RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution No. 3458 authorizing submission of an application for 43 additional Section 8 Housing Vouchers for use in the Rental Rehabilitation Grant Program for FY 1985 and authorizing the Executive Director to submit any additional information in support of the application which may be required by HUD. II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The Department of Housing and Urban Development has reserved contract authority in an amount sufficient to fund the additional 43 Section 8 Housing Vouchers which will include the Housing Authority's fees and housing assistance payments. III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND: On July 24, 1984, the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa was designated as the contractor to undertake the implementation of the Rehabilitation Grant Program for the County of Contra Costa. The Board adopted Resolution No. 3426 and an application for Section 8 Housing Vouchers was submitted to the Department of Housing and Urban Development on August 14, 1984. On April 30, 1985, under Resolution No. 3454, the Annual Contributions Contract, SF-468V, for the Section 8 Housing Voucher Program was executed. This Annual Contributions Contract covered the initial 15 Section 8 Housing Vouchers issued to the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa for use in the Rental Rehabilitation Grant Program. The Housing Authority has received an invitation to submit an application for 43 Section 8 Housing Vouchers to be used in support of the Rental Rehabilitation Grant Program. The application must be made within 30 days of the date of May 15, 1985 letter from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. We recommend that the Board adopt Resolution No. 3458 authorizing the submission of an application for 43 additional Section 8 Housing Vouchers for use in the Rental Rehabilitation Grant Program and authorizing the Executive Director to submit any additional information in support of the application, as required by HUD. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Should the Board of Commissioners elect to not adopt Resolution No. 3458, the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development would withdraw their reservation of 43 Section 8 Housing Voucher for use in the Rental Rehabilitation Grant Program and the Housing Authority would lose the use of the rental assistance funds being made .available in the contract authority.
