contractors and small businesses that employ people residing in the ✓ icinity of the NSP3 projects to participate in the NSP3. The County will specify in housing partner contracts that housing partners will reach out to individuals in the target area when hiring new employees and when selecting service providers. Services that are needed to carry out the County's NSP3 Abbreviated Action Plan that are not secured by the County's NSP3 housing partner o rganization(s) will be advertised in accordance with the County's CDBG Procurement Policies, as modified by State and Federal procurement procedures. A reference to the NSP3 local hiring preference will be included in advertisements. According to County Property Appraiser data, there are a total of ;;659,030 housing units within the expanded target area. Of those 3,6599 030 housing units, 3,442 8,483(94493.9%) are designated as Single Family, 40371 (1.14.1%) are designated as residential condominiums, and 1764 (4-81.:9%) are designated as rental apartments. All of the 1746 rental apartments are included as part of 1 apartment complex. Because the target area consists overwhelmingly of single family owner occupied homes and owner occupied condominium units, it would be problematic for the County to pursue the development of affordable rental housing in the target area. Therefore, a rental housing strategy with procedures to create preferences for the development of affordable rental housing is not proposed. Through the program, the County commits to acquiring, rehabilitating, and selling thirteen (13) single family housing units to income qualified households. Of those thirteen (13) housing units ten (10) a will be sold to households with incomes at or below 120% AMI, and three (3) will be sold to households at or below 50% AMI. While the County commits to the thirteen (13) total housing units for NSP3, the county anticipates acquisition and rehabilitation of between twenty (20) and twenty four (24) with the NSP3 $1,500 428 base allocation. Because the County cannot predict future market conditions and does not want to be locked into a number that is too high, the County is committing to fewer than the 20-24. In addition to the housing units to be acquired and rehabbed with the base NSP3 allocation, the County anticipates using NSP1 and NSP3 Program Income to acquire and rehab another eight (8) to ten (10) housing units. That should result in the County's total number of units being closer to the HUD NSP3 Target Area Mapping software's projected n umber of units to make an impact. These numbers do not take into account the number of homes in the target area that Indian River Habitat for Humanity has already acquired, rehabilitated and sold.
