The Board of Supervisors retroactively authorized the Planning Department to accept and expend a $7,000,000 PRO Housing grant from HUD for the period from January 22, 2025 through September 30, 2030 to support initiatives that remove barriers to housing production. Grant-funded activities include permitting system improvements, municipal code updates, preservation of Single Room Occupancy buildings, partnerships with faith-based organizations to develop affordable housing, expansion of housing types in high-opportunity areas, and the creation of a community benefits framework for equity communities. The resolution approves the grant agreement under Charter Section 9.118(a), waives indirect cost inclusion, and authorizes the Planning Director to amend the agreement and enter related interagency and third-party contracts. The grant leverages $9.9M in City staff time and matching funding to enhance housing production, preservation, and equity outcomes. Approved retroactively due to timing of HUD award and legislative calendar.
