Sokaogon Chippewa tribe receives grants for affordable housing

MOLE LAKE - The Sokaogon Chippewa tribe in Mole Lake got tax credits and two grants to help build new, affordable houses.

The tribe got the credits from WHEDA, the main contributor for the projects.

The more than $800,000 of grants will help offset construction costs. They got the grant from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. About half of that will be used to build 24 new houses. The other half will be used to renovate a vacant motel in town.
