Operation of a Non-Congregate Domestic Violence Shelter

The City of Irving is seeking proposals from experienced nonprofit organizations to operate a new non-congregate domestic violence shelter. The selected operator will provide input on the design of the facility, fundraise for operational expenses, lease and operate the shelter during a 15-year federal compliance period, and ultimately take fee simple ownership of the property. The proposal requires mandatory attendance at one of the two pre-proposal meetings. • The shelter will be constructed on City-owned property using a combination of HOME-American Rescue Plan, Federal Community Project, and City of Irving General Fund sources. • The operator will be responsible for fundraising for operational expenses. • The operator will lease and operate the shelter during a 15-year federal compliance period. • The operator will ultimately take fee simple ownership of the property subject to a continuing-use restrictive covenant.
