The project, which includes three (3), duplexes, has been in development for the past three years. The Nebraska Department of Economic Development has awarded a $594,000 Housing Trust Fund Grant for the project. The total project cost is approximately $1.2 million.
PCED provided collaboration and match funding required for the project and assisted with the grant application. The City of Pierce is the grant applicant/recipient. Darin Zuhlke (Zuhlke Properties) is the developer/investor. Koehler Construction is the building contractor.
Work has begun on the first of the three units located on N. Elm Street in the Five Star Addition in northwest Pierce.
