TO: WILLIAM HUSTON, CITY MANAGER
FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: FY 2006-07 ACTION PLAN AND PROPOSED USE OF COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) FUNDS
SUMMARY
The Community Development Department is proposing to submit to HUD a FY 2006-07
Action Plan which describes the activities that the City will undertake during the program
year and the program budget for disbursement of Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) funds.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 06-39 approving the proposed use of
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for inclusion in the One-year
Action Plan for Fiscal Year 2006-07.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed 2006-07 programs and expenditures will be implemented with CDBG
funds. No impacts to the General Fund are anticipated.
- OVERVIEW OF ONE-YEAR ACTION PLAN
The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, established the
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program to return federal funds to local
communities for the purpose of developing viable urban communities by providing
decent housing, suitable living environments, and by expanding economic opportunities,
specifically for low- and moderate -income persons.
To participate in the CDBG program, each jurisdiction is required to prepare a
Consolidated Plan ("The Plan"), a five-year planning document intended to identify a
jurisdiction's overall needs for affordable and supportive housing, community

development, public services, and economic opportunities. The Plan also outlines a
five-year strategy for addressing those needs and identifies resources and programs
which might assist in meeting these goals. The City's Consolidated Plan was adopted
in May of 2005 and covers Fiscal Years 2005 - 2010.
A section of the Consolidated Plan, called the one-year Action Plan, serves as the City's
application to HUD for CDBG program funding. The City must submit an Action Plan
annually to receive the entitlement money. The purpose of the Action Plan is to detail
how the City will spend its annual allocation of funds to meet community needs
identified in the Consolidated Plan. This Action Plan, as required by federal regulations,
must be available for public review for a period of not less than 30 days. The City
advertised the availability of this document in the Tustin News. The review period
began on March 2, 2006, and ended on March 31, 2006. No public comments were
received. This document may be amended based on the City Council's action at this
meeting. HUD mandates that the Action Plan must be submitted no later than May 15,
2006.
BACKGROUND/OVERVIEW OF CDBG PROGRAM REGULATIONS
The City will receive $829,464 of CDBG funds for Fiscal Year 2006-07. These funds are
allocated on a formula basis to cities to carry out activities that provide opportunities to
develop viable urban communities. Communities are permitted to develop their own
programs and funding priorities, as long as each activity meets one of the three CDBG
National Objectives. These objectives are as follows:
1) Benefit low- and moderate -income persons;
2) Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight; or
3) Meet community development needs having a particular
urgency (conditions that pose serious or immediate threat to
the health or welfare of the community where other sources
of funding are not available).
The program requires that at least 70 percent of the total CDBG annual expenditures
must be used for activities that benefit low- and moderate -income persons over a one-,
two-, or three-year period, and individual activities designed to benefit low- and
moderate -income persons must assist at least 51 percent of low- and moderate -income
persons.
To assure that activities will meet the National Objectives, HUD established guidelines
for Eligible and Ineligible activities. Eligible activities include:
• Housing -related type of activities
• Removal of Architectural Barriers to Public Facilities
• Rehabilitation and Preservation Activities
• Public Facilities and Improvements
FY 2006-07 Action Plan
April 17, 2006
Page 3
• Public Services Activities
• Economic Development Activities
• Planning and Program Administration, etc.
The program limits the amount of allocation for Public Services activities and Program
Administration. A maximum of 15 percent (15% x $829,464 = $124,419) of the total
grant award may be allocated to Public Service types of activities. A maximum of 20
percent (20% x $829,464 = $165,892) of the total grant award may be expended on
administrative and planning activities.
EVALUATION OF FUNDING REQUESTS
In November of 2005, the City published a Notice of Availability of Funding Application
(NOFA) of CDBG funds in the Tustin News and also sent application packages to over
100 non-profit organizations and the City of Tustin's various departments.
As a result of the NOFA, 17 applications were submitted totaling $1,269,449 in funding
requests. The requests received consisted of $225,347 from the Public Services (non-
profits) category and $1,044,102 from the Non -Public Services category. The request
for the Public Services Category exceeded the maximum allowable allocation by
$100,928 or 181 percent. Other requests are within the allowable allocation.
In February 2006, an In-house CDBG Project Review Committee evaluated and ranked
the Public Services funding requests. The In-house Project Review Committee is
comprised of representatives from various City Departments (Parks and Recreation,
Public Works/Engineering, Community Development, Finance, and the City Manager's
Office). The City Council's direction and the criteria, identified as Attachment 3, were
used in the selection process. Funding recommendations of the In-house Project
Review Committee were transmitted to the Citizen Participation Committee (CPC) for
their review.
On February 15, 2006, the City held a public meeting/hearing (first of the two required
public hearings) and invited all interested organizations and citizens to participate in the
CDBG process. The public meeting/hearing was conducted by the Citizen Participation
Committee comprised of chairpersons of the City's Planning Commission, Parks and
Recreation Commission, Historic Resource Advisory Committee, Senior Advisory
Committee, Audit Committee, and two members at large appointed by the City Council.
The purpose of the meeting/hearing was to review, evaluate, and make a
recommendation to the City Council on the disbursement of the FY 2006-07 CDBG
funds. At this meeting the Committee concurred with the In -House Committee
recommendation with the exception of allocations for the Boys and Girls Club and the
program coordinator position for the Tustin Family and Youth Center. The CPC
suggested a reduction of $5,000 from the Tustin Family Youth Center Coordinator
recommended allocation and a $5,000 increase in the recommended allocation to the
Boys and Girls Club.

