Goodrich-Seniors may soon have a new option for low-cost living in the village.
Karl Zeigler, pastor of Goodrich United Methodist Church, 8071 S. State Road, said a deal was in the works to sell approximately six acres of church-owned land at 10407 Hegel Road to a Troy-based developer for $1, for use as affordable senior housing.
Zeigler says he anticipates the new development would consist of about 50 one-and two-bedroom apartments costing less than $500 per month. Additionally, Zeigler hopes to provide two meals per day, prepared in the kitchen of the church’s new family life center, to seniors in the facility.
‘There became a very clear sense that quality apartments for seniors were not available in our community,? said Zeigler.
Senior housing committee co-chair Ken Nylander agreed.
