Citizens for One Rancho Cordova: Affordable for ALL! is a group
of concerned Rancho Cordova citizens. Our goal is to assure that
the future growth of Rancho Cordova is planned to accommodate all
housing and living needs of those residing in the community.
We are concerned:
- Will our children be able to stay in Rancho Cordova as home costs
and rents continue to rise?
- Will new development further our vision of ONE Ranch Cordova?
- Will people who work in Rancho Cordova (many of whom earn less than
$12 per hour) be able to live near their jobs?
- Will Families earning less than $20,000 per year be able to remain
in safe housing in Rancho Cordova?
Citizens for One Rancho Cordova: Affordable for ALL! has formed
to make sure the answer to each of our concerns is YES!
The median cost of a new home is $456,600.
With 30,000 new homes planned to be built in Rancho Cordova, we are recommending that
the city council require some of the homes in each development be made
affordable to working families and seniors earning less than $51,000 per
year.
The City Council can accomplish this through a flexible program where
market rate homebuilder work with the city and maybe even partner with affordable housing developers
to construct a range of different for sale and rental homes in the new
development areas that are affordable to a range of incomes (low, very
low and extremely low See definitions click here).
