Where Dixon Families Can Grow Together
Lewis has been planning and developing housing and retail in Solano County for more than 50 years. The Karlshoej family has owned farmland in Northern California for two generations, including over 20 years right here in Dixon. After months of conversations with City staff and community leaders, the families formed a partnership to help address Dixon’s infrastructure needs and expand housing choices through the Harvest at Dixon master plan.
Harvest at Dixon is about building a future that honors the past, a community rooted in agricultural heritage that also helps meet today’s housing needs. Whether it’s a teacher who wants to live near the school where they work, or a senior ready to downsize but stay close to family and friends, this plan is about keeping Dixon strong, connected, and thriving for generations to come.
Fixing Today's Problems While Building Tomorrow's Solutions
Current Dixon residents know the challenges: drainage concerns in winter, summer water capacity constraints, traffic bottlenecks in downtown, and aging infrastructure.
Harvest at Dixon addresses these challenges head-on, with over $200 million in improvements guided by input from Dixon families. These investments are fully funded by the new development and will not impact current residents’ tax bills.
These aren’t just project upgrades, they’re citywide solutions designed to tackle today’s problems while building the foundation for Dixon’s future growth in a thoughtful, sustainable way.
Housing That Lets Dixon Families Stay in Dixon
Housing pressure across Solano County and the Sacramento region is impacting Dixon families every day—
young professionals commuting long hours because they can’t afford to live near work, seniors looking to downsize with no options nearby, and growing families priced out of the community they call home.
Harvest at Dixon is designed to meet these real needs. The plan includes a diverse range of housing types, supporting Dixon residents at every stage of life, from first-time homebuyers to retirees who want to stay rooted in their community. It’s a thoughtful approach to housing that reflects the way Dixon families live, grow, and age together.
More Than Housing, It's Community
Great neighborhoods aren’t defined just by the homes, they’re shaped by the daily experiences that bring people together and make life more meaningful.
Harvest at Dixon is designed with those small, important moments in mind: Children walking safely to school. Neighbors catching up over garden fences. Families gathering for seasonal events. Seniors staying connected across generations.
It’s not just about building houses, it’s about creating a place where community happens, every day.
Building Economic Security for Dixon Residents
Harvest at Dixon is designed to strengthen Dixon’s economic foundation by creating opportunities for local families, supporting small and existing businesses, and generating new revenue streams to enhance city services, all without increasing taxes for current residents.
It’s growth that’s planned, purposeful, and built to benefit the whole community.
We Understand Why Some Neighbors Have Concerns
The Lewis and Karlshoej families have spent the past several years engaging with Dixon residents, local leaders, and community organizations. Through more than 50 presentations and public meetings, we’ve had the opportunity to hear directly from people who care deeply about Dixon and want to protect what makes it special.
We’ve received thoughtful, important questions, and we’ve taken them seriously. Find clear answers based on current studies and planning, as well as honest acknowledgments of areas that still require additional analysis. This is a community-driven process, and we remain committed to ongoing dialogue, transparency, and shared solutions.
Your Voice Matters
The Karlshoej and Lewis families could have pursued development without community input. Instead, they chose a different path—one rooted in transparency, listening, and collaboration. Because Harvest at Dixon can only succeed if it truly reflects the needs and priorities of Dixon families.
This is collaborative community planning, where residents help shape how, and under what conditions, the project moves forward. Your voice matters, and it’s helping build a stronger future for Dixon.
