Council OKs grant to help Zarah housing
Goal to bring affordable apartments downtown
council meeting at city hall
Members of the Great Bend City Council meet in City Hall Monday night. This marked the first meeting at City Hall since the council moved its meetings to the Events Center last Spring to allow for better social distancing due to COVID-19. Among the agenda items was the city’s application for a Moderate Income Housing Grant through the Kansas Housing Resources Corporation for apartments in the Hotel Zarah building.
To help continue the effort to bring more housing to Great Bend, the City Council Monday night approved applying for a Moderate Income Housing Grant through the Kansas Housing Resources Corporation. The action was taken at the request of Great Bend Economic Development Inc. to develop affordable housing in downtown Great Bend’s iconic Zarah Hotel building.
