Spring 2019 Affordable Housing Notice of Funding Availability Housing Applications Overview and Appendices

Snohomish County is making available HOME Investment Partnership funds and 1/10 of 1% Sales Tax Chemical Dependency and Mental Health (CDMH) funds for affordable housing.  The Overview provides an overall description of the Spring 2019 Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for HOME and CDMH funds, and includes descriptions of the funding amounts available, the funding sources, the applicable policies (see Appendices below), application instructions, and the funding review processes and schedule.

Application Information

The Spring 2019 NOFA Application has separate sections to better evaluate the proposal and funding request.  More information on each type of application may be found in the relevant sections listed below.  Applications are due Friday, May 31, 2019 by 4:00 pm.

Snohomish County, along with other jurisdictions, is using the Combined Funders Application, which is a common application for multi-unit rental housing and homeownership development projects. In addition to the appropriate Combined Funders Application (which includes both MS Word narrative and MS Excel form sections), the appropriate Snohomish County Addendum(s) must be submitted for each proposed project, as listed in the sections below.


**UPDATE 04/11/2019**

The 2019 narrative section of the Combined Funders application (MS Word), which was unavailable when the Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) was posted, is now available.  In addition, the 2019 form section of the Combined Funders Application (MS Excel), which was posted with the Notice of Fund Availability on April 8, 2019, has been updated as of April 11, 2019.  If you have downloaded the original version, please replace it with this updated 2019 form section of the Combined Funders Application.  These 2019 application changes only affect the Capital Multi-Unit Rental Housing Projects and the Shelter Capital Projects.
