A $8.5 million housing project in Breckenridge, a joint project by the town and Summit County, is expected to welcome its first tenants this summer.
The 26-unit Huron Landing apartment complex is the first split partnership of its kind between the two municipalities. The region is struggling to house the local workforce. The rentals will require that tenants work a minimum of 30 hours per week in the county and meet specific income and application parameters.
Completion is set for June 30, about a year after construction began. A housing lottery is scheduled to open June 1. Half of units will be dedicated to employees of the Upper Blue Basin, as defined as Farmer’s Corner to Hoosier Pass.
Preliminary suggestions put monthly rent at $1,550 and $1,700.
