Attending the Downtown Sacramento Partnership conference at the Safe Credit Union Convention Center. In short, the pandemic has severely decreased the number of people working in downtown Sac by almost half. Instead of working 5 days a week, most people are working downtown twice a week. It means that commerce downtown is suffering right now, and unless there is a dynamic shift toward creating multi-use spaces, Sac will continue to decline. The new focus will be on: Housing, the Arts, academic research, open spaces, clean and safe venues and neighborhoods. This is an all hands on deck moment for the city of Sacramento.

The City of Farmington Hills Department of Public Services has successfully achieved its third consecutive accreditation from the American Public Works Association (APWA). As one of only three accredited agencies in Michigan, and the sole accredited city, this achievement underscores Farmington Hills’ unwavering commitment to excellence in public service. “Being the only city with an accredited public works department in Michigan is a testament to the hard work of the City’s Public Services Department,” said Jacob Rushlow, director of the City of Farmington Hills Department of Public Services. “This level of service is made possible by the more than 60 dedicated staff members who ensure successful delivery of services to Farmington Hills residents, visitors and business owners.” More info: https://lnkd.in/gv_cwBP6 Pictured here (left to right): Derrick Schueller, City of Farmington Hills Division of Public Works superintendent, Jacob Rushlow, City of Farmington Hills Department of Public Services director, and Larry Hummel, APWA Region V director.

Exciting news for #GreenvilleSC! The City Council’s approval of a special district to revitalize Laurens Road is a significant step toward sustainable urban planning and economic growth. Transforming a blighted area into a vibrant, thriving corridor demonstrates how thoughtful real estate development can positively impact the community. Projects like this not only enhance the aesthetic and functionality of our neighborhoods but also drive local business growth, attract new investments, and empower residents. As our city grows, we must consider forward-thinking solutions like rail systems, bike-friendly streets, and pedestrian-focused urban designs to reduce car dependency and promote sustainability. A modern rail network could connect neighborhoods, businesses, and residents seamlessly, reducing traffic congestion and supporting economic mobility. This project is a testament to what happens when cities embrace visionary urban planning for a more sustainable and connected future. Looking forward to seeing this transformation come to life! #EconomicGrowth #UrbanPlanning #CommunityDevelopment #Sustainability #RealEstateDevelopment #LocalImpact #YeahThatGreenville #GreenvilleSC

Great article today by Novogradac regarding the dire need to preserve our existing affordable housing stock. Unfortunately, the CTCAC proposed regulations for 2025 do nothing to address the obstacles facing preservation in the 9% program (specifically in Rural areas). Looking forward to continuing the fight to preserve California's existing affordable housing projects and strengthen housing opportunities in rural areas. https://lnkd.in/gUX7s4nH

Last week, we announced the latest round of awards from the Affordable Housing Leverage Fund (AHLF). $11.2MM to 12 projects delivering 357 units of affordable housing to Cincinnati residents. We’re proud of the results and – because it matters to those results – the process we used to get there. A little on both, then. This is all possible because the City of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, in their genuine wisdom, committed to investing in CDF together. This allowed us to consider a much larger pool of projects and advance multiple strategic priorities at once: - Leveraging state funding: aligning our timing with multiple state funding cycles allowed CDF to boost the chances of Cincinnati-area projects for highly competitive state funds; - Targeting affordability in “hot” neighborhoods: specifically encouraging affordability in areas seeing lots of investment delivered projects in OTR, Walnut Hills, Northside, and Evanston; - Building developer capacity: continuing to support the growth of smaller developers to expand the region’s capacity to build, and affordably. This round of awards brings the total AHLF investment since late 2022 to $51 million in grants and loans to 44 projects delivering 1448 units (1357 income-restricted, 85% at 60% AMI or less). Work that responded to a loud community demand for affordability. And with an active pipeline of 19 projects (1055 units) seeking AHLF funding, that work continues.
CDF’s Affordable Housing Leverage Fund (AHLF) is pleased to announce 12 awards totaling $11.2 million to development projects committed to producing or preserving 357 affordable housing units in Cincinnati. 85% of the units serve Cincinnatians earning 60% AMI and below. The projects are located in 8 different neighborhoods and range significantly in size of developer and unit count. CDF manages AHLF on behalf of multiple funders, including the City of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, to make investments in critical affordable housing projects. This round of awards illustrates the AHLF’s role in deploying multiple funding sources together, which advances the strategic goals of leveraging other funds, bringing affordability to high-investment areas, and growing the developer pool. We are grateful to our financing and developer partners for their commitments to bringing much-needed affordable housing to Cincinnati. See the complete list of projects on our website.
