109.04.02 Ark. Code R. § 001 - Housing Credit Program 2002 Qualified Allocation Plan
The Arkansas Development Finance Authority ("ADFA" or the "Authority") is charged with the responsibility of administering federal low income housing tax credits ("Housing Credits") for the State of Arkansas (the "State"). ADFA is also charged with the responsibility of promulgating rules and regulations concerning the allocation of the Arkansas low income housing tax credit (the "State Housing Credits") pursuant to Ark. Code Ann. § 26-51-1701 et seq. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 created the Housing Credit to encourage the private sector to invest in the construction and rehabilitation of housing for low- and moderate-income individuals and families. Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("IRC" or the "Code"), mandates that Housing Credit agencies adopt a Qualified Allocation Plan for allocation of the Housing Credit to low-income rental developments throughout their respective states. Low income housing tax credits shall be allocated in accordance with this plan or any amendments thereto.
The Code requires that ADFA, determine that "the [Housing Credit] dollar amount allocated to the development will not exceed the amount the housing credit agency determines is necessary for the financial feasibility of the development and its viability as a qualified low-income housing development throughout the credit period." Housing Credits will be limited to the amount that the Authority, in its sole discretion, deems necessary. Housing Credits are not intended to provide the primary or principal source of financing for a development, but are intended to provide financial incentives sufficient to fill "gaps" which would otherwise exist in developing affordable rental housing for low-income households.
ADFA reserves the right to disapprove any development for an allocation of Housing Credits, regardless of the evaluation.
ADFA reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to suspend or debar any applicant from the Housing Credit program which ADFA determines has acted improperly, illegally or inappropriately in the applicant's dealings with the Authority or in any way relative to the Housing Credit Program.
ADFA's Multifamily Housing staff will conduct a review of previous performance under the HOME Program, the Housing Credit program and any ADFA loan program, including disbursements, payment history, compliance history and any findings. Non-performance on previous developments and delinquencies in payments may result in disqualification of an application by the ADFA Board Housing Review Committee, regardless of scoring.
All of the State's annual credit ceiling and any unused carry-forward from the previous year will be awarded during one eligibility cycle. Applicants must apply during the eligibility cycle to receive a credit allocation during the calendar year. The closing dates for applications on the one full cycle of available 2002 allocation are as follows:
The deadline for submitting Housing Credit applications is as follows : FINAL APPLICATION DEADLINE IS FEBRUARY 19, 2002
The deadline for submitting Housing Credit applications is set forth above, and all Housing Credit applications must be hand-delivered to ADFA's office at the address below by 4:30 p.m. on that day or postmarked by the deadline date and must be received by the next business day via overnight mail priority next day delivery. Facsimiles and e-mails will not be accepted. All applications must be delivered to ADFA in person, by courier, by overnight mail for next day delivery, or by any other means of physical delivery. If applications are hand delivered, they must be received by 4:30 p.m. on application deadline date.

The Pre-Application deadline has been eliminated and ADFA will only accept Final Applications by the deadline above. ADFA will not accept any applications submitted after the Final Deadline Date.
Final Applications. An applicant may submit a complete application by the applicable deadline. The application must be complete upon receipt by ADFA. The Multifamily Housing staff will review and evaluate the applications, and notification of missing Threshold Requirements, Selection Criteria documentation, and scoring of the application will be mailed to the applicant.
Cure Period. All Applicants will have an opportunity to cure application deficiencies by submitting the required documentation to ADFA within five (5) business days from the date of notification. Applicants will also be allowed to discuss scoring with ADFA during the five (5) day Cure Period. The additional documentation will then be reviewed, and a final scoring will be mailed by the deadline. Changes to the original application, other than missing Threshold Requirements and Selection Criteria documentation, will not be permitted. ADFA will not accept any missing
documentation, nor will the applicant be allowed to discuss final scoring with ADFA after the expiration of the five (5) day cure period.
