Can IST infrastructure funds be used for a leased property? Does it still require the 20–30-year restrictive covenant?

IST infrastructure funds CAN be used to rehabilitate or furnish a leased facility; however, IST infrastructure funds MAY NOT be used for lease payments. If an applicant leases a property and utilizes IST funding to make capital improvements, a 20–30-year restrictive covenant agreement between DSH and the property owner is required.

Research and consulting firm Advocates for Human Potential, Inc. (AHP) provides project management services to DSH for the process of awarding IST Infrastructure funding. Responsibilities include outreach, technical assistance, solicitation, selection, negotiation and contracting.
