I wonder why the City Manager is not keenly aware of the Census Data above. Or why it was not part of the presentation to the Public and Seniors Prior to the first contract being signed, and dollar being spent.
City Manager Tom Schwab said, that by definition, "most seniors are low income." He believes that living on fixed incomes and receiving social security checks typically puts them in a low income bracket. Mr Schwab feels that if Grand Terrace seniors are making so much money that they can't qualify for senior housing, they probably won't want to live in senior apartments anyway. He added that 10% of the apartments will be made available at market value for those seniors who do not qualify for low income housing, but would like to live there. Mr Schwab said that this provision is unique and not typically included in this type of project. From the other blog.
