The Lincoln City City Council has been working on a $750,000 deal with Helping Hands Re Entry for the last 10 months to bring transitional housing to Lincoln City.
Under the deal, the City will purchase two buildings — located on NE 34th Street — for the use of transitional housing for $400,000 and give a rehabilitation loan of $350,000 to nonprofit Helping Hands in an effort to aid Lincoln City’s homeless population.
The Lincoln City Planning Commission unanimously approved a conditional use permit applied for by the City on Dec. 3.
The public is invited to comment on the purchase and sale during the 6 p.m. regular city council meeting Dec. 9.
