First of Three Phases of Renovations to Former HACSJ Offices
Thanks to a partnership with San Joaquin County Behavioral Health Services (SJCBHS), the first of three phases of renovations to the Housing Authority County of San Joaquin’s (HACSJ) former administrative offices is complete. In place of empty offices, HACSJ and SJCBHS have been able to provide low-cost, high-quality, affordable housing for our community.
Phase I Crossway Residences at Center Street renovated the former offices into 14 studio units and an on-site manager’s unit. SJCBHS, through the Mental Health Services Act, awarded HACSJ a grant to renovate and convert the former HACSJ administrative offices. HACSJ provided the land and the buildings, while the partnership built the studio units at a cost-effective price of $139,000 per unit. SJCBHS is providing supportive services to residents, and the units are reserved for 20 years to provide housing for SJCBHS clients. In addition, HACSJ is providing rental subsidies through the Housing Choice Voucher program.
