A new housing project located on Euclid Street between Valencia and Orangethorpe will become a reality thanks to a unanimous vote of the Fullerton City Council.
The area is currently an automobile dealership, but the Citrus Park project will change that. About 59 attached and detached homes are planned for construction.
The City Council also approved a plan on a 10 acre project in the Amerige Heights area in west Fullerton, which would add more housing to the neighborhood near Sunny Hills High School and Raytheon.
Councilman Bruce Whitaker was the lone opponent to the Valencia Grove project.
The planned development is located at the southeast corner of Hughes Drive and Nicolas Avenue/Hydraflow Way.
Many Amerige Heights residents spoke in favor of the project, saying it would be beneficial for the neighborhood.
