Scope Of Work

DESCRIPTION

This 51-unit family apartment complex was built in 1993. The developers were HAND (now NVCH) and RCHC (Rural California Housing Corporation). This was the largest low income family new development built in the City of Napa since the early 1970’s. The Housing Authority of the City of Napa was the property manager for the first five years. NVCH has managed since 1998. The owner is Mayacamas Village Associates a partnership of the two developers. The cost of development was just over $7 million dollars.

This complex includes a mixture of one, two, three and four bedroom apartments. There is a community room which has been leased as a Head Start classroom since inception, laundry facilities and an office. Not long ago a small playground for tots was installed. The Von Brandt Neighborhood Center provides a welcome place for after school activities and classes for adults. Many of the residents participated in a leadership development program offered at the Von Brandt Neighborhood Center. As a result there are many persons who lead the resident’s association meetings and various social events at the property.
