$200,000 AS REVIEWED BY THE COUNCIL
Getschow said this is the same amount as the preliminary budget set by the Council in
September. The budgeted amount of$200,000 meets the needs and costs of the Housing
and Redevelopment.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Nelson, to adopt Resolution No. HRA 2018-03
certifying the 2019 HRA property tax levy to be $200,000 and approving the 2019 HRA
budget of$200,000 as reviewed by the Council.
Case recalled last year the Council said we should consider increasing this amount at some
point. He knew that we have tremendous needs for affordable housing. There are different
ways to go about subsidizing or incentivizing, and this might be a fund that we could
consider and study in the coming year.
Getschow said we have TIF funds and other accounts available that we can use to leverage
for affordable housing. This is one of those sources, and staff will work on reviewing the
sources in 2019.
VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried 4-0.
