Accept $15,000 grant to help apply for funds to convert Motel 6 into homeless housing
In Plain English
The city is applying for state Homekey funds to buy the Motel 6 at 425 24th Street and convert it into 48 apartments for chronically homeless residents. All Home offered Richmond $15,000 to cover consultant costs for preparing this application. If approved, the grant helps the city compete for much larger state funding to create permanent supportive housing.
