AFFORDABLE HOUSING: Construction is scheduled to begin this summer on 50 units of affordable housing in Fox Farm Village in Bayfield.
The 9.5 acres development takes its name from a commercial fox farm that operated on the site about 70 years ago.
Three non-profits have spoken for 32 of the 50 two and three bedroom units. Housing Solutions for the Southwest will build 14, Colorado Housing Inc. will build 10, and Habitat for Humanity is scheduled to build 8.
Colorado Housing expects to break ground this summer. The units will be built by the buyers, who contribute 600 hours of construction labor under the direction of a contractor.
Habitat for Humanity projects require buyers to supply 350 to 500 hours of labor but the all work need not be on the job site. Home buyers can work in the organization store or participate in events to fulfill their obligation.
