The Los Gatos Town Council has greenlit a new housing project near downtown, featuring 155 units in several three-story buildings. The development includes 26 below-market-rate units catering to low and moderate-income families, aiming to provide more affordable housing options in Los Gatos, where many renters struggle with homeownership. Despite concerns over insufficient open space and parking, the council ultimately supported the project, which also incorporates an emergency vehicle access road to enhance public safety amid increasing traffic congestion during peak tourist seasons.
"I'm one of the one-third of renters that lives in the town of Los Gatos who, as it currently stands, does not have a pathway to home ownership..."
"Some council members said the plan lacks enough open space and sufficient guest parking, but council ultimately approved it, saying the project would help provide more housing in town."
