Plan also estimates that 22,511 housing units in the City are in substandard condition (i.e., <br />either overcrowded or have incomplete plumbing or plumbing facilities). <br />To address these "worst -case housing" needs the City supported the following program <br />activities: <br />■ The Housing Authority of the City of Santa Ana provided rental assistance to lower income <br />households in the community. During the report period, approximately 2,540 households <br />were assisted with housing vouchers, valued at approximately $24.4 million for the fiscal <br />year. Between October 1, 2007 and November 30, 2007, the Authority accepted new <br />applications. During this time 9,465 applications were received. <br />■ During the 2008 -2009 report period, the City utilized public resources to assist with the <br />rehabilitation of ten rental- housing units. The rehab of these units was funded with HOME <br />resources. All of these units have restricted rents that are affordable to lower income <br />households. <br />■ During the report period, 45 households were displaced as a result of two <br />City /Redevelopment- funded affordable housing projects. The City complied with all <br />applicable federal and state relocation laws to ensure displaced households were properly <br />compensated and housed. Additional relocation may be necessary next program year as a <br />result of new projects funded during the 2009 -2010 report period. <br />4.
