Tribe Awarded HUD Funding for
New USDA Building
The Siletz Tribe received notice
April 8, 2005, that Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) has awarded it
$500,000 under the Indian Community
Development Block Grant Program for
construction of a new USDA food distri
bution warehouse.
The new building will be located on
the Dundas property east of the city of
Siletz on Logsden Road on the site next
to the tribe's fleet storage area.
The building will be approximately
6,300 square feet with a raised founda
tion to accommodate the unloading of
distribution trucks. The plan is to have a
large enough area for trucks to enter and
exit quickly and safely.
The plan calls for a warehouse area
for adequate storage and movement of
product, plus a demonstration kitchen,
waiting room, nutrition education class
room area, and intake offices.
The building will be designed to be ADA
compliant with proper access for disabled
tribal members and their families.
The project will begin shortly with
work on the water and sewer infrastruc
ture and site preparation.
