Analysis
What type of plan will the HopkinsHRA need to submit?
The Hopkins HRA is required to submit both the updated Annual and Five-Year Action Plans
each year. This year, we made slight changes to the plan from last year to reflect work completed
in 2016. The Five-Year Action plan requires HUD review and approval, prior to the actual
submission of the 2017 Capital Fund Plans.
Alternatives
The HRA Board of Commissioners has the following alternatives available for addressing this
issue:
Adopt Resolution517and approve the Annual and Five-Year Action Plans.
