The Iowa Finance Authority and the Iowa
Economic Development Authority have
announced the 2nd annual Iowa Thriving
Communities designation. A designation as
an Iowa Thriving Community will provide
communities that are leveraging innovative
methods to attract housing opportunities
for their workforce a chance to be
recognized for their efforts. A limited
number of communities will be awarded the
designation, which comes with highly
sought after and lucrative scoring points for the Federal Housing Tax Credit and/or
Iowa Workforce Housing Tax Credit programs.
The scoring points will be available through the end of the calendar year following
the community’s designation as an Iowa Thriving Community. All communities are
eligible to apply for Iowa Thriving Community designations, and both rural and
urban cities are encouraged to apply! The application period opened February 8th
and applications are due May 15.
