Roswell city officials agreed Monday to distribute $100,000 in federal funds to Habitat for Humanity, allowing the non-profit organization to purchase a townhouse and make it available to a deserving family.
The money will come from the federal department of Housing and Urban Development, through Fulton County.
The property under contract is at 243 Mill Creek Place, in a townhome community off Holcomb Bridge Road. The closing is scheduled for Dec. 15, said Russell Hayes, chief executive officer of Habitat’s North Central Georgia chapter.
The organization also hopes to acquire a home this year on Teal Court in the Martin’s Landing neighborhood, to make available as an affordable rental, Hayes said. The Roswell City Council is expected to consider contributing $100,000 for that property in its meeting next week.
