Item Title:Amend Resolution 2021-058 Local Housing Assistance Plan (LHAP)
Date:5/18/2022
Department:OMB/Grants
Background:
The Local Housing Assistance Plan (LHAP) Resolution adopted on April 26, 2021, by Resolution 2021-058 was reviewed by Florida Housing Finance Corporation and it was recommended that Purchase Assistance with or without Rehabilitation be added to the Purchase Strategy. In addition, the Essential Housing Advisory Committee (EHAC) recommended to increase the Purchase Price and the Maximum Award due to the rising price of housing in Nassau County. Both of these recommendations will assist in the purchase of homes and assist the County in meeting the requirements of the SHIP Program. These requests have created a need for a technical revision to the LHAP.
Request:
Approve and authorize the Chairman to sign a Resolution amending Resolution 2021-058 adopted on April 26, 2021, to include the revised LHAP for State Fiscal Years 20/21, 21/22, 22/23.
Financial/Economic Impact to Future Years Budgeting Process or Effect on Citizens:
The LHAP, approved by Florida Housing Finance Corporation is required to receive SHIP funding that assists citizens with purchase and rehabilitation of housing.
