After excluding the Bay Area’s largest cities from a key pot of affordable housing funding — prompting a major backlash from local officials — the state is changing its rules.

The mayors of Oakland, San Jose and San Francisco had sounded the alarm after no projects in their cities received funding from a little-known committee that plays a key role in housing finance in California.  On Wednesday, the committee agreed to change how it allocates future financing. But local experts worry it’s not enough, particularly as all three cities struggle with drastic affordable housing shortages.
