Agnes Kehoe Place, aka the Old Hillyard High School, is being restored and turned into low-income housing by the Spokane Housing Authority. Rumors are circulating that it will be used for sex offenders housing, and the rumors are so persistent that the Housing Authority is sending a representative to Hillyard Wednesday morning to talk to the Historic Hillyard Merchants Committee about what's going on.
Just for the record: the housing authority does not allow sex offenders of any kind in its developments.
