WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jeff Bingaman reported that the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is releasing $584,400 Bingaman secured in a fiscal year 2010 spending bill for an affordable housing project in Silver City.

The Town of Silver City will use the funding on the construction of the Vistas de Plata – a 56 unit affordable housing project.
