On October 25 the Arizona Department of Housing (ADOH) issued an Information Bulletin announcing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Development of Veterans Housing in Prescott. ADOH is available to meet with developers to discuss the potential funding sources that may be made available for the RFP for Development of Veterans Housing in Prescott. Please send conference requests (phone or in-person) to karina.jajou@azhousing.gov.

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) will select a developer that may enter into an Extended Use Lease Agreement for property at Fort Whipple in Prescott to develop approximately 40 units of supportive housing for senior, homeless and at-risk veterans.

ADOH has committed to work with the VA’s selected developer to identify and secure financing resources for this project. ADOH has set aside at least $3 million in State Housing Trust Funds for construction and a to-be-determined number of Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing project-based vouchers for rental assistance.
