As the Co-Chair of San Mateo County Home for All Initiative and Supervisor of District 4, I had the honor to speak at the grand opening of the Sequoia Belle Haven Senior Living in Menlo Park. With 90 units of housing, this $43 million development was no small feat! It entailed a partnership between the public and private sectors, and a method of financing crucial to growing our housing stock.
District 4 resident Rafael Avendano is the After-School and Summer Program Director for Siena Youth Center of the St. Francis Center, former Chair of the North Fair Oaks Community Council, and a hands-on leader in North Fair Oaks – and he is only 31 years old! Rafael is a passionate advocate for education, accessibility, open space, affordable housing, and the positive development of future leaders.
One of my favorite places to be is in the District-- speaking with you, your neighbors and local business owners about your real life joys and challenges.
