City Council discussed the future of the Mahoney school at its April 16, 2024 meeting. The South Portland Housing Authority and City Staff presented to council about potential uses for the property. Both presentations included affordable housing as a critical component, with SPHA proposing to develop Mahoney and other City properties that might be sold as a mix of housing (including many affordable units). The City proposed to retain the Mahoney property and consolidate City offices into a campus at Mahoney while selling properties that would be vacated, like City Hall, the Hamlin Building, and potentially the Library, for the creation of housing.
