 Frisco and the Colorado Department of Transportation broke ground last week on a 22-unit workforce housing project being developed collaboratively between the municipal and state governments.

Granite Park, the project under construction at 619 Granite St., will consist of five studio units, 11 one-bedroom units and six two-bedroom units. Half of the units will be available at affordable rent levels for CDOT employees, while the other half will be for employees that work for other businesses in Frisco. All the units will be deed restricted at less than 100% of the area median income.

“Workforce housing has been a pressing need for Frisco and Summit County for many years and has reached crisis level over the past few,” Mayor Hunter Mortensen said. “It is this crisis which will require creative partnerships like this one if we are going forward into the future to have the people working and living in our communities we so desperately need.”
