Controversial low-income complex approved
12:33 PM CDT on Wednesday, October 31, 2007
After a lengthy debate that at times got tense, the Houston City Council approved a low-income housing complex planned for Beltway 8 and the Gulf Freeway.
11 News first revealed neighbors’ concerns about the project last week.
Residents in the area said they have supported other low-income housing in the past, but said the proposed Regency Park complex was one too many.
They also said the developer had not properly notified neighbors and school districts, as required by law. The developers dispute that.
Although construction would not use any local taxpayer dollars, it required city approval because it would use specially-financed bonds.
