An affordable workforce housing project on the Golden Gate Golf Course that was expected to start construction in July hit another delay after the Department of Housing and Urban Development still hadn’t approved its funding commitments. 

Collier County commissioners on May 28 voted 4-1, with Chairman Chris Hall voting nay, to approve a fourth extension to Rural Neighborhood’s Renaissance Hall at Old Course, which expects approval of its first mortgage loan guarantee in June. The first extension was granted on Oct. 24, 2023, and this vote extends it to June 30. 

“This would be the last extension that I think you’ll need for getting this project done,” Commissioner Burt Saunders told commissioners, noting that the developer has made significant progress.
