City mulls cash incentives to spur housing growth in Garden City
Garden City officials considered a new cash incentive plan for single family and multi family housing, offering up to 20 000 for seven plexes and larger, 10 000 for triplexes to six plexes, and 5 000 for 1 250 square foot homes with a double garage, funded by a 2 50 monthly utility fee. The program aims to create about 35 new lots yearly but council will hold off action until December after public input. Mayor Doll urged approval noting housing needs. The plan also includes restoring existing lots with installed infrastructure, with incentives on a first come, first served basis. The town will renew BCBS as the health claims administrator with costs around 509 209 to 532 263 annually over Benefit Management Inc. The zoo accreditation news and a town hall set for November 29 were also mentioned.
