Habitat for Humanity search ongoing

Local officials are continuing their search for a possible location for an Erin  Habitat for Humanity project.

Town planner Sally Stull re­cently told council she is working with the organization to investigate six possible properties – three in Hillsburgh and three in Erin. Four of the lots, which she described as undersized or oddly-shaped, are own­ed by the town.

Stull said officials thought they had found the perfect lot on the 9th Line in Erin, which is valued at about $120,000.

“It’s a delightful lot,” Stull said, but it’s likely not big enough to accommodate a 2,000 square foot semi-de­tached home (1,000 feet per side), plus septic requirements.

Councillors seemed in favour of directing town staff to continue with an investigation to find a lot.
