In selecting proposals for financing, the agency shall balance its activity between urban metropolitan, nonmetropolitan, and rural metropolitan areas of the state in general proportion to the needs identified in the California Statewide Housing Plan.
Insofar as feasible, the agency shall attempt to provide financing for housing specifically designed for occupancy by particular types of lower income households in general proportion to the proportionate need identified in the California Statewide Housing Plan and shall concentrate financing of construction and rehabilitation and financing for the sale of existing housing in areas of need as identified in the California Statewide Housing Plan or pursuant to regulations adopted pursuant to subdivision (g) of Section 50462.
The agency may also give priority consideration to, and reserve funds for use in connection with, large urban revitalization programs.
To facilitate the implementation of that portion of the agency’s mandate to serve nonmetropolitan and rural metropolitan areas of the state in general proportion to the needs identified in the statewide housing plans, the agency shall, in nonmetropolitan and rural metropolitan areas, actively and aggressively pursue the development and financing of projects in communities of various sizes in general proportion to the communities’ needs. The annual reports required of the agency pursuant to Section 51005 shall specifically enumerate the agency’s progress towards meeting its mandate to serve nonmetropolitan and rural metropolitan areas, and shall assess any obstacles or problems which it has encountered in meeting this mandate, and suggest legislative and administrative solutions to overcome these obstacles or problems.
In enumerating its progress, the agency shall separately assess its progress in meeting the rehabilitation needs of rural areas and the new construction needs of rural areas, and separately assess its progress as to single and multifamily units. The agency shall include in its report an enumeration of its progress in meeting the housing needs of communities of various sizes in rural areas.
In order to facilitate implementation of local housing allocation plans, the agency may contract with a local public entity to reserve a portion of available credit and subsidy assistance for that area for one year. These contracts may be renewed annually by mutual agreement.
