LEGISLATIVE CONTEXT
The Town Council serves as the board of the Town's Public Housing Authority (PHA), which oversees the Town's public housing program.
A PHA board is responsible for overseeing the overall operations and governance of a local housing authority, including setting policies, approving budgets, and ensuring compliance with regulations.
BACKGROUND AND CONTEXT
* The Council has held two required public hearings prior to this meeting (March 29 and April 2, 2025); significant amendments from the public hearings are included in the annual plan/five-year plan prior to HUD submission.
* HUD requires Council approval to signify that the Town will abide by the Annual Contributions Contract (ACC) for receiving operating and capital funding.
* Submitting approved annual plans by April 17, 2025, is part of the ACC.
* For Fiscal Year 2026, we plan to continue installing new appliances, renovating vacant and occupied units to modern standards, and build stronger ties with our residents through increased recreational, educational activities
* For the next five years, we will continue to preserve our aging housing units, and spend available Capital Funds to address major issues such as flooring, siding and HVAC. We also plan to increase resident engagement by establishing self-sufficiency programming through strategic community partnerships.
