WARSAW — If selected as a Stellar Community, one of Warsaw’s Stellar plans would be  to encourage investment in affordable housing within the target area and make the neighborhood a vibrant and attractive place to live and play. This program for low-to-moderate income homeowners, led by Housing Opportunities of Warsaw, will offer an affordable option for neighbors to make their homes safe and secure.

The goals are to improve the quality of housing in the neighborhood while helping home owners remain in their homes, serve any families who ask for help that are low to moderate income, provide an opportunity to upgrade and make homes safe for families and seniors, aging in place features for seniors in the neighborhood, opportunity to install features for persons with disabilities, remediate lead based paint hazards in homes, improve the relevancy of the neighborhood by improving the housing stock, build community pride, restore the neighborhood and create desirability and vitality

To provide input for what would like to see in this project, contact the City of Warsaw Planning Department office at (574) 372-9550. For more information on the Stellar Community’s Projects check out the Facebook page.
