exclude or punish marginalized groups can ensnare vulnerable black people in homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even without felony records, black people face more difficulties finding employment and housing than other races or ethnicities, the National Fair Housing Alliance (NFHA) demonstrated in a recent report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NFHA found that even after the Fair Housing Act of 1968 legally outlawed denying people housing based on race after redlining and exclusionary zoning targeted people of color, black people still face housing discrimination. Another analysis of the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act data evidenced that black people are charged higher fees and rates than white borrowers and are routinely denied mortgage loan applications at a much higher rate than white applicants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a community where the barrier is at the front door,” Berg said. “The higher poverty rates among black and Native American people are quite pronounced.

While people with lighter skin might be allowed to cut in line for the bathroom in an emergency, for example, black people in the same situation might be told to wait their turn, Harraway said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s alienating,” Harraway said. “It hurts. Especially when you have the attitude (that) we’re all in this together.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At one point, she said, racial tensions violently divided the community in Chinatown where she stayed. People began to retreat behind racial lines, with black people facing off against Latinos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harraway herself was later diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder from all the violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harraway’s cousin was killed; she arrived just in time to witness his last breaths. Between Aug. 22 and Sept. 17, six people were killed in Chinatown, some shot in broad daylight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When broken down by race and ethnicity, PTSD affects black people more than any other group, and black women at a greater rate than black men, according to a 2011 study published in the Journal of Psychological Medicine. A 2006 study in the Journal of Emotional Abuse also found that perceived racism contributed to emotional and psychological trauma in people of color.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11777759,news_11777005,news_11774832,news_11764275 label='Related Coverage']When asked by LAHSA what would have kept survey participants from becoming homeless, the most common answer was “someone who cared about me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some homeless black residents in Monterey County say that is exacerbated by the lack of black people in decision-making positions in programs that serve the homeless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Victoria Powers, a black woman in her 30s who has lived in Chinatown since she was 15, agrees. Latinos working in shelters gave special treatment to the Latinos living on the street, she said, but the same was not true for black people hired by the shelters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’d think they’d want to help their people, but they’re too afraid of getting fired,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It just shows that racism still, in some form, exists,” added Shawn Payton, a black homeless resident in Chinatown and Harraway’s cousin. “The whites, the Mexicans (working in shelters and housing) are going to look out for their own.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Powers and others said they felt shut out of services, that they weren’t told certain programs existed until another black person clued them in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Where’s the money going?” Powers asked. “We don’t see it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reyes Bonilla, executive director of Monterey County’s Community Homeless Solutions, which runs the transitional housing program Harraway went through, said he often encounters that perception by black people coming into transitional housing programs. However, he denied that race factored into the way clients are treated, calling it a misconception.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berg noted that this sense of exclusion is not unusual among black homeless people, however, and added that there are ways to combat it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really a matter of working with the black community to make sure, to know that these resources exist and work with people to make sure they’re as friendly as possible,” Berg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Working with people experiencing the programs as well will go a long way to improving gaps in the program and helping streamline the process, continued Berg.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robinson, at the Coalition of Homeless Services, noted that the coalition has seen a gap in the number of black people enrolled in their services versus the number of white people enrolled, evidenced in its 2018 report on racial disparities in homelessness. While black people outnumber white people 12-to-1 among the homeless population, they only enroll at a rate of 3-to-1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, once enrolled in the program, the percentage of positive outcomes for black and white clients are nearly uniform, with 8.59 black people graduating to permanent housing for every 10 white people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once you enter the system, your chance of a positive outcome is the same as anyone else,” Robinson said. “I think that’s an important point, though, that we should do a better job of outreach or building trust. We are falling short.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Kate Cimini is a multimedia journalist for The Californian.

While black people outnumber white people 12-to-1 among the homeless population, they only enroll at a rate of 3-to-1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, once enrolled in the program, the percentage of positive outcomes for black and white clients are nearly uniform, with 8.59 black people graduating to permanent housing for every 10 white people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once you enter the system, your chance of a positive outcome is the same as anyone else,” Robinson said. “I think that’s an important point, though, that we should do a better job of outreach or building trust.
