What’s in it
Currently, certain economic development tax credit amounts are capped at $170 million in the aggregate per fiscal year under Code section 15.119. In allocating the tax credits pursuant to Code section 15.119, the workforce housing tax incentive program limit is $35 million in most instances, and of that amount allocated to workforce housing tax incentives, $17.5 million is reserved for projects in small cities. Of the remaining moneys not allocated to small cities, this bill specifies that no more than one-third of the remaining moneys shall be reserved for qualified housing projects wholly located in the two most populous counties in the state, that are registered on or after July 1, 2025.
