Agenda Item Text:
Adopt Resolution 14-05 to designate the Bay Acres Townsite as a Colonia under the Cranston-Gonzales National Affordable Housing Act of 1990.
Background:
Bay Acres Townsite north west of Douglas, Arizona is an unincorporated community within Cochise County, Arizona, which lacks a potable water supply, adequate sewage systems, and/or decent and safe sanitary housing, adequate roads and drainage and fits the criteria as being eligible as a Colonia under the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act of 1990.
Designating the area as a Colonia will allow the County or others an opportunity to seek funding specific to Colonia areas.
Designating the area as a Colonia will allow the County or others an opportunity to seek funding specific to Colonia areas.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Submit the application to package to the Arizona Dept. of Housing for review and anticipated approval of the area to be designated as a Colonia.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
Bay Acres will not be designated as a Colonia and will lose the opportunity for designated funding opportunities that will arise in the future.
