COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT CONSOLIDATED PLAN
SUBJECT: FOR PROGRAM YEARS 2025-2029 AND ONE YEAR ACTION PLAN
FOR PROGRAM YEAR 2025-2026
SUMMARY:
The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, established the
Community Development Block Grant 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 grant program,
the City is required to prepare a five-year Consolidated Plan that identifies needs for
affordable and supportive housing, community development, public services, and
economic opportunities. Annually, the City is also required to prepare a one-year Action
Plan that implements the goals and objectives contained in the Consolidated Plan. The
documents set forth in Resolution No. 25-23 (Attachment A) fulfill these requirements.
On February 26, 2025, the Citizen Participation Committee held the first of two required
public hearings in the Consolidated Plan/Action Plan approval process. At this hearing,
the Committee received an overview of the grant program, heard public input and
testimony, and considered and provided a recommendation on the 2025-2029
Consolidated Plan's identified community needs, including associated priorities and goals,
to be transmitted to the City Council for approval.

documents, certifications, contracts, or other instruments as may be required to
carry out the CDBG program.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan and 2025-26 Action Plan programs and
expenditures will be implemented with CDBG funds. The City anticipates that its grant
allocation for Program Year 2025-26 will be approximately $700,000. No impacts to the
General Fund are anticipated.
CORRELATION TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN:
Administration of the CDBG program falls under Goal A of the City of Tustin's Strategic
Plan pertaining to Economic and Neighborhood Development. Goal A of the Strategic
Plan strives to enable business opportunities and job development and to enhance the
vibrancy and quality of life in all neighborhoods and areas of the community.
Neighborhood revitalization and promoting economic development are both primary
components within management of the CDBG program.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
We 8 • from e"Is i1
To participate in the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, each
jurisdiction is required to prepare a five-year Consolidated Plan (ConPlan). The
ConPlan is intended to identify a jurisdiction's overall needs for affordable and
supportive housing, community development, public services, and economic
opportunities. The ConPlan also outlines a five-year strategy for addressing those
needs and identifies resources and programs which might assist in meeting these goals.
In developing the Consolidated Plan, the City of Tustin's current Housing Element and
the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy data were utilized in developing the
City's affordable housing strategies, goals and objectives.
In 2012, The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) introduced the
eCon Planning Suite, a collection of new online tools to help grantees create market
and data -driven, leveraged housing and community development plans. One of these
tools, the Consolidated Plan Template, is now required for all Consolidated Plans
submitted to HUD. The City has utilized this online template for completion of its 2025-
2029 Consolidated Plan.
The Consolidated Plan has four (4) primary components: 1) Needs Assessment; 2)
Housing Market Analysis; 3) Strategic Plan; and 4) Annual Action Plan. In general, the
components are summarized as follows:

1. Needs Assessment - a five-year estimate of housing and supportive services
needs, including the nature and extent of homelessness in the community.
2. Housing Market Analysis - a description of significant characteristics of the
housing market, a brief inventory of facilities and services meeting housing needs
of homeless persons, and an explanation of barriers to affordable housing.
3. Strategic Plan - a plan/strategy identifying key goals for addressing priority
housing/community development needs.
4. Action Plan - a description of activities and projects to be undertaken with grant
funds during the 2025-26 program year.
The Consolidated 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
review through the Tustin News, posted at the Tustin Library and Senior Center, sent
via U.S. Mail, and e-mailed to over 100 interested parties. The review period began on
March 13, 2025, and ended on April 14, 2025. No public comments have been received,
as of the printing of this staff report. If comments are received after the publication of
this report, they will be summarized during the public hearing. HUD mandates that the
Action Plan must be submitted no later than forty-five (45) days prior to the start of the
Program Year, by May 16, 2025.
Action Plan
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 its entitlement money. The purpose of the Action Plan is to detail
how the City intends to spend its annual allocation of funds to meet community needs
identified in the Consolidated Plan.
Program Requirements and Regulations
The City anticipates receiving approximately $700,000 in CDBG funds for Fiscal Year
2025-26. 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 for projects
that:
1. Benefit low- and moderate -income persons;
2. Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight;
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 also requires that at least 70 percent of the total CDBG funds 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 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, but not limited to, the
following:
Housing related activities
» Removal of Architectural Barriers to Public Facilities
» Rehabilitation and Preservation Activities
» Public Facilities and Improvements
Public Services Activities
Economic Development Activities
Planning and Program Administration, etc.
In addition, the program also limits the amount of allocation for Public Services activities
and Program Administration. A maximum of 15 percent (15% x $700,000 = $105,000)
of the total grant award may be allocated to Public Services types of activities. A
maximum of 20 percent (20% x $700,000 = $140,000) of the total grant award may be
expended on Program Administration activities.
Public Service Activities Multiyear Funding
The City of Tustin maintains a three-year funding cycle for public service activities. The
approved public service programs for the current three-year cycle (2023-2026) will
continue to receive funding for a third year (2025-26), if the following criteria is met:
Activities must continue to meet the priorities and objectives for which the activities
are funded in year -one;
Activities must continue to leverage funds with other sources;
Activities must be in compliance with contractual obligations;
Activities must report accomplishments correctly in the Quarterly and Annual
Performance Reports and/or other documentation as described in current year
contract;
Activities must receive a successful assessment of project performance and
progress from City staff.

City Staff has completed monitoring interviews with each of the nine (9) non-profit
subrecipients, to determine if they are making progress in meeting their program goals.
Staff can affirm each of the non -profits have continued to operate their programs as
outlined within their CDBG contract, and are making positive progress toward meeting
their program goals. The subrecipients have the remaining two quarters of the current
2024-25 program year to accomplish their stated program goals. Using the first two
quarters' accomplishments data, most non-profit subrecipients have accomplished, on
average, approximately 50 percent or more of the stated objectives.
The City of Tustin has not yet been notified by the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) of the City of Tustin's grant award for the 2025-26 funding
year; however, based on prior year's allocations, the City of Tustin anticipates receiving
approximately $700,000. The funding amounts listed below may be increased or
decreased proportionately among the nine organizations, based on Tustin's final 2025-

Citizen Participation Process
Federal laws relating to CDBG funds require cities to provide citizens with specific
information about grant funds expected for the program, and the range of activities that
may be carried out with those funds. Federal regulations also require a jurisdiction to hold
at least two public hearings to obtain the views of citizens on such issues as housing,
other community development needs, and the use of the CDBG funds.
On February 26, 2025, the Citizen Participation Committee held the first of two required
public hearings in the Consolidated Plan/Action Plan approval process. At this hearing,
the Committee received an overview of the grant program, heard public input and
testimony, and considered and provided direction on the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan's
identified community needs including associated priorities and goals to be transmitted to
the City Council for approval.
The Committee additionally considered community input that was received during the
release of a community survey (survey was live from November — December 2024), which
gathered over 100 responses. The Committee used the community survey input, the City
Council's Strategic Plan goals, and CDBG program requirements, to rank the identified
community needs as "high" or "low" priority. Their feedback was incorporated into the
Strategic Plan section of the 2025-2029 ConPlan. Other public comments received during
the Citizen's Participation Committee meeting included support for CDBG priorities such
as homeless services, and healthcare services for Tustin residents.

compliance with all Federal CDBG regulations relating to program management, reporting,
auditing, etc. No disbursement of funds can be made to any agency or organization until

