California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced a $200 million budget to address homelessness in California Wednesday, including a $4.9 million allocation to convert the Super 8 motel on University Ave. into permanent housing, according to a press release from the office of Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguín.

The converted motel will house 72 people, according to Arreguín’s press release Thursday.

In the press release, Arreguín credited state funding for the city’s continued efforts to reduce the unhoused population, and noted the city’s success in reducing homelessness.

“Homelessness continues to plague communities across the Bay Area, but Berkeley is one of the few that is getting results,” Arreguín said in the press release. “We are on track to deliver further reductions in our unhoused population, and that’s a result of support and  funding like this from the state.”
