Town donates 1904 Tennyson Drive to Homeless Coalition for single‑family build
Summary
Council approved Resolution 2025‑R25 to donate property at 1904 Tennyson Drive to the Homeless Coalition of Southern Indiana, which will partner with Pathway of Hope and KGF Homes to build a new single‑family home; the Economic Director said the closing occurs tomorrow.
The council voted to donate the property at 1904 Tennyson Drive to the Homeless Coalition of Southern Indiana, which will partner with Pathway of Hope and KGF Homes to build a single‑family residence on the lot. Staff noted the recipient entity has changed several times during this year but that the resolution tonight names the Homeless Coalition as the transferee.
Economic Director Tammy Gibson told the council the closing was scheduled for the next day and that partners are ready to begin construction. "The closing will happen tomorrow for the property to change hands... So they're ready to go with building the home on 1904 Tennyson," Gibson said. Staff said the Homeless Coalition will coordinate with partner organizations and return to the council with project updates as construction proceeds.
Council members referenced past donations to Habitat for Humanity and characterized the measure as a way to add housing and new neighbors to the community. The resolution passed unanimously.
