Look Who’s Getting it Done Award

This year I started the annual LOOK WHO'S GETTING IT DONE AWARD. I will make this award every year in January. The award will go to someone in the 5th District who got something done for our community. The winner will be featured in my January “County Connection” article in the Novato Advance and on this webpage.

2007 Look Who’s Getting it Done Winner – Rob Hart & Hart Marin

The winner of the First Annual “Look Whose Getting It Done” Award goes to ROB HART AND HART MARIN!

Rob Hart is a private developer who successfully built an affordable housing project in Novato without any public funds, tax credits or subsidies. Rob wanted to use his experience and expertise in real estate development for the good of the community rather than to maximize profit.

The development, Virginia Grove, is located at 1845 Virginia Avenue in Novato. It is a privately-funded, eight-home, single-family subdivision. Three of the homes are deed restricted as low-income homes to make them affordable now and in the future. The rest of the homes are priced at half the price of new homes in Novato.

Not only are these homes affordable, they are also built with green building practices and features including: passive solar heating and cooling, pre-wired for solar panels, stainless Energy Star appliances, and much more.

Please join me and thanking Rob Hart for his inspiration and commitment to improving our community. He truly is “getting things done” in Novato.
