Bill Summary

Enabling public housing authorities to borrow against real estate equity of publicly-owned properties

AI Summary

This bill enables public housing authorities to borrow against the real estate equity of publicly-owned properties. It allows public housing authorities to partner with nonprofit organizations or community development corporations to build low or moderate-income housing, and gives priority for development and financial assistance to municipalities participating in the program. The bill also exempts redevelopment of federally or state-aided public housing projects from certain procurement and award contract laws, as long as the executive office approves the procurement processes.
