What happened

The council approved the Richmond Housing Authority's $4.7 million budget that includes a $352,000 city subsidy. The housing authority manages 783 affordable housing units but receives inadequate federal funding to cover operations.

The council also approved routine Housing Authority business items on consent. Both housing-related votes passed unanimously.

Two additional housing authority items received no vote and were likely continued to a future meeting. These included increasing a legal contract by $75,000 for tenant evictions and authorizing an application for federal funding to improve Richmond Village operations.
