- Ramsey County (“County”) is accepting applications for the Support and Stabilize Solicitation (“Solicitation”) for eligible housing developments located within the boundaries of Ramsey County. This Solicitation is a funding opportunity for operators of distressed affordable rental housing to assist with the stabilization of occupancy rates and operating costs. More information can be found at www.ramseycounty.us/laha.
The Solicitation is available to an entity that owns affordable rental housing buildings in Ramsey County with average 2024 occupancy rates at, or below 93%. Qualifying buildings must have some units designated as “supportive housing” and can demonstrate an increase in operational costs that are contributing to financial distress. Approved awards will be funded with Local Affordable Housing Aid (LAHA). Applicants must request funding for a specific housing development at a specific address. Eligible projects can be located within the city of Saint Paul or in suburban Ramsey County. Applicants can be private entities or nonprofit entities.
