Project Homekey Funding to Convert Hotel to Permanent Housing

On October 9th, Governor Gavin Newsom announced the County of Nevada is receiving $2.8 million as part of the fourth round of funding awards for Project Homekey, California’s innovative $600 million dollar program to purchase and rehabilitate housing, including hotels, motels, vacant apartment buildings and other properties, and convert them into permanent, long-term housing for people experiencing or at risk of experiencing homelessness.

Nevada County’s Homekey project is the acquisition of the Coach N Four Motel located at 628 South Auburn Street in Grass Valley.  The 18-unit motel will initially continue as a temporary emergency housing for people experiencing homelessness, with a focus on families, veterans and other vulnerable groups. If the project is approved by the Nevada County Board of Supervisors at their October 27th meeting, the County plans to remodel, update and convert the Coach N Four Motel into permanent housing beginning in 2021.   Read More
