Arizona Department of Housing 2013 Information Bulletin REGARDING PROGRAMS: Rental Development REGARDING FUNDING SOURCES: Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program INFORMATION BULLETIN No. 01‐13 ISSUED: January 15, 2013 RE: 2013 Qualified Allocation Plan In response to the recent passage of H.R. 8, American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, ADOH is proposing an adjustment to the Qualified Allocation Plan for Governor Brewer’s review and approval. The proposal is to extend the application deadline by two months from March 1, 2013 to May 1, 2013. As the Internal Revenue Service has interpreted that H.R. 8 does not extend the 9% Credit Rate to 2014 LIHTCs that are forward allocated, the revised version also clarifies that the 2013 Set‐Asides will be for:    Two (2) Permanent Supportive Housing Projects as defined in the QAP; One (1) Project located in a Rural Area as defined in the QAP; One (1) Project located on Tribal lands as defined in the QAP; unless Congress extends the 9% Credit Rate to 2014 LIHTCs. The 2013 Non‐Profit Set‐Aside was satisfied through the forward allocation of 2013 LIHTCs in 2012, and would not apply in 2013 if the 9% credit rate is not extended to 2014 LIHTCs. The Arizona Department of Housing will post Information Bulletin(s) on its website as updates become available on this issue.

Final amounts were provided by HUD as of today and are listed below. The method of distribution for these funding sources remains unchanged from the 2013‐2014 Annual Action Plan. CDBG The total FFY2013 CDBG allocation is $9,560,059. The State retains 2% plus $100,000 or $291,201 for administration and 1% or $95,601 for technical assistance activities. Additionally HUD mandates that the state expend 10% of its total allocation or $956,006 for projects located in areas designated as Colonias. The remaining adjusted allocation is divided into 85% or $6,984,663 for Regional and 15% or $1,232,558 for State Special Projects (SSP). The COG Regional allocation is as follows: CDBG Allocation by COG Region NACOG WACOG CAAG SEAGO Total Allocation to Rural COGs $ $ $ $ $ 2013 Allocation Amount 1,610,324 2,096,436 1,904,126 1,373,777 6,984,663 2013 Allocation Share 23.0551420% 30.0148470% 27.2615360% 19.6684750% 100% Both the Colonias and SSP set‐asides are accessed through competitive applications.

The CDBG SSP competitive application round will be announced thru a future NOFA. HOME The total FFY2013 HOME allocation is $4,357,825 of which 15% or $653,674 must be set aside for Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO) project funding. The HOME method of distribution for all funds will be available statewide through a competitive application process. NOFAs are distributed throughout the year and include information describing the specific activities to be funded and amount of funding available for those activities. HOPWA The total FFY2013 HOPWA allocation is $221,444. A total of 10% or $22,144 of the grant award will be used for administration of which the state retains 3% ($6,643) and the remaining 7% ($15,501) will be used by project sponsors. The remaining 90% or $199,300 of the grant award will be spent on direct service provision through housing providers in the 13 non‐entitlement counties. ESG The total FFY2013 ESG allocation is $1,203,097 which is administered by the Arizona Department of Economic Security (DES). A total of 7.5% or $90,232 is retained by DES for administration. The remaining 92.5% or $1,112,865 will be used for ESG eligible activities to benefit persons experiencing homelessness.

All documented evidence of Public Participation process where the project for this SSP application was selected must be submitted. Please refer to the CDBG Application Handbook (Rev. Apr. 2013): http://www.azhousing.gov/ShowPage.aspx?ID=387&CID=16 Selection of Project Awards Projects will be selected for SSP funding by a competitive process through which applications are scored. Applications that are complete and have met all applicable threshold requirements with be competitively scored with the highest scoring applications receiving awards until available funds are exhausted. Scored applications will be kept on file for one year and the next highest scoring application will be funded only if funding becomes available through recapture or de‐obligated CDBG funds sufficient to award the additional project. The goals of the rating system are as follows: • Ensure fairness in competition for the grants; • Increase the objectivity of the reviews; and • Provide grantees with more information on how to write a competitive application. The application rating system places additional emphasis on: targeting the most low‐ moderate income people and communities; determining the need for the activity; past performance of the applicant and/or administrating agency; and cost effectiveness of the project. There is a minimum score requirement of 70 points. Any applications not scoring the minimum 70 points will not be considered for funding. Please review Part II, III & IV of the ADOH CDBG SSP Rating Tool FY2013 carefully.

ADOH will only distribute CDBG Regional Account Funding Agreements for execution by Units of General Local Government (UGLG) after Environmental Review clearance has occurred and an E‐13 Authority to Use Grant Funds has been released. Applicants will have 120 days following receipt of the Funding Award Reservation and Contingency Letter (Award Letter) to complete an Environmental Review after which the Award Letter will be rescinded and the application will receive no further consideration. Exceptions to the 120 day deadline may be granted for circumstances out of the UGLG’s control. ADOH advises all UGLGs that have 2013 Regional Account applications pending to begin their ERRs promptly.

These limits will remain in effect until HUD issues new limits. Statutory Changes to the HOME Program require the 203(b) limits to be set at 125 percent of area median purchase price therefore Participating Jurisdictions can no longer use the 203(b) limit as the HOME program value limit. The new HOME value limit for existing housing to be used for owner occupied housing rehabilitation is 95 percent of the median purchase price for the area based on Federal FHA single family mortgage program data and other nation‐wide data on the sales of existing housing. For further information regarding HUD’s policy change and methodology please visit: https://www.onecpd.info/resource/2312/home‐maximum‐purchase‐price‐after‐rehab‐value/ The new HOME Maximum After‐Rehab Value Limits for Arizona are established by HUD and listed in the table on the following page. These limits are effective immediately and apply to any HOME assisted owner occupied housing rehabilitation not already in process (bids awarded, under construction). 1 HOME Homeownership Value Limits ‐ FY 2013 (95% of Median Value) 95% is calculated by HUD, grantees are to use the posted number for the unit type.
