MV Residents’ Education Housing Partner’s 250-Unit, Affordable Apartment Project Near San Quentin For Teachers & County Employees, Have Received Unanimous Support to Take an Initial Step Toward Helping to Guarantee Rental Income for the Project
Marin County supervisors voted unanimously to take an initial step toward helping to guarantee rental income for a housing project designed to serve educators and county employees. The project, the Village at Oak Hill, envisions construction of 135 apartments on vacant land donated by the state in eastern Larkspur near San Quentin. The plan is to reserve 101 of the apartments for the employees of local schools and 34 for county employees.The project is being overseen by the Marin County Public Financing Authority, a joint partnership between Marin County and the Marin County Office of Education. It has a $16.4 million funding gap. Rising interest rates since the project launched are to blame, said Matthew Hymel, the authority’s director and a former county executive.
