Santa Cruz Supes To Consider 3 Project Homekey Approvals

SANTA CRUZ, CA — The Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors will consider three Project Homekey affordable housing applications Tuesday. Two weeks ago, the Board voted to back its first Project Homekey development for a seven-unit affordable housing project in Santa Cruz.

County Human Services will present proposals for:

• $10 million to convert Jaye’s Timberlane Resort in Ben Lomond into a 14-room affordable housing complex for veterans.
• $13.5 million to build 35 units on a vacant lot in Soquel.
• $39 million to convert the Rodeway Inn in Watsonville into 94 permanent supportive housing micro-units.

The meeting airs 9 a.m. Tuesday on Zoom, or at 701 Ocean Street. See here for a full report in the Santa Cruz Sentinel.
