295 South Mathilda Avenue Affordable Housing
Sunnyvale
Description
A five-story, 110-unit all-affordable building (109 affordable plus one manager's unit) replacing a 10,038-square-foot former bank, with four density-bonus concessions and no waivers. Study session only — a formal hearing comes after environmental review wraps in a couple of months.
Impact summary
Neighbors say the area is already over parking capacity and want meaningful community engagement before the project advances.
