The City of Ontario’s $35 million Transformative Climate Communities grant is focused on its historic downtown core and builds upon six years of planning and engagement work to revitalize this neighborhood. Vista Verde provides 101 high-quality affordable apartment homes for families who earn between 30 and 60 percent of the area median income in Ontario, CA. This transit-oriented community is funded in part by California’s Transformative Climate Community program and is an integral part of the City’s plan to demonstrate a sustainable community. Vista Verde is one of the first all-electric, zero net energy communities, designed and constructed using cost-efficient technologies and innovative approaches to prepare for a world of bike- and pedestrian-friendly communities that encourage healthier lifestyles and reduce pollution. This sustainable development has a low carbon footprint, improving the quality of life for the community as a whole.
