Text

(a)
The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(1)
In 1990, the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act was enacted by the Congress and President of the United States as Public Law 101-625. The act affirms as a national goal that every American family be able to afford a decent home in a suitable environment. The act authorizes fifty-two billion dollars ($52,000,000,000) of expenditures on housing and community development during federal fiscal years 1991 and 1992.
(2)
Titles II
and IV of the National Affordable Housing Act enacted the HOME Investment Partnerships Act programs and the Homeownership and Opportunity for People Everywhere (HOPE) program, respectively. A requirement of the HOME and HOPE legislation is that a portion of the funding for each recipient project shall be matched by funds from nonfederal sources in order to carry out the homeownership program.
(b)
In enacting this chapter, it is therefore the intent of the Legislature to provide a mechanism for California to fulfill the nonfederal matching funds requirements.
