State Legislative Update: Housing Development Resources for Consolidated RFP
The historic 2023 legislative session provided $200 million in Housing Infrastructure appropriations and $121 million for the Economic Development Housing Challenge (EDHC) Program. These two programs are central components of the annual Minnesota Housing Consolidated RFP. Due to incredibly high application demand and critical housing needs across the state, approximately 75% of that funding was committed in 2023 for affordable multifamily rental production and preservation, single family home ownership activities, and manufactured housing community preservation.
The 2024 legislative session that ended in May provided an additional $50 million for Housing Infrastructure Bonds and reallocated $7 million of the remaining EDHC balance to another program. The legislature has made other funding sources available for single family projects that will be awarded through the 2024 Single Family RFP, notably the State Housing Tax Credit, and Workforce and Affordable Homeownership Development programs.
