Brown Act to include a new authorization that allows all local agencies to host remote meetings and remote public comments. The authorization, which largely extends the provisions of the Governor’s Executive Order N-29-20 (approved March 17, 2020) and Executive Order N-35-20 (approved March 21, 2020), is in effect until January 1, 2024. To comply with the new provisions identified in AB 361, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-62 finding a proclaimed state of emergency continues to impact the ability to meet safely in person, and allows meetings of the City Council and all City boards, commissions and committees to be conducted remotely as needed due to health and safety concerns for the public. Financial Impact: Not applicable. Recommended Action: Reaffirm Resolution No. 2021-62, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach, California, finding that the proclaimed state of emergency continues to impact the ability to meet safely in person.” Alternative Action(s): Do not reaffirm Resolution No. 2021-62 and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: A provision of Assembly Bill 361 requires local agencies to verify every 30 days that the exemption from traditional teleconference requirements is still necessary. Specifically, the legislative body must City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/13/2022Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™69 File #:22-003 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 make findings no later than 30 days after the first teleconference and every 30 days thereafter that: ·The legislative body has reconsidered the state of emergency circumstances; and ·Either i) the state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person, or ii) state or local officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing. If necessary, the City will continue to make appropriate findings at least every 30 days to ensure compliance with this verification requirement of Assembly Bill 361 until its sunset date of January 1, 2024.

Financial Impact: The provisions of Huntington Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) Chapter 10.42 state that residents whom choose to participate in a residential permit parking district must pay a proportionate share of the cost to establish or amend the district to make the district cost neutral to the City. Typical costs include, but are not limited to, installation of signs and curb markings, initially funded in the General Fund Signs and Marking business unit 10085302, and staff time to issue permits , funded in the General Fund Transportation Management business unit 10085301. Recommended Action: Adopt Resolution No. 2022-10, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Establishing Permit Parking District “AA” Within the City of Huntington Beach.” Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommended action and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Residents on Lakeview Drive petitioned the City requesting establishment of a permit parking district due to commuter vehicle parking impacts and other issues related to Huntington Beach Central Park visitors. Attachment 1 shows the permit parking district request area located east of Edwards Street , south of Central Park Drive. The requesting residents expressed that the parking concerns occur daily and prevent the use of on-street parking for themselves and their guests. In addition to the City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/13/2022Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™88 File #:22-302 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 parking impacts, other specific issues include placement of trash bins on collection day and noise disturbances from early morning park visitors. The requested permit parking restrictions are all day, every day, including holidays. Following procedures in HBMC Chapter 10.42, Permit Parking Districts, the request was validated, and determined that the concerns justify further consideration. The boundaries were examined to ensure that this request will not move impacts to other neighboring areas. From the initially proposed permit parking street, the area was expanded to consider including Cliffview Lane, Upperlake Circle, and Shoreview Circle. This approach ensures that residents who could potentially be impacted by the proposed permit parking district have an opportunity to also be included and participate in the district. Ballots were mailed to the property owners and residents to vote on the parking district proposal. HBMC Chapter 10.42 requires a minimum of 75% of the property units to vote in favor of the parking district to present the request for further consideration. Residents on Lakeview Drive combined with Cliffview Lane voted 75% in favor of establishing permit parking. However, residents on Upperlake Circle and Shoreview Circle voted 13%, and 27% in favor, respectively. Due to the low interest on Upperlake Circle and Shoreview Circle, these streets were removed from consideration. The recommended permit parking district will only include Lakeview Drive and Cliffview Lane along the west/south property side of the street as shown on Attachment 2. The east/south side of Lakeview Drive and Cliffview Lane is red curbed. As required by code, staff investigated the conditions on Lakeview Drive and Cliffview Lane to examine the parking conditions and related concerns. Field observations and discussions with the residents demonstrated that the street experiences recurring parking impacts from park users, with the most significant impacts occurring on the weekends throughout the day. Although the noise and trash bin issues were not observed by staff during the field reviews, several residents mentioned these conditions to staff. HBMC Section 10.42.040 E(3) requires that the parking district will not affect other reasonable public uses of on-street parking, including parks and schools. In this case, the parking is adjacent to a portion of Central Park, but also along the frontage of single-family residential homes. Central Park in this area has two available parking lots and a moderately large parking area within Central Park Drive in proximity to the proposed parking district. Due to the existing available park parking, after consultation with Community and Library Services department personnel, staff believes that the proposed parking district would not affect park use in any significant way. Therefore, staff determined that this parking district request does meet the code section requirement regarding not affecting other reasonable uses such as parks and schools, by the public. Due to these conditions, staff believes findings can be demonstrated showing that commuter vehicle parking unreasonably and regularly interferes with the use of available street parking for residents and their guests and causes other related disturbances. Additionally it was determined that this request would not interfere with other reasonable uses of on-street parking. These findings are consistent with requirements of the HBMC as a basis for establishing permit parking. The number of addresses that would comprise Permit Parking District “AA” is twelve. Notices were sent to the affected properties and properties within 500 feet of the proposed district boundaries indicating the date and time of the City Council meeting. Public Works Commission Action:None required.

Permit Parking District Request, Lakeview Drive 93 2 | Page Residents on Lakeview Drive are requesting permit parking all day, every day, including holidays due to commuter vehicle parking impacts and related concerns from Huntington Beach Central Park visitors. The parking impacts and concerns include park users occupying parking all day, creating a situation in which the street cannot be used for parking by residents or their guests, place trash bins on the street on collection days, and noise disturbances from early morning park visitors. Figure 2 shows the requested permit parking areas on Lakeview Drive. Figure 2. Proposed Permit Parking Areas As required by regulations of Municipal Code Chapter 10.42, Permit Parking Districts, staff reviewed the request including the boundaries of the permit parking in the neighborhood. Staff made the determination to include Upperlake Circle and Shoreview Circle to vote on the proposal. These streets may be impacted should parking restrictions be implemented on Lakeview Drive and gives an opportunity for these residents to be included in the parking district should interest exist. The code allows staff to modify the boundaries of the proposed parking district and to send notices to the 94 3 | Page additional residents as if included with the initial request. The considered permit parking area as modified is in Figure 3. Figure 3. Streets Considered for Permit Parking Ballots were mailed to the property owners and residents to vote on the permit parking proposal. Per code, the property owner has the initial opportunity to vote. In absence of the property owner vote, the vote of the tenant of the property is used. A summary of the results of the returned ballots is in Table 1 and in Figure 4. 95 4 | Page Street Percent Voting “YES” for Permit Parking Lakeview Drive 88% Cliffview Lane 50 % Upperlake Circle 13 % Shoreview Circle 27 % Table 1 ‐ Voting Results for Permit Parking District Proposal Figure 4. Permit Parking Voting Results. 96 5 | Page Properties fronting Lakeview Drive voted 88% in favor of the request and on Cliffview Lane, 50% voted for permit parking. Shoreview Circle and Upperlake Circle voted 27% and 13%, respectively. Municipal Code requires a minimum of 75% of support for the permit parking district request to move forward for further consideration. The properties along Lakeview Drive individually, and combining Lakeview Drive and Cliffview Lane meet the 75% support criteria with the other streets demonstrating minimal interest in permit parking. Based on the voting results Lakeview Drive and Cliffview Drive was selected to be the permit parking district streets for consideration. Field observations of parking conditions: As part of the process for evaluating a residential permit parking district request, staff conducted field investigations of the area to examine the on‐street conditions on Lakeview Drive and Cliffview Lane. Weekday and weekend conditions were observed on the subject streets. The on‐street parking on the weekend was parking impacted on the northern/eastern portion or Lakeview Drive and the connecting southern portion of Cliffview Lane where nearly all the on‐street parking was occupied. Along the central and southern/western portion of Lakeview Drive parked vehicles were observed with a few remaining on‐street spaces available. During the weekday less on‐street parking occurred compared the weekend with approximately half of the available parking area utilized. Staff observed frequent pedestrian activity with park users crossing the street to access their parked vehicles and included visitors fishing in the lake. Analysis: Municipal Code Chapter 10.42 requires staff to determine whether commuter vehicle parking regularly interferes with the use of available on‐street parking, or the unrestricted parking produces health, safety, or welfare concerns. Staff observed parking impacts from commuter vehicles along Lakeview Drive and Cliffview Lane, in particular on the weekend. This observation is consistent with discussions with the requesting residents. Other resident concerns include the early morning and late evening noise disturbances related to the on‐street parking and park use. Although staff did not notice noise disturbances during field evaluations, the issue was mentioned by a few of the requesting residents. From these observations and discussions with the residents staff can make the finding that the commuter vehicle parking interferes with parking for the residents and guests, and produces sources of health, safety and welfare concerns. The requested parking restriction times are all day, every day, including holidays. 97 6 | Page Section 10.42.040 – E (3) requires that the Director of Public Works must also make the determination that the requested Permit Parking District would not unduly affect other reasonable uses of on‐street parking, including parks, by the public. In this case, the parking is adjacent to a portion of Central Park, but also along the frontage of single family residential homes. Central Park in this area has 2 available parking lots and a moderately large parking area within Central Park Drive within close proximity to the proposed parking district. Public Works consulted with the Director of Community and Library Services to determine whether the proposed permit parking district would unduly affect park use. The Director of Community and Library Services did not believe that the parking district would affect park use in any significant way. Therefore, it was the determination of this analysis that this request does meet the requirements for consideration of a permit parking district. Staff Recommendation: Based on staff observations and discussions with the requesting residents, staff recommends establishing a Residential Permit Parking District along Lakeview Drive and Cliffview Lane all day, every day, including holidays. Staff’s opinion is that criteria specified in Municipal Code 10.42, Permit Parking Districts, has been met for creating a new residential permit parking district for City Council consideration. The number of affected properties is twelve (12). 98 99 City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street, Huntington Beach, CA 92648 File #:22-278 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION SUBMITTED TO:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY:Sean Joyce, Interim City Manager VIA:Sean Crumby, Director of Public Works PREPARED BY:Chau Vu, Deputy Director of Public Works Subject: Adopt Resolution No. 2022-13 authorizing the application for grant funds from the State Department of Parks and Recreation through the Recreational Trails Program Statement of Issue: The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users provides funds to the State of California for grants to federal, state, local and non-profit agencies to acquire, develop, and/or maintain motorized and non-motorized trail projects. This Council action requests authorization to apply for grant funding under the Recreational Trails Program to restore and realign portions of the existing trail at Shipley Nature Center. Financial Impact: The City is requesting $502,000 from the State Department of Parks and Recreation to restore a trail located at the Shipley Nature Center. If successful in securing this grant, the City will be responsible for 12% or $68,500 in local matching funds. The estimated cost for the project is $570,400 which includes design and construction costs. Staff will return to the City Council if awarded the grant to appropriate any matching funds. Recommended Action: Adopt Resolution No. 2022-13, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Approving the Application for Grant Funds from the Recreational Trails Program” from the State Department of Parks and Recreation. Alternative Action(s): Do not adopt the Resolution and direct staff accordingly.

The City is collaborating with Friends of the Shipley Nature Center to submit a grant application to restore a trail at the nature center. The collaboration included funding for the services of a professional grant writer in which the City and the Friends of the Shipley Nature Center equally funded (~$9,000 each). The Shipley Nature Center Trail Project would be classified as a non-motorized project under the development and rehabilitation of trails, trailside and trailhead facilities category. The project involves the realignment of portions of the existing trail (approximately 850 feet) that is flooded due to high water levels in the adjacent lake. The project will remove invasive plants, clear and grub approximately 0.7 acre of terrain, compact the base material, import approximately 1,800 cubic yards of fill material to elevate the trail, add a trail surface to match existing trail, install trail edge headers, and install trail markers and other signage. Environmental Status: CEQA analysis will be performed in the future if the grant is awarded. Strategic Plan Goal: Infrastructure & Parks Attachment(s): 1.

For purposes of this article, “local agency” includes all districts. Except as otherwise provided by law, money, excluding restitution to victims, that is not the property of a local agency that remains unclaimed in its treasury or in the official custody of its officers for three years is the property of the local agency after notice if not claimed or if no verified complaint is filed and served. At any time after the expiration of the three-year period, the treasurer of the local agency may cause a notice to be published once a week for two successive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation published in the local agency. At the expiration of the three-year period, money representing restitution collected on behalf of victims shall be deposited into the Restitution Fund or used by the local agency for purposes of victim services. If a local agency elects to use the money for purposes of victim services, the local agency shall first document that it has made a reasonable effort to locate and notify the victim to whom the restitution is owed. The local agency may utilize fees collected pursuant to subdivision (l) of Section 1203.1 or subdivision (f) of Section 2085.5 of the Penal Code to offset the reasonable cost of locating and notifying the victim to whom restitution is owed. With respect to moneys deposited with the county treasurer pursuant to Section 7663 of the Probate Code, this three-year period to claim money held by a local agency is extended for an infant or person of unsound mind until one year from the date his or her disability ceases. For purposes of this section, “infant” and “person of unsound mind” have the same meaning as given to those terms as used in Section 1441 of the Code of Civil Procedure. 50051. The notice shall state the amount of money, the fund in which it is held, and that it is proposed that the money will become the property of the local agency on a designated date not less than forty-five days nor more than sixty days after the first publication of the notice. 50052. Upon or prior to publication, a party of interest may file a claim with the treasurer which must include the claimant’s name, address, amount of claim, the grounds on which the claim is founded, and any other information that may be required by the treasurer. The claim shall be filed before the date the unclaimed money becomes the property of the local agency as provided under Section 50051 and the treasurer shall accept or reject that claim. If the claim is rejected by the treasurer, the party who submitted the claim may file a verified complaint seeking to recover all, or a designated part, of the money in a court of competent jurisdiction within the county in which the notice is published, and serves a copy of the complaint and the summons issued thereon upon the treasurer. The copy of the complaint and summons shall be served within 30 days of receiving notice that the claim was rejected. The treasurer shall withhold the release of the portion of unclaimed money for which a court action has been filed as provided in this section until a 108 ATTACHMENT 1 decision is rendered by the court. 50052.5. (a) Notwithstanding Section 50052, the treasurer may release to the depositor of the unclaimed money, their heir, beneficiary, or duly appointed representative, unclaimed money if claimed prior to the date the money becomes the property of the local agency upon submitting proof satisfactory to the treasurer, unless the unclaimed money is deposited pursuant to Section 7663 of the Probate Code. (b) Notwithstanding Section 50052, the treasurer may release unclaimed money deposited with the county treasurer pursuant to Section 7663 of the Probate Code, to any adult blood relative of either the decedent or the decedent’s predeceased spouse. (c) Notwithstanding Section 50052, the treasurer may release unclaimed money deposited with the county treasurer pursuant to Section 7663 of the Probate Code to the parent who has legal and physical custody of a minor who is a blood relative of either the decedent or the decedent’s predeceased spouse without the need to appoint a legal guardian for the minor as follows: (1) If the value of the unclaimed money deposited with the county treasurer is five thousand dollars ($5,000) or less, the treasurer may release the money according to Section 3401 of the Probate Code. (2) If the value of the unclaimed money deposited with the county treasurer is sixty thousand dollars ($60,000) or less, and the money is not released under paragraph (1), the unclaimed money may be released by the treasurer to the parent who shall, after payment of any costs incurred in making the claim, hold the money in trust, to be used only for the care, maintenance, and education of the minor, and the parent shall be liable therefor to the minor under the fiduciary laws of this state. The money held in trust shall be released to the minor when the minor reaches the age of majority. (d) The claim shall be presented to the county treasurer in affidavit form and signed under penalty of perjury. Notwithstanding Section 13101 of the Probate Code, the claimant, to be entitled to the entire escheated estate, needs only to establish with documentary proof the existence of a blood relationship to either the decedent or of the predeceased spouse, if any, and the documentary proof, if regular on its face, need not be certified. Notwithstanding Section 13101 of the Probate Code, the claimant shall not be required to declare that no other person has an equal or superior claim to the escheated estate. The county treasurer may rely in good faith on the sworn statements made in the claim and shall have no duty to inquire into the truth or credibility of evidence submitted. In paying out the escheated estate, the county treasurer shall be held harmless to all. Payment shall act as total acquittance and shall completely discharge the county treasurer from any liability. If the county treasurer rejects any claim made hereunder, the claimant may take his or her grievance to the Superior Court of the county holding the escheated estate. Any claim paid hereunder shall be paid without interest. 109 ATTACHMENT 1 50053. When any such money becomes the property of a local agency and is in a special fund, the legislative body may transfer it to the general fund. 50054. Whenever any city or county or city and county renders construction services or constructs public works for any city, county, city and county or any other governmental agency below the level of the state government, the price charged for such services or construction shall be sufficient to reimburse the governmental body performing such services for the full cost thereof including labor, material, equipment costs or rentals and a reasonable allowance for overhead. In computing overhead, without limitation on other factors properly includable, there shall be allocated to the overhead cost its proportionate share of indirect labor and administrative costs. 50055. Any other provision of this article notwithstanding, any individual items of less than fifteen dollars ($15), or any amount if the depositor’s name is unknown, which remain unclaimed in the treasury or in the official custody of an officer of a local agency for the period of one year or upon an order of the court may be transferred to the general fund by the legislative body without the necessity of publication of a notice in a newspaper. 50056. The responsibilities of the treasurer as provided under this article may be delegated by the treasurer to the agency, district, or department that maintains the supporting records of the unclaimed money based on the initial receipt or deposit of that money or both. 50057. For individual items in the amount of five thousand dollars ($5,000) or less, the legislative body of any county may, by resolution, authorize the county treasurer to perform on its behalf any act required or authorized to be performed by it under Sections 50050, 50053, and 50055. The resolution shall require that the county auditor be informed of each act performed under the authorization. 110 1 EEsscchheeaatt ooff MMoonneeyy GGoovv''tt SSeeccttiioonn 5500005500--5500005577 Updated May 2018 I.

DATE:4/19/2022 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION SUBMITTED TO:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY:Sean Joyce, Interim City Manager VIA:Sean Crumby, Director of Public Works PREPARED BY:Chris Davis, Senior Administrative Analyst Subject: Authorize the City Manager to purchase a vactor truck for the Wastewater Division of Public Works for $629,047.84 Statement of Issue: Resolution 2018-34 requires the City Manager to obtain City Council approval for any equipment purchases over the amount of $500,000. City Council approval is sought to approve the purchase of a vactor truck for the Wastewater Division of Public Works in the amount of $629,047.84 . Financial Impact: Funds in the amount of $587,469 were included in the FY 21/22 approved budget in Sewer Service account 51185201.85100. The remaining $41,578.84 will be transferred from available Sewer Service operating funds. Recommended Action: Authorize the City Manager to purchase a vactor truck in the amount of $629,047.84. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommended action and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Vactor trucks are an essential piece of equipment for maintaining the City’s sanitary sewer system and storm drains. They are the only equipment that can remove debris and liquids from sewer mains, sewer lift stations and clarifiers. The Wastewater Division of the Public Works Department currently operates two vactor trucks and requests adding a third to its fleet. The City has received a quote for this truck from Haaker, the prominent manufacturer of vactor trucks in Southern California. This particular truck is a larger than the other two because it offers the required capacity to clean City Sewer Lift Station “D” and certain clarifiers that are deeper than City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/13/2022Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™130 File #:22-286 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 smaller vactor trucks can reach. This truck also has a larger retention tank and can therefore hold more waste and debris. This vehicle is powered by Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), which is the only option that meets the City’s goal of transitioning the fleet to alternative fuels, meets South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) mandates, and is readily available. Funding for the vactor truck is included in the Fiscal Year 2021/22 approved budget. City Council authorization is required for all equipment purchases over $500,000.

Recommended Action: A) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a $500,000 “Professional Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and Advantec Consulting Engineers, Inc. for On-Call Transportation Engineering Services;” and, B) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a $500,000 “Professional Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and AGA Engineers, Inc. for On-Call Transportation Engineering Services;” and, City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/13/2022Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™160 File #:22-301 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 C) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a $500,000 “Professional Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and FPL and Associates, Inc. for On-Call Transportation Engineering Services;” and, D) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a $500,000 “Professional Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and KOA Corporation for On-Call Transportation Engineering Services;” and, E) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a $500,000 “Professional Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and Linscott, Law & Greenspan dba LG2WB for On- Call Transportation Engineering Services;” and, F) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a $500,000 “Professional Services Contract Between the City of Huntington Beach and Michael Baker International, Inc. for On-Call Transportation Engineering Services.” Alternative Action(s): Do not authorize the contracts and direct staff accordingly. Budgeted capital improvement projects could be delayed until new contracts are approved. Analysis: On September 1, 2021, the City advertised a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for On-Call Transportation Engineering Services. Proposals were requested and submitted in compliance with Chapter 3.03 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code. Thirteen proposals were received for transportation engineering services. In accordance with qualifications-based selection procurement, per the federal “Brooks Act”, State Senate Bill 419 and the City of Huntington Beach Municipal Code, Section 3.03, “Professional Services”, the Public Works Department established a review board. Proposals were then evaluated and ranked by a review board, which identified the top six firms. The scope of service these contracts provide include design services for capital improvement projects and for other professional traffic engineering services. Examples of Capital Improvement Projects include traffic signal improvements, street lighting, and mobility projects, but can also include traffic studies and speed zone surveys. Consultant services have historically been used to supplement City staff to meet annual Capital Improvement Program (CIP) goals, and provide expertise on unique projects. The proposed contract amounts are a not-to-exceed amount for a three-year term with no guarantee of work or expenditure of the entire amount. Funding for any and all of these contract services is only through City Council authorization in the budget approval process. Public Works Commission Action: Not applicable.

