A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN
JACINTO, CALIFORNIA, IN SUPPORT OF PROPOSITION 1: THE
VETERANS AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING BOND ACT OF 2026
WHEREAS, Cal Cities and its member cities advocate for secure investments to
increase the supply of affordable housing; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1, the Veterans and Affordable Housing Bond Act of 2026,
will appear on the November 3, 2026, statewide ballot and authorize the state to issue
$11.25 billion in state general obligation bonds to provide funding to build and preserve
affordable homes and expand homeownership opportunities across California; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1 is anticipated to provide funding to fast-track numerous
already-approved, shovel-ready affordable homes, turning stalled projects into homes for
families who need them; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1 is anticipated to provide funding to build homes working
families can afford, so that the teachers, firefighters, and nurses who serve the City of
San Jacinto, can afford to live in the community they serve; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1 honors our veterans by dedicating $1.25 billion solely
to veterans' housing and homeownership opportunities, including the CalVet Home Loan
Program, which has already helped almost a million veterans and their families; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1 helps our most vulnerable neighbors by providing
funding to create and preserve housing for low-income residents, seniors, those who are
homeless or at risk of homelessness, foster youth experiencing homelessness, and
people with disabilities; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1 does not raise taxes, but may unlock matching federal
funds, bringing tax dollars Californians send to Washington back home to California; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1 comes with strict accountability, public reporting, and
clear requirements, so that voters can see how many homes get built, where, and at what
cost; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1 benefits veterans, seniors, low- and middle-income
Californians, persons with disabilities, working families, farmworkers, students, first -time
homebuyers, and our youth; and
