The meetings were conducted in three languages: English, Spanish, and Vietnamese. All active participants in the HCV Program who reside in the City of Santa Ana were mailed a survey and an invitation to participate on the Resident Advisory Board. The comments from the Resident Advisory Board and survey were incorporated into the Annual Plan. Staff analyzed all of the recommendations from the Resident Advisory Board and survey responses by: (1) considering the feasibility of each recommendation; (2) discussing as a team the opportunity for the Santa Ana Housing Authority (SAHA) to implement each recommendation; and (3) making a determination on which recommendation(s) could be implemented or considered for future implementation. All of the recommendations were taken into consideration by staff and incorporated into the Annual Plan. On February 16, 2024, a legal notice was published in the Orange County Register, Nguoi Viet, and La Opinión advising the public that a draft of the Annual Plan was available for public review and comment and a public hearing would be held on April 2, 2024 (Exhibit 3). The Annual Plan was also made available on the Housing Authority’s website and in the Housing Authority lobby.

All public comments received will be included in the Annual Plan submitted to HUD. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. EXHIBIT(S) 1. Housing Authority Annual Plan 2.
