A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CYPRESS
SUPPORTING PROPOSITION B - SENIOR CITIZENS AFFORDABLE HOUSING
MEASURE ON THE NOVEMBER 6, 1984 GENERAL MUNICIPAL BALLOT.
135
WHEREAS, the City Council has recognized the need for affordable senior citizens
housing in Cypress, evidenced by the existence in 1980 of over 600 senior households
that would qualify for affordable housing; and
WHEREAS, in the last two years the City Council, with the support of the Cypress
Senior Citizens Commission and the Affordable Development Corporation made up of
concerned community representatives, has applied for a Federal Grant for an affordable
senior housing project of ninety units on the Cypress School property at Lincoln
and Grindley; and
WHEREAS, since these projects have not been successful, the City Council is
now seeking alternate financing plans for senior affordable housing; and
WHEREAS, in order to obtain the financial flexibility needed to develop a senior
citizens affordable housing project, the California State Constitution requires
Cypress voter approval and, therefore, was placed on the November 6, 1984 ballot;
and
WHEREAS, it is the intention of the City Council to use this voter approval
for senior housing only, although the State Constitution mandates the wording of
the ballot proposition to include all forms of affordable housing; and
WHEREAS, the citizens of Cypress have an additional control of future Council
actions by initiative petition, in the event any housing project was determined
not to be in the best interest of the community.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Cypress City Council wishes to restate
its support of Proposition B and insure the voters that the measure is intended
for senior citizens affordable housing only and to urge all citizens to vote in
favor of the measure.
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Cypress at a special
meeting held on the 1st day of November 1984.
