Affordable housing bond
City leaders have proposed the $95 million bond as part of a larger plan to help the Durham Housing Authority redevelop several of its downtown properties into mixed-income neighborhoods, among other projects to stabilize neighborhoods and reduce homelessness. If passed, the city says it would cost the owner of a home valued at $230,000, the city’s average, about a $37 per year on their tax bill.
