Press release from the City of Houston : October 11, 2021 October 11, 2021 -- Please attribute the following statement to Mayor Sylvester Turner. "Regarding the 2020 Multifamily DR-17 Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA), dated August 16, 2021, no multifamily development has been placed on the city council agenda by this administration for council to consider nor has the NOFA funded any development. "The administration will put forth the following developments for council consideration to receive gap funding from the NOFA: "The Huntington at Bay Area development, will not be recommended for funding. While it would have created affordable housing for seniors in District E, where there has been no affordable multifamily housing constructed since 2016, and never in the Clear Lake area, the project has become too much of a distraction for the administration's agenda and for this city."
