SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
During the year 2007, the house at 110 South 8 Street directly north of the ONDS offices,
sustained fire damage to the point it was in the best interest of the neighborhood to demolish
it. The out -of -town owner of the house was anxious to sell the property; therefore, ONDS
purchased it and demolished the burned building using $41,950 of HOPE 3 Program funds.
In the ast ONDS has partnered with OIC of Washington in building single-family, I
p p g g affordable
housing in the Yakima city limits. OIC has requested to build at this location, and estimates
the total construction cost for the house would be $150,000. Upon sale of the house, OIC will
pay back $90,000 to ONDS.
ONDS recommends the use of HOPE 3 funds for this new construction. The attached
appropriation includes the construction expenditure of $150,000, and program income of
$90,000.
