The board approved a resolution adopting the updated plan, which the agency said will take effect on June 1 of the current fiscal year.

\"We had to update our full administrative plan,\" said Mary Ann Truso, executive director, explaining the changes required by HOTMA and the agency’s approach to implementation. Truso told the board that some HOTMA elements cannot be implemented immediately because HUD systems and the CDA’s software vendor have not yet completed necessary updates.

Key changes included in the revised plan that the board approved:

- Retaining annual reexaminations for existing voucher households rather than moving eligible households to biannual or triennial reviews; Truso said the CDA chose annual reviews because its program is small and annual contact is easier to manage.

- A provision that income increases that raise a household’s adjusted income by less than 10% will not trigger an interim reexamination, reducing administrative churn for households with modest income changes.

- An expanded income definition to capture irregular and \"gig\" income and a revised approach to streamline income determination by considering prior-12-month earnings for current participants while using prospective income determination for new admissions.

- An asset limit applied to new admissions; assets under $50,000 may be self-certified for certain asset types. Truso said she recommended that the asset limitation not be applied retroactively to current participants.

Truso said the agency published a public hearing notice more than 45 days in advance and that the draft revised administrative plan was posted online and made available at the CDA office; she reported the agency received no public comments by the published deadline.

The board opened and closed the public hearing during the meeting and then approved a resolution adopting the revisions. The transcript does not record a mover or seconder for the resolution; the motion carried.

The CDA said it will implement elements of the plan as HUD and the CDA’s software vendor allow. Truso said the agency worked with a consultant on the changes and will bring additional administrative adjustments to the board as software and federal system updates permit.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Patchogue CDA Board Meeting June 5, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Patchogue Village Community Development Agency on June 5 adopted revisions to its Housing Choice Voucher administrative plan intended to comply with the Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act (HOTMA) of 2016.","taxTitle","Patchogue, Suffolk County, New York","taxId",69905,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6207424,"Patchogue schedules South Ocean Avenue accessibility ramps; drainage work planned near library",128,594000,722000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3754813-48a2da3f5eeb3c85e635c84735698e6d&start=594&end=722","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3754813-48a2da3f5eeb3c85e635c84735698e6d/thumbnail_594000.jpg","/articles/6207424/Patchogue/Suffolk-County/New-York/Patchogue-schedules-South-Ocean-Avenue-accessibility-ramps-drainage-work-planned-near-library","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6207424-f0d5a02db08895f51c6b340eac273c2a/orig.mp4?Expires=1770959990&Signature=CaUW13GqQ4HD7tZshndgbMV7Sv9PgSaF33gWU88QikLGKvAEeVy~Wp4LKEhsP9bA4ihIZxpUc-asRyLUrgBl8NU-~CF4QA74-VT-q9kZgtJYdaMmngLc9dnXCRZYOjNXC43wjEQv-sO3mGFHio~Gh4JzibLA7YXOZnWQeeC538Nb9xFr9iLfdSWGPC~CoKv6eqc8FaH9f6RkzyJtwnfcMwKHFnbk0GAagrWzm0FQBrrDhyP2mo1N87foH8z4N82ic0TQs7fEMz9uwlTn1OLiGZ-bCSsU7QX1bW6o4Y~LuhJisqc9YimpmGULwvjpPw5fl8NaGuC4uB8WLu5vgCiyoA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Patchogue Village Community Development Agency on June 5 said contractor work to install accessibility ramps on South Ocean Avenue is scheduled to begin June 16 and that the agency will notify nearby homeowners before work starts.

\"Bridal is scheduled to start on June, so a week from this Monday,\" said a staff member reporting on the ramp project. The CDA said letters to affected homeowners are prepared and will be mailed once the contractor confirms a timeline.

The board discussed coordination with other utility work in the village. Members noted heavy Verizon activity on nearby streets and said the presence of service trucks could affect staging and traffic control but did not indicate a formal schedule change.

Agency staff also reported drainage improvements near the Patchogue library at roughly the same time the walkway work was underway. A staff member said crews will install a drainage pit and \"pervious pavement\" at the site to reduce a recurring puddle on the walkway.

