Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: Alvin Nash, Housing and Community Development Director Kelly Larson, Human Rights Director Crenna Brumwell, Assistant City Attorney Laura Carstens, Planning Services Manager Erica Haugen, Community Development Specialist SUBJECT: Follow-Up Information — 11/28/16 Source of Income Statistics DATE: January 31, 2017 Introduction This memorandum transmits the follow-up information requested for two statistics in the Source of Income Committee report presented at the City Council work session on November 28, 2016. Both statistics were part of the PowerPoint presentation to the City Council. Discussion In December, 2014, the City Council formed a Source of Income Committee to conduct a two- year study and then report their findings and options. At the work session, the Source of Income Committee transmitted a report on their two-year study with six preliminary recommendations. Follow-up clarification was requested for two statistics presented at the work session. An explanation is provided below each, and materials are enclosed. Statistic #1. Attachment A is a copy of the spreadsheet the Housing & Community Development staff used to determine this statistic: A point in time analysis by the Housing Department in 2015 indicated that approximately 17% (242) of 1,439 housing providers in the community were accepting Housing Choice Vouchers at the time. The 17% represents the number of landlords participating at a point in time -- March 16, 2015. At that time, there were 242 landlords participating in the Section 8 program. There were 1,439 licensed landlords (this is an unduplicated count kept by the Housing & Community Development staff). This statistic was collected as an informational item for the Source of Income Committee and the community dialogues. Calculation formula: 242 / 1,439 = 16.817 (rounded to 17%). Statistic #2. Attachment B is a copy of Handout 1 found in Appendix B of the Source of Income Community Dialogues Report. These charts were developed to inform the Source of Income Committee and the community dialogues. The third chart describing the number of households meeting the Housing Choice Voucher income limits and experiencing additional housing problems and its explanatory text were included in the November 281" Source of Income presentation as follows, with inaccurate calculations shown in red text: The chart on the right shows the housing quality problems experienced by 244(9%) renters whose incomes are 50% HUD Area Median Family Income or less. In Dubuque, there are: ' 175(71%) rental units that lack Housing Quality Problems<51%HAM FI complete plumbing or kitchen facilities, ' 55(23%) rental units that are severely overcrowded, defined as>than 1.51 people per room, and ' 14(6%) rental units that are overcrowded, defined as 1.01-1.5 people/room. Attachment C is a copy of the table the Housing & Community Development staff used to determine this calculation, with the data highlighted in yellow. It is one of the Housing Needs Summary Tables in the City's adopted FY2016-2020 Consolidated Plan, found on pages 36-37. The chart below uses the data in Attachment C to show how the statistic above was calculated. Housing Needs: Renters Eligible for Housing Choice Vouchers Type of Household 0-30% AMI >30-50% AMI Number Percent percent Lacks complete plumbing or kitchen 90 85 175 72% Severely Overcrowded >1.51/room 25 30 55 23% Overcrowded 1.01-1.5/room 10 4 14 6% Subtotal: Housing Problems 125 119 8% Housing cost burden >50% 1,225 330 1,555 Housing cost burden >30% 365 685 1,050 Housing cost burden >50% 90 0 90 Subtotal: Cost burden 1,680 1,015 2,695 92% Total 1,805 1,134 2,939 100% There were two inaccurate calculations made in presenting this statistic at the work session. The 244 renters represent 8% (not 9%) of the 2,939 total renters in Dubuque whose incomes are at or below 50% HAMFI. The 175 renters in this income range who live in rental units that lack complete plumbing or kitchen facilities represent 72% (not 71%) of those 244 renters. The data source for this Housing Needs Summary Table found in the City's Consolidated Plan is the 2007-2011 "CHAS" data (Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy). 2 What is the Consolidated Plan? The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires communities who receive Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to complete a five-year Consolidated Plan that identifies general areas of need in the community and how to address them, particularly in the areas of housing, economic opportunity, and community development. The Housing and Community Development Department is responsible for the development and administration of the Consolidated Plan. The Community Development Advisory Commission uses it for the planning, implementation, review, and assessment of the CDBG program. The plan is available on the City website at http://www.cityofdubugue.org/831/Consolidated-Plan. What is "CHAS" data? Each year, HUD receives custom tabulations of American Community Survey (ACS) data from the U.S. Census Bureau. These data, known as the "CHAS" data (Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy), demonstrate the extent of housing problems and housing needs, particularly for low income households. The CHAS data are used by local governments to plan how to spend HUD funds. More information can be found on the HUD User website at https://www.huduser.qov/portaI/datasets/cp.html. Requested Action The requested action is to provide this follow-up clarification to the November 28, 2016 Source of Income work session to the City Council as requested.

The first column in this chart shows that there are 3,465 families in our community earning between 31- 50%of AMFI (orange band) and 2,585 earning less than 30%AFMI (blue band), or a total of 6,050 families. The second column shows that there are 610 units affordable for those earning less than 30%AMFI (blue band) and 4,450 units affordable for those earning between 31-50%AFMI (orange band). Of course, those earning 30-50%AMFI may also choose to live in the 610 lower cost units. If our goal is to keep families in affordable housing(meaning housing that does not exceed 30%of their income), then there is a shortage of 1,975 units for the very lowest earning households in Dubuque. 26 Number of Households Meeting the Housing Choice Voucher Income Limits who are Cost-Burdened Household Cost Burden 0 ■Households earning 0-30% HAMFI ■Households earning 30-50% HAMFI 1698 46 Source:2015 Consolidated Plan This chart shows the number of families earning less than 51% HAMFI and renting units in Dubuque who are cost-burdened, meaning that they are spending more than 30%of their income on their rental housing costs. 27 Number of Households Meeting the Housing Choice Voucher Income Limits and Experiencing Additional Housing Problems Housing Quality Problems <51% HAMFI 14 55 ■Lacking complete plumbing or kitchen ■Severely overcrowded ■Overcrowded Source:2015 Consolidated Plan This chart shows some of the housing problems experienced by renters whose incomes are 50% HAMFI or less.
