Meeting Ashland Problems of pro viding adequate housing for persons more than 65 years old were outlined at a meet ing of the Ashland Chamber of Commerce this week. Speakers were Mrs Velma Jones, chamber secretary, and Mrs. Fred Rankin, Medford, a member of the Oregon Coun cil on Aging. They said plans for a village of 100 units for senior citizens was being con sidered. Mrs. Jones noted that under recent legislation, FHA loans may be obtained for construc tion of low-rental housing for senior citizens. A sponsoring group is required to provide 10 per cent of the capital in vestment, either in cash or property. She said the Jackson Coun ty Council on Aging is giving consideration to a 100-unit rental development and seve ral sites at Eagle Point and Rogue River. Mrs. Rankin pointed out that such a development would provide modern, com fortable living at a rental cost which a couple on pension could afford. Such a village would include some cottage type structures for couples, anoFsmaller units for men and women who have no families. She said the county council hopes to get at least one such unit started in the future. .
