Date: February 28, 2019 Committee Agenda Date: March 18, 2019 To: Honorable Chair and Members of the Board of Commissioners Executive Committee From: Alfred Dulay, Executive Director Subject: Agenda Item 4B: Resolution 2019-03-18-B: Resolution Adopting Revisions to LHA Housing

Choice Voucher Administrative Plan RECOMMENDATION Approve Resolution adopting revisions to the Housing Choice Voucher Administrative Plan. BACKGROUND The public housing agency (PHA) must adopt a written Administrative Plan that establishes local policies for Voucher program administration. The plan is a formal document which communicates to all interested parties the policy choices the local agency has made where federal regulations or law does not direct the PHA’s actions or decisions. The plan must conform with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) regulations and state the PHA’s policy in those areas where the PHA has discretion to establish local policy. From time to time, HUD amends these regulations and adds new Administrative Plan requirements. The PHA is responsible for updating its Administrative Plan to include these additional elements as required. The PHA must also revise its plan whenever local circumstances require a policy change. The Housing Authority Board of Commissioners must formally adopt the Administrative Plan and any revisions. The Administrative Plan becomes the PHA’s “official” policy when it is approved by the Board through a resolution (see Attachment 1). HUD must receive a copy of the plan, and may require changes if the policies adopted are inconsistent with program regulation requirements. However, HUD approval of the Administrative Plan is not required prior to its implementation. DISCUSSION The Livermore Housing Authority (LHA) desires to revise its current Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program Administrative Plan. The proposed Administrative Plan is necessary to update LHA’s policies based on current HUD regulations and local circumstances that require a policy change. A summary of key policy changes was introduced at the February 13th Regular Meeting (see Attachment 2). The 30-day public comment period was held from January 24, 2019 through February 24, 2019, during which the draft Administrative Plan was available for public review. To the greatest extent possible, fundamental program principles in the comments and recommendations received on the plan were incorporated into the final draft. The revised Administrative Plan will be effective March 18, 2019. FISCAL IMPACT None.

From: Alfred Dulay, Executive Director

Subject: Agenda Item 4C: Resolution 2019-03-18-C: Resolution Authorizing the Executive Director to Execute the Inter-Governmental Collaboration Agreement for the Completion of the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) for Participating County, Cities and Agencies

RECOMMENDATION

Approve Resolution authorizing the Executive Director to execute the Inter-Governmental Collaboration Agreement for the Completion of the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) for Participating County, Cities and Agencies.

BACKGROUND

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Final Rule ("AFFH") requires jurisdictions to submit a fair housing assessment document that requires significant administrative efforts, and that HUD encourages regional and multi-jurisdictional submissions.

The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI), is a tool which HUD-funded program participants must prepare and use to identify and evaluate fair housing issues, and factors contributing to fair housing issues in their defined geographic area. The AI encourages and provides methodology for regional approaches to address fair housing issues, including collaboration across jurisdictions and public housing agencies.

The County of Alameda, the City of Alameda, the City of Berkeley, the City of Fremont, the City of Hayward, the City of Livermore, the City of Oakland, the City of Pleasanton, the City of San Leandro, the City of Union City, the Housing Authority of the County of Alameda, the Housing Authority of the City of Alameda, the Berkeley Housing Authority, the Housing Authority of the City of Livermore, and the Housing Authority of the City of Oakland, hereinafter referred to as the Participating County, Cities and Agencies ("PCCA") and individually as "PCCA member(s)”, agreed to collaborate regarding the completion of the AI.

DISCUSSION

All PCCA members have one or more HUD-funded programs and activities that require compliance with the AI and recognize that the AI is a comprehensive review of their respective laws, regulations, administrative policies, procedures and practices. On behalf of all PCCA members, the County of Alameda (the "County”) facilitated the competitive procurement and management of the consultant who will assist the PCCA with development of the AI plan and will assume the role of lead for the PCCA regional effort.

All PCCA members recognize the efficiency of coordinating efforts to complete the AI by the HUD prescribed deadline for the County. The County's deadline for submission of the AI is December 31, 2019.
