The Woodmark Apartments is a high-density, all-affordable, 84-unit multi-family development located approximately a mile from a variety of essential services and key amenities such as Ives Park, the Sebastopol Regional Library, and two grocery stores. Most importantly, 48 units will be restricted to farmworkers and their families – a critically underserved community in Sonoma County. The other units will be restricted to folks earning 30-60 percent of the area median income (AMI), also an underserved population. This site was also identified in the Sebastopol 5th Cycle Housing Element as a key site for high-density multi-family development.
Generation Housing proudly endorses this project because it is well-located, well-designed, and creates an opportunity for further integration of the surrounding neighborhood’s proximate to Sebastopol’s downtown core.
Generation Housing is supportive of this project’s invocation of SB-35, a key statute that aims to expedite the approval process of housing developments, including affordable housing, in order to address the state’s housing shortage crisis.
