Housing project aims to deliver 84 affordable homes in Henderson County
The Housing Assistance Corp. outlines a $9 million plan for 18 single family homes and 66 apartments on North Main Street across from Yon Hill Drive. The SelfHelp program requires sweat equity and budgeting courses, with mortgages limited to 30 percent of income. If tax credits are approved, 100 percent of units would target households at 50 percent of median income. otherwise rents may reach 150 percent of median. The project, tied to Ocklawaha Village, seeks rezoning PRD approval, with construction starting fall 2015 for homes and spring 2016 for the apartments, and includes a transit link to Oklawaha Greenway and town.
