Section 8 Amen to James of Antioch last letter of information. He is right on regarding the section 8 impact on our city. It seems you are not required to have any income at all to live in a section 8. This is a slap in the face to the citizens of Antioch particularly those that pay Mello Roose taxes and were willing to pay the extra taxes to live in a decent, low crime neighborhood. What is wrong with the City Council and the C.C.C. leadership that looked the other way when Antioch was being made the dumping ground for countless section 8 renters? There was no consideration for the impact on property values or increase in crime that was sure to follow. The CC Times recently editorilized the City of Richmond notting their decrease in crime and increase in livability. The following day there was an article about the increase in crime and the many problems, and decrease in values in Antioch. Coincidence? This was not the city we envissioned to be in, when we retired 13 years ago. Jerry
