CEA is meeting today, Thursday November 4 at 1 pm in the D.C. courthouse room 310 to discuss the future of HADCO and how our public housing policy is made. Anyone in the vacinity today that is interested in HADCO’s Annual Housing Plan for our community, or about filling the two vacant board seats, is welcome.
HADCO’s Annual Plan is currently out for public comment. The written comment period ends November 14. Anyone wanting to make comments can write to HADCO by then. After this the HADCO Commission will hold a public hearing. At which time, they will also consider public comment about changes. The Board will have to vote to approve the Plan, after which it will be submitted to HUD for their approval. Once approved, the Plan becomes the basis for how the program is going to operate for the next year.

CEA did meet with HADCO residents. Since then, HADCO was made aware that they did not provide the right legal notice regarding the public hearing for their annual plan and reset the 45 day comment period and the public hearing. This gives all of more item to find out what HADCO staff has planned for our local housing program and provide our input.
CEA will be meeting again with HADCO resident and interested public to help them provide input to the plan. We then plan on attending the public hearing in January.
