How do funding records differ?
Four records. Four different meanings.
These are separate measures, not a guaranteed sequence. Evidence of one does not establish the others.
Approved
Permission or a ceiling.
What does this establish?
An adopted action or authorization shows what is permitted. It does not prove that an agreement was executed or money was paid.
Moreland II's assistance authorizationFinancing secured
A financing event.
What does this establish?
A reported closing describes financing. Read the closing documents and the funder’s role before describing it as City spending.
Moreland I's reported financing closingMoney spent
A dated payment or expenditure.
What does this establish?
Look for disbursement or expenditure records matched to the program, project and period. A reported program total may not identify a specific project.
Why an annual Capital Fund expenditure row needs contextHousing delivered
A reported housing milestone.
What does this establish?
Read the completion or opening record with its date and evidence status. It does not by itself establish current occupancy or available vacancies.
25th @ Bell's draft completion report
03 / What remains unknown
Good questions need the right records.
A gap in the reviewed evidence does not by itself establish misuse.
Which assisted apartments overlap?
Different programs can designate apartments at the same property. Match the schedules before counting unique homes.
Follow the questionWhat was actually paid?
Project-specific disbursements are needed before calculating spending per apartment.
Follow the questionHow do differing records connect?
An executed amendment or explanatory transaction may be needed; a later date alone does not reconcile the statements.

The 104 already includes both portions. Keep the townhomes separate from the apartment count. The financing record does not establish completed or occupied homes.

PHX-WEB-029Salvation Army family shelter expansion has up to $8 million in HOME-ARP authority
Phoenix replaced the original $6 million CDBG and CDBG-CV commitment with up to $6 million in HOME-ARP in 2023. Council added up to $2 million in 2025, bringing the HOME-ARP authority to $8 million. The City announced the site dedication on May 12, 2026.
The initial CDBG commitment was replaced and cannot be added again. Funding authority does not establish cash paid. The ceremony marked the site for future construction. Opening, expenditures and people served by the expansion remain unverified.
The December 3, 2025 Council report describes a $10 million total project cost and a loan. The May 12, 2026 City announcement describes an estimated $8 million project and a grant. The reviewed sources leave the differences unexplained. An executed agreement, any amendments and a reconciled budget are needed to establish the terms and cost.

Open questions
These are research questions, not findings of wrongdoing. Missing records or unresolved differences alone do not establish misuse or noncompliance.
Which assisted apartments overlap?
Unit-level schedules are needed before combining designations from different funders at the same property.
When do affordability restrictions end?
Use executed restriction agreements, amendments and their start dates. Leave unverified end dates blank.
What was actually paid?
Match project-specific disbursement records to the funder, phase and period before calculating spending per apartment.
How do conflicting records get resolved?
Keep both dated sources visible until a correction, executed agreement or closeout record explains the difference.
