County Administrator PHIL BATCHELOR,'CLERK OF County Counsel THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Auditor-Controller AND COUNTY A INISTRATOR Community Development B EPUTY BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDA'T'IONS On April 27, 1999,the Board of Supervisors approved the allocation of$963,750 to the FY 1999/2000 CDBG/HDAF. The purpose of the CDBG/HDAF is to provide resources to assist affordable housing projects that develop during the current program year. Approval of the recommended fund transfers will consolidate existing unused and unallocated housing resources into the FY 1999/2000 CDBG/HDAF to facilitate their use for additional affordable housing development. If all of the proposed fund transfers are approved, the balance of the FY 1999/2000 CDBG/HDAF will be $1,879,172. During the preceding fiscal year,$2 million in CDBG/HDAF funds were used to finance three affordable housing projects which,when complete,will result in the new construction of 221 affordable multifamily rental units in Central and West County. Based on current applications,letters of intent,and discussions with affordable housing developers,the Department has identified potential requests for FY 1999/2000 CDBG/HDAF funds in the range of$2 million, including emergency and transitional shelters,affordable multifamily housing,and a first-time homebuyer project. kkh/k2I/cdhdaf l
