It's almost certainly a portion of your base salary, not an additional 15% on top. Think of it like this: your total compensation is made up of core pay (at least 85%) and a rental assistance component (up to 15%). They're splitting your salary, not adding to it. Check your payslip to confirm – the rental assistance shouldn't be listed as a separate item, but rather factored into your gross pay. If it's a separate line item, that might suggest it is additional, but I'd bet against it based on your description.
