A trust fund and finance vehicle requiring Council appropriation authority; gated on legal review and a validated fiscal model.
The problem
The teachers, nurses, firefighters, and service workers who keep Tampa running are being priced out of the city they serve. A workforce that can't live here can't stay here.
The plan
A Workforce Housing Trust Fund and finance vehicle will give the city dedicated, durable money to finance homes for working families — filling gaps that private financing alone won't cover.
The fund requires Council appropriation, a validated fiscal model, and legal review before it deploys a dollar, and every investment's results will be published.
How you’ll know it’s working
- Fund established with Council appropriation
- Deals financed through the vehicle
- Working families housed through fund investments
- Leverage of public dollars against private capital
- Published investment results
From the Blueprint
- Seed and governance are a first-year action: funding policy, initial capitalization, and partner alignment.
- Funding stack: linkage and fee set-asides, partner contributions, municipal bonds, and federal housing grants.
- Two city parcels move into long-term ground-lease and land-trust pilots.
- Owners: the Real Estate Division and City Planning.
