Resources for Community Development wants to build 91 affordable apartments in San Jose.

The Berkeley-based affordable housing developer has filed preliminary plans for a complex at 520 West Alma Avenue, in Willow Glen, the San Jose Mercury News reported.

The project would rise next to the Guadalupe River, west of Guadalupe Parkway. 

The nonprofit developer aims to employ SB 330 for streamlined approval for affordable housing.

Lisa Blickenstaff, based in Irvine, owns the 0.6 acres property. It wasn’t clear whether Resources for Community Development intends to buy the land.

In 2021, an affiliate controlled by Resources for Community Development bought a property at 797 South Almaden Avenue at West Virginia Street in San Jose, with plans to build 99 affordable apartments.

In August, the city sought $22.6 million in federal funding to build the six-story complex in the Washington-Guadalupe neighborhood.

Resources for Community Development, founded in 1984, has built 2,650 affordable homes in 64 apartment complexes in 25 Bay Area cities, according to its website, from Fairfax in Marin County to Fairfield in Solano County, to Antioch in Contra Costa County, and across through Oakland, San Francisco and Silicon Valley.
