2010 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice

The purpose of the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) is to address barriers to fair housing within the Urbana community. To meet the requirements of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 and the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, any community receiving entitlement funding is required to submit certification of its efforts to affirmatively further fair housing. The last Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) was developed in 2003, and much has changed since then. 

This report serves as a summary of the most recent analysis performed by the Grants Management Division and is followed by recommendations for future actions needed to remove these barriers. As a recipient of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership Program funds, the City of Urbana will perform the following tasks:

1. Conduct an analysis to identify impediments to fair housing choice within the jurisdiction
2. Take appropriate actions to overcome the effects of any impediments identified
3. Maintain records reflecting the analysis and actions in this regard
