Approval of an Inter-Jurisdictional Mobility Memorandum of Agreement among the Orange County, Anaheim, Garden Grove, and Santa Ana Housing Authorities. (Action Item)

OBJECTIVE

To seek Housing Authority approval of the Inter-Jurisdictional Mobility Memorandum of Agreement ("MOA") among the Orange County, Anaheim, Garden Grove, and Santa Ana Housing Authorities.

BACKGROUND

The Garden Grove Housing Authority currently operates under an approved MOA with Anaheim and Orange County Housing Authorities, which allows Section 8 participants to move easily within the three jurisdictions with continued assistance. The current MOA was approved by the Garden Grove Housing Authority at their meeting held on November 27, 2012, and has been in effect since December 1, 2012. 

DISCUSSION

Once approved by all participating Housing Authorities, the revised MOA will be effective through April 30, 2022. The revision reflects new procedures and regulations that include:  Quality Control Inspections and Monitoring; Special Program Inspections; and Exchange of Records and Documents, and also adds the Santa Ana Housing Authority.   

FINANCIAL IMPACT

There is no financial impact to the General Fund. Fees will be paid by federal grants received from the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Housing Authority:

 

  • Approve the Inter-Jurisdictional Mobility Memorandum of Agreement among the Orange County, Anaheim, Garden Grove, and Santa Ana Housing Authorities; and 

 

  • Authorize the Director to execute the MOA, and any subsequent revisions or amendments on behalf of the Garden Grove Housing Authority.
