B. Fiscal year 2008 Capital Fund Program Annual Statement and 5-Year (see separate attachment ca007a01). C. Brief Statement of Progress in Meeting 5 Year Plan Mission and Goals The Sacramento City Housing Authority is in the fourth year of the 5-Year portion of the PHA Plan for fiscal years 2005-2009. The focus for Public Housing has been and will continue to be the improvement of PHAS scores with particular emphasis on the physical indicator and unit turn- around time. One of the continuing strategic goals has been and will be to improve our residents’ quality of life by focusing on increased public housing security and safety. We have made security gate improvements and have begun the process of installing new card key systems and security cameras in many on many of our properties. Another Housing Authority strategic goal has been and will continue to be promoting self-sufficiency among our assisted residents. Our resident training program involves training in painting, janitorial and clerical disciplines. Many of the graduates of these programs have gone on to acquire full time employment in these fields. The focus for the Housing Choice Voucher Program will be to continue to provide safe, decent and affordable housing in the most efficient way possible D. Description of the PHA’s Pet Policy The PHA adopted a pet policy which allows residents to have pets, provided that they request permission to keep a pet in advance, sign a Pet Policy/Agreement and agree to paying a pet deposit. The pet policy covers common household pets such as dogs, cats, fish, birds, rabbits, and rodents. Residents may have up to two pets, but only one dog. Dogs are limited to a maximum adult weight of 25 pounds and must be housebroken. Dogs and cats must be spayed or neutered and must have a health certificate prepared by a veterinarian. For accommodation purposes parts of the pet policy (including pet deposit) do not apply to animals that are needed as a reasonable accommodation for persons with disabilities. The Pet Policy is included with the Admissions and Continued Occupancy Policy. E.

Public Comments This section will be completed after the Public Review Process is complete. H. Resident Membership of the PHA Governing Board The Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Commission acts as the governing body for the Sacramento City and County Housing Authorities. Members of the Housing and Redevelopment Commission are appointed to serve four-year terms. Because the Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency is a joint powers authority, six Commission members are appointed by the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors and five members are appointed by the Sacramento City Council. Resident Commissioners are Julius Piatkowski and James Hoag. I. Community Service and Self-Sufficiency Requirements At the time the family prepares to move in to a public housing unit, the lease requirement to perform community service will be explained. All adult family members who are not exempt from this requirement will be given a “Community Service and Self-Sufficiency Resource Form” listing the phone numbers of the local Volunteer Bureau and sites where they can receive job training. Family members will be encouraged to contact these agencies if they need assistance finding places where they can fulfill this requirement. No exempt adult residents will be given the appropriate form so that a representative from the organization can sign, verifying that the resident family member completed their service hours. Families will be reminded that they need to provide this form at the time of their annual recertification. They must show that all family members contributed eight (8) hours of community service or participated in an economic self-sufficiency program for at least a minimum of thirty (30) hours a week. If all family members are not compliant with this requirement at the annual recertification, the non-compliant family member and head of household will be asked to sign an agreement committing to make up these hours, plus any additional hours they incur, and to provide documentation of such. If the non- compliant family member and head of household refuse to sign this agreement, the family will be given notice that they are not complying with the terms of their leas and they may lose their housing assistance. The community service requirement will be waived for a family member when he/she becomes employed at least 30 hours per week. The ACOP includes a full chapter (Chapter15) to further explain the PHA policy on the community service requirement. J. HCV Homeownership Program Capacity Statement At this time the HCV Homeownership Program is not pulling from its wait pool due to a lack of funding.
