There was a project being looked at last year but I have not heard anymore about it. If you call the planning department at the City, they can tell you if the project is still moving forward and where they are in the process. At some point, this would have to come to the community for a MEasure B vote and gain the approval of the community. If you live in close proximity to the location, you should also receive something in the mail when the project is presented at the planning commission meeting.

What is happening in West Yorba Linda on Propect on the north side of LA Fitness. I’ve been told that 165 units of low income housing are going in there. 165? We went through all the traffic studies effecting Brooklyn and Wabash street. With the growth of the Heritage Oak School, along with the membership at LA Fitness, the city is expecting for that neighborhood to absorb yet another jump in traffic? Does the city case at all about the west side?

This is not an attempt to create any slum areas in Yorba Linda. we have to comply with the state mandate and identify housing locations. We do not have to build them. All projects above 10 units per acre will go to to voters of Yorba Linda because of our Measure B. The first site that is going to a vote is in east Yorba Linda. It is in the Savi Ranch area. The Measure B vote will be on the ballot this November. If this passes, it will off-load some of the density numbers we have to identify, not build, in the west end of town.

Let’s see this in East Yorba Linda. How about on Bastenchury beyond Lakeview? All but two areas in consideration are in West Yorba Linda. Are you trying to make this a slum area? We have enough high density housing in this area. Compare all of the apartments in West Yorba Linda to what is in East Yorba Linda. Sure is not balanced nor fair. The scale of justice is out of balance.
