Statement of Purpose
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: The HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) requires funds to be spent in a timely manner. During a review of the HOME funds, it was shown that there was $23,628.03 remaining in the Tenant Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) Contract from 2020 which is administered by the Duluth Housing Redevelopment Authority (HRA). HRA staff told city staff that these funds were not needed for the 2020 TBRA contract due to lack of affordable units and that the HRA was focusing on the 2021 TBRA contract. City staff informed the community development committee of these funds and the committee allocated them towards the 2023 Community Land Trust New Construction Program operated by One Roof Community Housing at the December 6, 2022 meeting when they made the 2023 Program Years recommendations to city council.
