Introduction
2029 Consolidated Plan (Con-year strategic
planning document that identifies priority housing and community development needs and
establishes strategies to address those needs. The ConPlan assesses local conditions related to
housing, homelessness, non-homeless special needs populations, community development, and
economic opportunity. It also outlines how federal resources will be invested to address these
needs and improve the quality of life for Tustin residents.
Through the ConPlan, the City establishes a framework for the use of federal funding from the
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to support three primary objectives:
providing decent housing, creating a suitable living environment, and expanding economic
opportunities, particularly for low- and moderate-income (LMI) residents. This framework includes
programs such as the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), authorized by the Housing
and Community Development Act of 1974, which supports these same objectives by helping
communities develop viable urban areas.
To be eligible for funding, all CDBG-supported activities must meet at least one of the following
national objectives:
Benefit low- and moderate-income persons;
Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums and blight; and,
Address urgent community development needs.
The City of Tustin is an entitlement jurisdiction and receives an annual allocation of CDBG funds
directly from HUD based on population and other federal formula factors.
The ConPlan serves several important functions for the City. It provides a strategic framework for
addressing housing and community development needs, establishes priorities and funding
strategies for federal resources, and guides program policies and investments over the five-year
planning period. The ConPlan is informed by data analysis as well as input from residents,
community stakeholders, service providers, and public agencies.
Each year during the ConPlan cycle, the City prepares a one-year Action Plan that describes how
federal housing and community development funds will be allocated to address identified priority
n Plan
identifies funded activities, allocated resources, and anticipated outcomes, supporting programs
and projects that provide decent housing, promote a suitable living environment, and expand
economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income residents. This Action Plan outlines
activities for the 20262027 program year, including one-year goals and expected
accomplishments, with proposed funding allocations provided in Appendix A and additional
performance details included in the Annual Goals and Objectives section (AP-20).
2026-2027 Action Plan City of Tustin 1
Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Action Plan Needs
Assessment
The priorities and objectives outlined in this Action Plan are based on the findings of the Needs
2029 ConPlan. These
analyses evaluated housing conditions, demographic trends, economic factors, and community
development needs to identify gaps in services and resources affecting low- and moderate-
income residents.
Based on this assessment, the City identified several priority needs related to affordable housing,
community services, public facilities and infrastructure improvements, economic development,
fair housing, neighborhood revitalization, and efforts to address homelessness. The City also
identified the need for effective program administration to ensure compliance with federal
requirements and the efficient use of available resources.
The objectives and outcomes associated with activities funded through the CDBG program align
with HUDs outcome categories of decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanded
economic opportunities. During the 202627 program year, the City will fund activities that support
these objectives and address priority needs identified through the ConPlan process, with
anticipated outcomes including improved access to housing and supportive services for low- and
moderate-income residents, enhancements to public facilities and infrastructure, and programs
that promote fair housing and neighborhood stability.
Evaluation of past performance
The City of Tustin is responsible for ensuring that all activities funded through its ConPlan meet
one of the three national objectives established by HUD, with the exception of administrative
-year priorities and strategies. Program effectiveness is
measured through multiple tools, including a Five-
Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS), and the Consolidated Annual
Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). These tools allow the City, HUD, community
partners, and residents to track progress on both long- and short-term objectives.
Annual Action Plan Tables identify specific short-term objectives, planned activities, units of
accomplishment, and expected outcomes for each program year. The City reports
accomplishments in IDIS throughout the year, and at year-end, uses this data to update the Five-
Year Matrix and Annual Action Plan Tables. The CAPER is published annually to summarize
accomplishments, compare planned versus actual outcomes, and demonstrate how program
activities contribute to long- and short-term ConPlan goals. Additional information regarding
website.
Through this evaluation framework, the City ensures that HUD-funded programs are effectively
addressing the housing, community development, and economic needs of its residents,
particularly low- and moderate-income households and those with special needs.
2026-2027 Action Plan City of Tustin 2
During the current 20252026 program year, the City implemented a range of housing and
community development activities designed to primarily benefit extremely low-, very low-, low-,
and moderate-income residents, as well as individuals with special needs. The City is on track to
meet or exceed the majority of its goals for the 20252026 program year. Building on this
progress, many of these programs and activities will continue to be prioritized during the 2026
2027 program year.
Summary of citizen participation process and consultation process
In preparing the 20262027 Action Plan, the City of Tustin contacted over 100 agencies,
organizations, and service providers that offer housing and supportive services to residents in the
City and throughout Orange County. Key aspects of the planning process included consultations
and collaboration with these groups to ensure the most current information on community needs
and program priorities. Appendix B of this report contains notices for the Notice of Funding
Availability, public hearings, the public review period, and a complete list of agencies contacted.

