The Arizona Department of Housing (ADOH) is holding a meeting to discuss the development of housing for homeless veterans on the Fort Whipple Veterans Administration campus in Prescott.

The purpose of the meeting is for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to provide information on the project concept and requirements for an upcoming Request for Proposals (RFP) that the VA will issue in order to select a developer that may enter into an Extended Use Lease (EUL) Agreement with the VA. The EUL will make available the use of land on which to build newly construct housing units, as well as the use of six former officers’ quarters, which may be renovated for the same use.

The meeting will be held at the Arizona Department of Housing offices, located at 1110 W. Washington Street, Suite 250, Phoenix, Arizona 85007, from 1 to 3:30 p.m. MST on September 9. ADOH has committed to work with the VA’s selected developer to identify and secure financing resources for this project.

The following agencies will attend:

  1. U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
  2. Arizona Department of Housing
  3. Arizona State Historic Preservation Office
