ADU Program Symposium
May 18 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm
During the Fall of 2022, the Westside Innovative Housing Solutions(WINNS), developed a strategy for a one-stop-shop additional dwelling unit(ADU) program for the Westside. The program was presented during a Westside housing workshop in collaboration with the City of Ventura. WCDC/WINNS staff met with key stakeholders including Community Development staff from the City of Ventura and other strategic partners to encourage the development of ADUs as an alternative, affordable, accessible housing solution to high-density developments.
WCDC/WINNS staff had several meetings with interested stakeholders and prospective partners regarding the development of a Trade School along Ventura Avenue. Conversations with local labor unions, industrial property owners, and the Economic Development Manager from the City of Ventura have indicated that there will be a growing need for a highly skilled workforce in the near future.
