Salt Lake Tribune - ‘Hundreds of new affordable homes to be built in seven Utah cities’

In a philanthropic gesture aimed at the region’s worsening lack of affordable homes, two Utah-based foundations announced plans Tuesday to build upward of 850 rent-subsidized dwellings in seven cities across the state.

Their joint partnership, called Housing for Impact, will fund construction of apartments and town homes over the next three years at choice locales in Salt Lake City, South Jordan, Draper, Magna, Lehi, Francis and Park City. Many of the housing projects will also be adjacent to community resources for seniors, families and other groups in need.