Hopkins, Assistant City Manager PREPARED BY:Catherine Jun, Assistant to the City Manager Subject: Adopt Ordinance No. 4251 adding Chapter 10.53 to Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic) of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code, prohibiting the unlawful possession of catalytic converters in the City - Approved for introduction April 5, 2022, Vote: 7-0 Statement of Issue: City Council approved Ordinance No. 4251 for introduction on April 5, 2022 by a vote of 7-0 and is requested to consider its adoption for implementation. Financial Impact: Not applicable. Recommended Action: Adopt Ordinance No. 4251, “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Adding a New Chapter 10.53 to Title 10 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code , Prohibiting the Unlawful Possession of Catalytic Converters in the City, and Making a Finding of Exemption Under CEQA.” Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommended action, and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: The State of California leads the nation in catalytic converter thefts, which have increased in recent years. According to a report by State Farm Insurance, more than 3 out of 10 claims for catalytic converter thefts are filed in California, and thefts have risen nationally by 293% in Fiscal Year 2020- 21. Catalytic converters are located underneath a vehicle and reduce the amount of pollutants released from the exhaust system. However, the precious metals inside this auto part (i.e. platinum, palladium or rhodium) make them a valuable commodity on the black market. Individuals are further incentivized to steal catalytic converters due to the ease and speed with which they can be removed with common tools like a reciprocating saw and the ability to recycle them at scrap metal yards for City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/14/2022Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™321 File #:22-311 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 with common tools like a reciprocating saw and the ability to recycle them at scrap metal yards for high dollar returns. Lastly, the lack of identifying information on catalytic converters make it nearly impossible to locate victims and prosecute criminals. As such, a majority of thefts remain unresolved. These thefts create financial and logistical burdens for community members. The average cost of replacing a stolen catalytic converter and repairing residual damage to the vehicle is roughly $2,000. In an effort to prevent thefts, the Huntington Beach Police Department has hosted several events to etch identification numbers onto catalytic converters to make them traceable or less attractive on the black market. HBPD has also paired this program with regular outreach and education about parking vehicles in well-lit areas and installing protective cages. HBPD has committed to continuing these efforts and widely publicizing them to the community throughout the year. However, it remains difficult to halt the transportation, sale and distribution of catalytic converters within the City’s existing laws. Police officers who spot an individual in possession of an unattached catalytic converter are unable to ask for proof of ownership or the legitimate means of obtaining the converter, which limits law enforcement’s ability to deter thefts. To better equip officers, Ordinance No. 4251 would establish that it is unlawful for any individual other than a Core Recycler of catalytic converters to possess an unattached catalytic converter without all of the valid proofs of ownership below: 1. The license plate number and vehicle identification number of the car from which the catalytic converter was removed. 2. The name, address, and telephone number of the owner of the vehicle from which the catalytic converter was removed. 3. The signature of the vehicle owner authorizing removal of the catalytic converter. 4. The name, address, and telephone number of the current owner of the catalytic converter. Each violation of this section may be prosecuted as a misdemeanor, subject to a fine not to exceed $1,000, imprisonment up to 6 months, or both. If Ordinance No. 4251 is adopted tonight, the Police Department will gauge its impact over a one-year period and make necessary amendments to improve its efficacy. This ordinance would ultimately provide the Police Department with legal authority to deter and potentially reduce the transfer or theft of catalytic converts within the City of Huntington Beach. Environmental Status: The proposed ordinance would not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment. As such, the proposed ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), which exempts activities where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

Kovac, Housing Manager Subject: 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan for Federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) Entitlement Grant Programs, and Amendment No. 1 (Substantial) to the 2021-2022 Annual Action Plan - adopt Resolution Nos. 2022-15 and 2022- 16 Statement of Issue: The City receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) federal entitlement grant funds annually from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). To remain eligible for these grant funds, the City is required to submit an Annual Action Plan (“Action Plan”) to HUD each year outlining how these funds will be used during the upcoming fiscal year. As part of this annual process, the Citizen Participation Advisory Board (CPAB) evaluates funding applications and makes funding recommendations to the City Council. The CPAB recommendations for Fiscal Year 2022-2023 are summarized in this report and described in detail in the 2022-2023 Action Plan (Attachment 2). The deadline for submission of the 2022-2023 Action Plan to HUD is May 15, 2022. As of this writing, HUD has not yet released its 2022-2023 CDBG and HOME allocations for local jurisdictions. To ensure the City meets its HUD-mandated deadlines, the CPAB made its funding recommendations using current fiscal year allocations. In the event funding from HUD is higher or lower than anticipated, the CPAB provided recommendations for increasing or reducing public services funding levels. In addition to the 2022-2023 Action Plan, the City Council is asked to consider Amendment No. 1 to the 2021-2022 Action Plan (“Amendment”) authorizing various funding revisions among existing programs and adjustments to performance objectives described more fully below. Financial Impact: The City’s estimated FY 2022-2023 CDBG and HOME program budget is comprised of $1,413,939 in City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/14/2022Page 1 of 7 powered by Legistar™327 File #:22-269 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 CDBG and $760,225 in HOME funds. Approval of the 2022-2023 Action Plan or the Amendment will not impact the General Fund. The proposed use of FY 2021-2022 and FY 2022-2023 CDBG and HOME funds outlined in the Action Plan and Amendment provide full funding for the projects identified with the exception of Navigation Center operations and future Oak View Neighborhood projects. Future Navigation Center operating expenses will also be funded through a combination of SB2, HOME-ARP and General Fund revenues. As homeless and behavioral health services continue to grow and expand through the region, staff is continually monitoring future grant opportunities that are expected to become available. The Oak View neighborhood revitalization project is still under development and the full project scope has not yet been determined. The proposed action plan would allocate $415,621 of funding for annual debt service on a Section 108 Loan. Based on the Section 108 Loan program parameters, the City could borrow about $6 million dollars to fund eligible activities in the Oak View area. This funding could be leveraged with the $2 million American Rescue Plan Act funding City Council approved in September 2021. Recommended Action: Staff recommends that the City Council approve and authorize the following in compliance with the Consolidated Plan Procedures of 24 CFR Part 91: A) Conduct a public hearing for the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan and Amendment No. 1 (Substantial) to the 2021-2022 Annual Action Plan; and, B) Adopt Resolution No. 2022-15, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Approving Amendment No. One (Substantial) to the 2021-2022 Annual Action Plan,” and, C) Adopt Resolution No. 2022-16, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach, California, Approving the 2022-2023 Action Plan for Federal Community Development Block Grant and HOME Investment Partnerships Programs;” and, D) Authorize the City Manager to sign all necessary related documents. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the 2022-23 Action Plan and the Amendment as presented and direct staff accordingly. The City Council may choose to modify any of the funding recommendations for CDBG and HOME projects and programs within the aggregate funding limits outlined in this report. Analysis: Background Each year, the City of Huntington Beach receives entitlement grant funds from HUD under the CDBG and HOME programs. According to program objectives set forth in HUD regulations, funds from these programs must be used to benefit lower-income Huntington Beach residents, as well as the community needs identified in the City’s approved Consolidated Plan. HUD regulations require public participation in the allocation of CDBG and HOME funds. Therefore, each year the City issues a Notice of Funding Availability to invite local community organizations to submit applications for public City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/14/2022Page 2 of 7 powered by Legistar™328 File #:22-269 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 service programs. The CPAB reviews all eligible applications, receives public input, hears oral presentations from the applicants, and makes funding recommendations to the City Council. These recommendations are outlined in the attached Action Plan, which must be approved by the City Council at a public hearing and submitted to HUD by May 15, 2022. 2022-2023 CDBG and HOME Funding Levels As of this writing, HUD has not yet announced funding levels for the 2022-2023 program year. Therefore, funding levels discussed in this report and in the Action Plan are established using current fiscal year allocations. In addition to the anticipated CDBG and HOME funding allocations, the table below reflects carryover, which are unused funds from previously approved projects and/or payments received on outstanding loans that are now available for new activities. CDBG and HOME rules limit the use of carryover funds only for eligible capital projects. Anticipated Revenue CDBG HOME Total Grant Amount $1,256,461 $618,233 $1,856,447 Carryover $ 157,478 $141,992 $ 299,470 Total $1,413,939 $760,225 $2,174,164 Anticipated Expenditures CDBG HOME Total Public Services $ 188,469 N/A $ 188,469 Capital & Housing Preservation Projects $ 974,178 $698,402 $1,672,580 Administration $ 251,292 $ 61,823 $ 313,115 Total $1,413,939 $760,225 $2,174,164 Funds Available for CDBG Public Services Programs Federal regulations allow the City to designate up to 15 percent of the CDBG allocation for public service programs. Eligible public service programs must be directed toward improving community services concerned with services such as employment, child care, health, substance abuse, education, recreation or welfare for low-income residents. The maximum funds available for public service programs is $188,469. Funds Available for CDBG Capital and Housing Preservation Projects The funds available for CDBG Capital and Housing Preservation Projects is $974,178. CDBG regulations allow a variety of capital projects and activities that benefit low-income residents, including the development of affordable housing, rehabilitation and preservation of existing housing, improvements to public facilities to comply with requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act, and special code enforcement programs. City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/14/2022Page 3 of 7 powered by Legistar™329 File #:22-269 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 Funds Available for HOME Capital Projects HOME regulations allow capital projects primarily for the creation of affordable housing and temporary rental assistance for low-income residents. The amount of funds available for HOME Capital Projects is $555,667. Funds Available for Program Administration Up to 20 percent of the City’s CDBG allocation, $251,292, and 10 percent of its HOME allocation, $61,823, may be used for planning and administration. Within the CDBG administration funding category is a HUD mandate that all jurisdictions provide fair housing services. These services are provided by the Fair Housing Foundation and include tenant/landlord mediation, unlawful detainer assistance, fair housing education and investigating claims of discrimination. Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Funding Recommendations On February 10, the CPAB conducted a noticed public meeting that provided residents the opportunity to participate in the CDBG funding recommendation process. The CPAB received public comments and heard virtual presentations from seven CDBG public services applicants. Subsequently, on February 24, the CPAB met to deliberate and make funding recommendations; by a unanimous vote recommended that the City Council fund four of the seven public services applications that were received. The City received one application from the Fair Housing Foundation for fair housing services, and this program is recommended to be funded under the CDBG program administration category. CDBG capital and housing preservation projects consist of the City’s Housing Rehabilitation Program, Special Code Enforcement Program, and Tenant Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) Program Administration in the total amount of $558,557. The remaining available balance of $415,621 is recommended to be reserved for a future Oak View neighborhood revitalization project. On March 15, the City Council and CPAB held a joint study session to review these funding recommendations, which are summarized below and described in detail in the 2022-2023 Action Plan.

Amendment No. 1 (Substantial) to the 2021-2022 Annual Action Plan The proposed substantial Amendment to the 2021-2022 Annual Action Plan includes the following revisions: ·Redirect $50,000 allocated to the Homeless Outreach Program to Navigation Center Operations along with $2,737 in prior year carryover funds. The Homeless Outreach Program received alternative funding to replace CDBG funding. ·Increase Special Code Enforcement funding by $41,332 for a revised allocation of $272,889 related to the acquisition of a vehicle that was approved in 2020-2021 but occurred in 2021- 2022 due to vehicle delivery delays. ·Redirect $556,410 allocated to a placeholder “HOME TBRA Program” to the Families Forward TBRA Program ($281,410) and Mercy House TBRA Program ($275,000). ·Adjust the performance goal for StandUp for Kids Street from 30 to 23 persons. This organization received less than their full application amount and is requesting their performance goal to be reduced accordingly. ·Revise the number of HOME-designated units at Jamboree’s Senior Housing Project from 17 to 9. These amendments are incorporated and described in the draft Amendment No. One to the 2021- 2022 Action Plan (Attachment 4). Environmental Status: Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4), government fiscal activities that do not result in a physical change in the environment, and do not commit the lead agency to any specific project, do not constitute a project. Therefore, these activities are exempt in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3).

The goals are to assist low and moderate-income persons, provide decent housing, create suitable living environments, and expand economic opportunities. Included in the Consolidated Plan are broad five-year objectives and strategies to accomplish these goals. Specific identifiable benchmarks for measuring progress in realizing the City’s strategy are proposed in the Annual Action Plans. The 2021/22 Annual Action Plan includes application for funds under two different HUD entitlement programs - Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and the Home Investment Partnership Program (HOME). Current year entitlements combined with reallocations and repayments from prior year activities (program income) bring the total estimated funding for program year 2021/22 to over $1.9 million ($1,256,461 in CDBG funds and $618,233 in HOME funds) . The following Annual Action Plan describes resources, programs, activities and actions Huntington Beach will undertake in FY 2021/22 to implement its strategic plan and ultimately achieve its Consolidated Plan goals and objectives, summarized in the table on the following page. 339 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 2 Consolidated Plan 5-Year Priority Implementing Programs 2021/22 Goal Outcome/ Objective Households with Housing Problems Special Code Enforcement ($231,557 $272,889) Owner-Occupied SF, Condo, and Mobile Home Grant Program ($80,000) Owner-Occupied Single-Family Rehabilitation Loan Program ($120,000) Housing Rehabilitation Loan Administration ($65,000) Huntington Beach Tenant Based Rental Assistance $556,410) Families Forward Tenant Based Rental Assistance ($281,410) Mercy House Tenant Based Rental Assistance ($275,000) Housing Services for TBRA ($105,000) 600 Housing Units 6 Housing Units 2 Housing Units 8 Housing Units 57 Households 25 Households 25 Households 57 50 Housing Units SL-3 DH-1 DH-1 DH-1 DH-2 DH-2 DH-2 DH-2 Homelessness Homeless Outreach Program ($50,000) Cameron Lane Navigation Center Operations Program ($52,737) StandUp for Kids OC – Street Outreach Program ($12,177) 400 Persons 10 Persons 30 23 Persons SL-1 SL-1 SL-1 Special Needs Populations Senior Services, Care Management ($34,555) 165 Persons SL-1 Priority Community Services Youth Services Children’s Bureau ($80,000) General Public Services Oakview Family Literacy ($9,000) 250 Persons 145 Persons SL-1 SL-1 Priority Community and Public Facilities No projects in FY 2021/22 Priority Infrastructure Improvements ADA Curb Cuts in Maintenance Zone 5 ($203,283) 2,118 Persons SL-3 Other Housing and Community Development Needs HOME Administration ($61,823) CDBG Administration ($221,292) Fair Housing Services ($30,000) Not Applicable Not Applicable Not Applicable Not Applicable 340 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 3 Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has established three predetermined objectives and outcomes designed to capture the range of community impacts that occur as a result of CDBG and HOME-funded programs. Each activity or program funded with CDBG or HOME must fall under one of three objectives and one of three outcomes. The framework of selecting these objectives and outcomes is known as HUD’s CPD Outcome Performance Measurement System. Here are the objectives and outcomes to choose from: Objectives • Creating Suitable Living Environments relates to activities that are designed to benefit communities, families, or individuals by addressing issues in their living environment, from physical problems with their environment to social issues. • Providing Decent Housing covers the wide range of housing activities where the purpose is to meet individual family or community housing needs. • Creating Economic Opportunities applies to activities related to economic development, commercial revitalization, or job creation. Outcomes • Availability/Accessibility applies to activities that make services, infrastructure, public services, public facilities, housing, or shelter available or accessible to low- and moderate-income people, including persons with disabilities. • Affordability applies to activities that provide affordability in a variety of ways to low- and moderate-income people and is appropriate to use whenever an activity is lowering the cost, improving the quality, or increasing the affordability of a product or service to benefit a low-income household. • Sustainability applies to activities that are aimed at improving communities or neighborhoods, helping to make them livable or viable by providing benefit to persons of low- and moderate-income or by removing or eliminating slums or blighted areas, through multiple activities or services that sustain communities or neighborhoods. Huntington Beach’s Consolidated Plan Needs Assessment was developed by reviewing Census statistical data and building upon already adopted planning documents, coupled with consultation with housing, homeless and service providers, City Departments, and the public via community meetings, public hearings, and a Community Needs Assessment Survey. The result was the formation of seven areas of priority need, including: 341 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 4 1. Households with Housing Problems - The need for affordable housing options in the City continue to be high, based on the proportion of households in the City experiencing cost burdens. 2. Homelessness - Homelessness continues to be growing and pressing issue in Huntington Beach and regionally. The City will continue to fund and support efforts that address homelessness and serve persons experiencing homelessness. 3. Special Needs Populations - There are a number of special needs populations in the City that need continued services and support. These include but are not limited to persons with severe mental illness, veterans, persons with substance abuse addictions, and seniors. 4. Priority Community Services - There are a number of vital community services in the City that need continued services and support. These community services serve low to moderate income households and include activities such as youth and senior services. 5. Priority Community and Public Facilities - The City recognizes the high need for public improvement activities throughout the City in order to provide for and maintain a safe and decent environment for its citizens. Identified priority needs include, but are not limited to, homeless shelters, parks and recreational centers, youth centers, and healthcare facilities. 6. Priority Infrastructure Improvements - The City recognizes the high need for public improvement activities throughout the City in order to provide for and maintain a safe and decent environment for its citizens. Identified priority needs include, but are not limited to, street and road improvements, sidewalk improvements, flood drainage improvements, and tree planting. 7. Other Housing and Community Development Needs - The City has identified the need to provide support for the HOME and CDBG programs in the City, as well as to affirmatively further fair housing. These activities are vital to the continuation of the City’s efforts to administer these programs. In FY 2021/22, the City of Huntington Beach is proposing to fund several programs to meet the priority needs of Huntington Beach residents as listed in Table 1, above. Evaluation of past performance The first year of the FY 2020/21 – 2024/25 Consolidated Plan is still in process and performance accomplishments will be fully captured in the year-end FY 2020/21 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). However, below is a summary of performance to date. 342 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 5 Decent Housing • In FY 2020/21, the City provided $2.8 million in HOME funding for a 43-unit affordable senior housing project at 18431 Beach Boulevard. The project is being built in partnership with the city’s local Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO), Jamboree Housing Corporation. Nine Seventeen units will be HOME-income and rent restricted. Upon completion of this project that is currently underway, the City will have accomplished nearly 50% 85% of its 20-unit development goal for the 2020/21-2024/25 Consolidated Plan timeframe. • Also in the area of providing decent housing, the City allocated $642,000 in HOME funds to assist 55 households with tenant based rental assistance in FY 2020/21. The 24- month program is currently being administered by three operators: Mercy House, Interval House, and Families Forward. The program was integral to the city’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. • The Residential Rehabilitation Program consists of a grant and loan program. First, the Owner-Occupied Single-Family, Condo, and Mobile Home Grant Program Home Improvement Program offers a one-time grant not to exceed $10,000 to low-income homeowners for deferred maintenance and health and safety-related household repairs. The City’s Owner-Occupied Single-Family Rehabilitation Loan Program, in comparison, offers low-income homeowners up to $75,000 in deferred payment loans. Both programs are intended to assist low-income homeowners to make much needed repairs to keep their property safe and livable. CDBG funds in the amount of $255,000 was awarded to homeowner residential rehabilitation in FY 2020/21. Suitable Living Environment • The City’s Special Code Enforcement program continues to accomplish their goal of assisting 600 housing units each year in CDBG-eligible areas. • The City has assisted various public service agencies. While the number of public service programs assisted with CDBG funds has been reduced due to of decreased CDBG entitlement funds, the City continues to work towards its goals in providing quality and effective services to youth, homeless, seniors, the disabled, and illiterate adults, as well as fair housing services funded through Administrative costs, to the Huntington Beach community. 343 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 6 • The City has a goal to assist 5,000 persons with improved or new public facilities during the 2020/21-2024/25 Consolidated Plan period. To date, the City has not awarded any funds to public facility projects. • The City used CDBG funding in FY 2020/21 for the ADA Curb Cuts in Maintenance Zone 3 Project with an anticipated performance goal of assisting nearly 2,000 persons. In FY 2021/22, the City will continue making sidewalk improvements in Maintenance Zone 5. • At the end of FY 2019/20 and again during FY 2020/21, the City was awarded a special allocation of $2,159,775 in CARES Act CDBG funding to help Huntington Beach prepare, prevent, and respond to the Coronavirus pandemic. Of these funds, the City awarded over $2 million, plus an additional $1.3 million in CDBG entitlement funds and program income to the operations of a new emergency homeless shelter at 17631 Cameron Lane. The shelter provides 147 beds for homeless residents who receive wrap around services including health, employment, and other services to gradually move them towards more stable housing. The shelter is operated by Mercy House. Economic Opportunity • During 2015/16, City staff worked closely with two grassroots groups established in the Oak View community, one of the most impacted areas of the City, and one in which many resources have been concentrated in recent years. These efforts included increased outreach to property owners and residents of the area and expansion of the number of materials provided in Spanish. These efforts resulted in a bilingual Code Enforcement officer being specifically hired to serve the Oak View community. Staff has continued to connect the Fair Housing Foundation to the Oak View community, and they are now non-voting partners of the Oak View Collaborative, which will give them increased access to the clientele in need being served out of the Oak View Family Resource Center. • The City continues to utilize CDBG funding for a literacy program at the Oak View Library which enhances the skills of the Huntington Beach workforce. • While not funded with federal CDBG funds, the City in 2017, prepared a comprehensive Economic Development Strategy. The purpose of the Strategy was to identify the highest priority economic development objectives in Huntington Beach, and to set goals, policies and recommended actions for short term (0-2 years), mid-term (3-5 years), and long-term economic decisions. 344 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 7 Summary of citizen participation process and consultation process The City developed its 2021/22 Annual Action Plan through extensive consultation and coordination with housing, social service providers; public agencies; and the local public housing agency as presented below. As a means of gaining input from the public, the City conducted public hearings and invited comments on the draft Action Plan. The City followed its Citizen Participation Plan and HUD’s guidelines for citizen and community involvement in preparation of the Action Plan to encourage citizen participation in the preparation of the documents. A draft of the 2021/22 Annual Action Plan will be was made available for public comment for the minimum 30-day period (March 18 – April 19, 2021). A City Council public hearing will be was held on April 19, 2021, providing residents and interested parties a final opportunity to comment on the Consolidated Plan prior to adoption and submittal to HUD. On April 19, 2022, the Huntington Beach City Council will consider adoption of Amendment No. One (Substantial) to the FY 2021/22 Annual Action Plan (“Amendment”).

