Affordable housing advocates concerned about former councilwoman joining city housing commission
SAN ANTONIO – A group of housing advocates protested in front of City Hall to voice their concerns about affordable housing in San Antonio on Thursday morning.
The protest comes as Mayor Ron Nirenberg is expected to appoint members of the city’s housing commission, which leads the city’s housing strategies.
“The people that need to be appointed to these boards are people who are recently and currently experiencing housing insecurity, who have been displaced, who have been evicted,” said Jessica Guerrero, a housing advocate.
