Our Mission

San Juan Community Home Trust creates permanently affordable housing for low- and moderate-income island residents, promotes economic diversity and development, and supports a sustainable island community while practicing responsible stewardship of our rural enviornment.

The Home Trust is a community land trust, a type of organization that removes the cost of land from the cost of the home. Our homeowners partner with us as stewards of affordability. The Home Trust is a registered nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization.

Annexation
Completed....
(posted: 6/24/09)

Annexation of the 46-acre Buck property was finalized by adoption of an ordinance by the Town Council on June 18. The Town Council also amended the Comprehensive Plan map, adding the land to the official Town map and identifying zoning on the property. Land to be developed for permanently affordable homes was zoned Multi-Family while most of the land to be developed by Vincent Buck, Carolyn Buck Norman and Jai Boreen was zoned for Single Family residential development.
