Award Description: The Department of Community Housing has developed activities under the Recovery Act to improve the current conditions of older 1937 Housing Act rental units by renovating them for the purpose of safety, health and extending the life of the units, to provide infrastructure in support of future affordable housing development for low-income families of the Community and to continue to improve the living conditions of current subdivisions. The activities will afford employment opportunities to low-income and unemployed Community members to stimulate the local economy and help families to be more self-sufficient.
