Scattered Cooperative Infill Housing Program (SCIP 2)
Summary
SCIP 2 is designed to redevelop an area between East 11th and 12th Streets and
Branch and Navasota Streets into a revitalized residential community through
the construction of 100 affordable housing units for low and moderate income
families. The project is being implemented by the Anderson Community
Development Corporation (ACDC) with Federal Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) and HOME funds. The project consists of 50 rental and 50 homeownership
units and will be managed by the ACDC and monitored by the City of Austin
Neighborhood Housing and Community Development Office.
Status
Currently, funding for the project totals $2,830,000 provided by the City of
Austin for the acquisition of land and a portion of the construction cost of 52
lower income housing units (35 rental and 17 homeownership). Additional units
are anticipated to be developed contingent upon the availability of funding. A
ground breaking for the first homeownership units occurred on Monday, December
30, 1996.
