From The Acorn, Apr. 3rd Edition, "Agoura apts. at $1,022 a month?"
Construction is set to begin this spring on an affordable housing development between Agoura Road and the 101 Freeway just east of Kanan Road, which will add 54 income-restricted apartments to Agoura Hills. On March 26 the city hosted a webinar with developer National CORE to update residents and address questions—including concerns about population density in a very-fire-hazard area already prone to traffic congestion.

The four-story building, to be located at 29125 Agoura Road, will be split evenly between two-bedroom and three-bedroom units, all reserved for households qualifying as low-income or very low-income. Parking for residents will be located underground. To read the entire article, go to https://www.theacorn.com/articles/agoura-apts-at-1022-a-month.

We Need Your Voice! The Thousand Oaks City Council will consider directing staff to draft an impact fee waiver ordinance for 100% affordable for-sale housing. This is a crucial step to reduce costs and make homeownership possible for low- and moderate-income families.

This ordinance would support Hillcrest, a for-sale townhome project that will provide 59 homes for low-income buyers and up to 19 homes for moderate-income buyers (120% AMI and below). The City acquired this site to expand affordable homeownership opportunities, and impact fee relief will help close the financing gap and get these homes built faster. Hope to see you on April 14th at 6pm!
