August 25, 2026 Housing and Redevelopment Authority Meeting

The City of Bloomington Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) held a meeting on August 25, 2026, where key procurement and budget matters were discussed. The HRA approved the 2025 audited financial statements, which reported a clean audit opinion with no significant compliance or internal control issues. The board selected Civil Site Group for civil engineering services related to the St. Mark's redevelopment site, awarding a contract up to $96,100 for site design and engineering work to support affordable homeownership development. Additionally, the HRA awarded 10 project-based vouchers to Common Bond Communities for their Bloomington Family Town Homes property, following an RFP process that received one application. The board also approved preliminary budgets and levies for 2027 and 2028, setting a preliminary levy below the maximum allowable amount at $3 million. Discussions included leveraging grant funding, staffing considerations, and ongoing affordable housing initiatives. Motions to approve the audit, contract award, voucher allocation, and budgets were all passed unanimously.
