LiveREADI Request for Proposal (RFP) – The Evansville Region recognizes the need for additional housing to grow and retain population. Further, the Region prioritizes increasing diverse housing choices at different price points in locations that support employer-employee needs and preferences. Utilizing an RFP process to award READI funding within the LiveREADI category as an incentive, the goal is to increase the supply of housing near downtowns and major employers, target the housing mix to reflect the jobs mix, and create equitable housing opportunities.
