July 15 : "Housing for Seniors"
with Thomas Dougherty, architect and author of "From Our House to Godshuizen"
Based on his article “From Our House to Godshuis”, architect, author and scholar Thomas Dougherty will speak about creating homes for the elderly. The medical practice of elderly care has come to recognize the importance of well-designed housing as foundational to the well-being of the elderly. Too often today instead of “housing” them, we “warehouse” them. The elderly leave society when they enter an senior facility, too often to be forgotten by the community at large. It is this separation perhaps more than any other single factor that contributes to the suffering, loneliness, helplessness, and boredom of the elderly today. Through this forum learn how ‘human-scale’ development can bring a semblance of autonomy and a sense of “home” back to housing for our elderly.

Thomas Dougherty, architect, published author, scholar, and city commissioner, is masterful at melding historic perspective with new urban design to maximize sustainability and livability. With a solid foundation as a timber framer and an undergraduate degree in History and Philosophy from the Franciscan University of Steubenville, Thomas went on to receive not one, but two Master’s degrees from University of Notre Dame in Architecture and Architectural Design & Urbanism. Thomas currently works as an architect in West Chester, Pennsylvania initially with Archer and Buchanan Architects, and currently for his own 'Innerblock Design Studio' where he specializes in the development of ADUs along residential alleys and other ‘inner-block’, infill development.

State Housing Propositions on the Nov. 2018 Ballot
with John Fowler (CEO) and Michael Hopkins (Policy Analyst) from Peoples’ Self-Help Housing
Tuesday, August 14, 2018, 8:00 - 10:00 am, Camarillo Public Library, 4101 Las Posas Road, Camarillo, CA 93010
This is the third Housing Issues Forum for 2018 with a focus on understanding the State housing-related measures on the November 2018 ballot.
Proposition 1: The Veterans and Affordable Housing Act
This $4 billion bond measure will provide affordable homes for veterans, working families, people with disabilities and those experiencing homelessness. The Act will create approximately 137,000 jobs, pump $23.4 billion into California’s economy.
Proposition 2: No Place Like Home Act of 2018
This measure authorizes the state to use revenue from Proposition 63 (2004, a 1% tax on income above $1 million for mental health services) on $2 billion in revenue bonds for homelessness prevention housing for persons in need of mental health services. While the State passed legislation to spend Prop. 63 revenue on revenue bonds for homelessness prevention housing, the legislation did not go into effect because of pending litigation. Prop. 2 would resolve the dispute regarding spending Prop. 63 revenue.
Presenters:
Join John Fowler (CEO) and Michael Hopkins (Policy Analyst) from Peoples’ Self-Help Housing, as they help us understand each measure and the impact it would have on regional housing. PSHH is the assigned regional whip for the Central and South Coast Prop. 1 campaign.
