The Public Housing Agency (PHA) Plan is a comprehensive guide to a public housing agency's policies, programs, operations and strategies for meeting local housing needs and goals.
There are two parts to the PHA Plan including the 5-Year Plan, submitted by PHA's to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) every fifth PHA fiscal year, and the Annual Plan, submitted to HUD once every year.
PHA's that administer public housing or the Housing Choice Voucher Program are required to submit a PHA Plan. This document also serves as the application for the Capital Fund Program, the funding source for operation and maintenance of public housing units.

In 2005, the CDA commissioned this comprehensive assessment of Dakota County's housing needs. The assessment was prepared for the CDA by Maxfield Research, Inc. The assessment projects housing demand for each community and township in Dakota County through 2030 and provides recommendations on the amount and types of housing (owner and rental) that will be needed to satisfy demand from current and future residents.
The assessment estimates that due to estimated job growth and changes in housing preferences, there will be a demand for 80,000 housing units in Dakota County by 2030. Of those, nearly 8,000 will need to be affordable to low- and moderate-income households.
