C. The Authority is required to review its operations and needs for the Five Year Plan and Annual Plan with input from HCV participants. Three (3) Resident Advisory Board Meetings were held on February 5, 2025, with responses incorporated into the Five Year Plan and Annual Plan, as required by HUD regulations.

On January 31, 2025, a legal notice was published in the Orange County Register, Nguoi Viet and La Opinión advising the public that a draft of the Five Year Plan and Annual Plan was available for public review and comment and a public hearing would be held on March 18, 2025. The public comment period ended on March 18, 2025. Further, a public hearing was held by the Authority on March 18, 2025, and all comments received at the hearing are included in the final documents to be submitted to HUD.

Section 2. The Five Year Plan for Fiscal Years 2025-2030 of the Housing Authority of the City of Santa Ana is hereby approved and adopted. Said Five Year Plan shall be submitted by the Authority to HUD.
