Fresno Housing Authority
The Fresno Housing Authority joint boards of commissioners make decisions that govern Fresno Housing, which provides housing for nearly 50,000 low-income residents throughout Fresno County. Fresno Housing is governed by 14 commissioners, seven of whom are appointed as city commissioners and seven as county commissioners.
Meetings usually occur at 5:30 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of each month at 1260 Fulton Street in Fresno. They are also available to join by Zoom.
Who are the Fresno Housing Commissioners:
City Board-
Adrian Jones, Chairperson Stacy Vaillancourt, Vice Chair
The commissioners approved a $3.9 million contract and extended an emergency housing agreement for five years, learned about proposed upgrades for properties throughout the Valley and heard concerns about residents losing their housing when entering rehab.
Since too many commissioners were absent, all items on the agenda were continued, but public comments were heard, which included concerns about housing vouchers, lack of security at shelters and displacement of people residing in closing shelters.
The commissioners approved the 2021 year-end financials, a repair services agreement for the Parkway Inn shelter and it was announced that Chief Business Officer Emily De La Guerra will be leaving the agency in July.
The commissioners received an update on the agency’s strategic diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives and an update on real estate development activities.
