Marinwood Plaza development vision in 2006

Seven years ago,  the Supervisors discussed a very different vision for Marinwood Plaza.  Although it included a market and housing, the majority of housing was at market rate and would be contributing standard development and impact fees to the community.  The current 100% affordable housing plan proposed by Bridge Housing is only superficially similar as it requires massive community investment and support for the residents for at least 55 years.

Over 43% of the population of Marinwood Lucas Valley has moved in since 2007.  Old assumptions about this previous for profit development cannot be projected on to the current affordable housing and a younger population of families with children packing all of our local schools to capacity.

The above is the Board of Supervisors Meeting on September 26, 2006.
