A RESOLUTION OF THE HOUSING
AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA
APPROVING THE ANNUAL PLAN AND
REVISION OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE PLAN
FOR FISCAL YEAR 2012-2013
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MEMBERS OF THE HOUSING AUTHORITY OF THE CITY
OF SANTA ANA, AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The Housing Authority of the City of Santa Ana conclusively finds, determines
and declares as follows:
A. The Housing Authority of the City of Santa Ana (the "Authority") is required
by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") to have an Annual
Plan due to the fact that the Authority administers a Housing Choice Voucher ("HCV")
Rental Assistance Program.
B. The purpose of the Authority's Annual Plan is to advise HUD, program
participants and members of the public of its policies and procedures to serve the needs of
very low-income families.
C. The purpose of the Authority's Administrative Plan is to describe the
Authority's policies and procedures to implement the HCV program in Santa Ana.
D. The Annual Plan provides information about the current operations of
the Authority including programs, participants, services for the upcoming year, and any
operational or tenant concerns. In January 2012, the Authority sent a customer service
survey to 1820 Santa Ana program participants. The survey was sent in English, Spanish
and Vietnamese. Over 700 responses to the survey were received and the results will be
submitted to HUD as part of the Annual Plan.
E. The Administrative Plan serves as supporting documentation for the Annual
Plan. The Authority's Administrative Plan was last adopted in January 2011. The
Administrative Plan must be revised to ensure compliance with regulatory changes made
by HUD and policy and procedure changes proposed by the Authority. Procedural
changes to streamline waiting list maintenance were made in preparation of opening the
waiting list. The changes regarding the waiting list include the following: removal of the
local preference for Santa Ana mobile home coach owners; removal of the local
preference for Victims of Domestic Violence; adding availability of on-line application
submission; and, at Authority's discretion, the use of a lottery system and limiting the
number of people on the waiting list to an amount that can be served in 2-3 years.
