Council approves Fort Circle workforce housing plan with modest TIF support

Omaha City Council · August 18, 2026

Summary

The council approved a TIF redevelopment plan to convert three lots into six workforce homes (about 1,600 sq ft) priced around $245,000, using missing‑middle workforce housing funds and about $257,000 in TIF support; construction expected after zoning board approval.

City planning staff described a Fort Circle redevelopment plan that would replat three lots into six single‑family homes, each about 1,600 square feet and expected to sell near $245,000. Bridget Hadley said the units will be built using missing‑middle workforce housing funds from the state and that the project owner, Holy Name Housing under Matthew Kavanaaugh, will pursue the redevelopment with total investment around $1.9 million and TIF support of "a little over $257,000." Council voted 6–0 to approve the TIF project plan.

Alicia Goodwin of Holy Name Housing and planning staff answered council questions about variances needed for narrow lots and a projected zoning‑board date; developers said construction could start after zoning approvals, targeting completion by spring or early summer next year depending on weather.
