The Housing Authority of Washington County (HAWC) is embarking on a comprehensive renovation at five affordable housing communities called the HAWC AHP4 Portfolio Preservation Project. The communities scheduled for renovation include Bonita Villa, Parkside, Villager, Aloha Park and The Ridge at Bull Mountain. In total, 332 apartments will be modernized to ensure long-term viability and sustainability. This work is wide ranging, and staff has worked with residents on this plan.
Renovations include accessibility modifications, new plumbing, electricity, heating and ventilation systems, appliances, and much more. This project will preserve the affordability of these homes for decades into the future, by leveraging the federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit program which requires the housing be kept affordable for at least thirty years.
HAWC has partnered with development consultants, investors and construction partners to complete roughly $45 million dollars in rehab at these five sites. As the construction has commenced on these five sites, HAWC has been working with its development consultant on a financing and construction plan for the remaining sites.
Residents with questions about the progress can reach the Relocation Team at: 971-268-2742 or [email protected].
