The donated “Toaster” structure, now successfully relocated to the city-owned parcel on Davis Street, is an example of a creative solution to the need for local workforce housing. Remodeling of the “Toaster” to provide kitchen facilities, HVAC and a front entry is needed before the donated structure can be occupied. A preliminary estimate of the direct costs to complete the remodel is $133,236. The application for Forever Idaho Grant funds will request support specifically for the kitchen portion of the remodel. While no direct local match is required for the grant, the balance of funding will be provided by city budget allocated to local housing from Local Option Tax and FY23 general fund appropriations. A preliminary cost estimate and concept floor plan for the “Toaster” interior remodel are attached. More information about the Forever Idaho Grant Program can be found at: idahocf.org  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve submittal of a Forever Idaho Regional Grant application for local housing and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
