Applications are due by 3 p.m. on Dec. 30, 2021.
Applications are being accepted to fill one appointment on the Pinellas County Housing Finance Authority for a term of four years beginning on Feb. 1, 2022.
The mission of the Housing Finance Authority is to assure that financing for affordable housing remains available to residents of Pinellas County. This is accomplished through the issuance of single-family and multi-family bonds and programs that support housing needs in the community. Applicants with multifaceted work experiences are strongly desired and should have experience with affordable housing. Applicants must be registered to vote in Pinellas County.
This is a working board, and the Authority is seeking members who can dedicate the time to attend monthly meetings consistently. Meetings of the Authority are held, usually, on the first Wednesday of each month at 3 p.m. Board positions are unpaid and voluntary.
Housing Finance Authority board members also serve on the Affordable Housing Advisory Committee, which meets three to five times per year. The Committee is tasked with the evaluation of established County policies and procedures, ordinances, land development regulations, and comprehensive plan to provide recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) in order to facilitate affordable housing.
