Alhambra : Affordable Housing Plan

The City Council approved a plan to increase the city’s supply of affordable housing.

The plan is part of the federally mandated Five-Year Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy adopted by the city last December.

The city will rehabilitate 41 units as housing for low-income and handicapped residents by September, 1993.

In addition, the Redevelopment Agency plans to purchase the old police facility, which will be demolished to make way for construction of affordable housing.

The number of units to be built there has not been decided.

The Los Angeles County Housing Authority has agreed to provide assistance for 300 Alhambra households in 1993.
