Those units include projects that were completed in the last fiscal year; are under construction; or have been approved for some financing assistance, according to a memorandum addressed to the City Council Housing and Homelessness Committee.

In total, 15,603 units are spread across all council districts. Of those, 14,016 are supported by the mixed-income housing development bonus, land transfers, land banks, low-income housing tax credits, the Dallas Public Facility Corporation, notice of funding availability and the Dallas Housing Finance Corporation. The 1,587 units leftover are being supported by the Office of Economic Development.
