The solicitation P26001 issued by the Lorain Metropolitan Housing Authority dba Raise Up, based in Lorain, Ohio, requests proposals for Bond Counsel Services focused on supporting affordable multifamily housing projects within Lorain County. The contract encompasses the full lifecycle of bond financing transactions—anticipated at one to two annually—including pre-issuance financial structuring and strategy, execution of bond issuance, preparation and review of legal bond documents such as resolutions, indentures, tax certificates, and IRS filings, as well as post-issuance monitoring to ensure ongoing compliance with tax-exempt status and federal regulations. The services require expertise in Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), HUD programs like Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD), Section 18 conversions, and Section 8 Project-Based Voucher programs, along with comprehensive knowledge of applicable IRS, MSRB, SEC, and Ohio state laws governing municipal securities and affordable housing financing. While the solicitation emphasizes the need for proposers to adhere strictly to all provided terms, conditions, and regulatory frameworks, it lacks explicit inclusion of standard Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, detailed evaluation factors, or pricing and contract value information. Submissions are due by May 8, 2026, and all communications occur through a centralized Questions and Answers portal to ensure transparency. The solicitation does not specify formal inspection or acceptance protocols but implies that deliverables, including legal opinions and compliance documentation, will be reviewed and accepted by the government agency at its Lorain office. Special contractual requirements focus on the professional capabilities and regulatory compliance expertise of the bond counsel, without mention of security clearances, key personnel, option clauses, or organizational conflict of interest provisions. Overall, the solicitation calls for specialized legal services to facilitate compliant, tax-advantaged financing solutions supporting affordable housing initiatives in Ohio.
