Grand Jury: City of Davis was careless with DACHA

The 2010-2011 Yolo County Grand Jury has recently completed its report on the City of Davis Affordable Housing Program. The Grand Jury investigated allegations regarding the administration of the affordable housing program in Davis. The Grand Jury found that over time the City has successfully evolved an affordable housing program that currently ensures fairness in the selection process and retains rental properties and some homes in the program. Approximately 700 low and moderate income households achieved home ownership through the program since its inception about 20 years ago. However, the City was far less successful with the Davis Area Cooperative Housing Authority (DACHA). DACHA encountered practical and affordability problems from the outset and currently no longer exists as an entity. Among other conclusions, the Grand Jury found that greater care should have been taken initially by the City and the Redevelopment Agency when performing legal analysis of documents such as DACHA’s articles of incorporation and bylaws and that better initial oversight of DACHA by the City could have prevented this situation. The Yolo County Grand Jury functions as a citizen ‘watchdog’ organization to review the operations and performance of county and city governments, school districts, and special districts. Based on these assessments, the Grand Jury publishes its findings and may recommend constructive action to improve the quality and effectiveness of local government. The public can access the full Davis Affordable Housing report and the six reports released in April at the Grand Jury website: http://www.yolocounty.org/index.aspx?page=780. The Grand Jury will release an additional report next week, May 23rd. The last four investigative reports and the final published volume containing all twelve reports for the year will be issued on June 30. The Grand Jury investigated allegations of unfairness and misuse of public funds in the administration of the affordable housing program in the City of Davis (the City). The Grand Jury found that the City’s efforts and policies administering affordable housing evolved over the past 30 years. The City’s original vision was to allow low and moderate income households to achieve home ownership equity without restrictions on the resale value of the properties. There was no lottery procedure to select potential buyers and no open bid procedures to select potential developers.
