Title
Resolution to Amend an Approved Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) for Avalon Housing Arbordale Apartments at 1010-1030 Arbordale Street
Memorandum
Arbordale Apartments are currently owned by Arbordale Apartments Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited Partnership, an affiliate of Avalon Housing Corporation, who also manages the property. Avalon Housing, or an affiliated entity as required by funding sources, will be acquiring and rehabilitating the property and applying for Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) from the Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA). The upcoming project has previously been awarded funds from the Washtenaw Urban County.
The property is currently eligible for a PILOT under Chapter 19 of the City's Code of Ordinances that applies to all affordable housing projects that meet the requirements of the ordinance. Avalon can secure 5 points on the LIHTC application if the City of Ann Arbor adopts a PILOT specifically for this address.
Therefore, the Office of Community and Economic Development recommends that the City Council approve a PILOT for Arbordale Apartments 2014.
