Title
Presentation: Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI)
Body
Lee's Summit is an entitlement community under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to receive annual allocation of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). As a CDBG grantee, every 5 years the City is required to identify barriers to fair housing choice and take steps toward addressing those barriers through CDBG program and other local and regional actions. The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) identifies such barriers and proposes strategies and future actions to overcome these barriers. During the past 12 months, a community wide public engagement process and extensive research and analysis resulted in a draft AI report to be presented today.
Recommendation
Discussion regarding the AI report which is the first step in our required reporting process with HUD.
