Commissioners say Old Hospital property must transfer before developer seeks grants; ask for more 3‑bed units
Summary
The board heard an update on the Old Hospital rehabilitation project and agreed to request two additional three‑bedroom units from the developer; transfer of the property must occur before the developer can apply for grant funding.
Commissioner Jim Gwennap told the board the next step for the Old Hospital rehabilitation is transferring the property to the developer, a step he said is required before the developer applies for grant funding. Gwennap said he asked for input on apartment/bedroom sizes and the board reached a consensus to request two additional three‑bedroom units from the developer to the proposed mix.
Gwennap also said area contractors will have an opportunity to participate in the rehab work and asked interested contractors to contact the commissioners. No dollar amounts or specific grant programs were listed in the meeting minutes; Gwennap’s remarks frame the property transfer as the gating action for the developer’s grant applications.
