Cathedral City Wants Your Input on Fair Housing

Cathedral City Wants Your Input on Fair Housing

The Fair Housing Act of 1968 prohibits housing discrimination based on of race, color, religion, sex, familial status, national origin, or disability. On July 8, 2015, H.U.D. released “Affirmatively Further Fair Housing Choice” which is a final rule requiring jurisdictions and public housing agencies (PHAs) receiving federal funds to (1) affirmatively further fair housing, (2) take steps to actively overcome historic patterns of segregation and (3) promote fair housing choice.

The City of Cathedral City asks that you take the survey from the hyperlink below. The purpose of this survey is to give residents an opportunity for involvement in the development of a standardized fair housing assessment and planning process relating to issues of fair housing within the City. A “fair housing issue” is defined as “a condition that restricts choice or access to opportunity, including:

• Ongoing local or regional segregation, or lack of integration.
• Racial or ethnic concentrations of poverty.
• Significant disparities in access to opportunity.
• Disproportionate housing needs based on the “protected classes” of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability.
• Evidence of illegal discrimination or violations of civil rights laws, regulations, or guidance.

Please take a few minutes to fill out this online survey. Your participation will give the City a more effective means to affirmatively further the purposes of the Fair Housing Act. All answers will be kept confidential. Please press “submit” when completed. Thank You!
