Locunity/La Quinta, CA·Other
The Housing Commission (HC), established in 2009, is a five-member advisory body appointed by the Housing Authority and coordinated by the City Clerk's Office. Its primary functions are to review and make recommendations on all matters that come before the Housing Authority prior to Housing Authority action, except emergency matters and matters which the Housing Authority excludes from HC review. The Housing section within the City Manager's Office coordinates the Commission and assists with agenda preparation, conducts quarterly meetings, and advises commissioners on all matters that require action by the Housing Authority.
