Housing element no-net-loss unit reassignment (Site A to Site 7)
Cerritos
Summary
The project includes fewer moderate-income units than the housing plan assigns to the site, so six moderate-income units shift to the future Valley View Avenue site in exchange for seven market-rate units moving here. State law requires this trade to keep the city's housing accounting balanced.
