ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
2618 W. Fairview Ave. – LOCAL Fairview – PP Type 2: Subtext plans to construct this seven-story, 271-unit, mixed-use project. The development will have approximately 8,500 square feet of ground floor commercial space with the existing Capri Restaurant retained and incorporated into the design. The public improvements eligible for CCDC reimbursement include streetscapes along Fairview Avenue and 27th Street. Utility upgrades and expansion work include upgrading and undergrounding power, new underground fiber, and phone lines, and expanding the sewer mainline. Total Development Costs are estimated at $81 million, and Eligible Expenses are $1.2 million. The Board approved a final agreement in April 2023. Project Lead: Corrie Brending
114 N. 23rd St. – New Path 2 – PP Type 3: This second phase of New Path, a permanent supportive housing development, is comprised of 96 multi-family units and space for ancillary support services. This project is being developed by Pacific West Communities, Inc. with Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) and support from the City of Boise. This development will provide housing for individuals and couples exiting homelessness or facing homelessness and earning less than 60% of the area median income for Ada County, though residents will be earning substantially below this. There is an estimated $250,000 in eligible expenses for streetscape and public utility upgrades. The Board approved a final agreement in October 2023, and construction of New Path 2 began in October 2024. Project Lead: Corrie Brending

The Finch is a Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) project that includes a mix of unit types and affordability levels ranging from 30% to 60% AMI, with 10% of units at market rate. Public improvements will include scored concrete sidewalks, silva cells, street trees, and historic streetlights along W. Fairview Avenue and S. 27th Street. The Board designated the project for Type 1 assistance at the August 11, 2025, meeting. The Board approved the final agreement on November 3, 2025, and construction is underway.

INFRASTRUCTURE
West End Commercial Blocks: The West End Commercial Blocks project is a multi-year strategic investment developed through collaboration with public and private stakeholders. The project is focused on building the public infrastructure and transportation facilities necessary to support the evolving neighborhood’s continued growth. The initial phase of this project centers on a comprehensive assessment to identify where infrastructure improvements are most needed. Specifically, the assessment will evaluate opportunities to better support existing commercial businesses and upgrade transit and mobility options throughout the area. The Agency published the Request for Qualifications last month to hire a pre-qualified design team. Over the span of six months, the team will conduct a structured assessment culminating in a final report that recommends public investment opportunities and helps CCDC prioritize future construction projects within the area. Project Lead: Megan Pape