It is the policy of ADFA to discourage applicants from contacting ADFA staff or members of its Board of Directors for information on the status of their applications after the expiration of the deadline that has been established for submission of Threshold Requirements and Final Applications. Vi olations of this policy will be brought to the attention of the Board Housing Review Committee and could result in a downgrade to the final scoring.

Developments financed with certain tax-exempt bonds may be eligible to receive all or some of their Housing Credit outside the State's annual Housing Credit ceiling. Although these developments need not compete for an award through the competitive process, they must still be evaluated against the threshold criteria, approved by the Authority and be in compliance with the monitoring provisions of this plan.
Applicants preparing an Acquisition/Rehabilitation development must deliver a Market Feasibility Study to ADFA by the Final Application Deadline of February 19, 2002.
ADFA reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to independently evaluate the demand for additional affordable rental housing in the geographic market area.

Upon approval of the Staff and Board Housing Review Committees, a forward commitment of Housing Credits to an eligible development may be made for the next available allocation cycle (including any turn-back of credits), but only if:
The base amount of annual credit authority is currently calculated at $1.75 per capita. This per capita amount is based upon population estimates released each year by the Internal Revenue Service.
The maximum amount of Housing Credits that may be allocated to one individual development located in a Designated Low-Income County as defined in the 2000-2005 State Consolidated Plan, or Places/Counties identified by Rural Development, shall be no more than $325,000 of the annual Housing Credits available in the calendar year. Exhibit 2 attached hereto is the Rural Development Low Income Place/County List.
The maximum amount of Housing Credits that may be allocated to one individual development NOT located in a Designated Low-Income County as defined in the 2000-2005 State Consolidated Plan, or Places/Counties identified by Rural Development, shall be no more than $300,000 of the annual Housing Credits available in the calendar year.

Each application will be ranked according to the score awarded. In the event that some applicants score the same and are ranked the same, the Authority may use discretionary judgment in establishing a final award. The Authority reserves the right to disapprove or reduce the Housing Credits in any allocation during any stage, regardless of ranking under the priorities and point ranking outlined above. For any allocation not made in accordance with the established priorities and selection criteria of the Authority, a written explanation must be made by the Authority to the general public.
Under certain circumstances, developments located in either Difficult Development Areas or Qualified Census Tracts and HUD-designated areas with a poverty rate of twenty-five percent (25%) or higher (as those terms are defined by HUD) may be eligible to have their new construction/rehabilitation qualified basis increased up to one hundred thirty percent (130%). However, because of the additional provisions that require the Authority to only award the amount of tax credits a project needs, projects located in these designated areas will not automatically or necessarily receive these higher tax credit amounts.
The Authority will limit the builder's profit to a ten percent (10%) maximum, builder's overhead to a four percent (4%) maximum, and general requirements to a six percent (6%) maximum. The builder's profit, overhead, and general requirements percentage will be applied to construction hard costs.
ADFA reserves the right to determine whether costs included in the developer's fee and builder's profit calculations are appropriate and reasonable.
Applicants must submit a final development cost certification supported by an audit report performed by a Certified Public Accountant prior to issuance of IRS Form 8609.
On Rural Housing developments, the final cost certification accepted by Rural Housing must be submitted along with a final development cost certification supported by an audit report, performed by a Certified Public Accountant prior to issuance of IRS Form 8609.
Developments approved for Housing Credits must comply with local and federal regulations pertaining to unit accessibility and construction standards to accommodate persons with physical disabilities.
In a development with Housing Credits, the lead-based paint requirements apply to all units and common areas in the development.
The Authority requires that occupancy of all housing financed or otherwise assisted by ADFA be open to all persons regardless of race, sex, national origin, religion or creed and that contractors and subcontractors engaged in the construction or rehabilitation of such housing shall provide equal opportunity for employment without discrimination as to race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status or national origin.
Applicants must comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, including Section 42 of the Code. ADFA's Compliance Monitoring Policies and Procedures Manual for the Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program may be obtained from ADFA's office, and may also be accessed at ADFA's website (www.state.ar.us/adfa). Fair Housing manuals may be obtained from HUD's Little Rock office, and the Fair Housing Accessibility Guidelines may be accessed at HUD's website (www.hud.gov). Once this site is found, use the following link to the information needed:
Under the title "Pick your Group"
Click on Fair Housing/Civil Rights
Under the title "General Information"
Click on Fair Housing Accessibility Guidelines.
