Why Very Low Income Housing will be Located in Lucas Valley and Marinwood

 Why Very Low Income Housing will be Located in Lucas Valley and Marinwood


 

 In this clip from the Marin County Community Development workshop, Leelee Thomas, Director explains the reasons behind locating very low income housing in middle income areas like Lucas Valley and Marinwood.  Our neighborhood is designated to receive 80% of all very low income housing developments for unincorporated Marin.  Wealthy areas of Marin are deemed  "impractical" for this housing.  Lucas Valley currently has approximately 2700 and may receive 2300+ new tax subsidized apartments as the result of our current Regional Housing Needs Assessment.(RHNA). Of course the real reason is that we are without a local political leadership and it is easy to foist this upon us.    Real world concerns for water, infrastructure, schools, traffic are NOT ADDRESSED.  It is an absurd plan and much more public discussion needs to take place.  The full workshop video here https://youtu.be/2GHdSFf26QE