Introduction
The City aims to maximize the use of available federal, state, and local funds to create a vibrant
community, develop new affordable housing opportunities, and preserve existing housing. To
ensure the financial viability of projects, the City will explore funding from other sources, to support
affordable housing and community development goals whenever a match, grant, or loan is
needed or appropriate. The City will continue to allocate CDBG funds to projects within the CDBG
Low/Moderate Census Target Area or those that directly benefit low- and moderate-income
residents.
To address the underserved needs of the community, the City will: collaborate with federal, state,
and local agencies to provide necessary assistance to residents; work with public service
providers to ensure adequate services; and focus on physical improvements in slum and blighted
areas, particularly within the CDBG Low/Moderate Census Tract Target Area.

the financial feasibility of projects, the City will explore funding from other sources, such as the
Housing Authority's set-aside funds, to support affordable housing and community development
objectives when a match, grant, or loan is necessary or appropriate. The City will continue to
direct its CDBG funding toward projects within the CDBG Low/Moderate Census Tract Target

AP-50 Geographic Distribution 24 CFR, Section 91.220(f)
Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-income
and minority concentration) where assistance will be directed
The City of Tustin does not have a formal "Target Area" as defined by HUD; however, the City
has identified census tracts and block groups where 51% or more of the residents are low- or
moderate-income. This area is primarily located in the southwest part of the City. All CDBG
funding within the City of Tustin will be directed toward benefiting the low- and moderate-income
population. Public service activities must serve a majority of low- or moderate-income residents,
and public facilities projects must be located within the CDBG Low/Mod Census Tract Target
Area.
Geographic Distribution
distributed to low- to moderate-income
areas of the City, and benefits 51% or more LMI residents.
Target Area Percentage of Funds
CDBG Low/Mod Census Tract Target Area 100
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically
The City of Tustin's rationale for prioritizing CDBG funds to directly benefit the low- and moderate-
income population, or to be allocated within census tracts/block groups identified as low- or
moderate-income, remains consistent with the approach outlined in the ConPlan (Strategic Plan,
Section 10).
Further Discussion
Tustin has limited areas that meet the federal criteria for slum and blight or concentrations of low-
and moderate-income individuals. Nevertheless, the PY 2026-2027 funds have been allocated in
accordance with the national objectives of the CDBG program, including supporting programs
that benefit low- and moderate-income persons or help prevent slum and blight.
In line with the priorities outlined in the ConPlan, the City will focus public services and
improvements in the CDBG target area. The 2026-2027 Action Plan reflects this geographic focus
for investment, as shown on the CDBG Low- and Moderate-Income Areas and Project Locations
maps.

AP-55 Affordable Housing 24 CFR, Section 91.220(g)
Introduction
The City has established one-year Action Plan goals for affordable housing that include
homeowner rehabilitation, with a goal of assisting eight households. These efforts are part of the
ning safe, quality living
conditions for low- and moderate-income residents.
The City provides a range of affordable housing services and programs designed to support
residents across varying needs. These include homeowner rehabilitation assistance, housing
resources and referrals, and partnerships that expand access to affordable housing opportunities.
Collectively, these efforts help maintain
long-term housing stability.
In 20242025, the City launched the Homeowner Rehabilitation Program and intends to continue
the program in the 20262027 program year, consistent with Housing Element policies. In
partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Orange County, the program provides grants for eligible
home repairs to homeowners earning at or below 80% of Area Median Income (AMI), as defined
by HUD. Eligible repairs include major systems such as plumbing, heating, electrical, windows,
roofing, painting, and accessibility improvements.
The tables below summarize one-year goals for households to be supported and the types of
assistance to be provided, including rehabilitation of existing units and other housing-related

