San Angelo DevCorp clarifies $200,000 affordable-housing allocation for Galilee CDC project
Summary
The City of San Angelo Development Corporation voted to confirm that $101,000 for a Galilee CDC multifamily renovation will come from prior-year affordable housing funds and $99,000 from the current-year allocation, finalizing the funding source for the $200,000 the board previously approved.
The City of San Angelo Development Corporation on May 28 voted to confirm the funding sources for a $200,000 contribution to a Galilee Community Development Corporation (Galilee CDC) multifamily housing renovation targeted to adults age 18–30.
The action clarified that $99,000 of the previously approved $200,000 will come from Galilee’s current-year allocation and $101,000 will come from prior-year, unprogrammed affordable-housing proceeds held by the Development Corporation. Morgan Chegwigan, interim director of neighborhood and family services, told the board the $101,000 would be taken from a prior-year balance of $284,000 in affordable-housing funds.
The clarification followed questions from board members about how the December approval had been recorded. A staff member said the December packet only referenced the current‑year programming and did not document use of prior‑year proceeds; the board asked that the minutes and budget amendment clearly reflect the prior‑year source before recording the change.
Director Lewis moved to approve the allocation as presented and Carlos seconded. The board voted in favor with no recorded opposition.
Board members and staff emphasized that the vote did not authorize additional funding beyond the $200,000 the board previously approved in December; it only identified which portions of that amount would come from current‑year versus prior‑year affordable‑housing funds.
The board did not request additional conditions or changes to the Galilee CDC project at the May meeting. Staff said they could provide a fuller project presentation later if board members who were new wished more detail.