Summary The Consolidated Plan identifies the top funding priorities over the next five years. These priorities were established through a need’s assessment, housing market analysis, feedback from public meetings, community surveys, and consultation with local stakeholders. Funding these priorities supports HUD’s principal goals and objectives. These goals are meant to provide availability, sustainability, and affordability for Huntington Beach citizens. Huntington Beach’s top seven priorities and implementing goals for CDBG and HOME funded projects include: 345 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 8 Households with housing problems • Sustain and Strengthen Neighborhoods • Preserve Existing and Create New Affordable Housing Homelessness • Support efforts to address homelessness Special Needs Populations • Support agencies that assist special needs populations Priority Community Services • Increase access to community services to low- and moderate-income persons Priority Community and Public Facilities • Preserve existing and create new community and public facilities Priority Infrastructure Improvements • Provide needed infrastructure improvements Other Housing and Community Development Needs • Planning or housing and community development needs 346 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 9 PR-05 Lead & Responsible Agencies 24 CFR 91.200(b) Describe agency/entity responsible for preparing the Consolidated Plan and those responsible for administration of each grant program and funding source The following are the agencies/entities responsible for preparing the Consolidated Plan and those responsible for administration of each grant program and funding source.

The City developed its five-year (2020/21 – 2024/25) Consolidated Plan through consultation with the Orange County Housing Authority; City departments; health and social service providers; and adjacent local governments. As a means of gaining input from housing, homeless and social service providers active in Huntington Beach, the City provided agencies a brief survey requesting input on services provided, priority needs and gaps in services. The City funds a Homeless Task Force made up of staff from the City’s Police Department, and it consists of a homeless outreach coordinator, case managers, and Huntington Beach Police Department Homeless Liaison Officers who coordinate services provided to the homeless. The Coordinator oversees a collaborative comprised of local homeless service providers and faith-based organizations who conduct monthly meetings with the purpose of synchronizing efforts and sharing information to most effectively address the issue of homelessness in Huntington Beach. It is the goal of the City to provide the homeless population with skilled individuals who are able to navigate the County’s Coordinated Entry System. Additionally, these individuals must have knowledge of broader housing opportunities, mental health and addiction resources, medical resources, and job resources. In 2021/22, this team will include one Homeless Outreach Coordinator and three (3) part-time Homeless Case Managers, all of whom work with the Homeless Liaison Police Officers, to further increase the level of service to the homeless population. Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness The City of Huntington Beach, through its Homeless Outreach Case Manager, participates in the Orange County Continuum of Care, led and coordinated by 2-1-1 Orange County and the OC Community Services. This public-nonprofit partnership helps ensure comprehensive and regional coordination of efforts and resources to reduce the number of homeless and persons at risk of homelessness throughout Orange County. This group serves as the regional convener of the year-round CoC planning process and as a catalyst for the involvement of the public and private agencies that make-up the regional homeless system of care. 348 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 11 The Orange County Continuum of Care system consists of six basic components: 1. Advocacy on behalf of those who are homeless or at-risk of becoming homeless. 2. A system of outreach, assessment, and prevention for determining the needs and conditions of an individual or family who is homeless. 3. Emergency shelters with appropriate supportive services to help ensure that homeless individuals and families receive adequate emergency shelter and referrals. 4. Transitional housing to help homeless individuals and families who are not prepared to make the transition to permanent housing and independent living. 5. Permanent housing, or permanent supportive housing, to help meet the long-term needs of homeless individuals and families. 6. Reducing chronic homelessness in Orange County and addressing the needs of homeless families and individuals using motels to meet their housing needs. Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards and evaluate outcomes, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the administration of HMIS The City of Huntington Beach does not receive ESG funds, so this is not applicable.

The City is unaware of any Agency types relevant to the Consolidated Plan that were not consulted. 352 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 15 Other local/regional/state/federal planning efforts considered when preparing the Plan Name of Plan Lead Organization How do the goals of your Strategic Plan overlap with the goals of each plan? Continuum of Care OC Partnership, 2-1-1 Orange County and the OC Community Services. For the past several years, leadership and coordination of Orange County’s Continuum of Care planning process has been the shared responsibility of OC Partnership, 2-1-1 Orange County and the OC Community Services. These organizations use housing and demographic data obtained through HMIS and Homeless Counts to determine needs and to pinpoint gaps in housing and services. This in turn helps to pool and coordinate resources with the County and cities to develop coordinated homeless access and assessment centers. Huntington Beach participates in building the regional continuum of care to address the homeless and persons at-risk of homelessness. Huntington Beach 2013-2021 Housing Element City of Huntington Beach Planning Division The City recently updated its Housing Element for the 2013- 2021 period. Key housing policies and programs from the Housing Element have been reflected within the Consolidated Plan. Table 3 – Other local / regional / federal planning efforts 353 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 16 AP-12 Participation - 91.105, 91.200(c) Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation The City of Huntington Beach has a Citizen Participation Plan to guide the City's citizen participation process as it relates to its federal HOME and CDBG programs. All citizens are encouraged to participate in the planning, development, and implementation of the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan. The City holds advertised public hearings each year to gather input on community needs as part of the development of the Plans and to advise on the progress of existing subrecipients. In all cases, a Notice of Public Hearing is published at least 15 days prior to the hearing to provide residents with adequate notice. Housing and Community Development Needs Survey In order to evaluate public opinion of specific housing and community development needs for the 2020/21 – 2024/25 Consolidated Plan, the City utilized a Housing and Community Development Needs Survey (in English and Spanish) in which the respondent was asked to rank the level of need for a particular service, capital improvement, and public benefit. A total of 417 responses were received and helped shape the outcome of the Plan’s Five-Year Goals and Objectives. Community Meetings For development of the Consolidated Plan, the Citizen Participation Advisory Board (CPAB) conducted a series of public hearings on community needs on October 3, 2019, November 7, 2019, December 5, 2019, and February 20, 2020 at Huntington Beach City Hall and at the Oak View Branch Library. The comments received are summarized in the Consolidated Plan Appendix.

A public hearing was held on July 6, 2020 providing residents and interested parties a final opportunity to comment on the Plans prior to adoption and submittal to HUD. FY 2021/22 Annual Action Plan Citizen Participation The City of Huntington Beach has a citizen participation plan to guide the City's CDBG citizen participation process. All of Huntington Beach’s citizens are encouraged to participate in the 354 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 17 planning, development, and implementation of the Annual Action Plan. Organizations receiving direct CDBG funding are in regular contact with City staff. Other organizations are consulted as needed or have been present at various public hearings held by the City. Three public hearings are held each year by the City to discuss issues related to the Consolidated Plan as well as the Annual Action Plan. The first two hearings focus on the needs of the community and development of the Annual Action Plan and provide citizens with an opportunity to comment on the draft Annual Action Plan.

N/A Table 4 - Citizen Participation Outreach 359 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 22 EXPECTED RESOURCES AP-15 Expected Resources – 91.220(c) (1,2) For fiscal year 2021/22, the City of Huntington Beach will receive a total of $1,256,461 in CDBG entitlement funds and will have a prior year carryover of $86,951, for a total of $1,343,412. The City does not anticipate any prior year CDBG funds carried forward or program income. The City does not have any income from float-funded activities or surplus from urban renewal settlements, sale of real property, prior period adjustments, loans outstanding or written off, CDBG acquired property available for sale, or lump sum drawdown payments. Nor is the City funding any “urgent need activities.” CDBG funds will be used for public services, public infrastructure improvements, housing services in support of eligible HOME activities, a single- family rehabilitation program, code enforcement, CDBG administration, and fair housing services. The City will also receive a HOME entitlement allocation of $618,233. The City does not anticipate any unallocated HOME carryover or program income in FY 2021/22. in The City will use HOME funds for administration of the HOME program, tenant-based rental assistance, and an affordable housing project. In January 2019, SB-2 (or Permanent Local Housing Allocation funding) was implemented, which levies an additional tax on the sale of property. These revenues are collected by the state and distributed to local jurisdictions to fund affordable housing projects. With the adoption by the Huntingt0n beach City Council and certification by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), the City is now eligible to receive revenues from this funding source. The City of Huntington Beach has received $1.4 million for the first two years and is slated to receive approximately $650,000 per year from this source which can be used to leverage CDBG and HOME funds in the areas of affordable housing and homelessness. The Huntington Beach Housing Authority also contributes approximately $220,000 annually from the Supplemental Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund for a Homeless Police Liaison Officer (SERAF) as part of the City’s Homeless Taskforce effort. The City may will also receive a special allocation of HOME-ARP funds to CDBG and/or HOME as part of the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief legislation, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, which is slated to provide funding for emergency rental relief, development of affordable rental housing for homeless or those at risk of homelessness, supportive social services, and 360 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 23 homeowner foreclosure prevention. The City is considering using HOME-ARP funding to provide supportive services at two homeless developments: the Cameron Lane Navigation Center and the HB Oasis Homekey transitional housing project. Final project allocations will be included in the HOME-ARP Allocation Plan. Details on grants specifically to Huntington Beach are still unknown at this time. The City will pursue competitive public and private grants for the development and preservation of programs, housing, and services and work to support legislation that promotes funding for future affordable housing during the Consolidated Plan period. 361 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 24 Program Source of Funds Uses of Funds Expected Amount Available Year 2 Expected Amount Available Remainder of ConPlan $ Narrative Description Annual Allocation: $ Program Income: $ Prior Year Resources: $ Total: $ CDBG Public- Federal Acquisition, Planning, Economic Development, Housing, Public Improvements, Public Services $1,256,461 $0 $0 $86,951 $1,238,214 $1,343,412 $3,702,642 Entitlement funds allocation plus estimated program income plus prior-year resources.

Table 5 - Expected Resources – Priority Table 362 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 25 Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied Federal funds play a crucial role in implementing the Consolidated Plan. Local, private and non- federal funds are usually insufficient to meet the heavy demand for housing and services in our community. Agencies receiving CDBG and HOME funds use those funds as a commitment to receiving other funding sources. Likewise, the City also leverages other resources among the formula grant programs. For example, the HOME program is matched by a variety of sources, including private and public investment including the use of low-income housing tax credits. Other future sources of matching funds include inclusionary housing in-lieu fees; residual receipts from loans of the former Redevelopment Agency; and a State SERAF loan repayment of former Redevelopment Low/Mod Housing Funds. The City has also leveraged CDBG and CDBG-CV funds with local monies to fund the operations of the Cameron Lane Navigation Center, a new emergency homeless shelter that was constructed to provide a safe place for homeless persons to live during the COVID-19 pandemic. HUD requires a 25% match on HOME funds drawn down for affordable housing. Historically, the City has met the match requirement with the use of former Huntington Beach redevelopment tax increment funds that were layered with HOME funds in developing affordable housing. While redevelopment tax increment funds are no longer available for future match requirements, the City has been utilizing a match surplus derived from prior contributions by the former Huntington Beach Redevelopment Agency in developi ng affordable housing developments. The City was required to utilize 20% of these funds to develop low- and moderate- income housing. The City's match surplus is approximately $2,741,888 as of September 30, 2019. Due to the National Emergency concerning the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, HUD has waived the City’s HOME Match requirement for all expenditures beginning October 1, 2019 and will continue to do so through September 30, 2021. The City received this waiver on April 24, 2020.

At project completion, the City will meet nearly 50% 85% of its five-year goal to provide 20 new units to the City’s affordable housing inventory. 371 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 34 PROJECTS AP-35 Projects – 91.220(d) The City plans to undertake the following CDBG and HOME funded activities during Fiscal Year 2021/22 to address its priority housing and community development needs. All proposed activities are eligible and meet program service targets. Additionally, the City of Huntington Beach has not exceeded any of its maximum allocations for CDBG public services, CDBG administration, or HOME administration. With a CDBG allocation of $1,256,461 the City of Huntington Beach allocated $185,555 $188,469 for public services, representing just under 15% of the CDBG entitlement. This Annual Action Plan proposes to allocate the following to 2021/22 public services: Homeless Outreach Program ($50,000); Cameron Lane Navigation Center Operations Program ($52,737); Senior Services Care Management ($34,555); Children’s Bureau ($80,000); StandUp for Kids Street Outreach ($12,177); and Oakview Family Literacy Program ($9,000). CDBG regulations also permit a maximum allocation of 20% of the annual entitlement, or $251,292, for CDBG administration activities. The City has allocated $221,292 for CDBG Administration and $30,000 to the Fair Housing Foundation, for a total of $251,292, the maximum allowed. Lastly, a maximum of 10% of the annual HOME entitlement, $61,823, was allocated to HOME Program Administration in FY 2021/22. Consistent with the City’s Citizen Participation Plan for 2020/21-2024/25, the Annual Action Plan may contain a list of “back-up” projects to be activated during the given program year due to one or more of the following circumstances: • Additional funding becomes available during the program year from the close out of current projects that were completed under budget. • More program income becomes available than originally estimated and budgeted in the Annual Action Plan. • If, during the development of the Annual Action Plan, the City of Huntington Beach has not definitively decided which public facility or infrastructure improvement project to fund, the City may opt to categorize each option as a “back-up” project until further project and budget planning is performed. Initiation and funding of one or more of the “back-up” projects would not constitute a substantial amendment as defined in the Citizen Participation Plan. Preferential consideration will be given to those projects that demonstrate the ability to spend CDBG funds in a timely manner, consistent with the City’s goal to meet CDBG timeliness rules, as well as those projects 372 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 35 that meet the needs of the community as defined in the Consolidated Plan.

Income levels identified are 1) extremely low-income; 2) very low- income, and; 3) low- and moderate-income households. Based on HUD recommendations, general relative priorities for funding will be as follows: HIGH PRIORITY: Activities to address this need will be funded during the five-year period. MEDIUM PRIORITY: If funds are available, activities to address this need may be funded by the City during the five-year period. The City may also use other sources of funds and take actions to locate other sources of funds. LOW PRIORITY: It is not likely the City will fund activities to address this need during the five - year period. 373 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 36 The highest priority has been assigned to the needs of the lowest income residents, based on the assumption that in this high-cost real estate market, they are at greater risk of displacement, homelessness or other serious housing situations due to limited financial resources and other limitations they may face. The Consolidated Plan identifies several obstacles in meeting underserved needs, including the high and sustained demand for public services, as well as the shortage of funding to address the community's needs. 374 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 37 AP-38 Project Summary Project Summary Information 1 Project Name Owner-Occupied SF, Condo, and Mobile Home Grant Program Target Area Citywide Goals Supported Sustain and Strengthen Neighborhoods Needs Addressed Households with Housing Problems Funding CDBG: $80,000 Description Eligibility Citation: 24 CFR 570.202 - Housing/Rehab: Single Unit Residential National Objective Citation: 24 CFR 570.208(a)(3) - Low Mod Housing Benefit The City offers a one-time grant not to exceed $10,000 to low-income homeowners for deferred maintenance and health and safety-related household repairs.

Much of the City’s residentially designated land has already been developed. Future residential development rests primarily upon the recycling of existing parcels and infill development. Surrounding Huntington Beach are the cities of Seal Beach to the northwest, Westminster to the northeast, Fountain Valley and Costa Mesa to the east, Newport Beach to the southeast, and the Pacific Ocean to the southwest. The City utilizes CDBG and HOME funds for projects and programs operated citywide. However, the majority of CDBG-funded infrastructure and facility projects are targeted to the most-needy neighborhoods: those census tracts where 51% or more of the residents are low- or moderate-income. Specifically, for Code Enforcement, after establishing the general definition for purposes of code enforcement, the City conducted a visual (windshield) survey of CDBG eligible areas for properties, businesses, parkways, alleys, and structures that met the definition. Based on the visual (windshield) survey, the City determined that low- and moderate-income areas within the area bound by Bolsa Chica Street to the west, Bolsa Avenue to the north, Brookhurst Street to the east, and Atlanta Avenue to the south contained the most properties with deterioration. In some cases, some structures had multiple violations per parcel. This target area is known as the “Special Code Enforcement Target Area.” Inclusive of the following census tracts, the Special Code Enforcement Target Area is comprised of 46,650 persons, 32,395, or 69.44%, of which are of low-moderate income. 394 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 57 SPECIAL CODE ENFORCEMENT TARGET AREA TOTAL POPULATION V.

