The Senate Committee on Intergovernmental Relations will meet on Thursday,

invited and public testimony on the following interim committee charge:
 
Increasing the effectiveness of the Texas Department of Housing and
Community Affairs' (TDHCA) Housing Tax Credit (HTC) Program.  Examine
potential rule changes to the HTC Program's Qualified Allocation Plan to
give owners of mixed-income projects seeking low-income housing credits
the same opportunity to receive credits that low-income projects have,
thus helping cities address the problem of a lack of adequate quality
affordable housing while enhancing central city revitalization.