Introduction:
HUD mandates that each jurisdiction encourage citizen participation in the development of the
Consolidated Plan and subsequent Action Plan. To facilitate this, the City of Tustin established
its Citizen Participation Plan in 1995, which was revised in January 2003. The Plan was further
amended in 2016 and 2019 to create a Citizen Participation Committee responsible for overseeing
the selection of public services funded with CDBG funds. This committee consists of the
Chairperson or their designee from the Planning Commission, Community Services Commission,
Senior Advisory Board, and Audit Commission, along with three at -large Tustin residents
appointed by the City Council. Additionally, the Citizen Participa ' Plan was updated to change
the funding cycle for public service activities, returning to a t ear cycle instead of an annual
one.
The Citizen Participation Plan set forth policies and

year. To develop the City's 2025-26 Action Plan, two public hearings were conducted. The first
public hearing was held by the Citizen Participation Committee on February 26, 2025. The
purpose of the first hearing was to inform interested citizens about the CDBG program, collect
community feedback on CDBG goals and priorities including community needs, and receive input
and recommendations from the CPC, to be submitted to the City Council for consideration.
Members of the public attended this hearing in an in -person and in a virtual setting. Public
comments/input from the Citizen Participation Committee included recommendations and support
for the draft goals and priorities.
A second public hearing is anticipated to be held on April 15, 2025, by the City Council. The
purpose of the second hearing is for the City Council to review the 2025-2029 Draft Consolidated

approve a funding allocation 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 Consolidated
Plan and Action Plan, for public review. The thirty -day public review and comment period began
on March 13, 2025, and will end on April 14, 2025.

To address the regional needs of homeless individuals and families, the City of Tustin participates
in the Continuum of Care (CoC) program, sponsored by the County of Orange. The goal of the
Continuum of Care Homeless Assistance Programs is to fund projects that fill gaps in locally
developed systems, helping homeless individuals and families move towards self-sufficiency and
permanent housing. A key focus of this effort is funding initiatives that contribute to the
Department's objective of ending chronic homelessness.
The Orange County Continuum of Care system includes six essential components: Advocacy for
individuals who are homeless or at risk of homelessness; Outreach, assessment, and prevention
services to evaluate the needs of homeless individuals or families; Emergency shelters with

supportive services to ensure proper shelter and referrals; Transitional housing to assist
individuals and families transitioning to permanent housing and independent living; Permanent
housing and supportive housing to address long-term needs; and efforts to reduce chronic
homelessness in Orange County, including addressing the housing needs of homeless families
and individuals using motels.
The County and Orange County Continuum of Care conducted the 2024 Point -in -Time (PIT)
Count during the week of January 22, 2024, as required every two years by the U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The sheltered count took place on the night of
Monday, January 22, 2024, while the unsheltered count was conducted from Tuesday, January
23, 2024, to Thursday, January 25, 2024.
According to the latest available data, approximately 88 unsheltered homeless individuals and
335 sheltered homeless individuals are present in Tustin on any�en night. This information will
be utilized to ensure that residents have access to fair housing ources and services.

Needs Assessment Overview:
This section of the Consolidated Plan outlines the projected housing needs for the City of Tustin
for the five-year period beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2030. The housing data
presented here is based on information pre -determined by the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) in the Plan template within HUD's Integrated Disbursement &
Information System (IDIS). The majority of the data is drawn from the 2016-2020 Comprehensive
Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) data provided by HUD. Additionally, where available,
updated data from the 2017-2021 and 2018-2022 American Community Survey (ACS) has been
incorporated. Further data has been sourced from the 2021 Sou hern California Association of
Governments (SCAG) Regional Housing Needs Assessment 021 RHNA), and the City of

NA-10 Housing Needs Assessment - 24 CFR 91.205 (a,b,c)
Summary of Housing Needs:
Affordable housing as whole, is a critical need throughout the Orange County region, including
Tustin. The City of Tustin is committed to preserving existing affordable housing resources while
encouraging the development of new affordable housing options. Based on the latest census and
American Community Survey (ACS) data, Tustin is classified as a "high -cost housing" area.
According to the 2017-2021 ACS Five -Year Estimates, Tustin has 13,165 renter -occupied
housing units, which account for 49.6% of all occupied housing units in the City. The ACS data
also reveals that approximately 5,520 (41.9%) of these renter households spend more than 30%
of their income on rent. In comparison, nearly the same number of owner -occupied units exist
(13,395 or 50.4%), with 72.7% of these households paying over 30% of their income toward their
mortgage. The ACS shows a higher proportion of cost -burden# households (those spending
more than 30% of income on housing) than the HUD's 2016-2,MCHAS data, as shown in Table
5.
Very low-income renters are particularly affected by ing challen According to the HUD -

Several factors will influence the level of demand or "need" for housing in Tustin. The key "needs"
categories addressed in the Plan include:
Housing needs arising from one or more identified housing problems, such as lacking
complete kitchen facilities, lacking complete plumbing facilities, overcrowding (more than
one person per room), and a cost burden greater than 30% of income.
Housing needs due to severe housing problems, including lack of complete kitchen or
plumbing facilities, overcrowding (more than 1.5 persons per room, excluding bathrooms,
porches, foyers, halls, or half -rooms), and a cost burden exceeding 50% of income.

Table 5 shows the number of households with a housing cost burden of more than 30%, broken
down by household type, tenancy, and household income, expressed as a percentage of Area
Median Income (AMI). The data indicates that 6,935 renter -occupied households (26.2% of all
households) and 2,225 owner -occupied households (8.4% of all households) spend over 30% of
their income on housing costs.
HUD defines small, related households as those with two to four related members, while large,
related households are those with five or more related members. An elderly household is defined
by HUD as a household where the head, spouse, or sole member is at least 62 years of age.

The data is displayed by household type, tenancy, and household income expressed as AMI.
Describe the number and type of single person households in need of housing
assistance:
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, nonfamily households include individuals who live alone
or share their residence with unrelated people. Based on the 2018-2022 American Community
Survey Five -Year Estimates (Table S1101 - Households and Families), the City of Tustin has
7,188 nonfamily households, which represents 21.7% of all households in the city. The at -risk

single -person population in need of housing assistance includes seniors, homeless individuals,
people living in poverty, those with HIV/AIDS, survivors of domestic violence, individuals with
disabilities or mental illness, those facing foreclosure, and people who have recently lost their
jobs.
As the ACS data indicates, nearly 20% of all Tustin households consist of individuals living alone.
Additionally, 73.4% of nonfamily households are single -person households, with 25.3% of these
individuals aged 65 or older. The data from ACS Table B19201 (shown in Exhibit 2 - NA-10)
reveals that nearly 21 % of nonfamily households live in poverty, while almost 50% of nonfamily
households are low-income, earning less than 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI).
Exhibit 1 — NA-10 — Housing Needs Assessment (Nonfamily Households/Female-Headed
Households) provides further details from ACS Table S1101 regarding the information
mentioned in the narrative.

What are the most common housing problems?
The most prevalent housing issue in Tustin is the cost burden of owning or renting a home.
According to HUD standards, families who spend more than 30% of their gross income on housing
are considered cost burdened. As detailed in Tables 5 and 6, 2,225 owner -occupied households
(8.4% of all households) pay more than 30% of their income toward housing costs, and 880
owner -occupied households (3.32% of all households) pay more than 50% of their income toward
housing costs, which represents 47.78% of all households in Tustin. Homeowners with incomes
between 51-80% of AMI (900 households) are most impacted by the 30% cost burden, accounting
for 40.45% of those paying more than 30% of their income on housing. Additionally, homeowners
with incomes between 0-30% of AMI experience the highest cost burden, with 46.6% of those
paying more than 50% of their income on housing falling into this income category.
Renter -occupied households face similar cost burdens. A

According to Table 2, which presents data from the 2016-2020 CHAS, 15,380 households in
Tustin, or 58.03% of all households, have children. Of these, the majority (12,295 households, or
79.94%) are small families. Among families with children, 44.6% are low-income, and 9.43% are
extremely low-income. While most low-income households are currently housed, they face a
precarious situation, especially those who are overpaying for housing amid the current market
conditions, putting them at risk of homelessness.

