Arizona Department of Housing has published the second draft of the 2017 QAP (recent changes are highlighted in yellow). Changes include updating several definitions and the following:
- Set-asides: projects not awarded in a set-aside category will still be required to complete a project as presented in the application if awarded remaining credits. Applicants not selected in the 811 set-aside will still be required to accept Section 811 voucher holders during future years.
- Section 811 Set-Aside: The number of eligible units for the set-aside was changed from 39 to 50.
- Scoring: “Service Enriched Location” is now worth 35 points rather than 17.5. Additional points come from existing facilities located within a 5 mile radius of the site (previously, only a 1 mile radius counted).
ADOH will accept written comments on the second draft of the 2017 QAP until October 14, 2016 at 5:00 p.m. via letter or e-mail to either of the following addresses:
