Kristi Bascom, Habitat for Humanity, thanked the board and talked about the history with North Housing. They want to respect the existing architecture and maximize the number of affordable housing in the space. These units would be affordable to low-income households. They are very excited to bring affordable homeownership to the city of Alameda. Danielle Thoe, Housing Authority, also talked about the history of the land and talked about the housing needs of Alameda. Board Member Ruiz asked Ms. Thoe about Lakehurst Drive and if any modifications would be made to the current road. Ms. Thoe said Lakehurst Dr would remain the same for about 60% from Mosely Ave but will then straighten out to a 90-degree angle to make room for a future local street.