Specify particular housing characteristics that have been linked with instability and
an increased risk of homelessness:
The lack of affordable housing for lower -income households is closely linked to housing instability
and an increased risk of homelessness. Both owner -occupied and renter -occupied households
facing cost burdens —spending more than 30% and 50% of their income on housing —are
vulnerable to instability and homelessness.
Other factors contributing to housing instability and homelessness risk include prolonged
unemployment, foreclosure, mental illness, domestic violence, substance abuse (drugs and/or
alcohol), unexpected medical expenses, disabilities, and the transition from institutions such as
jail, mental health facilities, or skilled nursing care centers. Emergency or unforeseen expenses
can also lead to housing instability.
The City of Tustin collaborates with various programs and agenci to address these issues and
reduce the risk of instability. Tustin participates in the Count Orange's Continuum of Care
process and the Association of California Cities —Orange s Homelessness Task Force,
which helps the City stay informed about regional o eles elter and service needs.
Additionally, through its partnership with the Orange my Housi uthority (OCHA), Tustin
renters have access to OCHA's Family Self-Suffici Pro . This p gram prioritizes families
with children who are homeless or at risk of hom ss (those paying over 50% of their
household income in rent). Beyond housin assistan the program offers support services,
including job training and employment op s, t Ip participants achieve economic
independence.

Discussion:
Housing challenges continue to impact residents of Tustin, with the most significant issue being
the high cost of housing. To address this, the City of Tustin collaborates with the Orange County
Housing Authority, private developers, nonprofit developers, agencies like Neighborhood
Partnership Housing Services, and other government entities such as the State of California
Department of Housing and Community Development. These partnerships work to provide
resources that help make housing more affordable. The City is also proactive in seeking funding
opportunities to develop additional affordable rental housing.
Furthermore, Tustin has a certified 2021-2029 Housing Element and has taken specific actions
to align with the goals outlined in the certified Housing Element. These efforts include rezoning
and various City Code Amendments aimed at increasing affordable housing opportunities and
meeting the City's obligations under the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA).
However, limited funding for these activities makes the d
challenging. With the changing landscape of available funds

NA-15 Disproportionately Greater Need: Housing Problems — 91.205 (b)(2)
Introduction:
The Consolidated Plan must identify the specific needs of any racial or ethnic group that faces a
disproportionately greater need, meaning they experience one or more housing problems at a
higher rate than other groups within the same income category. According to HUD, "A
disproportionately greater need exists when members of a racial or ethnic group at a given income
level experience a housing problem at a rate that is at least 10 percentage points higher than the
income level as a whole." For example, if 60% of all low-income households in a jurisdiction face
housing problems, but 71 % of low-income Hispanic households face housing problems, then low-
income Hispanic households have a disproportionately greater need.
Housing problems include lacking complete kitchen or plumbing facilities, overcrowding (more
than 1.5 persons per room, excluding bathrooms, porches, foyers, halls, or half -rooms), and cost
burdens greater than 30%. .
Tables 9 through 12 provide data on the needs of racial groups across the following
income categories:
Extremely Low -Income (0-30% AMI)
Very Low -Income (30-50% AMI)
Low -Income (50-80% AMI)

data from these table treme w-I a and low-income households experience the highest
rates of housing pro s, with 8 3% and 81.12% of households, respectively, facing one or
more of the four housin ues. erms of ethnicity, the low-income Hispanic group shows the
greatest proportionate ne 38.82% reporting housing problems, followed by very low-
income Black/African Americ households at 18.88%, extremely low-income Pacific Islanders at
14.37%, very low-income Black/African American households at 13.57%, and American
Indian/Alaska Native households at 10.25%, all within their respective income categories.

Assess the need of any racial or ethnic group that has disproportionately greater need in comparison to
the needs of that category of need as a whole.
Introduction:
The Consolidated Plan must also identify the specific needs of any racial or ethnic group that
experiences a disproportionately greater incidence of severe housing problems, compared to
others within each specific income category. Severe housing problems include: lacking complete
kitchen facilities; lacking complete plumbing facilities; overcrowding (more than 1.5 persons per
room, excluding bathrooms, porches, foyers, halls, or half -rooms); and a cost burden greater than
50%. A disproportionately greater need exists when members of a racial or ethnic group at a given
income level experience severe housing problems at a rate that exceeds the overall rate for that
income level by 10 percentage points or more.
This section will examine data related to households experien
significantly higher rate. These problems include lacking c�
overcrowding, and a severe cost burden exceeding 50%

through 16. Based on the HUD -provided data in these tables, extremely low-income households
(74.97%) represent the highest percentage of households experiencing one of the four housing
problems. In terms of ethnicity, moderate -income Black/African American and Pacific Islander
groups have the greatest disproportionately greater need, at 47.62% and 77.92% respectively,
above the income group as a whole. Meanwhile, extremely low-income Pacific Islanders are
25.03% above their income group. It should be noted that within their respective income
categories, Black/African American and Pacific Islander ethnic ps represent less than 1 % of
the total population in each income category.

NA-25 Disproportionately Greater Need: Housing Cost Burdens — 91.205 (b)(2)
Assess the need of any racial or ethnic group that has a disproportionately greater need in comparison to
the needs of that category of need as a whole.
Introduction:
The Consolidated Plan further explores the concept of disproportionately greater need in relation
to Housing Cost Burden. According to HUD, a disproportionately greater housing cost burden
occurs when members of a racial or ethnic group at a specific income level experience a housing
cost burden at a rate 10% higher than the income level as a whole.
Table 17 provides data on housing cost burdens in the City of Tustin, broken down by racial and
ethnic categories. As defined by HUD, households with less than 30% of their income spent on
housing are not considered cost -burdened. Households that spend between 30-50% of their
income on housing -related costs are classified as cost-burdene hose with a housing cost -to -
income ratio greater than 50%, meaning they spend more th o of their income on housing -
related expenses, are considered severely cost -burden eholds with no or negative
income (not included in Table 17) are those with incom $0 or n tive due to factors such as
self-employment, dividends, and net rental income. If se househol cur housing costs, their
cost burden would be 100%.

Discussion:
[Exhibit 5 — NA-25 — Disproportionately Greater Need: Housing Cost Burdens provides expanded details
regarding the calculations stated in the following narrative.]
Based on the data presented in Table 17, a total of 26,325 households across all income groups
were surveyed to assess the extent to which low- to moderate -income households' experience
housing cost burdens. The findings reveal that the majority of Tustin households, 58.46%, are not
cost -burdened, meaning they pay less than 30% of their monthly income on housing expenses.
However, among those experiencing a housing cost burden (paying more than 30% of their
income for housing), a disproportionately greater burden is observed among White and Hispanic
households. Nearly 13% of White households and just over 17% of Hispanic households face a
greater housing cost burden compared to other racial/ethnic groups in the City. Additionally, these
two racial/ethnic groups also experience a disproportionately greater severe housing cost burden
(paying more than 50% of their income for housing expenses) t Aany other groups in Tustin.

Housing Cost Burden
In the City of Tustin, the majority of the population does not experience a housing cost burden,
with 58.08% of households spending less than 30% of their income on housing -related costs. A
smaller portion of the population, 22.21 %, is considered cost -burdened, paying between 30% and
50% of their income on housing. Among these cost -burdened households, the American
Indian/Alaska Native group has a disproportionately greater need, with 77.78% of individuals in
this group facing housing cost burdens.
Further data from Table 17 shows that 19.06% of the population is severely cost -burdened, paying
more than 50% of their household income on housing. Within this category, the Pacific Islander
population has a disproportionately greater need, with 91.84% of individuals in this group
experiencing severe cost burdens. It is important to note that both the American Indian/Alaska
Native and Pacific Islander populations represent less than half of a percent of the overall sample,
at 0.17% and 0.48%, respectively.

