ORANGE COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br /> <br />ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br /> Meeting Date: June 5, 2018 <br /> Action Agenda <br /> Item No. 7-a <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Update on the Manufactured Home Park Initiative <br /> <br />DEPARTMENT: Department of Housing and <br />Community Development <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />ATTACHMENT(S): <br />Draft Displacement Mitigation Assistance <br />Program (D-MAP) Guidelines <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> INFORMATION CONTACT: <br /> Sherrill Hampton, Director, Housing and <br />Community Development, (919) 245-2490 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />PURPOSE: To provide an update on the activities undertaken to date, as well as those that are <br />upcoming, as it relates to the County’s Manufactured Home Park Initiative. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND: The last update provided to the Board occurred on March 20, 2018.
