Multifamily Bonus Sessions 

During the 2015 Kentucky Affordable Housing Conference, KHC will host two open forum bonus sessions for Kentucky affordable multifamily housing developers. 

 

The first session will be Wednesday, April 8, from 7-8:15 a.m. ET, prior to the conference opening plenary session. Colleen Fisher, executive director of the National Council for Affordable and Rural Housing, will lead a discussion to form a Kentucky Affordable Housing Developers Association outlining the benefits of a collective voice advocating for affordable housing needs in Kentucky. 

 

The second session will take place on Thursday, April 9, from 3:15-4:30 p.m. ET, immediately following the conference. Sujyot Patel and Lewis Diaz, with Dinsmore & Shohl LLP, will provide training on Tax Exempt Bond (TEB) financing strategies. Attendees will gain valuable insight in structuring viable TEB projects. KHC previously promoted the use of TEB over the years and recently began allocating gap funding to support the use of TEBs to address the increasing need for the preservation of existing affordable housing.

 

The forums will be held in the Jessamine/Franklin meeting room in the Hyatt Regency hotel adjoining the Lexington Convention Center. All multifamily developers, consultants, investors, or other interested parties are invited to attend.

 

To register for these bonus sessions, please contact Andrew Hawes toll-free in Kentucky at 800-633-8896 or 502-564-7630, extension 326; TTY 711; or email [email protected].

KHC's Analysis of Impediments Video 

KHC completed the Analysis of Impediments in 2014. KHC believes the Fair Housing Act is our most important civil right, as studies have demonstrated that everything in life depends upon where you live: our health is impacted as much by our zip code as our genetics. Our educational opportunities, our ability to get to a job, even our ability to have a job in the first place, are all impacted by where we live.


The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is proposing a new regulation on fair housing, which will require fair housing concerns to play a role in central planning decisions. It is unclear what form that proposed regulation will take, but KHC wants to be prepared and prevent any loss in funding. For more information, please watch the Analysis of Impediments video, which is located on KHC's YouTube training channel.
