Port Hueneme Housing Authority adopts 2025–2029 five‑year agency and capital plans
Summary
The Housing Authority adopted its required five‑year public housing agency plan and five‑year Capital Fund Action Plan after a 45‑day comment period; staff said HUD software updates and ACOP and voucher plan changes require implementation by July 1.
The Port Hueneme Housing Authority adopted a resolution on May 5 approving its 2025–2029 Public Housing Agency (PHA) Five‑Year Plan and the associated Capital Fund Five‑Year Action Plan.
Housing authority staff explained that all public housing agencies are required to review and update their five‑year plans after a 45‑day public comment period. Staff said the principal changes this cycle relate to updates to the Agency’s Admission and Continued Occupancy Policy (ACOP) and the Housing Choice Voucher Administrative Plan; implementation requires HUD’s vendor software to be updated and staff expects to transition to the new regulations by July 1, 2025. The capital plan includes programming approximately $227,000 per year in capital projects over five years — "which ends up totaling over a million dollars," staff said.
Staff presented the plan during a noticed public hearing and reported no public comments were received on the plan. Board members asked questions about visible maintenance needs at authority properties; a member noted longstanding carpet and interior repairs and asked when replacements could occur. Staff replied the five‑year capital program includes funding for those types of projects.
The board moved to adopt the resolution approving the 2025–2029 Agency Plan and Capital Fund Action Plan; the roll‑call vote was unanimous among those present with Member Blackwell absent. Staff said the plan will be implemented in coordination with HUD when the necessary software updates are available.
Ending: the Housing Authority adjourned and will next meet on its regular schedule. The adoption ensures the authority meets HUD public notice and plan requirements and programs the capital funds for the next five years.
