Description

LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — A housing project for formerly incarcerated individuals will be the subject of a public meeting.

The Lake County Probation Department and Rural Communities Housing Development Corp., or RCHDC, will hold the community meeting on Wednesday, Oct. 23.

It will take place from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the Board of Supervisors chambers at the Lake County Courthouse, 255 N. Forbes Street, Lakeport.

The Board of Supervisors gave the go-ahead to the project in August.

The Lake County Probation Department reported the project is needed for “justice-involved individuals to deal with the large amount of this population that are homeless in Lake County following incarceration.”

Chief Probation Officer Wendy Mondrans told Lake County News that the project has a cost of over $24 million and will be a new build, not a retrofit of an existing building.

At the Oct. 23 meeting, topics will include the housing project plan, potential locations for it and the resources that will be available for individuals who will be housed in the project.

Mondrans will be at the meeting, as will Ryan LaRue, chief executive officer for RCHDC. The organization also is building an apartment complex for Behavioral Health clients and low-income families on Collier Avenue in Nice.
