Comment on Palm Beach County takes next step with $200 million in affordable housing funds

A batch of developers have applied for shot at a portion of the $200 million pool of funds set aside for affordable housing in Palm Beach County as hundreds of new affordable housing units may come into the pipeline. County Commissioners this week approved funding for three projects that would pull from the bond: — Calusa Point II, an affordable 168-unit multifamily housing project in Belle Glade, which requested about $7.56 million. — Community Land Trust, which would bring four single-family villages with two units each for eight total units in various sites across Lake Worth Beach.
