The future of education and community living in Oxnard is officially taking a monumental leap forward. The Oxnard School District has formally approved the development of Seabridge Elementary, a state-of-the-art K-5 campus located on Wooley Road.
This is more than just a school construction project; it is a major investment in the long-term sustainability and value of Oxnard's most desirable coastal neighborhoods.
🔑 The Impact on Local Real Estate and Homeowners
New school construction and high-quality educational facilities are consistently proven to be a primary driver of property values. For homeowners and prospective buyers in the surrounding areas, this project signals strong confidence and future appreciation:
-
Increased Demand: Families are inherently drawn to neighborhoods with modern, top-tier schools. This increased buyer demand translates directly into greater competition and higher home values for properties in Seabridge, Westport, and Oxnard Shores.
-
Stability and Appreciation: By alleviating current and future overcrowding and guaranteeing modern learning spaces, the school provides long-term stability and reinforces the investment potential of real estate in the area.
-
Community Enhancement: The school will include a dedicated 2.5-acre park with play fields, which will be accessible to the public outside of school hours. This joint-use amenity provides valuable green space and a new community hub for all residents.
✅ Clearing Every Hurdle: A Project Built for Success
The approval process for Seabridge Elementary was comprehensive and rigorous, ensuring the project is viable and responsibly managed:
-
Funding Secured: The project is fully funded through a strategic combination of Measure R, Measure D bond funds, developer fees, and state grants.
-
State Approval: The plans have secured design approvals from the Division of the State Architect and the California Department of Education.
-
Coastal Commission Clearance: The project successfully cleared the final hurdle with approval from the California Coastal Commission, a critical step for any major development in our coastal zone.
This complete clearance confirms the project's legitimacy and ensures that construction will proceed, creating local jobs and delivering the modern facilities our growing community needs.
