Plans for a 23-story UC Berkeley Dorm are expected to be discussed this Wednesday in a meeting with the Finance and Capital Strategies Committee for the Regents of the University of California. The project will bring 1,625 beds and a new dining hall to 2200 Bancroft Way in Southside, Berkeley. Construction is estimated to start as early as next year and cost nearly half a billion dollars.
Livermore City Council has voted to pursue rezoning a 122-acre property at 3658 Las Colina Road in Livermore, Alameda County, into mid-density housing. The plans could bring several hundred units to a portion of the hilly land, preserving nearly three-quarters of the site. Adventus Corporation is responsible for the residential application.
The Oakland Planning Commission is scheduled to review two options for developing Parcel H in the Brooklyn Basin mega-development in Oakland. The developer is seeking approval for both options, which could see the construction of a seven-story mid-rise complex or a 23-story tower. Signature Development Group is responsible for the application.
Permits have been approved and issued for an affordable senior housing project at 9418 Edes Avenue in East Oakland, Alameda County. The proposal will bring several dozen permanent supportive housing units with $14 million of funding from the Project Homekey initiative. DignityMoves is responsible for the application on behalf of the property owner, the City of Oakland.
The Berkeley Zoning Adjustments Board is scheduled to review plans for the 28-story residential proposal at 1950-1998 Shattuck Avenue in Downtown Berkeley, Alameda County. If approved, the project may become the tallest residential tower to be approved with streamlining from Senate Bill 330. NX Ventures and Rhoades Planning Group are jointly responsible for the application.
