However, prior to the Housing Authority submitting its application to HUD, it must gain the approval of cooperating cities in anticipation of the allocation of Certificates within incorporated areas of the County. By regulation the Housing Authority must serve Section 8 applicants on a County-wide first-come-first-serve basis. Staff has been advised by Housing Authority staff that no Certificates were allocated to San Bernardino during the last year. However, approval of the allocation of Existing Section 8 Certificates to the City, enables the City to remain in compliance with its CDBG Housing Assistance Plan previously approved by the Mayor and Common Council and HUD. Staff recommends that the Mayor and Common Council authorize the Mayor of the City of San Bernardino to send a letter to the Executive Director of the San Bernardino County Housing Authority approving the allocation of additional existing Section 8 Certificates to the City of San Bernardino.
