Sara Conner Court is managed by Eden Housing.
Sara Conner Court is a 57-unit community of affordable rental homes. The project revitalizes a brownfield site in Hayward, previously occupied by a beverage processing plant, a gas station and a dry cleaner. Sara Conner Court is one of Alameda County's first GreenPoint Rated multifamily developments and is also Green Communities Certified by Enterprise Community Partners. The development was designed and constructed to be more energy and water efficient than required by code and includes many green features.
Sara Conner Court consists of four buildings set around a large open space with a play area. An office, community room and laundry facility are located on Pulaski Drive, at the entrance to the main parking area. Parking is provided in 62 garage spaces and 35 surface spaces.
Developed in partnership with the City of Hayward, this urban infill development is named in honor of the late Sara Conner, a community volunteer and longtime boardmember of Eden Housing.
Sara Conner Court is a Finalist in the Readers' Choice Awards, Multifamily Category

Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
Since this property has a Project-Based Section 8 contract with HUD, some or all of the rents at this community are based on tenant incomes. Tenants leasing units participating in the Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance program typically contribute less than 30% of their adjusted income towards rental costs.