However, Huntington Beach is one of a number of cities that benefits from the services of the Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA), which is currently manages Housing Choice Vouchers for residential units within Huntington Beach. The OCHA waiting list is currently closed. Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing Not applicable. Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership Not applicable. If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be provided or other assistance Not applicable. 398 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 61 AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i) Throughout the country and the Los Angeles and Orange County region, homelessness has become an increasing challenge. Factors contributing to the rise in homelessness include a lack of housing affordable to low- and moderate-income persons, increases in people living below poverty levels, reductions in subsidies to the poor, drug/alcohol abuse, and de- institutionalization of the mentally ill. In March 2015, the City Council authorized formation of a Homeless Task Force Subcommittee to coordinate homeless and housing efforts and provide City support and guidance regarding services. The Task Force is keeping the City Council apprised of issues and services and makes recommendations as needed. In addition, the Office of Business Development and the Huntington Beach Police Department utilize CDBG public service funds for several part-time Homeless Case Mangers to serve as the City's point persons for homeless issues. Funding will continue in 2021/22. At the county level, Orange County undertakes an effort to enumerate all of the sheltered and unsheltered homeless people within the county in a given twenty‐four-hour period. This effort, known as the Homeless Point‐in‐Time (PIT) Count, is congressionally mandated for all communities that receive U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funding for homeless programs and takes place once every two years. The most recent PIT in Orange County was held on a single night in January 2019 with the assistance of many homeless service providers. The January 2021 PIT was postponed due to safety concerns during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Orange County January 2019 PIT count enumerated 6,860 homeless individuals in Orange County, reflecting an over 40% increase from the 2017 tally of 4,792 homeless people. However, Orange County officials said it would be misleading to make a direct comparison to prior years due to the change in methodology and more thorough accounting of homeless. Among the 6,860 homeless counted, 2,899 (42%) were in some kind of emergency or transitional shelter. This reflects an increase of 691 sheltered homeless from 2017, or 31%. In Huntington Beach specifically, there were 349 total persons counted, with 289 unsheltered, and 60 that were sheltered. 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 399 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 62 individual needs Beginning in 2015, the City assigned a full-time officer dedicated to homeless issues and has continued to allocate resources as the number of homeless continues to grow. The City's efforts have grown to include a Homeless Task Force (with two full-time officers, 1 program coordinator and up to 4 case managers) and the construction of the Cameron Lane Navigation Center to provide shelter for 174 eligible homeless individuals with ties to Huntington Beach. This multi-pronged approach is accomplished in a variety of ways such as weekly outreach to engage homeless individuals and determine their needs, reuniting individuals with family members, working within the County's Coordinated Entry System to match individuals and families with housing opportunities, assisting in eviction prevention, maintaining walk -in office hours at the South Police Substation, as well as working cooperatively with local schools to assist children who are homeless or housing insecure. Since 2015, officers and case managers have helped hundreds of individuals transition off the streets (with many being reunified with family). Also, in FY 2021/22, the City will provide funding to the StandUp for Kids Street Outreach Program where volunteer staff scout streets of Huntington Beach searching for youth who are currently unsheltered or unstably housed. StandUp for Kids serves teens and youth (ages 12 - 24) who are homeless, at-risk, aging-out of foster care, or runaways to equip them with the tools they need to transition from life on the street to a life of stability and opportunity. The Street Outreach program provides basic services (food, clothing, hygiene items, and survival kits) as well as medical assistance and compassionate mentoring. Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons In FY 2019/20, the City Council approved purchase of property located at 17631 Cameron Lane using non-federal funds. Via two substantial amendments to the FY 2019/20 Annual Action Plan, and one substantial amendment to the FY 2020/21 Annual Action Plan, the City Council allocated a total of $3,167,604 $3,367,604 in federal CDBG and CARES Act funds to help offset costs associated operating the homeless facility. The Substantial Amendment to this FY 2021/22 Annual Action Plan will allocate an additional $52,737 in CDBG for operation assistance. The need for such a facility has increased in recent months due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Navigation Center is operated by Mercy House, a non-profit organization that provides wrap around services on-site to help persons experiencing homelessness “navigate” eligible social services, medical services and benefits to stabilize them with the ultimate goal of transitioning them to more permanent housing. 400 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 63 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 In an ongoing effort to continue to address the needs of the homeless and those at risk of homelessness, the City will focus on the development of sustainable and effective programming, including: applying for short and long-term available funding; partnerships with experienced service providers capable of leveraging other funding; the ability to create or secure affordable housing; perform homeless case management; and engage the homeless through a street outreach component in order to better connect them to available services. The City’s goal is to expand on current homeless programs and activities to assist with their successful transition toward self-sufficiency. In FY 2021/22, the City will continue its dedication to assisting families in Huntington Beach with much needed rental assistance to prevent homelessness. Over $550,000 in HOME funds will be allocated to the Huntington Beach Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program to help house 57 50 extremely low and very-low income homeless, senior, Veteran, and family households. 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. To help prevent homelessness and protect at-risk populations, Huntington Beach will continue to participate in the Orange County Continuum of Care System to provide assistance to persons at risk of becoming homeless. In addition, the City continues to pursue opportunities to expand its affordable housing inventory to benefit primarily low -income renters. The City does not receive Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG) or Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) funding and therefore is not required to develop a discharge coordination policy. However, the City will continue to address a discharge coordination policy 401 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 64 with the Orange County Housing Authority and the Continuum of Care Homeless Issues Task Force. 402 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 65 AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j) Huntington Beach has a strong history of supporting affordable housing. The City has adopted numerous provisions in its Zoning Ordinance that facilitate a range of residential development types and encourage affordable housing. In addition, the City and its former Redevelopment Agency have provided direct financial assistance to support affordable and mixed income housing projects. The loss of Redevelopment Housing Funds, which previously generated approximately $3 million per year for housing activities, will dampen the level of future affordable housing production in the City. In addition to funding constraints, the primary barrier to the provision of affordable housing in Huntington Beach is the lack of vacant land suitable for residential development. Separate owners of smaller parcels hold much of the underdeveloped and residentially zoned land in the City. This calls for alternative policy tools such as lot consolidation and/or demolition of existing older structures to accommodate higher density infill development. Through adoption of the Amended Downtown and Beach and Edinger Corridors Specific Plans, and the City’s Amended Housing Element, the City has provided opportunities for high density mixed use and residential infill. Actions it 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 Through the administration of the CDBG and HOME programs, every effort is made to remove barriers to affordable housing through agreements with for-profit and non-profit affordable housing developers. These efforts also include working with neighborhood residents to ensure affordable housing projects are acceptable. Ongoing monitoring of “for sale” affordable units is conducted by department staff by assuring that the affordable housing covenants are recorded on title when the unit is sold. To address the decline in sources of housing funds, the City will continue to advocate for and pursue federal, state, local and private funding sources for affordable housing. Additionally, as part of the City’s February 2020 Amended Housing Element update, the City must assess and to the extent feasible, mitigate, its governmental constraints to housing for lower and moderate-income households and persons with disabilities. The Housing Element addresses the City’s provisions for affordable housing, emergency shelters, transitional housing, and supportive housing. The following programs in the City's February 2020 403 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 66 Amended Housing Element specifically address the variety of regulatory and financial tools used by the City to remove barriers and facilitate the provision of affordable housing: Program 2. Multi-family Acquisition/Rehabilitation through Non-Profit Developers Objective: While the acquisition/rehabilitation program will continue to be a part of the City’s affordable housing program, the City intends to direct the majority of its housing funds towards new construction of affordable housing (refer to Program #11). The City’s goal will be to assist in the acquisition/rehabilitation of 20 -40 units over the planning period. Program 7. Residential and Mixed-Use Sites Inventory Objective: Maintain a current inventory of vacant and underutilized residential and mixed-use sites and provide to interested developers in conjunction with information on available development incentives. To the extent that there are high density residential sites identified as accommodating the City's RHNA that ultimately develop with a use other than high density residential development, the City will ensure that it maintains adequate inventory to accommodate the RHNA, including by rezoning as necessary. Program 8. Beach and Edinger Corridors Specific Plan Objective: The City will undertake the following actions to implement the adequate sites program concurrently with the adoption of the Housing Element Amendment: 1) Draft text amendments to the BECSP to: a) establish a new Affordable Housing Overlay and revise parking standards and Site Plan review process and b) allow capacity for development of the entire 413-unit lower income RHNA shortfall within the Overlay; 2) Conduct any necessary environmental review on the BECSP amendments including the sites selected for the Affordable Housing Overlay; 3) Conduct public hearings on the BECSP amendment and adopt the amended BECSP with the selected sites within the Affordable Housing Overlay to offset the RHNA shortfall. 4) Begin a comprehensive review of the BECSP and revise the BECSP to provide for growth aligned with economic objectives and infrastructure capacities.5) Monitor sites within the Overlay to ensure that site capacity can accommodate the remaining lower income RHNA throughout the planning period. Program 9. Accessory Dwelling Units Objective: Facilitate the provision of accessory dwelling units for seniors, caregivers, and other lower income households through dissemination of the City’s educational brochure on accessory dwelling units and conduct focused education to the senior 404 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 67 citizen community through the Huntington Beach Council on Aging, Rodgers Seniors’ Center, and the Seniors Outreach Center. Program 10. Inclusionary Program and Housing Trust Fund Objective: Continue to utilize the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance as a tool to integrate affordable housing within market rate developments, or alternatively, to generate fees in support of affordable housing in off-site locations. Establish an in-lieu fee amount for projects with between 10–30 units. Re-evaluate the Ordinance consistent with case law and to reflect market conditions and adopt an amendment to the Ordinance in the first half of 2020. Since the City has already addressed its moderate income RHNA allocation, the City will implement a City-wide policy to require at least half of on-site inclusionary units to be provided at levels affordable to lower income households. Program 11. Affordable Housing Development Assistance Objective: Continue to provide regulatory and financial assistance for the development of affordable and mixed income housing. Provide information on incentives during individual dealings with development applicants. Program 13. Affordable Housing Density Bonus Objective: Continue to implement the Affordable Housing Density Bonus as a means of enhancing the economic feasibility of affordable housing development. Program 14. Development Fee Assistance Objective: Continue to offer fee reductions for affordable housing. As part of the update to the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance the City is currently working on, update the Code to specify the waiver of 100% of application fees for projects with a minimum 10% Extremely Low-Income units. Program 15. Residential Processing Procedures Objective: By 2021, adopt streamlined review procedures for multi-family development on a Citywide basis. 405 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 68 AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k) Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The City of Huntington Beach has identified long-range strategies, activities and funding sources to implement the goals in the areas of housing and community development services for the benefit of the residents. • The City will continue to seek other resources and funding sources to address the biggest obstacle to meeting the community's underserved needs, which is the lack of funding and/or inadequate funding. • The City will look for innovative and creative ways to make its delivery systems more comprehensive and will continue existing partnerships with both for-profit and not- for-profit organizations. • The City will use HOME and CDBG funds to concentrate on both affordable rental housing, tenant-based rental housing, and homeowner rehabilitation programs. • The City is currently addressing certain housing needs with federal funds such as availability, condition, and fair housing practices to prevent homelessness. • The City is also addressing community development needs with federal funds such as infrastructure, improving public facilities and code enforcement. • The City is working with surrounding jurisdictions on a regional approach to meeting the underserved needs. Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City’s Consolidated Plan has identified the preservation of existing, and the creation of new, affordable housing as an implementing goal during the 2020/21 – 2024/25 timeframe. The City will continue to offer funding to tenant based rental assistance programs in Huntington Beach. In FY 2020/21, nearly $650,000 in HOME funding was allocated to assist 55 households over a two-year period. In FY 2021/22, the City will contribute another $550,000 to tenant based rental assistance, bringing the total investment to this program to $1.2 million. The City also awarded $2.8 million in HOME funding to the development of a new affordable senior housing project. The City has partnered with a local community housing development organization, or CHDO, Jamboree Housing Corporation to develop 43 units of senior housing at 18431 Beach Boulevard. Of the 43 units, 17 nine (9) will be HOME-restricted. The project is 406 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 69 currently underway. Finally, the City is also proposing to use $265,000 in CDBG to fund two residential rehabilitation programs. Both programs will be available to Huntington Beach homeowners. The first program offers a grant of up to $10,000 to eligible homeowners to make health and safety or code violation repairs. The second program offers a loan of up to $75,000 for larger home improvements. Collectively, the City is proposing to assist 10 households with housing rehabilitation assistance. Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards As a means of better protecting children and families against lead poisoning, in 1999 HUD instituted revised lead-based paint regulations focused around the following five activities: • Notification • Lead Hazard Evaluation • Lead Hazard Reduction • Ongoing Maintenance • Response to Children with Environmental Intervention Blood Lead Level The City has implemented HUD Lead Based Paint Regulations (Title X), which requires federally funded rehabilitation projects to address lead hazards. Lead-based paint abatement is part of the City's Residential Rehabilitation Program and the Acquisition/Rehabilitation of Affordable Rental Housing Program. Units within rental housing projects selected for rehabilitation are tested if not statutorily exempt. Elimination or encapsulation remedies are implemented if lead is detected and is paid for by either the developer of the project, or with CDBG or HOME funds, as appropriate. To reduce lead-based paint hazards in existing housing, all housing rehabilitation projects supported with federal funds are tested for lead and asbestos. When a lead-based paint hazard is present, the City or the City’s sub-grantee contracts with a lead consultant for abatement or implementation of interim controls, based on the findings of the report. Tenants are notified of the results of the test and the clearance report. In Section 8 programs, staff annually inspects units on the existing program and new units as they become available. In all cases, defective paint surfaces must be repaired. In situations where a unit is occupied by a household with children under the age of six, corrective actions will include testing and 407 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 70 abatement if necessary, or abatement without testing. Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families The City’s major objectives in reducing poverty within Huntington Beach are to: • Reduce the number of families on welfare; • Reduce the number of families needing housing subsidies; and • Increase economic opportunities for low and moderate-income persons. The City’s anti-poverty strategy seeks to enhance the employability of residents through the promotion and support of programs which provide employment training and supportive services, while expanding employment opportunities through the implementation of three Business Improvement Districts, and its Economic Development Strategy. In terms of employment training and supportive services, the City supports literacy programs for families (Oakview Family Literacy Program) with a combination of General Funds and CDBG that help enhance the employability of low-income persons with deficient English speaking, reading, and writing skills. As funding permits, the City will continue to support the following Public Services to increase family stability for lower income households: • Counseling • Domestic Violence Prevention Services • Provision of food • Substance Abuse Services • Job Training Lastly, the City of Huntington Beach supports a variety of economic development activities that help to create and retain jobs for low- and moderate-income households. Activities supported include a commercial property locator; employment assistance including of a referral service for finding and training employees; financial assistance through the Small Business Administration; business counseling and training via a litany of not-for-profit Orange County agencies; technical assistance in permits, trademarks, environmental review, and taxes; and export and trade assistance. Micro-enterprise assistance, job training services, and technical assistance are some areas that may warrant consideration for funding during the next Consolidated Plan period. 408 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 71 The City will fully comply with Section 3 of the Housing and Community Development Act, which helps foster local economic development and individual self-sufficiency. This set of regulations require that to the greatest extent feasible, the City will provide job training, employment, and contracting opportunities for low or very low-income residents in connection with housing and public construction projects. Actions planned to develop institutional structure As the recipient of CDBG and HOME funds, the City has delegated the Office of Business Development to be the lead department responsible for the overall administration of HUD grants. In that regard, the Division will prepare the Consolidated Plan and Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice every five years, draft the Annual Action Plan and CAPER, as well as all other reports required by federal rules and regulations. The City will work with non-profit agencies, for-profit developers, advocacy groups, clubs, and organizations, neighborhood leadership groups, City departments and with the private sector to implement the City’s five-year strategy to address the priority needs outlined in the Consolidated Plan for Fiscal Years 2020/21 – 2024/25. Engaging the community and stakeholders in the delivery of services and programs for the benefit of low to moderate residents will be vital in overcoming gaps in service delivery. The City will also utilize public notices, Community Workshops and Meetings (as appropriate), the City’s website, and other forms of media to deliver information on carrying out the Consolidated Plan strategies. Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies In an ongoing effort to bridge the gap of various programs and activities, the City has developed partnerships and collaborations with local service providers and City departments that have been instrumental in meeting the needs and demands of the homeless, low-income individuals and families, and other special needs. The array of partners include, but are not limited to: the Huntington Beach Police Department, Library Services, Community Services, and Public Works Departments; Habitat for Humanity, Interval House, Mercy House, Families Forward, Collete’s Children’s Home, and AMCAL; Orange County Community Housing Corporation; Jamboree Housing; Community SeniorServ; AIDS Services Foundation; Project Self Sufficiency; Alzheimer’s Family Services; Fair Housing Foundation; the Orange County Housing Authority; and 2-1-1 Orange County and OC Community Services (Orange County 409 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 72 Continuum of Care). During FY 2021/22, the City will continue to develop these partnerships. In FY 2021/22, the City will also work with homeless service providers to make Huntington Beach’s Navigation Center a successful public facility for the homeless population. The Navigation Center has 147 174 beds, coupled with wrap around homeless services to help participants transition to more stable living. 410 Huntington Beach 2021/22Annual Action Plan 73 PROGRAM SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS AP-90 Program Specific Requirements – 91.220(l) (1,2,4) The City of Huntington Beach participates in HUD's CDBG Program that is used for creating decent affordable housing, suitable living environments, and economic opportunities.

The goals are to assist low- and moderate-income persons, provide decent housing, create suitable living environments, and expand economic opportunities. Included in the Consolidated Plan are broad five-year objectives and strategies to accomplish these goals. Specific identifiable benchmarks for measuring progress in realizing the City’s strategy are proposed in the Annual Action Plans. The 2022/23 Annual Action Plan includes application for funds under two different HUD entitlement programs - Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and the HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME). Current year entitlements combined with reallocations and repayments from prior year activities (program income) bring the total estimated funding for Program Year 2022/23 to nearly $2.2 million. The following Annual Action Plan describes resources, programs, activities and actions Huntington Beach will undertake in FY 2022/23 to implement its strategic plan and ultimately achieve its Consolidated Plan goals and objectives, summarized in the table on the following page. 452 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 2 Consolidated Plan 5-Year Priority Implementing Programs 2022/23 Goal Outcome/ Objective Households with Housing Problems ▪ Special Code Enforcement ($231,557) ▪ Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program ($222,000) ▪ Families Forward Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program ($280,667) ▪ Mercy House Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program ($275,000) ▪ Housing Services for TBRA ($105,000) 600 Housing Units 8 Housing Units 25 Households 25 Housing Units 50 Housing Units SL-3 DH-1 DH-2 DH-2 DH-2 Homelessness ▪ StandUp for Kids OC – Street Outreach Program ($16,500) ▪ Cameron Lane Navigation Center Homeless Services ($46,969) 35 Persons 200 Persons SL-1 SL-1 Special Needs Populations ▪ Senior Services, Care Management ($40,000) 165 Persons SL-1 Priority Community Services Youth Services ▪ Children’s Bureau ($85,000) 200 Persons SL-1 Priority Community and Public Facilities ▪ No projects in FY 2022/23 Priority Infrastructure Improvements ▪ No projects in FY 2022/23 Other Housing and Community Development Needs ▪ HOME Administration ($61,823) ▪ CDBG Administration ($221,292) ▪ Fair Housing Services ($30,000) Not Applicable Not Applicable Not Applicable Not Applicable 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan Priorities, Implementing Programs, and FY 2022/23 Goals Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has established three predetermined objectives and outcomes designed to capture the range of community impacts that occur as a result of CDBG and HOME-funded programs. Each activity or program funded with CDBG or HOME must fall under one of three objectives and one of three outcomes. The framework of selecting these objectives and outcomes is known as HUD’s CPD 453 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 3 Outcome Performance Measurement System. Here are the objectives and outcomes to choose from: Objectives • Creating Suitable Living Environments relates to activities that are designed to benefit communities, families, or individuals by addressing issues in their living environment, from physical problems with their environment to social issues. • Providing Decent Housing covers the wide range of housing activities where the purpose is to meet individual family or community housing needs. • Creating Economic Opportunities applies to activities related to economic development, commercial revitalization, or job creation. Outcomes • Availability/Accessibility applies to activities that make services, infrastructure, public services, public facilities, housing, or shelter available or accessible to low- and moderate-income people, including persons with disabilities. • Affordability applies to activities that provide affordability in a variety of ways to low- and moderate-income people and is appropriate to use whenever an activity is lowering the cost, improving the quality, or increasing the affordability of a product or service to benefit a low-income household. • Sustainability applies to activities that are aimed at improving communities or neighborhoods, helping to make them livable or viable by providing benefit to persons of low- and moderate-income or by removing or eliminating slums or blighted areas, through multiple activities or services that sustain communities or neighborhoods. The Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan Needs Assessment was developed by reviewing census statistical data and building upon already adopted planning documents, coupled with consultation with housing, homeless and service providers, City Departments, and the public via community meetings, public hearings, and a Community Needs Assessment Survey. The result was the formation of seven areas of priority need, including: 1. Households with Housing Problems - The need for affordable housing options in the City continue to be high, based on the proportion of households in the City experiencing cost burdens. 2. Homelessness - Homelessness continues to be a growing and pressing issue in Huntington Beach and regionally. The City will continue to fund and support efforts that address homelessness and serve persons experiencing homelessness. 454 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 4 3. Special Needs Populations - There are a number of special needs populations in the City that need continued services and support. These include, but are not limited to, persons with severe mental illness, veterans, persons with substance abuse addictions, and seniors. 4. Priority Community Services - There are a number of vital community services in the City that need continued services and support. These community services serve low - to moderate-income households and include activities, such as youth and senior services. 5. Priority Community and Public Facilities - The City recognizes the high need for public improvement activities throughout the City in order to provide for and maintain a safe and decent environment for its citizens. Identified priority needs include, but are not limited to, homeless shelters, parks and recreational centers, youth centers, and healthcare facilities. 6. Priority Infrastructure Improvements - The City recognizes the high need for public improvement activities throughout the City in order to provide for and maintain a safe and decent environment for its citizens. Identified priority needs include, but are not limited to, street and road improvements, sidewalk improvements, flood drainage improvements, and tree planting. 7. Other Housing and Community Development Needs - The City has identified the need to provide support for the HOME and CDBG programs in the City, as well as to affirmatively further fair housing. These activities are vital to the continuation of the City’s efforts to administer these programs. In FY 2022/23, the City of Huntington Beach is proposing to fund several programs to meet the priority needs of Huntington Beach residents as listed in the table above. Evaluation of past performance The second year of the FY 2020/21 – 2024/25 Consolidated Plan is still in process and performance accomplishments will be fully captured in the year-end FY 2021/22 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). However, below is a summary of performance to date. Decent Housing • In FY 2020/21, the City provided $2.8 million in HOME funding for a 43-unit affordable senior housing project at 18431 Beach Boulevard. The project is being built in partnership with the City’s local Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO), Jamboree Housing Corporation. Nine units will be HOME-income and rent 455 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 5 restricted. Upon completion of this project that is currently underway, the City will have accomplished nearly 50% of its 20-unit development goal for the 2020/21-2024/25 Consolidated Plan timeframe. • Also in the area of providing decent housing, the City allocated $642,000 in HOME funds to assist 55 households with tenant based rental assistance in FY 2020/21. The TBRA programs were implemented by three operators: Mercy House, Interval House, and Families Forward. In FY 2021/22, two additional TBRA contracts were implemented providing 50 households with rental assistance. The program, run by Families Forward and Mercy House, was integral to the City’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. • The Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program offers two forms of rehabilitation assistance to eligible lower-income Huntington Beach households. First, the Rehabilitation Grant Program offers a one-time grant not to exceed $10,000 to low- income homeowners for deferred maintenance and health and safety-related household repairs. The City’s Rehabilitation Loan Program, in comparison, offers low- income homeowners up to $75,000 in deferred payment loans. Both programs are intended to assist low-income homeowners to make much needed repairs to keep their property safe and livable. To date, the City has funded 10 home rehabilitation grants with additional households currently on the waiting list. Suitable Living Environment • The City’s Special Code Enforcement program continues to accomplish their goal of assisting 600 housing units each year in CDBG-eligible areas. • The City has assisted various public service agencies. While the number of public service programs assisted with CDBG funds has been reduced due to decreased CDBG entitlement funds, the City continues to work toward its goals in providing quality and effective services to youth, homeless, seniors, the disabled, and illiterate adults, as well as fair housing services funded through Administrative costs, to the Huntington Beach community. • The City has a goal to assist 5,000 persons with improved or new public facilities during the 2020/21-2024/25 Consolidated Plan period. To date, the City has not awarded funds to public facility projects. 456 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 6 • The City used CDBG funding in FY 2020/21 and 2021/22 for the ADA Curb Cuts Projects in Maintenance Zone 3 and Maintenance Zone 5, respectively. Together, these two projects have assisted over 4,000 persons. With a five-year goal of assisting 2,000 persons by June 30, 2025, the City has already well surpassed its goal. • At the end of FY 2019/20 and again during FY 2020/21, the City was awarded a special allocation of $2,159,775 in CARES Act CDBG funding to help Huntington Beach prepare, prevent, and respond to the Coronavirus pandemic. Of these funds, the City awarded over $2 million, plus an additional $1.45 million in CDBG entitlement funds and program income to the operations of a new emergency homeless shelter at 17631 Cameron Lane. The shelter provides 174 beds for homeless residents who receive wrap around services including health, employment, and other services to gradually move them towards more stable housing. The shelter is operated by Mercy House. Economic Opportunity • During FY 2015/16, City staff worked closely with two grassroots groups established in the Oak View community, one of the most impacted areas of the City, and one in which many resources have been concentrated in recent years. These efforts included increased outreach to property owners and residents of the area and expansion of the number of materials provided in Spanish. These efforts resulted in a bilingual Code Enforcement officer being specifically hired to serve the Oak View community. Staff has continued to connect the Fair Housing Foundation to the Oak View community, and they are now non-voting partners of the Oak View Collaborative, which will give them increased access to the clientele in need being served out of the Oak View Family Resource Center. • The City continues to utilize CDBG funding for a literacy program at the Oak View Library, which enhances the skills of the Huntington Beach workforce. • While not funded with federal CDBG funds, the City in 2017, prepared a comprehensive Economic Development Strategy. The purpose of the Strategy was to identify the highest priority economic development objectives in Huntington Beach, and to set goals, policies and recommended actions for short-term (0-2 years), mid-term (3-5 years), and long-term economic decisions. 457 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 7 Summary of citizen participation process and consultation process The City developed its 2022/23 Annual Action Plan through extensive consultation and coordination with housing, social service providers; public agencies; and the local public housing agency as presented below. As a means of gaining input from the public, the City conducted public hearings and invited comments on the draft Action Plan. The City followed its Citizen Participation Plan and HUD’s guidelines for citizen and community involvement in preparation of the Action Plan to encourage citizen participation in the preparation of the documents. A draft of the 2022/23 Annual Action Plan will be made available for public comment for the minimum 30-day period (March 18 – April 19, 2022). A City Council public hearing will be held on April 19, 2022, providing residents and interested parties a final opportunity to comment on the Consolidated Plan prior to adoption and submittal to HUD. Summary of public comments [To be completed after the public comment period and public hearing.] Summary of comments or views not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them The City of Huntington Beach responded to all relevant comments. Summary The Consolidated Plan identifies the top funding priorities over the next five years. These priorities were established through a need’s assessment, housing market analysis, feedback from public meetings, community surveys, and consultation with local stakeholders. Funding these priorities supports HUD’s principal goals and objectives. These goals are meant to provide availability, sustainability, and affordability for Huntington Beach citizens. Huntington Beach’s top seven priorities and implementing goals for CDBG and HOME funded projects include: Households with housing problems • Sustain and Strengthen Neighborhoods • Preserve Existing and Create New Affordable Housing 458 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 8 Homelessness • Support efforts to address homelessness Special Needs Populations • Support agencies that assist special needs populations Priority Community Services • Increase access to community services to low- and moderate-income persons Priority Community and Public Facilities • Preserve existing and create new community and public facilities Priority Infrastructure Improvements • Provide needed infrastructure improvements Other Housing and Community Development Needs • Planning or housing and community development needs 459 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 9 PR-05 Lead & Responsible Agencies 24 CFR 91.200(b) Describe agency/entity responsible for preparing the Consolidated Plan and those responsible for administration of each grant program and funding source The following are the agencies/entities responsible for preparing the Consolidated Plan and those responsible for administration of each grant program and funding source.

