- Share via
The Ventura County Board of Supervisors approved a plan Tuesday to spend $856,600 next year to help low-income homeowners rehabilitate their houses.
The plan, approved by a 5-0 vote, also calls for spending $2.7 million to develop affordable housing and disbursing more than $10 million in subsidies for low-income renters.
The housing plan outlines how the county’s unincorporated areas and the cities of Camarillo, Fillmore, Santa Paula, Moorpark, Port Hueneme and Ojai plan to spend more than $17 million in federal, state and local funding earmarked for affordable housing projects in the upcoming fiscal year.
The plan also calls for spending $716,000 to acquire existing dwellings and make them available for low- and moderate-income home buyers, $556,000 in support services for the poor and $534,000 in administrative costs.
It is the first year that federal authorities have required a housing strategy plan from subsidy recipients.
The county’s four largest cities must submit separate plans.
