LANCASTER –The Coos County Commissioners yesterday approved submitting an application for a $500,000 Community Development Block Grant to redevelop the Bartlett School in Berlin into apartments.
If the application is approved, $475,000 would go to New England Family Housing/TKB Properties for the project. The remaining $25,000 would be retained by the county to cover administration costs for the grant.
