The proposed, affordable housing units planned for the elderly on Barnett Road will have to wait another year, according to Donald Singer, the executive director of the Hernando County Housing Authority, as reported at yesterday's meeting. Mr. Singer reported to the board that the application to the state was fairly low on the funding list so this project would be re-submitted next year. Mr. Singer also indicated several items that help move the project up in funding order and would be discussing these with the project developer. One item included site improvements on the property, with the possible removal of an old house with a scheduled burn by the Brooksville Fire department as a training exercise. Hopefully, next year the Hernando county will have a better opportunity for state funding with this needed housing project for the low income elderly in our community.
