Support Teacher Housing at SJ City Hall on August 8th

  

 

A HEARING FOR "SUPPORT TEACHER HOUSING" OCCURS on AUGUST 8th at CITY HALL
This cause for affordable teacher housing is asking for your support, as well as for you to show up in good numbers at city hall.  
Join teachers, educators, neighborhood parents, and students!

HERE ARE THE EVENT DETAILS:
San Jose City Council Decision (Council Agenda item)
Tuesday, August 8th @ 6:00 PM

City of San Jose Council Chambers
200 E. Santa Clara St, San Jose, CA 95113

CURRENT STATUS, PROGRESS & TIMELINE
"Support Teacher Housing" won the first round, but now the real fight begins. On Tuesday, August 8, the San Jose City Council will hear the case and deliver a final vote on whether the project can continue. If the mayor and council members vote against Support Teacher Housing, the project will be terminated.  It's the only project of its kind known in San Jose at this time, while other cities in the region, the state, and the nation are making similar plans.  If SJ City Hall votes in support, then the city joins a statewide and national movement to improve teacher recruitment and retention, our city's and county's teacher diversity, and the overall quality classroom experience. 

The cause is not yet over and "SUPPORT TEACHER HOUSING" asks you to sign-on, sit-in, speak-out, and spread the word. 
For additional information email: [email protected].   Sign on at the SupportTeacherHousing.org website, and see the Facebook and Twitter pages for regular updates.

On Wednesday 24 May, a community of teachers, parents, and local families took on the Planning Department and won.  In addition to the first 300 people who signed up as supporters online, and the 80 who came to the hearing to show their support, and the 50 who spoke at the hearing, Support Teacher Housing is still campaigning its cause, and they're campaigning for real crowd numbers in the showing at city hall, or letters to the council members and mayor.

FYI: comprehensive review of Support Teacher Housing can be found at the website of Stakeholder's for a Safe Green Village, here.
