City updates employee down‑payment assistance eligibility to track area median income
Summary
City staff proposed and council approved updating the employee down‑payment assistance program to tie eligibility to area median income (AMI) and to adjust the threshold annually to reflect changing salaries and housing costs.
Mrs. Ziegler presented changes to the city's employee down‑payment assistance program, asking council approval to align eligibility with area median income so the program will adjust annually as incomes shift. She said the existing program had been successful but needed its eligibility math updated to reflect salary increases.
Mayor Essoby said several employees had taken advantage of the program and thanked staff for the recommendation. Council voted to approve the update on motion; no further implementation details or updated AMI thresholds were recorded in the transcript.