No formal vote was required; the board received the construction schedule and directed staff to proceed with resident notifications. Details about traffic control plans, the exact number of properties to be notified and the estimated project duration were not provided at the meeting.","The Patchogue CDA reported the South Ocean Avenue curb-ramp work will begin June 16 and described concurrent drainage work at the library using pervious pavement and a drainage pit to address standing water.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6207429,"Patchogue walkway arch work resumes after buried slab discovery; engineering invoice approved",297,306000,603000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3754813-48a2da3f5eeb3c85e635c84735698e6d&start=306&end=603","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3754813-48a2da3f5eeb3c85e635c84735698e6d/thumbnail_306000.jpg","/articles/6207429/Patchogue/Suffolk-County/New-York/Patchogue-walkway-arch-work-resumes-after-buried-slab-discovery-engineering-invoice-approved","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6207429-c7a9f6ff98b6956f105702892c7cb5ac/orig.mp4?Expires=1770959990&Signature=bLi-VytpsGCCFk6Ntd99UwtBZoK52CBoEf-IH4WFHG7NOCxLBAij8pW6h76HrU9un1Nq~l0kScDxQ~U~PdOmn2TSDWRjGbfHjwaxWVopZIReE2Qcjxc1GjBcAmJ-aDRa79sdihsl3EZ8hos5uxzuvIrwU3R0hN8qskluEJOdDC-m7r97XJjE7lpk8Qe-Q02eMf8DDUvOlptqKwuuTjYVYxiuujOod5pfHr0MHezrFvUOxOJlY0lqwfAdJGQP4yde0eOeSE5kfQ7HQkEEWNFcgb~sKxeLB~nQ~~HpVv4InKQYhz5I8ukxl3Ho5Pe25e6~sFex8ewM6ZWwQQIJUbz2xQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Patchogue Village Community Development Agency members were told June 5 that work on the Theater Walkway arch has resumed after crews encountered an unexpected concrete slab and that the board approved payment for part of the project’s engineering work.

\"I'm happy to report, progress has begun on the Theater Walkway arch,\" said David Sharpler, a staff member who described fieldwork that began in May and resumed after engineers devised a plan to work around the buried slab. Sharpler said a footing slab has been prepared and that installation of the poles should follow after a three- to four-week curing period.

The work is funded through the CDA’s community development allocation for the project. Sharpler said contractors will hold a site meeting in June, scheduled for 9 a.m. on a day the contractor and engineers will confirm next steps for stanchions and the archway. He told the board he expects the arch to be installed before the end of the month and that the agency will coordinate a small dedication ceremony.

During construction crews found a concrete slab about a foot below grade that was not picked up on the site survey. Sharpler said engineers returned to the site to develop a workaround and that the discovery delayed the schedule by about a week. \"There might have to be a change order. It shouldn't be much. ... It could be a few $100 more,\" he said.

The board approved payment of an invoice from LYRO Engineering for $6,600 for services performed through Jan. 31. The agenda had listed an incorrect figure, and the invoice attachment shown to the board reflected the $6,600 amount. A motion to approve the invoice was made and carried; the transcript does not identify a mover or seconder.

Sharpler said the contractor or the village may be asked to cover any small additional costs if a change order is required. \"If there was a change order, we could go to the village to ask,\" he said.

No further formal actions were taken at the meeting on the arch beyond the invoice approval and the scheduling of the site meeting.

Details about the contract balance, exact change-order estimate and the planned date for the dedication were not specified at the meeting.","The Patchogue Village Community Development Agency reported resumed work on the CDBG-funded Theater Walkway arch after crews discovered an unexpected concrete slab.

The board approved payment of an annual maintenance invoice for the agency’s case-management software in the amount of $13,748.49. A motion to pay the invoice was made and carried; the transcript does not identify a mover or seconder.

The board also approved raising the hourly rate for Adriana Gonquette, a shared staff member, to $20 per hour. \"So can I have a motion to approve the increase to $20 an hour for Adriana? Motion. ... The increase is approved,\" the chair announced after the vote.

Members discussed an annual public-authority board evaluation, reporting requirements to the state and the need to reestablish two standing committees — governance and audit — that the agency is required to have. Executive director Mary Ann Truso said she will train recently appointed board member David on public-authority compliance and will bring a report of accomplishments and a revised mission-measurement report to the July meeting for review.

The board voted to move its regularly scheduled July meeting from July 3 to July 10 to avoid the Independence Day holiday and directed staff to publish the change in the Advance and post it on the agency website. Board members asked staff to reach out to remaining nonresponsive members to confirm availability.

No votes to change policy or adopt new programs were taken in this portion of the meeting. The board asked staff to prepare the governance and audit committee schedules and to present updated policy and charter items at a future meeting.","At its June 5 meeting the Patchogue CDA approved a $13,748.49 annual maintenance invoice for the agency’s software, raised a shared staff member’s pay to $20 per hour, and voted to move the July meeting from July 3 to July 10.
