Alameda: Groundbreaking begins on affordable housing complex [mercurynews.com]

Vanessa Cooper, the Housing Authority's executive director, called the future complex "a stellar example" of a green project.

The groundbreaking comes as Alameda County supervisors are considering putting a $500 million affordable housing bond on the November ballot as a response to the Bay Area's housing crisis.

"We think there's really a pressing need," Supervisor Wilma Chan said at Wednesday's event.

All units at Stargell Commons will be for families who earn between 30 percent and 60 percent of the area median income, which in 2015 was $92,900 for a family of four.

The floor plans include five one-bedroom, 16 two-bedroom and 10 three-bedroom units, plus one unit for the on-site property manager.

Rents are expected to range from a low of $468 for a one-bedroom unit to a high of $1,368 for a three-bedroom unit.
