Gainesville City Council will consider today whether to move forward on a “workforce housing” development proposed for property adjacent to the Gainesville Justice Center. The Gainesville Planning and Appeals Board voted 3-2 on April 8 to recommend approving the development of a 94,000-square-foot, 90-unit apartment complex on a 2.2-acre site off Queen City Parkway at Banks Street. Mercy Housing plans to construct 21 one-bedroom/one-bath units, 36 two-bedroom/two-bath units, and 33 three-bedroom/two-bath units.
