Happy #WomensHistoryMonth! Today I'd like to highlight Erin Schally and Holly Wang, co-owners of @Epidemic Ales and brewers of the new Lady Boss IPA, available now, including at Costco! These ladies have helped to put Concord on the map with their award-winning beers and commitment to community, participating in over 30 charitable events annually. Cheers to Erin and Holly--pioneers in a traditionally male-dominated industry!
What a special milestone to help celebrate the grand opening of Blue Oak Square Apartments! I remember working on the design of this project back in 2016 when I was serving on the Planning Commission. During our tour, we learned that this 181-unit, 100% affordable housing development is home to residents making 30% to 70% of the Area Median Income. 40% of the residents had previously faced housing insecurity in Concord while the rest of the residents are new to Concord. The project includes one, two, three, and even four-bedroom units to help house households small and large. #welcomehome
