Affordable Housing Level Percentage

[Biuwa]

Overview

We need to change how the affordable housing checkbox on page 2 works with the drop-down on page 4 in order to

• fix a bug that let's have two different selections for affordable housing and inadvertently lower your project level below what your project is eligible for
• make it clearer for users

Details

Users are confused about how the housing level percentage is calculated as it appears on Page 2 and also on Page 4. While we were reviewing that we also found a hack that would let people have lower project level, which would later force an audit during the plan review.

How the 100% affordable housing choice is currently working in the calculator

Choices for fixing it

[Biuwa]

We will keep the check box on page 2 and when users arrive on page 4, it automatically selects '100% affordable' from the dropdown options. It will also show a warning if they try to change it on either page 2 or page 4 to anything that will increase the project level.

John will decide to make a generic message if any change is made to the project level by changing the drop-down selection or checkbox.
