Montgomery County Maryland Operating Budget

Budget Year / Version:

Mission Statement

The Department of Housing and Community Affairs (DHCA) works to preserve and increase the supply of affordable housing; maintain existing housing in a safe and sanitary condition; preserve the safety and quality of residential and commercial areas; ensure fair and equitable relations between landlords and tenants; and support the success of common ownership communities - all with a focus on reducing racial inequities and climate change impacts.

Budget Overview

The total approved FY26 Operating Budget for the Department of Housing and Community Affairs is $83,700,639, an increase of $5,173,358 or 6.59 percent from the FY25 Approved Budget of $78,527,281. Personnel Costs comprise 22.59 percent of the budget for 131 full-time position(s) and no part-time position(s), and a total of 125.00 FTEs. Total FTEs may include seasonal or temporary positions and may also reflect workforce charged to or from other departments or funds. Operating Expenses and Debt Service account for the remaining 77.41 percent of the FY26 budget.

In addition, this department's Capital Improvements Program (CIP) requires Current Revenue funding.

County Priority Outcomes

While this program area supports all eight of the County Result Areas, the following are emphasized:

A Greener County
An Affordable, Welcoming County for a Lifetime
Effective, Sustainable Government

Program Performance Measures

Performance measures for this department are included below (where applicable), with multi-program measures displayed at the front of this section and program-specific measures shown with the relevant program. The FY25 estimates reflect funding based on the FY25 approved budget. The FY26 and FY27 figures are performance targets based on the FY26 approved budget and funding for comparable service levels in FY27.

Initiatives

Provide $121.3 million in funding to produce and preserve affordable housing units in Montgomery County. This funding commitment includes allocating $12.4 million to the Montgomery Housing Initiative (MHI) Fund, $102.0 million to the Affordable Housing Acquisition and Preservation CIP projects, $5.0 million to the Affordable Housing Opportunity Fund, and $1.9 million to the Revitalization for Troubled and Distressed Common Ownership Communities CIP projects.
Provide $59.8 million in resources for the Montgomery Housing Initiative Fund to continue various programs and projects dedicated to creating and preserving affordable housing and related services. The funding will provide for the renovation of distressed housing, creation of housing units for special needs residents, rental assistance and rapid rehousing, homeless prevention and relocation assistance, homeowner downpayment assistance, home accessibility rehabilitation, services to the Building Neighborhoods to Call Home, and Housing First programs, and the creation of mixed-income housing.
Increase funding by $1.5 million for the homeownership assistance programs, which provide additional resources for first-time homebuyers with downpayment assistance and needed counseling services.
Provide $2.3 million in the Housing Initiative Fund to support leveraging additional resources for the Housing Production Fund.
Continue funding to support the Rental Housing Division in implementing and executing rent stabilization mandates, ensuring landlords can gain a fair return on their investment, and effectively providing needed services for tenants through the collaboration between the Rent Stabilization Program and the Office of Landlord and Tenant Affairs.
Increase licensing fees on multifamily rental units and short-term rentals to offset staffing needs. The revenue generated from the licensing fees will support programmatic operations with three additional personnel to directly enforce required mandates and improve service delivery through Licensing and Registration, Code Enforcement, and Short-Term Residential Rental programs.
Maintain the registration fee at $6.50 per unit for Common Ownership Communities but use the projected revenue balance to support a designated staff member to manage and administer the newly established loan program to revitalize troubled and distressed Common Ownership Communities (COC) and provide technical assistance to distressed COCs to help improve their long-term viability. This new loan program has identified two COC communities in FY25 that serve low-income homeowners for funding to address needed capital improvements and avoid the loss or displacement of housing units.
Continue to actively underwrite affordable housing loans to preserve and produce affordable housing. Fifteen multi-family developments have already been identified for potential funding in FY26. These developments would maintain or create 2,353 units, including 2,018 affordable units.

Innovations and Productivity Improvements

DHCA's Multifamily Housing Development Team successfully closed 17 residential real estate loan transactions in FY24, providing more than $84.5 million towards these developments to preserve, rehabilitate, or produce 1,133 affordable housing units at an average cost of $74,632 per unit.
DHCA's Moderately Priced Dwelling Unit (MPDU) program continues to generate new affordable units throughout the County. During FY24, the MPDU program generated 398 new MPDUs offered for sale (70 units) or rent (328 units).
The Commission on Common Ownership Communities successfully closed 80 cases in FY24. Of those, 66 cases were closed before a hearing, representing a success rate of 82.5 percent of all cases.
The Focused Neighborhood Assistance (FNA) program continues to provide additional funding in FY24 for site improvements and new lighting throughout the neighborhood in the Montclair Manor community of Silver Spring and completing the drainage improvements, new asphalt pedestrian pathways, and landscaping projects in the Wedgewood Community of Gaithersburg.