NA-40 Homeless Needs Assessment — 91.205(c)
Introduction:
To address the regional needs of homeless individuals and families, the City of Tustin actively
participates in the Continuum of Care (CoC) program, sponsored by the County of Orange. The
goal of the Continuum of Care Homeless Assistance Programs is to fund projects that fill gaps in
locally developed systems, helping homeless individuals transition to self-sufficiency and
permanent housing. The key objective of these efforts is to fund projects aligned with the
Department's mission to end chronic homelessness.
Orange County's Point -in -Time (PIT) Count, known as Everyone Counts OC, plays a crucial role
in establishing a baseline for the County's efforts in building a comprehensive, responsive System
of Care for individuals and families experiencing homelessness. T e 2024 PIT Count, conducted
by the County and the Orange County Continuum of Care, too ce during the week of January
22, 2024, as required by the U.S. Department of Housing an Development (HUD) every
two years. The sheltered count occurred on the night of,ya uary 024, while the unsheltered
count took place from January 23 through 25, 2024.
The County's 2024 PIT Count follows HUD li collecting key data on chronic
homelessness, disabling conditions, demographics (I ding single adults, families, veterans,
survivors of domestic violence, and youth), cific opulations. The methodology used
for the unsheltered count remains consistent h pr Counts in 2019 and 2022, allowing
for comparisons across the three co Vol s canvassed the entire county using ArcGIS
maps and a mobile survey applic to ntif ople experiencing unsheltered homelessness.
The survey, which includes H -requi est s as well as additional demographics, helps
the County gain a deeper unde g o elessness in Orange County. Once the data is
collected, the County's Ca oordination (OCC), in partnership with City Net and Hub
for Urban Initiatives, r ws an dr s any discrepancies to ensure the accuracy of the final
count. The survey re are then mpiled and analyzed for the PIT Count summary.
According to the most rec d rom the Point -in -Time (PIT) Count, 423 homeless individuals
were identified in Tustin, with (20.8%) being unsheltered and 335 (79.2%) sheltered. While the
2024 PIT Count has limited data for Tustin, it provides data for broader subareas, including the
Central Service Planning Area, of which Tustin is a part. Table 21 outlines the 2024 PIT
Count data for both the entire County and the Central Service Planning Area, where applicable.
This data will be used to ensure residents have access to fair housing resources and services.
The City is also involved in additional efforts to combat homelessness, including its participation
in the Association of California Cities - Orange County's Homelessness Task Force and the United
to End Homelessness coalition through Orange County United Way. Additionally, the City
collaborates with the Tustin Police Department, CityNet, the Orange County Health Care Agency
(PERT Mental Health Services), the Orange County Rescue Mission, and the Tustin -based
nonprofit Operation Warm Wishes to provide essential resources and services to the transient
homeless population in Tustin.

transportation, case management, information and referrals, a shared housing program, senior
activities, health and fitness programs, and other recreational activities to help meet the needs of
this population.
Additionally, the City allocates CDBG funds to Meals on Wheels Orange County, which provides
meal services to homebound elderly individuals, ensuring they receive proper nutrition and
support. The City also continues to refer individuals with special needs —such as those with
disabilities (mental, physical, and developmental), alcohol or drug dependencies, and those with
HIV/AIDS—to appropriate agencies for specialized care and assistance.

Data from the 2024 Orange County Point -in -Time Count (Table 21) reveals that the
highest number of unsheltered homeless individuals are adults, with 3,993 unsheltered, while
the highest number of sheltered individuals are also adults, with 2,195 provided shelter.
Although there is no specific data for unaccompanied youth in the City of Tustin, six
transitional -aged youth were sheltered. The table does not include data on the homeless
senior population in Tustin, but countywide, there are 222 unsheltered seniors and 288
sheltered seniors.
Regarding chronic homelessness, the Point -in -Time Count does not provide specific numbers
for chronic homelessness within each Service Planning Area or city. However, countywide, the

Discussion:
The City of Tustin acknowledges that homelessness is a regional issue that requires a collective
approach from all jurisdictions, regardless of individual circumstances. As part of its efforts to
address homelessness, the City highlights the Homeless Accommodation Plan, established for
the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan area (formerly the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan area). This plan
provides essential supportive housing and services to help homeless individuals and families
transition from homelessness to greater self-sufficiency. The plan includes 387 beds at the Village
of Hope facility, an increase of 195 beds, which supports the goal of moving homeless individuals
and families to permanent housing within 24 months. The facility also offers supportive services
designed to address the unique needs of homeless persons.
Additional homeless service providers operating in the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan area include
the Orange County Social Services Tustin Family Campus, Nation Army, Orange Coast
Interfaith, Families Forward, Human Options, and Temporary lter, Inc.
In addition, during the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan

at providing housing and support services to families with children who are experiencing

To address both emergency shelter and transitional housing needs, the City will continue to
prioritize allocating CDBG funds to homeless service agencies. Furthermore, the City will maintain
its involvement in the County of Orange's Continuum of Care program, which provides supportive
services and housing for the homeless and at -risk populations. The City will also continue its
strategy of referring homeless individuals and families to appropriate service agencies and
organizations and will continue to support these agencies through financial contributions for
shelter and other services for the homeless.

NA-45 Non -Homeless Special Needs Assessment - 91.205 (b,d)
Introduction:
Certain segments of the population may face greater challenges in finding decent and affordable
housing due to unique circumstances and may require specific accommodation or assistance to
meet their housing needs. Special needs groups include the elderly, individuals with disabilities
(including those with developmental disabilities), female -headed households, and large families.
The City of Tustin acknowledges the needs of these populations and has established goals and
priorities to address them effectively.
Describe the characteristics of special needs populations in your community:
The special needs of many elderly household's stem from their
disabilities, and the need for assistance. According to 2022

portive service needs of these populations and how are
The special housing needs of the elderly are a significant concern for the City of Tustin. Many
retired individuals are on fixed, low incomes, which puts them at greater risk of housing
overpayment. Additionally, the elderly often have specific needs related to housing construction
and location. To enhance accessibility and mobility, elderly individuals may require modifications
such as ramps, handrails, and lower cupboards and counters. In terms of location, due to limited
mobility, they also need easy access to public facilities, such as medical services, shopping areas,
and public transit.
For persons with disabilities, access and affordability are the two primary housing concerns.
Access is particularly critical for those who are physically disabled, as they often need specially
designed housing that includes features like lowered countertops, wider doorways, and modified

bathrooms, as well as accessible paths to and from the property. A significant challenge for many
individuals in this demographic is that they are often on fixed, lower incomes and may depend on
federal or state aid, further complicating their ability to secure affordable housing.
Female -headed households with children primarily face affordability challenges, as they tend to
have lower -than -average incomes. These households also have a significant need for affordable
childcare. As a result, finding suitable housing near essential services, schools, and public
transportation becomes difficult due to financial constraints.
Large family households require special consideration because they typically need larger homes
with enough bedrooms to prevent overcrowding. However, there is a limited availability of 3+
bedroom apartment units in Tustin to meet the needs of large families. Additionally, households
with five or more members are more likely to be below the national poverty level, which makes it
challenging to find adequate housing. Renters face even more 'culty since multifamily rental
units tend to be smaller than single-family homes. As a result, I families often experience both
overcrowding and affordability issues disproportionately.

