At the direction of Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Department of Housing and Community Development is beginning a program to develop recommendations for the Administration on securing a permanent funding source for affordable housing.

HCD will hold seven regional meetings throughout the State with key stakeholders in the business, education, environmental, local government, and housing communities during the first six months of the year.  The Department will have a variety of hosts and co-hosts for each meeting.  In addition to these major, regional meetings which will be led by the Director, HCD Deputy Directors will convene smaller focus groups throughout the State to hear from constituents and locations not covered in the meetings above.

During the months of July and August 2008, HCD will be compiling recommendations for the Governor’s administration, with feedback from meeting participants.  The Department plans to have a final draft for review by the Governor’s office no later than September 30, 2008.
