Financing Aid Said Available For Housing Drive Here
Middletown faces urban renewal needs with blighted housing and possible private enterprise led by city backing and federal guarantees. NAREB official Hinders outlined a plan for a Mayor’s Advisory Committee and an urban renewal coordinator, plus subcommittees to draft city action and secure financing. He urged full community cooperation and cited eight federal loan paths to support rehabilitation while preserving services and preventing relapse into substandard conditions. He noted Middletown’s many pre-1919 dwellings and varied utility access as context for renewal efforts.
