Affordable Housing Funding Awards
Summary
The council freed up $1.6 million from a stalled project and put $2.8 million into Fairview Terrace senior housing, which breaks ground next month. Almost $12 million total is on the table, but the rest of the awards were pushed to a future meeting so council can hear from all the applicants first.
