A minimum of 10% of the units must be affordable to, at most, a family at 80% AMI, with rents sized to be affordable at 30% of the income at that level. The affordability set-aside must be in effect for at least 30 years after final endorsement of the FHA-insured mortgage, be monitored by competent public authority, and be recorded in a regulatory agreement;
