Authority to include in the strategic plan the recommended programs and

accompanying recommended budget allocations for the $14,356,803

allocations should include, but not be limited to, integrating a set-aside for UAs

in the upcoming Notice of Funding Availability or into a new solicitation to

develop and/or preserve affordable housing focused on UAs.

In creating this plan, Los Angeles County Development Authority should

needs of the constituencies across the County’s UAs. This includes, but

is not limited to, multifamily units, permanent supportive housing,

extending affordability covenants, acquisition and rehabilitation of

UAs.

Allocation.” Departments should request these positions through the County’s

budget cycle and report back to the Board in writing in 60 days detailing how

UAs.

Services Unit, to work in coordination with the Executive Director of the Los

Angeles County Development Authority, the Directors of Consumer and

Business Affairs, and Homeless Services and Housing, to develop an analysis

of formula options for the aforementioned LACAHSA UA PPO, PPO Flexible,

and RPHP funds to be distributed to each Supervisorial District and report back

to the Board in writing within 30 days on the implications of adopting those

formula options. The formula options should include a base amount for each

Supervisorial District and utilize key data points such as Regional Housing

Needs Allocation numbers, expiring covenants of affordable housing, and

ownership rates. The Chief Executive Officer through the Municipal

Unincorporated Area Services Unit and respective Departments’ analysis

should review the Measure A Local Solutions Fund proposed formulas, as well

as the County’s Unincorporated Utility Tax formula, to inform the LACAHSA UA

formula options and recommendations. (25-5070)
