THE CITY OF OTTAWA AND THE CITY OF WELLSVILLE WILL SUBMIT APPLICATIONS FOR THE LATEST ROUND OF MODERATE INCOME HOUSING GRANTS. THE OTTAWA CITY COMMISSION WENT OVER THE THREE PROPOSALS THEY HAVE RECEIVED AT LAST NIGHT’S COMMISSION MEETING AND OUTLINED THE GRANT PROCESS. FRANKLIN COUNT DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL DIRECTOR PAUL BEAN SAYS THESE GRANTS WOULD SIGNIFICANTLY HELP WITH THE HOUSING ISSUE IN THE AREA.
THE GRANTS ARE PART OF THE 60 MILLION DOLLARS ALLOCATED BY THE STATE TO ENCOURAGE THE BUILDING OF HOMES. THE FIRST ROUND HAS 20 MILLION AVAILABLE.
