Bakersfield city, community discuss plans for $5.4 million dollar HUD grant

Dec 22, 2022

The U.S. Housing and Urban Development grant is meant to build low-income housing, provide rental assistance, and assist veterans and people fleeing domestic violence in order to reduce homelessness.

The city conducted a survey prior to the meeting, and brought some of those ideas to the table on Monday.


Robinson got to the meeting early and touched base with some of the homeless people at Mill Creek Park. It's part of what he called recognizing the humanity of people, the same way others have recognized and helped him. It's why it's so important to him to be in a room full of people who just want to find a solution.
