Board approves two additional housing bond projects, citing lower per‑unit costs on one
Summary
The commission approved two housing bond loan items: Residences at Martin Manor (extension of Dixie Manor) and WAVE at Potapkin (99‑year affordability), with commissioners praising a lower per‑unit county contribution on one project and passing both 6–0.
Palm Beach County commissioners approved two additional housing bond loan projects on Aug. 25, 2026: Residences at Martin Manor (an extension/expansion of the Dixie Manor affordable housing development) and WAVE at Potapkin.
Housing staff said Residences at Martin Manor added units and reduced the county contribution per unit compared with some recent projects; the board praised that structure. The WAVE at Potapkin loan was presented as a larger investment with a $10,000,000 county contribution and a 99‑year affordability period. Both items were approved by voice/roll‑call votes (each passed 6–0).
Commissioners noted these projects as examples of using bond programs to expand affordable and workforce housing while balancing project financeability and long‑term affordability requirements.
