“The organization has already spent a lot of time on design and the site plan for where homes will go,” said Tim Flanagan, owner of The Flanagan Companies. “All in all, the project in entirety should only take about 12 to 16 months,” he said.

The Flanagan Companies has been specializing in energy-efficient, affordable residential and commercial construction in Alachua County for more than 25 years. Construction for Gainesville Cohousing is expected to begin in early 2015.
