HOUSING ACTION PLAN (HAP)
The Housing Action Plan (HAP) for fiscal years 2005-2009 was adopted in June 2004 and serves as the framework for the allocation of scarce resources to address the most critical housing needs in the community. The HAP has two main goals:

· To maximize investment towards providing quality affordable housing to as many City residents with the greatest housing needs as possible
· To revitalize and stabilize Long Beach neighborhoods

The city of Long Beach has identified three focus areas where public investment in housing and neighborhood improvements are seen as essential. They are as follows: The Washington School Focus Area, the Central Focus Area, and the North Long Beach King School Focus Area.
