This fund has been established to receive that portion of sales and use tax credited back to the city for the acquisition, construction or rehabilitation of affordable housing or facilities providing supportive housing, and for the operations and maintenance costs of new units of affordable or supportive housing, and if eligible, for providing rental assistance to tenants.
(Ord. 1925 § 2 (Exh. B), 2020)
Any unexpended funds remaining in the affordable housing sales tax fund at the end of a budget period shall not be transferred to the general fund or otherwise lapse, but funds shall be carried forward from year to year until expended for a purpose set forth in WMC § 3.66.020.
