What We've Heard: Housing
The need for a variety of housing was cited as important to the economic vitality of Redwood City. Local residents provided a broad range of housing priorities for the Saltworks site, including:
- Provide adequate affordable and workforce housing options close to jobs
- The future plan must enhance the local jobs-to-homes balance to help off-set heavy commutes into Redwood City
- Connect any future use at the Saltworks site to the revitalized Downtown Redwood City; ensure that future retail and commercial areas complement Downtown businesses
- Create higher density housing that will increase affordability, reduce traffic impacts and offer senior-oriented and rental opportunities.
- Provide housing near jobs, transit centers and core urban areas
OUR COMMITMENT: Help the region responsibly accommodate future growth by providing a variety of housing options near job centers that helps meet the needs of a range of homebuyers.
