After two months of listening to concerns and seeking input to improve the proposed Ecovillage during meetings with a small group of highly respected Angwin residents (including members of Save Rural Angwin), PUC has unveiled the group's suggested changes to the community. We continue to invite input on these changes and encourage your comments through this website.
The revised project includes the following suggested changes:
- A reduction in housing units. The current Ecovillage application includes 380 new units. A revised plan would reduce the number of units to 275.
- A 105-unit Retirement Center would be added to the project and conveniently located for its residents next to shops and services in the Village Square.
- Relocation of housing units. The revised plan removes all units from the ball fields to preserve the view and the open, rural feeling upon entering the Angwin community.
In response to some residents’ concerns about being relocated to replacement housing, Mobile Manor and Brookside Apartments would remain, with potential upgrades that could include improving infrastructure, landscaping, and phasing out older mobile homes with new, modern units.
