1270万美元建207套入门级住房：罗得岛州公布债券计划最后一轮拨款，九个社区受益、161套售价低于40万美元
罗得岛州纽波特县Middletown市消息：州长 Dan McKee 与州住房厅长 Deborah Goddard 10月29日宣布，州政府拨款1270万美元支持10个住房开发项目，将在全州九个社区共建207套住房。州政府表示，其中由拨款直接资助的161套住房售价低于40万美元，面向收入不高于地区收入中位数120%的家庭。
宣布地点选在 Middletown 的 Aquidneck Green 项目未来场址，该项目获得本轮最大一笔拨款，超过320万美元。开发商 Marathon Development 计划在镇有土地上建造36套三居室模块化住房，其中5套保留给收入不高于地区收入中位数80%的家庭，拟售价353,800美元；31套面向收入不高于120%的家庭，售价399,999美元。
其他拨款包括：朴茨茅斯约210万美元建37套公寓（其中22套由本计划资助）；Providence 与 West Warwick 两地五处场址约210万美元建36套住房；Block Island 建10套两居室住房，每套售价265,000美元；以及把 Lincoln 一座前殡仪馆改建为5套公寓。
这笔钱是2000万美元「住房2030入门级自有住房计划」（Housing 2030 Entry-Level Homeownership Program）的第二轮、也是最后一轮，资金来自2024年选民批准的住房债券。州长办公室表示，本轮过后，该计划预留的自有住房拨款已全部落实。该计划以竞争性拨款与贷款方式，支持营利与非营利开发商及公共住房机构建造五套以上、供自住的单户住宅、联排别墅与公寓。
Goddard 表示，该计划至今已支持377套住房，其中249套对收入不高于地区收入中位数120%的家庭可负担。McKee 呼吁选民在11月3日投票中支持第2号问题（Question 2）；Goddard 说，拟议的2026年住房债券将再投入2500万美元用于可负担自有住房开发。

$12.7 Million for 207 Entry-Level Homes: Rhode Island Awards the Final Round of Its Bond Program Across Nine Communities, 161 Homes Priced Below $400,000
MIDDLETOWN, Newport County, Rhode Island: Governor Dan McKee and Housing Secretary Deborah Goddard announced on October 29 that Rhode Island has awarded $12.7 million to 10 housing developments that will produce 207 homes in nine communities. State officials said the grants directly fund 161 homes priced below $400,000 for households earning up to 120 percent of the area median income.
The announcement was made at the future site of Aquidneck Green in Middletown, which received the largest grant, more than $3.2 million. At Aquidneck Green, Marathon Development plans 36 three-bedroom modular homes on town-owned land: five reserved for households earning up to 80 percent of the area median income, at proposed prices of $353,800, and 31 for households earning up to 120 percent, at $399,999.
Other awards include about $2.1 million for 37 condominiums in Portsmouth, 22 of them funded by the program; about $2.1 million for 36 homes across five sites in Providence and West Warwick; 10 two-bedroom homes on Block Island priced at $265,000 each; and the conversion of a former funeral home in Lincoln into five condominiums.
The money is the second and final round from the $20 million Housing 2030 Entry-Level Homeownership Program, paid for by a housing bond approved by voters in 2024. With this round, all of the bond money set aside for the program's homeownership grants has been committed, the governor's office said. The program gives competitive grants and loans to for-profit and nonprofit developers and public housing authorities to build owner-occupied single-family homes, townhomes and condominiums in projects of five or more units.
Goddard said the program has supported 377 homes so far, 249 of them affordable to households at or below 120 percent of the area median income. McKee urged voters to approve Question 2 on the November 3 ballot, and Goddard said the proposed 2026 housing bond would put another $25 million into affordable homeownership development.
