Notice of Public Hearing and Public Comment Period on the Draft 2018 Regional Allocation Formula Methodology
The Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs ("the Department") will hold a public hearing to accept public comment on the Draft 2018 Regional Allocation Formula ("RAF") Methodology.
The RAF may be accessed from TDHCA's Public Comment Center at: https://www.tdhca.state.tx.us/public-comment.htm.
The RAF utilizes appropriate statistical data to measure the affordable housing need and available resources in the 13 State Service Regions that are used for planning purposes. The RAF also allocates funding to rural and urban subregions within each region. The Department has flexibility in determining variables to be used in the RAF, per §2306.1115(a)(3) of the Texas Governing Code, "the department shall develop a formula that…includes other factors determined by the department to be relevant to the equitable distribution of housing funds." The RAF is revised annually to reflect current data, respond to public comment, and better assess regional housing needs and available resources.
The Single Family HOME Investment Partnerships Program ("HOME"), Multifamily HOME, Housing Tax Credit ("HTC") and Housing Trust Fund ("HTF") program RAFs each use slightly different formulas because the programs have different eligible activities, households, and geographical service areas. For example, §2306.111(c) of the Texas Government Code requires that 95% of HOME funding be set aside for non-participating jurisdictions ("non-PJs"). Therefore, the Single Family and Multifamily HOME RAFs only use need and available resource data for non-PJs.
The RAF methodology explains the use of factors, in keeping with the statutory requirements, which include the need for housing assistance, the availability of housing resources, and other factors relevant to the equitable distribution of housing funds in urban and rural areas of the state.
The public comment period for the Draft 2018 RAF methodology will be open from Friday, May 26, 2017, through Friday June 16, 2017, at 6:00 p.m. Austin local time. Anyone may submit comments on the Draft 2018 RAF Methodology in written form or oral testimony at the June 13, 2017, public hearing. Written comments concerning the Draft 2018 RAF Methodology may be submitted by mail to the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs, Housing Resource Center, P.O. Box 13941, Austin, Texas 78711-3941, by email to info@tdhca.state.tx.us, or by fax to (512) 475-0070. Comments must be received no later than Friday June 16, 2017, at 6:00 p.m. Austin local time.
Individuals who require auxiliary aids or services at the public hearing should contact Ms. Gina Esteves, ADA responsible employee, at (512) 475-3943 or Relay Texas at (800) 735-2989 at least three (3) days before the meeting so that appropriate arrangements can be made.
Non-English speaking individuals who require interpreters at the public hearing should contact Elena Peinado by phone at (512) 475-3814 or by email at elena.peinado@tdhca.state.tx.us at least three (3) days before the meeting so that appropriate arrangements can be made.
