Monadnock Housing Development Fund Launched!
After hearing stories of local people’s struggles, MIP’s Housing Team has been working diligently for two years to get a fund established that incentivizes the building of housing to increase the Monadnock region’s affordable housing stock.
We are thrilled to announce that in the collaboration of the Monadnock Economic Development Corporation the fund is now a reality! Proposals are welcome for multifamily constructions, accessory dwelling units, small development, subdivisions, resident-owned communities, basic infrastructure in support of housing, and other similar projects.
For details about the fund and to download the request for project proposals click here: Monadnock Housing Development Fund RFP.
Much gratitude to everyone who has been active in MIP’s Housing Team. Your persistence has led to a new, innovative opportunity for all of us in the Monadnock region.
