The Bay City Housing Commission (BCHC) is continuing its plan to complete the repositioning of its public housing portfolio consisting of 193 units of scattered site housing. The BCHC has completed the program conversion of four high-rise properties representing 71% of its total portfolio of affordable housing with the Rental Assistance Demonstration Program (RAD).
The purpose of the Repositioning Plan is to transition public housing units (PH) out of the PH Program to a financial/ownership structure that (1) creates greater flexibility to access capital, (2) improve efficiency/effectiveness in operations through off-site replacement, and (3) increase the inventory of much needed, good quality affordable housing in Bay City, MI. The 193 public housing units will ultimately be replaced by 193 units of new affordable housing units developed in phases financed by proceeds from the sale of low-income housing tax credits (LIHTC).
The process begins with a series of Resident Information Meetings (RIMS). This website will serve as the HUB for distributing meeting notices and project updates as the process progresses. We encourage all stakeholders in this process to check this site periodically for updates. Following are links to the updates and information:
