ORCA Available Resources & Waitlist Status

With the new investments from the 2025 Oregon Legislature, OHCS is now transitioning the ORCA to allocate those funds to projects in the ORCA waitlist pipeline. Though there was significant investment in housing production, it was less than anticipated in the Governor's Recommended Budget, and we expect the resources will be swiftly reserved to projects at the top of our waitlist where the funds are sufficient to do so. Project recommendations to Housing Stability Council will begin in August, and we expect that most resources could be fully committed to projects on the current ORCA waitlist as soon as October of this year.
