City subsidizes Palo Alto housing costs to lure top hires
Palo Alto officials voted to subsidize mortgage payments or related moving costs for candidates filling 120 managerial or hard to fill non managerial vacancies. The policy targets high housing costs in the Silicon Valley area, with aids for six months, to attract qualified applicants for positions such as energy planner. Housing costs have deterred several strong applicants from accepting six figure city wages.
