Hello All
I will be unable to attend this evening's meeting but wanted to share an update on the Housing Priority activity (RVSD doc is 1st attachment) .
Per a post-Session Housing legislation and funding update, I have modified the 2025 Housing Bills Update doc we had previously sent out.
The HB2 funding to set aside $110 M (item 40 on the 2nd attachment) for "Housing, Affordable Housing, transitional housing and expansion of housing services...for persons with behavioral health needs"... was modified by the Gov last Friday. The Gov amended/crossed out the Legislature's directive that $80M (of the $110M) be given to ABQ City/Bernalillo County and $10M be given to Las CrucesDona Ana County -- but the Gov did not veto the $110M allocation as a whole.
I will continue to find out what/where the $110M for Housing will be allocated and keep you all posted.
Best regards,
Janie McGuigan
