According to an article in the Navigator, RJB Development has finally (after 22 years and several developers) won final approval from the County for the Harbor View subdivision. The plans call for 70 units to be sold plus 14 low-income units to be managed by Burbank Housing. Currently approved CC&R's provide that none of the homes be rented for less than 30 days in order to prevent vacation rental usage.
There has been little growth in the area since Bodega Harbour began back in the 70's and while good arguments can be made for both sides of the development issue, I believe this is a much-needed boost for the Bodega Bay area and will help increase the tax base as well as fire department revenues. In addition to taxes, a $100,000 impact fee is being paid directly to the fire department as building begins in mid-2006.
If you're not familiar where the proposed subdivision is, it's directly across Highway One from Gourmet au Bay - in my opinion, you should visit this place...
