Several new cohousing projects sail through hearings

March 20, 2007, was a watershed evening for cohousing in California with several hearings around the state: • Wolf Creek Village, a CoHousing Partners project that includes adjacent intergenerational and active adult cohousing communities, passed the Grass Valley Planning Commission on a 4–1 vote; • A subsidized, all rental cohousing project being developed by Affordable Housing Associates in Sebastopol was approved by the Planning Commission’s Design Review; • A very early stage cohousing project for San Juan Batista just received a 5–0 City Council vote to go onto a city-wide ballot (which is a required step for any new development in that town).
