TruVest Noncompliance on Bayard Park Drive Parcels
Summary
A 2023 trust fund loan to build affordable homes on Bayard Park Drive has gone unpaid since December 2025 after contractor problems derailed a sale. The committee gave a 90-day extension but demanded in-person accountability — and members admitted oversight of the loan had been too loose for years.

Six parcels in the 500 block of Bayard Park Drive aren't being developed as promised and carry delinquent taxes and weed/trash liens. TruVest says it's self-financing now and will clear everything by June 12.
