These projects involve building new homes on city-owned land and repairing or rehabilitating owner-occupied homes. The program is funded by $4.6 million in federal money and aims to provide housing for families earning up to 120% of the county's area median income.
Contractors in the pool will later be invited to bid on individual projects. For each project, the Newnan Urban Redevelopment Agency (NURA) will provide either a detailed list of repairs or house plans for new construction. Contracts will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
