This letter, submitted by the Housing Justice Workgroup of the REAL Coalition, addresses the City Council regarding the analysis of Reasonable Accommodation (RA) and property procedures related to homelessness in San José. The letter highlights the inequities faced by marginalized communities among the unhoused population and critiques the current RA procedures for lacking transparency and structured engagement with affected individuals. The Coalition recommends that the City Council ensure that RA procedures are documented, informed by stakeholder engagement, and evaluated using disaggregated data to promote equity.
Key points

Homelessness disproportionately affects African American residents and other marginalized communities.
Current RA procedures lack transparency and do not include the governing procedures for public evaluation.
The Coalition recommends structured engagement with unhoused residents and advocates in policy development.
There is a need for measurable accountability and data reporting on RA requests and outcomes.
Limitations
The document appears to be a draft as it includes placeholders and lacks finalization.
Specific dates, votes, or dollar amounts are not provided.
The text does not specify the governing RA procedures, which limits the ability to assess their sufficiency.

Reasonable Accommodation Procedures The City has determined that...
