ABAG Priority Sites Program
Priority Sites are sites that the County of Marin has zoned for housing and nominated for the Priority Sites Program.
As part of the program, nominated Priority Sites will receive technical assistance from the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA).
A designated Priority Site will also be eligible for future infrastructure, planning, and housing funding from the federal, state and regional government. Local governments, developers and site owners can request technical assistance and apply for available funding, including $28 million in predevelopment funding. The County will consider nominating existing Housing Element sites.
County Staff hosted office hours on Wednesday, September 20, to explain the program and answer questions. The
recording is available online.
Staff will bring updates to the Board of Supervisors throughout this process. The community will have opportunity to provide feedback if sites are under consideration for grant funding. Subscribe to receive updates.
