The Salem Housing Authority actively promotes affordable housing in the City of Salem by providing tax exemptions to businesses that engage in partnership with us. This initiative has successfully led to the establishment of eight previous partnerships, contributing to the growth of our community’s affordable housing options.
The Salem Housing Authority and Green Light-Home LLC have successfully established a special limited partnership to acquire and construct an affordable housing project consisting of 120 units. This project will be named Gussie Belle Commons. Together, the Salem Housing Authority and Green Light-Home LLC are excited to announce this collaboration, which underscores our commitment to improving housing accessibility within the community.
As of December 4, 2024, construction has commenced. We are pleased to inform the community that the development team is targeting occupancy as early as mid-2026.
