Bill Powell/ David Thompson – Letter to the Editor

Great Location for our Seniors in Need: Next to Sutter Davis, Communicare, and the Marketplace, WDAAC is a Winner   We ask you to please vote YES on Measure L to start a new life for the low income seniors in Davis who have nowhere else to go.  The wait list for senior affordable housing […]

Diane C. Evans – Letter to the Editor

As an Eleanor Roosevelt Circle (ERC) senior resident, I thank the citizens of Davis for caring to build housing for seniors. I actually came here to evaporate peacefully into nothingness.

However, the main reason is that 80 percent of occupants will be drawn from a Davis or Davis-related population. Davis seniors who are […]

Davis Enterprise Letters to Editor – A Good Project

They favor the affordable housing component; they are just against the rest of the project, which they consider to be urban sprawl. Do they really think the affordable housing can happen without […]
