PRG will operate the rental community and has allocated a capital expenditure budget to address deferred maintenance in common areas and complete necessary upgrades to building systems. This project has a Section 8 PBV (project-based voucher) contract with HPD on 100 units and the remaining 214 units are limited to Mitchell Lama rents (though some have tenant-held vouchers which allow for the payment of a higher rent). The business plan is to increase the number of units on the PBV contract over the 5 year hold period upon residents moving out.
