Redwood City approves Cañada College housing
April 30, 2008 – 8:34 pmOn Monday night, 4/28, the Redwood City City Council denied an appeal and approved the Cañada Vista development, the faculty/staff housing on the campus of Cañada College.
The site is currently a parking lot. Pending transfer of the land from Woodside to Redwood City, the development is ready to proceed. The development will provide 68 apartments to faculty and staff of the San Mateo Community College District at low rents for five years, allowing them to build up savings toward a downpayment. The district also provides downpayment assistance to help with purchase of a home.

Congratulations to Barbara Christensen for shepherding her second major development through the process. The first was College Vista on the campus of College of San Mateo.
