Background

A local non-profit organization is developing a new, lifestyle-driven community for people 60 and older to serve the Humboldt County area. It will be a life plan community offering all levels of living, along with access to a wide range of amenities and services on one campus.

Location

We have signed a Purchase Option Agreement on the Hiller Road property in McKinleyville, a beautiful setting within the Town Center Zone with easy access to area shopping, healthcare and other amenities. 

Timeline

We are currently (Summer 2023) in the pre-construction phase of the project: arranging architects, contractors, etc.  Construction at the site will hopefully begin in late 2025 with move-in by early 2028.

Residences

We project a campus of up to 204 cottages and apartments, with up to 60 of those homes (29%) developed separately as affordable senior housing.

Continuing Plan

A person can spend the rest of their life within a life plan community accessing higher levels of care as needed.

Community Amenities

The amenities currently being considered are multiple dining venues; fitness/wellness center, arts/crafts studio, multi-use spaces for meetings, events, and other activities, walkways, bike trails, and outdoor areas for recreation, a picnic area, social/entertainment events.

Pricing

Residents pay an upfront, one-time entrance fee and an ongoing monthly service fee that covers a wide array of services, programs, and access to amenities. If residents need a higher level of care such as assisted living or memory care they will receive a discounted rate on those services. Residents have the lifetime right to live there, regardless of changes in their financial circumstances.

Services Included

Monthly fees cover your residence, utilities (electric/water/sewer), cable and internet service, home maintenance (appliances, plumbing, lighting), a flexible dining plan, housekeeping; transportation, a full calendar of cultural, educational, social, wellness events, security, assistance with health care coordination, and access to community amenities.