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities 24 CFR, Section
91.220(i)
Introduction
To address regional homelessness needs, the City of Tustin participates in the Orange County
Continuum of Care (CoC), a HUD-designated regional planning body led by the County of
Orange. The CoC coordinates funding, services, and system planning to help individuals and
families experiencing homelessness move toward self-sufficiency and permanent housing, with
an emphasis on reducing and ending chronic homelessness.
-In-Time (PIT) Count, branded as Everyone Counts OC, provides a
snapshot of homelessness and helps inform planning and resource allocation. The most recently
completed PIT Count was conducted in January 2024, with approximately 88 unsheltered and
335 sheltered individuals identified in Tustin on a given night. A subsequent count was conducted
in January 2026; however, results are not yet available.
The City continues to support a range of local and regional efforts to address homelessness,
including operation of a City-funded emergency shelter with a capacity of 77 beds. Additional
coordination includes participation in the Association of California Cities - Orange County
Homelessness Task Force, the United to End Homelessness coalition through Orange County
United Way, and ongoing collaboration with the Tustin Police Department, City Net, the Orange
County Health Care Agency (PERT mental health services), Orange County Rescue Mission, and
Operation Warm Wishes to connect individuals with services and resources.
For other special-needs populations, the City provides services through the Tustin Senior Center,
including transportation, case management, information and referrals, shared housing support,
health and wellness programs, and recreational activities. The City also allocates CDBG funds to
Meals on Wheels Orange County to provide meal services to homebound seniors. Additional
referrals are made to appropriate service providers for individuals with disabilities, substance use
disorders, or other supportive service needs.
For Program Year 20262027, CDBG-funded public service providers supporting homeless and
special-needs populations include Human Options, Families Forward, Family Promise of Orange
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending
homelessness including reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered
persons) and assessing their individual needs
Available statistics currently indicate that 26 percent of homeless population is
unsheltered. The City of Tustin is directly assisting the unsheltered homeless population through
the collaboration between the Tustin Police Department, CityNet, Orange County Health Care
Agency (PERT Mental Health Services), Orange County Rescue Mission, and the Tustin-
based nonprofit Operation Warm Wishes, to provide resources and services to the transient

homeless in Tustin.
Since March 2019, the City of Tustin has funded a low-barrier temporary homeless shelter with
77 emergency shelter beds for men, women, and families with children. This facility is operated
by Temporary Shelter, Inc., and includes a variety of wrap-around and other supportive services
to be administered at the site. This site
to homeless individuals with ties to the community.
The City has developed a strategy that will continue to refer homeless persons and homeless
families with children to service agencies and organizations. Through financial contributions, the
City will support agencies which provide shelter and other services to the homeless.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless
persons
The City of Tustin and the Orange County Rescue Mission entered into a ground lease agreement
to support the construction and rehabilitation of a 5.1-acre site, which became 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 partnership with Family Promise of Orange
County. This project consists of a newly constructed seven-unit facility and family resource center,
designed to provide housing and support services to families with children who are experiencing
homelessness or at risk of homelessness.
For the 2026-2027 program year, the City will allocate CDBG funds to support emergency shelter
and transitional housing initiatives. Specifically, funds will be directed to: Family Promise of

Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and
families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied
youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including
shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience
homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to
affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were
recently homeless from becoming homeless again
The Homeless Housing Partnership program provides assistance for supportive housing and
supportive services to help homeless persons and families transition from homelessness to living

