5. NEW BUSINESS
A. Things to consider when evaluating applications for funding – Bob Pawlikowski and
Kristin Fritz
• Kristin Fritz and Bob Pawlikowski led a discussion regarding key factors to consider
when evaluating affordable housing projects as it pertains to the competitive process.
Factors included but were not limited to alignment with adopted City policy, AMI (Area
Median Income) levels being served, cost per unit, readiness of a project to proceed,
and land costs associated with a project.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING BOARD
REGULAR MEETING
10/5 /2023 – M I N U TE S Page 2
• DISCUSSION:
• Is there anything you would consider a “red flag” when looking at a housing application?
It’s important to consider if the population being served by the project is being
accommodated properly. For example, a senior housing project that doesn’t have an
elevator would be a red flag. It’s also important to consider the AMI level being served
and access to transportation and amenities. Generally, lower AMI levels are more
dependent on public transportation so it’s important to consider if projects serving those
populations are being built along transit corridors.
• Do nonprofit developers have the ability to build less expensively without the assistance
of subsidies, grants, and tax credits when compared to for-profit developers?
Sometimes the housing authority has tax-exemptions on construction materials for
nonprofit developers and that can have a small impact. If for-profits are vertically
integrated (meaning they are the contractor, architect and most times the lender for their
project), their construction costs will appear much lower because they are able to
absorb overhead fees. For-profits are structured differently than nonprofits who have to
pay a contractor who sets their own fees. Nonprofits completely depend on developer
fees to function while for-profits have different guarantees built in.
• Do banks ever do cross-collateralization, or will they only give loans to the subject
project?
Tax-credit programs are very shielded. They will require the agency to have liquidity
requirements and collateral for the loan. They will only lend for specific instances.
B. City Strategic Plan – Sue Beck-Ferkiss
• Sue Beck-Ferkiss explained that the Budget and Finance Department is asking each
Board to describe what their strategic outcome area means to them and what kind of
projects they think would be funded under their respective outcome area. The
Affordable Housing Board’s strategic outcome area is Neighborhood Livability and
Social Health. The Board used the following terms to describe their outcome area:
affordable housing, housing choice, access to public transportation, bike paths and
other non-vehicle transportation access, access to food, parks and green space, the
ability to live where you work and play, air quality, equity, social diversity, physical and
mental health, overall wellbeing, access to schools, and safe communities.
C. Affordable Housing Board 2024 Work Plan – John Singleton, Board Chair
• The 2024 Work Plan is very similar to the 2023 Work Plan but does incorporate some
changes and new ideas such as focusing more on populations with special needs,
understanding funding sources and development initiatives, evaluating the effectiveness
of development incentives, learning more about the land bank, prioritizing education to
the public and City Council, more involvement at City Council meetings and with other
Boards and Commissions, and prioritizing the community’s effort to end homelessness.
• The November meeting will be used to review changes to the draft work plan and
AFFORDABLE HOUSING BOARD
REGULAR MEETING
10/5 /2023 – M I N U TE S Page 3
finalize the document.
• The Affordable Housing Board Work Plan is due to the Clerk’s Office at the end of
November.
D. External Board Communications – John Singleton, Board Chair
• John Singleton reminded the Board that he and Bob Pawlikowski will be meeting with
the Senior Advisory Board on October 11 to discuss what the Affordable Housing Board
does as well as affordable housing in general. He asked Board members to share
anything they would like them to discuss with the Senior Advisory Board, or if they had
any ideas on how affordable housing can contribute or align with the goals of the Senior
Advisory Board.
• The Board discussed how the installation of accessibility equipment (such as grab bars)
could be incentivized in senior housing projects. They also discussed the possibility of
gathering qualitative feedback from seniors in the community regarding their needs,
their thoughts on affordable housing, what they are seeing/hearing about the availability
of and access to senior housing, and persistent issues seniors face when trying to
obtain affordable housing.
E. Board Member Ideas
• None.
6. BOARD MEMBER REPORTS
a. Meeting Logistics
• The Board will continue to have hybrid meetings for the remainder of 2023.

City of Fort Collins
AFFORDABLE HOUSING BOARD
2024 Work Plan
The Affordable Housing Board (AHB) will make recommendations to the Council on
policy and programing to guide the City’s efforts to reach the goals of the Housing
Strategic Plan in addition to assisting with the implementation of the Housing Strategic
Plan.
