After a public hearing, the Garden Grove Planning Commission voted unanimously in favor Thursday of a site plan that clears the way for the construction of a 76-unit, four-residential apartment building on Haster Street.
The location is 12681 Haster St. between Lampson Avenue and Garden Grove Boulevard. That’s the site of Garden Park Care Center, built in 1962. It’s a skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility.
To the west of the site is the Haster Basin Recreation Area, formerly known as Twin Lakes Park.
The proposal is to split the lot into two parcels, keeping the care center on 2.2 acres, with 1.6 acres for the apartment complex.
Under the proposal, the development would include eight affordable housing units for “very low income” households.
