CDmlr..h--ive HOlUliD.l! Affordabili" StrateRY
The followina summary will provide information regardina the
Comprehensive HouBina Affordability Strateay (CRAS), which is required
by the U.S. Department of Housina and Urban Development (BUD) if a city
wishea to apply for Federal entitlement program monies. The
regulations require that the CRAS be ready for review by August 31,
1991 to meet the citizen participation requirements for a sixty (60)
day comment period prior to final submission on October 31; 1991.
Bark_round
Title I of the Rational Affordable Housina Act requires that, in order
to apply for certain BUD programs, state and local governments must
have an approved Comprehensive Housina Affordability Strateay (CRAS).
The CRAS replaces the two (2) pre-existina housina documents used by
HUD grantees, the Housina Assistance Plan (RAP) for the Community
Development Block Grant Prolram (CDBG) and the Comprehensive Homeless
Assistance Plan (CRAP) for the McKinney Act programs. Preparation of
the document requires three CRAS sections, the Community Profile, the
Five-Year Strategy, and the One-Year Plan.
The Communitv Profile includes two parts: an assessment of housing
needs and a survey of market and inventory conditions. The needs
assessment provides a picture of the housing needs of income-eligible
families, the homeless and others with special needs. The market and
inventory analysis summarizes the characteristics of each group, as
well as projected trends in popUlation, household formation, and
available private and public housina.
The Five Year Strateav presents priorities for the investment of
private and public funds in housina -- both rental and homeowner and
services based on the needs identified in the community profile.
The One Year Plan presents the resources available to support the
current year of the five-year strategy, as well as the specific
implementation plans and numerical goals for assistina income-eligible
families, the homeless, and others with special needs. The one year
plan is updated annually.
The CRAS Document
Although the CRAS will incorporate components of the RAP and the CHAP,
the intent of the legislation is to encourage grantees to create a

need-based, rather than a resource-based, housina strategy. The CRAS
provides an action-oriented management tool for states and local
governments to identify housina needs and to specify the resources and
programs that may be used to address specific housina needs.
Furthermore, in order for a city to be eligible to apply for Federal
entitlement program monies, such as the CDBG program, grantees must
have a BUD-approved CHAS in place prior to submission and consideration
of an application for FY 1992 funds.
Ma10r Benefits for Local Gove..........ts to Prenare a CHAS
The two (2) major benefits for local governments to prepare a CRAS is
(i) to identify a sinale plannina document for housina while developina
a housina strategy for the city and (ii) to allow a local government to
effectively review its goals and resources for a five year time
period. The goals will allow the city to identify ita highest
priorities in housina that should result in the achievement of positive
housina accomplishments. In addition. local jurisdictions are required
to coordinate with atate governments to facilitate consistency in the
preparation of the state CRAS.
Citizen Particination Process
The rsgulations specify that the CRAS must be ready for review by
August 31, 1991 to meet the citizen partiCipation requirements for
community input durina the entire developmental process, as well as a
sixty (60) day public comment period prior to the final submission
date. Additionally, this will allow the City to meet the deadline of
October 31, 1991. Penalty for late submission is potential delay in
fundina. not loss of money.
Data Collection .nd Community Innut
Staff has already begun preparation and writina of the CRAS through the
formation of an interdepartmental task force which will gather the data
and the selection of a Citizens Advisory Committee to provide for
citizen participation and community input throughout the process. The
initial draft of the CRAS will be completed by August 31, 1991 and
presented to the Citizen's Advisory Committee for review on
September 2. 1991. Staff will provide periOdic status reports prior to
the October 31. 1991 submission date.

was subsequently requested by Commission Member Pope-Ludlam that the
CRAS be resubmitted to the Housing Committee at its meeting scheduled
