(2)The authority shall identify, select, and make financing available to eligible applicants from money in the fund or from money secured by the fund for housing for low income, very low income, and extremely low income households and for projects located in a downtown area or adjacent neighborhood. This subsection does not preclude the authority from using other resources in conjunction with the fund for a purpose authorized under this chapter.
(3)The authority shall develop a biennial allocation plan providing for the allocation of money from the fund, according to all of the following:
(a)The allocation plan shall contain a formula for distributing money throughout the state based on the number of persons experiencing poverty, economic, and housing distress in various regions of the state.

(c)Not less than 25% of the fund shall be earmarked for rental housing projects that do not qualify under preferences for special population groups or other preferences contained in the allocation plan.
(d)Not less than 30% of the fund shall be earmarked for projects that target extremely low income households and include at a minimum developing housing for the homeless, supportive housing, transitional housing, and permanent housing.

(g)Money that has not been committed at the end of a fiscal year shall not be carried over in the category to which the money had been allocated during that fiscal year, but shall be reallocated for the next fiscal year according to the next fiscal year's allocation plan.
(5)Prior to developing the biennial allocation plan, the authority shall hold public hearings in at least 3 separate locations in this state regarding the content of the biennial allocation plan. The authority may make modifications to the allocation plan necessary to facilitate the administration of the Michigan housing and community development program or to address unforeseen circumstances.
