HCHA April 9, 2019 <br /> Voucher Program. We did a five year plan in 2015 it will expire in 2020. And each <br /> year we have to submit a annual plan and this is what we have today. Its a <br /> Office of Housing Community Development Public Housing Plan for the Fiscal <br /> Year beginning July 1 , 2019 and I request that the Housing Agency approve the <br /> PHA Plan for the Office of Housing and Community Development. <br /> Eoff: Okay. Thank you and Councilmembers would you like to discuss or have <br /> any questions for Mr. Gyotoku? Okay...oh I'd just like to thank you for meeting <br /> with us prior so that we all had a heads up on... <br /> Gyotoku: You're welcome. <br /> Eoff: ....this. So all in favor of...l'm not sure if we file this orjust...move on? <br /> Gyotoku: Its just a request to approve it and we will be filing it with the <br /> Department of Housing and Urban Development...after approval. <br /> Eoff: Okay, then all in favor of approving the PHA Plan for the Office of Housing <br /> and Community Development for fiscal year beginning July 1 , 2019 say aye. <br /> All said aye. <br /> Eoff: any opposed? Okay, we have nine ayes. Motion carries. And the next order <br /> of business is a presentation and this will be an Overview of the Housing and <br /> Community Development projects and programs. So I see you have your power <br /> point up and ready to go. <br /> Gyotoku: I do have the power point...l've kinda sat down with most of <br /> everybody to discuss this presentation. I'll just go briefly and summarize some of <br /> the high points and then open it up for any questions that you may have. <br /> Under the Office of Housing and Community Development our basic purpose is <br /> to provide housing assistance to low income families, plan and develop <br /> community friendly housing projects and be responsible for federal grants that <br /> help benefit low and moderate persons. <br /> We have two offices, one is 1990 Kino`ole which we just recently moved out of <br /> the 50 Wailuku Drive, the Hilo Armory, after 41 + years. We also have a office...a <br /> smaller office in the West Hawaii Comm...Civic Center, in Kona. Total wise, we <br /> have 51 full time positions in the Office of Housing and I may note that <br /> under...were the only agency, sub-department in the County that is not civil <br /> service, so all of our positions are exempt and basically we survive on federal <br /> funds. <br /> Page 4 of 22 <br />