Discussion:
The City of Tustin is committed to addressing the needs of its non -homeless special needs
population. The City enhances coordination with the public and assisted housing providers, as
well as private and governmental health, mental health, and service agencies. This is
accomplished through developing strong working relationships with these organizations,
gathering input through public participation processes, and seeking professional advice and
recommendations.
The City also collaborates with County and State offices by making necessary referrals,
particularly for housing in residential care facilities with six or fewer residents, in compliance with
State regulations. Additionally, the City keeps an up-to-date listing of the County and State's
licensed facilities that offer supportive housing, regularly receiving updates from the State's
Community Care Licensing - Residential Division Office in Santa a. Referrals are also made to
the Orange County Public Housing Authority for low-income i iduals with special needs who
seek affordable housing options.

New Parks & Park Improvements:
The 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan cycle encourages prioritizing construction of new park facilities
and improvements to existing parks, benefiting all Tustin residents Citywide. Tustin's parks are
widely used by youth for sports and recreational activities, making it a priority to ensure these
facilities are safe and well -maintained. Additionally, there is a focus on adding new park amenities
to address the increasing demand due to the development of residential communities in the Tustin
Legacy Area. It is important to note that CDBG funding will onl be allocated for facilities and
improvements within the CDBG Low/Moderate Income Censuct Target Area (Appendix C).

Street/Sidewalk Improvements
The City identified street and sidewalk improvements as a public facilities priority with relation to
facilities in need of repair within the CDBG Low/Moderate Income Target Area.
How were these needs determined?
The majority of the street and sidewalk improvements as well as other types of infrastructure in
the target area were constructed more than 30 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.
The City of Tustin's public improvements needs were determined based on feedback from the
community and consultations with City Staff. A&

is a high priority citywide, the CDBG Low/Moderate Income Census Tract Target Area is a specific
area of focus for crime prevention activities given the increasing population density and increasing
need for police services. The population is a potential target for crime which could be prevented
through the implementation of crime awareness programs.

NA-15 — Disproportionately Greater Need: Housing Problems
(Detailed Calculations)
The Consolidated Plan must identify the specific needs of any racial or ethnic group that has a disproportionately
greater need, experiencing one or more of the housing problems, in comparison to others in each specific income
category as a whole. According to HUD, "A disproportionately greater need exists when the members of a racial or
ethnic group at a given income level experience a housing problem at a greater rate (10% points or more) than the
income level as a whole." For example, if 60% of all low-income households within a jurisdiction have a housing
problem, and 71% of low-income Hispanic households have a housing problem, low-income Hispanic have a
disproportionately greater need.
Housing problems include: lacking complete kitchen facilities; lacking complete plumbing facilities; overcrowding
(more than 1.5 persons per room not including bathrooms, porches, foyers, lj&, or half -rooms); and, a cost burden
greater than 30 percent.

NA-20 — Disproportionately Greater Need: Severe Housing Problems
(Detailed Calculations)
The Consolidated Plan must identify the specific needs of any racial or ethnic group that has a
disproportionately greater need, experiencing one or more of the severe housing problems, in comparison
to others in each specific income category as a whole. According to HUD, "A disproportionately greater
need exists when the members of a racial or ethnic group at a given income level experience a housing
problem at a greater rate (10% points or more) than the income level as a whole." For example, if 60% of
all low-income households within a jurisdiction have a severe housing problem, and 71% of low-income
Hispanic households have a housing problem, low-income Hispanic have a disproportionately greater
need because this group is 11% points higher than all other ethnic grlops.

MA-15 Housing Market Analysis: Cost of Housing - 91.210(a)
Introduction:
Following county and statewide trends, the cost of housing in the City of Tustin has risen
significantly over the past five years. Data from HUD, as shown in Tables 3 and 4, illustrates the
increase in housing costs for both owners and renters between 2009 and 2020. Both tables
indicate a rise in housing costs for both owner -occupied and renter -occupied households.
Table 5 of the Needs Assessment reveals that 6,935 renter -occupied households (26.2% of total
households) and 2,225 owner -occupied households (8.4% of total households) spend more than
30% of their income on housing costs, putting them at high risk for homelessness and other
economic challenges. According to the 2023 American Community Survey 1-Year Estimates, the
median gross rent for renter -occupied households in Tustin is $2,615, and 61.8% of these
households spend over 30% of their monthly income on housing
HUD data in Table 3 shows that the median home value in increased by 35% from 2009
to 2020, reaching $693,000. Since 2020, home prices ha Wurg IVmatically, driven in part by
pandemic -related financial stabilization measures, inc g extremqWW mortgage rates of 2%

According to Zillow, the average home value in Tus r 4 is $1,132,048, reflecting an 11.6%
increase from 2023 and a 39% increase since 2020. A onally, the 2023 American Community

Is there sufficient housing for households at all income levels?
According to Table 5, the majority of rental housing in Tustin is affordable to individuals with low-
income levels, based on 2016-2020 CHAS data. Many of the units accessible to the extremely
low (0%-30% HAMFI*), very low (30%-50% HAMFI), and low (50%-80% HAMFI) income
populations are rental units. As a result, fewer ownership units are available to these income
groups, with most of the available ownership housing being accessible to those at the 80%-100%
HAMFI income level. The very low- and low-income populations are similar in size, but both face
limited housing options. Additionally, no data was available on the number of units for purchase
by the extremely low-income population.

MA-20 Housing Market Analysis: Condition of Housing — 91.210(a)
Introduction:
The housing stock in Tustin is gradually aging, with over 46% of all owner -occupied and renter -
occupied homes being over 45 years old. As the housing stock continues to age, the percentage
of units in poor condition will increase unless proper maintenance and rehabilitation are carried
out. This is particularly common in lower -income areas where funds for repairs are often
unavailable. Every resident of Tustin deserves suitable and affordable living conditions, but home
repairs can become costly.
Approximately 42% of all occupied housing units in Tustin have at least one selected condition.
For this section, selected conditions include lacking complete plumbing or kitchen facilities, having
more than one person per room, and experiencing a cost burden greater than 30%. According to
the 2022 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, very fccupied units (1.61 %, or 426
units) lack complete plumbing or kitchen facilities.

Describe the need for owner and rental rehabilitation based on the condition of the
jurisdiction's housing.
Given the age of the City's housing stock, with 46% of units over 45 years old, it is anticipated
that a significant number of units will require repairs and/or rehabilitation, particularly for major
housing systems such as roofs, heating and air conditioning, plumbing, and electrical. These
critical components typically have a life expectancy of 15 to 30 years and will soon need to be
replaced. The Community Assessment Survey identified programs that assist low- and moderate -
income renters and homeowners with new affordable units, down -payment assistance and energy
efficiency improvements as the highest priority.

paint dust, contaminat d rated lead -based paint found on accessible surfaces,

particularly for childre ad pois ng remains one of the most common and preventable health
risks for children in the U St . Even low levels of lead in a child's blood can cause harmful
effects on their physical an elopmental health. Children are more vulnerable because their
growing bodies absorb more lead, and they frequently put their hands and objects in their mouths.
Additionally, their brains and nervous systems are more sensitive to lead's damaging effects.
Residents living in housing built before 1978 are considered at risk of exposure to lead -based
paint. Older homes are more likely to contain lead -based paint, with the amount of lead pigment
increasing as the age of the housing rises. As mentioned earlier, 50% of Tustin's occupied
housing stock was built before 1980 and may contain lead -based paint. To address this, the City's
Home Repair Program will follow federal guidelines for handling lead -based paint.
According to the 2022 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates (Table S1702), 8.1% of
Tustin's families live below the poverty level. Assuming these families reside in older areas of the
City, it can be estimated that around 1,080 housing units occupied by low- or moderate -income
families may be at risk of lead -based paint exposure. Additionally, 10.5% of families living in
poverty have children under five years old, which suggests that approximately 113 units may
present a higher risk for lead -based paint hazards. This analysis does not account for the likely

presence of a larger population of households with incomes above the poverty level but below
low- and moderate -income thresholds living in older units, which could significantly increase the
estimated number of units at risk.
Discussion:
Although around 81 % of Tustin's housing was built 25 years ago or earlier, the overall condition
of the housing remains generally good. According to the City's Code Enforcement team and the
Neighborhood Improvement Task Force —comprised of staff from various City departments —
roughly 15% of the housing stock requires minor repairs. About 5% of the housing units,
particularly four-plexes in the southwest neighborhood (CDBG Low/Mod Census Tract Target
Area), may need significant rehabilitation. Code Enforcement estimates that around 200 illegal
units or conversions exist citywide, which would need to either meet City Code standards or be
demolished. To date, no housing units have been identified as requiring replacement. The City of
Tustin actively addresses housing conditions through its CodeApforcement program and the
Neighborhood Improvement Task Force, which together help id y homes in need of repair and
provide the necessary assistance to keep the housing stockjioWd condition.

