REPORT - FISCAL YEAR 2024-2025 NOTICES OF FUNDING  
AVAILABILITY - FUNDING RECOMMENDATIONS  
BACKGROUND: In response to the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Notice of  
Funding Availability (“NOFA”) announcing approximately $3,100,000  
and the HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) NOFA  
announcing approximately $440,000 of funds for acquisition,  
development, and rehabilitation of affordable housing; the Housing  
Authority received five applications requesting approximately $4.6  
million for 230 total affordable units. Four applications were received for  
new construction projects and one application was received for a  
rehabilitation project.  
The projects were evaluated and ranked based on project readiness,  
affordability, bedroom size, special needs set asides, leveraging, project  
competitiveness, developer and management experience, services and  
amenities, and other factors. A NOFA Ad-Hoc Committee comprised of  
Commissioners Conte and Smith met on October 3, 2024, to review the  
projects and scoring details. The Ad-Hoc Review Committee is  
recommending funding for four of the five applications received.  
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Housing and  
Community Services Department that the Housing Authority, by  
resolutions, approve conditional commitments of loan funds to: 1)  
Burbank Housing Development Corporation in the amount of  
$1,000,000 for rehabilitation costs for West Avenue Apartments located  
1400 West Avenue; 2) Stony Point Flats, L.P. in the amount of  
$600,000 for construction-related costs for Stony Point Flats located at  
2270 Stony Point Road; 3) BRJE Phase 3 Housing Partners, L.P. in the  
amount of $832,500 for predevelopment and construction-related costs  
for Laurel at Perennial Park Phase III located at 250 Renaissance Way;
