Plans have been submitted for a new 14.6-acre residential development along Oakley Road in Antioch, Contra Costa County. The filing aims to replace the agricultural land with 71 new homes. Walnut Creek-based Brightsky Residential, a Resmark company, is the project sponsor.
An exact address has not been provided, though two county assessor’s parcel numbers are listed; 051-190-028 and 051-190-034. CBG is listed as the project’s engineer. The planning application submitted to the County planning department provides no other details about the filing. Brightsky Residential has yet to reply to a request for comment.
Resmark is a residential investment company founded in 1995. The firm oversees equity capital for institutional or private investors to fund suburban and multifamily development across California and major Sun Belt cities.

The property is located at the intersection of Oakley Road between Phillips Lane and the recently-built Goldcrest development by Discovery Homes. The project is close to several residential projects, including the 394-unit affordable apartment housing infill by AMCAL on 18th Street. Residents will be a 15-minute bike ride from the Antioch BART Station, though the distance could be dramatically shortened if a pedestrian pathway was created over the train tracks connecting Oakley Road to the BART parking lot.

Booooo. We don’t need more suburban single family homes.
Many people chose to live out here for its agriculture the waterways NOT JOBS and homes on 1 -2 acres were our first chosen home and it was said that was the future here but you sure didnt follow thru and the crime has come out this way with all these crammed neighborhoods your building and these homes needed bodies so you chose section 8 who’s making the money here whose causing the crime
What is your problem! Obviously have never had a medical crisis or other life altering event or you’d realize all humans deserve homes. The problem is people like you who lake any empathy for the other souls on this planet. I bet you hate animals too.
Obviously you nor a loved one has struggled to find a home. You’ve never had a medical crisis or other life altering event occur and demolish your savings? All humans deserve homes. People like you who lack any empathy for the other souls on this planet are so upsetting.
Only 71 homes over 14 acres? Come on now
Are the homes affordable for people making less the 100. How can we apply for it
Sickening! More crime and crowding!It will soon be unliveable here.
what
Did the guy who owned that land have a choice or was he forced into selling or did they just take it. Sickening this world we live in. Just build build build n screw over everyone else in the process.

PLEASE no more section 8! It brings crime to the city and Antioch is already on a downward slope with all the crime coming here.
I like to have one of those apartments The housing because I don’t have no place to stay, and I’m receiving ssi I need help to have one of those apartments for seniors. Thank you.
Make them affordable but not section 8
In your vast knowledge,is there a difference? We are all humans and worthy of a home.
Noooooo !!! That’s the last bit of land !! Build somewhere else !!! Too much traffic through our neighborhoods and speeding !!
Don’t kid yourself people ! The new home next to it start at a million!!
Sigh, I left Antioch to get away from the mess… Guess I’ll have to make plans to leave California. I love where I live, the feel of being away from it all.
Be careful rescore does not pay its bills
Where do I apply
How do I get on the waiting list?
SAD SAD SAD, I need to move out of Antioch. That means more section 8
crime and is scary just to go to the grosery store.
To all you negative people speaking on nothing you know about section 8 doesn’t have anything to do with crime it’s the people whom commit crimes of all color did that man and his wife that kidnap that girl at a young age from Lake Tahoe and brought her to Antioch rape and Impregnated her was they on section but he sure was on probation did the person that killed all those kids at Sandy Cook Elementary school was he on section 8 so stop Degrading section 8 because everyone is not on section 8 there are people of all Nationality that commit crimes so stop it we all need help in some kind of way
