HCHA meeting November 5, 2020 <br />income 70% of the program funds. Please define that for our county as what low <br />to moderate ... is that 80% AMI or what is that? And then what is the AMI? <br />Le: So low to moderate income, and these are HUD definitions, are 80% of our <br />area ... of our Counties Area Median Income. And so it, essentially for a <br />household of 1, 1 believe the ceiling is roughly $45,000, and it escalates from <br />there. I can ... sorry I don't have the figures memorized but we do have them on <br />our website where we address some of these issues ... but it is 80% of our area <br />median income. <br />Richards: Thanks Douglas that's as much for the public as that is, cause it's very <br />confusing as you all know, so yeah if we could get those numbers put out so <br />people understand what that means and that we have the lowest AMI, <br />Adjusted Median Income, in the State, I think that's an accurate statement, <br />correct?