as independently as possible. The Homeless Housing Partnership Program includes 192
transitional housing units at the Village of Hope campus (operated by the Orange County Rescue
Mission) to facilitate the movement of homeless individuals and families to permanent housing
within 24 months and supportive services designed to address the special needs of homeless
persons.
The City recognizes that homeless individuals often require affordable or subsidized housing to
successfully transition to independent living. The Orange County Housing Authority will continue
to assist homeless individuals on the Section 8 waiting list. In addition, the latest project initiated
and approved in support of affordable housing is the Tustin Heritage Project, an 8,700-square-
foot, three-story affordable housing development consisting of eight rental units for low-income
families, approved by th
Inclusionary Housing Fee Fund and developed in partnership with Families Forward, construction
is anticipated to begin in 2026. The project will expand access to safe, stable housing in Tustin
and is strategically located near schools, grocery stores, and retail amenities. Residents will also
benefit from on-site supportive services provided by Families Forward, including case
management, career advising, and financial literacy training, to promote long-term stability and
self-sufficiency.
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 youth facilities, and
corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance from public or
private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment,
education, or youth needs
The City of Tustin prioritizes strategies that help low-income individuals and families avoid
homelessness, particularly those who are extremely low-income, at risk of housing instability, or
transitioning from publicly funded systems of care. These efforts are coordinated with broader
strategies to address the needs of individuals experiencing homelessness, including outreach,
shelter, and pathways to permanent housing.
preventing homelessness among at-risk households; conducting outreach and assessing
individual needs; supporting emergency shelter and transitional housing; and assisting individuals
and families in transitioning to permanent housing and independent living.
To implement these strategies, the City will continue to refer individuals and families to
appropriate service providers and support organizations that deliver shelter, housing, and
supportive services through CDBG-funded programs. The City also collaborates with regional
partners, including the Orange County Continuum of Care and the Association of California Cities
2026-2027 Action Plan City of Tustin 42
Orange County Homelessness Task Force, to coordinate services and remain responsive to
evolving needs.
Through its partnership with the Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA), Tustin residents have
access to programs such as the Family Self-Sufficiency Program, which prioritizes families with
children who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. This program provides rental
assistance along with supportive services, including job training and employment resources, to
promote long-term housing stability and economic independence.
The City allocates the maximum allowable portion of its CDBG funds to public service programs.
While not all funded programs directly serve individuals experiencing homelessness, many
provide critical prevention services, including domestic violence counseling, support for at-risk
These efforts help stabilize households and reduce the risk of homelessness.
Further Discussion
During the 20262027 Program Year, the City will continue to implement the priorities and goals
outlined in the 20252029 Consolidated Plan, including support for rental assistance programs,
homelessness response efforts, and administrative coordination of affordable housing initiatives.
These efforts reflect a coordinated approach to both preventing homelessness and supporting
individuals and families in achieving long-term housing stability .

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing 24 CFR, Section 91.220(j)
Introduction
Barriers or impediments to affordable housing are commonly caused by excessive development
costs or the lack of community commitment. Typically, land and development costs are driven by
economic conditions outside the control of local government. Additionally, housing development
is influenced through local conditions such as adequate infrastructure; policies of federal and state
governments, including environmental policies; and community-driven sentiments such as the
Actions planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that
serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies
affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth
limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment
As outlined in the Consolidated Plan, the City addresses barriers to affordable housing through a
combination of programs, policies, and regulatory practices. During the 20262027 Program
Year, these efforts include housing assistance programs, development incentives, and process
improvements that support housing production, affordability, and access.
These strategies include:
Housing assistance programs, such as Section 8 Rental Assistance and the Housing
Referral Program;
Development incentives and tools, including the Density Bonus program, accessory
dwelling units (ADUs), and mixed-use zoning; and
Regulatory and process improvements, such as pre-application conferences, permit
processing and coordination, and ongoing evaluation of fees, exactions, and permit
procedures, as well as consideration of environmental constraints and the use of deed
restrictions to support long-term affordability.
Further Discussion:
Section MA-40 of the Consolidated Plan provides additional detail on barriers to affordable
housing, including zoning regulations, development fees, review processes, infrastructure
constraints, Davis-Bacon wage requirements, and floodplain insurance. While some of these
factors are externally imposed or governed by state and federal requirements, the City continues
to evaluate local policies and procedures to reduce constraints where feasible.
Efforts during the 20262027 Program Year will focus on maintaining efficient permit processing,
supporting flexible development standards such as ADUs and mixed-use zoning, and leveraging
available tools to encourage housing production and preservation. In addition, the City will
continue to coordinate with regional and state partners to navigate regulatory requirements and
identify opportunities to streamline processes and support affordable housing development.

