Heritage Commons, a 60-unit senior housing community in Dixon, Calif., has been awarded a grant of $1,500,000 to construct 60 additional units of affordable housing (Phase 2). The award, from the Affordable Housing Program of the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (FHLB), is the largest ever provided to any housing group in the Greater Sacramento region.

“First Northern Bank is proud to be a very active FHLB member,” says Louise Walker, President and Chief Executive Officer, and long-time Dixon resident. “For 103 years, this Bank has been deeply committed to serving the people of Dixon. We are thrilled to have played a role in securing, and now expanding, this much-needed affordable housing. It is gratifying to be able to help our hometown seniors.”
The Dixon Heritage Commons is sponsored by Davis Senior Housing Communities, Inc. (DSHC). “When members of the Dixon City Council and senior leaders in Dixon visited Eleanor Roosevelt Circle in Davis, they asked us to do the same for Dixon. Now, just weeks after opening Heritage Commons Phase 1, we received very good news that First Northern Bank was able to secure additional FHLB funds. What a boost for our efforts to serve seniors in both Yolo and Solano counties,” says Bill Powell, President of DSHC.

Phase 1 of Heritage Commons Now Accepting Applications
Phase 1 is now accepting applications. The affordable rental housing development includes such amenities as a community store, raised planter beds; and a relaxing therapy pool that will be finished next month.
“Heritage Commons Phase 2 doubles the amount of available housing on the 5-acre senior campus. It’s wonderful to have moved so quickly with the City of Dixon to achieve so many shared goals for local seniors,” says Luke Watkins of Neighborhood Partners.
A community center in Phase 2 will provide an additional meeting room, kitchen and office. Phase 2 will also include additional raised planter beds, a community garden, a natural swale, and a pond.
Modeled after Eleanor Roosevelt Circle (ERC) in Davis, nonprofit organizations are invited to provide onsite services to Heritage Commons' residents. For example, Osher Life Long Learning (OLLI) already holds 100 classes in Davis at ERC. “We plan to have active programs for the more than 200 seniors we’ll be serving in our Yolo and Solano communities,” says David Thompson of Neighborhood Partners.
