Jennifer Bray seconded. Kristin Fritz abstained. Approved 6-0. 1/4/2024 — M IN U TES MINUTES Fort Collins CITY OF FORT COLLINS • BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS Commissions AFFORDABLE HOUSING BOARD REGULAR MEETING B. Private Activity Bonds — Sue Beck-Ferkiss • Sue Beck-Ferkiss gave the Board an overview of Private Activity Bonds (PABs), which are conduit debt issued in the local government's name but repaid by individuals or entities that are not part of that government. Issuers can be states, local governments, or housing authorities. In Fort Collins, Housing Catalyst and Colorado Housing and Finance Authority (CHFA) are the primary users of the City's Private Activity Bond Capacity. PABs allow debt to be issued at favorable tax-exempt rates. The interest paid is also exempt from federal income tax. • PABs are allowed for several things, but Fort Collins prioritizes their use for affordable housing development and rehabilitation. Annually, the IRS distributes PAB Capacity to all states based on a population-based formula. CHFA requires their use for Federal 4% Low-Income Housing Tax Credit financing, which technically is non-competitive, but due to scarcity of this resource, has become competitive. Bond capacity is required for approximately 50-55% of the project cost. • The application process has a March 15t" deadline so that City staff have plenty of time to get the request to City Council. The City has an internal committee that reviews PAB requests, makes a recommendation to the Affordable Housing Board for approval, then takes the recommendation to City Council by August 15th to ensure they can pass a Resolution assigning the bond capacity to an issuer by September 15tn DISCUSSION • If a project developer has significant debt elsewhere, is that considered? You can combine tax-exempt and taxable debt together. Since only 50-55% of the project costs can be financed through tax-exempt, you won't get the PAB unless you receive financing to complete the rest of the project. • If a bond is defaulted on, who is the responsible party for paying it back? The issuer. There is a fee associated with issuing bonds. Does PAB get allocated equally by population or will some places get more than their population warrants? Allocation is based on population, but the statewide balance gives priority for different reasons and that is not based on population. • Who chooses where the PAB capacity is assigned? The applicant. If they are working with an issuer, they will let the City know who that is (typically Housing Catalyst or CHFA) and then the City does the assignment to the proper issuer. • Why does the City allocate PABs instead of the IRS? Local control and local priorities. Not every community uses PABs for affordable 1/4/2024 — M IN U TES Page 2 MINUTES Fort Collins CITY OF FORT COLLINS • BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS Commissions AFFORDABLE HOUSING BOARD REGULAR MEETING housing. • Could a project in Fort Collins apply for both City and County PAB? Yes. Housing Catalyst has done so for several projects. • What are Single-Family Mortgage Revenue Bonds? They are for down payment assistance programs. The City has not used PABs for this purpose. The City used to have a down payment assistance program, but it was discontinued because our partners were doing it better and we were not getting loans out. • What does bond capacity mean in terms of what you can do with PAB to raise money for a housing project? Every affordable housing project that uses 4% low income housing tax credits is required to access tax-exempt, Private Activity Bond Cap. For every project, there are different funding sources — grants, debt, and income. If a project has 4% tax credits, one of the requirements is that 50% of the cost must be covered using Private Activity Bond Capacity. The reason it's beneficial is because it's tax-exempt debt, so it costs less to a project than other debt options. One of the bills currently being considered at the federal level is to lower the threshold of PABs from 50% to 25% because affordable housing developers are constrained with project debt being financed with PABs. • Is the amount of interest that a project pays back standardized through the IRS? No, it's negotiable. • Why does City Council have to approve PABs? Because PABs come from the federal government and the City has an internal process for using them or deploying them. • Are PABs tracked? Yes, there's a formal process for tracking PABs that must be completed every year. Developers and their issuers must report on what's come in, what's gone out, and who it's gone to. C. Retreat Planning for January —John Singleton and Sue Beck-Ferkiss • The Affordable Housing Board Retreat will be on Friday, January 12 from 11 am-3pm at the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery. James Redmond from the Communications and Public Involvement Office (CPIO) and Ted Hewitt from the City Attorney's Office will be joining the Board for a portion of the retreat.

