SAN CLEMENTE

The builder behind one of South County’s largest developments has delayed handing off the construction of low-income housing it’s obligated to build to a nonprofit corporation.

At last week’s City Council meeting, a request from the developer of the new master-planned community called Talega to allow the Irvine-based nonprofit Jamboree Housing Corp. to build and manage a 186-unit low-income apartment complex on 10 acres of the Talega development was postponed.

The request will come before the council again next month.
