Juan de Anza National Historic trail. Nearly 250 years ago Mr. Anza brought a group of 240 settlers made up of 30 families from Mexico into Baja California, their journey came near King City.

She thanked the City Council and told them to keep  up the good work.  7. COUNCIL COMMUNICATION5:  Council Member DeLeon stated he had nothing to report this evening, however he had a question about rent stabilization. City Manager Adams explained that in general it would be recommended against rent control for a couple of reasons the first being it reduces the housing supply, people are locked into a low rent then never want to give up their unit, where otherwise typically someone would move up in their housing, with rent control there are less low-income units available for people that need them. Secondly lack of housing is the real problem currently. We would be concerned about potential rent control or stabilization because it is hard to get developers to come here already to build and this may make it even  Page 1of4  KING CITY, CALIFORNIA CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF OCTOBER: 8, 2024    harder. The City Manager stated a more comprehensive study could be brought back. Council Member Deleon stated that we should keep an eye on it and consider it later on down the road.
