Local Low Rent Housing Boosts Town Economy
The new 34 unit low rent housing project spurred local jobs and business growth. Bicknell Plumbing and Dean Newman handled plumbing and electrical work while Bonnie Lumber supplied materials. About 20 to 25 local workers joined the project, with 30 to 35 additional workers from outside. Units vary in size across six locations including two four bedroom units at 2nd and Eric and 10th and Main, two and three bedroom homes at 10th and Main, and single bedrooms behind M'System for handicapped and elderly residents. Superintendent Bill McFadden notes grass and tree planting to reduce future dust.
