The proposed affordable housing project on Lot 700 in Morrison Park in Hood River did not receive funding from Oregon Housing and Community Services in its annual awards of federal monies for those types of projects.  It was the second time the project has been bypassed…but the Columbia Cascade Housing Corporation executive director Joel Madsen said that it is a very competitive process, and it’s not unusual to have to make multiple attempts to be successful.  Madsen says his organization will now assess how its proposal was scored in this round.  Madsen did say part of the assessment will be to find out whether the appeals that have surrounded the project had an impact on not receiving the funding, adding the measure that will be on the Hood River ballot in November requiring a public vote before the City can dispose of public park land will also be taken into account.
