The proposed bill establishes a loan agreement between the District of Columbia and Harvard Court Owner LLC for a total of $24,290,185 from the Housing Production Trust Fund (HPTF). This funding is designated for the development of 108 affordable housing units at 1425 Harvard Street NW, with 86 units reserved for households earning at or below 50% of the Median Family Income (MFI) and 22 units for those at or below 30% of MFI. The loan is structured as a 42-year agreement with a 3% interest rate, and the bill includes provisions for compliance with affordability covenants, ensuring that the units remain affordable in perpetuity. The bill also outlines the requirements for loan disbursements, including the need for an Annual Owner Certification and adherence to local and federal regulations.

Additionally, the bill emphasizes the importance of labor standards and compliance with federal regulations for construction projects funded by the District. It mandates that all laborers and mechanics receive at least the minimum wage as determined by the Secretary of Labor, with strict requirements for record-keeping and transparency in wage payments. The bill also introduces provisions for the employment of apprentices, ensuring compliance with equal employment opportunity standards and the Davis-Bacon Act. Overall, the legislation aims to facilitate the development of affordable housing while promoting fair labor practices and accountability in the management of public resources.
