Flathead County is eligible for $4.5 million in funding through a state program aimed at addressing workforce housing.
But whether those funds will be available for use in the county remains a decision in the hands of the county commissioners.
The state Legislature in 2023 put aside $50 million to address workforce housing through housing nonprofits by establishing Community Reinvestment Organizations. House Bill 819 created an account to provide funds to such organizations that along with local matching funds would assist eligible households in purchasing deed-restricted housing.
