Commissioner Clark and Chairman Taylor requested the following information about the
Senior Housing Project: number of people on the waiting list, procedures to get on the
waiting list and turnover rate for the past five years.
Commissioner Clark reported she placed a phone call to the housing project
management company requesting information and after one week still had not received
a call back. Staff indicated they would meet with the company soon to address issues.
Commissioner Clark asserted long-time residency status in Rosemead should be given
priority consideration for Senior Housing applications, despite an ACLU

trailer park residents might benefit from a residency longevity preference.

discuss displacement issues.
