The County of Del Norte’s Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is excited to announce the commencement of renovations on its housing project, The Legacy. This project marks a significant step forward in addressing homelessness in our rural community.
Through California’s Project Homekey, the County acquired The Legacy following the approval of a Resolution by its Board of Supervisors on October 13, 2020. The Legacy, formerly a motel, will undergo extensive renovations to convert 30 motel rooms into permanent housing options for individuals and families in need.
The renovation process will be conducted in phases to minimize disruptions to current residents of The Legacy. Work is scheduled to be completed within 150 calendar days, ending no later than October 24, 2024 with a public ribbon cutting to follow.
DHHS is thrilled to see The Legacy project come to fruition. With housing shortages persisting in our county, this initiative represents a significant step in addressing homelessness and providing stable housing options for our community members.
The Legacy project aligns with the County of Del Norte’s commitment to improving the lives of its residents and addressing the critical issue of homelessness.
