Housing board weighs taking over New Haven nursing home
The Jackson County Housing Authority weighs converting part of Carbondale's New Haven Center, a nursing home in financial distress, into elderly housing. The move follows a federal foreclosure suit and New Haven seeking an out of court settlement. The board also raised income limits for low income housing and increased key salaries while considering a new energy saving heating system.
