5. Affordable Housing Requirements in Redevelopment Areas, Tricia Powers

• It is the intent of state redevelopment law to promote revitalization while at the same time protect families from displacement and to achieve a balance of housing and income levels in the area.

• Changes in the law affect how the Redevelopment agency spends the housing set-aside money. There is an emphasis towards spending money on rental housing in order to better keep track of covenants.

• Spending requirements say you must proportionately spend funds to meet the needs of the community.
• Spending requirements for Franklin RDA: very low income (at least 41%); low income (at least 28%); moderate income (no more than 31%).
• Production requirements, a.k.a. inclusionary requirements, ensure that a portion of all new housing must be affordable to the community. There is a 10-year period to meet the requirement.
• Longer affordability terms are now required.
