Appendix_D,_AMI_Chart_2026.pdf

This is an Appendix D document containing the Fiscal Year 2026 Area Median Income (AMI) Chart for the City of St. Petersburg, Florida, establishing income limits across eight household sizes for multiple affordable housing programs. The chart applies to four primary funding sources: the State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) program, effective April 1, 2025; the HOME Investment Partnerships Program, effective June 1, 2024; the Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP), effective May 1, 2024; and Tax Increment Financing (TIF). The income limits are stratified at 30%, 50%, 60%, 80%, 100%, 120%, and 140% of AMI, with varying application across programs. For a single-person household, the 30% AMI limit is $21,950, escalating to $102,200 at 140% AMI, while an eight-person household ranges from $54,150 at 30% AMI to $192,780 at 140% AMI.

The AMI chart directly supports the Youth & Young Adult Employment Program RFP-26-168, which prioritizes program participants from the South St. Petersburg Community Redevelopment Area whose household income does not exceed 120% of Area Median Income. This income ceiling ensures that selected vendors target economically disadvantaged youth and young adults aged 15-24, with the 2026 AMI limits establishing eligibility thresholds for family-based income verification. The chart serves as the authoritative reference document for determining participant eligibility across the program's various service delivery and employer engagement activities, with income verification required during the recruitment and screening processes administered by the selected program vendor.
