Sunnyvale's Planning Commission has approved a significant housing development of 242 units on a former Orchard Supply Hardware site. This project, located at 777 Sunnyvale Saratoga Road, includes 80 townhomes and 162 apartments, alongside 2,050 square feet of commercial space. While some residents express concerns about the fit of this development in their neighborhood, it aligns with the city's objective of adding nearly 12,000 homes by 2031, including affordable units. The project is supported by state law SB330 and addresses the city's certified Housing Element, promoting diverse housing options across the community.
The Planning Commission unanimously supported the new project, indicating it will significantly contribute to meeting Sunnyvale's housing goals despite some community concerns about suitability.
This development proposal reflects the city's commitment to increase affordable housing options, requiring a percentage of new units to cater to lower-income families.
