Right now, the Clarkfield EDA apartments have an eight-person waiting list. That is eight people who are looking for housing in Clarkfield, but they can’t find any. Without housing available, where are they going? Granite, Monte, other towns. Clarkfield is in need of more housing for individuals and for families.

It’s not a lot, but it’s a good start to get the EDA moving in the direction to provide more housing in town.
