| The former Village South apartments contained thirty-six two-bedroom units, lacked off- street parking and had inadequate lighting and landscaping. The apartments suffered from poor design, neglect and crime. SHRA was able to leverage $1.4 million of Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) public housing funds and $800,000 of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to acquire, redesign and rehabilitate the troubled complex. The newly renovated complex managed by the Housing Authority, Mulberry Commons, is located at 3520 41st Avenue, and features thirteen four-bedroom, two-bathroom apartments with porches, off-street parking, an on-site SETA Head Start early childhood development facility, and common "green spaces" and walkways, Mulberry Commons’ design is focused on community. |

The South Line is Regional Transit’s light rail extension project from Downtown Sacramento to Meadowview Road. This project is scheduled for completion by September 2003 and will include two stations in the Franklin Redevelopment Area – Fruitridge Road and 47th Avenue stations. In addition to the light rail extension project, RT is completing a planning project for the South and Folsom light rail corridors. Called the "Transit for Livable Communities" or TLC project, it is a strategic planning process that involves community members to assist in developing a number of preferred land use scenarios for light rail station sites on each of the two corridors. |
