ARPA committee recommends extending Saint Anthony's housing project's occupancy deadline to Dec. 31
Summary
The Potter County ARPA committee recommended amending interlocal agreements to extend the certificate-of-occupancy deadline for Crossroads Housing / Saint Anthony's senior building to Dec. 31, 2025, citing elevator replacement delays and coordination with Texas Department of Housing tax-credit timelines.
A county staff member told the court the Potter County ARPA committee recommends that the commissioners approve amendments to existing interlocal agreements with Crossroads Housing Development Corporation and Saint Anthony's Amarillo Housing to extend the project's certificate-of-occupancy deadline to December 31, 2025. The presenter explained the delay stems primarily from elevator replacement and coordination with the Texas Department of Housing's extension schedule.
The staff member said the time extension aligns with the tax-credit timeline and that both of the project's separate agreements must be amended. The presenter also recommended that the judge be authorized to sign the amended agreements via e-signature under existing authority. Commissioners asked several clarifying questions about budget impacts and participating parties; the presenter said tenant leasing would likely begin in late fall and that the additional time matches the TBHCA (Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs) extension.
The court did not record a formal vote in the provided segment; staff recommended ministerial authorization for signature if the court approves the amendment.
