RECOMMENDATIONS

RECEIVE the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa’s public housing rolling annual occupancy report for the period ending July 31, 2016.

BACKGROUND

Attached are the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa’s (HACCC's) rolling annual public housing occupancy report for the period ending July 31, 2016, and the accompanying leasing trend report for the same period. The occupancy report shows the percentage of each individual property that is leased at the end of a given month. These are then subtotaled separately for all properties except North Richmond and for North Richmond alone before being combined to show HACCC's overall occupancy percentage. North Richmond is shown separately because staff is in the process of applying to HUD to remove that property from HACCC's public housing portfolio. The trend report shows the sum of the number of new leases signed in a given month minus the number of new vacancies. A positive number shows that the occupancy rate increased during that period, a negative number indicates a decline.

BACKGROUND (CONT'D)

For reference, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) annually evaluates a public housing authority’s (PHA) management of its public housing program using four indicators, referred to collectively as the Public Housing Assessment System (PHAS). The management operations indicator is worth 25 points. Of these 25 points, the occupancy rate sub-indicator is worth 16 points. Occupancy points are assigned as follows:

≥98%	16 Points
< 98% but ≥ 96%	12 Points
< 96% but ≥ 94%	8 Points
< 94% but ≥ 92%	4 Points
< 92% but ≥ 90%	1 Point
< 90%	0 Points

HUD considers a PHAs entire portfolio when assigning points for the occupancy sub-indicator.
