About NOFA:

Guided by the Comprehensive Housing Policy, NOFA promotes mixed-income development projects that directly target funds and incentives towards pre-defined reinvestment strategy areas.  This program leverages city-owned land, public/private partnerships and support social impact projects, while following the compliance rules and limitations associated with funding streams. 

NOFA offers the flexibility requested from the development community to access gap financing in a timely fashion.  The program is designed to evaluate small and large scale projects on a fair and equitable scale allocating federal grants, general obligation bonds and other funding as it becomes available.  The NOFA Project Review Calendar aligns with the low-income housing tax credit calendar, where staff will actively work to continue improving service delivery. 


Eligibility Requirements:

NOFA is open to for-profit and non-profit applicants proposing the development of affordable rental and for-sale housing developments, including affordable rental housing for individuals and families experiencing homelessness, that also include a portion of units for persons with special needs.


How to Apply:

For more information please attend a Pre-Submission Meeting held every month on the 4th Tuesday, or view the most recent Pre-Submission Meeting Presentation from July 26, 2022 and the NOFA Frequently Asked Questions.
