((Grants))Awards from this appropriation may only be used for the construction of units affordable at 80 percent of area median income or lower, if a project includes a range of affordability levels. The department shall work with the department of transportation to develop and administer a competitive grant or loan program to assist in the financing of housing projects within rapid transit corridors. The department shall implement the program pursuant to the following eligibility criteria and definitions:
(1) Entities eligible to receive ((grant)) awards are state agencies, local governments, and nonprofit or for-profit housing developers. Eligible uses of ((grant)) awards include project capital costs and infrastructure costs and addressing gaps in project financing that would prevent ongoing or complete project construction.
(2) Eligible housing projects must meet the following requirements:
(a) Be within a rapid transit corridor. For purposes of this subsection (2), "rapid transit corridor" includes either one-half mile from light rail or commuter rail, or one-quarter mile from bus rapid transit.
(b) Produce at least 100 units of housing; and
(c) Include a covenant on the property requiring at least 10 percent of total housing units in the project remain affordable for households with incomes at or below 60 percent of area median income and at least 10 percent of total housing units in the project remain affordable for households with incomes at or below 80 percent of area median income for at least 99 years.
(3) The department must prioritize eligible projects by occupancy date, with a target occupancy date of December 31, 2025, or sooner.
(4) To source project requests, the department may first review the list of housing trust fund applications from the prior two years to determine if any projects not fully funded would meet the criteria listed in subsection (2) of this section and would be able to proceed to construction. If so, the department must conduct outreach to those project owners to discuss the ((grant)) program before soliciting new projects.
(5) The department must also consider the following criteria when prioritizing all projects:
(a) Are comprised of the largest number of affordable units;
(b) Have the largest total number of units affordable to households with incomes at or below 60 percent area median income;
(c) Include land acquired at a reduced price or without cost;
(d) Abide by any applicable antidisplacement measures;
(e) Include units with additional bedrooms or intended for occupancy by families with multiple dependents; or
(f) Have acquired all necessary permits.
(6) The department may adopt any necessary guidance or rules to implement the competitive grant or loan program under this section, including any additional project eligibility criteria and prioritization criteria.
(7) The department must report a program update and any projects awarded on their website by June 30, 2024. The report must include project award data at the time of award, such as, but not limited to, the awardee, total project cost, amount of the award, number of households being served by household income, project location, and any other relevant information.
(8) The department must strive to allocate the amounts appropriated in this section by September 30, 2024, in the manner prescribed in this section. However, if upon review of applications the department determines there are not adequate suitable projects to receive awards, the department may allocate state funding to other affordable housing projects serving other low-income and special needs populations.

FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

The appropriations in this section are subject to the following conditions and limitations:
(1) The department shall not expend the appropriation in this section unless and until the nonstate share of project costs have been either expended or firmly committed, or both, in an amount sufficient to complete the project or a distinct phase of the project that is useable to the public for the purpose intended by the legislature. This requirement does not apply to projects where a share of the appropriation is for design costs only.
(2) Prior to receiving funds, project recipients must demonstrate that the project site is under control for a minimum of 10 years, either through ownership or a long-term lease. This requirement does not apply to appropriations for preconstruction activities or appropriations in which the sole purpose is to purchase real property that does not include a construction or renovation component.
(3) Projects funded in this section may be required to comply with Washington's high performance building standards under chapter
39.35D RCW.
(4) Project funds are available on a reimbursement basis only and may not be advanced under any circumstances.
(5) In contracts for grants authorized under this section, the department shall include provisions that require that capital improvements be held by the grantee for a specified period of time appropriate to the amount of the grant and that facilities be used for the express purpose of the grant. If the grantee is found to be out of compliance with provisions of the contract, the grantee shall repay to the state general fund the principal amount of the grant plus interest calculated at the rate of interest on state of Washington general obligation bonds issued most closely to the date of authorization of the grant.
(6) Projects funded in this section, including those that are owned and operated by nonprofit organizations, are generally required to pay state prevailing wages.
(7) The department must comply with the requirements set forth in executive order 21-02 and must consult with the department of archaeology and historic preservation and affected tribes on the potential effects of these projects on cultural resources and historic properties. Consultation with the department of archaeology and historic preservation and affected tribes must be initiated before project funds are made available.
