Program Stabilization Fund: Five percent (5%) of the House LA Fund – Programs shall annually be allocated to address periodic revenue shortfalls for House LA Affordable Housing and Homelessness Prevention Programs that require a consistent revenue stream, as advised by the Department and the Oversight Committee and subject to City Council approval, to include project-based Operating Assistance, Income Support for Rent-Burdened At-Risk Seniors and Persons with Disabilities, Eviction Defense, and Tenant Outreach & Education programs, as those terms are used in this section. When the balance of the Program Stabilization Fund reaches two hundred million dollars ($200 million), excess revenue shall be evenly divided between and supplement the Multifamily Affordable Housing program in Section 22.618.3(d)(1)(ii).a., and the Alternative Models for Permanent Affordable Housing program in Section 22.618.3(d)(1)(ii).b. of this Code. If the Program Stabilization Fund falls below two hundred million dollars ($200 million), it shall be refunded to that amount before support to these two affordable housing programs may resume.
