Explanation
§ The Charlotte Housing Authority (CHA) is requesting that City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the issuance of multi-family housing revenue bonds for West Tyvola Apartments, a 200-unit affordable housing development located at 2394 West Tyvola Road. Located in District 3, the project will include 120 workforce housing units and 80 apartments for senior residents.
§ Adoption of this resolution is required by the governmental unit with jurisdiction over the area where the development is located in order to satisfy Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Service Code of 1986. This action will not obligate the City financially or impact the Community Investment Plan.
§ The CHA bonds, which are not to exceed $6 million, will be used to finance land acquisition and construction.
§ This development supports City Council’s commitment of achieving 5,000 affordable housing units within three years as outlined in the Community Letter.
Background
§ On September 25, 2017, City Council approved a Housing Trust Fund allocation of $5.6 million for the development’s construction.
§ In January, the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency also approved a four percent tax credit and a bond allocation capacity totaling $6 million for the project.
