Governmental red tape has kept 300 affordable housing units at the Georgetown development in Fairfield standing as a ghost town of former military homes.
The grounds near Travis Air Force Base include sprawling grassy areas, playgrounds, a tennis court, basketball court, and plenty of parking near the numerous apartment buildings.
But for the last decade, the community has largely been abandoned, despite attempts by the developer to get the housing back online.

36 million to "renovate" apartments that look like they are in excellent condition already? Am I missing something here?

Follow the money and you will find your answers. Obviously some big political donors don't want these apartments to come online. I suspect the owners of the nearest major R.E. development wrote a fat campaign check to the good mayor. In fact I'd bet money on it.

It's a liability issue. And the city has refused to spend the money to take on said liability.

02:48 Yup. No immediate access to schools, retail outlets, public transportation, and emergency services. Fix up the place, fine! Turn on the water, fine. But, the lack of services is a big issue.

There are valid reasons for not letting people live there. I know the development, it is right outside the north gate to Travis. When it was housing Air Force people, Travis took on the responsibility for the utilities and emergency services. Access to the commissary and medical services were just down the road. As we’re the schools on base. For civilians it would be a different story. People living there would be miles from any public services, fire, police, medical. Even the nearest store is miles away as are public schools. Access is served by a narrow two lane road that has to cross an active rail crossing.

Well China built 122 miles of road for 260,000 people in 11 townships in 1800 square mile of mountainous territory. So why can't our government fix the water supply to help home the homeless vet or any other deserving willing workers who are homeless.

It's a disadvantage for low income residents, but them living on the streets isn't? Even if the base didn't want to share their water they can at least keep it closed until they build a new water supply line. I rather it be closed for another two years than to just have them throw their hands up and let it sit another decade.
