Presentation on Fair Housing

 

Staff Summary

                     Lake County, as a recipient of CDBG and other federal funds, is required to “affirmatively further fair housing.”

                     As a result of a recent lawsuit against Westchester County, NY, the interpretation of “affirmatively furthering fair housing” has changed.

                     The Fair Housing Center of Lake County, along with Metropolitan Housing Development Corporation and the John Marshall Law School, will make a presentation on this new interpretation, its impact on Lake County, and potential solutions.
