Description

The City of Gunnison is requesting proposals from qualified developers to create a work force/affordable housing project on property owned by the City of Gunnison, located at 1415 West Tomichi Avenue, and known generally as the “Lazy K” property. Affordable housing has become an acute issue in the Gunnison Valley. The Lazy K site presents the opportunity to advance community housing needs and the opportunity to create a neighborhood park on this land. The City engaged Design Workshop in the early summer of 2018 to develop a Park and Site Plan for this space. The result of this project was a park plan and three sites (1.7 acres, 1.6 acres and 1 acre - totaling 4.3 acres) for future housing sites. The City will be actively pursuing grants to support building the park and is now soliciting qualifications and proposals for creating a housing project. Ideally, the City is looking for a developer who will bring financial resources to build a housing project and receive revenue through the project to finance the project. The City will consider supporting the housing project through the creation of a park around the project and through a public-private partnership with a developer. The City will consider selling/transferring ownership of the housing sites. It should also be acknowledged that the City is currently revising its Land Development Code to incent affordable housing. and is receptive to making potential zoning changes on the property consistent with the City Municipal Code.
