Summary
The Teacher Housing Act of 2016 authorizes a school district to establish and maintain programs, as provided, that address the housing needs of teachers and school district employees who face challenges in securing affordable rental housing. The act creates a state policy supporting housing for teachers and school employees, as provided, and permits school districts and developers in receipt of local or state funds or tax credits designated for affordable rental housing to restrict occupancy to teachers and school district employees on land owned by school districts. Existing law defines affordable rental housing for these purposes to mean a rental housing development, as defined, with a majority of its rents restricted to levels that are affordable to persons and families of low or moderate income. This bill would additionally define affordable rental housing for the purposes of the Teacher Housing Act of 2016 to mean a rental housing development with a majority of its rents restricted to levels that are affordable to persons and families whose income does not exceed 200 percent of area median income, as specified, and located on real property owned by the school district.
