CO HB 1061: Community Integration Housing Tax Credits

Score 36PRIMARYregulatoryState legislatureCO

Summary

Colorado HB 1061 creates a targeted allocation priority within the state's administration of federal and state affordable housing tax credits to support community-integrated housing for persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). The bill mandates that at least 10% of Colorado's annual competitive federal low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) allocation be set aside for qualifying "community integration housing," which must meet federal home- and community-based services (HCBS) settings standards.

What this may mean

The bill affects Colorado affordable housing developers and I/DD service providers seeking to develop HCBS-compliant residential settings, creating a dedicated funding stream through the LIHTC program. It does not directly alter Medicaid reimbursement rates, billing rules, or provider enrollment requirements, though compliance with federal HCBS settings standards is a qualifying condition for the tax credit set-aside. The Medicaid HCBS settings rule nexus is indirect.
