The Chandler Public Housing Authority Commission on Feb. 2 voted unanimously to approve the consent agenda for its meeting convened that day, after staff explained the environmental-review requirements tied to HUD-funded capital projects.
An unidentified commissioner moved to approve items 1 and 2 for the Public Housing Authority Commission; the clerk called the roll. Commissioners recorded “Yes” votes from Encinas, Poston, Ellis, Orlando, Harris, Hawkins and Chairman Hartke. Staff clarified that HUD requires an environmental review for every HUD-funded capital project, including projects involving redevelopment or demolition, and that the capital grant for 2024 along with project-specific developer fees will cover the review for several sites. Staff also noted an additional $50,000 allocation tied to the Haven On Hamilton redevelopment would be covered by development fees.
The item carried unanimously; no amendments or further conditions were recorded during the session.
