Mayor’s Office of Housing Refuses to Budge in Surplus Property Fight
The Mayor’s Office of Housing (MOH) revealed Tuesday that it is rejecting the unanimous decision of the citizen’s body charged with providing public oversight of the Surplus Property Ordinance. That body, the Surplus Property Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC), decided they wanted to turn city property at 150 Otis Street into housing for the homeless. In a letter to the Committee, MOH declared it would instead continue to push the Board of Supervisors to sell the building. Affordable housing and homeless advocates are gearing up for a fight at the Board of Supervisors over the future of the property, which could provide 120 high-quality housing units for homeless single adults.
