Because such a plan goes beyond political boundary Iunits ti.e., county or city), ch areawide approach is necessary. In the past, such plans have been labeled fair share plans, housing allocation plans, or housing dispersal plans. The need for such a plan is predicated cn the assumpi i on that an even distribution of low incci^o housing puts less strain o-: each cor:mun i ty l s i of restructure w i t-h i n the area of thy. r HOP. The pur- pose of plan is to increase low income housing; opportunities in order to rcLch •the goo! of even distribution. The plan itself does not ii ors :, fannies to rove, but offers them the choice of a dc:gt.a t o hou:;ins in areas prr'viously t oiproviding such oi)por't'uni t ies.

"SUPPORTIVE DOCUMENTS FOLLOW" TheTo L fOt ;HOP ..In. $ ut'h ,r IW Ld t The Council has three reasons for supportincg. the AHOP: (1) the plan a forum for regional housing plena hg efforts, (2) there is need for tnot-e low and moderato income housing ih the Region, and (3) the plah offers the potential for reducing vacancies in the private housing market. Out region contains hore than 25 organizations which are concerned with low and roderate Income housing. ih working with these agencies to develop and implement en AHCP, the Council would continue to improve its capability to coordinate housing planning efforts in the region. Furthermore, these efforts would enable the participcnts to receive supplemental Section 8 monies available cn l y to members of an AHCP reccr_n i zed by the U.S. Depart- ment of Housing and Urban Development. The additional monies could provide families with the funds necessary to provide some stimulus for ihe housing market. f,s noted in the Federal i?cgi ,ter, Vol. 41, too. 122, Wednesday, Jur.e 23, 1976 (p. 25?65) suepler-ntel Section 8 housing assistance funds shall be made avalle:blo to each participant in an AHOP cn ihe following basis: no less than 20 percent nor more thun 50 percent of the Section 8 funds in addition to those previously allocated for FY 76.
