The year 2022 marks the end of the 15-year tax credit compliance period in which NDC exits the partnership to close their fund. ECHDA's partnership over the last 15 years has been exceptional with NDC, so we hope to enter into a future LIHTC deal with NDC down the road. ECHDA plans to become the new Limited Partner and take over 99.99%of the total Partnership interest. Therefore,NDC is transferring their ownership for$3,000 which is to be paid once approved. The $3,000 fee covers NDC's legal fees for their exit,which is extremely generous to the partnership. Seniors on Broadway will remain affordable for a minimum of an additional 15 years into the future,per the rules of the LIHTC program.
