Muskegon City Commission
Commission Meeting Date: November 25, 2025 Title: Amendment to Froebel Purchase
Agreement
Submitted by: Jake Eckholm, Development Department: Economic Development
Services Director
Brief Summary:
Samaritas is requesting an extension on closing on the former Froebel Schoo! building for the Froebel
Place Apartments project. They are also requesting to split the lot and have the city retain the large
vacant area on Jackson.
Detailed Summary & Background:
With the changes to the scoring system for LIHTC that has been codified this year by the Michigan
Statewide Housing Development Authority, there are 3-5 additional points available for a project in
the event the parcel has been subject to a Request for Proposals to seek redevelopment by the
community in the preceding 24 monihs. In the event that Samaritas closed on the whole property
now, that would not be the case and would make any future application for a new consiruction
phase at Froebel non-competitive. Therefore, staff and Samaritas have prepared the attached
addendum to the original purchase agreement which provides an updated legal description
reflecting the lot split, and also extends the closing deadline to better align with the State Land Bank
Blight Elimination Grant requirements.
