Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice
Executive Summary
The City of Charlottesville and the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission prepared this Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice as part of their commitment to "affirmatively furthering fair housing." The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice is a companion document to the Consolidated Plan and seeks to illustrate the current fair housing profile of the area, identify impediments to fair housing choice, describe current public and private fair housing programs in the region, and make recommendations to overcome the stated barriers. Impediments to fair housing choice are defined as any actions, omissions, or decisions taken because of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status or national origin that restrict housing choices or the availability of housing choice, or any actions, omissions or decisions that have this effect. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice for all recipients of HOME and Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. The member governments of the Thomas Jefferson Planning District (Counties of Albemarle, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa and Nelson, and the City of Charlottesville) entered into an agreement to participate in the HOME Program as a Consortium, and, therefore receive annual entitlement HOME funds available on an equal share basis available to each participating government. The City of Charlottesville has been designated the lead agency for the HOME Consortium and the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission the designated Program Manager for the Consortium. The City of Charlottesville is a CDBG entitlement community and receives annual CDBG funds to be used within the City.

Public Forum on Homelessness
Homelessness In A World-Class City
The first regional forum on homelessness was a huge success. Over 140 service providers, concerned citizens, volunteers, and people who were homeless met to identify gaps in regional services and to develop strategies to address them. TJACH will release a report in May on the results of the forum. Thanks are due to First Presbyterian Church in Charlottesville for graciously hosting the event and providing invaluable assistance.

    Fair Housing: It's Your Right
    Fighting Back Against Housing Discrimination
    More than 30 years after passage of the federal Fair Housing Act, housing discrimination continues to harm millions of Americans. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) estimates that each year 2.5 million people are victims of housing discrimination. The Fair Housing Act prohibits housing discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, family status (with children under 18) and disability. The law covers many kinds of housing transactions, including rentals, home sales, mortgage lending, homeowner's insurance, home improvement and zoning. In some states and municipalities, fair housing laws also protect residents from discrimination based on sexual preference and/or age. If you believe you were treated unfairly in a rental or real estate transaction because of who you are, you have a right to file a housing discrimination complaint. Call HUD at 1-800-669-9777 for information about filing a complaint.

    DOES YOUR TENANT SCREENING
    PASS A FAIR HOUSING TEST?
    By Omar Barraza
    This article focuses on the importance of thorough and consistent screening to ensure that you comply with both fair housing and good business practices. While this article cannot take the place of good, sound legal advice, I hope my fair housing frame of mind can be food for thought.
    Housing providers of every size should draft a screening policy that will govern decisions regarding the acceptance of tenants. A documented screening policy helps you in two ways: If a fair housing enforcement agency asks why an applicant was rejected, you can provide an objective answer.
    If an applicant wants to apply for tenancy, you can present your screening policy to him/her for review. An applicant can decide for him- or herself if he/she wants to apply. Before we get into criteria to consider in your screening policy, let's take a moment for applications. In general, it is safer to take applications on first-come, first-served basis. While some housing providers prefer to accept a block of applications and then choose from that pool, the first-come, first-served policy is a common business practice. For example, when you go to buy a new car, dealers take applications on a first-come, first-served basis. They measure the application against a basic set of criteria before committing to a sale.
    To meet fair housing standards, a consistent and sound screening policy measures a potential resident's willingness and ability to pay rent.

    SECTION 8 HOUSING "Section 8 is too much trouble!"
    "You Section 8 people don't meet our rental criteria."
    "We don't take Section 8 renters!"
    Some property owners and managers have made these and other similar statements to prospective renters who hold Section 8 certificates or vouchers. The Section 8 Program is a public/private partnership started in 1974 by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to offer an alternative to public housing projects. The program allows income-eligible people to live in privately owned housing with public financial assistance. Rather than creating areas with predominantly low-income families, the Section 8 Program helps prevent "ghettoization" and the stereotyping of low-income individuals by creating mixed-income neighborhoods throughout the city. The Section 8 Program is administered by housing authorities and has been very successful in providing assistance to families, the elderly, and people with disabilities. People who possess or use a Section 8 certificate or voucher are protected from discrimination in unincorporated King County by the King County Fair Housing Ordinance, as well as in Seattle by the Seattle Open Housing Ordinance.

    Fair Housing Law Project - Success Stories Racial Discrimination in Rental Housing Remedied An African-American woman rented an apartment in San José by telephone and moved her four children here from Sacramento. When she arrived in person to pick up the keys, the owner hesitated, then refused to rent her the apartment. The family became homeless, living in their car for several weeks. Testing confirmed differential treatment based on race. FHLP resolved the family’s subsequent federal lawsuit through negotiation. The owners agreed to attend fair housing training, institute a nondiscrimination policy, create trust funds for the children, and compensate FHLP for its attorney fees. Clown-Landlord’s Discrimination Against Families with Children Halted A woman attempted to rent an apartment for herself and her 20-month-old daughter, but the owner told her that the apartment was not healthy for children because it had asbestos and lead paint, and children under seven were not welcome. Another woman who rented an apartment from the same owner was hassled and charged more for her monthly rent because her 15-year-old son was living with her. FHLP filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of both women and their children for familial status discrimination. The suit settled for compensation for the families, attorney fees, and an agreement that the owner will sell his properties and go out of the rental business. Ironically, the landlord moonlights as a children's clown for rent.

