HUD, Tribe strike unique agreement...
Demonstration
On a quiet and peaceful hill about
five miles north of Warm Springs
lies a housing subdivision that is al
ready dotted with 11 tribal member
homes, built or placed their since the
creation of the subdivision in 1990.
The Sunnyside Housing subdivision
will, within the next several months,
be the site of construction of another
1 1 or 12 "demo project" homes. All
in all, 30 homes will be built through
the unique housing project. The
balance of the homes will be built in
other subdivisions or on privately
owned land on the reservation.
Over the last three years tribal
credit, tribal housing, the Local
' Housing Authority and the regional
office of Housing and Urban Devel
opment (HUD) developed an unusual
agreement through which HUD .
would provide funding sufficient
enough for 10 new homes on the
reservation. The Tribe proposed that
the monies earmarked for construc
tion be usedas down payments for 30
new homes, with the balance pro- i
vided through loans with the credit
department. An agreement was struck
and each of the 30 new homeowners
received $20,000 through HUD for
their down payments. Five-percent, ,
30-year mortgage loans were ar
ranged through Credit. Monthly
payments will average between $250
and $300.
"This is probably the first time
'HUD has used private money to
complete such a project," said Ex
ecuuve HUD Director Jerry Leslie at
groundbreaking ceremonies July 9.
"It is a model project and could have
an impact on how housing is deliv
ered to Indian people throughout the
United States....This is a tremendous
thing you people are doing out here."
Leslie explained that housing
programs for Indian people were es
tablished in 1934, but it wasn't until
the late 1950s that a Senate Select
Committee found housing conditions
among Indian people to be "deplor
able." It was at that time the commit
tee determined that 60,000 housing
units were needed. The first HUD
house was built on the Rose Bud
Sioux Reservation in South Dakota
for children
gest and encourage, but don't direct
activities. Allowing your child to use
their imagination and be creative this
summer will be rewarding for you as
a parentguardian and will help your
child have some great learning fun.

The Skyline Project Interdiscipli

line and the old Campbell line, and

Dominant geographic features in this
area are Summit Butte in the north,
and the lower slopes of North Pinhead

as a 1993 timber sale and would be
housing project to provide 30 new homes
in 1961. HUD has built 80,000 units
since that time.
"The need now is 90,000 more
homes. We're losing ground," said
Leslie. "The need is outstripping the
availability. That's why we need
these types of projects. With this
kind of project, we can prove we can
meet the need....The basic problem
is there isn't enough money" to go

Statement associated with acquisition
of the land and to allow the State to take
public comment Most of those who
provided testimony favored keeping
the road access limited and permiting
limited motorboat use
and the local economy. "It keeps
money circulating in Warm Springs
and it increases the number of jobs
within the community." Tribal Con
struction was selected to build the
homes.
Manion said the future looks
bright there are currently 700
homes on the reservation with a big
waiting list for rental units. Within
the next 15 years, there could be as
many as 1,400 homes within reser
vation boundaries. "We have to look
at other ways to provide housing for
tribal members," he concluded. "This
is one of those ways."
