More discussion about housing in Anderson County and in Garnett proper. Commissioner Jody Cole says the city needs to take a que from early indicators like a steady waiting list for available city-owned Senior Housing apartments and press ahead with an investigation of expansion. Cole says the City Housing Authority has been reluctant to pursue an expansion. The City Housing Authority administrates two rent subsidized apartment complexes at Parkside Place I and II, as well as a private upscale senior living complex at Park Plaza North. Cole noted, although demand has declined, there is a waiting list of 29 individuals presently between the two facilities.
