RECOMMENDED ACTION: ADOPT proposed Program Guidelines for the Rental Rehabilitation Program, dated 9/87, as recommended by the Advisory Housing Commission. II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None. III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND: The Housing Authority has operated a very successful rental rehabilitation loan program since 1984 using CDBG funds and HUD Rental Rehabilitation funds providing loan subsidies to rehabilitate substandard rental units. Two loan packages have been used to implement these subsidies, a deferred/matching funds loan and an interest subsidy loan through a commercial lender. Many units have been rehabilitated under these loan packages; however, in order to improve the program we are proposing new loan packages to replace the existing ones. These guidelines were adopted by the County' s Housing & Community Development Advisory Committee on October 28, 1987. We believe the changes proposed will enhance an already successful program and help use funds allocated for the intended purpose--rehabilitation of substandard ren- tal units. They provide a greater subsidy to investors but will result in better program performance, more units rehabilitated and more lower income families assisted. At its Regular Meeting on November 16, 1987, the Advisory Housing Commission voted to adopt the Program Guidelines for the Rental Rehabilitation Program, dated 9/87, as presented by Staff, IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Should the Board of Commissioners elect to not adopt the proposed Program Guidelines for the Rental Rehabilitation Program, fewer rehabilitated rental units would be available for low income families requiring assistance, and program perfor- mance could be curtailed.
