Low
and Moderate Income Housing
Redevelopment
agencies throughout California are responsible
for the production of safe, sanitary and decent
affordable housing for very low, low, and moderate
income wage earners. Within the Health and Safety
Code and Redevelopment Law is a description of
eligible uses of the funds set-aside for such
purposes. In addition to the construction of new
apartment units as described in the Lexington
Avenue Senior Apartments, the law also provides
for the development of single-family homes. The
following is a list of those projects assisted
by the Agency for new construction of single-family
homes or the rehabilitation of existing multi-family
complexes.
