1. The Agency finds and determines that expenditure of Housing Fund revenues
for rental subsidies to eligible, very low income persons and families as defined by Section
50105 of the California Health and Safety Code residing in mobilehome parks as contemplated
by the Program shall directly and specifically benefit and protect the community's supply of
low and moderate income housing, particularly the supply of mobilehomes, available at
affordable housing cost to persons and families of low and moderate income, reducing the
housing costs otherwise paid by very low income mobilehome residents, all within the
meaning of Section 33334.2 of the California Health and Safety Code.
2. The Agency finds and determines that the commitment and expenditure of
Housing fund monies to pay for rental assistance pursuant to the Program, is specifically
authorized by subsections (8) and (10) of California Health and Safety Code Section
33234.1(3) and further that such assistance is not classified as new construction or substantial
rehabilitation and is therefore not subject to the requirements of Section 33334.2(e) of the
California Health and Safety Code.
3. The Agency hereby finds that the expenditure of Housing Fund revenues from
the Project Area(s) to fund the Program will be of benefit to the Project(s).
4. Based on the above findings and determinations, the Agency hereby confirms
and renews for an additional one year, the Mobilehome Park Rental Assistance Program as
described in Exhibit "A" hereto and incorporated herein by reference and further directs and
authorizes staff to implement the Program as described therein.
5. The Agency authorizes and directs the Executive Director and the Finance
Director to provide Agency Housing Fund revenues in the amount of One hundred seventy
thousand dollars ($170,000) to fund the Program for an additional one year period with
subsequent review and possible renewal at the end of said period. It is the Agency's intent that
such appropriation shall be made from the Agency's Southwest and Northwest Housing
Set-Aside Fund(s)
proportionately.ADOPTED this 13th day of December
1994.
