The Veterans Transition Center in Marina is working to create permanent housing for eligible veterans. The 30 million dollar development is being called Lightfighter Village. It’s located on a 2.38 acre parcel of land that is expected to include a 3-story, 71-unit structure, that will enable currently homeless veterans to live there in perpetuity. They would also be able to continue to access their supportive services.
There are also plans for some Higher Density Housing, as well as some room for a Tiny Home Village nearby.
Lightfighter will be open to all veterans who meet program guidelines that include income limits for Low (and Extremely-Low) Income Housing, Homeless Status, and the Prioritization Of Need…as determined by the Veteran’s Administration.
If all goes as planned, construction could begin on the project in the Fall of 2019.
