Some city owned properties in Crisfield could become sites for new homes for Hurricane Sandy victims.
The City Council has decided to donate the properties to the Somerset County Long Term Recovery Committee for potential homeowners.
Joyce Morgan, the city’s clerk-treasurer told the Salisbury Daily Times that there are around 10 locations that were acquired after county tax sales that might be suitable.
In addition, two more were donated to the city.
John Phoebus, chair of the Long Term Recovery Committee, says that his organization will look at each property to figure out if the existing houses could be refurbished and used as temporary housing for those waiting for rehabilitation of their own homes.
