ST. GEORGE — Cradled by Zion National Park, Springdale has long struggled with affordable housing. But a new town partnership could move the issue forward for workforce housing opportunities.
Mayor Barbara Bruno told St. George News that Springdale is fortunate to be working with Mountain Country Home Solutions and through Community Land Trust to develop workforce housing.
"Mountain Country Home Solutions has 29 years of experience in projects such as ours," Bruno said. "They plan to offer ownership and rental opportunities to people who work in the town of Springdale or Zion National Park. We look forward to welcoming the buyers and renters of those housing units into our community as full-time residents."
Tom Dansie, community development director for the town, told St. George News that affordable housing has been an ongoing goal of the town's general plan.
