San Jose is advancing its housing initiatives with the completion of the environmental report for a townhome project at 5670 Camden Avenue in the Cambrian area. Developer Mana Camden Fund LLC proposes 108 units spread across 32 structures, transforming baseball fields and green space behind Beacon School into residential spaces. This development leverages the Builder's Remedy under the Housing Accountability Act for efficient approvals, including 22 deed-restricted low-income affordable units to support diverse community needs.

The updates under consideration strike an important balance, offering developers the clarity and flexibility required to build housing in a time of dire need for more units.

Santa Clara County's rural areas are threatened by builder's remedy proposals that could lead to significant loss of farmland and open spaces.
