Stylecraft Homes is constructing a dwelling on the property for the St. Jude Dream Home program to benefit the St. Jude Children s Research Hospital. Richard Kuhn, president of Stylecraft Homes, explains that the St. Jude Dream Home program involves a builder who constructs a home using donated land, labor, and materials. Raffle tickets are sold to the public for a chance to win the home following its completion. All proceeds will be donated to support the St. Jude Children s Research Hospital and its mission. Elimination of the road cash proffer payment would potentially increase the net proceeds to the St. Jude Children s Research Hospital, a 501(c)3 charitable organization. The current cash proffer amount is $9,400 per dwelling unit. Considering the 1 unit included in this case, the current total potential value of the approved cash proffer equates to $9,400. The applicant has requested to eliminate the cash proffer payment.
