CARLSBAD — A once quiet neighborhood has become weary of a controversial supportive housing project as complaints and concerns have piled up.
Neighbors near Windsor Pointe are stressing and begging city and county officials to address long-standing problems to the point where many are calling for the city to cut ties with the development. Windsor Pointe is part of The No Place Like Home program and was approved by the City Council in 2020, opened in 2022 and has been a burden on the Barrio neighborhood ever since, residents said.
The project is owned by the Affirmed Housing Group, although residents have dug through hundreds of documents and are questioning the legitimacy of the project. Residents expressed continued frustration with crimes, safety and a lack of transparency leading to uncertainty and fear about what is happening inside the walls.
The City Council will address the issue during Tuesday’s meeting and many residents will be in attendance. The two sites are at 965 Oak Ave. and 3606 Harding St.
