These errors were made due to changes in how the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) defines the terms that describe various income ranges. Depending upon the Federal program, HUD is using;one of two different sets of terms or labels for the same income ranges. The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 defined the most commonly used labels for income ranges. This ` Act defines low-income households as earning up to 50 percent of median income and moderate-income households as earning between 50 and 80 percent. However, in 1990 the National Affordable Housing Act(NAHA)defined these income groups differently. The big change between the two Act's terminology is that in the 1974 Act households earning up to 80 percent of median income are termed moderate-income, but m the 1990 Act households;earning up to 80`percent of median are,def ned as low-tncame, ;HUD contuiues to.use:the 1974 income terminology for its + omm Development Block Grant (CDB. program The errors`in Kent's Needs Assessment come from its occasional use of HUM 1'990 special U,S. Census report that used th&VAHA#ern�inoio ,;.;The s ec al:re ort never defines its income terminolo Since>the,xe ort gY P P 9Y P is used by the CDBG program; it was assumed that its income group labels reflected the 1974 Act's definitions, This error was oily discovered after extensively examining and comparing the report's specialised data to other more generalized reports. This difference in defiiutions has resulted in the Needs Assessment engendering a very different perception of the income levels of Kent residents. For instance, the Needs Assessment.in some cases refers to those earning up to$0 percent of median income as "low-income instead of its more commonly used 'term of "low- and moderate-income". To correct any misunderstandings and to have the document --)nsistently use the 1974 Act's definition,;the following changes need to be made. 1) Page 1, under the heading, INCOME. On the first line change "low-income or very low-income" to "low- and moderate-income" The first line should read: "Over 40 percent of Kent's households are low- and moderate-income, of which 20 percent are low-income." 2) Page 2, under the heading, HOUSING. On the last line change "41" to "20". The clause should read "not to the 20 percenuof our households that are lower.income," 3) Page 21 in the third paragraph, first sentence. In the first sentence change "Over half" to "Just over 40 percent , then change 3ust over 40 percent to half , and . number evenly to number almost ...... .... Fo =on ercen of ent s households'are'moderate-%ncome an.... . event "; ;The sentence should read. e t y rty P . . , below :with half bf that number;almost evem divide etween' ow-;an ve ow-income ouse ,o s. �, t, t, Th 4 Pa e 27 iin<the fourth ara rah 5:th:line.. :Chan e wer;40 to Twee e,sentemce should'read: g P g P g t3' "Twenty percent of our households cannot be ignored " 5) Page 28 under item number 3. Change "41 to ''20". The parenthetical clause should read: "(which now comprise 20 percent of the population)" ` tit Page 52 in the second paragraph, first line. Change "41 to "20". The sentence should read: : "As mentioned previously :in this report, 20 percent of Kent's households are low-income or very low- income.
