AI Summary

  • Establishes a mixed-income subaccount within the Rental Housing Revolving Fund to finance workforce rental housing projects for households earning up to 140% of area median income
  • Creates a separate application process for the subaccount that prioritizes projects with diverse affordability levels, location on state/county land, loans projected to be repaid within 40 years, and gives preference to nonprofit projects when equally ranked
  • Authorizes the Director of Finance to transfer funds from the Rental Housing Revolving Fund into the new mixed-income subaccount
  • Appropriates unspecified amounts from general revenues into the subaccount and authorizes expenditures for fiscal years 2025-2026 and 2026-2027
  • Addresses the gap in funding for middle-income rental housing (60-140% AMI) that is currently unavailable because existing revolving fund moneys are prioritized for low-income housing tax credit projects serving households at 60% AMI or below
