During a recent government meeting, a project proposal for a new housing development was presented, focusing on the construction of high-quality, energy-efficient manufactured homes. The project aims to address the local housing crisis by providing affordable single-family homes priced between $300,000 and $350,000.

The developer emphasized that the homes will be multi-section units, built off-site in a controlled environment, and delivered to the site, ensuring they meet the same quality standards as traditional site-built homes. Notably, the project will not include single-wide homes, which are often viewed as less desirable. Instead, all homes will be single-story, minimizing visual obtrusiveness compared to potential multi-story buildings.

The initiative is part of a broader effort to create a consistent and attractive neighborhood, with phases planned for development. The proposal aligns with the town's identified need for workforce housing, a critical issue highlighted by local officials earlier this year. The developer expressed gratitude for the collaboration with town staff and optimism about the project's potential to enhance the community's housing landscape.
