Published: February 16, 2015

Housing authorities in Washington and Greene counties will receive $1.4 million from the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development to make large-scale improvements to public housing, the department announced Thursday.

Stephen Hall, executive director of Washington County Housing Authority, said several projects are or will be in the works in various parts of the county for the $1,404,312 allocated. He enumerated:

A roof at Frederick Terrace, Fredericktown;

Roof, siding and windows for Maple Terrace, Washington, where a siding project was started under a previous grant;

Ventilation system and a new trash compactor that would be used by all residents of Nathan Goff Apartments, North Charleroi;

Security cameras;

Some window replacement at Lincoln Terrace, Washington.

After those projects are considered, well see what money is left and well decide from there, Hall said. Well be doing planning. We will have to get an architect involved with some of this.

The earliest Washington County Housing Authority can access the money is April 21.
