The town of Great Barrington, Massachusetts has approved a plan to build 14 to 20 affordable housing units in the village of Housatonic.
At Wednesday night’s virtual Affordable Housing Trust Fund meeting, the green light was given to Central Berkshire Habitat for Humanity to pursue the project on North Plain Road. Trust Chair Bill Cooke applauded Habitat CEO Carolyn Valli after the unanimous vote.
“Congratulations, Carolyn!” said Cooke.
“Thank you very much,” responded Valli. “We re ready to start planning. We actually, on Thursday, we re starting to put together our South County Housatonic Planning Committee. So if anybody that s on the line right now who’s interested in joining a committee please feel free to reach out to me because we would love to have you.”
