A Sonoma County civil grand jury has determined that far more oversight is needed for affordable housing in the county after an expose in a newspaper and complaints from residents prompted the investigation.
The jury's findings, released to the county on June 19 in the civil body's 2021-22 Final Report, call for more rigorous standards and procedures for monitoring affordable housing. The jury found that the county mostly relies on self-reported information from housing owners and managers and that direct oversight by authorities through on-site monitoring was"rare' and disappeared completely during the pandemic.
It came to the civil grand jury's attention in 2021 that individuals were renting apartments in the county for which they were not eligible, the report said. The jury didn't go as far as to say that there is widespread fraud happening in the county, saying that it cannot provide a definitive answer to the question, but noted no one they interviewed expressed fears of widespread misbehavior.
One thing that everyone agrees on is that there are not enough units for everyone who needs affordable housing.
