A September grand opening is tentatively planned for Heritage Park Arcadia, a 54-unit development at 150 W. Las Tunas Drive. It provides housing for low income seniors and meets the special needs of elderly.
City Manager Bill Kelly is concerned about a new measure to penalize cities that are not meeting state affordable housing rules. The Dunn Measure could penalize cities as much as $1000 per needed unit and take away up to 60 percent of gas tax funds. Bill Kelly says Arcadia already has a number of senior citizen projects in planning.
