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:

 

  • Waters at Arrowood – Preservation of affordable housing
  • Coolwood Oaks – Preservation of affordable housing

 

HCD recommends a Motion to hold a Public Hearing on August 13, 2025, on the 4% Housing Tax Credit Resolution of No Objection.