The City developed its five-year (2020/21 – 2024/25) Consolidated Plan through consultation with the Orange County Housing Authority; City departments; health and social service providers; and adjacent local governments. As a means of gaining input from housing, homeless and social service providers active in Huntington Beach, the City provided agencies a brief survey requesting input on services provided, priority needs and gaps in services. Beginning in 2015, the City assigned a full-time officer dedicated to homeless issues and has continued to allocate resources as the number of homeless continues to grow. The City's efforts have grown to include a Homeless Task Force (with four full-time officers, one program coordinator and up to four case managers) and a Navigation Center providing shelter for eligible homeless individuals with ties to Huntington Beach. This multi-pronged approach is accomplished in a variety of ways such as weekly outreach to engage homeless individuals and determine their needs, reuniting individuals with family members, working within the County's Coordinated Entry System to match individuals and families with housing opportunities, assisting in eviction prevention, maintaining walk-in office hours at the Main Police Station, as well as working cooperatively with local schools to assist children who are homeless or housing insecure. Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness The City of Huntington Beach, through its Homeless Outreach Case Manager, participates in the Orange County Continuum of Care (CoC), led and coordinated by the Orange County Health Care Agency. This public-nonprofit partnership helps ensure comprehensive and regional coordination of efforts and resources to reduce the number of homeless and persons at risk of homelessness throughout Orange County. This group serves as the regional convener of the year-round CoC planning process and as a catalyst for the involvement of the public and private agencies that make-up the regional homeless system of care. The Orange County Continuum of Care system is designed to: 461 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 11 1.

Continuum of Care OC Partnership, 2-1-1 Orange County and the OC Community Services. For the past several years, leadership and coordination of Orange County’s Continuum of Care planning process has been the shared responsibility of OC Partnership, 2-1-1 Orange County and the OC Community Services. These organizations use housing and demographic data obtained through HMIS and Homeless Counts to determine needs and to pinpoint gaps in housing and services. This in turn helps to pool and coordinate resources with the County and cities to develop coordinated homeless access and assessment centers. Huntington Beach participates in building the regional continuum of care to address the homeless and persons at-risk of homelessness. Huntington Beach 2013-2021 Housing Element City of Huntington Beach Planning Division Key housing policies and programs from the Housing Element have been reflected within the Consolidated Plan. Table 3 – Other local / regional / federal planning efforts 466 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 16 AP-12 Participation - 91.105, 91.200(c) Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation The City of Huntington Beach has a Citizen Participation Plan to guide the City's citizen participation process as it relates to its federal HOME and CDBG programs. All citizens are encouraged to participate in the planning, development, and implementation of the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan. The City holds advertised public hearings each year to gather input on community needs as part of the development of the Plans and to advise on the progress of existing subrecipients. In all cases, a Notice of Public Hearing is published at least 15 days prior to the hearing to provide residents with adequate notice. Further, all public notices, staff reports, and Annual Action Plans are accessible on the City’s website for review. Housing and Community Development Needs Survey In order to evaluate public opinion of specific housing and community development needs for the 2020/21 – 2024/25 Consolidated Plan, the City utilized a Housing and Community Development Needs Survey (in English and Spanish) in which the respondent was asked to rank the level of need for a particular service, capital improvement, and public benefit. A total of 417 responses were received and helped shape the outcome of the Plan’s Five-Year Goals and Objectives. Community Meetings For development of the Consolidated Plan, the Citizen Participation Advisory Board (CPAB) conducted a series of public hearings on community needs on October 3, 2019, November 7, 2019, December 5, 2019, and February 20, 2020 at Huntington Beach City Hall and at the Oak View Branch Library. The comments received are summarized in the Consolidated Plan Appendix.

N/A Table 4 - Citizen Participation Outreach 471 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 21 EXPECTED RESOURCES AP-15 Expected Resources – 91.220(c) (1,2) For Fiscal Year 2022/23, the City of Huntington Beach will receive an estimated $1,256,461 in CDBG entitlement funds (estimate is based on FY 2021/22 CDBG funding levels and can differ by +/-10%), will have $57,478 in prior year CDBG funds carried forward, and estimates receiving $100,000 in program income, for a total of $1,413,939. If CDBG funds from HUD are more or less than the FY 2021/22 CDBG allocation, the City will implement the following changes: • The three public service applicants consisting of Senior Center Care Management, Cameron Lane Navigation Center, and StandUp for Kids OC will have their funding adjusted proportionately (weighted average); however, funding for Oak View FRC Drop-in Recreation Program will remain the same as shown in this 2022-2023 Action Plan. • Unallocated funding for a future project as identified in this 2022-2023 Action Plan will be adjusted accordingly. No other CDBG capital project/program funding will be adjusted. • The CDBG Administration allocation will be adjusted accordingly but will not exceed the 20 percent maximum requirement. The City does not have any income from float-funded activities or surplus from urban renewal settlements, sale of real property, prior period adjustments, loans outstanding or written off, CDBG acquired property available for sale, or lump sum drawdown payments. Nor is the City funding any “urgent need activities.” CDBG funds will be used for public services, housing services in support of eligible HOME activities, a single-family rehabilitation program, code enforcement, CDBG administration, and fair housing services. The City will also receive a HOME estimated entitlement allocation of $618,233 (estimate is based on FY 2021/22 funding levels and can vary by +/-10%). The City also anticipates $91,992 in unallocated HOME carryover, and about $50,000 in program income for a total of $760,225. If HOME funds from HUD are more or less than the FY 2021/22 HOME allocation, the City will implement the following changes: • The Tenant Based Rental Assistance program funding as administered by Mercy House and Families Forward and shown in this FY 2022-23 Action Plan will be adjusted 472 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 22 proportionately (weighted average). • HOME administration and Community Housing Development Organization funding reserves will be adjusted accordingly but will not exceed the 10 percent and 15 percent maximum requirements, respectively. The City will use HOME funds for administration of the HOME program, tenant-based rental assistance, and will reserve at least 15% for a future affordable housing project. In January 2019, SB-2 (or Permanent Local Housing Allocation funding) was implemented, which levies an additional tax on the sale of property. These revenues are collected by the state and distributed to local jurisdictions to fund affordable housing projects. With the adoption by the Huntington Beach City Council and certification by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), the City is now eligible to receive revenues from this funding source. The City of Huntington Beach has received $1.4 million for the first two years and is slated to receive approximately $650,000 per year from this source which can be used to leverage CDBG and HOME funds in the areas of affordable housing and homelessness. The Huntington Beach Housing Authority also contributes approximately $220,000 annually from the Supplemental Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund for a Homeless Police Liaison Officer (SERAF) as part of the City’s Homeless Taskforce effort. The City will also receive a special allocation of HOME-ARP funds as part of the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief legislation, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, which is slated to provide funding for emergency rental relief, development of affordable rental housing for homeless or those at risk of homelessness, supportive social services, and homeowner foreclosure prevention. The City is considering using HOME-ARP funding to provide supportive services at two homeless developments: the Cameron Lane Navigation Center and the HB Oasis Homekey transitional housing project. Final project allocations will be included in the HOME- ARP Allocation Plan. The City will pursue competitive public and private grants for the development and preservation of programs, housing, and services and work to support legislation that promotes funding for future affordable housing during the Consolidated Plan period. 473 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 23 Program Source of Funds Uses of Funds Expected Amount Available Year 3 Expected Amount Available Remainder of ConPlan $ Narrative Description Annual Allocation: $ Program Income: $ Prior Year Resources: $ Total: $ CDBG Public- Federal Acquisition, Planning, Economic Development, Housing, Public Improvements, Public Services $1,256,461 $100,000 $57,478 $1,413,939 $2,512,922 Entitlement funds allocation plus estimated program income plus prior-year resources.

Table 5 - Expected Resources – Priority Table 474 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 24 Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied Federal funds play a crucial role in implementing the Consolidated Plan. Local, private and non- federal funds are usually insufficient to meet the heavy demand for housing and services in our community. Agencies receiving CDBG and HOME funds use those funds as a commitment to receive other funding sources. Likewise, the City also leverages other resources among the formula grant programs. For example, the HOME program is matched by a variety of sources, including private and public investment including the use of low-income housing tax credits. Other future sources of matching funds include inclusionary housing in-lieu fees; residual receipts from loans of the former Redevelopment Agency; and a State SERAF loan repayment of former Redevelopment Low/Mod Housing Funds. The City has also leveraged CDBG and CDBG-CV funds with local monies to fund the operations of the Cameron Lane Navigation Center, an emergency homeless shelter that was constructed to provide a safe place for homeless persons to live during the COVID-19 pandemic. HUD requires a 25% match on HOME funds drawn down for affordable housing. Historically, the City has met the match requirement with the use of former Huntington Beach redevelopment tax increment funds that were layered with HOME funds in developing affordable housing. While redevelopment tax increment funds are no longer available for future match requirements, the City has been utilizing a match surplus derived from prior contributions by the former Huntington Beach Redevelopment Agency in developing affordable housing developments. The City was required to utilize 20% of these funds to develop low- and moderate- income housing. The City's match surplus is approximately $2,741,888 as of September 30, 2020. Due to the National Emergency concerning the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, HUD has waived the City’s HOME Match requirement for all expenditures beginning October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2021. The City received this waiver on April 24, 2020. 475 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 25 If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan The City Council recently authorized acquisition of property located at 17631 Cameron Lane that was developed as an emergency homeless shelter to help meet the needs of the homeless population, a priority need as described in the 2020/21-2024/25 Consolidated Plan. 476 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 26 ANNUAL GOALS AND OBJECTIVES AP-20 Annual Goals and Objectives Sort Order Goal Name Start Year End Year Category Geographic Area Needs Addressed Funding Goal Outcome Indicator 1 Sustain and Strengthen Neighborhoods 2022 2023 Affordable Housing Citywide Households with Housing Problems $222,00 (CDBG) $231,557 (CDBG) Homeowner Units Rehabilitated – 8 Household Housing Units (Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program) Housing Code Enforcement/ Foreclosed Property Care – 600 Housing Units (Special Code Enforcement) 2 Preserve Existing and Create New Affordable Housing 2022 2023 Affordable Housing Citywide Households with Housing Problems $280,667 (HOME) $275,000 (HOME) $105,000 (CDBG) Tenant-Based Rental Assistance 25 Households (Families Forward TBRA Program) Tenant-Based Rental Assistance 25 Households (Mercy House TBRA Program) Other 50 Housing Units (Housing Services for TBRA) 477 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 27 3 Support Efforts to Address Homelessness 2022 2023 Homeless Citywide Homelessness $16,500 (CDBG) $46,969 (CDBG) Public service activities other than Low/Mod Income Housing Benefit – 23 Persons Assisted (StandUp for Kids Street Outreach Program) Public service activities other than Low/Mod Income Housing Benefit – 200 Persons Assisted (Cameron Lane Navigation Center Operations Program) 4 Support Agencies that Assist Special Needs Populations 2022 2023 Non-Homeless Special Needs Citywide Priority Special Needs Populations $40,000 (CDBG) Public service activities other than Low/Mod Income Housing Benefit – 165 Persons Assisted (Senior Services Care Management) 5 Increase Access to Community Services to LMI Persons 2022 2023 Non-Housing Community Development Citywide Priority Community Services $85,000 (CDBG) Public service activities other than Low/Mod Income Housing Benefit – 200 Persons Assisted (Children’s Bureau) 478 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 28 6 Planning for Housing and Community Development 2022 2023 Other: Administration Not Applicable Other Housing and Community Development Needs $61,823 (HOME) $251,292 (CDBG) Other – Not Applicable (HOME Administration; CDBG Administration; Fair Housing Foundation) Table 6 – Goals Summary 479 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 29 Goal Descriptions 1 Goal Name Sustain and Strengthen Neighborhoods Goal Description Using CDBG funds, the City will sustain and strengthen neighborhoods by eliminating unsafe conditions and blight while improving the quality of life of residents within the community.

(Projects: HOME Administration, CDBG Administration, Fair Housing Foundation) 480 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 30 Estimate the number of extremely low-income, low-income, and moderate-income families to whom the jurisdiction will provide affordable housing as defined by HOME 91.215(b) As described in the Needs Assessment of the City’s Consolidated Plan, over 20% of all Huntington Beach households experience a cost burden, which is defined as spending 30% or more of household income on housing related costs. Therefore, in FY 2022/23, the City is proposing to provide tenant based rental assistance (TBRA) to 50 homeless, senior, Veteran, and/or family households. The TBRA programs will also be available to households needing help with mobile home space rents. Further, in FY 2020/21, the City allocated $2,830,698 in HOME funds to the Huntington Beach Senior Housing Project located at 18431 Beach Boulevard. The project will be developed with the City’s local CHDO, Jamboree Housing Corporation, and will include a total of 43 one bedroom/one bath units, and one two-bedroom/one bath (manager’s unit). With an investment of $2.8 million in HOME, the City estimates that nine units will be HOME-restricted. At project completion, the City will meet 45% of its five-year goal to provide 20 new units to the City’s affordable housing inventory. 481 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 31 PROJECTS AP-35 Projects – 91.220(d) The City plans to undertake the following CDBG and HOME funded activities during FY 2022/23 to address its priority housing and community development needs. All proposed activities are eligible and meet program service targets. Additionally, the City of Huntington Beach has not exceeded any of its maximum allocations for CDBG public services, CDBG administration, or HOME administration. With a CDBG allocation of $1,256,461, the City of Huntington Beach allocated $188,469 for public services, representing 15% of the CDBG entitlement. This Annual Action Plan proposes to allocate the following to 2022/23 public services: Cameron Lane Navigation Center Operations Program ($46,969); Senior Services Care Management ($40,000); Children’s Bureau ($85,000); and StandUp for Kids Street Outreach ($16,500). CDBG regulations also permit a maximum allocation of 20% of the annual entitlement, or $251,292, for CDBG administration activities. The City has allocated $221,292 for CDBG Administration and $30,000 to the Fair Housing Foundation, for a total of $251,292, the maximum allowed. Lastly, a maximum of 10% of the annual HOME entitlement, $61,823, was allocated to HOME Program Administration in FY 2022/23. Consistent with the City’s Citizen Participation Plan for 2020/21-2024/25, the Annual Action Plan may contain a list of “back-up” projects to be activated during the given program year due to one or more of the following circumstances: • Additional funding becomes available during the program year from the close out of current projects that were completed under budget. • More program income becomes available than originally estimated and budgeted in the Annual Action Plan. • If, during the development of the Annual Action Plan, the City of Huntington Beach has not definitively decided which public facility or infrastructure improvement project to fund, the City may opt to categorize each option as a “back-up” project until further project and budget planning is performed. Initiation and funding of one or more of the “back-up” projects would not constitute a substantial amendment as defined in the Citizen Participation Plan. Preferential consideration will be given to those projects that demonstrate the ability to spend CDBG funds in a timely manner, consistent with the City’s goal to meet CDBG timeliness rules, as well as those projects 482 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 32 that meet the needs of the community as defined in the Consolidated Plan.

Income levels identified are 1) extremely low-income; 2) very low- income; and 3) low- and moderate-income households. Based on HUD recommendations, general relative priorities for funding will be as follows: HIGH PRIORITY: Activities to address this need will be funded during the five-year period. MEDIUM PRIORITY: If funds are available, activities to address this need may be funded by the City during the five-year period. The City may also use other sources of funds and take actions to locate other sources of funds. LOW PRIORITY: It is not likely the City will fund activities to address this need during the five - year period. The highest priority has been assigned to the needs of the lowest income residents, based on the assumption that in this high-cost real estate market, they are at greater risk of 483 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 33 displacement, homelessness or other serious housing situations due to limited financial resources and other limitations they may face. The Consolidated Plan identifies several obstacles in meeting underserved needs, including the high and sustained demand for public services, as well as the shortage of funding to address the community's needs. 484 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 34 AP-38 Project Summary Project Summary Information 1 Project Name Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Target Area Citywide Goals Supported Sustain and Strengthen Neighborhoods Needs Addressed Households with Housing Problems Funding CDBG: $220,000 Description Eligibility Citation: 24 CFR 570.202 - Housing/Rehab: Single Unit Residential National Objective Citation: 24 CFR 570.208(a)(3) - Low Mod Housing Benefit The Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program offers assistance to lower income households for much needed home repairs and improvements.

Much of the City’s residentially designated land has already been developed. Future residential development rests primarily upon the recycling of existing parcels and infill development. Surrounding Huntington Beach are the cities of Seal Beach to the northwest, Westminster to the northeast, Fountain Valley and Costa Mesa to the east, Newport Beach to the southeast, and the Pacific Ocean to the southwest. The City utilizes CDBG and HOME funds for projects and programs operated citywide. However, the majority of CDBG-funded infrastructure and facility projects are targeted to the most-needy neighborhoods: those census tracts where 51% or more of the residents are low- or moderate-income. Specifically, for Code Enforcement, after establishing the general definition for purposes of code enforcement, the City conducted a visual (windshield) survey of CDBG eligible areas for properties, businesses, parkways, alleys, and structures that met the definition. Based on the survey, the City determined that low- and moderate-income areas within the area bound by Bolsa Chica Street to the west, Bolsa Avenue to the north, Brookhurst Street to the east, and Atlanta Avenue to the south contained the most properties with deterioration.

