The City purchased eight properties for the Bee Branch project in the 2200 -2300 blocks
of Washington Street, due to the need to take a portion of the rear yards for the
realigned right -of -way. The houses are each being fully renovated, in preparation for
their re -sale to income - qualifying homebuyer families. The seventh of these, located at
317 -319 East 22nd Street, has been completed and an offer to purchase has been
received. The property was renovated at a cost of $126,267. Development of this
property was funded as part of the Bee Branch Creek Restoration Program, the Lead
Paint Hazard Reduction Program and Neighborhood Stabilization Program Funds. This
property will be an owner - occupied duplex.
Housing and Community Development Department Director Alvin Nash recommends
the City Council authorize the sale of property located at 317 -319 East 22nd Street to
Danielle L. Minnick for the appraised value of $95,000. As a requirement of the
Neighborhood Stabilization Program, the purchase price can only be the appraised
value or actual rehab costs, whichever is the lesser of the two. All properties must be
sold to income - qualifying buyers (earning less than 80% area median income)
according to the terms of the Neighborhood Stabilization Program and the Lead Paint
Hazard Reduction Program.
Financing to Danielle L. Minnick will be provided through a first mortgage from Dupaco
Community Credit Union and Neighborhood Stabilization Program funds.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.
