    Wasn’t this originally marketed as specifically being for veterans? Nice bait&switch there, Palmdale!

    This is the latest gimmick the state and county are using… build projects under the guise of them being “for veterans” so there’s no public outcry, then when they’re built, they suddenly become low-income housing projects with no veterans anywhere in sight.

      If you think there are “no veterans anywhere in sight” I have to guess that your eyes are shut. Veterans are given preference in the CAC West building, as intended.

      @Kathy- A quick search found that there is an “East” and “West”. http://www.metahousing.com/location/courson-arts-colony-west/ . The west specifically states that it is veteran preferred.
