The City of Alameda reported on Feb. 10 it has applied for a Project Homekey Round 2 grant to receive funding to build an interim housing development for the city’s unhoused community. The city requested $12.4 million, according to reports.
The City of Alameda gave a visual update of the Dignity Village interim housing development that is being constructed at the “Bottle Parcel” at 2350 Fifth St.
The population of people experiencing homelessness in the City of Alameda increased by more than 14% since 2019, according to a preview of the Alameda County “Point in Time” (PIT) count report released Monday, May 16.
We got the money! Last month I reported that Alameda applied for a $12.3 million Homekey grant from California’s Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). Good news: Our application was successful!
