The Orangevale Cohousing group will sponsor a public slide presentation 7 p.m. May 13 at the Fair Oaks Library, according to a press release.
The presentation will be given by architect Kathryn McCamant, who co-authored "Cohousing: A Contemporary Approach to Housing Ourselves," the book that introduced cohousing to the United States. McCamant will discuss her 25 years of experience designing and building award-winning, sustainable cohousing communities.
The cohousing group is backing the Sycamore Village Cohousing project at 6041 Illinois Ave., near Greenback Lane, which would feature 35 housing units on 3.5 acres. The project has been the subject of controversy within the community and awaits final approval from Sacramento County. The public is invited to the meeting, and admission is free. For more information, call Marty Maskall at (916) 967-2472 or go to www.OrangevaleCohousing.org.