Describe mainstream services, such as health, mental health, and employment
services to the extent those services are use to complement services targeted to
homeless persons:
To complement Tustin's homeless services, the State Department of Developmental Services
(DDS) provides community -based support to approximately 400,000 individuals with
developmental disabilities and their families through a network of 21 regional centers, four
developmental centers, and two community -based facilities. The Regional Center of Orange
County (RCOC) is one of these 21 regional centers in California, serving as a point of entry for
services for individuals with developmental disabilities. RCOC is a private, non-profit community
agency that partners with local businesses to offer a wide variety of services to individuals with
developmental disabilities and their families.

MA-35 Special Needs Facilities and Services — 91.210(d)
Introduction:
Certain segments of the population may face greater challenges in finding decent, affordable
housing due to their unique circumstances and special needs. This includes the elderly and frail
elderly, individuals with mental, physical, or developmental disabilities, those struggling with
alcohol or drug addiction, persons living with HIV/AIDS and their families, as well as victims of
domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. These groups may require
specific housing modifications or support services to meet their needs.
While these non -homeless special needs populations are not automatically at risk of
homelessness, without adequate supportive housing and services, they are more likely to remain
in poverty and may eventually face homelessness or institutionalization. In preparing the
Consolidated Plan, Tustin addresses the needs of these speci pulations and evaluates the
suitability of the housing stock to accommodate their require s, as outlined below.

Currently, the City of Tustin has a total of 325 ni o g units, many of which are affordable,
as well as 24 assisted living fQ'.e a able senior housingunits include 99 units at
Tustin Gardens, which are restiors, -unit project at Tustin Terrace for seniors with
limited incomes, 53 units at H 53 units at Coventry Court, available to very
low-income (36 units), low-' s), and moderate -income (56 units) seniors.
The special housin eds of t Id are a significant concern for Tustin, especially since
many retired individu ve on fix low incomes, making them more vulnerable to housing cost
burdens. Additionally, e r ents often require housing modifications to accommodate
mobility and accessibility ne uch as ramps, handrails, and lower cupboards and counters. In
terms of location, seniors typically need easy access to public services like medical care,
shopping, and public transportation due to limited mobility. Two facilities catering to elderly
residents with specialized needs include Silverado Tustin Hacienda Memory Care Community
and The Groves of Tustin Senior Living.
Elderly individuals may also need security devices for their homes to ensure personal safety.
Many prefer to remain in their own homes rather than move to a retirement community, so they
may require assistance with home repairs and yard work. It is essential to maintain their dignity,
self-respect, and quality of life. Transportation is another key concern for seniors, as many lack
private vehicles due to physical or financial limitations. Reliable transportation to medical
appointments, senior centers, meal sites, and shopping is vital for many elderly residents.
The major county providers of programs specifically for older adults in Orange County include:

MA-40 Barriers to Affordable Housing — 91.210(e)
Describe any negative effects of public policies on affordable housing and residential
investment:
As outlined by the Consolidated Plan regulations, a barrier to affordable housing is any public
policy, including land use controls, property taxes, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and
charges, growth limits, and other related policies. These barriers arise when incentives for
developing affordable housing are diminished due to excessive development costs or a lack of
community support. While some development costs are influenced by economic conditions and
other market factors beyond local government control, the development of affordable housing is
also impacted by federal, state, and local housing policies, as well as the "Not In My Backyard"
(NIMBY) attitude.
Although federal and state environmental regulations are

community concerns that may influence the cost of develo

Housing Development Fees
The City and various external agencies (e.g., school districts, sewer/sanitation agencies) charge
fees and assessments to cover the costs of processing permits and providing essential services
and facilities, such as utilities, schools, and infrastructure. These fees are generally assessed
based on the principle of cost recovery, distributed proportionally to the project's impact or the
extent of the benefits derived.
Tustin is a highly urbanized area, with most of its infrastructure, including streets, sewer, and
water facilities, already established. However, site improvements can still significantly increase
the cost of housing development. Cost-effective site planning and the use of housing set -aside
funds for projects within redevelopment areas can help reduce these site improvement costs.

Employment projections from 2016 to 2040 indicate that employment in the City of Tustin is

retail shopping trends, with more customers making purchases online, there is expected to be a
decreased demand for retail space, which could potentially affect retail employment moving

Describe the workforce and infrastructure needs of the business community:
Nearly half of Tustin's active workforce has completed a college education. Many of the City's
residents commute to neighboring cities or further for work, with an average commute time
exceeding 30 minutes. Creating local employment opportunities would benefit the community,
particularly by establishing a balance between jobs and housing. This includes working with
existing businesses to expand and attract new companies in targeted industries, as well as
supporting business startups. Encouraging the relocation of companies to Tustin and enhancing
transportation options would also have a positive impact on the local workforce. Additionally, job
training, skill development, and education tailored to the needs of local industries would be crucial
for improving employment prospects for Tustin residents.

workforce correspond to
According to Table 14, which includes data from the 2011-2015 ACS, there are 33,769 workers
in the workforce and 42,413 jobs available in the City of Tustin, indicating a surplus of jobs relative
to workers. However, a closer look at the breakdown of businesses by sector reveals that certain
industries have more workers than available jobs. These industries include agriculture, mining, oil
and gas extraction, education and healthcare services, and transportation and warehousing. The
most significant imbalance is seen in the retail trade sector, with a shortage of 2,492 workers,
followed by finance, insurance, and real estate (with a deficit of 1,956 workers) and construction
(with a shortage of 1,656 workers).
These trends represent a shift from pre -pandemic patterns. Notably, the construction sector has
seen a reversal. Before the pandemic, there were more workers in construction than available
jobs, but post -pandemic —despite a booming construction market —there is now a shortage of
construction workers. During the early days of the pandemic, construction activities slowed, and

many workers left the industry to pursue other opportunities. The resulting decrease in

now being offered to attract workers back into the sector.

This section of the Consolidated Plan includes CPD Maps that illustrate the concentration of
families with Extremely Low Income, Low Income, and Moderate Income who are experiencing
at least one of the four severe housing problems outlined in the Needs Assessment section of
this Plan. These families are predominantly concentrated within Tustin's CDBG Low/Mod Census

"concentration" refers to census tracts where 51 % or more of the population is affected by one of
the four housing problems.

Describe the need for broadband wiring and connections for households, including

The internet has become a crucial platform for communication and information, enabling users to
benefit from the interconnectedness of business, education, commerce, and daily activities.
Reliable internet access is increasingly essential for success in today's economy. Communities
without broadband access face challenges in keeping up with broader trends, limiting their ability
to access educational and entrepreneurial opportunities online. This issue is especially significant
in low- and moderate -income (LMI) areas, where economic opportunities are already limited.

