Скачать или смотреть Can the government help build more affordable housing? The Apple Ridge Project

How do you define if housing is ‘affordable’? If there isn’t enough market rate housing, how can you even start a discussion about affordable housing? At what point do we decide there have been enough conversations and it is time for action? There are some who are taking action. This week Justin talks with Chris Todd – Business & Development Director for Henderson County, NC – about The Apple Ridge Project.

The Apple Ridge Project is made up of 60 multi-family housing units and 20 single family units. Henderson County approved using some American Rescue Plan (ARP) funds to help with infrastructure costs. Specifically, the funds will be used toward the water & sewer extension requirements that are necessary to complete the project.

The Apple Ridge Project, which is being spearheaded by The Housing Assistance Corporation, is proof that real partnership can exist with the common goal of providing more affordable housing units in the community.
