Century Freeway Housing Program
Agency overview
Formed1979

The Century Freeway Housing Program was the state agency responsible for developing new housing stock to replace the homes being demolished as a result of the construction of the Century Freeway, I-105 beginning in the 1980s. The Century Freeway Housing Program (CFHP) was a division of the California Department of Housing and Community Development until after completion of the I-105, at which time it was privatized and became the Century Freeway Corporation, a tax exempt public benefit charitable nonprofit organization, which assumed all of the assets and liabilities of the public agency and remains in operation.

Jurisdiction

edit

The CFHP was originally limited in its jurisdiction to a narrow band adjacent to the I-105 right-of-way, the "Primary Zone," but as the availability of property necessary for the development of replacement housing became constrained, the jurisdiction was expanded. The I-105 right-of-way passes through the cities of Compton, Downey, El Segundo, Hawthorne, Inglewood, Los Angeles, Lynwood, Norwalk, Paramount, and South Gate, as well as unincorporated communities in the county of Los Angeles. The "Primary Zone" included, in addition to the above, the cities of Artesia, Bell, Bellflower, Buena Park, Carson, Cerritos, Commerce, Cudahy, Culver City, Cypress, Gardena, Hawaiian Gardens, Hermosa Beach, Huntington Park, La Mirada, La Palma, Lakewood, Lawndale, Long Beach, Manhattan Beach, Maywood, Montebello, Pico Rivera, Redondo Beach, Santa Fe Springs, Torrance, and Whittier.[1]

Advisory Committee

edit

The CFHP had a Housing Advisory Committee to oversee its work. At the time of publication of the Housing Replenishment Plan in 1982, the Housing Advisory included 41 persons: 12 representing local government agencies, 13 representing private businesses and nonprofit organizations, and 16 community representatives, of whom five were displacees.[2]
