I have no problem helping the homeless, mentally ill or anyone in need. I think ALL OF AMERICA needs more affordable housing, FOR EVERYONE! In this situation, the apartment building IS TOO BIG TO BE BUILT ON NORTSTAR DRIVE! 3 such buildings could be built on property behind Walmart! Ms.Berzac said Fargo Crossing was identified as a “high opportunity area”!? WRONG! nothing in this area but Burger King, Star Bucks and a few other small businesses. Part time, minimum wage jobs won’t pay the bills. The poor stay poor! Minimum wage goes up, gas and food prices make the raise in minimum wage seem like a cut in pay. I don’t have the answers, all we can do is PRAY. Mark Pratter, get your facts straight before you put them in print for the world to read. I, ReNee Estes believe in giving a Hand-up to anyone in need. Just PRAY.

That speaks nothing to where the project is located within the city. Sure, there are state laws that mandate affordable housing, but that doesn’t nullify debate on its location. Citizens have the right to oppose the proposed location. If the city decides to ignore the opposition and proceed with the proposed site, then thats a political decision. There’s no state mandate, that says low income housing has to built at that location.

I think this is excellent for single moms with one income to provide for her children and would love to apply and run the complex.

In reply to Susan Mendonca.

You really need to educate yourself about what the State of California sets as housing law. You are yelling at a City who CANNOT deny the project. You should be mad at your Governor and those in Sacramento but instead you yell at the wrong people.

Surprisingly bad display for the residents of Hanford. Self-help and the developer have great projects that are well managed.
These apartments will look and be managed 10 times better than the run down River Oak Apartments. Disgraceful how people cannot love their neighbor and allow for a good looking, well managed apartment complex.
This is not a homeless shelter. This is a permitted use and the City of Hanford CANNOT deny the project under State law. If they were to deny the project, the applicant could sue the City and a judge would hit them so hard their heads would spin.
