Some questions answered about Fasana & Gaston. I have been a strong advocate for low income housing for 20 yrs. I hate to see our young people not being able to afford to live where they grew up. I believe that is by design, a deliberate strategy by those in control. We have been losing our leadership for years. Our young people like yourself, there is a void of leadership in our community. I have been asking for this type of housing for many years. To deaf ears!!! They don't care and circumvent the law by providing Senior Housing.

DUARTE, CA, June 30, 2011 – Determined to budget within “the new normal” of economic reality, the City of Duarte has adopted an approximate $11.4 million dollar 2011-12 general fund budget reflecting $700,000 in cuts including over $300,000 in personnel and approximately $400,000 in program. Should union negotiations prove successful, Duarte could be headed for its first budget surplus of approximately $135,000 in five years.
Even so, if the State abolishes Redevelopment, the City would be back to the drawing board for additional budget cuts.
