The City of Coeur d'Alene has partnered with St. Vincent de Paul by providing a long-term land lease for approximately three acres of city-owned land located at Neider Avenue and Fruitland Lane. St. Vincent de Paul received a HUD 811 grant with which they constructed a 15-unit multi-family complex in the summer of 2009. St. Vincent de Paul also intends to construct a 37-unit complex on the same property in 2010, utilizing funding from HUD 202 grant.

In support of the housing projects, the City extended Neider Avenue from Fruitland Lane to Howard Street, constructing the infrastructure necessary to support the projects and meet the City's development requirements. This includes a City contribution of $600,000 toward infrastructure, in addition to the $160,000 allocated from the CDBG (Community Development Block Grant) funds toward design services and right-of-way acquisition. St. Vincent's investments and grant funding include a $1.4 million 811 grant with an additional $1.3 from IHFA (Idaho Housing and Finance Association), for the 811 project. The CDBG funds are utilized in support of the 811 project, with the $3.4 million for the planned 202 project.

Completion of these two facilities will increase affordable housing opportunities for residents with special needs, by providing 52 new rental units.
