RDA conditionally approves Hmong American United Green Bay for surplus building with six‑month funding plan requirement
Summary
The RDA conditionally approved awarding the surplus building RFP to Hmong American United Green Bay for 401/419 Houston Street, requiring the organization to return within six months with a viable funding and maintenance plan before final transfer.
The Redevelopment Authority conditionally approved Hmong American United Green Bay as the preferred respondent to an RFP for a surplus property on Houston Street but required the organization to return within six months with a plan demonstrating financial capacity to maintain and operate the building.
Staff said two strong proposals were received and that the Latin American United proposal scored higher on the staff scoring matrix; however, staff recommended conditional approval of the Hmong American United Green Bay application with a six‑month requirement to show sustainable funding and a maintenance plan. Board members expressed concern the building needs repairs and that long‑term funding must be demonstrated before turning the property over to a community operator. The board voted to conditionally approve the award and directed staff to work with the group and return with a concrete plan within six months.
