2025 Housing Millage Application Portal Q&A

This Kalamazoo County Government meeting held on June 26, 2025, focused on the 2025 Housing Millage Application Portal and provided a detailed walkthrough of the Amplifund grant management system used for housing grant applications. The session covered how applicants can register, navigate the application portal, complete required forms, and upload necessary documentation such as proformas and rent worksheets for multifamily housing projects. Key procurement-related points included the award floor of $100,000 for grant requests, the importance of current tax status for eligibility, and the emphasis on funding projects that are ready to proceed rather than conceptual ideas. The meeting also outlined the scoring process by a subcommittee of commissioners, with final recommendations subject to full board approval. Technical assistance and support contact information were provided to applicants to facilitate the application process.
