Housing, Human and Veteran Services staff has identified $203,868 in unspent funds from previous years. The unspent funds were a result of numerous factors, such as projects completed under budget, projects not started or completed, and unused administration funding. Staff proposes to redirect $163,868 in unspent funds for direct homeownership assistance. Project delivery in the amount of$40,000 will be used for HHVS staff to qualify individuals and administer the program, for a total allocation of$203,868.
