The Northern Maine Development Commission has just completed the City of Caribou’s Housing Assessment, pending receipt of any public comment input received on the Plan, which will then be incorporated into the document. This study was funded through a $10,000 State of Maine CDBG Planning Grant. The purpose of this study is to identify housing issues affecting the low to moderate income segment of the population, including the elderly and disabled. It is the City’s intention to then prioritize its housing needs, formulate an action plan and begin the process of addressing those needs. Ultimately, with the Council’s approval, the City will apply for a CDBG Housing Rehabilitation Grant to address a segment of those needs.
Please take the time to review this document. If you have any comments or questions, they may be addressed (in writing or verbally) to:
