Affordable student housing is extremely hard to find in Berkeley. Now the Berkeley Student Cooperative fears one of its most affordable complexes will be forced to raise rents.
BSC is about to lose its lease of Rochdale where hundreds of students reside and, on Friday night, the cooperative held a rally.
Grillo Avila says 80 percent of the residents in the units are first-generation, low-income students. If BSC has to pay for the seismic retrofit, rates may go from $2,700 per semester to $4,200. BSC is hoping the university will pick up the cost of the retrofit but the university says that’s not part of the long-standing deal to operate the housing complex.
