Development for Phase II consisting of up to 120 senior units conforms to SLFRF presumptive eligibility requirements,
meeting County expectations regarding tenant protection and an affordability period of at least twenty (20) years. The
proposed activity falls under the U.S. Treasury qualifying project to increase long-term housing security and respond to
the negative economic impacts of the pandemic on households and communities whereby the project will be used in
support of an accepted public purpose, affordable housing. The Board declared affordable housing as a valid public
purpose under Resolution 2018-82. This project promotes partnership between public and private entities, whereby there
are federal and state tax incentives, to develop and operate the qualifying project.
Should the Phase II project fail to materialize, U.S. Treasury allows for the County to reclassify the SLFRF funds from
the Phase II project to another project that would be eligible under the SLFRF program rules. Accordingly, the SLFRF
funds are not abandoned if Phase II does not get built and the County will not lose the funds, provided they are
reappropriated to an eligible use pursuant to U.S. Treasury guidelines.
FISCAL IMPACT: The grant agreement will be paid by funds from State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds residing
within Housing Grant Fund (1835), Project No. 33765 in the amount of $538,357.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Providing funding to assist in the development of housing that is affordable
furthers the goals, objectives, and policies in the Housing Element of the Collier County Growth Management Plan.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires majority vote for approval.
