Eden Village is one step closer to placing 63 chronically homeless people into their own tiny homes.2 News started following this village when officials announced it. Eden Village workers and volunteers are now dropping the tiny homes onto their foundation. They'll use a crane to pick up nine homes throughout the day and put them onto their foundation.The nine residents approved to live there are going to be one step closer to their forever home.2 News talked to Brad Johnson, president of Eden Village, in July for an update.Were ready to go. We need to get everything permitted and finished, so after we get the first pod of nine done, we will keep building pods going east, so were hoping to have 36 or 45 done by Christmas," Johnson said.WATCH: In July, they laid down a new form of asphalt with grids and rock that saved money and is better for the environment: EDEN VILLAGE: New pavement project is largest in the stateThe village also completed its community center for the residents.They were hoping to be at this point of dropping houses back in September.
