1 Understanding the Master Contract April 4, 2012

2 How Webinar Technology Works Only Cathy and the presenters can be heard; all others are in listen-only mode. Cathy will send each participant a two-digit code to enter into your conference call. This will give us a chance to activate your audio for questions. The control panel on your screen gives you a place to click to “raise your hand.” That will signal Cathy that you have a question. If we don’t get to you during the session, we will follow up with you afterward.

3 Goals for Today Go over the elements of the master contract. Review DHN-developed data concerning master contracts across the state. Hear from two counties about how they decided important questions about their contracts. --poll questions--

6 County Plan Template Purpose to assist county boards and housing corporations to engage in relevant conversation about current and future housing needs; to establish priority use of resources.

7 County Plans Submitted 2010-2011

8 Direct and Indirect Supports Housing corporations receive two primary types of support from county boards: – Direct cash subsidies – Indirect/In-Kind subsidies These can be alone or in combination.

9 Size matters! Smaller Housing Corporations (those that own 15 or fewer properties) are more likely to receive indirect subsidy support. Medium (16-75 properties) and Large (more than 75 properties) Housing Corporations are more likely to receive vacancy payment support.

10 Indirect Subsidies by County Boards In-kind Support Professional Staff- 42% of H.C. receive this subsidy, with an average annual value of approx. $35K Administrative Staff- 35% of H.C. receive this subsidy, with an average annual value of approx. $26K Maintenance Staff- 42% of H.C. receive this subsidy, with an average annual value of approx. $82K Office Space- 38% of H.C. receive this subsidy, with an annual value of $1,200- $10K

11 Direct Subsidies by County Boards Cash Maintenance Subsidy- 12% of H.C. receive this subsidy with a reported annual value ranging between $50 per site to $130K per year. Rental Subsidy- 54% of H.C. receive this subsidy, with an annual average per person of $3871 Development Revenue- the average H.C. receives approx. 11.6% of their development revenue for acquisitions from the County Board of DD Payment for Vacancies- 54% of H.C. receive this subsidy, with a wide variance on implementation. Examples include: after 30 days, after 45 days, until filled, by bedroom, $697/per month, $1250/per month.
