OC Register: "Will San Clemente be O.C.'s next Habitat for Humanity community?"

By FRED SWEGLES

Habitat for Humanity has a concept to bring an affordable-housing project to San Clemente. The city says it would occupy four lots at 130, 132, 140 and 142 Avenida Rosa. That’s near a senior center and fire station under construction.

Habitat for Humanity of Orange County has provided 169 low-cost homes in 14 cities countywide for needy people willing to help build them or otherwise contribute to the cause.

San Clemente planning commissioners will have a one-hour study session about the Habitat concept at 6 p.m. Wednesday at City Hall, 100 Avenida Presidio. The public is invited.

Broadcom co-founder Henry Nicholas, whose foundation supports Habitat for Humanity of Orange County, arrives for a dedication ceremony for two new Habitat for Humanity homes in Westminster in 2010.
