♥ Why this matters

Eight hundred twenty-eight new rental units are coming to Boone, funded by an $11.4 million state disaster recovery grant. That is a real number in a place where rent climbs every year and housing sits out of reach for people who actually work here. The money lands as part of a broader $69 million program meant to rebuild affordable stock. Boone asked for help and got it. Now watch what happens next.
