"Marin County supervisors allocated $622,000 on Tuesday to help provide emergency housing for approximately 60 people who have been living in substandard conditions for years in Bolinas."

"After work on Tuesday, a dozen Bolinas families received keys to their new homes in a temporary R.V. park just yards from their old ramshackle ranch housing. Children raced around the freshly graded grounds while their parents signed leases and toured trailers with staff from the Bolinas Community Land Trust, which plans to replace the condemned housing with permanent, affordable homes."

"The Bolinas Community Land Trust is attempting to raise more than $2.59 million to provide emergency housing using recreational vehicles for people who have been living in substandard conditions for years in western Marin.

The trust plans to install 27 recreational vehicles with utility connections and a new mound septic system on a 20-acre parcel at 130 Mesa Road. Water for the project would be supplied despite Bolinas’ moratorium on new water connections by reallocating water from other land trust properties."

"About 60 people living in condemned housing on a Bolinas ranch could begin moving into an emergency R.V. park next door as early as next week. The project’s organizers are forging ahead even though they are still scrambling to secure all the permits and money they will need to keep the project running after it opens."
