Project Experience Santa Angelina Senior Community Housing Project EA, County of Orange, Placentia, CA Environmental Planner. The Project involves the development of two residential buildings accommodating 65 units (64 rental units) of affordable housing for senior households, including a community center and recreational amenities. Building 1 is proposed to include 41 one-bedroom units, and six two-bedroom units. Building 2 includes 18 one-bedroom units. The Project will provide a total of 59 one-bedroom units that average 709 gross square feet in size and six two-bedroom units that average 871 gross square feet in size. The 3.9-acre Project site is currently home to Blessed Sacrament Episcopal Church, a well-established anchor in the community. The purpose of the project is to provide low- and moderate-income housing to seniors ages 62 and up earning less than 60 percent of the AMI. Seniors have specialized housing needs and fixed incomes that are not able to meet the demand of market-rate housing. The project provides the opportunity for seniors to live in a safe, supportive, and affordable environment. Developing a housing community with rent-restricted units for senior residents would also enable the City to meet the unique housing need of senior residents and advance the City’s effort to meet their Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) of 231 units for low and very low-income households. Mountain View Affordable Housing Community Project, Lake Forest, CA Environmental Planner. The Project involved the demolition of an existing office building located at 24551 Raymond Way and construct a 71-unit affordable housing apartment complex on the proposed 1.965-acre site. The development will provide several recreational amenities, including an approximately 2,050-square-foot community center, a small playground for young children, outdoor fireplace with seating areas, and large activity lawn. The Project required approval of a General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, Tentative Parcel Map, Site Development Permit, Affordable Housing Agreement, and Planned Sign Program. The Project proposed to provide affordable units to households earning less than 60% of the Area Median Income, of which 12 of the units will be set aside for Permanent Supporting Housing.
