Plan to add housing for agricultural workers receives state support for $5 million

The plans of the San Mateo County efforts to expand farmworker housing, including units for those displaced by January's mass shooting, received a substantial boost Thursday when the state of California announced it would award a $5 million grant.

The Joe Serna, Jr. Farmworker Housing Grant will allow the County Housing Department to partner with the City of Half Moon Bay in the purchase of 28 manufactured housing units.
