MSHDA Assisting Small Communities

More than six million dollars in Community Development Block Grant funding, designed to spur home rehabilitation and blight removal projects in cities and counties across the state, has been announced by the Michigan State Housing Development Authority. MSHDA Executive Director Scott Woosley says the funds are used by smaller communities and counties to upgrade homes owned by income qualified residents and carry out other housing-related activities such as blight removal and rental rehab. The CDD supports affordable housing and vibrant places by providing financial resources and technical assistance training to local and statewide partners.