    Frequently Asked Questions... Why did Congress enact the Housing Credit law in 1986? Congress created the federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit (also known as the federal Housing Credit program) because building and rehabilitating apartments costs too much in the private market to rent at rates low-income families can afford. The Housing Credit makes apartments affordable for working people with below-median incomes. How do Housing Credits differ from other federal housing programs?

    Housing Crisis for Seniors in Los Angeles
    Finding affordable housing and dealing with the eviction of long-term senior tenants are among the most difficult problems currently affecting elders and senior centers in the Los Angeles area. Several elements contribute to the current housing crisis for seniors: A shortage of affordable apartments, Rising market-rate rents, Rent control laws (Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, West Hollywood) In Los Angeles, the law prevents landlords from raising rents more than 3% per year until a tenant moves out. The law also allows landlords to evict tenants in order to make repairs of $10,000 or more per unit. It has become increasingly profitable for landlords to consider this option to replace long-term tenants with low rents. Changes in federally subsidized housing programs that make it easier for landlords to stop participating in them.

The Housing Division also offers low interest loans and grants to Sunnyvale homeowners for remodels and repairs. These loans and grants are available to qualifying Sunnyvale residents (low to moderate income families, seniors, or disabled citizens). The following is a brief description of these services.
    Housing Opportunities
    Since 1980 Sunnyvale has been a regional leader in addressing housing issues. Housing is one of the most difficult challenges facing cities in the Santa Clara Valley. The need for more and affordable housing is critical to solve the problems of:
    • Congested highways
      The needs of the homeless
      The exodus of young people from the area
      Constraints faced by local businesses in attracting new employees
    To meet this need for affordable housing the City offers:
    • An affordable rental program
      Affordable purchase programs Other affordable housing options
    Low Interest Loans and Grants Sunnyvale has also been active in addressing issues of neighborhood quality. We offer a number of creative financing programs to assist property owners in making building improvements. Each of our programs are designed to make needed renovations affordable for low to moderate income homeowners or for disabled low income tenants. The range of services is designed to help make property improvements as easy as possible. With assistance from the City of Sunnyvale you can make those long-needed repairs while improving the value of your property. Other services the Housing Division offers include information for emergency housing and services and general information on social services provided by the Housing Division

In covenant with Habitat for Humanity International, our mission is "to work in partnership with God and people everywhere, from all walks of life, to develop communities with God's people in need by building and renovating houses, so that there are decent houses in decent communities in which God's people can live and grow into all that God intended." The Habitat Program
    Using volunteer labor and donated money and materials, Habitat builds simple decent homes with qualified partner families. We sell the home at no profit and finance the purchase with a no interest loan. Mortgage payments are reinvested into the program to fund future building projects. Though non-traditional, Habitat is not a give-away program. In addition to the monthly mortgage payments, partner families contribute a minimum of 500 "sweat equity" hours to the actual construction of their future home and the homes of other Habitat families. This hands on approach and the fellowship that develops is one of the keys to success in changing lives. Habitat's mission is not just to build new houses but to build relationships with families and communities.

    April 14, 2000
    Predatory Lending But with the good news there is also bad news, or at least sobering news. Just as the expansion of subprime lending has increased access to credit, the expansion of its unfortunate counterpart, predatory lending, has made many low-income borrowers worse off. The distinction is important. Subprime lending refers to lending to borrowers who do not qualify for "prime" rates, those rates reserved for borrowers with virtually blemish-free credit histories. Prime loans are often described as "A" credits, and the mortgage industry has adopted a grading scheme for subprime that extends from A-minus through D. Premiums range from about 1 point over prime for A-minus loans to about 6 points over prime for D loans. These premiums have been questioned, and some have argued that many low-income borrowers are still charged too much; but long-run forces may eliminate inappropriate spreads. We would normally expect that premiums in a market as competitive as mortgage lending would at least move toward appropriate levels over time. The ultimate difference between subprime and predatory lending comes back to the competitive assumptions. If one is a market optimist and believes that both lenders and borrowers are rational and well-informed, then subprime credit markets with proper rate differentials will open up. If one is a market pessimist and believes that borrowers are not well-informed and may not be fully rational, then some lenders will have opportunities to exploit these borrowers with predatory practices. Distinguishing positive subprime lending from negative predatory lending is obviously important, particularly for regulators trying to encourage one type of lending and discourage the other.
