HaUSING JUNE, 1980 METROPOLITAN HOUSING SUBSIDY ALLOCATION The Metropolitan Council has adopted a Subsidized Housing Allocation Plan to help achieve the goal of increasing locational choice for low and moderate income households throughout the area. To accomplish this, the Council has determined priority areas to assist in the distribution of allocated units. Orono, due to its level of services and facilities has been designated a third priority community and based upon this, has been allocated a modest amount of subsidized units. On February 28, 1980, the Metropolitan Council adopted a new allocation procedure for subsidized housing unite for the period J980 - 1983. The formula has changed whereby a dollar amount for different subsidized housing programs has been allocated to each communi^-y. These allocations were made on the basis of total census population and projected population growth. No adjustment was made in consideration of Orono's limited urban area or limited urban service capability. The following table indicates the dollar amounts allocated to Orono along with the preferred usage for those funds as determined by the Metropolitan Council, and as revised by Orono to reflect only our urban population percentage: only 58% of Orono*s population and 59% of Orono*s households are located within the Urban Service Area.
