Project partners at the dedication ceremony on 6/27/03 (l to r) Dick Everhart (Director, Ohio Housing Finance Agency), Tom Slemmer (CEO, National Church Residences), Mary Jo Kilroy (Franklin County Commissioner), Michael Coleman (Mayor, City of Columbus), Dennis Guest (Executive Director, Columbus MHA), and Tom Leach (Director of the Columbus Field Office). |
National Church Residences will operate the facility, and the Columbus Community Shelter Board will administer the key social service element for the formerly homeless residents.
HUD's Community Planning and Director in Ohio, Lana Vacha, described it as a, "very good looking project." She noted that the total cost of the project is $7,500,000. Three separate units of government provided HUD HOME funds.
HUD has also granted slightly more than $1 million in Supportive Housing Program funds. The State of Ohio provided tax credit financing and the Ohio Housing Finance Agency granted a $1,500,000 direct loan.
Monthly rent for the units is $487. The Columbus Metropolitan Housing Authority will provide HUD rental subsidies to the residents who require them, based upon their income.
