downloaded through the HUD Web page REAC system. This will allow the HRA easy access to the
plan and simplify the process in its Annual Update. A full copy of the draft plan with attachments and
supporting documents will be available for review at the Columbia Heights HRA office, 590 40~h
Avenue NE., Columbia Heights, Minnesota.

agency plan.