This area is bound by Bolsa Chica Street to the west, Bolsa Avenue to the north, Brookhurst Street to the east, and Atlanta Avenue to the south. Public facility and public infrastructure projects, while are not proposed for FY 2022/23, are typically targeted to neighborhoods where 51% or more of residents are low- and moderate-income, unless they serve a specific limited clientele in which case they may be located anywhere in the city. 501 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 51 AFFORDABLE HOUSING AP-55 Affordable Housing – 91.220(g) One Year Goals for the Number of Households to be Supported Homeless 0 Non-Homeless 0 Special-Needs 0 Total 0 Table 11 - One Year Goals for Affordable Housing by Support Requirement One Year Goals for the Number of Households Supported Through Rental Assistance 0 The Production of New Units 0 Rehab of Existing Units 0 Acquisition of Existing Units 0 Total 0 Table 12 - One Year Goals for Affordable Housing by Support Type The City is not proposing to fund any new housing development projects that meet the definition of “affordable housing” at 24 CF 92.252 and 92.254 in FY 2022/23; however, in FY 2020/21, the City invested approximately $2.8 million in HOME funds to provide gap financing in the development of a senior housing project. The City, in partnership with its local CHDO, Jamboree Housing Corporation, is underway to develop a 43-unit senior housing development at 18431 Beach Boulevard, Huntington Beach. Each of the 43 units will have one bedroom and one bath. With an investment of $2.8 million, nine units will be HOME restricted (the City utilized the Suspension and Waiver of Maximum Per Unit Subsidy Limit). Also, the City estimates that it will have a balance of roughly $143,000 in unallocated HOME funds that it can dedicate to a new CHDO affordable housing project in the future. 502 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 52 AP-60 Public Housing – 91.220(h) The City of Huntington Beach does not have any public housing developments. However, it is one of a number of cities that benefits from the services of the Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA), which currently manages Housing Choice Vouchers for residential units within Huntington Beach. The OCHA waiting list is currently closed. Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing Not applicable. Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership Not applicable. If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be provided or other assistance Not applicable. 503 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 53 AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i) Throughout the country and the Los Angeles and Orange County region, homelessness has become an increasing challenge. Factors contributing to the rise in homelessness include a lack of housing affordable to low- and moderate-income persons, increases in people living below poverty levels, reductions in subsidies to the poor, drug/alcohol abuse, and de- institutionalization of the mentally ill. In March 2015, the City Council authorized formation of a Homeless Task Force Subcommittee to coordinate homeless and housing efforts and provide City support and guidance regarding services. The Task Force is keeping the City Council apprised of issues and services and makes recommendations as needed. For example, in FY 2021/22, the City identified the goal of increasing outreach and engagement with the homeless community. The Police Department, assigned to that effort, increased their proactive contacts with the homeless population, even when no crime was committed and no call for services was generated. This endeavor is meant to foster a positive dialogue with the homeless population and allow for conversations that would hopefully lead to the acceptance of resources, benefitting the homeless individual and aid in the goal of reducing the homeless population in Huntington Beach. The City will continue these efforts into FY 2022/23. In addition, the Huntington Beach Police Department will continue the Homeless Outreach Program made up of three homeless outreach case managers and four police officers that serve as the City's point persons for homeless issues. Since its inception in 2016, the Homeless Outreach Program has had more than 1,600 occasions to assist individuals with housing referrals, mental and physical health referrals, bus passes, DMV forms, gas cards, food, mailing addresses, and family reunifications. At the county level, Orange County undertakes an effort to enumerate all of the sheltered and unsheltered homeless people within the County in a given twenty‐four-hour period. This effort, known as the Homeless Point‐in‐Time (PIT) Count, is congressionally mandated for all communities that receive HUD funding for homeless programs and takes place once every two years. The most recent complete PIT in Orange County was held on a single night in January 2019 with the assistance of many homeless service providers. The January 2021 PIT Count for unsheltered homeless was postponed due to safety concerns during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Orange County January 2019 PIT Count enumerated 6,860 homeless individuals in Orange County, reflecting an over 40% increase from the 2017 tally of 4,792 homeless people. However, Orange County officials said it would be misleading to make a direct comparison to 504 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 54 prior years due to the change in methodology and more thorough accounting of homeless. Among the 6,860 homeless counted, 2,899 (42%) were in some kind of emergency or transitional shelter. This reflects an increase of 691 sheltered homeless from 2017, or 31%. In Huntington Beach specifically, there were 349 total persons counted, with 289 unsheltered, and 60 that were sheltered. Orange County and the Orange County Continuum of Care (CoC) resumed the PIT Count in 2022. The sheltered count was conducted the night of Monday, February 21, 2022, and the unsheltered count started the morning of Tuesday, February 22 through Thursday, February 24, 2022. The results of the PIT Count will be made available later in 2022. 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 Beginning in 2015, the City assigned a full-time officer dedicated to homeless issues and has continued to allocate resources as the number of homeless continues to grow. The City's efforts have grown to include a Homeless Task Force, the construction of the Cameron Lane Navigation Center, and the addition of a Deputy Director of Homelessness & Behavioral Health Services in FY 2021/22. This multi-pronged approach is accomplished in a variety of ways, such as weekly outreach to engage homeless individuals and determine their needs, reuniting individuals with family members, working within the County's Coordinated Entry System to match individuals and families with housing opportunities, assisting in eviction prevention, maintaining walk-in office hours at the South Police Substation, as well as working cooperatively with local schools to assist children who are homeless or housing insecure. Since 2015, officers and case managers have helped hundreds of individuals transition off the streets (with many being reunified with family). The Deputy Director will play an instrumental role in the City to help coordinate ongoing homeless response efforts within Huntington Beach. In FY 2022/23, the City will continue funding the StandUp for Kids Street Outreach Program. StandUp is an agency where volunteer staff scout streets of Huntington Beach for youth who are unsheltered or unstably housed. StandUp for Kids serves teens and youth (ages 12 - 24) who are homeless, at-risk, aging-out of foster care, or runaways to equip them with the tools they need to transition from life on the street to a life of stability and opportunity. The Street 505 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 55 Outreach program provides basic services (food, clothing, hygiene items, and survival kits) as well as medical assistance and compassionate mentoring. Lastly, the City established a pilot mobile crisis response program in April 2021 through an agreement with Be Well OC that’s composed of two Crisis Counselors who provide in - community assessments and stabilization services at a caller’s location. On February 15, 2022, the City Council unanimously extended the program’s initial one-year agreement term through June 30, 2023. Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons In FY 2019/20, the City Council approved purchase of property located at 17631 Cameron Lane using non-federal funds to establish the Navigation Center. Via two substantial amendments to the FY 2019/20 Annual Action Plan, and one substantial amendment to the FY 2020/21 Annual Action Plan, the City Council allocated a total of $3,437,242 in federal CDBG and CARES Act funds to help offset costs associated with operating the facility. The need for such a facility increased due to the COVID-19 pandemic and was impacted by social distancing rules which reduced the number of available beds from 174 to 128. The number of beds is expected to return to the available 174 as pandemic rules are modified in the coming months. The Navigation Center is operated by Mercy House, a non-profit organization that provides wrap around services on-site to help persons experiencing homelessness “navigate” eligible social services, medical services, and benefits to stabilize them with the goal of transitioning them to more permanent housing. On February 8, 2022, the City released the Navigation Center’s first annual report that summarized the positive impact the facility is having on the homeless population in Huntington Beach. Also, in FY 2021/22, the City partnered with the County of Orange, National CORE, and American Family Housing to negotiate the acquisition and rehabilitation of the former Quality Inn & Suites motel located at 17251 Beach Boulevard, Huntington Beach. The project, HB Oasis, will provide interim housing for up to 62 adult individuals and households experiencing homelessness in Orange County’s Central Service Planning Area. In addition to transitional housing, the HB Oasis will provide property management, residential and supportive services that meet the complex needs of people experiencing homelessness. HB Oasis will provide a trauma informed, and evidence-based interim operations by identifying tools and re- integrating participants back into the community through case management and linkages to permanent housing. The City’s contribution of $1,804,704 in HOME-ARP will provide supportive services in Year 5 of the project. 506 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 56 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 In an ongoing effort to continue to address the needs of the homeless and those at risk of homelessness, the City will focus on the development of sustainable and effective programming, including: applying for short and long-term available funding; partnerships with experienced service providers capable of leveraging other funding; the ability to create or secure affordable housing; perform homeless case management; and engage the homeless through a street outreach component in order to better connect them to available services. The City’s goal is to expand on current homeless programs and activities to assist with their successful transition toward self-sufficiency. Towards this effort, the Navigation Center maintains www.hbhomelesssolutions.com, a website that provides general information about the Center and informs the public of the Center’s work through weekly Homeless Services Updates. Funding for the Center will continue through FY 2022/23 as the City intends on repurposing the property into a permanent supportive housing (PSH) development that provides affordable housing to the chronically homeless. The housing will be paired with services to help individuals achieve social and economic stability. Updates will continue to be provided on the Center’s website. In FY 2022/23, the City will continue its dedication to assisting families in Huntington Beach with much needed rental assistance to prevent homelessness. Since 2014, Huntington Beach has offered a Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program that has helped hundreds of extremely low- and very-low income homeless, senior, Veteran, and family households. In FY 2022/23, tenant based rental assistance will continue to be offered through Families Forward and Mercy House. 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. To help prevent homelessness and protect at-risk populations, Huntington Beach identified the following objectives as provided in the City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element: 507 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 57 Program 5C. Homeless Assistance Objective: Continue participation in the County’s Regional Committee for the Continuum of Care and annually allocate CDBG monies to fund agencies serving the homeless and at- risk population. Continue to enhance service in this area and apply for available funding opportunities for homelessness assistance and response efforts. Pursue funding opportunities through Project Homekey and other funding sources as they become available to convert identified existing hotels and motels to permanent or interim housing for the target population. Program 5D. Low Barrier Navigation Center Objective: The City will adopt an ordinance to be compliant with State law regarding the definition, processing, and approval process for Low Barrier Navigation Centers. These efforts will be primarily led by the Deputy Director of Homelessness & Behavioral Health Services in collaboration with the Navigation Center to leverage resources to support the homeless community. In addition, the City continues to pursue opportunities to expand its affordable housing inventory to benefit primarily low-income renters. The City does not receive Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG) or Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) funding and therefore is not required to develop a discharge coordination policy. However, the City will continue to address a discharge coordination policy with the Orange County Housing Authority and the Continuum of Care Homeless Issues Task Force. 508 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 58 AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j) – Huntington Beach has a strong history of supporting affordable housing. The City has adopted numerous provisions in its Zoning Ordinance that facilitate a range of residential development types and encourage affordable housing. In late 2021, the City held several public meetings to update its Affordable Housing ordinance to better meet the needs and nuances of the community. The latest updates were necessary to provide compliance options with law, implement Housing Element programs, clarify that rental projects must provide affordable units at the lower income level, and revise the in-lieu fees and methodology to reflect current market conditions. In addition, the City and its former Redevelopment Agency have provided direct financial assistance to support affordable and mixed income housing projects. The loss of Redevelopment Housing Funds, which previously generated approximately $3 million per year for housing activities, has and will continue to dampen the level of future affordable housing production in the City. In addition to funding constraints, the primary barrier to the provision of affordable housing in Huntington Beach is the lack of vacant land suitable for residential development. Separate owners of smaller parcels hold much of the underdev eloped and residentially zoned land in the City. This calls for alternative policy tools, such as lot consolidation and/or demolition of existing older structures to accommodate higher density infill development. Through adoption of the Amended Downtown and Beach and Edinger Corridors Specific Plans, and the City’s Amended Housing Element, the City has provided opportunities for high density mixed use and residential infill. Actions it 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 Through the administration of the CDBG and HOME programs, every effort is made to remove barriers to affordable housing through agreements with for-profit and nonprofit affordable housing developers. These efforts also include working with neighborhood residents to ensure affordable housing projects are acceptable. Ongoing monitoring of “for sale” affordable units is conducted by department staff by assuring that the affordable housing covenants are recorded on title when the unit is sold. To address the decline in sources of 509 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 59 housing funds, the City will continue to advocate for and pursue federal, state, local and private funding sources for affordable housing. On December 6, 2021, the City submitted its 2021-2029 Housing Element to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). As part of the Housing Element, the HCD established the planning period for the current Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) from October 15, 2021, to October 15, 2029. For that planning period, the City is allocated 13,368 units of which 3,661 are for very low-income households and 2,184 are for low-income households. To meet the housing demands, the City will continue to assess and to the extent feasible, mitigate, its governmental constraints to housing for lower and moderate-income households and persons with disabilities. The Housing Element addresses the City’s provisions for affordable housing, emergency shelters, transitional housing, and supportive housing. The following programs in the City's 2021-2029 Housing Element specifically address the variety of regulatory and financial tools used by the City to remove barriers and facilitate the provision of affordable housing: Program 1B. Multi-family Acquisition and Rehabilitation Objective: The acquisition/rehabilitation program will continue to be a part of the City’s affordable housing program. The City intends to direct the majority of its housing funds towards new construction of affordable housing (refer to Goals 3 and 5). The City’s goal is to assist in the acquisition/rehabilitation of a minimum of 30 units across all income levels with a focus on housing available at the very low- and low-income levels over the planning period. Program 1D. Preservation of Assisted Rental Housing Objective: Continue to monitor at-risk rental units. Explore project owner interest to preserve affordability and opportunities for outside funding and preservation options. If affordability cannot be extended, provide technical assistance and education to affected tenants. Program 1E. Housing Authority Rental Assistance Objective: Seek to provide additional rental assistance for residents from the Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA), and coordinate with OCHA to identify additional apartment projects for participation in the Section 8 program. Continue to participate in meetings of the Cities Advisory to OCHA to maintain ongoing communication about the Section 8 program and other affordable housing activities. 510 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 60 Program 1F. Tenant-Based Rental Assistance Objective: Continue the TBRA program with qualified service providers and seek to assist 200 households during the eight-year planning period. Program 2A. Adequate Sites Objective: The City will undertake the actions identified in the Program 2A narrative to implement the adequate sites program concurrently with the adoption of the Housing Element. The City will undertake the following actions to implement the adequate sites program within 36 months of adoption of the 2021-2029 Housing Element update. Additionally, the City will continually monitor candidate housing sites and overall development within the City to ensure the City maintains overall capacity through the Annual Progress Reporting process. If the City’s remaining inventory falls below its remaining housing needs, the City will take the appropriate actions to identify additional sites to accommodate the shortfall. Program 2B. Establish Affordable Housing Overlay Zone Objective: The City will draft the development standards and regulations related to the Affordable Housing Overlay and adopt that zone within 36 months of the adoption of the Housing Element update. Program 2C. Accessory Dwelling Units Objective: Facilitate the provision of accessory dwelling units for seniors, caregivers, and other lower income households through dissemination of the City’s educational brochure on accessory dwelling units. Conduct focused education to the senior population and the community as a whole through the Huntington Beach Council on Aging and Senior Center in Central Park. Update the Accessory Dwelling Unit section of the HBZSO to consistently adapt to changing and updated provisions for ADU’s. Program 2D. ADU Monitoring Program Objective: The City will create a monitoring program to track ADU and JADU development and affordability levels throughout the planning period. This will allow the City to monitor the development of accessory units at all income levels. Additionally, the City will review their ADU and JADU development progress within two years of the adoption of the 6th cycle Housing Element to evaluate if production estimates are being achieved. If the City finds they are not meeting proportionate ADU development, the City will determine if this creates a shortfall in remaining capacity to meet RHNA. If this is the case, 511 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 61 the City will take the required actions needed to supplement the short fall in capacity within the required 180 days. Program 2E. Candidate Sites Identified in Previous Housing Elements Objective: The City will identify candidate housing sites within the sites inventory which may be subject to by right provisions if the criteria outlined in the Program 2E narrative are met and the development provides at least 20% of the proposed units affordable to lower income households. Program 3A. Affordable Housing Program and Housing Trust Fund Objective: Continue to utilize the Affordable Housing Ordinance as a tool to integrate affordable housing within market rate developments, or alternatively, to generate fees in support of affordable housing in off-site locations. Program 3B. Affordable Housing Development Assistance Objective: Continue to provide financial assistance for the development of affordable and mixed-income housing. Continue to provide technical assistance to developers of affordable and mixed-income housing projects. Program 4A. Affordable Housing Density Bonus Objective: Continue to implement the Affordable Housing Density Bonus as a means of enhancing the economic feasibility of affordable housing development. The City will amend the density bonus ordinance to maintain consistency with State law throughout the eight-year planning period. Program 4B. Development Fee Assistance Objective: Continue to offer fee reductions for affordable housing. As part of the update to the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance the City is currently working on, update the Code to specify the waiver of 100% of application fees for projects with a minimum 10% Extremely Low-Income units. Program 4C. Residential Processing Procedures Objective: Review existing processing procedures for residential development in the Zoning Code and make recommendations to the City Council to reduce processing times if found revisions are found to be appropriate. The City successfully completed two phases of the multi-phased comprehensive Zoning Code update. 512 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 62 AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k) Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The City of Huntington Beach has identified long-range strategies, activities, and funding sources to implement the goals in the areas of housing and community development services for the benefit of the residents. • The City will continue to seek other resources and funding sources to address the biggest obstacle to meeting the community's underserved needs, which is the lack of funding and/or inadequate funding. • The City will look for innovative and creative ways to make its delivery systems more comprehensive and will continue existing partnerships with both for-profit and not- for-profit organizations. • The City will use HOME and CDBG funds to concentrate on both affordable rental housing, tenant-based rental housing, and homeowner rehabilitation programs. • The City is currently addressing certain housing needs with federal funds, such as availability, condition, and fair housing practices to prevent homelessness. • The City is also addressing community development needs with federal funds, such as infrastructure, improving public facilities and code enforcement. • The City is working with surrounding jurisdictions on a regional approach to meeting the underserved needs. Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City’s Consolidated Plan has identified the preservation of existing, and the creation of new, affordable housing as an implementing goal during the 2020/21 – 2024/25 timeframe. The City will continue to maintain the Affordable Housing Viewer on its website to allow the public to view where affordable housing units are located in the City. The City will continue to offer funding to tenant based rental assistance programs in Huntington Beach through a combination of CDBG and HOME funds. In FY 2022/23, the City will allocate over $660,000 in CDBG and HOME funds to assist 50 households with rental assistance through Families Forward and Mercy House. The City also awarded $2.8 million in HOME funding to the development of a new affordable senior permanent supportive housing (PSH) project. The City partnered with a local 513 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 63 community housing development organization, or CHDO, Jamboree Housing Corporation to develop 43 units of senior housing at 18431 Beach Boulevard. Of the 43 units, nine will be HOME-restricted. The project is currently underway. Furthermore, the City will continue its residential rehabilitation programs available to Huntington Beach homeowners. The first program offers a one-time grant of up to $10,000 to eligible lower income homeowners to make emergency and health or safety-related household modifications. The second program offers a loan of up to $75,000 with an interest rate of 3% for single family home and multifamily rental housing improvements. Collectively, the City is proposing to assist eight lower-income households with rehabilitation assistance in FY 2022/23. Lastly, to supplement the cost of the City’s effort to update the streamlining process of affordable housing, the City was awarded an SB 2 Planning Grant Program grant from the California Department of Housing and Community Development. Huntington Beach is slated to receive approximately $550,000 per year to leverage CDBG and HOME funds in the areas of affordable housing and homelessness. Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards As a means of better protecting children and families against lead poisoning, in 1999 HUD instituted revised lead-based paint regulations focused around the following five activities: • Notification • Lead Hazard Evaluation • Lead Hazard Reduction • Ongoing Maintenance • Response to Children with Environmental Intervention Blood Lead Level The City has implemented HUD Lead Based Paint Regulations (Title X), which requires federally funded rehabilitation projects to address lead hazards. Lead-based paint abatement is part of the City's Residential Rehabilitation Program and the Acquisition/Rehabilitation of Affordable Rental Housing Program. Units within rental housing projects selected for rehabilitation are tested if not statutorily exempt. Elimination or encapsulation remedies are implemented if lead is detected and is paid for by either the developer of the project, or with CDBG or HOME funds, as appropriate. 514 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 64 To reduce lead-based paint hazards in existing housing, all housing rehabilitation projects supported with federal funds are tested for lead and asbestos. When a lead-based paint hazard is present, the City or the City’s sub-grantee contracts with a lead consultant for abatement or implementation of interim controls, based on the findings of the report. Tenants are notified of the results of the test and the clearance report. In Section 8 programs, staff annually inspects units on the existing program and new units as they become available. In all cases, defective paint surfaces must be repaired. In situations where a unit is occupied by a household with children under the age of six, corrective actions will include testing and abatement if necessary, or abatement without testing. Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families The City’s major objectives in reducing poverty within Huntington Beach are to: • Reduce the number of families on welfare; • Reduce the number of families needing housing subsidies; and • Increase economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income persons. The City’s anti-poverty strategy seeks to enhance the employability of residents through the promotion and support of programs, which provide employment training and supportive services, while expanding employment opportunities through the implementation of three Business Improvement Districts, and its Economic Development Strategy. The City’s Economic Development and Housing Division strives to ensure the public is made aware of any economic development opportunities that can be found via the City’s official website and on hbbiz.com, also maintained by the City. In terms of employment training and supportive services, the City supports literacy programs for families (Oakview Family Literacy Program) with a combination of General Funds and CDBG that help enhance the employability of low-income persons with deficient English speaking, reading, and writing skills. As funding permits, the City will continue to support the following public services to increase family stability for lower income households: • Counseling • Domestic Violence Prevention Services • Provision of food • Substance Abuse Services • Job Training 515 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 65 Lastly, the City of Huntington Beach supports a variety of economic development activities that help to create and retain jobs for low- and moderate-income households. Activities supported include a commercial property locator; employment assistance including of a referral service for finding and training employees; financial assistance through the Small Business Administration; business counseling and training via a litany of not-for-profit Orange County agencies; technical assistance in permits, trademarks, environmental review, and taxes; and export and trade assistance. Micro-enterprise assistance, job training services, and technical assistance are some areas that may warrant consideration for funding during the next Consolidated Plan period. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the City also expedited open air dining program permits, free of charge, to allow food service businesses to temporarily expand outdoors. The City will fully comply with Section 3 of the Housing and Community Development Act, which helps foster local economic development and individual self-sufficiency. This set of regulations require that to the greatest extent feasible, the City will provide job training, employment, and contracting opportunities for low- or very low-income residents in connection with housing and public construction projects. Actions planned to develop institutional structure As the recipient of CDBG and HOME funds, the City has delegated the Community Enhancement Division to be the lead department responsible for the overall administration of HUD grants. In that regard, the Division will prepare the Consolidated Plan and Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice every five years, draft the Annual Action Plan and CAPER, as well as all other reports required by federal rules and regulations.

