ITEM EXPLANATION The HUD Section 8 Voucher Program includes a “portable voucher” component which permits participants to take their voucher from housing authority to housing authority. There is no geographical restriction to transfer of these vouchers. When portable vouchers are received in the City of Carlsbad, they are processed as any other Section 8 participant. The City is reimbursed from the original initiating agency for housing payment costs plus a percentage for administrative fees. Currently, five families are residing in Carlsbad using vouchers issued from other housing agencies (ie., portable vouchers). The number of voucher holders in any fiscal year can vary. In order to provide sufficient funds to cover portable housing vouchers through June 30, 1990, the Housing and Redevelopment Commission is asked to authorize an appropriation of $24,000 to the Housing Portable Voucher Budget and to direct the Finance Director to transfer the funds. FISCAL IMPACT There is no net cost to the City. The City will be reimbursed from other agencies to cover all expenditures. EXHIBITS 1.
