General considerations
The Ramsey the County Board of Commissioners (“County”) is accepting applications for the 2023 Ramsey County Solicitation (“Solicitation”) for eligible developments located within the boundaries of Ramsey County.
This Solicitation is offered once per year and consolidates and coordinates multiple housing resources into one application process. Applicants request funding for a specific housing development that meets a specific housing need, but generally do not apply for specific funding sources. Ramsey County Community and Economic Development (“CED”) staff evaluate the proposals and match eligible applicants with the most appropriate available funding source.
Funding award will result in a recorded Affordability Declaration with a length of 30 years.
The Solicitation Notice, located in the digital library on ZoomGrants is intended to provide general instructions and information regarding the County’s application and selection process. Each funding source is subject to specific requirements and limitations that are not set out in detail or modified by this document.
This document outlines steps and considerations for applying to the 2023 Housing Development Solicitation. The application will be available online and a link will be provided by County CED staff prior to the open application period. Applications that DO NOT include all the following specific materials by the applicable deadline will be considered ineligible for further processing.
