NEWPORT NEWS REDEVELOPMENT AND HOUSING AUTHORITY
MEMORANDUM
DATE: August 13, 2025
TO: All Members, Board of Commissioners
FROM: Lysandra M. Shaw, Executive Director ™
SUBJECT: Public Housing Agency (PHA) Plans
Attached for your review and approval is our proposed Five Year Agency Plan which
includes the Annual Plan for FY 2026 along with the required attachments.
The public housing Agency Plan is a comprehensive guide to our policies, programs,
services offered to clients, operations and plan to assist with local housing needs.
There are two parts to the PHA Plan: the Five Year Plan and the Annual Plan. The Five
Year Plan describes the mission and goals of the Authority. The Annual Plan is a
detailed review of all Authority operations along with the Capital Fund Program
priorities. The Plan is required by the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The Plan includes comments received from residents attending the Resident Advisory
Board virtual zoom meeting on July 18, 2025. A telephone call-in number was provided
as well. The proposed plan covers the period 2026-2030 and includes an Annual Plan
for FY 2026.
The Agency Plan includes all updated requirements for participation in the Rental
Assistance Demonstration program, Choice Neighborhoods program and Housing
Choice Voucher programs. After Board approval, any new elements will be referenced
in our Agency Plan, Admission and Continued Occupancy Policy and the Housing
Choice Voucher Administrative Plan.
We have met all public participation requirements. A notice appeared in the Daily Press
on Sunday, July 20, 2025 and the Tidewater Hispanic on July 17, 2025 stating the draft
Plan was available for public review. The Five Year Agency Plan was also posted on
the website. In addition to the Resident Advisory Board meeting held on July 18, 2025
to discuss the contents of the Plan, a public hearing will also be held as part of the
August 19, 2025 NNRHA board meeting to allow any citizen input.
The Agency Plan is due to HUD no later than October 18, 2025 which is 75 days before
the end of our new fiscal year which begins January 1, 2026.
The attached resolution is recommended for approval.
