A New Neighborhood Designed for Davis Families, Schools, and Our Shared Future.
Why Yes on Measure V
Davis Needs Housing. It's been over a generation since Measure J was enacted, and Davis voters have yet to approve new family housing. Young families, teachers, and local workers are being priced out. School enrollment is declining. Businesses struggle to hire, and thousands commute into Davis daily, adding traffic and emissions.
Yes on Measure V brings Village Farms Davis to life, a thoughtfully planned infill neighborhood offering attainable homes for people of all income levels.
With over 50% of the site dedicated to parks, open space, habitat conservation, urban agriculture, trails, completion of the Davis Bike Loop, and a large community park, it's a place the entire community can enjoy.
As State housing mandates approach and school closures loom, Village Farms Davis delivers what Davis needs for a sustainable future.
