Cypress College Student Housing Project

Cypress College Student Housing Project

The proposed 312-bed housing project would be planned in two buildings connected by a covered glass-walled bridge with 164 permanent parking spaces located in the lot east of the baseball field (Lot G). One building would be three stories in height and the other would be four stories in height. New recreational courts would be added with District funding. The goal of this project is to provide safe, on-campus, affordable student housing for low-income students attending Cypress College full-time. The project will provide three types of units: 1. Two-bed units (105 units, 210 beds) 2. Seven-bed units (14 units, 98 beds), each with their own kitchens and living areas 3. Two-bedroom units, one bed per bedroom (2 units, 4 beds) The proposed project also includes appropriate basic needs support spaces for the residential food pantry, academic counseling, mental wellness counseling, healthcare examination/treatment, and tutoring/study space. Residential support spaces include community kitchens, student lounges, laundry rooms, mail services, administrative offices, workrooms and storage, a building maintenance shop, a staff breakroom, and an RA resource room. Site amenities include a parking lot for residents, recreational courts, and landscaped courtyards. Both the building and the site will address basic needs, provide safe living environments within and surrounding the new facilities, support student dignity and security, and encourage student learning, wellness, engagement, and community. The project site was not identified on a hazardous materials site, enumerated under section 65962.5 of the Government Code.
