Mississippi Issues RFPs for Workforce Housing Programs

The Mississippi Development Authority (MDA) is seeking proposals for a $5.5 billion program to develop long-term workforce housing in the areas of the state most affected by Hurricane Katrina.

The housing initiative will be financed through community development block grants (CDBG) from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

MDA has put out a request for proposals (RFPs) to develop single-family and multifamily rental and homeownership workforce housing programs for residents in Hancock, Harrison, Jackson and Pearl River counties in Mississippi.

The deadline for proposals is 2:00 p.m. CT, Friday, Nov. 2.

For-profit and non-profit enterprises and individuals should mail their responses to:

Mississippi Development Authority
501 North West Street
E.T. Woolfolk Building, Suite 600
Jackson, Miss. 39201.
