The ULI Terwilliger Center for Workforce Housing has selected Casa del Maestro in Santa Clara, The Kalahari, Miller Ranch, and South City Lights as winners of this year’s Jack Kemp Workforce Housing Models of Excellence Awards.

The awards are given to workforce housing developments that represent outstanding achievements in several areas, including innovative financing, unique construction methodologies, strong public/private partnerships, and replicability to achieve workforce housing affordability. The award winners were announced at the ULI Fall Meeting in San Francisco last week.

The Models of Excellence Awards recognize exemplary developments that meet workforce housing needs in high-cost communities. Twenty-five submissions were reviewed throughout the U.S. Each of the four winning projects had at least 25% of the units designated for families earning between 60% and 120% of the area median income; was located near employment centers and transportation hubs; and utilized public capital subsidies for no more than 25% of the development costs.

开发商与当地市政当局之间的牢固合作伙伴关系使所有获胜的发展都得到了支持。结果，每个市政当局及其居民将受益于社区中劳动力住房的可用性增加。

The winners are:
