The San Diego Community College District is currently in negotiations with a developer managing the military housing community at Naval Base San Diego. The goal is to bring affordable student housing to City College, as reported by the San Diego Union Tribune.
After careful consideration, the college’s board of trustees unanimously selected The Michaels Organization to oversee the design, construction and management of an 808-unit complex. This development aims to provide monthly rent below $1,000 for those in need.
According to trustee Bernie Rhinerson, this decision marks a significant milestone for the district. He stated that while they have never considered being involved in housing before, it has become necessary due to rising costs and homelessness affecting their students on both a statewide and regional level.
