Anaheim Council Expected to OK Housing Bonds Today

Using $58 million in bonds, Anaheim will double the amount of housing targeted at low-income residents by the city.

The City Council today is expected to approve the issuance of the bonds, representing about 15% of those approved by the state in a recent round of funding for low-rent housing projects.

Orange County will issue a total of about $88 million in bonds, with Santa Ana, Buena Park and La Habra also receiving shares of the remaining $30 million for housing projects.

The bonds will mostly rehabilitate rather than construct new housing.
