MAJOR PROGRAM AREAS:

 

Housing Choice Voucher Programs

 

Program Description - The Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program and two related ones tracked in this budget item, provide housing assistance to families in the private rental market. HACCC qualifies families for these programs based on income. These families find a home in the private rental market on their own and HACCC provides them with a subsidy via a housing assistance payment (HAP) contract with the property owner. HAP (the subsidy) is paid by HACCC directly to the owner. Through these programs, HACCC provides affordable housing assistance to 9,546 households. Through the main HCV program, HACCC is approved to house as many as 9,589 households. However, due to rents that are rising faster than the provided grant from the federal government, HACCC houses 9,358 households in the HCV Program. Additionally, HACCC provides housing to 188 households in the Mainstream Voucher Program (targeted to non-elderly persons with disabilities). Of the HCV program households, 228 are also enrolled in the Family Self-Sufficiency Program. Non-operating revenues are primarily HAP funding from HUD. Non-operating activities primarily consist of HAP rental payments to property owners.

 

Summary of Budgeted and Actual results:

 

Operating Revenue - The $98,304 operating revenue difference is primarily a result of higher federal program administrative funding received in the period than budgeted.

 

Operating Expense - The $278,898 operating expense difference is primarily a result of lower administrative labor expense than budgeted due to vacant positions.

Public Housing Operating and Capital Funds

 

Program Description - HACCC owns and manages 983 public housing units at 13 different sites throughout the County. The Agency disposed of roughly 196 units on 3 sites in the N. Richmond area. The Operating funds for all properties come from tenant rents as well as an operating subsidy received from HUD that is designed to cover the gap between rents collected from the low-income tenants and annual operating expenses. HUD allocates the Capital Fund annually via formula to approximately 3,200 housing authorities. Capital Fund grants may be used for development, financing, modernization, and management improvements within public housing. Non-operating activities primarily consist of these capital additions.

 

Summary of Budgeted and Actual results:

 

Operating Revenue - The $47,231 operating revenue difference is primarily a result of higher tenant rental revenue received than budgeted.

 

Operating Expense - The $24,055 operating expense difference is primarily a result of higher public housing dwelling and land maintenance costs than budgeted.

State and Local Programs

 

Program Description - HACCC administers a variety of programs and activities that are either not funded by HUD or that involve non-restricted HUD funds. Currently, HACCC is the managing general partner for two tax credit projects (DeAnza Gardens & Casa Del Rio).

Summary of Budgeted and Actual results:

 

Operating Revenue - The $88,774 difference in operating revenue is primarily the result of lower rental revenue earned by our tax credit properties than budgeted.

 

Operating Expense - The $293,877 difference in operating expense is primarily the result of lower administrative labor expense incurred by our Central Administration Office than budgeted.