Communications Presentation/Q&A—James Redmond from CPIO(Communications& Public Involvement Office) - The City is working to consolidate several departmental social media accounts. - The City encourages Boards to create content and then have CPIO distribute it. - The City website and word of mouth are the most popular channels of communication. Engage, Our City, and FCTV are not used as much. - Preferred methods of communication: City website, social media, newspapers, City newsletter (goes out every month), Recreator(just put out a new press kit that James will send), City department newsletters (such as the Social Sustainability Housing Newsletter... are there any other relevant City departments that could include info related to affordable housing?) o How to get into City newsletter: news has to be timely and the impact of the news has to be convincing to CPIO.The City newsletter is mostly about news (opinion pieces typically are not published). - Free communication methods: City website, City newsletter, social media o CPIO can edit and review before sending out for press release. - Communication methods that cost$: bus benches, Recreator, United Mailer o United Mailer will put up posters for events (but don't tell you where) - What types of events are most successful? o It depends on the community interest. Building interest (using word of mouth) is important (if you get one person excited, they'll tell more people about it). o "Mini doors approach"—do as much as you can with your budget/time. o Intercept events—approach community members in places where they'll already be (i.e.,grocery stores). o Think about accessibility—ask staff liaison if translation services are needed for an event. - How do we build engagement at our monthly AHB meetings? o Educate the community about how to participate and how they can engage meaningfully. - Thoughts on listening sessions? o One of the CounciImembers does "coffee with a councilmember" and advertises what coffee shop they will be at and when so community members can come talk to them. AHB could do something similar? Remember—go where people already are! Legal Presentation/Q&A—Ted Hewitt from the City Attorney's Office - AHB can go to Council and ask for$ during the BFO Process o Sue has a $9,000 budget, but usually pitches in some for the Seasonal Overflow Shelter - Best practice to check on (legal)things on a case-by-case basis. If an issue is on the ballot,there are more rules. - Advocacy vs. Education o Campaign Finance—there is a risk that you could do something that involved City staff and would trigger campaign finance rules.You could put the City at risk of having to disclose the expenses involved.Try to be as ahead of campaign finance as possible. - Political Risk o Legally,the Board must stay within what the City Code says they can do.You can take political risks, but Council can choose to remove you from the Board. Fort Collins •40 ' • Habitat for Humanity' Building Hope and Homes... One Family at a Time. January 5, 2024 Fort Collins City Hall Mayor Arndt and City Council Members 300 Laporte Ave. Fort Collins, CO 80521 Dear Mayor Arndt and City Council Members, I am writing to request the cancellation of the 2850 Sykes project contract and release of this agreement. We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to participate in the competitive process and for the funding recommendation made by the Human Services & Housing Funding Board. Funding received from the City of Fort Collins makes it possible to provide homeownership to hardworking buyers earning under 80% of the area median income through Habitat. The Sykes home doesn't meet the HOME Requirements now because the homeowner would now be considered over-income or not a qualified "low-income buyer". Habitat still plans to move forward with the sale to selected family based on their investment and need for the affordable product and mortgage. We recognize that a sale to this buyer would not meet the terms of the agreement and this is why we are requesting a release from the contract. Habitat homebuyers go through a rigorous selection and build process which can take up to two years, meaning once they are invested, Habitat is committed but also in this amount of time things can change. Here is a little more information on our process. Homebuyers are selected by our qualification committee which is made up of dedicated volunteers who are professional underwriters. These dedicated volunteers review qualifications and confirm that Habitat homebuyers are prepared to build and buy their own home. Habitat homeowners pay Habitat, the mortgage lender, an affordable fixed-rate mortgage payment that does not exceed 28% of their income and this helps to build more homes. Habitat homeowners also contribute $1,500 toward closing costs and up to 400 hours of "sweat equity" building their home and those of other families. Meeting these minimum criteria helps ensure the success of homebuyer partner families. To be eligible to purchase a Habitat home, families meet the following four criteria: 1. Residency- Live or work in service area, are a US citizen, or a legal permanent resident 2. Need of Housing- Housing is inadequate, unaffordable, unsafe, or not stable 3. Ability to Pay- Consistent income at 45-80% AMI, save $1,500 toward closing costs 4. Willingness to Partner- Committed to giving 200-400 hours of "sweat equity" volunteering. 4001 South Taft Hill Road, Fort Collins, CO 80526 (970) 223-4522 (phone) www.fortcollinshabitat.org (970) 223-4524 (fax) Fort Collins 4R• ' Habitat for Humanity' Building Hope and Homes... One Family at a Time. Once a homebuyer is qualified and selected, they immediately begin investing their hundreds of hours of "sweat equity" building their home alongside volunteers and participating in extensive homebuyer education. For this reason, once the buyer is committed Habitat is committed as well. If a homebuyer's income increases during the 1-2 year process to build their home, this will raise the buyer's mortgage payment but not impact their selection. As the City of Fort Collins recognized in the 2021 Housing Strategic Plan, our community has a critical shortage of affordable homes, especially the types of homes Fort Collins residents need. Addressing this acute need for affordable housing is key to the health of our residents and our community. Thank you for your commitment and that of the Board and the Dept of Social Sustainability, we will apply again for our future builds. Sincerely, r Kristin Candella Executive Director and CEO 4001 South Taft Hill Road, Fort Collins, CO 80526 (970) 223-4522 (phone) www.fortcollinshabitat.orQ (970) 223-4524 (fax) THIS DOCUMENT INCLUDES ALL ITEMS PLANNED FOR COUNCIL MEETINGS AND WORK SESSIONS.
