Sheboygan County’s Economic Development Corporation has submitted a workforce housing proposal for nearly 25 acres in Sheboygan Falls.
Previous studies have identified housing, childcare and labor force skills training as top workforce challenges facing Sheboygan County families and employers.
The 24.88 acres would provide up to 49 single-family homes in the first phase and additional lots for other multi-unit single-family dwellings in Phase 2.
To help remove barriers to home ownership, the SCEDC created The Forward Fund, thanks to some corporate donors, to serve as a continual financial arm to support the development of entry-level homes.
If approved, construction will begin in late fall with most of the development advancing in early 2023.
