The Housing Authority’s Agency Plan is a five-year plan that outlines policies and programs the Housing Authority currently has in effect to address housing needs. It basically allows the public to see in one place exactly what the policies are and to look up policy and program information in areas of specific interest. Development of the plan was required under the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act, the first major housing legislation passed by Congress in the last five years .
