AGENDA TITLE: Set Public Hearing for January 6, 2021 to Consider Adopting a Resolution
Approving Amendment No. 1 to the Permanent Local Housing Allocation
(PLHA) Program
MEETING DATE: December 22, 2020
PREPARED BY: Community Development Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION. Set Public hearing for January 6, 2021 to consider
adopting a resolution approving Amendment No. 1 to the
Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Program.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: A public hearing is required as part of the requirements
under the California Department of Housing and
Community Development (HCD) Permanent Local Housing
Allocation (PLHA) Program if the reallocation of funds to a
different eligible activity exceeds ten (10) percent.
In 2017 Governor Jerry Brown signed a package of housing bills aimed at addressing
California's housing shortage and high housing costs. This legislation package included Senate
Bill (SB) 2, the Building Homes and Jobs Act, which established a $75 recording fee on real
estate documents to increase the supply of affordable homes in California and to address other
urgent housing issues. Under SB 2 the revenue from these recording fees is deposited into the
established Building Homes and Jobs Trust Fund. Beginning in 2019 seventy (70) percent of the
monies collected and deposited into this fund are allocated to the Permanent Local Housing
Allocation (PLHA) program to support locally administered affordable housing.
As required by HCD, staff prepared a PLHA plan that outlined the anticipated project costs and
schedule over the five-year period. The original plan submission designated support for
predevelopment of a permanent homeless shelter in Lodi. The requested amendment would
allow the first-year allocation, to be redirected towards the support of the construction and
development of the Harmony Homes Project which location was approved on December 2,
2020 by City Council. The City's Harmony Home project will create four units of permanent
housing for homeless individuals and families or those at risk of homelessness. This supportive
housing will help at -risk individuals/families move into long-term, affordable housing where they
can continue their progress toward stable and independent living.
FUNDING ALLOCATION:
On October 23, 2020, the City of Lodi received a first-year award amount of $336,265 in PLHA
funds of the estimated $2,017,590 available over the five-year plan period.
APPROVED:

2021 public hearing.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact, since there is no obligated City match for
this grant program.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: $336,265 first-year PLHA award amount.
