The Bloomington Plan Commission has approved a new 12.5 acre Habitat for Humanity Community called Osage Place.
Osage Place would have a total of 69 homes.
The Bloomington Plan Commission said the new Habitat for Humanity Community includes providing owner-occupied, single-family housing adjacent to other single-family residences.
Habitat for Humanity of Monroe County’s mission is to eliminate poverty housing by building decent, affordable homes in partnership with qualifying families. Habitat houses are built through volunteer labor and tax-deductible donations of money and materials, then sold to low-income families who pay off a mortgage.
There are no known natural, scenic, or historical features of significant importance on this site, according to the Bloomington Plan Commission.
