Dear Supervisor Nottoli:
Re: Mixed Income Housing
The League of Women Voters of Sacramento County urges the Board of
Supervisors to instruct staff to proceed to defend the Mixed Income
Housing Ordinance in court and to halt negotiations with the BIA. As
you recall, the League supported the Ordinance through the two years
of hearings that resulted in its adoption.
The ordinance has become a matter of interest again as the County attempts
to settle the BIA law suit. We oppose settling the suit. The lower court
rejected the BIA position and the County is in a good position to win
an appeal.
We also have serious concerns about public policy, which has been the
outcome of extensive public hearings, being amended without the participation
of interested parties and without the ability of the public to know
what is being discussed.
Sincerely,
Roseanna Torretto
President
