Senior Citizen Commission - April 14, 2026

The City of Davis Senior Citizen Commission held a meeting on April 14, 2026, focusing primarily on the needs of aging caregivers of persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Presenters from the Alta California Regional Center and Yolo County Housing discussed ongoing and planned affordable housing projects, including the Brettonwoods and Willow Grove developments, which include units dedicated to individuals with developmental disabilities. They highlighted the importance of state and federal funding, including a potential $10 billion California housing bond on the November ballot, which could impact future affordable housing projects. The commission also approved forming a subcommittee to research senior commissions in other communities to identify effective programs and initiatives. Additionally, the commission scheduled an off-site meeting at the Mary Stevens Branch Library and planned to invite the Yolo County Housing Authority director to discuss funding and services for unhoused and disabled individuals. No direct contract awards or procurement decisions were made during this meeting, but discussions emphasized collaboration between housing authorities and regional centers to support vulnerable populations.
