State Pitches In $2 Million For Klamath Vets Housing

Google Street View
The intended vets' housing complex.

Eight new housing units for veterans are in the works for Klamath Falls, thanks to a grant from the Oregon Department of Housing and Community Services. 

$2 Million will buy and renovate a building on East Main Street, give veterans places to live, and NOT require a money match from the Klamath Housing Authority or Klamath & Lake Community Action Services

Housing for vets is an ongoing issue in Klamath Falls and many towns in the region.  Diana Otero of KHA and James Lindsay of KLCAS put the new project in perspective.
