The Housing Trust is committed to a proactive and
vigilant pursuit of innovative solutions to the housing
crunch in our community. We have acquired enough land to
build up to 57 new affordable homes over the next three
years.
The following affordable neighborhoods are currently in
development thanks to generous community support:
McCabe Corner—In
December 2005, the Housing Trust purchased four
adjoining lots on the corner of Glenwood and Gill, two
blocks from Town Square. Soon after, we entered into a
partnership with the Eden Group to develop a mixed free
market and affordable residential neighborhood on this
parcel of land in the heart of downtown Jackson. The
target completion date for McCabe Corner is fall 2009.
Melody Ranch—In
September 2006, the Housing Trust acquired three acres
adjacent to Melody Ranch. We plan to have15 new
affordable homes to offer our applicants by spring 2008.
425 Millward—In
November 2006, we purchased five adjacent lots in the
Town of Jackson at 425 South Millward (one block west of
the center), where we look forward to building 12 new
homes for deserving members of our community.
The properties mentioned above, and a parcel on Hall
Street, will house up to 57 new families over the next
several years!
We have the land, and we have the plans, now we need
your support to help bring these projects to fruition.
Donations from you, your friends, and family will help
make these new neighborhoods possible and will make
owning a home a reality for other deserving individuals
and families.
