Our work with the Cheyenne River Housing Authority since 2012 has been rewarding and challenging! Their long term vision and tenacity has been formational in our thinking about how to best serve rural communities.
North of Eagle Butte a section had been developed years ago - and was stalled because of the lack of capacity for new water taps. When this issue was resolved regionally, the property opened back up for new development. Over the years we’ve helped plan the overall development housing plan, a half dozen or so different block developments, community centers, and housing types, and been available to provide graphics and grant support wherever we could.
It is filling in! Each new development helps resolve the housing crisis in Cheyenne River and is a testament to the hard work of the CRHA staff and leadership.
