Commerce is making $12.5 million in state funds available to eligible applicants via a newly posted Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) by the Multifamily Housing Unit (MHU).

The allocation strategy was rolled out through an Addendum to 2023 NOFA on December 14, 2023 in the following manner:

Cohort 1: Streamlined application to eligible ” lookback” projects (21-23)
Cohort 2: Supplemental application for eligible 2023 Applicants

Decisions were made, and awards announced, for Cohorts 1 and 2 as of March 21″, 2024. As described in the Addendum, any funds not awarded to Cohorts 1 or 2 would be offered via a separate NOFA that would incorporate any changes made by the Legislature during the 2024 Session. These changes expanded the number of applicants eligible for Cohort 1 and 2, including a reduction in the minimum number of units and the expanded definition of TOD.