In summary, the Citizen Participation Committee recommended that the City Council
approve the allocation as follows:

Assessment and Treatment Services Center $ 15,000
Boys and Girls Club $ 20,000
Feedback Foundation, Inc. $ 25,000

Note: Due to the number of applications received, staff developed a chart listing
all applications received (see Attachment 4) to facilitate the Council in making the
final decision. Complete applications can be reviewed at the Community
Development Office and will be available at the April 17'h City Council Meeting.

The hearing held by the Council is the second of two required public hearings. All
organizations and agencies returning funding applications to the City were notified of
the hearing. This public hearing also was advertised in a newspaper of general
circulation.
The Council may modify the recommended funding allocations; however, the Public
Services category is limited to a 15 percent maximum allocation ($124,419). A
change in allocation amount of an activity under the Public Services category would
result in a change of funding amount of other activities within the same category.
The Council's decision regarding funding allocation and priorities will be incorporated
within the Action Plan and will be submitted to HUD by May 15, 2006. When final
approval has been given by HUD, each public service non-profit organization
receiving funds will be asked to enter into agreements with the City requiring
compliance with all federal CDBG regulations relating to reporting, auditing, labor
standards, etc. All CDBG funds are distributed on a reimbursement basis; typically,
no disbursement of monies can be made until expenses are incurred and
documented to benefit the intended program.

B. Resources
There are numerous potential sources of funding which might enable the City of Tustin to
address priority housing and community development needs and specific objectives identified in
the Strategic Plan component of the Consolidated Plan. However, actual financial resources
currently available to the City are somewhat limited. A variety of resources must be used to
attain the City's goals and objectives, described in the Consolidated Plan. Throughout the fiscal
year, the City will continue to pursue additional funding opportunities.
The City's goal is to leverage, to the maximum extent feasible, the use of available Federal,
State, and 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 use 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 following resources are anticipated to be available for the 2006-07 fiscal year:

