Description
The Jefferson Metropolitan Housing Authority (JMHA) requests qualifications from professional developer(s) to partner with JMHA and the City of Steubenville to finalize and implement the housing element of the Steubenville North Choice Neighborhood Plan. Information on the Choice Neighborhood Plan can be found here: www.steubenvillechoice.com.

Working with the team, the developer(s) will be expected to design for replacement housing units and other affordable and market-rate types; coordinate housing activities with residents, JMHA and City staff; and take the lead in securing local, state, federal, and private funding in support of the redevelopment efforts. Following completion of the Transformation Plan (December 2024), we intend to apply to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for a FY 2025 Choice Neighborhood Implementation Grant (CNI).

The Plan will be centered on the redevelopment of JMHA’s John F. Kennedy Apartments and Elmer White Family Units, which includes 206 units of low-income housing in total. The CN Plan will seek to replace 100% of those housing units within the neighborhood as part of new mixed-income developments. In addition to the 206 JMHA units, we are anticipating approximately 294 additional affordable and market rate units, for a total of approximately 500 units overall.

How to Apply
Qualifications shall be submitted electronically with a subject titled “STEUBENVILLE NORTH CHOICE NEIGHBORHOOD REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES". All Qualifications must be received no later than 5:00 pm local time on March 1, 2024. All proposals will be valid for ninety (90) days. Submit Qualifications to the following address:
