Machesney Park – In Machesney Park, a number of low-income elderly residents are living in substandard housing built half a century ago. However, the village has a program that could help. Interested parties have until this Friday to apply for money to fix up their houses. WNIJ's Christopher Hosken reports.

For information about Machesney Park's HomeForward grant program you can contact Penny Olsen at 815-877-5432.
