Oak Park residents will soon have financial assistance for housing-related expenses through the Aggie Square Project, a joint initiative between the City of Sacramento, University of California, Davis and Wexler Science & Technology.
The funds will provide residents with assistance for expenses related to unexpected life occurrences, one-time costs associated with getting residents stable housing and financial assistance toward homebuyer education.
“We need to set aside dollars to make sure that people who are living in their homes in the neighborhoods adjoining Aggie Square can remain in their homes,“ Mayor Steinberg told the press Feb. 3. “And so today we launch the beginning of a $10 million investment funded by the University of California, Davis per our agreement and funded by the city of Sacramento, to the first $2 million to help existing homeowners and renters stay housed.”
