Madison funds bridge housing through Dairy Drive tiny homes, scattered-site rapid rehousing, and permanent supportive housing partnerships. The Dane County Continuum of Care, led by the Homeless Services Consortium, allocates HUD funding under the McKinney-Vento Act.
Madison's bridge housing portfolio includes the Dairy Drive sanctioned settlement of insulated cabins, hotel conversions like the Tree Lane and Rethke apartments, and scattered-site rapid rehousing through Porchlight and The Salvation Army. The Dane County Continuum of Care, staffed by the Homeless Services Consortium, runs the coordinated entry system that prioritizes households for openings under HUD Continuum of Care and Emergency Solutions Grant rules. Madison's CDA funds operating subsidies and the City contributes capital through CDBG and Affordable Housing Fund allocations. Wisconsin Act 76 does not affect these public projects, which operate under federal law. Building Inspection still enforces habitability standards.
Program terminations must follow HUD due-process rules; tenants of permanent supportive housing receive Wis. Stat. Ch. 704 protections plus program-specific grievance procedures.
