Tax Credits Finance Update

Features

The Menkiti Group Hosts Construction Tour of Unique Residential Development in Downtown Worcester, MA
The project is the ongoing construction of Chatham Lofts, a new, market-rate residential apartment community located at 6 Chatham Street, Worcester, MA. The project has received preliminary approval for listing on the National Register of Historic Places from the National Park Service and has qualified for both federal and state historic tax credits. The project is also being financed through the Developer's Opportunity Zone fund program.

LIHTC Per-Capita Multiplier Remains Same for 2021 While the Private Activity Bond Multiplier Increases
The per-capita multiplier to set a state's 9 percent low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) cap for 2021 will remain the same as 2020, while the private activity bond (PAB) multiplier will increase by $5 per capita, according to Revenue Procedure 2020-45, published today by the Internal Revenue Service.

Restoration of Historic Pancratia Hall Underway in Denver, CO
The first phase of Westside Investment Partners' master plan that will transform the historic Loretto Heights campus into a vibrant new community is now underway. The project will be financed with a $3.3 million cash flow loan toward the restoration. Additional financing includes 4 percent Federal low-income housing tax credits (LIHTCs), Private Activity Bonds and Federal and State historic tax credits.

Civil Legal Aid's Value Increases for Economic Recovery
Although funds from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), cannot stave off eviction from tenants in certain cases, living in an apartment complex that was a recipient of Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) has a different meaning. Since LIHTC projects are governed by the CARES Act, tenants cannot be evicted for nonpayment of rent during the month in question.

The First CDFA Charter Schools Financing Initiative Paper Is Here! Development Finance Strategies for Charter Schools
CDFA has released the first publication of the CDFA Charter Schools Financing Initiative series, funded with support from the National Alliance For Public Charter Schools. This paper demonstrates how charter schools can access development finance tools and provides real-world examples of how these tools resources have been successfully implemented across the nation.

Expiring State Historic Tax Credit Could Hinder Future Development, Including in Duluth, MN
The Minnesota Historic Structure Rehabilitation Tax Credit will expire at the end of June unless legislative action is taken to renew the 20% tax credit. However, officials' concerns are lessened by the fact that the Federal Historic Tax Credit is not expiring and that TIF and OZ's can still continue to be used.

Cincinnati, OH City Council Ordinance Could Save Lower Price Hill Affordable Housing Project
The 47-unit project by Over-the-Rhine Community Housing and nonprofit Community Matters, called LPH Thrives, would include 10 renovated buildings and a new building, as well as mixed-use space. The effort has garnered more than $10M in investment via Low Income Housing Tax Credits and Historic Preservation Tax Credits.

CDFI Fund Opens CY 2020 Round of New Markets Tax Credit Program
The CDFI Fund released the Notice of Allocation Availability (NOAA) for the calendar year 2020 round of the New Markets Tax Credit Program. The NOAA makes up to $5.0 billion in tax credit allocation authority available for the CY 2020 round, an increase of $1.5 billion more than the $3.5 billion in NMTCs initially authorized for allocation in CY 2019.
