Merriment Village Apartments Phase 1

Description

A proposed joint application with Habitat for Humanity Yuba/Sutter for state Homekey+ funding to build 79 affordable housing units, considered as a business item.

Impact summary

If the grant lands, the 79-unit building gets finished without the expensive bank line of credit and with operating money in hand. If awarded, the city will need new agreements and contractual assurances — which come back to the council.

City Council - Jul 7, 2026

The city agreed to co-apply with Habitat for up to $10 million in state Homekey+ funding to finish Phase 1 of the affordable housing project — 79 units already under construction. No new units are being added; the money would backfill the bank loan and help with operating costs.
