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.