Kovac, Housing Manager Subject: 2021-2022 Annual Action Plan Substantial Amendment to receive $2.2 million HOME Investment Partnerships - American Rescue Plan (HOME-ARP) funds to address housing and homelessness - adopt Resolution No. 2022-18 Statement of Issue: The City of Huntington Beach will be receiving $2.2 million from the federal American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 appropriations to the HOME Investment Partnerships program (HOME-ARP). HOME- ARP funds must be used to address affordable housing, homelessness, and homeless supportive services. Similar to the City’s annual allocation of HOME funds intended to increase the supply of affordable housing for low-income residents, HOME-ARP funds are allocated to address homelessness in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. In accordance with HOME-ARP funding requirements, the City has prepared an Allocation Plan in a prescribed format that identifies a needs assessment through public participation and consultation with local organizations. The Allocation Plan also identifies how the funds will be used to address the needs of the qualifying populations for housing, shelter, homeless assistance, and homeless prevention services. As described in the Allocation Plan, the City expects to use the HOME-ARP funds to provide supportive services at two projects (the Navigation Center and the HB Oasis Homekey project) for homeless persons in Huntington Beach and the surrounding areas. The Allocation Plan must be considered by the City Council as a Substantial Amendment to the 2021- 22 Annual Action Plan at a public hearing. Once approved and authorized for submission to U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Allocation Plan will be reviewed by HUD for its approval. Financial Impact: The City will receive $2,240,675 in HOME-ARP funds for Navigation Center and HB Oasis Homekey operations as identified in the Allocation Plan. Approval of the 2021-2022 Annual Action Plan Substantial Amendment integrating the Allocation Plan and HOME-ARP funding activities will not City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/14/2022Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™520 File #:22-270 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 impact the General Fund. Future Navigation Center operating expenses will also be funded through a combination of SB2, CDBG and General Fund revenues. As homeless and behavioral health services continue to expand through the region, staff is continually monitoring future grant opportunities that are expected to become available. The use of HOME-ARP funds for Year 5 operating expenses for the HB Oasis Homekey program was conditionally approved by the City Council on December 1, 2021 based on the following contingencies:1) successful acquisition of the site by the Developer or County; 2) receipt of sufficient County operating funding (or another non-City funding source) to cover operating costs for years one through four in the amount of $4.92 million; and 3) award of $15.66 million of Homekey grant funds as calculated and approved from HCD. The property is under contract with a closing target date of June 1, 2022, the County Board of Supervisor’s approved $4.92 million for the project and HCD has awarded $15.66 million contingent on execution of all agreements. Recommended Action: A) Conduct a public hearing; and, B) Adopt Resolution No. 2022-18, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Approving a 2021-2022 Annual Action Plan Substantial Amendment to Integrate the HOME-ARP Allocation Plan”; and, C) Authorize the submittal of the Allocation Plan to HUD for review and approval; and, D) Authorize the City Manager or their designee to execute all necessary related documents. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the 2021-22 Annual Action Plan Substantial Amendment as presented and direct staff accordingly. This action may contradict the City’s adopted 2020-2025 Consolidated Plan, including the Needs Assessment Survey component of this document. The City Council may choose to modify any of the funding recommendations for HOME-ARP projects and programs within the aggregate funding limit of $2,240,675. Analysis: On March 11,2021,President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan Act 2021 into law,which provided over $1.9 trillion dollars in relief to address the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy, public health,state and local governments,individuals, and businesses. Congress appropriated $5 billion dollars of these funds to be administered through the HOME program. HUD has allocated $2,240,675 of these funds,through formula allocations,to the City of Huntington Beach for activities that provide housing, services, and shelter to primarily benefit qualifying individuals and families who are homeless,at risk of being homeless,or in other vulnerable populations. Eligible HOME-ARP activities include: 1. Development and support of affordable housing City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/14/2022Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™521 File #:22-270 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 2. Tenant-based rental assistance 3. Provision of supportive services 4. Acquisition and development of non-congregate shelter units The HOME-ARP program allows local jurisdictions to use up to 15 percent of the allocation for planning and administration and the remaining balance for program activities. On September 22, 2021, the City entered into a Grant Agreement with HUD for HOME-ARP funds and began developing an Allocation Plan. The Allocation Plan must describe how the City intends to distribute the HOME-ARP funding and include public participation,an assessment of unmet needs of each qualifying population,and an assessment of gaps in housing and shelter inventory, homeless assistance and services, and homelessness prevention services. Public Participation & Community Needs Assessment For the public participation and community needs assessment,the City conducted an in-depth and collaborative effort to consult with various stakeholders including the Orange County Continuum of Care, the Fair Housing Foundation, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People-Orange County (NAACP-OC), Families Forward, Homeless United, the City’s Homeless Outreach Program and Senior Center, Mercy House, Robyne’s Nest, South County Outreach, and StandUp for Kids to find out what they felt are the priority needs of their clientele (homeless persons, veterans, elderly persons, persons with disabilities, and victims of domestic violence). This outreach concluded that most pressing need is for affordable rental housing, tenant based rental assistance, and various wrap around homeless services, such as employment and job training, mental health services, and transportation. The City also consulted with 63 homeless persons who reported affordable housing, transportation, homeless prevention, housing counseling, and case management as a significant need. Overall, the outreach found that the highest need for the qualifying populations in Huntington Beach was for additional affordable housing with wrap-around supportive services. A decent and affordable place to live, coupled with supportive services, helps homeless and those at risk of homelessness by freeing them from physical and mental hardships and placing them on a path of new opportunity and increased confidence and self -reliance. Proposed Allocation Plan Huntington Beach HOME-ARP funds are recommended to be used at two major homeless endeavors in the City. First, $385,971 is recommended for supportive services at the City’s Navigation Center, located at 17631 Cameron Lane. The operator of the emergency homeless shelter is Mercy House, a local non-profit agency that offers clients supportive services including housing placement services, life skills, health care resources, employment referrals, crisis evaluation/mental health resources, and drug/alcohol treatment. For the second program, $1,804,704, is recommended for supportive services at the upcoming Huntington Beach Oasis Homekey project, an interim non-congregate transitional housing facility, located at 17251 Beach Boulevard (currently a Quality Inn & Suites) that in the future will convert to permanent supportive housing when HUD voucher funding becomes available through the County. The City Council conditionally approved this funding at its December 1, 2021 meeting. This Homekey project is being developed in partnership with American Family Housing, National CORE, and the County of Orange. The balance of HOME-ARP in the amount of $50,000 is recommended for administration costs for preparation City of Huntington Beach Printed on 4/14/2022Page 3 of 4 powered by Legistar™522 File #:22-270 MEETING DATE:4/19/2022 The balance of HOME-ARP in the amount of $50,000 is recommended for administration costs for preparation of the Allocation Plan and implementation of the HOME-ARP program activities. The proposed administration costs represent only two percent of the total HOME-ARP funding, which is significantly less than the allowable 15 percent. Per HOME-ARP guidelines, upon City Council approval of the proposed Allocation Plan and following a minimum 15-day public review period, the plan will be integrated into the 2021-2022 Annual Action Plan, which was approved by the City Council on April 19, 2021. A public notice was published in The Wave on March 31, 2022 for the public review period from April 1 through April 19 and for the City Council public hearing on April 19. The proposed Allocation Plan is included as Attachment 1 and the adopting resolution for the City Council to consider is included as Attachment 2. Environmental Status: Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4), government fiscal activities that do not result in a physical change in the environment, and do not commit the lead agency to any specific project, do not constitute a project. Therefore, these activities are exempt in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3). Since federal dollars are being used for the proposed HOME-ARP activities, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance will be required prior to execution of a funding agreement and disbursement of funds. The City has completed all NEPA Compliance for the approved HOME-ARP funding activities. Strategic Plan Goal: Economic Development & Housing Attachment(s): 1.

HOMELESS The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires that all Continuum of Care jurisdictions across the country complete a biennial unsheltered count and an annual sheltered count of all individuals experiencing homelessness in the community on a single point in time during the last ten days of January. Orange County’s 2019 Sheltered Point in Time (PIT) Count took place the night of Tuesday, January 22, 2019, with client-level demographic information collected from all emergency shelter and transitional housing programs throughout the County. The 2019 Unsheltered PIT Count took place over two days, Wednesday January 23 and Thursday January 24, to ensure the 800 square mile county jurisdiction was canvassed effectively. Because of an improved PIT process, methodology and data quality from the use of GIS technology, the results of the 2019 PIT reflect the most accurate count of Orange Coun ty’s homeless population ever. It is important to note that the PIT Count goes beyond just the physical counting of persons experiencing homelessness and, in some instances, uses a formula to extrapolate the total number of homeless present. Also important to note is that the 2021 Point in Time Count was affected by local COVID-19 restrictions; therefore, the City of Huntington Beach will be relying on 2019 counts for this HOME-ARP Allocation Plan. 534 10 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan City of Huntington Beach and Central Service Planning Area (SPA) Homeless Statistics The January 2019 PIT count enumerated 349 homeless individuals in the City of Huntington Beach. Among the 349 homeless counted, only 60 (17%) were in some kind of emergency or transitional shelter, while the remaining 289 were found to live in places not designed for or ordinarily used as a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings, including a car, park, abandoned building, bus or train station, airport, or camping ground. Most of the homeless counted, 276 (79%), were individuals, whereas 68 (19%) were part of a family. Homeless persons characterized as “transitional age youth” (18-24 years old) made up 4% (14 persons) of the homeless count in Huntington Beach. There were also 24 seniors and 17 veterans among the 349 total homeless persons counted as part of the 2019 PIT count. The 2019 PIT Report did not include specific demographic composition data for the Huntington Beach homeless population; however, Huntington Beach is one of 10 cities that make up the Central Service Planning Area (SPA). The 2019 PIT reported 3,332 homeless persons in the Central SPA – 1,827 unsheltered and 1,505 were sheltered. The homeless count was made up of 72% White, 11% Black or African American, 8% that identified with Multiple or Other Races, and nearly 5% Asian persons. Additionally, 37% of all homeless persons in this count reported being of Hispanic ethnicity. Orange County Homeless Statistics According to the latest full homeless census (2019 Point in Time Count), there were 6,860 homeless persons in Orange County. Of this total, 57.74% (3,961 persons) were unsheltered and 42.26% (2,899 persons) were sheltered. The racial and ethnicity breakdown of the entire County resembled that of the Central SPA described above. White persons made up 72% of the total homeless population, 11% were Black or African American, nearly 9% are listed in the Multiple Races or Other category, and 3% were Asian. Hispanic or Latinos made up 36% of the 6,860 homeless persons. Additionally, there were 311 veterans, 275 transitional age youth (18-24 years old), and 612 seniors. Also noteworthy is the prevalence of chronic homelessness or one or more disabling conditions among adult individuals belonging to a family compared to those experiencing homelessness alone. The 2019 PIT counted a total of 5,880 adults (18+ yrs.) among the 6,860 total homeless and found that in general, disabling conditions in adults who were members of a family household were much lower than the disabling conditions experienced by individual adults that were not part of a family unit. For example, 15% of adults who were members of a family household had a substance abuse issue compared to 33% of individual adults. Also, 13% of adults who were members of a family household had a mental health issue compared to 30% of those not belonging to a family. Finally, 9% of adults in a family household fall into the Chronically Homeless subpopulation compared to 46% of individual adults. 535 11 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan Adult Subpopulation and Disabling Conditions Statistics Adults in Families v.

