RED Housing Fund

Driven by a shared sense of urgency over the housing and climate crises, the City of Santa Rosa and Sonoma County came together in December 2018 to form the Renewal Enterprise District (RED) Housing Fund, a joint powers authority. The RED Housing Fund represents a commitment to a regional approach to increased housing development and greater climate and disaster resiliency. Its initial $20 million in funding will help accelerate “climate smart,” higher density, multifamily housing production, with the aim of ultimately creating a more balanced housing market across Sonoma County that is affordable to all community members.
