Authorize $3 million in bonds to fund housing rehabilitation projects

Police & Community SafetyBudget<UNKNOWN>

In Plain English

The city plans to issue Social Impact Bonds to raise money for fixing up housing in Richmond. These bonds work differently than regular city bonds because private investors get paid back based on whether the housing projects succeed. If approved, the city can borrow up to $3 million through this program.
