MIDDLEBORO — The Middleboro Housing Authority announced that lottery applications are open for 11 affordable housing units at the soon-to-open Lex Court Apartment Complex.
Construction on the complex, located at 480 Wareham St., is expected to finish in the fall. Once complete, the development will consist of 44 one-bedroom units. Two of the 11 affordable units will also be wheelchair accessible.
The 11 affordable units are all one-level living, with nine on the ground floor and two on the second level. These one-bedroom units range from 600 to 975 square feet. Rent for all the units will be $1,800 per month plus utilities, along with a $500 security deposit.
Of the two ADA-compliant accessible units, one is 600 square feet and the other is 940 square feet.
To be eligible for the affordable units, single applicants must earn no more than $72,950, while dual-income applicants must earn no more than $83,400.
The housing authority will hold two informational sessions for lottery applicants, one on Aug. 20 at 5 p.m. and one on Aug. 23 at 10 a.m. Both will be held at the housing authority building at 8 Benton St.
Applications for the lottery are due by Oct. 1 and can be picked up from Town Hall, the Middleboro Public Library or the housing authority building.
