Housing Fund Grant Commission Memorandum REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: Kristin Donald, Finance Director SUBJECT: Resolution 5220 Amending the FY21 Budget to increase the Community Housing Fund appropriation for $500,000 for funding affordable housing project grant. MEETING DATE: November 24, 2020 AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Action RECOMMENDATION: Approve Resolution 5220 Amending the FY21 Budget to increase the Community Housing Fund appropriation for $500,000 for funding affordable housing project grant. SUGGESTED MOTION: I move to approve Resolution 5220 amending the FY21 Budget to increase the Community Housing Fund appropriation for $500,000 for funding affordable housing project grant. BACKGROUND: The original budget included appropriations for grant agreements for $515,000 and was amended by the Commission October 6, 2020 to include addition $225,000 to fund additional affordable housing project grants. Based on the grant agreement on the consent agenda and additional $500,000 in appropriations is needed to fund: HRDC renovation projects Darlinton Manor and Boulevards, serves low-income seniors and people with disabilities. Residents pay 30% of their income towards rent in 88 of 100 apartments. HRDC intends to ensure the remaining 12 homes are affordable by adding place-based Section 8 vouchers to those homes. There are 41 subsidized rental homes in The Boulevards Apartments, serving low-income people with disabilities and seniors. Tenants pay 30% of their income towards rent. Due to their desirable locations in Bozeman, apartments in both buildings were at real risk of converting to market rate homes. HRDC is working to convert the current federal subsidy contract, which requires annual renewal, to a 20-year Housing Assistance Payment Contract. HRDC combined both Darlinton Manor and Boulevards renovation projects into the same Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) application. This resolutions increase the appropriations and would be covered by fund balance. UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the Commission 239 FISCAL EFFECTS: This resolution will amend the current budget reducing the Community Housing fund by $500,000 reducing the FY21 estimate ending fund balance to $266,514. This is lower than when we were in front of the Commission October 6, 2020 due to better estimates of cash-on-lieu, which is expected to be much lower that estimated during budget planning.
