HOMES: Townhomes
will be built in
ClearPine
Continued from page 3
Habitat volunteers and staff
have spent hours preparing
for the launch of the project.=
Weed also spoke of the
history of the purchase and
gave an explanation of the
Land Trust model.
All the funds needed for
construction of two of the
four homes have already
been raised. In 2019, donors
James and Sharon Richards
provided a $100,000 chal-
lenge gift to Habitat.
Numerous donors stepped up
to the challenge.
The ClearPine subdivi-
sion was named in honor of
the history of the property. It
was the site of a lumber mill,
last operated as the Lundgren
Mill, which featured the mill-
ing of old-growth ponderosa
timber to produce knot-free
<clear= pine lumber, which
is highly-valued in carpentry.
After the lumber indus-
try9s demise and closure of
the mill in the early 1960s,
ownership passed to Sisters
School District. The school
district realized that the
parcel was not big enough
to site both the high school
and the middle school. So,
in 2005 they sold the land
to Peter Hall, who began the
process of creating a housing
development.
During the zone change
process, the City of Sisters
recognized the great need for
affordable housing and nego-
tiated a development agree-
ment with Hall that included
the commitment to provide
eight designated afford-
able homes in the ClearPine
neighborhood.
Sisters Habitat began
talking with Hall about
partnering to build six of
them. Hall was willing to
sell the lots to Habitat at

Heart of Oregon broke ground on new homes the YouthBuild program will be working on.
below market value, but
Habitat still needed to
come up with the funds.
That9s where Habitat
for Humanity of Oregon
and Oregon Housing and
Community Services
assisted.
The state legislature
approved LIFT funding
for homeownership and
charged Oregon Housing and
Community Services with
developing a program to
get the funds out to Oregon
communities. The program
included a provision that the
homes built with LIFT funds
be perpetually affordable.
Proud Ground, a com-
munity land trust, has pro-
vided technical assistance
regarding the land lease.
Sisters Habitat9s grant pro-
posal was funded in 2018.
Habitat closed on the prop-
erty in October 2019. Jason
Todd Design donated his
time to create the plans for
the homes.
The Executive Director
of Oregon Housing and
Community Services,
Margaret Salazar, sent
congratulations to Sisters
