Municipal Housing Plan City of São Paulo

MHP 2009 – 2024

The City Hall of São Paulo, aiming at building a more just and sustainable city, presents the Municipal Housing Plan (MHP) for public discussion. This version of the Plan, summarized in this booklet (its full version is available on www.habisp.inf.br), was drawn up based on the sum of technical knowledge and practical experience of all those involved in housing issues in São Paulo – technicians from the Municipal Housing Secretariat (SEHAB), expert consultants, municipal housing councilors and representatives of various social segments. With more than 11 million inhabitants, São Paulo is the most populous and economically thriving city in Brazil, presenting the greatest challenges facing municipal public policies. How to ensure decent housing for all its inhabitants, while preserving natural resources and preventing environmental disasters such as floods or landslides? How to ensure that the right to decent housing is extended by the right to live in the city? The answers to these questions go beyond the scope of housing policy, which makes the coordination between sectorial public policies essential. The Union, the States and the Municipalities have been developing their housing plans, which complement the provisions of Federal Law No. 11,445/04 establishing national guidelines for basic sanitation. The simultaneity of these two public policy processes has yielded opportunities for alignment of actions – both in understanding the problem and in the formulation of programs and ways to allocate financial, technical and human resources. The basic principles that guided the Plan’s development – decent housing, social justice, environmental sustainability, democratic and efficient management – are in line with the provisions of the Federal Constitution, City Statute, Strategic Municipal Master Plan and Millennium Goals. Besides the integration with the state and federal governments, the Plan proposes coordination between all housing programs and the actions taken by other government sectors, such as the implementation of green areas, social facilities or sanitation services. In this sense, the MHP collaborates with the Municipal Plan for Integrated Environmental Sanitation, approved in February 2010 and available on www.habisp.inf.br. This plan guides investments made by SABESP (Basic Sanitation Company of the State of São Paulo) in the city and directs part of its financial return to the Municipal Sanitation Fund, partly intended for urbanization works in informal settlements. In what concerns its social housing policy, SEHAB (Housing Secretariat) divides the city into six administrative regions, which correspond to a set of subprefectures. However, in order to ensure that the integration of actions has positive effects in improving the municipal territory’s urban and environmental quality, this Plan has adopted the river sub-basin as a planning unit, within which integrated action perimeters were enclosed. Thus, planning for these perimeters requires understanding all the elements that make up the urban territory and their integration into all public policies of the three spheres of government. In addition to the coordination between public policies, it is necessary that the Municipal Housing Secretariat encourage private agents to participate in the production of social housing, either by reviewing the urban and building legislation, or through incentives to obtain property (land or buildings) for social housing production, or even by providing incentives for the private rental market. Therefore, the Municipal Housing Secretariat plays a major role as an institutional coordinator to ensure that the sum of efforts of various public and private agents succeed in facing São Paulo´s challenges for the 21st century.

S達o Paulo Municipal Housing Plan MHP 2009-2024

VERSION FOR PUBLIC DEBATE November 2010

CANTINHO DO CÉU NEIGHBORHOOD

The first and most important step taken by the Housing Secretariat when developing this Plan was the implementation of a social housing information system – HABISP –, available on www.habisp.info.br. HABISP gathers updated information on informal settlements – slums, irregular settlements, downtown tenements, urbanized settlements and housing complexes, cadasters of families benefiting from different programs and varied information on housing programs. This set of information provides a comprehensive and updated overview of urban design and environmental conditions of the city’s settlements, allowing the assessment of intervention priorities for each program.

Thereafter, the intervention prioritization system was defined. By cross-referencing the existence of infrastructure networks, risk areas, social vulnerability and health indicators, it sets a score for each individual settlement and a position in the precariousness ranking of all settlements. In turn, each sub-basin receives a score reflecting the amount and conditions of the set of settlements in its territory.

HABISP provides information on settlements, reports on legislation in force, as well as on programs and projects by several public bodies. Cross-references between this information and that related to urban design and environmental conditions in each sub-basin provided an outline of integrated action perimeters. Each perimeter covers a set of actions from different housing programs implemented by the Housing Secretariat and their relationship with other programs, such as Riparian Parks (Parques Lineares) (SVMA - Municipal Secretariat for Green and Environment), Cﾃｳrrego Limpo and Tietﾃｪ Project (SABESP - Basic Sanitation Company of the State of Sﾃ｣o Paulo), among others. Perimeters are also a territorial reference to develop diagnoses and urban projects that consider all social agents involved in interventions.

INSTRUMENTS AND PLANNING

The MHP proposes actions aimed at equating housing issues in São Paulo between 2009 and 2024. These proposals present the city’s sub-basins as a planning unit to coordinate housing programs with public actions from other sectors. Such coordination occurs in integrated action perimeters.

