\"\"On S. Lansing Street
\nOn Wednesday, February 22 the City of St. Johns sold their first vacant lot to Habitat for Humanity of Clinton County for the purpose of constructing a new home this summer for a low income family in need of adequate shelter.
\n“We are so pleased to be building in St. Johns for the first time, “said Sue Carroll, Executive Director. “We have built homes for families in Maple Rapids, Laingsburg, Wacousta and Ovid, but never before in the heart of the county that we represent. We felt it was the right time for this project.”
\nThe lot, located on Lansing Street just south of Townsend Road, is an ideal location for a family because of its close proximity to local churches, merchants and all the St. Johns schools.
\n“The St. Johns City Commission and City staff is excited about Habitat for Humanity’s acquisition of city land for its next residential home build,” said Dennis LaForest, City Manager. “We hope this is just the first in many Habitat homes to be built in our community. New construction and adding a new family with children attending local schools is the kind of growth that keeps our city healthy. We definitely consider this a ‘win-win’ moment for St. Johns.”
