DENVER – Today, Gov. Jared Polis, the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade (OEDIT), and Colorado Housing and Finance Authority (CHFA) announced the selection of 11 new housing developments that will receive funding from voter-approved Proposition 123 Concessionary Debt funds. Recipients are projected to create 728 multi-family rental units, including apartments and townhomes, for individuals and families earning low and moderate incomes in Clifton, Colorado Springs, Denver, Idaho Springs, Leadville, Sterling, and Wheat Ridge.

"We are delivering on housing Coloradans can afford. Proposition 123 awards expand housing options and grow stronger communities across the state, creating more opportunities for Coloradans to live close to jobs, schools, and in communities we love," said Gov. Jared Polis.

The funding announced today predominantly supports the development of low- to middle-income housing that qualifies for federal Housing Tax Credits. Among the recipients, the amenities and services provided include supportive housing and services for individuals and families transitioning out of homelessness, housing for older adults, trauma-informed design, proximity to early childhood education centers and larger units for families. All are transit oriented or walkable to jobs and community services. One will convert a vacant building historically used for dorms into housing with shared kitchens, and four developments intend to use Colorado-produced, factory-built construction.

"OEDIT is thrilled to support essential new housing that will provide safe, stable homes for low and middle income individuals and families along with new community amenities that improve quality of life. Delivering this much-needed housing now is a critical step in supporting a thriving Colorado economy and strengthening local communities across the state," said Eve Lieberman, OEDIT Executive Director.

"From supportive housing for those exiting homelessness to housing for older adults to homes for families, these developments reflect the diverse housing needs of Colorado communities. Together, they will expand opportunities for Coloradans with a wide range of incomes and needs," said Thomas Bryan, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of CHFA.

A total of $25,674,500 has been preliminarily approved, with final award details to be determined during the underwriting process. The proposed Area Median Incomes (AMI) supported by the recipients range from 30% to 120% AMI. Selected recipients include:

• 1139 Delaware, Denver - $3.5 million: Located in Denver's Golden Triangle neighborhood, 1139 Delaware will provide 80 supportive housing units for individuals and families at 30% AMI who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness. The development will incorporate trauma-informed design and provide on-site supportive services, and the site is located near public transit and jobs.
• Crawford Commons Apartments, Clifton - $2.4 million: This 60-unit community will serve households between 30% and 80% AMI.

• Montbello Townhomes Phase I, Denver - $1.45 million: Will provide 39 rental townhomes for residents earning 30% to 60% AMI, with an emphasis on serving larger households including multi-generational families and households at risk of displacement.

Amenities include a fitness center, community room and children's room, pet wash, bike parking and family-focused indoor and outdoor gathering areas. This will be the first development to use Colorado's Middle Income Housing Tax Credits authorized by the state in 2023 and issued by CHFA.

• The Commons at Mosaic, Denver - $6 million: Located on the historic Johnston & Wales University campus, renamed the Mosaic Community, this 58-unit rental community will serve individuals and families earning between 30% and 60% AMI and who are at risk of or transitioning out of homelessness. These Permanent Supportive Housing units will have access to shared kitchens and the Mosaic campus will offer gardens, childcare and family play areas, bike storage and indoor/outdoor common spaces.
