How can we expect them to learn if they are experiencing housing insecurity?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The resolution requires the college to develop a plan to access existing inventory, identify space where housing can be built, apply for California\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/calmatters.org\/education\/higher-education\/2023\/05\/california-student-housing\/?ref=inglesidelight.com\"><u>affordable student housing grant<\/u><\/a>&nbsp;and engage with the community, the Homeless At-Risk Transitional Students program and possibly with San Francisco State University, which has received money from the state around student housing before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trustee Vick Van Chung, who asked to be a co-author of the resolution after submitting an amendment, said that the college should consider what type of housing they want to provide to students, such as short or long-term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe spirit and intent of this resolution is wonderful,\u201d Chancellor David Martin said. \u201cAs Trustee Chisti very nicely articulated, this is such a critical concept for students chasing their dreams and higher education and couldn\u2019t be more happy to work with the board to do as much as we can to get the grant submitted.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The college\u2019s former parking lot in the Balboa Reservoir is set to become housing. One building there will have 150 units dedicated to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.inglesidelight.com\/45-million-for-affordable-housing-29-bus\/\"><u>college faculty<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Madeline Mueller, a longtime faculty member in the college\u2019s music department, suggested the college try to develop the reservoir, which already has a development team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe got an architect and worked out a wonderful alternative plan which the supervisors would not consider,\u201d Mueller said. \u201cWe would have had parking and student housing and faculty housing for the lower 17 acres.
