The Fort Worth Public Finance Corporation meeting on October 27, 2026, considered sales of city-owned lots for affordable, owner-occupied housing. Staff corrected the agenda’s first item from five lots to two: properties at 1401 Lindsey and 2305 Farrell proposed for sale to the Fort Worth Community Land Trust for $60,000 total. The lots would be sold as-is, with the buyer paying closing costs; the corporation would retain mineral rights. The buyer must sell the resulting homes to households at 80% of area median income through the city’s program or a similar program.
The corporation also considered selling three East Crest Court lots to Trinity Habitat for Humanity for single-family housing. The transcript gives the sales price as $35,000 but does not clearly establish whether that amount applies per lot or to all three. The buyer would pay closing costs and meet the same 80%-of-AMI affordability condition. A motion to approve was made and carried by voice vote; the transcript does not clearly show whether that vote covered both proposed sales. The presentation and discussion contain an inconsistency about the second sale’s council district, which is clarified on the recording as District 5. No other procurement activity was identified.
