2.-R. ID 26-819 ***RESOLUTION - Authorizing application for and acceptance of funding from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development's FY26 Pathways to Removing Obstacles to Housing Grant Program to fund the development of affordable housing and authorizing the City Manager or designee to sign all necessary implementing documents (Subject to Mayor's Veto)
Request clarity before approving $10M PIP application for Chinatown housing.
Staff report describes scattered-site mixed-income rental/ownership housing on City or Housing Successor property.
Questions:
Where exactly are sites in Chinatown?
What does mixed-income mean and what AMI levels?
What % units at 30/50/60% AMI?
What are "other eligible activities" and how much funds go to construction vs other uses?
Will funds be leveraged with other financing? If so how?
Concern: Chinatown has high need; funds must prioritize lowest-income residents and avoid displacement tied to redevelopment.
Request answers before approval and commitment to transparency and deep affordability.
you do not leave enough room to really ask what i wanted to in detail so I will send and email also.
