About this fund
Fund 1856 (formerly Fund 133) is funded by a 0.10% sales tax authorized by RCW 82.14.530 for housing, mental and behavioral-health facilities, and related services. Affordable housing and facilities provided by this funding must serve populations specified in the RCW. The affordable housing developed with these funds must be available to those at 60% Area Median Income or below, with a particular focus on veterans, seniors, families with children, people with disabilities, and survivors of domestic violence.
Distinct from Bellingham Fund 182 (RCW 82.14.530 city portion) — Whatcom imposes a county-wide 0.10% under the same statute; both stack in city limits.
