Body
Background:
At the May 30, 2024, CRA Board meeting, pursuant to Section 163.380, Florida Statues, the CRA Board authorized CRA staff to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Disposition of CRA-owned Vacant Lots (Subject Properties) for the Development of Affordable/Workforce Housing.
Disposition of the Subject Properties helps the CRA meet one of its core objectives of providing additional affordable/workforce housing opportunities within the CRA District. Furthermore, as identified in the CRA’s Redevelopment Plan, developing the Subject Properties would also fall in line with the redevelopment strategy for the residential neighborhoods north and south of West Atlantic Avenue (Northwest and Southwest Neighborhoods of The Set) which includes construction of infill single-family housing on vacant lots.
The Subject Properties (all located within CRA Sub-Area 4) included within the RFP are listed in the below table.
