Cortes Community Housing
It takes a community to raise a village.Together, we are fulfilling the dream of affordable stable year-round rental housing for community members of all ages. The Cortes Island Seniors Society has purchased a 51 acre parcel close to downtown Mansons, and CIBATA, the local business and tourism association, now own the adjoining 2.6 acre commercial lot capable of supporting local business enterprises.
