Affordable Housing

AIF SUPPORTS full appropriation of the Sadowski Affordable Housing Trust Fund monies (currently estimated to be $153.4 million for FY 2012-13) to be used solely for affordable housing projects.

The Sadowski funds will promote home ownership, stimulate economic growth with public-private partnerships, and provide a financial boost many times greater than the amount of state funds appropriated for housing. If these dollars are used for their intended purposes instead of funding the state’s budget, they will create approximately 11,800 jobs and approximately $1.18 billion in economic activity.
