This is a hard bid project. The lowest responsible bidder will be selected to perform the Work. One Contract will be awarded for all Work. 1.1 BACKGROUND As the housing and development agency of Nashville and Davidson County, MDHA's mission is to create quality affordable housing opportunities, support neighborhoods, strengthen communities and help build a greater Nashville. The Agency owns and/or manages nearly 6,600 apartments at nearly 40 properties/developments and administers more than 8,000 vouchers, providing stable housing to approximately 30,000 people. The Agency also facilitates several programs that ensure affordable apartments are created and preserved. Established in 1938, MDHA is a government agency predominately funded by the federal government and chartered by the state to serve Davidson County. It is governed by a seven-member Board of Commissioners appointed by the mayor and confirmed by Metro Council. As the largest owner and operator of affordable housing in Nashville, MDHA seeks every opportunity to be a leading voice in developing solutions to Nashville's housing affordability crisis. o MDHA is committed to transforming its aging family properties into mixedincome communities. The process ensures a one-for-one replacement of the existing federally subsidized units at each site and deconcentrates poverty by adding new affordable, workforce and market-rate housing. The Agency's first transformation at Cayce Place has been demonstrating promising returns through community engagement, safety outcomes and new modern apartment buildings. o MDHA's Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) program was first approved by Metro Council in 2016. In the first eight years, the program has assisted in creating and preserving more than 10,000 affordable apartments. The PILOT program provides financial incentives for Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) developments that encourage new construction and substantial rehabilitation of affordable multi-family housing. o MDHA has also converted nearly 1,100 of its Tenant-Based Vouchers to project-based vouchers, ensuring units remain affordable for 15 to 20 years. This move has allowed MDHA to assist with creating nearly 900 new apartments and preserving more than 200 affordable apartments. MDHA administers four Community Planning and Development (CPD) programs on behalf of the city of Nashville: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA). These funds are awarded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Agency also oversees 11 Redevelopment Districts, manages Metro's Tax Increment Financing (TIF) program and serves as a developer for the city. One of its current projects is the rebuild of historic Second Avenue. MDHA's strategic plan focuses on four primary goals: o Preserve and expand affordable housing in Nashville; o Provide sustainable and healthy communities; o Cultivate, enhance and evaluate strategic partnerships; o Continuously improve MDHA's operations. With MDHA at the helm, and multiple partners from the public and private sectors working together, we can expand and preserve affordable housing in Nashville.
