Use federal housing grants to pay off $851,401 in old city loans

Police & Community SafetyBudgetHousing and Community Development

In Plain English

The city borrowed money in 1999 through a federal loan program to fund housing projects. Richmond now wants to pay off these loans early using unused federal Community Development Block Grant funds from 2011-2014. If approved, the city eliminates ongoing loan payments and frees up future budget capacity.
