THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The council authorized Parish President Louis Pomes to sign a CAFA certificate approving up to $200 million in Capital Area Finance Authority revenue bonds that will fund down payment, closing cost, and homebuyer assistance programs. St. Bernard already has a CEA with CAFA, and this step allows CAFA to roll out bond-funded products locally. Lenders, housing counselors, and marketing firms can support outreach so eligible buyers in the parish actually use these tools.
Program covers first-time homebuyers within CAFA’s participating jurisdictions; St. Bernard participates via an executed CEA.
