See attached plot diagrams. Yakima Valley Partners proposes to construct a home on each lot in partnership with families whose incomes are between 30 and 60% of the median income for Yakima County. The homes would be purchased by the families using a no interest loan from Habitat for Humanity. Each family would be required to invest a minimum of 500 hours of "sweat equity" on their home before they begin occupancy. The homes would be constructed by Yakima Valley Partners utilizing our construction staff, volunteers from the community, the family and their friends and relatives, and AmeriCorps construction volunteers. We are currently engaged in the home owner selection process for 2010. Our intent is to identify families for these lots. The floor plans and number of bedrooms are dependent on the needs of the families selected; therefore we are unable to provide specific floor plans at this time. However we expect to build homes that are between 1000 and 1200 square feet with 1 1/2 or 2 bathrooms. We except to have these homes complete with a Certificate of Occupancy on or before December 1, 2010. We are currently in negotiation with the sellers of these lots. Each of these lots will be purchased for no more than $22000 per lot. The cost of the lot on 908 5th Ave includes an existing garage and will be included as a detached building sold with the home we construct. The cost of the 1518 Fairbanks Ave property includes the demolition and removal of the three blighted homes that currently exist on this property. All three of these lots have water and sewer already accessible on the property and will require a maximum $3000 per lot in infrastructure development. These costs include: 1. Removal of the frees on the 1518 Fairbanks property. 2. Installation of a new water meter if required by the City. 3. The cost of hooking up water and sewer lines. To enable us to replace these blighted and vacant lots with three affordable homes within the city of Yakima we would ask the following: • $22,000 per lot for purchasing the land (total $66,000) • A maximum of $3000 per lot for the cost of infrastructure (total $9,000) • The total. grant request is $75,000 If you need additional information, please contact me.
