LMLC-RIVERVIEW
Lone Mountain Land Company built its portion of the project with private funding only. Because of this, none of LMLC’s units need to meet the federal income guidelines outlined in the chart above.
LMLC – RIVERVIEW FOR INDIVIDUALS
LMLC – RIVERVIEW FOR BUSINESSES
The three buildings on the east end of campus contain dorm-style suites with private bedrooms. Businesses may lease suites from LMLC as employee housing with occupation anticipated December 15, 2024. The four-bedroom suites will rent for $6,200 per month plus an estimated $550 in utilities. Each suite contains a kitchen, living area, two bathrooms, and a washer/dryer. Because the units are under construction, tours are not available yet.
One Campus, Two Developments
In 2021, the Housing Trust announced its collaboration with Lone Mountain Land Co. to build RiverView Apartments. Construction began in May 2023. Although LMLC and BSCHT shared some infrastructure costs, the two developments used different contractors and funding sources.
