Rochester Mayor Thomas Richards and City Counsel President Lovely
Warren, along with many others took part in the groundbreaking ceremony
for the El Camino Estates Phase II development project in Northeast
Rochester Thursday morning.
El Camino Estates Phase II is a $6.2 million project designed to provide housing to families with 50 percent of less of the average income. Twenty-five family rental housing units were constructed near the El Camino Trail in the 14621 Rochester neighborhood.
El Camino Phase I was completed in the same area in 2010.

Comments
What a foolish waste of money to build more housing when the city needs to tear down abandoned houses and restore existing houses since there are more houses already than people.
This new housing will pull people out of existing rentals and cause more properties to be abandoned. Exactly the opposite of what the city should be doing.
