| At the behest of Elk Grove City Hall, a contracted clean-up crew removed roadside garbage from the site of the future Coral Blossom affordable housing project. | |
This morning, a crew dispatched by Elk Grove City Hall cleaned up roadside garbage at the future site of the Coral Blossom apartment complex (see video below). The crew from MCE Inc., a city contractor, removed volumes of garbage that accumulated at the site of the future affordable and supportive housing project on Elk Grove-Florin Road.
Last weekend, Elk Grove News posted a video showing the accumulation of garbage at the site of a controversial housing project. The Elk Grove-Florin site was the second choice for the project, which was moved from Old Town-Historic Downtown at the behest of Elk Grove Mayor Bobbie Singh-Allen.
The mayor moved the project from Old Town after succumbing to pressure from a handful of residents. Even though Singh-Allen obliged the pressure campaign, her decision cost Elk Grove taxpayers over $10 million—with the meter is still running—from a fair housing lawsuit from the developer and the State of California.
Even though the city has reached its multi-million dollar settlement, construction on the Coral Blossom project has not started.

It is good to hear somebody at city hall is paying attention. Say what you will about Mayor Bobbie, she is a master at trash!
