Livermore residents may not get to vote on controversial downtown Livermore housing project
Briefly

Livermore City Council voted 4-1 to halt the referendum on an affordable housing project, determining construction can proceed without a public vote.
City officials state that a referendum is only needed for a proposed public park bordering the project, not for the housing itself.
Councilmember Evan Branning chastised project opponents, urging residents to welcome neighbors and show community unity despite differing views on the housing project.
Opponents express support for affordable housing but argue against this specific project, suggesting it be built elsewhere in Livermore.
