RESOLUTION NO. 3416
URGING AGAINST THE PROPOSED HUD REVISION OF THE
SECTION 8 EXISTING HOUSING PROGRAM ADMINISTRATIVE FEE STRUCTURE
WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners of the Housing Authority of the County
of Contra Costa and the Advisory Housing Commission of the Housing
Authority of the County of Contra Costa are mandated to provide
decent, safe and sanitary housing for low and moderate income
families in Contra Costa County; and,
WHEREAS, the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa currently
assists 3406 families under the Section 8 Existing Housing
Program; and,
WHEREAS, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development is proposing
a change in the administrative fee structure by issuing a HUD
Handbook revision which would reduce the administrative fee from
8.5 percent to 6 percent of the Fair Market Rent for a two bedroom
unit; and,
WHEREAS, this proposed administrative fee revision would result in a net
funding loss of $266,963 per year or a loss of 16.78% of the admi-
nistrative fee earned by the Housing Authority; and,
WHEREAS, this funding loss of $266,963 would have a substantial negative
impact on the Housing Authority's ability to administer the
Section 8 Existing Housing Program in an effective manner and
reduce our ability to provide housing-related services for low and
moderate income families:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners of the
Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa and the Advisory
Housing Commission of the Housing Authority of the County of
Contra Costa urge that that the proposed HUD revision of the
Section 8 Existing Housing Program administrative fee structure
not be implemented and that a Congressional inquiry on this sub-
ject be initiated.
