After months of opposition, a controversial plan to build tiny homes in North San Jose has been dropped, but residents are still skeptical.
The city is not moving forward with a plan to build 100 tiny homes at the Dr. Robert Gross Groundwater Recharge Park on Noble Avenue, according to a memo issued this month from Deputy City Manager Omar Passons.
"A lot of people just don't trust the system anymore," Kathy Sweeney, a long-time Berryessa resident, told"The people from the last time around felt like, 'well, we don't want to go through this every year.'" Tiny homes are much faster--and cheaper--to build compared to traditional housing. Residents Sandra and Robert Harrison Kay said there are two things the city needs to do to win back trust from residents: permanently remove the Noble Avenue site from the list of potential sites and protect the parkland through a charter so that it becomes illegal to build houses there.
