Timeline
The new community will have vibrant, walkable neighborhoods with great open spaces, thriving retail, and housing of all kinds.
November 2024 - The Ballot Initiative
In November 2024, the ballot initiative will come up for approval by Solano County voters. They will have the chance to vote for thousands of good-paying local jobs, middle-class housing options, safe & walkable neighborhoods, and many other community benefits within the ballot initiative, all secured by the 10 Voter Guarantees.
The new community will bring at least 15,000 good-paying jobs in renewable energy, manufacturing, and more.
2025/2026 – Environmental Impact Report and Development Agreement
After ballot approval, the initiative requires us to complete a full Environmental Impact Report under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and negotiate and execute a development agreement with Solano County.
During this time, the initiative also requires us to conduct a full community engagement process with Solano residents to help create the allocation, eligibility criteria, and governance for the community benefits guarantees: Solano Homes for All, Solano Scholarships, and Green Solano.
During this phase, we would also begin design work on some of the initial neighborhoods. The initiative includes strong safeguards for ongoing community input, including requiring that we publish all plans for new developments in advance, and provide venues for the Solano community to provide input on each neighborhood as it's being built.
The new community will help preserve and enhance surrounding natural habitats, including critical conservation and mitigation areas.
