resident Obamas first budget request for the Department of

Housing and Urban Development (HUD) totals $46.3


billion, which represents a 10.8 percent increase over the fiscal
year 2009 budget of $41.8 billion. This increase will not only
begin to make up for eight years of underfunded programs
under the Bush Administration, but also catalyze job creation,
stabilize neighborhoods, and allow for research and the
development of sustainability initiatives. In his press
conference detailing the budget request, Secretary Donovan
said, the 2010 Budget represents, in short, the start to a new
HUD and a new era of innovation and impact.
As the following chart shows, the fiscal year 2010 budget
increases will strengthen efforts to expand the production and
preservation of affordable rental housing, renew expiring rental assistance contracts, build vital and sustainable
urban and rural communities, create neighborhoods of choice, maintain and operate public housing, address the
rise in homelessness and catalyze new markets for energy efficiency and housing retrofit.

Secretary Donovan noted that the budget should be
applauded equally for exhibiting strong fiscal
discipline. For example, the proposed 2010 budget
consolidates or eliminates 27 programs and activities
that were found not to work.
More than dollars, the budget request summary, Road
Map for Transformation, reflects the return of the
federal government as a leader in making housing
affordable and investing in urban and rural
communities. Indeed, the summary reads like more of a
policy statement than a fiscal document and says the
administrations ultimate goal is to rebuild HUD as a
powerful agent for advancing not only national housing
objectives, but through housing, broader economic,
social, and energy goals as well.
The historic budget strives to achieve five inter-related
objectives:
1. Enable HUD to address the nations housing
and economic crisis through investment in
technology, staffing and training at the Federal
Housing Authority (FHA) so the agency will be
able to deal with the rising volume of mortgage
business, detect fraud and monitor the practices of
lenders and appraisers.
2. Restore federal leadership on promoting
affordable rental housing by capitalizing the
Housing Trust Fund, funding an additional 116,000
Section 8 vouchers, increasing funding for project-
based rental assistance, providing full funding for
public housing operating subsidies, and increasing
funding for Homeless Assistance Grants.
3. Invest strategically in rural and metropolitan
communities by fully funding the Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) program and
requiring performance accountability, and creation
of a Choice Neighborhoods Initiative that will
revitalize communities of high poverty through
transformative investments in housing and closer
linkages with school reform and early childhood
interventions.
4. Drive energy efficient housing and inclusive,
sustainable growth.
5. Transform the way that HUD does business by
setting aside 1 percent of the agencys budget for
research and evaluation, major demonstrations,
enhanced technical assistance and capacity
building, and next generation technology
investments.
Secretary Donovans positive influence on the
administrations housing policies is especially evident
in the expanded emphasis on research and the creation
of innovative models and programs. While it is truly
exciting to see HUD serving as a catalyst for the
development of more effective housing and community
development strategies, it is unclear how this
administration views the role of not-for-profit CDCs
and neighborhood-based housing groups in carrying out
its mission.
In two separate public forums attended by ANHD staff,
Secretary Donovan spoke in general terms about the
contributions that not-for-profit organizations make to
meeting the housing needs of working class residents.
Our challenge will be to not only secure resources for
core programs and building the capacity of the sector,
but more importantly, to exhibit to the Obama
administration that we are key partners in achieving the
Presidents goals. We are committed to spreading this
message and encouraged that for the first time in many
years there is a partner in Washington who is ready to
listen.

NEW STUDY FROM DHCR
The Division of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR)
has developed a Statewide Affordable Housing Needs
Study. Governor David A. Paterson said, this Study
represents a significant step forward in the way DHCR
develops its policies and implements its programs around
the State. DHCR Commissioner Deborah VanAmerongen
said that DHCR would use the Study, to better target
resources to address specific community needs. The
Study, and nine other regional reports, are available on the
DHCR website at www.nysdhcr.gov, under key
documents.
HOUSING VACANCY SURVEY
Housing Vacancy Survey results from the first quarter of
2009 indicate that the U.S. housing market continues to
undergo a significant transition, experiencing a rising
number and proportion of renters, and rising asking rents
even as the total number of vacant properties increases.
This is according to the US Census Bureau which
released these data on April 27. The proportion of renters
in the United States rose to 32.7 after reaching a historic
low of 30.8 in 2004. This represented an increase of
748,000 renters since the first quarter of 2008. In the
same period the number of homeowners declined by
203,000 households. The prices renters face in the
market also appear to be rising. The detailed tables of the
report show an increase in median asking rents for vacant
units, rising from $679 to $723 in the past year in constant
terms. The median home price declined from $192,900 to
$167,200. Data from the most recent and past Housing
Vacancy Surveys, a component of the Current Population
Survey can be found at:
