Paso Robles Community Development Director Warren Frace described how he drew plans for the project in the 1980s when he was a city planning student at Cal Poly. At the time, he worked for an architect as an intern. When he moved into his office in Paso Robles in 2015, he discovered his 30-year-old drawings there.

Paso Robles City Councilman Fred Strong agrees it took a long time to get the project underway but says the city has done a good job. “The project includes something for everyone: houses, townhouses, apartments, and low-come housing,” he said, “It covers the spectrum.”
