Satellite Affordable Housing Associates y Abode Communities colaboran con el Distrito Escolar Unificado de Berkeley (BUSD) para crear las tan necesarias viviendas para trabajadores en terrenos sobrantes propiedad del Distrito. BUSD Workforce Housing será una nueva promoción de viviendas para familias de seis plantas y 110 unidades. El terreno del proyecto es propiedad de BUSD y anteriormente se utilizaba como aparcamiento en superficie.
BUSD employees, including teachers and non-teaching staff, will receive preference for the homes, which will serve households earning between 30% AMI and 120% AMI. A mix of one, two, and three-bedroom units will be offered, along with onsite amenities including a spacious landscaped courtyard with BBQ area, gardening beds, and children’s play areas; a fitness room, a community room, a lobby, management offices and secure bicycle storage. The project is well-located in northwest Berkeley close to shopping, public parks, bicycle lanes, and transit.
