2026 Affordable Housing Development Home Funding

The City of College Station is seeking proposals for the development of affordable housing through the HOME Investment Partnerships Grant (HOME) Program. The program aims to fund activities such as building, buying, and rehabilitating affordable housing for rent or homeownership, as well as providing direct rental assistance to low-income people. The City will evaluate respondents based on their qualifications, experience, project design, and financial contribution. Key considerations include project adherence to the City's Consolidated Plan, site control, and compliance with federal regulations. • The project must comply with federal Section 3 regulations if the contract exceeds $200,000 in HOME funding. • The project must comply with the Build America Buy America Act if the total project cost exceeds $250,000 and includes the construction, alteration, maintenance, or repair of buildings or real property consisting of five or more residential units. • The City requires evidence of site control in the form of a deed or option agreement with a seller. • The City will select one or more agencies based on an evaluation of respondents' qualifications and experience.
