Housing in Brief: Atlanta Approves $50 Million in Housing Bonds

The Atlanta City Council approved a plan to spend $50 million on affordable-housing development and preservation projects earlier this month, according to a report in The Atlanta Voice. The council approved Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms’s executive order to issue $50 million in housing bonds as part of the mayor’s campaign pledge to spend $1 billion on affordable-housing efforts. Early in her administration, as Next City reported, Bottoms released a housing plan calling for 20,000 new and preserved homes that are affordable to people at a variety of income levels, along with efforts to stem displacement. “The passage of this legislation is a significant step in fulfilling our $1 billion commitment to the creation and preservation of affordable housing for all who call or wish to call Atlanta home,” Bottoms said, according to The Atlanta Voice.

Development project and pandemic a one-two-punch for residents

Vera De Souza insists sheâs been a good tenant. Sheâs lived in Design Place for the past eight years, and for most of that time has never missed a rent payment. That is, until COVID-19 came along and she lost her job as a restaurant worker. De Souzaâs rental assistance is still being processed, but in the meantime her income is limited to weekly $275 unemployment checks and whatever money she can earn selling homemade masks. On top of that she is helping her daughter-in-law, who also lives in the complex, recover from a difficult birth. De Souza said the propertyâs management told her theyâd work with her, just as they had months ago when she first fell behind on her rent. But just 10 days before Christmas, she was served with an eviction notice.
