A proposed housing development at the former Windsor Creek Elementary School site is causing controversy among local residents. Supporters argue that it would provide much-needed affordable housing, while opponents raise concerns about wildfire evacuation routes and potential noise pollution [1][2]. The project, backed by Gallaher Community Housing, aims to offer below-market-rate housing exclusively for Windsor Unified School District employees [2]. However, neighbors have expressed worries about the development's impact on their community. They are particularly concerned about the proposed multi-family units' proximity to evacuation routes and potential disruption of local quiet areas [1][3].
