You could soon see more affordable single-family homes being built in the near future pending the approval of a new development agreement on Tuesday. 

The City of Sturgeon Bay has been working with Joe and Paul Shefchik of J & P LLC to create a workforce housing subdivision to the tune of $970,000. The city would use money from the proposed TID and remaining funds from the American Rescue Plan Act and TID #1 to help support the project in addition to the possible creation of a 10th tax increment district. Under the development agreement with the Shefchiks, approximately 24 homes between $270,000 and $305,000 would be built. The developers are open to restrictions such as the amount the homes could be sold for and limiting the purchasers to be Door County workers. Additional language has also been added to deter home buyers from quickly flipping the house and making money on the transaction.

The Sturgeon Bay Common Council will also hear an update on the Door County Granary, consider an intergovernmental agreement with Door County on improvements coming to Duluth Avenue, and create a new local transportation board when they meet Wednesday at 6 p.m. inside the council chambers.
