Public Notice: Housing Equity Plan Public Meeting Announcement

As a grant recipient of federal funds through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Hernando County has committed to Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) and making concerted efforts to combat housing discrimination against protected classes. The county is currently developing a Housing Equity Plan which examines barriers to fair housing and identifies priorities and goals to mitigate fair housing issues as required under the federal Fair Housing Act and state and local law.

Residents, housing and homeless partners, non-profit service providers, neighborhood associations, realtors, lending institutions, developers, and other stakeholders are encouraged to join us to help identify community assets and fair housing strengths and gaps to determine potential fair housing issues in Hernando County and the best course of action for resolving any impediments to fair housing choice, particularly for protected class groups.

Hernando County is committed to a policy of non-discrimination in all county programs, services and activities, and will provide reasonable accommodations upon request. These public meetings will be held in locations that are accessible to individuals with disabilities. Reasonable accommodations will be made for individuals with disabilities or persons with Limited English Proficiency requiring auxiliary aids or services. Persons needing a special accommodation to participate in any proceeding should contact Veda Ramirez, Director of Housing and Suportive Services, at (352) 540-4338 or VRamirez@co.hernando.fl.us.
