Gold Ridge childcare facility feasibility study

Summary

The 4Cs preschool at the Gold Ridge property has to leave by August 31, 2026 because the old portable classrooms are at end of life, and no Rohnert Park replacement site exists. The council approved a feasibility study toward possibly building a new childcare facility on the same property, potentially funded by Measure I, serving roughly 64 children including toddlers and infants.

Impact analysis

💰Financial impact

Roughly $5 million or more in potential construction, with 4Cs covering the study costs; the city has already spent over $500,000 maintaining the failing portable buildings.

✅Who benefits

Low-income Rohnert Park and Cotati families who rely on subsidized childcare, and working parents countywide if the design becomes a replicable model.

⚠️Who could be affected

Families face disruption if no new facility is built or temporary space found, since the program cannot simply relocate within Rohnert Park.
