Join Peninsula For Everyone, Menlo Together, Housing Leadership Council, Silicon Valley Bike Coalition and other housing advocates to see where Menlo Park is planning to build new homes. This event is part of Affordable Housing Month.
An expert group of speakers will be there, including:
- State Senator Josh Becker
- Affordable housing providers Alta Housing and MidPen Housing
- Menlo Park Vice Mayor Jen Wolosin
- San Mateo County Supervisor Don Horsley
The tour includes several “priority sites” for the next eight years. You can bicycle the route, or follow in a car. We’ll have scheduled stops for those who want to drive or do not wish to do the bike route.
