Houston City Council to vote on $21.3M in loans for affordable housing developments

Dec 12, 2022, 1:52pm CST

Houston City Council is set to vote Dec. 14 on proposals to allocate a total of about $21.3 million for two loans aimed at affordable housing.

As the cost of living continues to rise, Houston City Council is set to vote Dec. 14 on proposals to allocate a total of about $21.3 million for two loans aimed at affordable housing.

Of the two loans, the first is between the city and Tejano Center for Community Concerns — a program dedicated to helping those who are underserved, underrepresented and under resourced — for $19.3 million from a Community Development Block Grant, a federal disaster recovery fund.

If passed, the money will be used for the acquisition and development of OST Lofts, a $43 million development that will provide multifamily affordable housing. The National Equity Fund and Amegy Bank are the city's joint venture parters on the project. The Tejano Center is partnering with developer Donna Rickenbacker from Houston-based affordable housing provider DWR Development for the project.

Located at 5520 Old Spanish Trail, the OST Lofts will offer 130 units, 80% of which will be for residents who earn 60% or less of the area median income. There are expected to be 74 one-bedroom units, 44 two-bedrooms and 12 three-bedrooms.

If passed, the loan and duration of the affordability period for this project will be 40 years.

"A new 130-unit mixed-income housing development has broken ground in the Gulfgate neighborhood southeast of the University of Houston. In addition to a number of amenities common to apartment complexes — a pool, a fitness center, granite countertops — the OST Lofts will feature an unusual perk: free pre-K."
