On June 16, 2021, the City Council committed $3.5 million and 59 Section 8 housing vouchers towards a 60-unit affordable housing development to be built on the west side of Greenbrier Drive between Apple Street and Oceanside Boulevard. The project will also include $6 million in state funds, along with private sector funding.

50 studio apartments and nine 1-bedroom apartments will provide permanent supportive housing for homeless Oceanside residents. Five of the units will be specifically for Veterans. 29 of the units will be set aside for adults with disabilities. Nine 1-bedroom apartments will house extremely low-income Oceanside families and residents at risk of homelessness. One unit will house an on-site manager.

The residents will be provided with and assertively encouraged to take advantage of on-site supportive services for physical and mental healthcare, Veterans’ programs and other needed services. Construction of the complex is expected to start in late 2022 and be completed by late 2024. More information
