Hopkinsville man to receive new home

A Hopkinsville man will be the owner of a brand new home, thanks in part to the hard work and dedication of several local officials who made his dream become a reality.

This Thursday, Hopkinsville Mayor Dan Kemp will be presenting Lawrence James keys to his new home, which is located at 126 South Elm Street.

According to officials, James was able to receive a new home through the city’s home improvement plan since his previous home at the same location was deemed beyond repair and been demolished to make room for the newly constructed home.

Officials say construction was made possible by utilizing the Kentucky Housing Corporation GAP Financing Pool funds and from Community Development Block Grant Recovery funds.
