RECOMMENDATIONS
ACCEPT report on the status of the Housing Authority's Rental Assistance Demonstration application to the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for Las Deltas in North Richmond.
BACKGROUND
If final approval is received from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Housing Authority’s (HACCC) Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) application would convert all 214 public housing units into RAD project-based voucher (PBV) units. The RAD PBV subsidy for these units is expected to be worth approximately $288 million over the next 30 years. Because of the current vacancy rate at Las Deltas, over half of this money will not be received from HUD if the RAD conversion is not completed.
