SR-HA-2 (11) .- e ~A -c:<. APR 9 ." "'II ~r;J CED/HD:SW:lc/acc/pc Housing Authority Meeting 04/09/91 Santa Monica, California TO: Housing Authority FROM: City staff SUBJECT: Resolution Approving Revised Section 8 Housing Certificate Annual contributions Contract . INTRODUCTION This report recommends that the Housing Authority take the following actions to receive new HUD funding for an expl.ring allocation of Section 8 rental assistance: (1) approve a resolution amending the Consolidated Annual contributions Contract (CACC) ; and (2 ) authorize the Executive Director of the Housing Authority to execute the CACC. BACKGROUND Like many other local Housing Authorities, the Santa Monica Housing Authority has been monitoring the issue of expiring section 8 contracts. These federal contracts, by their terms, all have scheduled expiration dates. Without additional funding to reneVl these expiring contracts, needed rental assistance subsidies would disappear. Fortunately, the current federal budget contains an appropriation to finance the renewal of section 8 contracts which are scheduled to expire this year. These renewals will enable low income households to continue to receive rental assistance with no l.nterruption of benefits. H A-~ r,........ r" ~:'il i~ <' . - . . DISCUSSION The Santa Monica Housing Authority currently administers a rental assistance program with funding for approximately 726 households, comprised of 559 certificates and 167 vouchers. The program total is made up of several different allocations, each of which has a different expiration date. The first of these allocations was put under contract on March 30, 1976. This allocation was for 90 certificates with a term of 15 years, expiring on March 29, 1991. HUD has invited the Santa Monica Housing Authority to renew this expiring allocation with new budget authority to support the continued participation of 90 eligible households. The new contract will have a term of five years. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACT Payments to Santa Monica Housing Authority's Section 8 program are budgeted in account number 12-700-695-00000-7734-00000. Current costs for both subsidy payments and earned administrative fees under this contract are approximately $480,000 annually. Since the Housing Authority's FY 1991-92 budget already provides for this anticipated renewal, approval of the contract will not require any budget action at this time. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Housing Authority adopt the attached resolution amending the Consol~dated Annual contributions Contract and authorize the Executive Director to execute the CACC. . e e Prepared by: Nancy West, Housing Program Manager steven Wagner, Housing Coordinator Department of Community and Economic Development Attachments: Resolution :acc -~ ." . . ~ RESOLUTION NO. 44 (HAS) (Bousinq Authority Series) A RESOLUTION OP THE HOUSING AUTHORITY OP T~~ CITY OP SANTA MONICA APPROVING AMENDED EXHIBIT II TO PART I OF SECTION 8 HOUSING CERTIPICATE PROGRAM CONSOLIDATED ANNUAL CONTRIBUTIONS CONTRACT NO SP-520 (E) AND AUTHORIZING EXECUTION WHEREAS, the Housing Authority of the City of Santa Monica (PHA) desires to enter into an amended part I of the Consolidated Annual contributions Contract (CACC) with the United states of America Government for the Section 8 Existing housing certificate program, and WHEREAS, part I of the section 8 Existing Housing Certificate CACC must now be revised so that it will consist of the following counterparts: (a) Part I of the CACC, HUD-52520B (8/88) applicable to the Section 8 Existing Housing Certificate Program, (b) Exhibit I, projects appropriated before Federal fiscal year 1988; (c) Exhibit II, projects appropriated in Federal fiscal year 1988 and later years adding replacement project no.
