Winter Park City Leaders Approve Housing for School Staff on OCPS Land

Winter Park city leaders have taken a significant step to address soaring housing costs by approving single-family homes on Orange County Public Schools land. The city is working with Habitat for Humanity to build homes specifically for school staff at the old Orange Technical College site on West Webster Avenue. This move aims to help teachers and school workers in Central Florida, who are struggling with rising prices and long commutes, to live closer to their jobs. The project will involve a small portion of the property with a limited number of homes, with the district still finalizing details on eligibility and implementation.