MA-65 Hazard Mitigation - 91.210(a)(5), 91.310(a)(3)
Describe the jurisdiction's increased natural hazard risks associated with climate
change.
The City of Tustin's 2019 Hazard Mitigation Plan outlines an analysis of various hazards, including
earthquakes, extreme heat, wildfires, drought, windstorms, dam/reservoir failure, mass transit
accidents, power failures, terrorism, pandemics, hazardous materials releases, and flooding.
However, it does not specifically address climate change. The most recent Hazard Mitigation Plan
published by the County of Orange in 2020 acknowledges that climate change will exacerbate
the severity and frequency of other hazards, such as wildfires, flooding/storms, and tsunamis (due
to sea level rise). As a result, the hazard analysis process will become more complex, and specific
climate change hazards, like sea level rise, may be incorporated into future updates.

interconnectedness of ects makes it difficult to estimate financial damages accurately.
The impacts of climate change can be classified into three categories: economic, environmental,
and social.
Social impacts would involve public safety, health concerns, reduced quality of life, and
inequalities in the distribution of impacts and disaster relief. Many of the economic and
environmental impacts also have significant social components. For instance, migration from
coastal areas could lead to increased pressure on social infrastructure in other regions.
Municipalities will face difficult decisions regarding which critical assets to protect, relocate, or
remove, while also determining what is economically feasible. Balancing goals such as protecting
essential infrastructure, maintaining coastal recreation, and safeguarding ecosystems will be a
complex challenge. Agencies must recognize potential conflicts and prioritize actions, working
closely with regulatory bodies to develop solutions.

Strategic Plan Overview:
The Strategic Plan section summarizes the City's five-year goals to address community needs
described earlier in the Consolidated Plan. The City strives to accomplish these goals by
maximizing and utilizing all available funding resources to conduct housing and community
development activities that will serve the low -moderate income residents of the City of Tustin. By
focusing resources to the priority needs and creating opportunities at the individual and
neighborhood levels, the City hopes to improve the quality of life for residents.
For the 2025 to 2029 period, the City has identified seven (7) priority needs which have been
developed according to the City Council's Strategic Plan, CDBG gram eligibility, and feedback
from the Tustin community. These needs and goal stater ill also allow the City to update
and align to how activities are structured and reported 0 tegrated Disbursement and

to critical services and programs such as youth programming, job training, transportation,
legal services, senior programming, medical care, and other social services. In addition, the
need for comprehensive homeless services, programming and facilities is a critical need
within the City. This need includes early intervention homeless prevention, increasing the
supply of emergency and transitional shelter options, permanent housing solutions, and the
provision of critical services to those who are at -risk of becoming homeless, currently
homeless, or recently homeless.

SP-35 Anticipated Resources - 91.215(a)(4), 91.220(c)(1,2)
Introduction:
There are several potential funding sources that could help the City of Tustin address its housing
and community development priorities, as well as the specific objectives outlined in the Strategic
Plan component of the Consolidated Plan. However, due to reduced levels of State and federal
funding compared to previous years, the financial resources currently available to the City are
somewhat limited. Despite these challenges, the City will continue to seek additional funding
opportunities throughout the fiscal year.
The City's goal is to maximize the use of available federal, State, and local funds to build a thriving
community, create new affordable housing opportunities, and maintain and preserve existing
housing. Section SP-45 (Goals Summary) of the Consolidated P includes the City's estimates
for CDBG and General Fund allocations to support each goa

Assess of Strengths and Gaps in the Institutional Delivery System:
In its current configuration, the City's institutional structure is well balanced in offering
opportunities to various agencies and organizations. The City actively encourages a system for
sharing resources and information through networking with other organizations such as federal,
state, county, and local non-profit agencies. The current listing reflects agencies that are receiving
CDBG funding for at least the duration of the 2024-25 funding cycle and thus will be providing
services to Tustin residents, as well as agencies who provide additional services and/or homeless
services to the community such as the Orange County Housing Authority, Mercy House, Laurel
House, Olive Crest and Orange County Health Care Agency.

SP-55 Barriers to affordable housing — 91.215(h)
Barriers to Affordable Housing
Barriers or impediments to affordable housing are caused when the incentive to develop this
housing is removed due to excessive development costs or the lack of community
commitment. Some development costs are motivated by economic conditions and other issues
that affected the real estate market, and are outside the control of local government. In addition,
the development of affordable housing is affected by both the economic market conditions and
the housing policies of federal, state and local governments, and the "Not In My Back Yard"
(NIMBY) phenomenon.

the following fundamental guiding principles:
a. Coordination and cWeration among the Cities of Tustin and Irvine, support service
providers, school districts and advocates for the homeless should be promoted.
b. Creating a program and service system separate from the mainstream is inefficient and
not consistent with the concept of breaking the cycle of homelessness.
c. Established public and private providers should be used for delivery on -site or off -site (by
contracting and visiting clinical personnel) of certain program and services. This should be the
preferred approach and will assist in the streamlining and consolidation of existing programs.
d. Linkages with job -training, employment and education should be encouraged.

As stated above, the City of Tustin participates in the County of Orange Continuum of Care
process and the Association of California Cities — Orange County's Homelessness Task
Force. Through this process the City is able to keep current with the region's homeless shelter
and service needs. Additionally, through its partnership with the Orange County Housing Authority
(OCHA), Tustin renter households have access to OCHA's 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.
Tustin has allocated the maximum allowable amount of its CDBG funds to public service
programs. While some of the organizations funded do noXddirectll erve the homeless, many of
their activities may help prevent homelessness. These actde counseling programs for

SP-65 Lead based paint Hazards — 91.215(i)
Actions to address LBP hazards and increase access to housing without LBP hazards
In Orange County, lead poisoning is addressed by the Orange County Health Care Agency Public
Health Services' Lead Poisoning Prevention Program. The Lead Poisoning Prevention Program
provides services to the community to increase awareness of lead hazards, and provides
resources to parents, medical providers, homeowners, contractors, and workers.
According to 2016 — 2020 ACS data, approximately 6,140 owner -occupied and 7,210 renter -
occupied housing units within the City of Tustin were constructed before 1980 and have the
potential to contain lead -based paint. With the potential for lead -based paint hazards, the City will
utilize a Lead Hazards Review Worksheet which demonstrates compliance with HUD's Lead Safe
Housing Rule found within 24 CFR Part 35, and will work with c ctors to identify and address
lead -based paint hazards in federally -funded housing reha tion projects. Where disturbed
paint is observed, or if paint will be disturbed as part of t eh 'tation activities, the City will
provide interim controls where lead -based paint is foun order to er efforts to reduce lead -

How are the actions listed above related to the extent of lead poisoning and
hazards?
Older housing is more likely to have lead -based paint, and the amount of lead pigment in the paint
tends to increase with the age of the housing. Nearly half of Tustin's owner -occupied housing
stock (53%) and 46% of all renter -occupied housing stock was built after 1980, when the use of
lead -based paint was outlawed, eliminating the risk of lead -based paint hazards for residents of
these homes. The properties most at risk are those with deteriorated units, particularly those with
leaky roofs and plumbing. It can also be assumed that lower income households often occupy
older, lower cost housing units, and residents occupying older housing units experience the
highest incidence of lead -based poisoning. Rental units built before 1980 constitute 56% of the

paint identification and reduction in federally -funded housing rehabilitation projects.
How are the actions listed above integrated into housing policies and procedures?
When federal funds are used to assist in the rehabilitation of housing units, testing for lead -based
paint is required. When lead -based paint is found, the abatement efforts are included in the scope
of the rehabilitation assistance.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities — 91.220(i)
Introduction:
To address the regional needs of homeless individuals and families, the City of Tustin participates
in the Continuum of Care (CoC) program sponsored by the County of Orange. The purpose of
the Continuum of Care Homeless Assistance Programs is to fund projects that fill gaps in the
locally developed Continuum of Care system, helping homeless individuals move toward self-
sufficiency and permanent housing. A key component of this effort is funding projects that align
with the Department's goal of ending chronic homelessness.
Orange County's Point -In -Time (PIT) Count, branded as Everyone Counts OC, plays a critical
role in establishing a baseline for the County's efforts to build a comprehensive and responsive
System of Care for individuals and families experiencing homelessness. The County and the
Orange County Continuum of Care conducted the 2024 PIT C t during the week of January
22, 2024, as required biennially by the U.S. Department o sing and Urban Development
(HUD). The sheltered count took place on the night of n January 22, 2024, and the
unsheltered count occurred between Tuesday, Janu 3, 2024, Thursday, January 25,
2024.
According to the most recent data, on any given niW Tustin, approximately 88 homeless

