In view of difficulties encountered in zoning and getting approvals on sites proposed for large multi-family developments, it is apparent that
the low income housing program will have to lean heavily on Developers and Guilders providing a substantial portion of the program on small

financing are already in this category.
No proposal has yet been made for construction of units (even efficiency or 1 bedroom) to rent for as low as $50,00 per month. The City's
freatcst need is in the $30,00 ~ $50.00 per month rental range.
