of Funding Availability (NOFA)
for
Preservation and Rehabilitation of
Existing Affordable
Rental Housing
(download documents)
The City of Oakland Community and Economic
Development Agency (CEDA) is announcing a Notice of Funding
Availability (NOFA) to preserve and rehabilitate existing
affordable rental housing developments. Approximately $4
to $8 million is estimated to be available from two sources:
HOME funds and Oakland Redevelopment Agency Affordable
Housing funds. A complete program description and details
of the application process are included in the NOFA package.
Note: The State of California's
budget take of redevelopment funds may result in a significantly
decreased amount of Redevelopment Agency affordable housing
funds this year. As of the date of publication of this
NOFA, the full impact on housing funds is not yet determined.
Please check CEDA’s Housing and Community Development
website for updates.
Applications must be received at CEDA’s office
no later than 4:00 p.m. on Thursday, October 22, 2009.
The City and Agency reserve the right to suspend, amend,
or
modify the provisions of the NOFA.
We strongly encourage potential applicants
to attend a
meeting on the City's employment and contracting
programs.
The meeting will be held on Thursday, October 1,
2009, at 10:00 AM, in City Hall, Hearing Room 4 (second
floor).
Time will also be available for general questions and answers
on the NOFA.
Should you have any questions or need additional
information regarding this NOFA or the City’s housing
development program requirements, please contact the
Housing Development
staff at (510) 238-6173.
The
City of Oakland and the Oakland Redevelopment Agency
are Equal Housing
Opportunity and Accessible Housing providers.
