Welcome to the Council 7 site at the City of Berkeley, CA.
More Student Housing Now! One of the main issues alarming residents of District 7 in Berkeley is the shortage of student housing. Our office is working together with local activists, councilmembers, the UC Berkeley administration, and state legislators to make the necessary changes to alleviate the housing crisis. We are focusing on amending current zoning laws to allow the construction of more housing, strengthening state housing law by having developers build more affordable housing, and supporting SB1227, which will allow students to use financial aid to qualify for affordable housing and will amend the State Density Bonus Law. For more details click here Welcome to the District 7 City Council website! Here you will find important information and updates on the issues and initiatives affecting our district and our city.
