Code of Virginia - Title 36 Housing - Section 36-142 Creation and management of Fund

§ 36-142. Creation and management of Fund

There shall be set apart as a permanent and perpetual fund, to be known as the "Virginia Housing Partnership Revolving Fund," sums appropriated to the Fund by the General Assembly, sums as may be allocated to the Commonwealth for this purpose by the United States government, all receipts by the Fund from loans made by it to housing sponsors and persons and families of low and moderate income, all income from the investment of moneys held in the Fund, and any other sums designated for deposit to the Fund from any source, public or private. The Fund is created to address the serious shortage in the Commonwealth of safe and decent residential housing at prices that persons and families of low and moderate income can afford. Housing developments and housing projects funded through the Fund are intended to provide additional affordable housing opportunities for low and moderate income Virginians, by preserving existing housing units, by producing new housing units and by assisting persons with special needs to obtain adequate housing.

The Fund shall be administered and managed by the HDA as prescribed in this chapter. In order to carry out the administration and management of the Fund, the HDA is granted the power to employ officers, employees, agents, advisers and consultants, including, without limitation, attorneys, financial advisers, public accountants, engineers and other technical advisers and, the provisions of any other law to the contrary notwithstanding, to determine their duties and compensation without the approval of any other agency or instrumentality. The HDA may disburse from the Fund its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in the administration and management of the Fund and a reasonable fee to be reviewed by the Board for its management services, which fee shall not exceed such amount as would be customary and usual for the services rendered.
