Tampa General Hospital is in line to get nearly $2.7 million for its workforce housing multifamily development.
The Senate has included $2,696,867 for the project in its supplemental funding list, which is commonly referred to as the sprinkle list.
Sen. Jay Collins requested $25 million for the project.
The project would provide approximately 160 units – including one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments – for those earning between 80-120% of the area median income, which the Department of Housing and Urban Development puts at $89,400. Priority would be given to those who work for Tampa General Hospital or its affiliates, including USF Health.
