OAR chapter 813, division 110 provides specific guidance pursuant to ORS 317.097 under which OHCS certifies affordable housing development projects sponsored by government entities, nonprofit corporations, and certain persons (“sponsoring entities” or “sponsors”) so as to enable a lending institution to claim Oregon affordable housing tax credits (“OAHTC” or “tax credits”) against Oregon taxes with respect to permanent loans for the construction, acquisition, rehabilitation, or refinancing of such projects. The purpose of the tax credits is to encourage the creation or preservation of safe, sanitary, and affordable housing for lower-income Oregonians.
