Gov. Jim Douglas joined housing representatives, residents, local and state officials in cutting the ribbon on Meadowlane Apartments in Milton yesterday.
The project, originally built in 1980, includes 20 newly-renovated units and an additional 16 units of new affordable housing.
"Not only is this property affordable, but it's designed to use a renewable energy source — solar panels — that'll heat the water and contribute to environmental conservation," said Richard Williams, Executive Director of the Vermont State Housing Authority.
