SCAG has been granted $47 million in Regional Early Action
Planning (REAP) funding from Assembly Bill (AB) 101 to administer
RHNA and provide housing planning and process improvement
services to cities and counties. SCAG is setting aside
approximately $23 million, or 50 percent, of its REAP funding,
for the Subregional Partnership Program, which will fund a call
for projects from subregional partners that augment local SB 2
and LEAP activities. Funding allocation for this program will be
based on the final RHNA allocation. The first date to file
applications is September 17, 2020 and an intent to apply must be
submitted by September 30, 2020. All applications must be
submitted by December 1, 2020. Eligible projects for funding
include, for example, housing element preparation, temporary
staffing assistance for housing-related work, and accessory
dwelling unit ordinances. All projects from this program must be
completed by June 30, 2023.