For other special -nee oups w are not homeless, the City's Senior Center offers support to
the elderly and frail e ices provided include transportation, case management,
information and referrals, sh ousing programs, senior activities, health and fitness programs,
and recreational activities.
The City allocates CDBG funds to Meals on Wheels Orange County to provide meal services to
homebound elderly individuals. Additionally, the City will continue to refer individuals with special
needs —such as persons with disabilities (mental, physical, and developmental), those with
alcohol or drug dependencies, and individuals with HIV/AIDS—to the appropriate agencies.
For PY 2025-26, the following organizations will utilize CDBG funding to provide homeless
services and special needs support: Goodwill of Orange County, Human Options, Families
Forward, Family Promise of OC, and Mary's Path.

Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless
persons
The City of Tustin and the Orange County Rescue Mission have entered into a ground lease
agreement to support the construction and rehabilitation of a 5.1-acre site, which will become a
192-unit emergency and transitional housing project at the former MCAS Tustin. The Village of
Hope has expanded its transitional housing capacity, increasing to 387 beds, a rise of 195 beds.
This emergency and transitional housing facility is currently operational.
Additionally, please refer to the earlier description of the new low -barrier homeless shelter in
Tustin, which provides critical assistance to homeless individuals within the community.
The City is also working to expand transitional housing options through the recent opening of the
"House of Ruth" project by HomeAid Orange County in partnersh' ith Family Promise of Orange
County. This project consists of a newly constructed seven-u ility and family resource center,

allocated to Goodwill of Orange County to provide emergency grants to veterans and their families
who are at risk of homelessness. This program has the potential to prevent homelessness for
veterans and their families by providing the financial support necessary to keep them housed.
Additionally, services for homeless and at -risk veterans will be provided through Patriots & Paws,
an organization that helps low-income and at -risk veterans furnish their homes and apartments.
The City also acknowledges the valuable efforts of local nonprofits and churches that work
tirelessly to provide support and services for the homeless in the community.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially
extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged
from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities,
mental health facilities, foster care and other yout cilities, and corrections
programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance public or private agencies
that address housing, health, social services, loy t, education, or youth
needs.
The following strategy not only addresses the City stin's efforts to assist individuals and
families in avoiding becoming homeless reuse a overall strategy for assisting the
homeless with individual needs, transition o e , and permanent housing needs.
The strategy addresses the followin
1. Helping low-income fa ' s avo' eco homeless.
2. Reaching out to homele sessing their individual needs.
3. Addressing the e cy ter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons.
4. Helping home pers m the transition to permanent housing and independent
living.
The City of Tustin will mee beds of homeless persons and homeless families with children
through the following strategl .
1. Continue to refer homeless persons and homeless families with children to service
agencies and organizations;
2. Support agencies which provide shelter and other services to the homeless through
financial contributions funded through the CDBG Program.
3. Provide for and support the establishment of a homeless accommodation strategy in the
reuse of Marine Corps Air Station, Tustin. The City of Tustin has prepared a
Reuse/Specific Plan for Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Tustin, which was closed July
1999. The Reuse Plan provides the following fundamental guiding principles:
a. Coordination and cooperation among the Cities of Tustin and Irvine, support service
providers, school districts and advocates for the homeless should be promoted.

Docusign Envelope ID: 69AC4BE1-C8C1-48ED-981C-2B9F4B7E6EE8
b. Creating a program and service system separate from the mainstream is inefficient and
not consistent with the concept of breaking the cycle of homelessness.
c. Established public and private providers should be used for delivery on -site or off -site (by
contracting and visiting clinical personnel) of certain program and services. This should be the
preferred approach and will assist in the streamlining and consolidation of existing programs.
d. Linkages with job -training, employment and education should be encouraged.
As previously mentioned, the City of Tustin participates in the County of Orange's Continuum of
Care process and the Association of California Cities — Orange County's Homelessness Task
Force. This collaboration allows the City to stay informed about the region's homeless shelter and
service needs. Through its partnership with the Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA), Tustin
renter households also have access to OCHA's Family Self -Su ncy Program. Preference for
this program is given to families with children who are homel r at risk of becoming homeless,
such as those spending over 50 percent of their income on t. I dition to housing assistance,

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing — 91.220(j)
Introduction:
Barriers or impediments to affordable housing are caused when the incentive to develop this
housing is removed due to excessive development costs or the lack of community
commitment. Some development costs are motivated by economic conditions and other issues
that affected the real estate market, and are outside the control of local government. In addition,
the development of affordable housing is affected by both the economic market conditions and
the housing policies of federal, state and local governments, and the "Not In My Back Yard"
(NIMBY) phenomenon.
Although federal and state environmental regulations are implemented at the local level, these
policies have and seem to continue to add to the cost of d lopment. Public policy and
community issues that may potentially affect the cost of de vel ent and housing projects within
the City include the following:
Land use development

Introduction:
The five-year Consolidated Plan includes a housing and homeless needs assessment, outlining
estimated housing needs for Low- and Moderate -income residents, special needs populations,
and the homeless. During the 2025-26 Program Year, the City of Tustin will take the following
actions to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs, focusing on goals such as fostering
and maintaining affordable housing, removing barriers to affordable housing, developing
institutional structures, enhancing coordination between public and private housing and social
services agencies, improving public housing, and utilizing available federal, state, and local
resources.

In Orange County, lead poisoning is addressed by the Orange County Health Care Agency Public
Health Services' Lead Poisoning Prevention Program. The Lead Poisoning Prevention Program
provides services to the community to increase awareness of lead hazards, and provides
resources to parents, medical providers, homeowners, contractors, and workers.
According to 2016 — 2020 ACS data, approximately 6,140 owner -occupied and 7,210 renter -
occupied housing units within the City of Tustin were constructed before 1980 and have the
potential to contain lead -based paint. With the potential for lead -based paint hazards, the City will
utilize a Lead Hazards Review Worksheet which demonstrates compliance with HUD's Lead Safe
Housing Rule found within 24 CFR Part 35, and will work with contractors to identify and address
lead -based paint hazards in federally -funded housing rehabilitation projects. Where disturbed
paint is observed, or if paint will be disturbed as part of the rehabilitation activities, the City will
provide interim controls where lead -based paint is found. In order to further efforts to reduce lead -

based paint hazards, the City will continue to seek partnerships with organizations such as the
Orange County Public Health Care Agency Public Services.
To additionally address the potential threat of lead -based paint within homes in Tustin, the City
will implement into its housing policies over the next five years the following:
• Include lead -based paint hazard reduction as an eligible rehabilitation activity through the
City's CDBG grant program.
• Review existing regulations, housing and rehabilitation codes to assure lead- based paint
hazard reduction is incorporated.
• Require testing and hazard reduction in conjunction with rehabilitation.
• Require inspections for lead at appropriate times when housing is otherwise being
inspected or evaluated.
• Removal of lead -based paint is also a priority health
