The Nebraska Department of Economic Development (DED) will hold a public comment period from November 30, 2023, to January 4, 2024, to accept feedback on the proposed 2024 Qualified Allocation Plan (QAP) for the Nebraska Affordable Housing Trust Fund (NAHTF).

The QAP lays out plans for the distribution of an anticipated $12.75 million in NAHTF resources. Established in 1996, the NAHTF supports governmental subdivisions; public housing authorities; community action agencies; community-based, neighborhood-based, or reservation-based nonprofits; and for-profit entities working in conjunction with one of these eligible applicants in their efforts to develop quality, affordable housing units that benefit households at or below 120% of the area median income.

Copies of the proposed QAP will be available on the DED website on November 30, 2023, at the following link: https://opportunity.nebraska.gov/programs/plans-reports/.

Copies can also be requested by contacting Barb Pierce at 402-936-4587 or barb.pierce@nebraska.gov.

To submit comments, email them to: DED.PublicComment@nebraska.gov. Comments must be received by the Department on or before 11:59 PM (Central Time) on January 4, 2024.
