The Cranston Gonzales Affordable Housing Act allows for local governments that are geographically contiguous to form a consortium for the purposes of receiving an allocation of and participating in the HOME Investment Partnerships Program. The purpose of the HOME program, administered by HUD, is to strengthen public-private partnerships to increase the supply of affordable housing. Maricopa County HOME Consortium receives an annual allocation of HOME funds from HUD. HOME program activities are administered by the Maricopa County Human Services Department, Housing and Community Development Division. HOME funds are used to provide affordable housing needs of residents within the Consortium service area boundaries. If Maricopa County elected to opt out of the Consortium, it would result in the dissolution of the Consortium, and may result in a partial or complete loss of HOME funds for the remaining Consortium member cities/towns. The Agreement will be effective for Federal Fiscal Years 2021-2023. Consortium members had the opportunity to opt out of the Consortium prior to the automatic renewal date, however all members chose to remain a part of the Consortium. The Consortium members will be able to utilize HOME funds through separate Intergovernmental Agreements with Maricopa County for their local strategic community development and housing goals.
