Discussion The HUD Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998 contained a new requirement for public housing authorities to submit an annual and 5-year 'agency plan' (PHA Plan). The implementing rules have now been published and we are required to bring our program into compliance. In Dubuque, the 'public housing agency' is the Housing Services Department. In compliance with requirements ofthe Act, we have developed both the annual and 5-year plans, formed a resident advisory board (of Section 8 Program participants) to review it and held a public hearing at the Housing Commission. It is now ready for submission to HUD. The 5-year plan includes a statement of the Housing Department's mission for serving the needs oflower-income families, and quantifiable goals and objectives for achievement. The annual plan includes an assessment ofthe housing needs oflower-income families and of the needs of elderly, disabled and minority families; a statement of agency financial resources; a statement of the agency's policies governing family eligibility, selection, admissions, grievance procedures, and maintenance of a waiting list; information describing the agency's managing organization and staffing; a description of any homeownership programs administered by the agency; a description of the agency's collaborative efforts with other community agencies to promote economic self- sufficiency for program families, including the Family Self-Sufficiency Program; and a copy ofthe agency's most recent fiscal year audit. . Action Step The action requested of the City Council is to approve submission of the annual and 5-year agency plans; and to authorize the Mayor to execute the HUD-required certifications.
