85. IGA WITH THE CITY OF TEMPE FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES Approve a financial Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Tempe (“Subrecipient”) and Maricopa County (“County”) administered by its' Human Services Department. The purpose of the Agreement is to address the growing need for affordable housing in the Tempe area. The City will construct and develop, directly or through an eligible subrecipient or developer, affordable rental housing units that cater to low-income families. The Cities’ goal is to acquire land in the North Tempe area and subsequently develop a multi-family, mixed-use and mixed income urban living community, designated the “Hometown for All” initiative. The number and allocation of affordable housing units designated, estimated to be 50 units or 50% of the project, as well as the affordability period, will be specified in a future Development Agreement. The project will allow individuals and families a path towards economic self-support and housing stability by building a healthy, supportive, and community focused lifestyle for future residents in the surrounding areas. The County shall provide the Subrecipient with $10,800,000 in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funds under the Assistance Listing Number 21.027. The Agreement is effective beginning December 6, 2023, through December 31, 2025.