In 2020 and 2021, only sheltered persons were counted in the homeless census, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2020, there were 3,017 total sheltered persons, up by 118 persons from 2019. In 2021, there were 2,441 sheltered persons, down by 576 persons from 2020. This sheltered total included 1,379 individuals (one-person households), ages 18 and over. The majority of the sheltered persons were in emergency housing, as opposed to transitional housing. The drop in sheltered persons in 2021 is likely due to the closing of some emergency shelters and the opening of others in new locations, with differing requirements and capacities. AT RISK OF HOMELESSNESS To account for persons at‐risk of becoming homeless, the most recent (2014‐2018) Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) data was analyzed. This data con tains three particular characteristics of households that meets the definition of “at risk of 536 12 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan homelessness” found in 24 CFR Part 91.5. First, the CHAS data breaks down occupied housing units by HUD Area Median Family Income (HAMFI), including 30% and below of HAMFI. Next, the CHAS data provides information on occupied housing units with households that are severely cost burdened; that is, they are spending more than 50% of their income on housing related expenses. For renters, that includes rent and utilities. For homeowners, it includes the mortgage payment, utilities, association fees, insurance, and real estate taxes. And finally, the CHAS data contains information on housing units in which there reside more than 1.5 people per room , which is considered to be severely over-crowded. The CHAS data shows that of the 32,415 renter households in the City of Huntington Beach, 5,610 or 17% are occupied by households earning 30% or less of the HAMFI. Further, of these households, 82% (4,620) have one or more housing problems, defined as housing units that: 1) lack complete kitchen facilities; 2) lack complete plumbing facilities; 3) are over overcrowded; and 4) are cost burdened. A household is said to have a housing problem if they have any one or more of these four problems. The CHAS data shows that White households make up an overwhelming share of households that meet both criteria (earn 30% or less of HAMFI and have one or more housing problems) at 55%, with Hispanic households ranked second at 28%, and Asian households third at 11%. Black or African American households constitute 3% of these households. With regard to age, 33% of households earning less than 30% of the HAMFI and with one or more housing problems are seniors (62+ years of age). This category of seniors has a higher risk of homelessness due to the ever-increasing cost of living in California (rising housing, utility, food, and gas prices) while at the same time living on fixed incomes. Finally, the CHAS data revealed that of the 4,620 households earning less than 30% HAMFI, 77% are severely cost-burdened, and 3% are severely overcrowded. Severely cost burdened households are spending more than 50% of their income on housing related expenses, leaving the remaining 50% or less of their income available for other daily necessities such as food, gas, child and healthcare. Together, these make up 3,690 households that specifically meet the definition of “at risk of homelessness” at 24 CFR Part 91.5. 537 13 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan Renter-Occupied Housing Units with Households Earning <= 30% HAMFI 5,610 One or More Housing Problems* 4,620 82% Race/Ethnicity White 2,565 56% Black or African American 150 3% Asian 530 11% American Indian or Alaska Native 20 < 1% Pacific Islander 0 0% Other Race/Multiple Races 80 2% Hispanic 1,275 27% Age Non-Elderly 3,100 67% 62-74 Years Old 925 20% 75+ Years Old 590 13% Housing Problem Households with No Kitchen or Plumbing Facilities 215 5% Households with 1.5+ Persons per Room 145 3% Households with 1 – 1.5 Persons per Room 390 8% Households Over 50% Cost Burdened 3,545 77% Households 30-50% Cost Burdened 325 7% * 1) lack complete kitchen facilities; 2) lack complete plumbing facilities; 3) are over overcrowded; and 4) are cost burdened FLEEING, OR ATTEMPTING TO FLEE, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, STALKING, OR HUMAN TRAFFICKING The City has seen a slight decline in domestic violence‐related calls for assistance to the Huntington Beach Police Department. From 2011-2015, there was an average of 463 domestic violence‐related calls per year while the most recent data (2016-2020) shows an average of 425 domestic violence‐related calls per year (State of California Department of Justice, (https://openjustice.doj.ca.gov/exploration/crime-statistics/domestic-violence-related-calls-assistance ). The 2019 Orange County Point in Time count reported 104 homeless households living in units designated for victims of domestic violence in the Central SPA, which includes the City of Huntington Beach. Of the 104 households, one was a one-person household and the remaining 103 were households with children. The 2021 Orange County Housing Inventory Count shows no housing projects dedicated to persons fleeing, or attempting to flee, domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, or human trafficking in Huntington Beach or in the Central SPA. However, Interval House operates one Crisis Shelter & Center for Victims of Domestic Violence with 75 beds, and manages an additional 70 rapid re-housing beds at scattered sites throughout Orange County. 538 14 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan OTHER POPULATIONS Other Families Requiring Services or Housing Assistance to Prevent Homelessness As discussed above, the 2019 Point in Time Count reported 60 sheltered individuals in the City of Huntington Beach. Of these, five were individuals and 50 were part of a family unit (the remaining five individuals from the PIT were not identified). Additionally, of the 60 sheltered homeless, two were transitional age youth (18-24 years old), one was a senior, and one was a veteran. Race and ethnicity data was not available for these homeless subpopulations. All 60 persons were previously qualified as “homeless” as defined under 24 CFR Part 91.5 before entering temporary or emergency shelter. The fact that they reside in temporary or emergency shelter, undoubtedly makes them more vulnerable to entering homelessness again if supportive services and/or housing assistance is terminated. At Greatest Risk of Housing Instability Persons at greatest risk of housing instability are those that: 1) are earning 30% or below the HAMFI and are severely cost-burdened (paying 50% or more on housing); or 2) are earning 50% or less of HAMFI and meet one of the following conditions: 1. Has moved two or more times in the two months immediately preceding their application for homelessness prevention assistance. 2. Is living in the home of another because of economic hardship. 3. Has been formally notified of eviction within 21 days after the date of appl ication for assistance. 4. Lives in a hotel or motel and the cost of staying at the hotel or motel is not borne by a federal, state, or local government program. 5. Lives in an over-crowded (more than one person per room) single-room occupancy (SRO) or efficiency apartment units, or lives in a severely overcrowded (more than 1.5 persons per room) larger housing unit. 6. Is exiting a publicly funded institution, or system of care (health care facility, mental health facility, foster care or other youth facility, or correction program or institution). 7. Otherwise lives in housing that has characteristics associated with instability and an increased risk of homelessness, as identified in the recipient’s approved Consolidated Plan. For the first group of persons/households at greatest risk of instability, that is, they earn less than or equal to 30% of HAMFI and are severely cost-burdened, the 2014-2018 CHAS data reports that there are 6,270 households that meet this criterion. Of these, 67% or 4,210 are households that rent, making them more vulnerable to housing instability and homelessness. Information on each of the conditions listed above for the second category of persons at greatest risk of housing instability is not readily available, with the exception of data on overcrowding. The 2014-2018 CHAS data described 615 households earning 50% or less of HAMFI living in 539 15 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan overcrowded conditions, 93% of which were renter households. Worse, the data showed an additional 320 households experiencing severe overcrowding, and 97% of them were renters. VETERANS AND FAMILIES THAT INCLUDE A VETERAN FAMILY MEMBER According to the 2019 American Community Su rvey (ACS), Huntington Beach currently has a population of 8,029 veterans in the city. The number of veterans that are homeless make up less than 1% (17 persons) of the veteran population, pursuant to the 2019 Point in Time Count. Of this, 94% were unsheltered and 6% were sheltered. Review of the 2021 Orange County Housing Inventory Count listed one HUD-VASH program operating in Huntington Beach providing 971 vouchers to veterans, individuals, and families. The HUD-VASH program is a partnership between the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) designed to provide case management and supportive services along with subsidized housing vouchers for eligible homeless veteran families. Describe the unmet housing and service needs of qualifying populations, including but not limited to: Sheltered and unsheltered homeless populations; Those currently housed populations at risk of homelessness; Other families requiring services or housing assistance or to prevent homelessness; and Those at greatest risk of housing instability or in unstable housing situations. According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, “…poverty, unemployment, and lack of affordable housing are commonly recognized causes of homelessness. These risk factors can be exacerbated by personal vulnerabilities, such as mental and substance use disorders, trauma and violence, domestic violence, justice-system involvement, sudden serious illness, divorce, death of a partner, and disabilities.” The City of Huntington Beach is no exception to this finding. As the number of homeless persons in Huntington Beach continues to increase, so does the need for additional affordable housing and supportive services aimed to move them out of homelessness and housing instability. As reported in the 2019 Point in Time Count, Huntington Beach is home to nearly 60 homeless people experiencing homelessness with shelter, and another 289 people experiencing homelessness without shelter. Further, according to the 2014-2018 Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (“CHAS”), of the 32,415 renter households in the City, 52% (16,785 households) are paying the normal or expected 30% or below of their income on housing related expenses; however, that means that the remaining 48% of all renter households are experiencing some level of cost burden. The cost burdens are more serious for households with the lowest incomes (at or below 30% of Area Median Income). Of the 5,610 renter households earning less than or equal to 30% AMI, 4,575 of them (82%) are cost burdened (paying more than 30% of their income toward rent), and 75% of them are severely cost burdened (paying more than 50% of their income toward rent) making them more at risk of homelessness. These significant housing cost burdens affect thousands of Huntington Beach residents, and it is critical that the City continue developing new affordable housing for people with the lowest incomes in the community. 540 16 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan According to the 2021 Orange County Housing Inventory Count, t he City of Huntington Beach has 770 family beds and 414 adult-only beds, for a total of 1,184 beds within the City. While it would appear that Huntington Beach has sufficient bed capacity to meet the shelter demands of the City’s homeless population, it should be noted that over 80% of these units are HUD Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) tenant-based vouchers that are controlled and implemented by the County of Orange. These vouchers are available to veterans and their families only and are portable, meaning veteran families may use vouchers anywhere in the County; not all 971 VASH vouchers are available to Huntington Beach homeless persons and families. In fact, the 2019 PIT reported a mere 17 veteran homeless persons in the City; therefore, the vast majority of the 971 VASH vouchers available are for eligible veterans from other jurisdictions. In reality, only 213 beds are available in the City including 128 emergency shelter beds (number of beds increases to 178 without social distancing imposed by COVID-19 requirements), 41 transitional housing beds, and 44 permanent supportive housing beds. Ultimately, what this means is that there is a shortage of housing options for those that are homeless or at risk of homelessness in Huntington Beach. Despite the 213 beds in emergency, transitional, and permanent supportive housing, there remains 305 unsheltered homeless individuals, and over 4,200 renter households earning below 30% HAMFI that are severely cost burdened making them at risk of homelessness. With regard to needed services, the PIT report for Orange County (information not available for Huntington Beach only) describes homeless persons as: • 36% chronically homeless • 26% with substance abuse issues • 21% with a physical disability • 24% with mental health disorders • 9% with developmental disabilities • 8% are victims of domestic violence With a variety of issues afflicting and often contributing to homelessness, as seen above, services to support the homeless is crucial for longstanding success. Case management and other housing and shelter programs can help address the root causes of homelessness through a range of essential support services, including childcare, mental and substance abuse treatments, domestic violence advocacy, employment training, and other wrap around services. As was learned from the consultation process, many of these services are already being carried out throughout the community. However, when offered in tandem with housing in a streamlined process, the chances of success are increased. Referring once again to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services website, it is reported that “research suggests that intervention services to prevent homelessness is more cost effective than addressing issues after someone is already homeless. The longer a person is homeless, the harder and more expensive it becomes to re-house this person.” In that vein, services such as 541 17 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan rapid re-housing, providing food support, childcare, benefits advocacy, veteran’s services, rental and/or utility assistance, security deposit assistance, and trauma or domestic violence support systems, can be very beneficial to prevent homelessness in the first place. Identify and consider the current resources available to assist qualifying popu lations, including congregate and non-congregate shelter units, supportive services, TBRA, and affordable and permanent supportive rental housing. The City of Huntington Beach is a recipient of the annual Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership Act Program (HOME). Together, the City receives approximately $1.9 million from these entitlement programs to address affordable housing and low- and moderate-income community development needs. Additionally, the City received a special allocation of CARES Act CDBG in 2019 as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic in the sum of almost $2.16 million. Huntington Beach uses it’s federal funding on a variety of pro jects and programs that serve the qualifying populations already. For example, HOME funds are used to provide 50 lower income households a year with tenant based rental assistance (TBRA). TBRA is targeted specifically to homeless persons, persons at risk of homelessness, victims of domestic violence, and veterans. HOME will also be used to help fund a 43-unit affordable, permanent supportive housing development for seniors. Many of the recipients of TBRA and affordable housing units would likely enter homelessness without the financial assistance they are receiving from the City. The CDBG program funds several supportive services for qualifying populations, as well. For example, the Cameron Lane Navigation Center, an emergency homeless shelter offering onsite services including benefits and document, employment, substance use and recovery, education, mental health, self-care, housing navigation, and physical health services is currently being funded with CDBG and CARES Act funding. So necessary are these supportive services to the successful transition to housing stability and overall health, that the City is proposing to use HOME-ARP to fund additional supportive services at the Navigation Center. Recipients of these services are the homeless, persons at risk of homelessness, victims of domestic violence, veterans, and other qualifying populations. CDBG also helps to support local programs, such as StandUp for Kids Street Outreach, which provides wrap-around support aimed at moving youth facing homelessness into safe and stable housing. Youth are assessed for their immediate needs and provided with food, clothing, hygiene products, and transitional housing as needed. Youth are then linked with a volunteer mentor who assists the youth to create a pathway to self-sufficiency and to obtain safe and stable housing. This pathway can include assistance, job search and resume strategies, household and budget management, and home-finding assistance. The City’s General Fund is also an important funding source to assist the qualifying populations. The General Fund is currently being utilized to support the City’s Homeless Task Force, comprised of Case Managers and Homeless Liaison Officers. The Task Force works collaboratively to connect 542 18 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan individuals experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness with resources to help them navigate the barriers they face in maintaining stable housing. Resources include, but are not limited to, shelter, reunification with family members, mental and physical health services, addiction services, social services, and government benefits. Be Well Huntington Beach is a Mobile Crisis Response Team also funded by the City of Huntington Beach and staffed by Be Well OC to provide 24/7 community-based assessment and stabilization of individuals experiencing psychological crisis, challenges related to substance abuse, and other non-medical emergency challenges. Each team consists of two crisis counselors who deescalate a situation and provide a compassionate response to those experiencing a mental health crisis in their homes, on the streets or at a public location. Finally, the City of Huntington Beach has an Affordable Housing Program consisting of multifamily apartment complexes throughout the City that include affordable units. The City has agreements with the owners of these units to maintain rents at levels below regular market rent rates. In total, the City currently has a portfolio of 2,467 rental units affordable to households at various levels: • 8 units affordable to extremely low-income households • 899 units affordable to very low-income households • 543 units affordable to low-income households • 25 units affordable to median income households • 326 units affordable to moderate (up to 120% AMI) income households Affordable and permanent supportive housing developments in Huntington Beach have long wait lists for entry. The Orange County Coordinated Entry generally assesses thousands of people each year, and offers housing to a small fraction. With 350 people experiencing homelessness and thousands more experiencing rental cost burden, additional affordable and permanent supportive housing is desperately needed for all of the qualifying populations. The 2021-2029 Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) for the City of Huntington Beach echoes this sentiment. The RHNA reports that the City of Huntington Beach has a total housing need of 13,368 units. From this allocation, the RHNA designates: • 3,661 units affordable to very low-income households • 2,184 units affordable to low-income households • 2,308 units affordable to moderate-income households • 5,215 units affordable to above moderate-income households Identify any gaps within the current shelter and housing inventory as well as the service delivery system. As presented earlier in this Plan, the number of individuals and families that meet the criteria of a qualifying population under the HOME-ARP guidance exceeds the number of available units to house them. The City has 349 homeless individuals when last counted in 2019, 289 that are 543 19 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan unsheltered and 60 that are sheltered. The number of homeless reveals the need for additional housing units, along with services to support them. Moreover, the thousands of renter households that are both living in poverty and are severely cost burdened or severely overcrowded are indications of the serious deficit of homes affordable and available to all of the qualified populations, including victims of domestic violence and veterans. This housing shortage in Huntington Beach demonstrated above by the CHAS and RHNA data, shows the dire need for additional homeless housing opportunities including emergency shelters, permanent supportive housing, and non-congregate shelter options, including through opportunistic acquisitions of existing multifamily buildings, hotels, and motels. The City distributed 20 Provider Questionnaires to local service agencies that provide a variety of services ranging from homeless services, affordable housing, street outreach, fair housing, civil rights, and tenant based rental assistance, among other services. Ten agencies responded to the questionnaire. In addition, the City conducted a similar questionnaire with individuals who were experiencing homelessness and received 63 responses. Providers were asked what they perceived to be the services that the homeless community significantly needed. Individuals experiencing homelessness were directly asked what services they significantly needed. The tables below show how each service ranked by respondents. As seen in the Results of Service Provider Questionnaire table below, affordable rental housing, housing financial assistance, and homeless prevention services ranked first among all of the services and programs listed on the questionnaire with 80% of respondents identifying these as having the most significant need among their clientele. Tenant based rental assistance, employment assistance/job training, mental health services, and transportation ranked second with 60% of respondents marking these as being significantly needed in Huntington Beach. Housing search and counseling, life skills training, and case management were the third most popular responses among service providers. Results of Service Provider Questionnaire Rank Service 1 (80%) Affordable Rental Housing Housing Financial Assistance (security deposits, utility assistance, moving costs, first and last month’s rent) Homeless Prevention Services 2 (60%) Tenant Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) Employment Assistance/Job Training Mental Health Services Transportation 3 (50%) Housing Search and Counseling Services Life Skills Training Case Management 4 (40%) Food Outpatient Health Services Outreach Services Landlord/Tenant Liaison 5 (30%) Non-Congregate Shelter Substance Abuse Treatment Services Services for Victims of Domestic Violence/Dating Violence/Sexual Assault/Human Trafficking 544 20 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan 6 (20%) Childcare Education Services Housing Counseling 7 (10%) Legal Services Credit Repair 8 (0%) Mediation Similar to the responses received from service providers, the 63 homeless persons that provided completed questionnaires agree that their most significant needs are for affordable rental housing (84% of respondents), tenant based rental housing (84%), housing search and counseling services (73%), transportation (62%), housing financial assistance (63%), homeless prevention (63%), housing counseling (62%), and case management (60%). However, while providers ranked employment assistance/job training, mental health services, and life skills training among the top three significant needs, these services were only ranked in 5th and 6th place by homeless persons. Specifically, 44% of homeless respondents felt mental health services were significantly needed, and even less, 32%, reported employment assistance/job training and life skills training were in significant need. Results of Homeless Questionnaire Rank Service 1 (80+%) Affordable Rental Housing Tenant Based Rental Assistance 2 (70+%) Housing Search and Counseling Services 3 (60+%) Transportation Housing Financial Assistance (security deposits, utility assistance, moving costs, first and last month’s rent) Homeless Prevention Housing Counseling Case Management 4 (50+%) Food 5 (40+%) Non-Congregate Shelter Mental Health Services 6 (30+%) Employment Assistance/Job Training Life Skills Training Outpatient Health Services Outreach Services Credit Repair Landlord/Tenant Liaison 7 (20+%) Education Services Legal Services Substance Abuse Treatment Services Mediation Services for Victims of Domestic Violence/Dating Violence/Sexual Assault/Human Trafficking 8 (10+%) Childcare 545 21 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan Identify the characteristics of housing associated with instability and an increased risk of homelessness if the PJ will include such conditions in its definition of “other populations” as established in the HOME-ARP Notice. Housing associated with instability and an increased risk of homelessness are those that 1) are occupied by persons earning 30% or below the HAMFI and are severely cost-burdened (paying 50% or more on housing); or 2) inhabit persons that are earning 50% or less of HAMFI and are severely overcrowded (living with 1.5 or more persons per room). Households meeting these definitions tend to live in housing with deferred maintenance and are in need of rehabilitation. Identify priority needs for qualifying populations. Without a doubt, analysis of the 2019 Point in Time Count, CHAS data, American Community Survey data, and consultation with the various agencies conducted as part of this Plan reveal the need for more affordable housing and housing-related supportive services. People without homes, need homes. The high and rapidly escalating housing costs combined with the COVID-19 pandemic and economic displacement in Orange County creates harmful instability for the qualified populations. It is difficult for members of the qualified populations to find affordable housing of any kind in Huntington Beach. Personal needs and challenges become exponentially worse if you are in poverty, or worse, homeless. Investing in transitional housing and non- congregate shelters allows services to be accessed and for individuals to begin to recover. Explain how the level of need and gaps in its shelter and housing inventory and service delivery systems based on the data presented in the plan were determined. The City of Huntington Beach analyzed several data sources to determine the needs and gaps in the City’s shelter and housing inventory and in the service delivery systems. First, the City extracted Huntington Beach-specific data, Central SPA data, and Orange County data from the 2019 Orange County Point in Time Count. The PIT provided valuable data on the number of sheltered and unsheltered homeless, families and individual homeless persons, and transitional aged youth, senior, and veteran homeless persons. Further, data on the number of homeless persons fleeing domestic violence was provided on a countywide basis. Next, the City accessed data from the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (“CHAS”). CHAS data is provided annually from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and includes custom tabulations of American Community Survey (ACS) data from the U.S. Census. The data demonstrates the extent of housing problems and needs, particularly for low - income households. CHAS data was used by Huntington Beach to determine housing tenure by the various income levels, the number of households experiencing cost burden and/or overcrowded conditions, race and ethnicity statistics of extremely low-income households, and other data needed to characterize households at risk of homelessness. 546 22 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan Third, the City retrieved data from the City’s 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), and the Orange County Housing Inventory Count to gather information on housing needs, current housing available in Huntington Beach, and current service programs offered with federal funding. Finally, the City consulted with various stakeholders including the Orange County CoC, the Fair Housing Foundation, NAACP-OC, Families Forward, Homeless United, the City’s Homeless Outreach Program and Senior Center, Mercy House, Robyne’s Nest, South County Outreach, and StandUp for Kids to find out what they felt are the priority needs of their clientele (homeless persons, veterans, elderly persons, persons with disabilities, and victims of domestic violence). The most pressing need is for affordable rental housing, tenant based rental assistance, and various wrap around homeless services, such as employment and job training, mental health services, and transportation to name a few. The City also consulted with 63 homeless persons who reported affordable housing, transportation, homeless prevention, housing counseling, and case management as a significant need. Overall, the City found that the highest need for the qualifying populations in Huntington Beach was for additional affordable housing with wrap-around supportive services. A decent and affordable place to live, coupled with supportive services, helps homeless and those at risk of homelessness by freeing them from such physical and mental hardships and placing them on a path of new opportunity and increased confidence and self-reliance. PROPOSED HOME -ARP ACTIVITIES Describe the method for soliciting applications for funding and/or selecting developers, service providers, subrecipients and/or contractors and whether the PJ will administer eligible activities directly. Huntington Beach HOME-ARP funds will be used to fund supportive services at two major homeless endeavors in the City. First, the City will provide $385,971 for supportive services at the Cameron Lane Navigation Center, located at 17631 Cameron Lane. The operator for the emergency homeless shelter is Mercy House, a local non -profit agency that was one of two agencies that responded to the City’s Request for Proposals (RFP). The bulk of HOME-ARP funds, $1,804,704, will be used to fund supportive services at the upcoming Huntington Beach Oasis project, a non-congregate shelter located at 17251 Beach Boulevard (former Quality Inn & Suites). This Homekey project will be developed in partnership with American Family Housing, National CORE, and the County of Orange. The County of Orange will solicit applications through a Request for Proposals from non-profit agencies to provide supportive services. If any portion of the PJ’s HOME-ARP administrative funds were provided to a subrecipient or contractor prior to HUD’s acceptance of the HOME-ARP allocation plan because the 547 23 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan subrecipient or contractor is responsible for the administration of the PJ’s entire HOME-ARP grant, identify the subrecipient or contractor and describe its role and responsibilities in administering all of the PJ’s HOME-ARP program: Not applicable. PJs must indicate the amount of HOME-ARP funding that is planned for each eligible HOMEARP activity type and demonstrate that any planned funding for nonprofit organization operating assistance, nonprofit capacity building, and administrative costs is within HOME -ARP limits. The following table may be used to meet this requirement. Use of HOME-ARP Funding Proposed Funding Amount Percent of the Grant Statutory Limit Supportive Services $ 2,190,675 Acquisition and Development of Non- Congregate Shelters $ 0 Tenant Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) $ 0 Development of Affordable Rental Housing $ 0 Non-Profit Operating $ 0 0 % 5% Non-Profit Capacity Building $ 0 0 % 5% Administration and Planning $ 50,000 2.23 % 15% Total HOME ARP Allocation $ 2,240,675 Additional narrative, if applicable. The City of Huntington Beach will provide essential supportive services at two local project locations utilizing HOME-ARP funding. First, $1,804,704 will be allocated to the Project Homekey development, Huntington Beach Oasis (formerly the Quality Inn & Suites), located at 17251 Beach Boulevard, Huntington Beach. The City of Huntington Beach, along with American Family Housing, National CORE, and the County of Orange will partner to convert a former hotel into 62 affordable apartment units plus two (2) manager’s units, for a total of 64 units. The income of the tenants will be restricted to 30 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI) for Orange County (TCAC Income Limits). The units will target chronically homeless persons and homeless persons with disabilities. Tenants will not be required to pay rent (interim housing). The unit types will consist of studio and one-bedroom plans. The City’s contribution of $1,804,704 in HOME-ARP will provide supportive services in Year 5 of the project (FY 2027/28). Secondly, the City of Huntington Beach will invest $385,971 in HOME-ARP to supportive services offered at the new Cameron Lane Navigation Center located at 17631 Cameron Lane. The Navigation Center opened in December 2020 as a 174-bed emergency homeless shelter. Supportive services to be funded with HOME-ARP include housing search and counseling services, mental health services, and life skills training and case management. The project timeline for expenditure of HOME-ARP funds is Fiscal Years 2022/23 and 2023/24. 548 24 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan Describe how the characteristics of the shelter and housing inventory, service delivery system, and the needs identified in the gap analysis provided a rationale for the plan to fund eligible activities. The City continues to make a considerable effort to increase its inventory of affordable housing units. However, the demand for the available units far outstrips the supply as shown in the tables above. Based on the Point in Time Count, there were 349 total homeless persons in Huntington Beach in 2019, 289 of them unsheltered despite the efforts of the City, County, and non-profit industry to house and provide needed support services to them. Additionally, there are over 4,000 renter households at risk of homelessness. They are reportedly making equal to or less than 30% HAMFI while at the same time, spending over 50% of their incomes on housing related expenses. The RHNA further indicates a need for 3,661 units for very low-income families, and 2,184 units for low-income households. New affordable housing developments typically take at least 3‐6 years from concept to occupancy. However, the state Homekey program requires project completion within 12 months of the funding award, which results in affordable units on an expedited timeline. The HB Oasis project will provide additional housing units for homeless persons on an immediate basis, and will utilize HOME-ARP to provide wrap around supportive services to give them the help they need to become stable and transition to more permanent housing. Supportive services will also be offered at the Cameron Lane Navigation Center . Any individual who has experienced time living on the streets unhoused is likely to have struggled with a variety of challenges. These challenges may include mental and/or physical health issues, substance use problems, trauma or abuse, lack of employment, or contact with the criminal justice system. Supportive services that address these and many other issues are key in assisting any individual experiencing homelessness. HOME -ARP PRODUCTION HOUSING GOALS Estimate the number of affordable rental housing units for qualifying populations that the PJ will produce or support with its HOME-ARP allocation. The proposed HB Oasis Homekey project will convert 66 motel rooms into 64 interim/transitional housing units – 31 for homeless and 31 for chronically homeless persons, and two units for an onsite manager and a maintenance technician. Once Project Based Vouchers can be obtained, the project will convert to permanent supportive housing (PSH). Huntington Beach’s HOME-ARP funds will be used to support this development by providing onsite supportive services to residents to move them into housing stability. Describe the specific affordable rental housing production goal that the PJ hopes to achieve and describe how it will address the PJ’s priority needs. 549 25 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan The City expects to use the HOME‐ARP funds to provide supportive services at two projects for homeless persons in Huntington Beach and the surrounding areas. First, the City is in the process of developing HB Oasis, a non-congregate shelter located at 17251 Beach Boulevard, Huntington Beach. HB Oasis will provide interim housing services for up to 62 units for adult individuals and households experiencing homelessness in the Orange County Central Service Planning Area. The HB Oasis will provide property management, residential and supportive services that meet the complex needs of people experiencing homelessness. HB Oasis will provide a trauma informed, and evidence-based interim operations by identifying tools and re-integrating participants back into the community through case management and linkages to permanent housing. The City will invest $1.8 million of HOME-ARP funding to provide individualized supportive services to meet the complex needs of those experiencing homelessness. PREFERENCES Identify whether the PJ intends to give preference to one or more qualifying populations or a subpopulation within one or more qualifying populations for any eligible activity or project: • Preferences cannot violate any applicable fair housing, civil rights, and nondiscrimination requirements, including but not limited to those requirements listed in 24 CFR 5.105(a). • PJ’s are not required to describe specific projects to which the preferences will apply. The proposed Homekey project would serve individuals who are homeless and chronically homeless. If a preference was identified, explain how the use of a preference or method of prioritization will address the unmet need or gap in benefits and services received by individuals and families in the qualifying population or category of qualifying population, consistent with the PJ’s needs assessment and gap analysis. As previously discussed in the section on unmet needs and gaps in services for people who were homeless, there is a high need for affordable rental housing, transitional housing, permanent supportive housing, and wrap around supportive services. This decision was largely based on the data analysis of the Point in Time Count, CHAS data, RHNA projections, and consultation with various non-profit agencies and homeless persons. If a preference was identified, describe how the PJ will use HOME-ARP funds to address the unmet needs or gaps in benefits and services of the other qualifying populations that are not included in the preference. The City of Huntington Beach will continue to utilize its annual federal CDBG and HOME allocations to provide services and housing to persons in the other qualifying populations. 550 26 | P a g e City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan HOME -ARP REFINANCING GUIDELINES If the PJ intends to use HOME-ARP funds to refinance existing debt secured by multifamily rental housing that is being rehabilitated with HOME-ARP funds, the PJ must state its HOME- ARP refinancing guidelines in accordance with 24 CFR 92.206(b). The guidelines must describe the conditions under with the PJ will refinance existing debt for a HOME-ARP rental project, including: Establish a minimum level of rehabilitation per unit or a required ratio between rehabilitation and refinancing to demonstrate that rehabilitation of HOME-ARP rental housing is the primary eligible activity. Not applicable. Require a review of management practices to demonstrate that disinvestment in the property has not occurred; that the long-term needs of the project can be met; and that the feasibility of serving qualified populations for the minimum compliance period can be demonstrated. Not applicable. State whether the new investment is being made to maintain current affordable units, create additional affordable units, or both. Not applicable. Specify the required compliance period, whether it is the minimum 15 years or longer. Not applicable. State that HOME-ARP funds cannot be used to refinance multifamily loans made or insured by any federal program, including CDBG. Not applicable. Other requirements in the PJ’s guidelines, if applicable. Not applicable. 551 Appendix City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan APPENDIX HOME-ARP CERTIFICATIONS SF424 APPLICATION FOR FEDERAL ASSISTANCE SF424-B ASSURANCES – NON-CONSTRUCTION PROGRAMS SF424-D ASSURANCES – CONSTRUCTION PROGRAMS PROOF OF PUBLICATION SERVICE PROVIDER QUESTIONNAIRE RESPONSES HOMELESS QUESTIONNAIRE RESPONSES 552 Appendix City of Huntington Beach HOME-ARP Allocation Plan APPENDIX HOME-ARP CERTIFICATIONS SF424 APPLICATION FOR FEDERAL ASSISTANCE SF424-B ASSURANCES – NON-CONSTRUCTION PROGRAMS SF424-D ASSURANCES – CONSTRUCTION PROGRAMS PROOF OF PUBLICATION SERVICE PROVIDER QUESTIONNAIRE RESPONSES HOMELESS QUESTIONNAIRE RESPONSES 553 APPENDIX A HOME-ARP CERTIFICATIONS 554 [To be added after adoption of HOME-ARP Allocation Plan.] 555 APPENDIX B APPLICATION FOR FEDERAL ASSISTANCE (SF 424) FOR HOME-ARP PROGRAM 556 [To be added after adoption of HOME-ARP Allocation Plan.] 557 APPENDIX C ASSURANCES – CONSTRUCTION PROGRAM (SF 424-B) FOR HOME-ARP PROGRAM 558 [To be added after adoption of HOME-ARP Allocation Plan.] 559 APPENDIX D ASSURANCES – CONSTRUCTION PROGRAM (SF 424-D) FOR HOME-ARP PROGRAM 560 [To be added after adoption of HOME-ARP Allocation Plan.] 561 APPENDIX E PROOF OF PUBLICATION 562 [To be added after adoption of HOME-ARP Allocation Plan.] 563 APPENDIX F SERVICE PROVIDER QUESTIONNAIRE RESPONSES 564 City of Huntington Beach HOME American Rescue Plan Provider Questionnaire The American Rescue Plan (ARP) will provide $2.24 million to assist individuals or households who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, and other vulnerable populations, by providing housing, rental assistance, supportive services, and non- congregate shelter, to reduce homelessness and increase housing stability in Huntington Beach.
