Sec. 394.902. HOUSING FOR ELDERLY. (a) The housing finance corporation shall require that at least five percent of the units in a multifamily residential development be built or renovated and be reserved for the lifetime of the development for occupancy by elderly persons of low income or by families of low or moderate income in which an elderly person is the head of a household if the development:
(1) contains at least 20 units; and
