Communal living project for veterans could serve as a model for solving the homeless crisis Bend s newest neighborhood won t have a homeowners association or a lengthy list of bylaws. There won t be any open houses or bidding wars among prospective homebuyers. What it will have is a collection of individuals who have served their country but have since fallen on challenging times. Central Oregon Veterans Village is a chance for them to make a fresh start while living in a community of individuals who are facing similar challenges. With any luck, their stay will be uneventful and short-lived as they transition into stable long-term housing, something that some of the residents haven t had since they left their service careers.
