Read MoreIn a Small But Significant Step Forward Toward Mill Valley’s Housing Goals, Planning Commissioner Backs Steve Geiszler’s Five-Unit, Two-Story Town Homes at 20 Sunnyside Ave.

You can get to everything in this location. It’s right downtown. We’re going to need to add housing. Even if it’s housing of any scale, we need more units.

Read MoreMarin Voice From Ace Thelin, of Forest Knolls: Sadly, Rampant Homelessness a Sign That Capitalism Is Working as Intended
Capitalism is thriving because morality and common decency is absent from the policies imposed by the capitalist class. The way I see it, high demand (lots of people) and low supply (not enough available housing) will always create fierce competition and drive up the cost of rent and mortgage payments. When adequate housing is guaranteed, the rental market will crumble. People will no longer sign a contract in which half or a third of their income goes to rent because they will no longer have the fear of being homeless.

Read More‘Unprecedented’ Housing Project at Seminary in Strawberry Moves Forward Amid Neighbor Pushback
Famed architect Mark Cavagnero, who designed the project, did not return calls seeking comment, but he told the Chronicle in 2019 that the fight has “been a big, big, big taste of NIMBYism the likes of which I’ve never experienced.” “There is no property anywhere near this size anywhere in southern Marin, if not all of Marin, that would be available and zoned for housing,” Cavagnero said at the time. “This is important not only for the housing we can build — workforce housing, affordable housing, senior housing — but also on an exemplary basis.”
