     (b)  The amount of the tax credit under this section shall be       per cent of the rent received for units in qualifying rental property developments and shall be deductible from the taxpayer's net income tax liability, if any, imposed by this chapter for the taxable year in which the credit is properly claimed on a timely basis.  A credit under this section may be claimed whether or not the taxpayer claims a federal low-income housing tax credit pursuant to section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code.

     (c)  A qualifying rental property development shall:

     (1)  Be comprised of affordable housing; and

     (2)  Prioritize veteran tenants for at least       per cent of units.
