National CORE Hosts Community Meeting for City of Big Bear Lake Proposed Affordable Housing Project

Tomorrow, Saturday, May 8^th, a public hearing is scheduled for the proposed 59-unit affordable housing project on Jeffries Road in Big Bear Lake beginning at 12 noon.  The meeting, which is open to all community members, is being hosted by National Community Renaissance, also known as National CORE, to be held at the Big Bear Middle School cafeteria at 41275 Big Bear Boulevard in Big Bear Lake.  National CORE is the non-profit affordable housing developer of the proposed project who is seeking to inform the community about their plans and receive feedback as well as answer any questions community members may have.  The information gathered at tomorrow’s meeting will be part of an overall presentation to the Planning Commission on Wednesday, May 26^th, when Commission members review the comments and make their recommendation to approve or deny the project to the City of Big Bear Lake City Council members who, ultimately, will make the final decision.  At the May 26^th meeting, Planning Commission members may or may not take action at that time regarding the proposed affordable housing project and may defer to their next meeting on June 2^nd for a decision.
