Legislation would stop Florida housing trust fund raid
Read full article: Legislation would stop Florida housing trust fund raidTALLAHASSEE, Fla. โ For the first time in almost 20 years, a Florida governor is recommending the state spend every dollar in the affordable housing trust fund for just that -- affordable housing. Funding for Floridaโs Affordable Housing Trust Fund comes from the tax on documents when someone buys a home. โWe have high housing prices, not enough inventory,โ said Jamie Ross, CEO of the Florida Housing Coalition. For every $48 the Legislature has spent from the trust fund on housing, $52 has gone to something else. State Sen. Ed Hooper, R-Fla., wants to stop future raids on the trust fund.
