DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
On August 20, 2019, the Board approved Marion County’s 2019-2023 five-year Consolidated Plan and subsequent Action Plans for the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME). On March 11, 2021, Congress enacted the American Rescue Plan, providing additional HOME funds (HOME-ARP) to support the acquisition, construction, and renovation of facility projects and affordable housing for qualifying populations.
On July 3rd, 2024 the Board of County Commissioners approved an agreement with Wear Gloves, Inc. to acquire and renovate a building located at 2001 SW 3rd Avenue to provide transitional housing and non-congregate shelter for unhoused persons in the amount of $1,035,000. Due to unforeseen renovation cost, this amendment is requesting up to an additional $100,000 and extends the performance period to September 30th, 2025
This project aligns with the objectives outlined during the Community Services Workshop held on May 29th, 2024, and complies with the requirements of the HOME-ARP program. Wear Gloves, Inc. will contribute $265,731 in matching funds toward the project.
