CAPTION

The Hidalgo County Urban County Program (UCP) is requesting authorization for the County Judge to appoint a Five (5) member “Work Group” responsible for completing the State’s Fair Housing Activity Statement – Texas Form (“FHAST Form”) and identifying the community’s fair housing impediments and proposed steps for addressing those impediments.

BACKGROUND

As part of the process for Round 2.2 of the CDBG Disaster Recovery Program, all applicants must have a completed FHAST form to accompany their application. The intent of a locally-appointed FHAST Work Group is to have a locally-defined Fair Housing Action Plan (based on local circumstances) and to ensure that jurisdictions meet their obligations to abide by Fair Housing laws and regulations and to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing. Please see attached FHAST Form Guide identifying steps for selection of Work Group, posting of selections and successful completion of the form.
