Download HereWhy the Plan is Necessary
The platform for public housing across the nation is shifting away from traditional programs. Federal funding for public housing authorities has been steadily declining over the past decade, while the capital needs of aging housing inventories accumulate and the demand for affordable housing grows. Programs like the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) and other initiatives have been implemented to address this imbalance and leverage the funding necessary to preserve deeply affordable housing. Within the next few years, over one-third of HABC's public housing portfolio will be converted to private ownership through RAD. The time is right to for HABC to perform a careful evaluation of our assets and organizational structure to determine our path going forward.
How the Plan was Developed
HABC engaged EJP, an experienced industry consulting team, to assist in creating the strategic plan in 2018. The process included input from many stakeholders - HABC staff and Board of Commissioners, residents and program participants, City agencies and elected officials, community and advocacy groups, anchor institutions, philanthropic organizations, for- and nonprofit developers, etc. A series of focus groups, committee meetings and public meetings were held, and a final plan was adopted by the Board of Commissioners on September 17, 2019.
