On 7/16/25 the City Council voted 10-1 to allow the City to sell the Hope Street lot for the purpose of building housing there. This vote allowed the City to request proposals for housing (an RFP) from developers.
Some residents signed a petition seeking to overrule the Council vote. That effort was defeated on November 4th, so Greenfield will now move forward with seeking housing on this lot.
The next steps include developing an RFP with public input. See Hope Street flyer for dates, times, and locations, but substitute 3/11 from 5-7 at the Y for 3/3 that was snowed out. There will be 4 public meetings plus extra “office hours” with Amy Cahillane around town and by Zoom. Two initial public meetings will be before drafting an RFP. The draft RFP should be available for discussion around late March, then another pair of public meetings will be April 2nd & 8th before the RFP is issued around late April 2026.