Housing Situation in S達o Paulo

As most large cities in Brazil, S達o Paulo has a wide range of housing needs that demand specific attention for each type of problem. To quantify and qualify these needs, the Housing Secretariat keeps updated records of informal settlements drawn up by technicians who systematically visit their areas of work. However, in order to obtain information on housing conditions outside the informal settlements, it was necessary to rely on specialized studies that could fill the gap in census data, since the last available IBGE [Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics] Demographic Census was conducted in 2000. Thus, the Housing Secretariat and CDHU [Housing and Urban Development Company], the housing company responsible for preparing the State Housing Plan, combined efforts to gather information compatible for both plans, from estimates by Seade Foundation and specialized technical studies. All these various forms of housing needs can be sorted into three groups: the inadequacy group, a second group called deficit, and a third one requiring family support measures. These needs were also grouped according to the type of housing program and support to be received, as shown in the table below.

HOUSING PROGRAMS AND NEEDS Total or partial lack of infrastructure

Housing Inadequacy

Legal or land irregularity of possession or property Houses without enough internal space for the functions of living

Housing Deficit

Family Support

Urbanization and Settlements Regularization Program Springs Program Tenements Renewal Program Housing Renewal Program

Unwanted family cohabitation

Housing Allowance Program

Formation of new households due to population growth

Property Acquisition for Housing Allowance Program

Homeless individuals

Social Partnership Program

Families whose incomes are committed with excessive rent expenses

Social Rental Subsidies Program

The first group refers to the set of needs classified as housing inadequacy. In other words, it refers to households that could be considered appropriate and do not need to be replaced by new ones. There are different types of inadequacy – land, urban (insufficient or inappropriate infrastructure networks, risk areas, lack of green areas, social facilities etc.) or of the building itself (either due to lack of safety conditions, healthiness, comfort, or due to lack of sufficient internal space for each of the four types of functions – sleeping, hygiene, food preparation and living). All households located in the so-called informal settlements (slums, irregular settlements, tenements, irregular housing complexes or urbanized settlements) have one or more types of inadequacy. The map on the left and the table below show the number of households in each of these informal settlements, distributed in six administrative regions by the Housing Secretariat. SLUMS: 382.392 HOUSEHOLDS PLOTS: 359.356 HOUSEHOLDS SETTLEMENT: 29.857 HOUSEHOLDS TENEMENTS: 80.389 HOUSEHOLDS HOUSING COMPLEXES: 53.000 HOUSEHOLDS

HOUSING SITUATION IN SÃO PAULO

Housing Inadequacy

1.Family cohabitation is defined as two families or persons living together in the same household. Living together can be a desired option or not. To calculate the need for new housing, we take into account only information related to those who do not wish to live together (unwanted cohabitation).

2. If the domestic economy grows, household income can improve. Therefore, the need for new housing production for the range of up to 3 minimum wages may decrease. On the other hand, if the economy stops growing, that is, if it stagnates, it will be necessary to produce more housing for this income range. Thus, we must predict the state of the country’s economy – what will be the scenarios – to project the number of new households needed.

Besides these settlements, the HABISP [Information System for Social Housing] cadaster indicates the existence of 11,086 tenement households in Sé and Mooca subprefectures. Seade Foundation´s estimate for São Paulo is 80,389 tenement households.

Source: (1) HABISP [Information System for Social Housing], February 2010, referring to Sé and Mooca subprefectures; (2) Data obtained from the number provided by Seade Foundation, from which HABISP´s survey for Sé and Mooca subprefectures was subtracted; (3) The total number of 80,389 tenement households is estimated by Seade Foundation.

In regards to its construction, housing inadequacy was also considered a requirement for housing assistance, through technical assistance and micro credit for improvement. Seade Foundation identified 161,491 households – diffusely located in the city – without enough internal space for the four basic functions of living: sleeping, food preparation, hygiene and living. Inadequate households cannot be summed to avoid the risk of double counting, since there may be households with insufficient internal space in one of the different informal settlements described in the table above.

Housing Deficit The second group of housing needs is the so-called housing deficit. This group comprises all needs remedied only through the establishment of a new household – due to the lack of improvement conditions of the existent household located in risk areas or needing to be removed due to public works, either due to the need to build a new household arising from the formation of new families caused by population growth, or due to the elimination of family cohabitation¹. The deficit by substitution consists of rustic households, built with inappropriate materials that need to be replaced, as well as households located in risk areas or areas unsuitable for occupation, and households that need to be removed due to public works. These situations are always associated with an informal settlement (slum, tenement, plot etc.). Therefore, they are easily identified in the territory through the HABISP cadaster.