C. Activities to be Undertaken
CDBG monies allocated to the City for the 2006-07 funding year will not address all of the
community's priority needs. Instead, allocations are focused toward specific projects
addressing high community priorities and producing tangible community benefits.
The following are the needs rated by the community as high priorities and their relation to
the Five -Year priorities indicated in the Consolidated Plan. Included also are actions that
the City will undertake within the program year to address those needs. Table 3 summarizes
the City's priorities, objectives, and goals for the program year.
City of Tustin 2006-07 Action Plan
12
Housinl? Needs
Priority Activity: First-time Homebuyers Program
The 2000 Census data indicates that approximately 83.3 percent of the City's renters with low
income residents and 25.3 percent with moderate incomes are cost burdened (paying more than
30 percent of their income for housing), while 76.2 percent of those with low income are severely
cost -burdened (paying more than 50 percent of their income for housing), while none of the
moderate income rental households are severely cost -burdened. These conditions indicate that an
opportunity may exist for low- and moderate -income renter households to transition to becoming
first-time homebuyers with some assistance.
To address the above opportunities, various non -City resources will be expended. The City
will assist low to moderate -income households Citywide to participate in the following
existing state and lender first-time homebuyer financing programs:
• Low Interest Rate/Low Down -payment Mortgages;
• Financial Assistance for the purchase of existing housing stock.
• Mortgage Credit Certificate Program.
Priority Activity: Preservation of Existing Affordable Units
The City will continue to preserve its existing affordable housing by utilizing CDBG funds
and other resources such as housing set-aside funds, and other Federal and State available
housing funds. Programs include:
• Assistance to potential non-profit acquisition to expired Section 8 project -based
contracts.
Strategies to preserve existing affordable housing units include:
• Continue to preserve existing assisted housing.
• Continue to require developers converting apartments to condominiums to process a
use permit, provide relocation assistance, and/or provide incentives and assistance for
purchase of the units by low- and moderate -income households.
• Continue to provide housing referral services to families in need of housing assistance
and information.
• Code enforcement. Funding is provided for code enforcement activities focused in
low- and moderate -income neighborhoods. The code enforcement efforts support a
housing rehabilitation program funded with non -Federal monies.
City of Tustin 2006-07 Action Plan
13
• 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 the provision of counseling and dispute resolution services by the Fair
Housing Council of Orange County.
• Continue the provision of services by the Fair Housing Council of Orange County to
ensure equal housing opportunities within the City.
• 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.
Priority Activity: Rehabilitation of Existing Housing Stock
As indicated in the Consolidated Plan, a large number of older housing units are located within the
South Central and Town Center redevelopment project areas. These older homes are in need of
rehabilitation. Currently rehabilitation programs have been targeting specific areas located in the
southwest portion of the City. Programs include:
• Owner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants.
• Multi -Family Acquisition, Rehabilitation, and Conservation to Ownership Housing.
• Rental Rehabilitation Loans and Grants.
• Small Project Multi -Family Rental Acquisition and Rehabilitation.
Strategies for the rehabilitation of existing housing stock include:
Require appropriate deed restrictions to ensure continued affordability for low- or
moderate -income housing constructed or rehabilitated with the assistance of public or
Redevelopment Agency funds, as legally required.
Allocate available CDBG and Redevelopment Agency funds to finance public
improvements and rehabilitation of residential units in the City's target areas.
Use 20 percent 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 rental units for low- and moderate -income
households.
2006-07 Action Plan
14
Priority Activity: New Housing Construction
With the exception of development opportunities occurring on the available land from the reuse of the
MCAS -Tustin base site (Tustin Legacy), the City of Tustin is mostly built out. Consequently, the
City has limited opportunities for new ownership and rental construction on infill sites in the City.
Although the City does not currently have any senior or affordable housing development proposals
outside of Tustin Legacy, this program would assist the development of affordable units within newly
constructed projects in any portion of the City including the South Central or Town Center project
areas. Programs include:
New Owner Housing Construction
New Senior Rental Construction
The Tustin Legacy would provide opportunities for the construction of approximately 4,049 housing
units. Strategies to encourage new housing construction include:
The City will assist in the development of affordable new owner or senior rental
housing. Priority would be given to ownership housing consistent with the City's
Housing policy.
The City will provide for mixed-use site opportunities in Old Town where new
ownership townhomes could be constructed.
The City will provide referrals to the Orange County Housing Authority where
necessary for the development and operation of Federally assisted low- and moderate -
income housing programs.
Priority Activity: Support and Ancillary Services
This priority encourages activities which support affordable housing units for particular groups,
such as low- and very low-income households, homeless, and families in transition from
homelessness to independent living. Programs include:
Homeless Housing Partnership Program
Section 8 Certificate and Vouchers
Laurel House
Strategies for support and ancillary services to support affordable housing units for targeted
groups include:
2006-07 Action Plan
15
• The City supports activities of the Orange County Rescue Mission in obtaining
financial assistance to provide needed rehabilitation of housing facilities located at
Tustin Legacy.
• Encourage the availability of Section 8 rental assistance certificates and voucher
certificate program assistance funds through Orange County Housing Authority.
• Encourage the maintenance of existing and establishment of new certificates and
support the County's efforts to obtain continued Federal funding.
• Allocates CDBG funds to assist Laurel House in providing shelter to runaway
teenagers.
Community Development Needs
The Community Development needs within the City of Tustin are summarized below.
Priority Activity: Youth Centers/Services
Youth centers/services have been identified by the community as essential to provide
recreational options to area youth. The target area for the CDBG program is severely limited
in its park and recreation resources available to area youth desiring to participate in
constructive, affordable, and organized activities. Programs to address the need for youth
centers and services within the City of Tustin include:
Tustin Family Youth Center — CDBG funds will be allocated to the City of Tustin
Parks and Recreation Department to provide a full-time recreation coordinator at the
Tustin Family Youth Center located in the southwest neighborhood of the City. The
Center provides affordable recreation services to children, the majority of whom are of
low-income families.
Boys and Girls Club — Upward Bound enrichment program is provided by the Boys
and Girls Club for the academic, social, fitness, and character development needs of
at -risk youth in the southwest area of Tustin (CDBG low and moderate income tracts).
The Upward Bound program provides a comprehensive non -student day program for
100 at -risk youth with computerized tutoring and homework assistance, arts, sports,
fitness and recreation. CDBG funds will be utilized to pay for a portion of staff's
salary.
Priority Activity: Neighborhood Facilities
Community facilities to serve children, youth, and adults are high priorities for the City of
Tustin. The number of existing facilities in the City needs to expand to serve the growing
population and the changing needs of target -area residents. Programs include:
City of Tustin 2006-07
16
• Senior Center Kitchen Remodel — Although no new facilities are planned for this
fiscal year, the City through the City's Capital Improvement Program, will re -vamp
the senior center kitchen to broaden the serving capacity of the existing community
facility.
• EI Camino Real Parquet — CDGB funds have been allocated towards design and
landscape activities for a miniature park (parquet) located at 450 El Camino Real.
Priority Activity: Childcare Facilities/Services
Additional childcare facilities and services that are affordable to low- and moderate -income
families are needed to serve the number of families in need in the target area.
• Tustin Legacy Childcare Center— A childcare center is planned for in Building 547
on Tustin Legacy. Additionally, improvements will occur to existing facilities at
Tustin Legacy by providing a community center and sports fields which assist in
providing services for low income families, including their children.
Priority Activity: Recreation Facilities
The City's CDBG target area was largely planned and developed prior to its annexation to
the City of Tustin. Therefore, the area is comparatively limited in terms of park and
recreational opportunities. The higher population density within the target area also
contributes to the need for recreational facilities. As a result, considerable attention has been
focused on ways to provide additional private and public youth, adult, and senior services
and facilities to supplement those which are heavily used at this time. Programs to address
this priority include:
• Tustin Legacy Community Park - With the closing of the MCAS -Tustin in July of
1999, the City is undertaking steps to rehabilitate existing amenities within the base.
Prior year CDBG funds will be utilized for the rehabilitation of the existing buildings
to accommodate a community center, sports field maintenance, demolition of
underutilized structures and facilities, and upgrading health and safety code
requirements.
• Peppertree Park — Unused CDGB funds from prior year's programs have been
reallocated for replacement of the existing backstop, perimeter fencing, refurbishing
and restoring ball -field soil, installation of an additional 200 amp service for the
restroom and picnic bandshell.
• Pine Tree Park - Unused CDGB funds from prior year's programs have been
reallocated for design plans and specification for the renovation and replacement of a
13,000 square foot playground apparatus equipped tot lot.
City of Tustin 2006-07 Action Plan
17
Priority Activity: Street and Sidewalk Improvements/Infrastructure
The majority of the street and sidewalk improvements, as well as other types of infrastructure
in the target area, were constructed more than 25 years ago. Also, some areas were never
developed with sidewalks. These facilities have reached the age where they are beginning to
deteriorate more rapidly and require reconstruction. With the population growing, the need
for new street and infrastructure is also increasing. The City's objective is to promote the
improvement of existing infrastructure and the creation of new infrastructure where such
infrastructure is nonexistent or completely inadequate. Programs to address the needs of
street, sidewalk, and/or infrastructure improvements include:
• Construction of Pasadena Avenue Strom Drain Improvements — Construction of
Pasadena Avenue Storm Drain Improvements in the CDBG target area from Medallion
Avenue to Sycamore Avenue and Altadena Drive from westerly cul-de-sac to Pasadena
Avenue
• Design Services for future Sycamore Storm Drain Improvements - Design
services only during FY 2006-07 for installation of storm drain pipe and catch basins. A
separate application will be made during FY 2007-08 for funding construction of the
project
• East Alley Improvements — Construction of improvements to the alley located west
of 191 Main Street.
• Prospect Avenue Improvements — Construction of street, curb, gutter, and sidewalk
improvements Third Street, Prospect Avenue, and Main Street surrounding the parcel
at 191 -193 Main Street.
• Sycamore Gardens Right -of -Way Improvements — Right-of-way acquisition for
Sycamore Gardens. This project will be completed a multi -phased project. The first
year application would cover design costs.
Priority Activity: Senior Services
Area senior services are presently provided through the City's full-service senior center
located in Old Town Tustin. Although the senior center is not geographically distant from the
target area, multi -cultural and economic limitations and barriers may be preventing full
participation in the center's programs. Additional services are necessary to target this
population. Current programs include:
Feedback Foundation — Tustin TLC Nutrition Program for the Elderly. The
Feedback Nutrition Program for the elderly (including congregate and home -delivered
meals) provides nutritious meals to the Tustin's elderly. The program objective is to
alleviate poor nutrition among the vulnerable elderly population, especially prevalent
City of Tustin 2006-07 Action
18
among those who live alone and/or on limited incomes. The program not only
provides meals at a congregate site in Tustin, but also delivers meals to at -risk seniors
(homebound) residing within the City. CDBG funds will be allocated to reimburse the
raw food and other meals' related costs.
Priority Activity: Crime Awareness
The target area has become the community's highest priority for crime prevention activities,
given the increasing population density and increasing need for police services. The
population is a potential target for victim -related crime, which could be prevented by the
implementation of crime awareness programs which include:
• Assessment and Treatment Services Center (ATSC) — CDBG funds will be
allocated to the ATSC to provide staff for youth and family counseling services.
ATSC provides counseling to minor and first-time offenders of the law, youth who
demonstrate poor school behavior or performance, youth with family problems or who
are victims of domestic violence, and youth who use drugs or alcohol or who are
delinquent. While program participation is voluntary, a child and his/her entire family
must agree to undergo therapy together. Referrals are made to this organization by the
Tustin Police and area schools. Counseling services are provided by ATSC staff or
coordinated with other agencies.
Priority Activity: Health Services
Based on the 2000 census, the Southwest area of the City (CDBG target area) is concentrated
with high-density residential and low-income households. Often, the majority of the
households' income is utilized to pay for housing. Consequently, limited or maybe none at all
is set aside for health insurance. Preventive medical and dental care is a luxury that typical
households may not be able to afford. Low-cost health services are needed to help the
household with preventive health and dental care. Programs to address this need include:
• Health and Human Services: The Tustin Parks and Recreation Department offers
health services such as fitness programs, hearing test, senior hair cuts, Alzheimer
support, housing referrals, counseling, etc. All services are offered free or at small
nominal fee to Tustin Seniors.
Priority Activity: Code Enforcement
Property maintenance issues are of significant importance to the community as the majority of
residential, commercial, and industrial structures in the target area are at least 25 years in age.
Absentee property owners contributed to delayed property maintenance in many cases.
Active Code Enforcement is needed to ensure that properties are properly maintained in
accordance with City standards. Programs addressing code enforcement include:
City of Tustin 2006-07 Action Plan
19
Code Enforcement — CDBG funds will be allocated for salary and benefits for one
code enforcement officer to support the City's Housing Rehabilitation program
targeting the southwest neighborhood (low- and moderate -income target areas).
Graffiti Removal — CDBG funds will be allocated for the removal of graffiti in the
southwest neighborhood. The southwest neighborhood has been determined by HUD
as the CDBG low- and moderate -income target areas.
Priority Activity: Economic Development
To stimulate businesses within the CDBG target areas, the City initiated a Commercial
Rehabilitation program. The program will provide financial assistance to private for-profit
businesses for fagade improvements. Monetary assistance will be provided for either design
or construction costs. Programs to enhance economic development include:
Old Town Commercial Rehabilitation — Prior CDBG funds will be utilized to
provide grant funding for design of commercial building rehabilitation within the Old
Town redevelopment area.
Priority Activity: Planning/Administration
Planning Services are needed to administer the CDBG program, to prepare planning
documents for Old Town Tustin, and to provide fair housing assistance. These services are
necessary to support the other priorities. Planning and administration programs include:
Fair housing activities — CDBG funds will be allocated to contract with the Fair
Housing Council of Orange County to provide fair housing services to Tustin
residents. Services include landlord/tenant dispute resolution, education, counseling,
and fair housing monitoring and compliance. The contract also includes the
implementation of the Analysis of Impediment to Fair Housing Choice.
Planning and Administration — CDBG funds will be allocated for the administration
of the CDBG program.

D. Geographic Distribution
Tustin is a relatively small jurisdiction with limited areas which meet the Federal criteria of
slum and blight, as defined under California State Redevelopment Law, or concentrations of
low- and moderate -income persons. Nevertheless, FY 2006-07 funds have been allocated on
the basis of meeting the national objectives of the CDBG program, including programs
addressing slum and blight and/or benefiting low- and moderate -income persons.
Further, boundaries of the South Central redevelopment project area overlap areas of low -
and moderate -income concentrations. The Tustin community believes it is important to
focus public services and improvements in that portion of the City known as the Southwest
Neighborhood. The 2006-07 Action Plan reflects those "geographic" priorities for allocating
investment.

E. Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities
Statistical data, including the 2000 census and data maintained by the Tustin Police
Department, indicate that homelessness is not a major issue within the Tustin community.
Nevertheless, it is recognized that 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.
Furthermore, the City of Tustin participates in the County of Orange's annual Continuum of
Care (CoQ application.
1. Activities to Address Emergency Shelter and Transitional Housing Needs of
Homeless Individuals and Families
In late 1996 and 1998, Tustin was awarded more than $1 million and approximately
$800,000, respectively, for a supportive housing facility under the Continuum of Care
Homeless Assistance Grant program. The City is in the process of acquiring 22 units of
transitional housing (6 units at the former MCAS Tustin and 16 units in Buena Park) for
the Salvation Army, using approximately $1,370,000 of the grant money. The remaining
balance of approximately $430,000 will be used to assist three (3) other homeless
providers (Human Option, Families Forward, and Orange Coast Interfaith Shelter) to
provide additional 26 transitional housing units. Descriptions for these facilities are
provided in Table 5.
On December 28, 2001, the City of Tustin and Orange County Rescue Mission executed a
ground lease to support the Rescue Mission's construction/rehabilitation of a 5.1 acre site
to establish a 192 -unit transitional housing project at the former MCAS Tustin.
Currently, construction is underway and it is anticipated to be completed within the next
two years.
For FY 2006-07, the City will allocate funds for Laurel House, a local temporary shelter
for teens, using CDBG funds.
2. Activities to Prevent Low-income Individuals and Families with Children from
Becoming Homeless
The City of Tustin participates in the County of Orange Continuum Care program. The
Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA) established a Family Self -Sufficiency
Program. Preference for this program is given to families with children who are homeless
or who are in danger of becoming homeless (those paying over 50 percent of household
income for rent). In addition to providing housing assistance, this program provides a
variety of support services designed to assist participants become economically
independent including job training and employment for program participants.
of Tustin 2006-07 Action Plan
43
Tustin has allocated the maximum allowable amount of its CDBG funds to public service
programs. While some of the organizations funded do not directly serve the homeless,
many of their activities may prevent homelessness. These activities include Laurel
House, counseling program (ATSC), and Tustin Family and Youth Center programs.
3. Activities to Help Homeless Persons Make the Transition to Permanent Housing and
Independent Living
The City recognized that the homeless are often in need of low rent or subsidized housing
in order to make the transition to independent living. The Orange County Housing
Authority will continue to assist homeless persons on the Section 8 waiting list. Other
efforts to help the homeless also are provided by local non -profits and churches.
4. Activities to Address the Special Needs of Persons Who Are Not Homeless
The City's Senior Center provides assistance to the elderly and frail elderly. These
include transportation services, case management, information and referrals, shared
housing program, senior activities, health and fitness, and other recreational activities.
The City allocates CDBG funds to assist the Feedback Foundation to provide meals
service to the elderly and frail elderly (home -bound elderly). The City will continue to
refer those persons with special needs, such as persons with disabilities (mental, physical,
developmental), persons with alcohol or other drug dependencies, and persons with
HIV/AIDS to appropriate agencies.

1. General
The five-year Consolidated Plan contains a housing and homeless needs assessment
which describes estimated housing needs for low- and moderate -income residents,
special needs populations, and the homeless. During the 2006-07 funding year, the
City of Tustin will undertake the following actions to address obstacles to meeting
underserved needs including the following goals:
Foster and maintain affordable housing
The City will continue to use available Federal, State, and local resources to
foster and maintain affordable housing through housing rehabilitation
programs for multi- and single-family dwelling units and provide and/or
maintain homeownership opportunities through a homebuyer assistance
program.
Remove barriers to affordable housing
As stated in the Consolidated Plan, the City has adopted indirect assistance
programs to address negative impacts created by barriers to affordable

• Evaluate and reduce lead-based paint hazards
The City's Consolidated Plan notes that there does not appear to be a large
number of housing units at risk of lead-based paint hazard. However, to
comply with Title X of the Housing and Community Development Act of
1992, the City will implement into its housing policies over the next five years
the following:
O Include lead-based paint hazard reduction as an eligible activity in
rehabilitation programs;
O Review existing regulations, housing, and rehabilitation codes to assure
lead-based paint hazard reduction is incorporated;
O Require testing and hazard reduction in conjunction with rehabilitation;
and,
City of Tustin 2006-07 Action Plan
46
O Require inspections for lead at appropriate times when housing is
otherwise being inspected or evaluated.
• Reduce the number of poverty -level families
The City continues to support and implement several goals, policies, and
programs, as noted in the Housing Element of the General Plan, designed to
provide adequate, safe, and affordable housing to all segments of the
population. Those goals include:
O Providing an adequate supply of housing to meet the City's need for a
variety of housing types to meet diverse socio-economic needs.
O Ensuring equal housing opportunities for all existing and future City
residents.
O Ensuring a reasonable balance of rental and owner -occupied housing.
O Preserving the existing supply of affordable housing.
O Conserving, maintaining, rehabilitating, and/or replacing existing housing
in neighborhoods which are safe, healthful, and attractive, in accordance
with the adopted Land Use policy.
• Develop institutional structure
The City will continue to be involved in "network -building" activities with
governmental, for-profit, and non-profit organizations. This includes
attendance at quarterly meetings of the Orange County Housing Authority
Advisory Committee. Tustin will also continue to fund the Fair Housing
Council of Orange County which provides fair housing and advocacy services
for the region. Further, the City will continue to encourage and participate in
efforts to work collectively and cooperatively with other Orange County
jurisdictions.
• Enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
service agencies
The City of Tustin does not own or operate any public housing projects.
Nevertheless, the City will continue to support and encourage efforts of the
Orange County Housing Authority to coordinate between private housing and
social service agencies.
City of Tustin 2006-07 Action Plan
47
Foster public housing improvements and resident incentives
While the City does not own or operate any public housing projects, Tustin
will continue to support and encourage public housing improvements and
resident incentives as carried out by the Orange County Housing Authority.
• Use available Federal, State, and local financial resources to meet
underserved needs.
• Coordinate with Federal, State, and local agencies to provide appropriate
assistance to residents.
• Coordinate with public service providers to promote adequate services to
residents.
• Work to provide physical improvements to slum and blighted areas and
neighborhoods with concentrations of low- and moderate -income areas.
2. Public Housing
The City of Tustin does not have a Housing Authority. The City of Tustin contracts
with the Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA) to provide public housing and a
variety of housing assistance programs to qualifying City residents.
The City does not own or operate public housing, and no public housing
developments are proposed for Fiscal Year 2006-07.
G. Program - Specific Requirements
CDBG - A description of all CDBG funds expected to be available during the 2006-07
program year is provided in Table 1. A more comprehensive listing of the City's proposed
use of those funds is provided in Table 4. No program income has been received from the
previous program year; none is anticipated for 2006-07. The City has no urban renewal
settlements, grant funds returned to the line of credit, or income from float -funded activities.
H. Citizen Participation and Consultation
HUD requires that each jurisdiction encourage its citizens to participate in the development of
the Consolidated Plan/Action Plan. To ensure that this opportunity is provided, the City of
Tustin adopted its Citizen Participation Plan in 1995 and revised it in January of 2003. The
Citizen Participation Plan sets forth policies and procedures for citizen participation in
planning, implementation, and assessment of the City of Tustin Consolidated Plan/Action
Plan.
City of Tustin 2006-07 Action Plan
48
The objectives of the Citizen Participation Plan are:
To encourage citizens, particularly residents of low- and moderate -income living in
areas eligible for the use of program funds, including minorities, non-English
speaking persons, and persons with mobility, visual, or hearing impairments to
participate in the development of the Consolidated Plan/Action Plan.
2. To assure that citizens are furnished with appropriate information about the
Consolidated Plan and its various component programs.
The City started the Citizen Participation process by publishing a Notice of Funding
Availability (NOFA) in the local newspaper seeking Request for Funding Applications for the
2006-07 CDBG funds. In addition, the City also sent the NOFA to over 100 non-profit
organizations. The City received 17 applications totaling $1,269,449 in funding requests.
To develop the City's 2006-07 Action Plan, two public hearings were conducted. The first
public hearing, called the Citizen Participation Committee Meeting, was held during the
preparation of the Action Plan. The hearing was held on February 15, 2006. The purpose of
the first hearing was to obtain citizens' input and views on possible needs, goals, and
objectives; to inform citizens about the CDBG program goals and objectives, including its
process and procedures; and, to receive input and recommendations on the proposed use of
CDBG funds to the City Council. The second public hearing was held on April 17, 2006.
The purpose of the second hearing was for the City Council to review the Citizen
Participation Committee's recommendation on the proposed use of CDBG funds for Fiscal
Year 2006-07 for submission to HUD.
All notices for the above hearings were published in the local newspaper at least 10 days prior
to the hearing date and notices were posted at City Hall and at the library. All citizens were
encouraged to participate, and those who required special accommodation were accounted
for.
The City also, as required by HUD, published a notice of the availability of a draft Action
Plan for public review. The thirty (30) day public review and comment period began on
March 2, 2006, and ended on April 1, 2006. No comments were received from this public
ucaW.11M
I. Communication
The City of Tustin provides its Citizen Participation Committee with a package of CDBG
materials and conducted a workshop to explain the CDBG process and procedures. The City
also provides maps and tables to assist citizens in understanding the CDBG overall goals and
objectives. The City, with the help of HUD, posts its Executive Summary on the HUD web
page as a tool for interested citizens to understand the type of projects funded by the CDBG
program. Information related to the CDBG program is also available on the City's Webpage.
The City prepares a performance report at the end of the program year utilizing the IDIS
program.

J. Community Vision
The City delineates the Community's vision in its Five-year (2005-2010) Consolidated Plan.
The Consolidated Plan outlines community priority needs and its short-term and long-term
goals and objectives. A copy of the Consolidated Plan is available to the public upon request
at no cost. The City updates this Consolidated Plan as the community's vision and goals
change throughout the years. The City annually submits an Action Plan to HUD as an
application to receive funding. Within the Action Plan, the City provides benchmarks on each
activity funded. These benchmarks will be utilized to measure the City's progress in
achieving the stated goals and vision.
K. Strategies
With limited resources, the City strives to address the affordable housing, economic
opportunity, and Continuum of Care issues. Section C of this Action Plan describes the
activities and strategies that the City will undertake during the program year to address the
Affordable Housing issue. Section F indicates strategies that the City will undertake to
address obstacles in meeting the under -served needs, foster and maintain affordable housing,
remove barriers to affordable housing, evaluate and reduce lead-based paint hazards, reduce
the number of poverty -level families, develop institutional structure, and enhance the
coordination between the public and private housing and social services agencies.
Section E of this Action Plan describes the activities that the City will undertake to address
the homeless population. The City in its Consolidated Plan addresses the Continuum of Care
strategies in further detail.
Section C of this Action Plan describes the activities that the City will undertake to expand its
economic opportunities. Due to the closure of the MCAS -Tustin, the City is cautiously
undertaking an economic development plan to address all the economic opportunities that will
be available.
L. Action Plan
Each year the City prepares an Action Plan not only for submission to HUD, but also to
utilize the Action Plan as a tool to provide the public with information on how the City
utilizes its entitlement grant for the program year. The Action Plan provides a description of
each activity, the amount of funding, and the projected accomplishment. All applications
received by the City in response to its call for applications are summarized in the Proposed
Project Table (Table 4) of the Action Plan.
M. Integrated Approach to Planning and Development
Utilizing the Consolidated Plan process, the City was able to identify community needs,
goals, and objectives. The City also was able to identify available resources and effectively
utilize the funds. The Consolidated Plan provides the City with strategies, goals, and
City of Tustin 2006-07 Action Plan
50
identifiable benchmarks that the City can assess at the end of program year for program
achievements.
Each year the City invites public participation in identifying the needs of the community and
prioritizing them in the order of high, medium, low, or no priority. With these identified
needs, the City develops its Consolidated Plan/Action Plan by establishing activities to
address those needs utilizing the available resources.
N. Monitoring System
To ensure program compliance, the City conducts a formal on-site monitoring visit to each
subrecipient. The City established a monitoring procedure to ensure that each subrecipient is
carrying out the eligible activity, utilizing appropriate accounting methods, and verifying
information provided to the City within the quarterly performance report. The on-site
monitoring visit also provides the City with an opportunity to identify potential problem areas
and to assist the subrecipients with technical assistance. The City utilizes a monitoring
checklist form (see Appendix E) as a standard form to monitor the subrecipients.
In addition, all projects will be monitored for compliance with all State and Federal
requirements including, but not limited to, eligibility, environmental impacts and labor
regulations.

CITY OF TUSTIN
OFFICIAL NOTICE
The City of Tustin is in the process of preparing/finalizing its one-year Action Plan, detailing the
projected use of Fiscal Year 2006-07 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
To receive CDBG funds, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires
jurisdictions to prepare a "Consolidated Plan," a five-year planning document intended to identify a
community's overall need for affordable and supportive housing, community development
programs, social services, and economic opportunities for low- and moderate -income persons. The
Plan also outlines a five-year strategy to meet those needs and identifies resources and programs
that would address them.
The One-year Action Plan, a section of the Consolidated Plan, serves as the City of Tustin's
application to HUD for CDBG funding. The City must submit an Action Plan annually for each of
the five years covered by the Consolidated Plan. The purpose of the Action Plan is to detail exactly
how the City will spend its annual allocation of funds to meet community needs identified in the
Consolidated Plan.
The Draft 2006-07 One-year Action Plan will be available for public review and comment for thirty
(30) days beginning March 2, 2006, and ending March 31, 2006. Copies are available at the
Community Development Department, City of Tustin, 300 Centennial Way, Tustin, California
92780. The Final 2006-07 Action Plan will be submitted to HUD by May 15, 2006. The 2006-07
Fiscal Year for the CDBG program will begin July 1, 2006.
Written comments pertaining to the Draft Action Plan must be submitted by April 3, 2006, at 5:00
p.m. and directed to: Chad OrtIieb, City of Tustin, 300 Centennial Way, Tustin, California 92780.
Information concerning the Draft One-year Action Plan should be directed to Justina Willkom with
the Community Development Department at (714) 573-3127.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT
PROJECT SELECTION PROCESS AND EVALUATION CRITERIA
The City reserves the right to act as sole judge of the content of the proposals submitted for City's
evaluation and selection. The City further reserves the right to reject any or all project proposals.
A. CONSOLIDATED PLAN - PRIORITY NEEDS
To participate in the Federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, the
City of Tustin has submitted to the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development a
five-year planning document entitled the Consolidated Plan. The Plan details community
needs and provides a strategy for addressing those needs.
The Consolidated Plan contains a Listing of Priority Needs table which rates (high, medium,
or low) a wide variety of community needs, including housing, homeless assistance, public
facilities, infrastructure improvements, public services, economic development, and other
community development needs.
When considering projects and programs to be funded with CDBG monies, the proposals
should address the community's priority needs (see attached).
B. FUNDING CRITERIA
Evaluation and selection of the requests for funding proposals will also be based upon the
following considerations and criteria:
Completion of All Application Forms and Requested Information
2. Proposer's General Experience and Capability
a. Proposer's demonstrated experience in the operation of programs similar to
the one for which funding is requested.
b. Proposer's demonstrated ability to provide the specific services proposed.

of life for Tustin residents.

7. Not discriminate in employment or in clients served because of race, religion,
sex, or national origin.
8. Be accountable for revenue and expenditures through standard bookkeeping
procedures. An annual audit at the agency's expense may be required, with
the results available to the City of Tustin upon request.
C. EVALUATION PROCESS
An evaluation team comprised of City personnel will conduct the evaluation of the
proposals; however, it may also include elected officials and other community leaders. In all
cases, members of the team will have appropriate experience in the evaluation and
administration of projects, proposals, lease agreements, construction contracts, bid
documents, and public service program operations.
In connection with its evaluation, the team may, at its option, request interviews with those
individuals or organizations proposing projects. During these interviews, the proposers will
be allowed to present such evidence, as may be appropriate, for the team to accurately
analyze all materials and documentation submitted with the proposals. The selection team
will employ the applicable criteria and their expertise in evaluating all proposals and shall
submit a report to the City Council detailing a highest -to -lowest ranking of all responsive
proposals.
D. APPROVAL OF FUNDING PROPOSAL
Subsequent to the evaluation process, recommendations will be presented to the City
Council for review and approval. Specific amounts of recommended allocations may not
correlate with the amount requested by an agency. Funding recommendations shall be
presented at a regular meeting of the City Council and are subject to public review and
comment. Distribution of grant funds is contingent on receipt of monies from the Federal
government and funding granted in one fiscal year does not assure an applicant of any future
funding.
