Benzie County backs Letter of Intent for Homestretch’s Crystal Commons housing project
Summary
The board authorized submission of a Letter of Intent to the Michigan Neighborhood CDBG Grant program in partnership with Homestretch Housing to support the Crystal Commons development; Jesse Wolff answered questions during the motion, which passed unanimously.
The Benzie County Board of Commissioners voted Feb. 24 to authorize county administration to submit a Letter of Intent to the Michigan Neighborhood CDBG Grant program in partnership with Homestretch Housing for the Crystal Commons housing development.
Commissioner Gary Sauer made the motion, seconded by Commissioner Len Mathieu. Jesse Wolff, representing Homestretch, was present to answer questions. The board approved the motion by roll call vote with no dissent.
Why it matters: The Letter of Intent seeks competitive CDBG funding that could support creation or preservation of housing for low- and moderate-income residents in Benzie County. The motion formalizes the county’s partnership with Homestretch as the grant application moves forward.
Next steps: Administration will submit the Letter of Intent to meet program deadlines and coordinate any subsequent grant application materials with Homestretch representatives.
