Sedgwick County to consider fee waivers for low-income housing tax credit projects
Summary
County staff presented a request to permit fee waivers for approved low-income housing tax credit projects; the city approved the measure last week and the commission will consider final approval.
Crystal Abram told the Sedgwick County Commission that the county will consider granting fee waivers for approved low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) projects. "This is for permission to do fee waivers for approved low-income tax low-income housing tax credit projects," Abram said, noting the city approved the same measure last Tuesday and now the request comes to the commission for final approval.
The presenter framed the waiver as a procedural step consistent with recent practice; transcript remarks did not include proposed dollar amounts, the specific fees to be waived, or the number of projects expected to apply. The agenda lists the item under H and indicates it has previously been approved at the city level. No final vote or motion appears in the provided transcript excerpt.
If the commission approves the measure, the waivers would apply only to projects already approved for LIHTC and would require the commission’s final action at the meeting referenced on the agenda. The transcript does not specify implementation details, effective dates, or fiscal impacts.
