THE CHOWAN HERALD
tified tenant families having
income of 80 per cent or less
of the median income in the
area.
Through the use of local
Public Housing Agencies as
program Administrators
since 1974 HUD has housed
nearly six hundred thousand
families through the
Existing Housing Phase of
this program.
In a recent report “Rental
Housing Assistance for the
Poor: A Southern Analysis”
published by the Southern
Regional Council in Atlanta,
Georgia, Southern state in
responding to the needs of
non-metropolitan areas...”
through the Section 8
existing housing program.
HUD’s success with the
program in North Carolina
can be attributed to, the
report continues, “a flexible
and diverse approach to
Section 8 existing programs
by the stae. North Carolina
has taken advantage of the
fact that in rural areas
Section 8 programs do not
require the existence of a
local housing authority. As a
consequence, existing
housing programs cap ,be
administered by any public
entity such as a community
action agency, a regional
council of governments, or a
department of social ser
vices.”
It was these housing
agencies and authorities
which were represented at
the two-day meeting.
Ned Fowler, Executive
Director of the Nor
thwestern Regional Housing
Authority and President of
the Association, opened the
meeting with an update of
program regulations. He
explained that HUD’s
Central Office in
Washington, D.C. is taking a
greater interest in providing
technical assistance and
administrative guidance to
Public Housing Agencies
connected with Section 8
programs. A summary of
HUD’s latest administrative
issuances were provided for
workshop participants.
Key program policies
were discussed in “round
table” fashion utilizing
experienced program
directors as topic
moderators. HUD’s home
counseling program, a
discussion topic which drew
considerable response from
the participants, was
moderated by Gloria Bryant
and Elza Loflin, President
and Vice-President
respectively of the North
Carolina Federation of
Housing Counselors.
On Friday, program
policy issues were recapped
utilizing summaries of the
previous day’s discussions.
The absence of HUD per
sonnel, ordinarily in at
tendance at the
Association’s quarterly
meetings and workshops,
was explained as being due
to conflicts in scheduling
and short notice.
Contractual and legal
problems experienced by
Public Housing Agencies
nationwide were brought to
the attention of the group.
The inadequacy of ap
propriate funding to im
plement HUD’s new
regulations regarding
mobile home owners was
addressed and findings will
be forwarded to HUD’s Area
Office in Greensboro as well
as the Central Office.
Future workshops are
being organized around
specific areas of program
concern as designated by
HUD officials and expressed
interests of the
Association’s membership.
