My company underwrote a $20m bond offering for Salinas, CA last year . The funds are being used to build the El Gabilon library. Pretty cool project- that community really needed this.
City of Salinas, El Gabilan Library 2018
Salinas Public Facilities Inc
The new El Gabilan Library is designed with a community focus that features an outdoor children's zone, a teen area, a homework help area and an outdoor patio and amphitheater.
In most cases, it means that the local community builds some apartments and then either rents them cheap or sells them cheap with restrictions on profiting from future resales.
Doesn't really work, because the booming economy in these places draws workers way faster than they can build subsidized housing.
A few people win, but for most workers it means nothing.
