An upcoming housing project in El Cerrito has sparked controversy in its neighborhood as locals voice concerns over their proximity to the supportive housing development.
“Wouldn’t you be concerned if a drug offender comes out here?” Yvonne said as a mother and her two children walked by."We don’t know what's going to come here.”
“The supportive services really make sure that people here are supported and thriving. The people they see on streets living in encampments or unhoused will be the people who move in here. The people who'll call this place home are already in our community, they're already unsheltered or waiting for this housing in an interim housing site," said Tyler Renner, a PATH spokesperson.
