Goodwin reviewed the specifics of SHB 1406 that allowed jurisdictions to enact a local sales tax for the purpose of affordable housing and HB 1590 that allowed jurisdictions to impose a 0.1% local sales and use tax to support affordable housing. Interlocal Agreements were entered into in 2021 and 2023, relating to the pooling sales tax receipts with SKHHP and in 2022, SKHHP launched the first funding round of the Housing Capital Fund. In 2023, the second annual Housing Capital Fund application opened. Six applications were received and the SKHHP Advisory Board reviewed and made recommendations to the SKHHP Executive Board to fund four of the six projects. The Executive board agreed with most of the recommendations and is seeking concurrence from each jurisdiction. The recommended total is $5,747,306. Goodwin reviewed the four recommended projects: 1. Mercy Housing NW - Kent Multicultural Village: Kent 2. LIHI - Skyway Affordable Housing and Early Learning Center: Unincorporated South King County 3. TWG - Pandion at Star Lake: Kent 4.
