City-Owned Sites for Housing Development
The City’s adopted Housing Element identifies nine city-owned sites that will be developed for affordable and mixed-income housing. In early 2023, the City Council took action to rezone these sites to allow for housing development (Ordinance No. 23-3). The next step will be to proceed with the "disposition" process for the sites (i.e., sell, lease, or develop), a process that is governed by the requirements of the State Surplus Land Act (SLA).
Information about each city-owned housing opportunity site can be viewed here: Information about City-Owned Housing Sites. In 2024, the City identified the Scout Property (Site #1), Senior Center Site (Site #13), and Fire Museum (Site #32) for disposition.
The Open Competitive Bidding Process is now underway for the Scout Property and Senior Center sites. Please click on the links below to learn more:
