12 FINAL CDBG PLAN 05-06-96
NO. 12 5-6-96 ! n t e r- C o rn DATE: MAY 6, 1996 TO: WILLIAM A. HUSTON, CITY MANAGE'R FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT SUBJECT: FINAL CDBG ONE-YEAR ACTION PLAN FOR FY 1996-97 RECOMMENDATION That the City Council: Adopt the Final Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) One-Year Action Plan, and authorize its submittal to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for review and approval. FISCAL IMPACT The adoption of the proposed Action Plan will not have a fiscal impact on the City. Council adoption of the Action Plan and subsequent HUD approval will enable the City to receive federal Community Development Block Grant funds. Receipt of CDBG funds reduces the expenditure of City funds for projects (e.gv public improvements, public services etc.) that benefit low- and moderate- income households throughout the City. BACKGROUND On April 1, 1996, the'City Council held a public hearing to obtain citizen input and comments on the use of fiscal year 1996-97 CDBG funds for inclusion into the draft One-Year Action Plan. The Plan serves as the application to HUD for CDBG funds. On February 28, 1996, prior to the development of the Action Plan, a public meeting/hearing was held by the Ad Hoc Citizen Participation Committee to identify Tustin's housing and community needs. On March 22, 1996, Notice of the Availability of the draft City Council Report Final CDBG One-Action Plan May 6, 1996 Page 2 One-Year Action Plan was published in a local newspaper of general circulation, thereby initiating a 30-day comment period on the document. The public comment period closed April 22, 1996. No comments on the Plan were received. Changes made to the draft One-Year Action Plan include the addition of maps defining eligible project areas, location of funded activities, and the correction of minor typographical errors. CONCLUSION Staff has prepared the final One-Year Action Plan according to HUD regulations, including those detailing required citizen participation. On or before May 15, 1996, 45 days prior to the starting of the funding year, the adopted Action Plan will be submitted to HUD. The 1996-97 Fiscal Year for the CDBG program will begin July 1, 1996.

If applicant is delinquent on any Federal debt, attach an explanation: B. Resources There are numerous potential sources of funding which might enable the City of Tustin to address priority hoUsing and .~ommunity development needs and specific objectives identified in the Strategic Plan ~0mponent of the Consolidated Plan. However, actual financial resources currently available to the City are somewhat limited. A variety of resources must be used to ultimately attain the goals and objectives of the City, as described in the Consolidated Plan. Throughout the fiscal year, the City will continue to pursue additional funding opportunities when available. The City's goal is to leverage, to the maximum extent feasible, the use of available. federal, state, local funds with private monies in the' creation of viable communities, development of affordable housing, and the maintenance and preservation of existing housing. To ensure the financial feasibility of a project, the City will consider the utilization of funds from other sources, such as Redevelopment Housing Set-Aside Funds, to further affordable housing and community development goals whenever a match, grant or loan is necessary or appropriate. The City of Tustin does not currently own property which is available to be used for provision of' housing and suitable living environments or expanding economic opportunities primarily for Iow- and moderate-income persons.

