PAYTON GALL, KSJB LOCAL NEWS –
Ellendale is building a new housing development with 20 pre-built houses and a 35-unit apartment complex to accommodate employees of Applied Digital, a growing employer in the area.
Headwaters Development, a Minnesota-based company, worked with Applied Digital for this project, of whom are the first to utilize North Dakota’s new Rural-Workforce Initiative to Support Housing, which provides financial assistance to developers building housing in growing communities with populations under 20,000.
The houses, pre-fabricated offsite, are expected to be delivered this month, and ready for occupancy come spring, at which time the apartment complex will be delivered in sections.
The success of this program’s pilot will determine its future funding and continuation beyond Ellendale.
