What's happening: The Marin County Board of Supervisors votes Tuesday on a 337-unit mixed-use development at 201 Seminary Drive on the former Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary campus in Strawberry. The project would add 184 new residential units, renovate 139 existing ones and build a 150-unit senior care facility. Seventy units would be priced as affordable housing.

The proposed site plan. Red structures are new residential units, orange is the residential care facility for seniors, purple is the academic campus and green is the new fitness and daycare center. Gray outlines are existing buildings to remain. (Marin County Community Development Agency, Board of Supervisors staff report, June 9, 2026)
The context: The project has been in the works since North Coast Land Holdings purchased the property in 2014. The county's own environmental review found the project will produce significant and unavoidable impacts on vehicle miles traveled, greenhouse gas emissions and construction noise. The board is expected to approve it. Under state housing law, the county's ability to reduce the project's density is limited. North Coast's attorney told the Planning Commission in March that a denial could trigger a larger project of up to 606 units, exempt from environmental review.
