Commissioners approve $80 million multifamily housing program in county CDBG‑DR action plan
Summary
Hillsborough County commissioners approved a proposed multifamily housing program allocating $80,000,000 in CDBG‑DR grant funds to assist small-scale rehabilitation projects (5–50 units) and larger projects including substantial rehabilitation and new construction; future projects will return to the board for approval.
The Board approved a proposed multifamily housing program under the county's CDBG‑DR action plan that allocates $80,000,000 in grant funding to support housing rehabilitation and development.
According to county communications, the multifamily program will assist small rehabilitation projects for buildings with roughly 5 to 50 units and provide support for large‑scale development including substantial rehabilitation and new construction. Katie said a separate special population housing program will support substantial rehab or new construction for projects of about 50 to 100 units, and that all future projects will be brought back to the board for consideration.
County staff and communications characterized the funding as part of the county's recovery and housing strategy under the HUD‑funded CDBG‑DR program; the transcript did not include project lists or a vote tally beyond the statement that commissioners approved the proposal.
