    Sacramento, CA – The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) issued a Notice of Violation to the city of Norwalk today for its recent ordinance banning new homeless shelters and housing developments. The state warns that legal action may follow if Norwalk does not reverse the policy, which Governor Gavin Newsom called “counterproductive and immoral” as California faces a growing homelessness crisis.

    Norwalk's moratorium, adopted in August, violates several state laws and has hindered the city's progress toward meeting housing goals. The city has until September 23 to respond, or it could face litigation from the Attorney General's Office.

    Maybe Norwalk feels as if it’s done its fair share and they should find other communities to step up and do their fair share. How much is enough? Will it ever be enough? Are we adopting adults FOR LIFE?
