Frankfort Township Upgrading Senior Apartments Amidst High Demand
Frankfort Township is moving forward with significant upgrades to its senior apartments to meet modern standards, Supervisor Nick George announced at Monday’s board meeting. The improvements come as the township faces a waiting list of 100 people for the housing units, underscoring a strong community need.
George reported that the township is systematically renovating the apartments as they become vacant. The latest project includes installing new flooring, cabinets, and adding enhanced safety amenities to the showers.
“We are upgrading one of the senior apartments with new flooring, cabinets, and safety amenities in new showers,” George stated during his board comments. “We will continue these upgrades when the apartment becomes vacant.”
The demand for these units highlights the crucial role the township plays in providing affordable housing options for its senior population. The 100-person waiting list suggests that the need for such housing far outstrips the current supply in the area.
In addition to the apartment upgrades, George noted he is working on the township’s 2025-2026 budget and audit. He also mentioned a meeting with a contractor or developer identified as “Harbour” regarding recent changes to floor plans for a project, though further details were not provided.
The combination of ongoing renovations and high demand places the township’s senior services as a key priority for the board.
