TIDA outlines resident relocation timeline; several large moves expected in 2028
Summary
TIDA staff reported progress on relocating legacy and Treasure Island households as new affordable buildings come online. Staff said 75 households have taken in‑lieu payments to move off‑island, several interim moves are planned this summer and a cluster of transition opportunities is expected when family and senior buildings complete in 2028.
TIDA staff presented an update on housing transitions on Treasure Island, describing current household counts, the use of in‑lieu payments and an expected schedule of transition units as new affordable buildings are completed.
Staff reported that the island’s household mix has shifted since January 2023 as new buildings were occupied. “To date, we have 75 households that have taken the in lieu payment and moved off of the island,” the presenter said. Staff said another 21 households have taken partial in‑lieu payments and moved members off the island.
The board was given a multi‑year outlook for transition‑unit offers. Staff said the senior building is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2028 and will include six inclusionary units and units affordable to lower incomes (staff cited capacity down to 20% of area median income for some units). A 150‑unit family building (IC 4.3) slated for 2028 is expected to include 30 transition units for Villages residents; staff said that combined moves into buildings planned for 2028 would accommodate a substantial share of current legacy households. Another 150‑unit building (E2.3) was described as part of a later stage to complete remaining relocations.
Staff described operational constraints that have slowed some interim moves: the Transition Housing Rules require a 120‑day notice process and when households decline or become ineligible after notice, staff must restart relocation procedures with a new set of households. That process has contributed to several rounds of notices for a small set of units and explains why five units at Starview Court remain vacant while notices work through the process.
Staff also described coordination issues tied to infrastructure delivery and building timelines and said several interim relocations will be scheduled this summer to take buildings offline as part of the larger neighborhood transition. Staff said they will run targeted outreach to potential senior building residents in advance of the 2028 completion and continue to coordinate with developers and service providers, including Catholic Charities and John Stewart Company on partner roles for the family building.
Board members asked for additional briefings on project teams and financing as the 2028 schedule matures and requested notice when potential rule changes (Transition Housing Rules) that affect eligibility and affordability strategy are proposed for board consideration.
