HCD23-103 Public Hearing - 4% HTC EMLI at Mesa Gardens

Agenda Item#: 1.


 
                               
Summary:

9:00 A.M. PUBLIC HEARING to provide a Resolution of No Objection for the 4% tax credit application of EMLI HOUSTON MESA TCI, LP

Background:

The Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) recommends Council approve a motion establishing a date for a public hearing to provide a Resolution of No Objection for the 4% tax credit application of EMLI Houston Mesa TCI, LP.

 

The TDHCA administers the state’s housing tax credit program, which provides federal tax credits to spur the development of quality, affordable housing.

 

Per Texas Government Code Section 2306-67071, the governing body of the jurisdiction where a project is to be located must “hold a hearing …to solicit public input concerning the Application or Development” before a developer can submit an application for noncompetitive 4% tax credits.

 

HCD has performed a threshold review and recommends a Resolution of No Objection for the following reasons:

 

  • Located in TIRZ 22 – Leland Woods
  • Not located in a floodway or 100-year floodplain

 

HCD requests a Motion to hold a public hearing on October 25, 2023, on the 4% tax credit Resolution of No Objection.

 

The Housing and Community Affairs Committee Chair reviewed this item on October 11, 2023.
