HSC § 51069Div. 31 · Part 3 · Ch. 4

Statute text

The agency, after approving an application for mutual self-help housing, may make development loans and construction loans for land acquisition and development costs to eligible housing sponsors on terms and conditions and in amounts as it deems necessary to accomplish the purposes of this part. These development loans and construction loans may be interest free if sufficient surplus funds exist for that purpose and the loans can be made without jeopardizing the financial self-sufficiency of the agency or the adequacy of its reserves. Land acquired and housing developments financed pursuant to this section shall be sold or conveyed to eligible housing sponsors or for the purpose of developing other mutual self-help housing. In making loans pursuant to this section, the agency, as an alternative to disbursing the loans directly to eligible housing sponsors or persons and families of low or moderate income, may establish procedures retaining the loans or portions thereof, and disburse those amounts directly to the person or entity performing a service, or providing goods, material, land or improvements.
