The newly constructed units include a mix of duplexes and fourplexes, with four one-bedroom homes; four two-bedroom homes; eight three-bedroom homes; and four three-bedroom homes that are handicap accessible. All 20 households are income restricted to 40% Area Median Income.

The new homes are designed to withstand Wyoming’s harsh climate and provide affordable, comfortable homes for tribal members. The project’s units are located in a cul-de-sac that also needed extensive redevelopment including paved parking, curbs and gutters, development of a central green space area, walking paths and sidewalks connecting the residents to each other and common amenities.

Eligibility for Tigee Village

Tigee Village Details

  • 20 bedroom units.
  • Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)
Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)

Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
