' • New construction of single-family homes for sale to income-qualified homebuyers <br /> ' • Creation of new rental units for income-qualified tenants <br /> ' Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing <br /> The Housing Authority of South Bend maintains a Section 8 Landlord Assistance Program in which any <br /> resident living in a Section 8 unit that has been identified as lead contaminated and where the owner <br /> refuses to bring the home into a lead safe status, has an absolute preference on the Public Housing <br /> waiting list for the first available unit. Additionally, any pre-1978 Section 8 home that is identified during <br /> the Housing Authority's Annual Housing Quality Standards Inspection as having chipping, peeling or <br /> 1 cracking paint must receive and pass a clearance test by a State certified inspection. <br /> These policies have significantly increased the number of affordable housing units that are lead-safe in <br /> the City. The HASB also maintains an active list of current lead safe addresses at <br /> http://www.hasbonline.com/docs/safe.pdf <br /> Additionally, from 2006 through 2016, the HASB received a Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction Grant. In <br /> 2016, due in part to HUD reducing the amount of funds in this program by 50%, the HASB grant was not <br /> renewed. The HASB will continue to apply or support another application for additional lead hazard <br /> reduction funds to be available to St.Joseph County. <br /> Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards <br /> The Housing Authority of South Bend maintains a Section 8 Landlord Assistance Program in which any <br /> resident living in a Section 8 unit that has been identified as lead contaminated and where the owner <br /> refuses to bring the home into a lead safe status, has an absolute preference on the Public Housing <br /> waiting list for the first available unit.

The Community Investment staff <br /> regularly communicates with all sub-grantees, and meets with those entities involved in the targeted <br /> areas. Regularly scheduled meetings with the CDCs occur due to the nature of the work and the amount <br /> of funds allocated. <br /> The Center for the Homeless STAR (Skilled,Trained, Able, and Ready) program addresses the root causes <br /> ' Annual Action Plan 53 <br /> 2018 <br /> ' OMB Control No:2506-0117(exp.06/30/2018) <br />