Demand for affordable housing continues to outpace supply in the City. The AHB will
focus its efforts on increasing and preserving the City’s affordable housing inventory
and providing support to consumers of affordable housing by taking the following
actions:
• Promote implementation of the 26 strategies contained in the Housing Strategic
Plan including those incorporated from the 2015-2019 Affordable Housing
Strategic Plan:
o Strategy 4.1 – Increase the Inventory of Affordable Rental Units
o Strategy 4.2 – Preserve the Long-term Affordability and Physical Condition
of Exiting Stock of Housing
o Strategy 4.3 – Increase Housing and Supportive Services for People with
Special Needs
o Strategy 4.4 – Support opportunities to obtain and sustain affordable
homeownership
o Strategy 4.5 – Refine development incentives and expand funding sources
and partnerships
• Work with City staff and stakeholders in providing input on implementing the
updated Housing Strategic Plan to preserve and increase housing options across
the spectrum, meeting the needs of all Fort Collins residents. The Board will
continue to prioritize funding for residents making no more than 80% AMI while
encouraging more housing options for all City residents. For rental housing, the
Board will prioritize funding for residents making no more than 60% AMI.
• Work with staff on implementation of City Plan, as it relates to housing, to ensure
and increase affordable housing options will meet the needs of all Fort Collins
residents through the City’s long-term planning horizon.
• Continue to play a critical role in the Competitive Process by reviewing all
affordable housing proposals and meeting with the Human Services and Housing
Funding Board (HSHFB) to discuss specific proposals and share priority rankings
with them and the City Council.
• Continue to work with staff to review and evaluate the effectiveness of the City’s
current incentives to developers to produce affordable housing units, and
recommend modifications, new incentives, and building code revisions (including
increasing capacity and considering zoning) to City Council. Also continuing to
work with staff to provide input on the Land Use regulations update – phase 1
focusing on housing and organization and the implementation of the resulting
updated code.
• Continue to investigate incentives to preserve the current available stock of
affordable housing including consultations with staff and the Neighborhood
Services Department on mobile home parks and keep apprised of Council’s
priority on the preservation of manufactured housing communities.
• Assist staff in reviewing the Land Bank program’s implementation and potentially
recommend changes to improve the program.
• Review proposed policy, regulations, and code provisions regarding development
(e.g., Metro Districts, development fees, density) to provide input to the City
Council on the impact of these issues on housing affordability.
• Research and educate City Council and others on issues affecting affordable
housing and on the potential for additional and current funding sources for the
City’s various affordable housing funds to provide financial resources to affordable
housing programs and projects.
• Keep apprised and advise staff and Council when considering whether the City
should impose an affordable housing impact fee and/or inclusionary zoning or
other dedicated on-going source of revenue..
• Advocate for the need for housing affordability for the entire spectrum of wage
earners in our community, specifically:
o Engage with City Council through written and oral communication
o Attend other public meetings including visiting with other City Boards and
Commissions to stress the important relationship between economic,
environmental, and social vitality
o Use triple bottom line values as applied to affordable housing policy,
regulation, facilitation, and funding
o Seek additional understanding as to how people of color, disabled and
other under-represented populations are negatively affected by local
systems, policies and assumptions, in their efforts to attain appropriate
housing and in response and recovery efforts related to the COVID-19
pandemic.
• AHB members may attend City Council meetings and address Council on matters
pertaining to housing. A detailed discussion with the Board’s Council liaison is
planned quarterly.
• Monitor the community’s efforts to end homelessness.
• Monitor the community’s efforts to make home ownership achievable, especially
for people already living here.
• Be informed by staff of all requests for certification of affordable housing projects.
• At least quarterly, review the Board’s Work Plan to assure the AHB work is
accomplished.
• Board members will consider liaison positions to other boards and commissions,
as possible, including but not limited to:
o Planning and Zoning Commission
o Board of Realtors
o Economic Advisory Board
o Transportation Board
o Human Relations Commission
o Disability Advisory Board
o Senior Advisory Board
o HSHF Board
• Participate in/collaborate with other committees and workgroups convened by the

on issues related to affordable housing.
