A major street expansion to serve a planned 2,300-unit residential development in downtown Sacramento won $2.2 million Tuesday from the Sacramento City Council.
The council approved funding to rebuild North Seventh Street in the 65-acre redevelopment project, which will also include offices, stores and restaurants.
The money was promised earlier as a condition of the city's April application for $30 million in state bond funding.
Construction work at Township 9 is scheduled to begin this summer, with the first residential units opening in 2010.