As part of the compliance procedures, all Housing Credit recipients will be required to execute a Land Use Restriction Agreement for the Housing Credit (this agreement will be furnished by the Authority with the Housing Credit reservation letter). The Land Use Restriction Agreement, at a minimum, will require conditions wherein the developer and the development must continuously comply with IRS § 42 and other applicable sections of the Code and the Treasury Regulations.
The Land Use Restriction Agreement will also restrict the rent that may be charged for the low-income units. The owner will also be required to prepare and submit to the Authority, no later than January 15 of each year following the first year in which ten percent (10%) of the units in the development are occupied, an Annual Owner Certification of Compliance and the Compliance Monitoring Status Report, under penalty of perjury to the Authority that complies with Internal Revenue Service procedures for monitoring compliance with the Housing Credit requirements. The compliance monitoring procedures apply to all buildings placed in service in Arkansas that have received allocations of Housing Credits as determined by Section 42 of the Code. Regular site inspections to monitor compliance with habitability standards applicable to the project will be carried out by the Authority at least once every three (3) years.
In the event the Authority becomes aware of non-compliance or upon the failure to provide the Authority a Certificate of Compliance, the Authority will notify the Owner of the areas of non-compliance and the required timeframe to correct the deficiencies. There is a maximum of sixty (60) days to correct such non-compliance. Additionally, the Authority will notify the IRS as required of any non-compliance or failure to certify no later than forty-five (45) days after the end of the allowed time for correction.
ADFA will follow the Code rule on carryover allocation. In order to qualify for a carryover allocation, the developer's basis in the property at the end of the year in which the allocation is received must be at least 10% of the amount that the development's basis is reasonably expected to be at the end of the second year following the allocation year as mandated by the Code. If the development is not placed in service after the second year, the credits will not be reissued. The required documentation for a carryover allocation must be submitted to the Authority by December 15 of the year the Housing Credits are reserved.
In the event a reservation of credits is received in the second half of the calendar year, the taxpayer must expend an amount equal to at least ten percent (10%) of the development's reasonably expected basis within six (6) months of receiving the reservation to qualify under the ten percent (10%) test, regardless of whether the ten percent (10%) is met by the end of the calendar year.
The appropriate application fee (determined from the list below) must be included with the application and be in the form of a check payable to the Arkansas Development Finance Authority.
|
Developments, four (4) units or less |
$300.00 |
|
Non-Profit Sponsor (more than four (4) units) |
$300.00 |
|
For Profit Sponsor (more than four (4) units) |
$500.00 |
Regardless of the funding decision, the application fees are non-refundable. However, if a development is not selected in an allocation cycle and chooses to compete in a subsequent cycle, an additional application fee will not be required.
A non-refundable fee of $100.00 per low-income unit will be required at the time of reservation.
A fee of $100.00 per low-income unit will be required at the time of allocation of State Housing Credits.
A one-time fee of six percent (6%) of the total annual allocation will be required at the time of the allocation of the Housing Credits only.
The Authority is charged with allocating no more tax credits to any given development than is required to make that development economically feasible. This decision shall be made solely at the discretion of the Authority, but in no way represents or warrants to any sponsor, investor, lender or any one else that the project is, in fact, feasible or viable.
ADFA's review of documents submitted in connection with the allocation is for its own purposes. ADFA makes no representations to the owner or anyone else as to compliance with the Code, Treasury regulations, or any other laws or regulations governing Housing Credits. The applicant is responsible for understanding and following all applicable tax law requirements for the development.
No director, officer, agent or employee of ADFA shall be personally liable concerning any matters arising out of, or in relation to, the allocation of the Housing Credit.
Adopted by the Board of Directors of the Arkansas Development Finance Authority this _____
day of November, 2001.
