 Affordable Housing Project Opens in Avila Beach March 27, 2009 An affordable housing project opens in Avila Beach more than a decade after a massive Unocal petroleum leak displaced several residents. In 1989, officials discovered that the company's pipes had been leaking petroleum products into the city's soil for years. In 1997, Unocal publicly claimed responsibility for the contamination and as part of its cleanup, the company set aside property for affordable housing. The Lachen Tara Apartments is a 29-unit complex that includes studios, one bedroom and two bedroom apartments. Rents range from $400 to $700 per month. Read complete article |

Affordable Housing Comes to San Luis Obispo THE VILLAS AT HIGUERA GRAND OPENING April 17, 2008 Finding affordable housing anywhere in the area is becoming harder and harder. But some residents of San Luis Obispo have just received the keys to housing they never thought they'd have and it's all within their budget. The project by Peoples' Self Help Housing has many units for low income residents. "The truth is I never thought this was going to happen," said Valerie Lambert, a new resident. For the past six months, she had been living in her car before she was told about the new housing. She applied and qualified. Jeanette Duncan with People's Self Help Housing said, "We set aside units for people that have a history of homelessness, are in the shelter, that cycle in and out." Other similar projects are in the works in Avila Beach, Goleta, and in Ventura. |
