Join us for important upcoming events:
Thurs. 9/17/26 at 6pm at the Jefferson School: LV Collective community meeting! Developers will share information and listen to concerns about their proposed luxury student housing development on Main Street. The proposed building will overshadow Westhaven, Charlottesville’s largest and most historic public housing neighborhood.
9/23/26 at 6pm also at the Jefferson School: 10th and Page Community Meeting with Chris Henry, Dairy Market developer who is planning a luxury hotel and other upscale developments along Preston Ave. The proposed plans will eliminate a laundromat that is accessible to 10th and Page neighbors.
CLIHC released two Housing Reports to show the racist effect of local policies and to share our recommendations.
