The advertisement will specify the number of units SAHA estimates that it will <br />be able to assist under the funding SAHA is making available. <br />The City of Santa Ana Community Development Agency maintains a list of developers who <br />have expressed interest in developing affordable housing within the city. The advertisement will <br />be mailed directly to these developers. <br />In order for the proposal to be considered, the owner must submit the proposal to SAHA by the <br />published deadline date, and the proposal must respond to all requirements as outlined in the <br />RFP. Incomplete proposals will not be reviewed. <br />SAHA will rate and rank proposals for rehabilitated and newly constructed housing using the <br />following criteria (but not limited to these criteria): <br />Owner experience and capability to build or rehabilitate housing as identified in <br />the RFP; <br />Extent to which the project furthers SAHA's goal of deconcentrating poverty and <br />expanding housing and economic opportunities; <br />If applicable, the extent to which services for special populations are provided on <br />site or in the immediate area for occupants of the property; and <br />Extent to which projects have completed, or are in the process of completing, the <br />entitlement process with the City of Santa Ana. <br />SAHA Selection of Proposals Subject to a Previous Competition under a Federal, State, <br />or Local Housing Assistance Program <br />SAHA will accept proposals for PBV assistance from owners that were competitively <br />selected under another federal, state or local housing assistance program, including <br />projects that were competitively awarded Low-Income Housing Tax Credits on an <br />ongoing basis. <br />SAHA may periodically advertise that it is accepting proposals, in the following <br />newspapers: Orange County Register, Orange County Reporter, and mailed directly to <br />the developers on the interest list. <br />In addition to, or in place of advertising, SAHA may also directly contact specific owners <br />that have already been selected for Federal, state, or local housing assistance based on a <br />previously held competition, to inform them of available PBV assistance. <br />Proposals will be reviewed on a first-come first-served basis.
