Agenda Item: Approval of 5-Year Agency Plan – Resolution No. 19-3327
Action to be considered: Hold a public hearing, and following public hearing make a motion to
adopt Resolution 19-3327 approving the 5-Year Agency Plan.
Overview:
In our capacity as a Public Housing Agency, every five years we are required to prepare a 5-Year
Agency Plan, make the plan available to the public for at least 45 days, and hold a public hearing
prior to submitting the approved plan to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) for approval. The 5-Year Plan serves as a guide to a Public Housing
Agency’s carrying out its mission of providing affordable public housing programs in its
community. In our case, this plan includes goals, objectives, and actions with regard to the
Public Housing and Capital Fund programs.
The draft 5-year plan was discussed with a resident advisory board consisting of residents from
the John Carroll and Nan McKay buildings on September 11, 2019. A summary of comments is
included in the packet, and will be included with our submittal to HUD.
Source of Funds: The Public Housing Budget is supported primarily by rental income from the
units in the John Carroll and Nan McKay buildings and the annual operating subsidy from HUD.
We also receive a Capital Fund allocation in each fiscal year for major capital repairs at the
properties.

HRA Executive Director: ____________
Agenda Item: Approval of 2020 Public Housing Budget – Resolution No. 19-3328
Action to be considered: Motion to adopt Resolution 19-3328 approving the 2020 Public
Housing Budget.
Overview:
In our capacity as a Public Housing Agency, each year we are required to prepare an Annual
Budget and submit this to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for
approval. The 2020 budget is enclosed for the board’s review and approval.
2020 budgeted operating income totaling $1,986,850 is anticipated from the following sources:
• Rental income $1,140,020
• Operating Subsidy $760,000
• Excess Utilities (air conditioner surcharge) $17,690
• Other Income (washer/dryer income, keys, misc) $69,145
2020 budgeted operating expenses of $1,784,150 are estimated and include:
• Administrative Expenses $392,500
• Maintenance and Operation (Contracts) $851,520
• Utilities $286,970
• Payment in lieu of Tax $90,010
• Other Expenses $163,150
Residual receipts are budgeted to be approximately $202,720 for 2020.
Given the currently unsettled property management situation, this budget represents a reasonable
estimate based upon a relatively consistent operating budget for the agency for a number of
years. As always, our Operating Subsidy from HUD is to be determined and may vary from our
budget. That said, the properties remain leased up with consistent rent collection and revenues,
and we anticipate that to remain the case.
Source of Funds: The Public Housing Budget is supported primarily by rental income from the
units in the John Carroll and Nan McKay buildings and the annual operating subsidy from HUD.
