Date postedNovember 7, 2023
Five local and tribal governments in eastern North Carolina are getting a total of $43 million to build affordable housing in areas devastated by major hurricanes.
The final round of federally funded grants through the North Carolina Office of Recovery and Resiliency (NCORR) Affordable Housing Development Fund is going to single-family and multi-family housing developments in Bladen, Duplin, Jones, Pamlico, Pender and Scotland counties.
"The big picture goal of our affordable housing program is to help increase the supply of safe affordable housing in the areas that were most impacted by hurricanes Matthew and Florence," said Tracey Colores, NCORR's director of community development.
