The city of Boston’s Neighborhood Housing Trust Fund is contributing $69 million to 14 mostly-affordable developments across the city this year, Mayor Michelle Wu announced Friday.

The fund is filled by developers’ payments under the city’s affordable housing and “linkage” development impact fees, along with a mix of federal grants and Community Preservation Act dollars.

“These housing grants will strengthen our communities, enhance affordability, and continue to establish Boston as a home for current residents, families, and future generations. Thank you to the Neighborhood Housing Trust and the Community Preservation Committee for their partnership as we continue our efforts to build a Boston that is home for everyone,” Wu said in a statement.

The 14 developments were picked from a list of 24 submissions that had sought a total of $115 million, Wu’s office said. The winners were picked based on the city’s assesment of the development team’s ability to build, their project’s financial feasibility, the inclusion of women and people of color on the development team, community support and “market need,” the city said. In addition, buildings were required to follow the city’s new Zero Emissions Building requirements.

“Today’s funding will create 775 affordable homes for residents across the city. These developments are designed to offer residents stable and economically viable housing options and will assist us to meet our climate and equity goals,” Boston Chief of Housing Sheila Dillon said in a statement. “These funding awards will support the creation of rental, homeownership and supportive housing developments, catering to the diverse needs of the community.”

In addition to the 775 affordable units, around 50 market-rate units are included in the 14 winning projects:
