PHA 5-Year and Annual Plan U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Office of Public and Indian Housing OMB No. 2577-0226 Expires 8/30/2011 1.0 PHA Information PHA Name: Housing Authority of the County of Lebanon PHA Code: PA052 PHA Type: Small High Performing Standard HCV (Section 8) PHA Fiscal Year Beginning: (MM/YYYY): 07/2015 2.0 Inventory (based on ACC units at time of FY beginning in 1.0 above) Number of PH units: 405 Number of HCV units: 755 3.0 Submission Type 5-Year and Annual Plan Annual Plan Only 5-Year Plan Only 4.0 PHA Consortia Participating PHAs PHA Consortia: (Check box if submitting a joint Plan and complete table below.) PHA Code PHA 1: PHA 2: PHA 3: 5.0 5-Year Plan. Complete items 5.1 and 5.2 only at 5-Year Plan update. Program(s) Included in the Consortia Programs Not in the Consortia No. of Units in Each Program PH HCV 5.1 Mission. State the PHA s Mission for serving the needs of low-income, very low-income, and extremely low income families in the PHA s jurisdiction for the next five years: The mission of our agency is the same as that of the Department of Housing and Urban Development: To promote adequate and affordable housing, economic opportunity and a suitable living environment free from discrimination. 5.2 Goals and Objectives. Identify the PHA s quantifiable goals and objectives that will enable the PHA to serve the needs of low-income and very low-income, and extremely low-income families for the next five years. Include a report on the progress the PHA has made in meeting the goals and objectives described in the previous 5-Year Plan. Goal: Leverage private or public funds to create additional housing opportunities (acquire or build units or developments) The Authority continues to explore opportunities to develop additional housing through the low income housing tax credit program Goal: Improve public housing management (PHAS) score: The Authority has achieved high performer status for the past two years. We will continue to strive to maintain our high level of performance. Goal: Designate development for particular resident groups: We have renewed the designation of Stevens Towers as an elderly development in 2014. We will continue to monitor the need for any other necessary designations. Goal: Increase the number and percentage of employed persons in assisted families: As of January 20, 2015 93% of all income received by public housing families came from earned income, social security or pensions. Only 6% of income came from TANF or some other form of public welfare. The data clearly demonstrates our resident s success in obtaining employment. Goal: Participate in HUD s goal to end homelessness: The Authority has obtained 130 VASH vouchers specifically designated to assist the homeless. In addition, the Authority has obtained funding through the Continuum of Care to provide housing to seriously mentally ill homeless individuals. Goal: Undertake affirmative measures to ensure access to assisted housing regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, familial status and disability. The Authority ensures equal access to all of its housing programs. For example in Lebanon County 2.2% of the population is African American and 9.3% identifies as Hispanic. In the Authority s housing programs 10% of participants are African American and 49% are Hispanic. This data clearly demonstrates that the Authority has succeeded in providing access to all citizens of Lebanon County.

Resident Advisory Board Meeting Summary March 24, 2015 3:00 P.M. During a meeting of the Lebanon County Housing Authority s Resident Advisory Board held on March 23, 2015 at 3:00 p.m. at Stevens Towers, the proposed Annual Agency Plan for Fiscal Year 2015 was reviewed with those in attendance, as follows: RAB Members: Rose Snyder, Gary Snyder, Juan Rivera, Pablo Hernandez, Randall Poole, Gary Lowe, Sr., Beth Bates, Kathy Flory, Madeline Amill, Henrietta Treadwell, Nancy Clay Housing Authority Staff: Bryan Hoffman, Sue Bowman, Susan Galbraith, Cindy Shumaker Guests: David Desper, Stevens Towers resident 1. As background to the Agency Plan discussions, Mr. Hoffman gave a video presentation using charts showing the Federal budget allocations for public housing and related subsidy gains or losses. He pointed out that utilities are the Housing Authority s single largest expenditure. In response to a question from a RAB member about the possible use of solar panels, Mr. Hoffman pointed out that the Housing Authority is not able to use any of its reserves to pay for capital improvements. Mr. Hoffman went on to note that, since the Authority s capital needs far outstrip the available funding, we have to choose our most urgent needs. Thus, we have been concentrating on roof replacements for the past several years, as well as for the next few years. He then went on to provide an overview of the Agency Plan, with emphasis on the proposed Capital Fund Program expenditures. It was noted that the first $200,000 of each year s CFP spending currently goes to debt reduction on the loan used to completely renovate Stevens Towers back in 2005; another $40,000 per year is allocated to administrative costs, while fees and design costs run about $25,000 per year. The 2015 funding figure for LCHA is $567,582, or about $5,000 more than the funding for 2014. Mr. Hoffman explained that HUD requires that same number to be used for estimating CFP budget figures for the upcoming four years. It was also pointed out that, under project-based management, capital improvements funding is done on a project-byproject basis, rather than on an Authority-wide basis. 2. Ms. Bowman stated that HUD s change in the way flat rents are computed has increased these figures significantly for most bedroom sizes; thus an update is needed to Chapter 11 of the Authority s Admissions and Occupancy Policy to give an added priority to any overhoused or underhoused household for which a

transfer to an appropriately sized unit would lessen their flat rent burden. Additionally, given HUD s emphasis on transferring overhoused families to free up those units for new and potentially higher-paying tenants, the weighting on the transfer list is now being changed so that overhoused and underhoused families are both given equal points in the rating system. 3. A Stevens Towers resident asked about the possibility of providing WiFi for residents of that building. Mr. Hoffman explained that doing so would require more bandwidth from the Authority s Internet provider at an added cost. Residents then asked whether they could pay an access fee to help defray that cost; Mr. Hoffman explained that the Authority is precluded from charging a fee for such services. 4. Mr. Hoffman noted that that Housing Authority s Section 8 waiting list has been closed since July 2010; however, the Authority is currently updating the applicants remaining on that list and foresees possibly reopening the Section 8 waiting list, at least for some period of time, later in 2015. 5. Mr. Hoffman added that the Authority will also be updating its public housing waiting lists in order to obtain information about households Veteran s status in order to comply with a new Veteran s preference law enacted by the Pennsylvania legislature in late 2014. 6. Mr. Hoffman encouraged RAB members to stay abreast of the Housing Authority s activities and/or to review documents like the Agency Plan and Admissions and Occupancy Policy on-line at the website www.lebanoncountyhousing.com. 7. It was the consensus of the RAB membership that, given the current budgetary restrictions, the 2015 Agency Plan meets with their approval.

MINUTES OF PUBLIC HEARING Lebanon, Pennsylvania April 8, 2015 A public hearing on the 2015-2019 annual Agency Plan for the Housing Authority of the County of Lebanon was held at 1:45 p.m. in the Community Room of Stevens Towers, 930 Willow Street, Lebanon, PA. There were present: Housing Authority members: George Kaufman Neva Luttman Amy Leonard Walter Zehring Staff: Bryan Hoffman, Sue Bowman and Karen Raugh of Lebanon County Housing Authority; Elizabeth Bowman and Daniel Lyons, Lebanon County Redevelopment Authority 1. Housing Authority Executive Director Bryan Hoffman called the public hearing to order at 1:50 p.m. There were no members of the public present. 2. Mr. Hoffman reviewed that the hearing had been properly advertised in the Lebanon Daily News, all residents of public housing had received a notice about the hearing, and the hearing notice had been posted at all Housing Authority offices, as well as on the Authority s website. He pointed out that a meeting of the Authority s Resident Advisory Board had been held on March 24, 2015 with 12 program participants in attendance; no negative comments were received at that time. 3. Mr. Hoffman noted that he had received no written comments about the annual Agency Plan from any Housing Authority stakeholder nor any member of the public. He added that both the County of Lebanon and the City of Lebanon had provided their signed statements that the Housing Authority s 2015 Agency Plan is consistent with their respective Consolidated Plans. 4. Housing Authority resident board member, Neva Luttman, indicated that she is sometimes approached about how the Housing Authority spends the money it receives. Mr. Hoffman responded that two-thirds of that money goers towards the payment of utilities and assorted maintenance contracts and without subsidy from HUD, it would be impossible to balance the Authority s budgets. Mr.

Zehring suggested that the Housing Authority post information indicating to residents how the money from subsidies and rents is spent. 5. There being no further questions or comments received at this time, the public hearing was adjourned at 1:57 p.m.

PLAN CONTENT The Housing Authority of the County of Lebanon (HACL) requests HUD s approval to designate its two high-rise buildings for individuals and households that are 50 years of age or older. The following is basic information on these two highrises: Stevens Towers (PA 52-1B) is a high rise constructed in 1970. It is currently undergoing a major renovation, which will take it from a total of 100 units down to 80. This will be achieved by combining 40 smaller units into 20 larger one bedroom apartments. Following its remodeling, Steven Towers will have 40 standard one bedroom apartments, 20 standard efficiency apartments, and 20 large one bedroom apartments. As a result of the remodeling, the number of accessible units will increase from two to seven. Stevens Towers is located near historic downtown Lebanon. It is located close to churches, the community library, farmer s market, banks, and the hospital. Washington Arms (PA-52-3) opened in 1976. It is a 60 unit, 4-story building that includes 5 two bedroom apartments (1 of which is handicap accessible), 25 one bedroom apartments (of which 2 are handicap accessible) and 30 efficiencies. It is located within one block of the county s only hospital and two blocks from a rehabilitation facility. It is near the central business area. The Authority s main offices are located in this building. Both buildings have electronically controlled entrances to a single building. The entrances and the common areas are fully accessible. The common areas enable the residents to participate in group activities. As discussed further in the following sections, the Authority proposes to expand the number of accessible apartments in another site and to open its Voucher waiting list to disabled persons. The Authority will also apply for additional Housing Choice Vouchers if such become available. All residents of public housing and Voucher participants have access to the Authority s social services department. One case worker specializes in senior clients only, while another caseworker handles non-elderly tenants. For younger residents with disabilities, the social services provided generally involve the provision of information and referrals to appropriate community agencies. These services will be available to those who are not able to obtain apartments in the two high rises as the result of the designation of these buildings for those 50 years of age and over. As demonstrated on the following chart, 63 of the residents of Stevens Towers are over 70 including 31 percent who are over 80.
