A remarkable collaboration between Partners in Housing, Colorado College, Rocky Mountain Community Land Trust (RMCLT), and several City of Colorado Springs departments allowed for the donation and move of four homes to the west side of the city in a location we call “The Hill”.
Three of these homes were donated to Partners in Housing by Colorado College and along with funding from many sources, the homes were put on permanent foundations and are still used by Partners in Housing today.
Moving these buildings was quite an effort and we thank David Lord (with Colorado College and RNR Foundation), Bob Koenig (then Executive Director of RMCLT), and Dick Conn (then Executive Director of Partners in Housing), for their persistence and hard work! The homes had to be moved overnight because of traffic and utility concerns and, of course, it rained!
