Sherrill Hampton said she is proud of her staff, and the County went from 2 houses in <br /> 2017 to 40 by the end of 2019, which is a great accomplishment. She said staff is finding that <br /> the level of substandardness is high, and her department has had to supplement the funds. <br /> She said another finding is that there are lot of well and septic issus, and her department works <br /> closely with the Health Department, who assesses the situation to bring it in line with state <br /> regulations. She said part of the rehab program has been carved out for well and septic repair, <br /> and is part of the budget. She said the highest well cost $13,800. <br /> Commissioner Price referred to the budget line item for housing rehabilitation, and asked <br /> if this is increasing from $375,000 to $754,000 because more funding is needed. <br /> Sherrill Hampton said yes, the funds are for urgent repair, the well and septic repair, and <br /> comprehensive rehabilitation goes even higher. She said this replenishes the funds, and there <br /> are several jobs forthcoming that will have relatively high costs. She said staff is focusing on <br /> making the best and most efficient decisions. <br /> Travis Myren resumed the presentation: <br /> Human Services <br /> • Housing and Community Development—page 278 <br /> Housing Choice Voucher Rent Subsidies <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> Human Services <br /> • Housing and Community Development—page 278 <br /> • Community Development Division <br /> Federal HOME Grant <br /> • FapactHOMFGranfmDecreeaelrom$G01,aa0 in FV181Bfo$350331in FY18-20 <br /> Urgent Repair Program <br /> Rape. hashh_Iga_aafary.xcaaaitilily,<50%AMi <br /> • M•,—t S200,V001or FYI W20 <br /> • Curnnr Pregrem Bianco-3106.000m o1614 <br /> • Gaalof Rapainng 25 Xomean FY1&20 <br /> Single Family Rehabilitation Program <br /> • Comprenewae Rehebltaeam la Low ane Modamre aroma Famitiea c80%AMI <br /> • Maindin$253,000forFY19-20 <br /> • Cumem Program Bvence$126,000m of et4 <br /> • Goal of Rehabiliuting 15 Homes <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> x —AMA <br /> Human Services <br /> • Housing and Community Development—page 278 <br /> Urgent Repair Units Single Family Housing <br /> _ — Rehabilitation Units <br /> i.CO <br /> ORANGE COI.IhRY <br /> Z7 NORTH G4ROLMA <br />
