Title
Resolution to Approve the FY21 Ann Arbor Housing Commission Agency-Wide Operating Budget
Memorandum
The Housing Commission's fiscal year begins July 1st and ends June 30th of each year; and the Commission has prepared an initial Ann Arbor Housing Commission operating budget for FY21 (July 1, 2020 thru June 30, 2021).
The budget includes all of the HUD program cost centers for the AAHC on the left side of the budget spreadsheet. The budget also includes the AAHC's affiliated business entities on the right side of the budget sheet.

* Swift Lane is budgeted as if it is fully occupied during the FY21. The units will be occupied between September and December 2020 and must be fully occupied by December 31, 2020. Consequently, the first 6 months of FY21 will reflect partially occupied buildings not fully occupied buildings. The revenues will still cover expenses because the development budget includes an operating lease-up reserve...
