San Antonio councilwoman's housing proposals get backing from local, federal leaders
District 5 Councilwoman Teri Castillo on Wednesday highlighted a pair of proposals she introduced to expedite the construction of more affordable housing in San Antonio. Under those measures, which Castillo filed last month, vacant city-owned land would be put to use for more affordable housing units and the city would be able to offer incentives to nonprofit developers who build housing in densely populated neighborhoods. "When implemented, these policies will help San Antonio build and rehabilitate more deeply affordable units and realize our city's housing affordability goals sooner, while helping more families accomplish their dream of owning a home that they can comfortably afford," Castillo said at a news conference outside City Hall.