The deficit of new households to meet population growth is diffuse, that is, it can occur throughout the city and is not necessarily associated with a formal or informal city. The number of households to be replaced – deficit by replacement – was calculated by SEHAB [Housing Secretariat] technicians for each of the existing settlements. The table below presents a summary of this type of deficit by region and by settlement type.

Source: (A) HABISP, February 2010; (B) Seade Foundation, July 2009. Note 1: The deficit in this table does not include the deficit of new households to meet population growth or elimination of unwanted cohabitation. Note 2: Of the total number of tenement households estimated for the diffuse total of the city, 11,086 were identified downtown (Sé and Mooca subprefectures), according to HABISP cadastral data. Of this total number, surveys conducted by SEHAB [Housing Secretariat] identified a deficit of 1,663 new households, corresponding on average to 15% of the total, for tenement de-densification.

133,000 new households will be required to replace households located in informal settlements in São Paulo. The total current demand adds to these 133,000 new households another 94,000, related to the so-called unwanted cohabitation (people or families living together in the same household but wanting to move to their own house). This data was obtained from João Pinheiro Foundation´s estimates. Therefore, the sum of the current deficit is about 227,000 households. In response to population growth, 238,000 to 260,000 new households will be needed, depending on the economic scenario adopted, of growth or stagnation². This number refers to the growth of families whose income is up to 3 minimum wages, until 2024. This data was obtained through specific consultancies, which adopted Seade Foundation´s demographic projection and developed economic scenarios to project the distribution of population by income. The increase of housing units for families whose incomes range from 3 to 6 minimum wages is between 209,000 and 220,000 and for families whose incomes range from 6 to 10 minimum wages is between 143,000 and 149,000 new households.

HELIÓPOLIS Therefore, the sum of the current deficit (227,000 households) and of the projected demand (between 238,000 and 260,000 households) for families whose incomes are up to 3 minimum wages varies from 465,000 to 487,000 new housing units. Taking into account the increase of the total number of families whose incomes are up to 10 minimum wages, 827,000 to 856,000 new households will need to be built. This will require quite significant financial and land resources.

Family Support The third group of housing needs that is part of the social housing policy’s demand refers to those families or people that cannot afford living expenses. Seade Foundation estimates that there are 163,000 families whose income is up to 3 minimum wages and spend more than 30% of their income on rent. In addition, the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Secretariat estimate that there are 13,000 homeless individuals in need of temporary housing while they restructure their lives to gain access to a SEHAB housing program. In both situations, SEHAB believes that the focus should be on supporting the family´s economic structure, by partially or fully subsidizing rent costs. Therefore, 176,000 families demand extra income for housing expenses.

HOUSING PROGRAMS

Housing Programs

To meet this diverse demand and, at the same time, to ensure integration and economic, social and environmental sustainability between different interventions, SEHAB proposes a set of housing programs.

NOVA JAGUARĂ&#x2030;

Urbanization and Regularization of Informal Settlements The program includes actions of urbanization and land regularization in slums, irregular settlements, urbanized settlements and housing complexes, integrating actions of existing programs such as slum urbanization, regularization of plots and public municipal areas, regularization and trading of units in housing complexes.

Springs Program The program serves all informal settlements located in the spring protection areas of Guarapiranga and Billings water reservoirs, aimed at restoring the quality of drinking water in these springs. It is a successful example of institutional cooperation between the three spheres of government and in the use of the sub-basin as a public action integrated planning unit.

CANTINHO DO CĂ&#x2030;U

TENEMENT, PIRATININGA STREET

Tenement Renewal The Tenement Program is conducted by enforcing Moura Law, which states that tenement owners must improve their constructions, in order to ensure minimum conditions of healthiness and densification required by law. An improvement of this program should include the revision of Moura Law, to expand these minimum conditions and include in their scope contractual guarantees between proprietors and tenants.

Social Rent This program ensures that those families that cannot afford a loan have access to a unit built and maintained by public authorities through subsidized rental housing. The program shall receive improvements, especially in condominium management and building maintenance.

VILA DOS IDOSOS

Social Partnership This program is developed in conjunction with the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Secretariat (SMADS), as socioeconomic support to socially vulnerable or homeless families/individuals, through monthly rent payments for a period of 30 months.

Housing Allowance This program encompasses all types of existing housing allowance. The improvement proposed in this program consists in aligning housing subsidies and procedures in each one of these types, including other levels of government, in order to tailor trading standards and subsidy allocation.

