As a requirement of receiving Community Development Block Grant funds, the city must take steps to assure that discriminatory actions, either explicit or implicit, that constrain the choices of people to procure adequate housing are being identified and mitigated. As such, the City published the 2019-2023 Analysis of Impediments (AI) to Fair Housing Choice.
