Plans are moving along for the construction of a building in Breckinridge, Colorado that would house the offices of three local nonprofit organizations.
The structure will go up in what is known as the McCain property, land located on the northern end of the town at the intersection of Colorado State Highway 9 and the Coyne Valley Road.
The building will measure 15,000 square feet and will be built on a reserved 5-acre section of the larger 128-acre property. The town purchased that property two decades ago for $1 million.
That land is own by the town of Breckinridge. An updated master plan for the larger property has recently been adopted to allow for the construction of more affordable housing.
Officials with the nonprofit Family and Intercultural Resource Center, the Summit Community Care Center, and a group called Building Hope, have all said they’d like to share space in the new building, creating in the process a nonprofit campus.
Before any construction can begin, the project will require a formal agreement between the three nonprofits and the town.
