SUMMARY:Preparing your Housing Program for Hurricane Season
DESCRIPTION:Effectively moving survivors into post-disaster housing is a critical step toward long-term recovery. However\, many jurisdictions do not have disaster housing plans that can cope with the scale of disasters. Participants will review the steps in the FEMA Planning Considerations and FHC Guide to developing a housing recovery plan; identifying and quantifying potential impacts to your vulnerable communities and housing stock to developing strategic goals and objectives for repair and recovery\, creating and leading your disaster housing working group\, improving collaboration with long-term recovery groups\, VOADs and preparing FEMA data request documents which can help you strategically allocate resources to impacted owners and renters. This session will walk you through key checklists and documents to update and strengthen your plan.

SUMMARY:Credit Underwriting and Development of Homeownership Projects
DESCRIPTION:With rising construction costs and skyrocketing property insurance costs\, developing affordable for sale homes is difficult. Before the land is conveyed\, the feasibility of a development must be underwritten. The presenters will outline the process a credit underwriter uses to assess the financial feasibility of an affordable homeownership project. Participants will consider the calculations involved with answering questions like:  What is the maximum price the home can be sold for? Does the sales price support the cost of developing the home? How much Downpayment Assistance is needed for the homes sold to the lower AMIs? How does a community land trust affect the project financially?

SUMMARY:Overcoming NIMBY Opposition
DESCRIPTION:Not In My Backyard Syndrome (NIMBYism)\, in the context of affordable housing\, connotes objections to new housing development made for reasons such as fear and prejudice. Even with the extreme need for more affordable housing\, NIMBYism is still all-too common in parts of our state. This training webinar will explore ways the affordable housing ecosystem can dispel NIMBY opposition to affordable housing through tactics to support affordable housing as fundamentally vital community infrastructure. This webinar will feature affordable housing practitioners who have experienced and overcome NIMBYism. This webinar is designed for developers\, local elected officials\, city and county managers\, and city and county attorneys.

SUMMARY:WORKSHOP:  The Affordable Housing Development Process
DESCRIPTION:LOCATION: Holden Heights Community Center\n1201 20th Street\, Orlando\, FL 32805 \nThis workshop is designed to introduce the underwriting process that takes place after a funding award has been approved.  The invitation to credit underwriting is a vital first step to prepare for before applying for financing.  It is a complex and critical part of financial agreements that will govern the short- and long-term process of the development’s feasibility.  The presenters will help de-mystify the underwriting process and provide guidance that begins in the predevelopment phase and continues throughout the closing process.  Participants will receive step by step instruction about third-party analyses and the documentation that will be required throughout the underwriting process. The training will include information from a FHFC Credit Underwriting service provider and will address timeframes and sequencing.  This training is provided for newly formed and experienced nonprofit housing developers and local government housing staff who are responsible for in-house underwriting of SHIP\, HOME\, or other publicly available assistance. \nWho Should Attend? \n\nNonprofit developers\nDevelopers working with cities and counties\nHousing program administrators and community partners interested in affordable housing development\n\nKey Topics: \n\nExploring the Credit Underwriting Checklist\nUnderstand the three components of successful Credit Underwriting: the project readiness\, the financial feasibility of the deal\, and the developer capacity\nIn-house credit underwriting: skillsets required and minimum threshold

SUMMARY:Scoring Live Local: An Early Look at the Suitability of Sites Using the LLA's Land Use Mandate
DESCRIPTION:Scoring Live Local – An Early Look at the Suitability of Sites Using the LLA’s Land Use Mandate\nDescription: \nThe Live Local Act introduced a land use mandate permitting affordable housing developments meeting certain conditions on land zoned for commercial\, industrial\, and mixed use. The Act raised questions on the location of projects taking advantage of this mandate – would the override of local land use controls allowing these developments in non-residential areas promote projects in places less suitable for homes? Or would other parameters and forces guiding development still steer projects to suitable areas? The Florida Housing Coalition undertook a locational scoring analysis to better understand these questions now that this mandate is two years old. \nThis webinar will explore FHC’s process and takeaways when scoring 92 proposed Live Local sites for housing suitability. The Coalition analyzed proximity of these projects to a set of amenities (parks\, schools\, grocery stores\, and more) and distance from land uses typically requiring buffers from residential development (industrial uses and other land uses that might create negative impacts on nearby housing). Tune in to hear us release this information as we continue to analyze the effectiveness of the Live Local Act.
