Princess Anne Seeking State Help to Rehab Homes

 

          

          Princess Anne town officials are hoping to get funding and other support for a housing rehabilitation program to improve properties and create affordable homeownership.

            Town Manager Brenda Benton said that a committee was working on an application for a state Sustainable Communities designation.

            Two programs are under consideration.

            One would provide for low-to-moderate income housing while the other would concentrate on fixing up historic properties.

            Meanwhile…Benton told the Salisbury Daily Times that the committee is moving ahead with a housing rehabilitation program but must first identify and categorize housing stock.
