Wampanoag pursue affordable housing
March 12, 2010
MASHPEE — The Mashpee Wampanoag tribe's housing commission is moving forward with plans for a 51-unit affordable housing development off Meetinghouse Road.
The tribe is currently conducting a search for an affordable housing consultant, housing department director Alice Lopez said.
The consultant will help the tribe apply for grants and complete the permitting process needed to break ground.
The need for affordable housing among tribe members is "major," Lopez said.
Applications from consultants are being accepted through the end of the month, when a volunteer committee will make a hiring decision.