safe and affordable housing for all segments of the population. Four of the five goals within the
population. The City has adopted corresponding policies and programs to implement the
strategies. Exhibit 6 includes the Housing Element Goals and Policies which serves as the City
of Tustin's Anti-Poverty Goals and Policies.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
Tustin will continue to participate in "network-building" activities with governmental, nonprofit, and
for-profit organizations. These activities include attending quarterly meetings of the Orange
County Cities Advisory Committee. The City will also continue funding the Fair Housing
Foundation, which provides fair housing and advocacy services regionally. Additionally, Tustin
will support collective and cooperative efforts with other Orange County jurisdictions.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and
social service agencies

The City will work to enhance collaboration between private housing providers and social service
organizations to ensure comprehensive assistance for residents in need.
Discussion:
Through these planned actions, Tustin aims to effectively address the underserved needs of its
community, ensuring access to safe, affordable housing and necessary social services for
vulnerable populations.

Further Discussion
The City of Tustin utilizes a one-year funding cycle for non-public service activities, including
public facility improvements, housing rehabilitation and preservation, and program administration,
allowing the City to respond to evolving infrastructure and housing needs on an annual basis.
Public Service programs are funded on a three-year cycle to provide greater stability and
continuity for service providers and the populations they serve.
This Action Plan represents year one (PY 20262027) of the current Public Service funding cycle
and reflects a coordinated approach to balancing long-term service delivery with flexible, project-
based investments. Together, these funding structures support
community needs while maintaining compliance with CDBG program requirements and funding
limitations.

The Entitlement Community certifies that:
Citizen Participation -- It is in full compliance and following a detailed citizen participation plan that
satisfies the requirements of 24 CFR 91.105.
Community Development Plan --Its consolidated plan identifies community development and housing
needs and specifies both short-term and long-term community development objectives that that have been
developed in accordance with the primary objective of the CDBG program (i.e., the development of viable
urban communities, by providing decent housing and expanding economic opportunities, primarily for
persons of low and moderate income) and requirements of 24 CFR Parts 91 and 570.
Following a Plan -- It is following a current consolidated plan that has been approved by HUD.
Use of Funds -- It has complied with the following criteria:
1. Maximum Feasible Priority. With respect to activities expected to be assisted with CDBG
funds, it has developed its Action Plan so as to give maximum feasible priority to activities
which benefit low- and moderate-income families or aid in the prevention or elimination of
slums or blight. The Action Plan may also include CDBG-assisted activities which the grantee
certifies are designed to meet other community development needs having particular urgency
because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the
community, and other financial resources are not available (see Optional CDBG Certification).
2. Overall Benefit. The aggregate use of CDBG funds, including Section 108 guaranteed loans,
during program year(s) 2026-2027 \[a period specified by the
grantee of one, two, or three specific consecutive program years\], shall principally benefit
persons of low and moderate income in a manner that ensures that at least 70 percent of the
amount is expended for activities that benefit such persons during the designated period.
3. Special Assessments. It will not attemptto recover any capital costs of public improvements
assisted with CDBG funds, including Section 108 loan guaranteed funds, by assessing any
amount against properties owned and occupied by persons of low and moderate income,
including any fee charged or assessment made as a condition of obtaining access to such public
improvements.
However, if CDBG funds are used to pay the proportion of a fee or assessment that relates to the
capital costs of public improvements (assisted in part with CDBG funds) financed from other
revenue sources, an assessment or charge may be made against the property with respect to the
public improvements financed by a source other than CDBG funds.
In addition, in the case of properties owned and occupied by moderate-income (not low-income)
families, an assessment or charge may be made against the property for public improvements
financed by a source other than CDBG funds if the jurisdiction certifies that it lacks CDBG funds
to cover the assessment.
Excessive Force -- It has adopted and is enforcing:
1. A policy prohibiting the use of excessive force by law enforcement agencies within its
jurisdiction against any individuals engaged in non-violent civil rights demonstrations; and
2. A policy of enforcing applicable State and local laws against physically barring entrance to or
exit from a facility or location which is the subject of such non-violent civil rights demonstrations
within its jurisdiction.
Compliance with Anti-discrimination laws -- The grant will be conducted and administered in conformity
with title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 U.S.C. 2000d) and the Fair Housing Act (42 U.S.C. 3601-
3619) and implementing regulations.
Lead-Based Paint -- Its activities concerning lead-based paint will comply with the requirements of 24 CFR
Part 35, Subparts A, B, J, K and R.