Proposal of New Programs In addition to existing programs, new programs need to be implemented to meet all housing needs in São Paulo. The first program, fundamental and indispensable, is the Properties Allowance Program (land and buildings) for social housing. This new program proposes that public and private efforts join forces to obtain properties for the production of social housing units. It should incorporate ongoing actions to obtain land and buildings by public authorities, through purchase, expropriation or payment in kind, and actions to encourage the private sector to obtain properties for the creation of social housing, by reviewing legal standards, such as the regulation of City Statute´s instruments provided in the Strategic Master Plan. The second program would be the Housing Renewal Program, aimed at meeting renewal needs of the housing unit, primarily in settlements that suffered interventions of urbanization and regularization. Guided by the application of Federal Law No. 13,433/02, the program aims to provide free technical assistance and to assist families in finding housing micro credit in order to adjust their households and to ensure minimum standards of healthiness and comfort. The third program to be implemented would be the Social Rental Subsidy Program, aimed at assisting families that bear the so-called excessive rent burden. It also aims to leverage successful practices of the existing SEHAB Social Rent Program. The program proposes to allocate resources for rent payment to these families on the private rental market, as a form of support to improve their living conditions beyond merely housing. The program’s structure must rely on an adequate monitoring and assessment system, including the monitoring of the private rental market. The implementation of the last two programs will only be viable if federal financial resources are obtained.

HOUSING PROGRAMS

São Paulo´s different housing demands are divided into three groups: Housing Inadequacy, Housing Deficit and Family Support. To meet these needs, SEHAB [the Housing Secretariat] proposes a diversified set of housing programs.

The proposal presented for public debate is that the city prioritizes its investments to meet the most immediate and pressing needs of informal settlements. This proposal assumes that the allowance of new housing units must be shared by state and federal governments, as well as by the private sector. Currently, the resources from federal, state and municipal sources represent 61%, 15% and 24% respectively. To meet the total demand, the Plan proposes the expansion of federal resources, as shown in the table below.

This increase in federal resources is essential for the allowance of new housing units and the implementation of new rent subsidies and housing renewal programs. This Plan aims to coordinate this change along with other levels of government. To this end, it is important to approve the Proposed Constitutional Amendment 285/08 (known as Housing PEC), which proposes the allocation of federal (2% of the general budget), state and municipal (1% of the general budget) resources for the respective social housing funds. This proposal is being discussed in the Chamber of DeputiesÂł and the prospect of raising resources to face the housing deficit will become much more realistic and feasible.

3. This procedure may be tracked on the Chamber of DeputiesÂ´ website (www.camara.gov.br). The last update presents the approval of this PEC [Proposed Constitutional Amendment] by the Special Commission that examined the proposal in October 2009.

Tenure Resources Tenure resources required for the allowance of 840,000 new units identified as demand for the 2009-2024 period are about 38 million square meters, if the quota share of 50 m² by housing unit is adopted, as practiced by buildings with up to 5 (five) floors. This is a key issue to solve the housing problem in São Paulo, which is already being addressed through a diversified set of solutions and technical studies. COHAB [Popular Housing Company], responsible for the allowance of new units outside informal settlements, has already assessed nearly half a million square meters of land, of which 343,000 m² are being expropriated and 9,800 m² have already been expropriated. The land assessed by COHAB can be used to build about 10,000 housing units. The table below shows the distribution of this stock among the city´s subprefectures.

In addition to land and buildings in the downtown area, types 2, 3 and 4 of Special Social Interest Zones (ZEIS) will need to be revised and urban renewal studies for social housing in low-density areas will need to be carried out. These studies should be part of a program for acquisition of social housing properties to be implemented by the MHP.

MHP 2009-2024 GOALS

NOVA JAGUARÉ

Legal Resources Advances in urban legislation provide important instruments to address two of the biggest challenges of the housing policy: 1. Obtaining well-located properties for the production of Social Housing finds support in City Statute´s legal instruments incorporated into the Strategic Master Plan, such as progressive property tax, compulsory parceling and building, preemption rights, expropriation with government securities, onerous building right grant, in addition to ZEIS [Special Social Interest Zones]. These instruments shall be regulated upon review of the current Master Plan. 2. The regularization of all types of informal settlements – slums, plots, housing complexes –, implemented in public or private areas, finds support in ZEIS [Special Social Interest Zones] and other legal instruments of the Master Plan, such as a special housing concession, concession of a right in rem to use, as well as urban demarcation instruments, ownership legitimacy and urban adverse possession. This Plan aims at systematizing regularization practices in public or private areas, in order to consolidate the integration between different types of settlements.

The acquisition of properties – land and buildings – must represent a specific program to promote the production of new housing units in well-located areas in São Paulo.

Since the forecast of financial resources meets half of the needs, the City must adopt clear criteria for resource allocation, while mobilizing efforts to stimulate housing production by other levels of government and by the private sector.

The proposal presented for public debate is that the City must prioritize its investments in meeting informal settlements´ most immediate and pressing needs, as well as in supporting the poorest families. New housing units allowance will be shared with state and federal governments and with the private initiative.
