The town board in Davidson Tuesday night approved a plan that will use public and private money to build affordable housing as part of a proposed 81-unit luxury townhome development.
Eight affordable units will be scattered throughout the new neighborhood, which is to be built at the former Hoke Lumber yard off Jetton Street on Davidson s west side. To help the developer build the units:
The town will kick in $400,000 from its affordable housing fund.
Another $400,000 will come from the Davidson Community Foundation.
The developer, Alliance Group, also agreed to discount the home prices by $150,000 per unit.
