The city of San Marcos proclaimed April as Fair Housing Month. “(F)airness is the foundation of our way of life and reflects the best of our traditional American values, and whereas April 11, 2023 marks the 54th anniversary of the passage of the U.S. fair housing law, title 8 of the civil rights act of 1968, which establishes a national policy of fair housing without regard to race, color, creed, national origin, sex, familial status and handicap and encourages fair housing opportunities for all citizens,” San Marcos Mayor Jane Hughson said. “We must continue to work together to uphold the fair housing act and the principle of equal opportunity on which it is based.” Pictured are city of San Marcos personnel including Director of Planning and Development Services Amanda Hernandez, Grants Accounting Specialist Zindi Castillo, Housing Coordinator Lorena Escobar and Assistant City Manager Joe Pantalion.
