Cuesta Villas Housing Project

According to the current plan, the City of Cerritos will lease 16 acres of land from ABC School District, and build a 247-unit low income apartment complex, a new senior center and a new park there. The City also purchase 6 acres of additional land for the School District to relocate its headquarters, kitchen and warehouse. The City will pay over $3 million in land lease to the School District for the next 55 years, rain or shine. All in all, The City will spend a total of over $300 million of Cerritos taxpayers' money on this project. Details of this project can be found here.

The United HOA is not opposed to affordable housing in general, but we are strongly opposed to this particular project, because it is ill-conceived and ill-planned. It is in violation of California Law, and it puts an extremely unfair burden on Cerritos taxpayers. Details of our position can be found here.

Even though this project was recently validated by Los Angeles County Superior Court through legal gimmicks and loopholes, we remain convinced that it cannot be justified by the spirit of our Constitution. We stand by those Cerritos citizens who continue to seek justice by appealing to a higher legal authority. Please support this effort. Please contact us if you can help.
