San Mateo County has a shortage of affordable housing for our citizens.  People vital to the heartbeat of our county, the firemen, police, nurses, teachers, and like, are forced to commute long distances from affordable housing to their jobs here in our county.  We know that by 2025, the county will add 71,000 new households and 133,300 new jobs.  The current new housing planned will not serve these needs.

Are you concerned?  Sign up to participate in an online dialogue called ˜Public Voices for Housing Choices.  You can also sign up at www.public-voices.org. This is the second phase of the countywide assembly and Threshold 2008 is building on the success and energy of the debate. You will get to post your comments online about this critical issue for the continued benefit of our county and its citizens.  You will be able to ask questions of our county officials and of housing professionals. You will hopefully help to change this for all of us.

What are you waiting for?  Sign up right now! Anyone can follow the discussion online but  to particpate, youll have to register.
