The City of Glendale celebrates April as Fair Housing Month by recognizing property owners for their outstanding participation in the Section 8 and Homeless Shelter Plus Programs. This week, landlords Oscar Gonzales and Keith Lafond received commendations from the Glendale City Council and Housing Authority for their contributions to providing housing opportunities to low income households within Glendale.
The two landlords were honored for opening up their units to City housing clients that were formerly homeless and low income. Mr. Gonzalez has partnered with the City through the Continuum of Care Homeless Program for the past 8 years. He has helped 10 chronically homeless individuals who have moved into his rental properties and continue to live there. Mr. Lafond has been providing access to affordable housing opportunities for many years as a long time participant in the Section 8 Housing Program.
The City Council thanked the two landlords for being examples of how landlords can be compassionate and understanding of those less fortunate, by meeting their need for housing and helping them get their lives back on track.
