In this episode, my guest, Mark Carmona, San Antonio's Chief Housing Officer, talks about his role and the current housing challenges in San Antonio. We discuss the need for coordination among different housing organizations and developers and the importance of a housing continuum that includes affordable rental homes, homeownership, and permanent supportive housing. Mark provides an overview of the city's Strategic Housing Implementation Plan (SHIP) and the $150 million housing bond that was passed in 2022 and how small developers can participate. We also talk about Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), how they can be low hanging fruit for affordable housing, and the city's efforts to increase community awareness and education around ADUs.
