Subject: Carlsbad Public Housing Agency Fiscal Year 2022-23 Annual Plan
Recommended Action
That the Housing Commission adopt a resolution recommending that the Community
Development Commission approve the Carlsbad Public Housing Agency (PHA) Annual Plan for
Fiscal Year 2022-23 for submission to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Executive Summary
The Housing & Homeless Services Department administers the federally funded Section 8 Rental
Assistance Program for the Carlsbad Public Housing Agency. Under federal law, a Public Housing
Agency (PHA) is required to submit a 5-Year and Annual Plan. These plans provide a basic guide to
PHA policies, rules, and requirements concerning the PHA’s operations, programs, and services. In
addition, the plans advise HUD and members of the public the PHA’s mission and strategies for
serving the needs of low-income and very low-income families for the next five years. The 5-Year
Plan was approved and adopted by the Community Development Commission on April 7, 2020.
Each year, the Carlsbad Public Housing Agency is required to prepare, adopt and submit to HUD an
Annual Plan consistent with the goals and objectives of the 5-Year Plan. The Fiscal Year 2022-23
Annual Plan (Attachment A of Exhibit 1) is the second annual update of the 5-Year Plan.
Analysis
The purpose of the 5-Year PHA Plan is to identify goals and objectives to serve the needs of low-
income (under 80% of the area median income - AMI), very low-income (under 50% of the AMI),
and extremely low-income (under 30% of the AMI) families for the next five years.
Feb. 10, 2022 Item #1 Page 1 of 17
The 5-Year PHA Plan goals are:
1.Expand the supply of assisted housing
2.Improve the quality of assisted housing
3.Increase assisted housing choices
4.Promote self-sufficiency and asset development of families and individuals
5.Ensure equal opportunity and affirmatively further fair housing
On an annual basis, the PHA needs to indicate the progress in meeting the goals and objectives
identified in the 5-Year PHA Plan which was adopted on April 7, 2020.
Further, the PHA is required to identify any PHA Plan elements that have been revised since the
last Annual Plan submission. The following area is addressed in the PHA Plan Update:
•Financial Resources
Next Steps
The Fiscal Year 2022-23 Annual Plan is required to be available for public review and comment
prior to a Public Hearing and adoption by the City Council who acts as the Community
Development Commission for this process. The public review period is 45 days and the Annual
Plan is due to the Housing and Urban Development Department (HUD) prior to April 17, 2022. A
Public Hearing will be scheduled for the Community Development Commission in April, 2022. All
public comments received on the Annual Plan will be addressed and included in the final
documents that will be submitted to HUD.
Environmental Review
Pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21065, this action does not constitute a “project”
within the meaning of CEQA in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change
in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment,
and therefore does not require environmental review.

The PHA will use the answer blocks in item D.1 to provide a statement of its strategies and actions to implement each fair housing goal outlined in its accepted Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH) consistent with 24 CFR § 5.154(d)(5) that states, in relevant part: “To implement goals and priorities in an AFH, strategies and actions shall be included in program participants' … PHA Plans (including any plans incorporated therein) …. Strategies and actions must affirmatively further fair housing ….” Use the chart provided to specify each fair housing goal from the PHA’s AFH for which the PHA is the responsible program participant – whether the AFH was prepared solely by the PHA, jointly with one or more other PHAs, or in collaboration with a state or local jurisdiction – and specify the fair housing strategies and actions to be implemented by the PHA during the period covered by this PHA Plan. If there are more than three fair housing goals, add answer blocks as necessary.

This information collection is authorized by Section 511 of the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act, which added a new section 5A to the U.S. Housing Act of 1937, as amended, which introduced the 5-Year and Annual PHA Plan. The 5-Year and Annual PHA Plans provide a ready source for interested parties to locate basic PHA policies, rules, and requirements concerning the PHA’s operations, programs, and services, and informs HUD, families served by the PHA, and members of the public of the PHA’s mission, goals and objectives for serving the needs of low- income, very low- income, and extremely low- income families.
