Anaheim Civic Center, ANAHEIM HOUSING AUTHORITY

Authority Member Kaywood stated she would like more information on tying the
subsidy to the tenant and not the unit, thereby preventing the control or
restriction of rents they normally had for five years. She asked if this
meant that somebody was going to get a windfall, being the first renter.
Mr. Priest answered that it could. The Authority had participated in the
second round of the program which contained the same set of ground rules.
Recognizing where the Administration was going with its Housing Act, they felt
it appropriate to begin to operate in a similar direction. Under the Rental
Rehabilitation Program and under the new Housing Act, it was tied to the
tenant. There were also other provisions they did not like. There were no
means, and the City and Housing Authority were forbidden, directly or
indirectly, to control or restrict rents. The "Catch-22" being if the rent
moved above a certain accepted level by HUD standards, they could be penalized
in terms of the amount of money they could get for rental rehabilitation.
They had protested to HUD, but at this point in time, they were not prone to
changing their approach° He urged that they go forward relative to the
Certificate, because it was, in fact, the law and, further, they would like to
get as much experience with and maintain a good relationship with HUD in order
to continue to have the opportunity for housing in the City. They were not
happy, but that was what Congress had passed.
Authority Member Overholt entered the Council Chambers. (10:07 a.m.)
MOTION: After additional questions posed by Authority Members Kaywood and
Bay, Authority Member Roth moved to certify the Housing Authority's
willingness to continue participation in the third round of the Rental
Rehabilitation Program Demonstration, and authorize the Chairman to execute
the Certificate, as recommended by the Executive Director. Authority Member
Pickler seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
ADJOURNMENT: Authority Member Bay moved to adjourn. Authority Member Roth
seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED. (10:09 a.m.)
