The Bloomington-Normal Community Land Trust [BNCLT] has secured its first home and started the next steps to find a buyer. Since opening applications on July 22, the nonprofit has had 28 applicants interested in the home at 1309 Eastholme Drive, just north of Illinois Route 9 between Illinois Wesleyan University and Bloomington High School. It's the first of what the organization believes will be many homes it will acquire to help address a shortage of affordable housing in the community.
