    MEMORANDUM TO Governor Rick Snyder Sen. Jim Stamas, Chair, Senate Appropriations General Gov’t Subcommittee Rep. Laura Cox, Chair, House Appropriations General Gov’t Subcommittee John Roberts, State Budget Director Ellen Jeffries, Director, Senate Fiscal Agency Mary Ann Cleary, Director, House Fiscal Agency FROM: Kevin Elsenheimer Executive Director DATE: September 30, 2015 RE: FY 2015 Housing Production Goals Report Section 32(14) of P.A. 346 of 1966, as amended, requires the Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) to provide the Governor and the appropriate legislative committees with an annual housing report for housing projects financed by the Authority with bonds and notes. The following represents an assessment of FY 2015 production and the Authority’s goals for FY 2016. The Authority’s 2015 fiscal year ran from July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. Section 32(16)(a) requires the Authority to report whether the production goals for the previous fiscal year have been met, and, if not, why. The Authority exceeded its agency wide FY 2015 production goal to finance $180.1 million in new or rehabilitated housing, resulting in 2,454 units. By the end of the fiscal year, MSHDA had financed $238.5 million in new/renovated housing, resulting in 3,132 units. (See Exhibit 1.) The sections below provide production data for each program financed with bonds and notes and, for those programs that missed a goal, discusses the reasons why. In addition to its lending activity, the Authority also distributed $30.6 million in community development grants to local governments and nonprofit organizations in FY 2015.

Italianate House, 901 Fifth Street Figure 6.2-6. Italianate House, 1415 Fifth Street Figure 6.2-7. High Style Queen Anne House, 1817 Center Avenue Figure 6.2-8. High Style Queen Anne House, 1315 McKinley Avenue featuring an irregular roof form and slightly off-center two-story tower with conical roof on the front elevation. The single-story porch has an off-center entry accented with a shallow pediment. Eastlake details like spindles, a turned balustrade, and turned posts adorn the porch, which extends across the full front elevation and wraps around one corner. The house at 1315 McKinley Avenue also displays a wraparound porch, spindle detailing, steep roof, fish scale wall shingles, and cut-away bay on the front elevation. An umbrage porch on the second floor and multi-level gables on the primary façade add to the asymmetrical character of the house. More typical examples of Queen Anne houses in the district display a variety of these stylistic features. Examples of more common Queen Anne residences in Bay City include 1214 Fifth Street, 600 North Monroe Street, and 1516 Sixth Street (Figures 6.2-9, 6.2-10, and 6.2-11). In general, these buildings have irregular footprints and roof forms. Hipped roofs with cross-gabled bays are common, as are hip-on-gable or jerkinhead details. Porch styles vary but typically extend across the full or partial length of the front elevation and wrap around the building corner.
