    CR-05 - Goals and Outcomes Progress the jurisdiction has made in carrying out its strategic plan and its action plan. 91.520(a) This could be an overview that includes major initiatives and highlights that were proposed and executed throughout the program year. The City of Tacoma continues to face a growing housing affordability problem. Today, nearly 33,000 households in Tacoma pay at least 30 percent of their income on housing costs each month, reducing their ability to meet other needs like transportation, childcare, or healthcare. The City of Tacoma needs to stay affordable to help maintain the quality of life that Tacoma is known for, and to ensure housing costs do not worsen as the city grows over time. In 2018, the City of Tacoma developed this Affordable Housing Action Strategy (AHAS) as an urgent response to its changing housing market, increasing risk of displacement among residents, and widespread need for high-quality, affordable housing opportunities for all. Received by the City Council in September 2018, the AHAS has the potential to produce 6,000 new affordable units; preserve 2,300 existing affordable units and serve an additional 2,200 households by 2028. In total, it will reach 10,500 households living in the City of Tacoma. Implementation of the AHAS will involve a mix of funding from federal dollars such as Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) funds and local resources. To achieve this, the City Council allocated $1.2 million in local General Fund resources as seed money for a Housing Trust Fund that will go toward meeting the goals and objectives set forth in the AHAS.

  • Public Assistance Programs
    During the past 5 years, the Department of Housing and Urban Development has expanded homeownership, increased access to affordable housing, strengthened communities through economic development, fought housing discrimination, and tackled chronic homelessness. HUD has implemented innovative solutions to address our nation’s housing needs and has achieved great results. Despite its many accomplishments, HUD recognizes that challenges remain to be addressed. Despite achieving the highest homeownership rate in American history, minorities are still less likely than non-Hispanic whites to own their homes. Opening doors to homeownership is a core aspect of HUD’s mission. The most significant barriers to homeownership are downpayment and closing costs. To overcome this barrier, HUD’s American Dream Downpayment Initiative (ADDI) provides low- and moderate-income individuals with funds needed to purchase their first home. In this respect, since its inception in Fiscal Year 2004, ADDI has already helped thousands of Americans, nearly half of whom were minority families. While increasing homeownership is a top priority, HUD knows it is not a viable option for everyone. Therefore, providing decent affordable rental housing is a central part of HUD’s mission. HUD’s largest program, the Housing Choice Voucher program, promotes affordable rental housing for families and individuals. The program currently provides rental assistance to more than four million households through public and assisted housing programs. The mission of HUD also includes strengthening communities. The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program is HUD’s most important community development program and it is one of the most flexible programs provided to localities by the federal government.
