RESOLUTION AMENDING CITY
IN-LIEU RENTER ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
WHEREAS, by Resolution 88-51 adopted February 1988, the City Council
adopted operational proceedings for the' Renter Assistance Program; and
WHEREAS, after several months of operation, Novato Ecumenical Housing,
the organization which operates the program for the City, advises that the
requirement that program participants spend no more than 50 percent of
their gross income for rent is too restrictive given high rent levels, thus
limiting participation by too many otherwise qualified low income households .
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that partipating households may now
allocate up to 75 (seventy-five) percent of gross household income to rent
(including utilities) .
