Construction has started on an affordable housing project in Oxnard for local farmworkers and veterans. About 100 people attended a ceremonial groundbreaking Wednesday hosted by developer Cabrillo Economic Development Corp. at the site of the 58-unit Dolores Huerta Gardens apartments at the corner of Etting and Pleasant Valley roads. Among the speakers was the civil rights activist the project is named after. Huerta co-founded the National Farmworkers Association and was a champion of the Chicano movement.
