The council approved a quitclaim deed for a City-owned lot under the homemakers program, selling a parcel at 2100 Washington Avenue to Tiffany and Reed Foster for $100,000; councilmembers said the project will produce a single-family home and an affordable basement rental restricted at 80% area median income.

The City Council approved a resolution authorizing the mayor to execute a quitclaim deed to Tiffany Foster and Reed Matthew Foster for one parcel at 2100 Washington Avenue (parcel ID 082JX010) under the homemakers program for a contract sales price of $100,000.

Councilmember Amelia Parker described the homemakers sale as an example of using city tools to increase affordable homeownership and rental options.