Ce Activities to be Undertaken Table III-A in the City of Tustin's Consolidated Plan prioritizes housing and community development needs and estimates the funding amounts needed to address those needs during the five-year period covered by the plan-(July 1, 1995 to June 30, 2000). It is unrealistic that CDBG monies allocated to the City for the 1996~97 funding year could address all of the community's priority needs. Instead, allocations are focused toward specific projects to produce tangible community benefits. Needs rated by the community as high priorities and Tustin's Fiscal Year 1996-97 strategy to meet those needs are as follows: · Housing Needs Housing needs in Tustin are addressed through expenditure of a variety of resources. Housing programs currently assisted by the City include: Use of Redevelopment Project Area Housing Set-Aside Funds to finance rental multi-family and owner-occupied single-family rehabilitation loan and gram programs. -7- New for-sale housing projects assisted with Housing Set-Aside Funds, Mortgage Credit Certificate Program, administered through the County of Orange providing homeownership opportunities for moderate-income persons. '~ Additional strategies the City supports to address housing needs include: Continue to provide opportunities for affordable granny flats and secondary residential dwelling units in the single-family residential district lots through existing Zoning Ordinance provisions. Continue to require developers "converting apartments to condominiums to process a use permit, provide relocation assistance, and/or to provide incentives and assistance for purchase of the units by low- and moderate-income households. Continue to encourage the County to continue its contract under the "Urban County" program for the provision of counseling and dispute resolution services by the Fair Housing Council. Require appropriate deed restrictions to ensure continued affordability for low- or moderate-income housing constructed or rehabilitated with the assistance of any public or Redevelopment Agency funds, as may be legally required by the use of such funds. Allocate available CDBG and Redevelopment Agency funds to finance both public improvements and rehabilitation of residential units in target areas within the City. Continue the provision of services by the Orange County Fair Housing Council to the City of Tustin to assure equal housing opportunities within the City. Complaints are referred to the agency. Provide referrals to the Orange County Housing Authority where necessary for the development and operation of federally assisted low- and moderate-income housing programs. Ensure that processing, of permits for low- and moderate-income housing are fast-tracked with low and moderate income housing permits being given priority over other permit applications. Encourage 'the availability of Section 8 rental assistance certificates and voucher certificate program assistance funds through Orange County Housing Authority. -8- Encourage the maintenance of existing and establishment of new certificates, support the County's efforts to obtain continued Federal funding. ':~ .._: Monitor the implementation of the affordable housing program adopted as 'a part of the East Tustin Specific Plan. -~ Utilize 20% housing set-aside funds as subsidies (i.e., land write dOwns, acquisition and rehabilitation assistance grants and loans, etc.) from the South/Central Redevelopment Project to reduce the affordability gap for developing new and rehabilitating existing owner and renial units for low- and moderate-income households. Continue to provide housing referral services to families in need of housing assistance and information. This program consists of three City departments disseminating information, fo the public at all times. * Preserve existing assisted housing. Public Facility Needs Youth centers, neighborhood facilities, child care centers, parks and recreational facilities. Previous yeaff s CDBG funds and Redevelopment Project Area monies are allocated to a youth center project. Funding is also provided for park planning. Infrastructure Improvements Street and sidewalk improvements. Substantial funding for infrastruCture improvements in low- and moderate- income areas is provided. Public Service Needs Senior services, youth services, employment, crime awareness, child care services. Funding is provided to organizations which directly benefit 'low- and moderate-income persons through the provision of senior meal and care- home ombudsman services, youth counseling, recreation and shelters, and a drug court program.. Although the provision of homeless services was not a highly rated community need, w'e understand that this is a regional priority. Therefore, the City is also. supporting a transitional living center -9- for homeless women with children, an emergency shelter program for the disabled and a regional shelter network. Economic Development Needs · Commercial - Industrial infrastructure, needs. other economic developinent Funding is provided for commercial and industrial building rehabilitation which may result in increased employment opportunities and availability of goods and services for low- and moderate-income persons residing in the project area. Other Community Development Needs o Code enforcement Funding is provided for code enforcement activities focused in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. Planning Planning Funding is provided for a park master plan and a business development plan to improve the living environment of a low- and moderate-income area.

Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities Statistical data, including the 1990 census and data maintained by the Tustin Police Department, indicate that hometessness is not a major· factor in our community. Nevertheless, it is recognized tha~ homelessness is a regional issue for which the City of Tustin must provide a "fair share~' of services to address the needs of the homeleSS. Each year Tustin has allocated the maximum allowable amount of its CDBG funds to public service programs. For the 1996-97 fiscal year, the following organizations providing homeless services have been selected for funding: TABLE 4' LISTING OF HOMELESS AND OTHER SPECIAL NEEDS ACTIVITIES FOR FY 1996-97.
