Amendments to the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan and the 2020- 2024 Consolidated Plan ("Substantial Amendments") for the CDBG and HOME programs are proposed to help fund the proposed senior Mobile Home Tenant Based Rental Assistance (MHTBRA) Program and also authorize various minor funding and performance objective adjustments to previously approved programs. Staff has also proposed guidelines for the MHTBRA Program ("Guidelines"), as well as an amendment to the City's Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Policies and Procedures ("Housing Rehab Policies") that incorporates the MHTBRA Program into the housing rehabilitation program. This amendment will allow the program to offer small grants to address corrections identified during the Housing Quality Standards (HQS) inspections that HUD requires for TBRA assistance. Should the City Council approve the Substantial Amendments to the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan and 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, the MHTBRA Guidelines, and the amendment to the Housing Rehab Policies Program, following a HUD-mandated 45-day review and approval process, the MHTBRA Program can commence as early as mid-January 2023. City of Huntington Beach Page 1 of 6 Printed on 10/28/2022 powereei LegistarT File #: 22-846 MEETING DATE: 11/1/2022 Financial Impact: The City has available funding to implement the proposed MHTBRA Program in the amount of $391,654 in HOME funds and $143,000 in CDBG funds. Approval of the Substantial Amendments to the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan and the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan will not impact the General Fund. Approval of temporary rent reductions at Ocean View Estates will result in less rental income to the General Fund of approximately $1,058 per month for each eligible resident. Recommended Action: Staff recommends that the City Council: A) Conduct a public hearing for Amendment No. 1 (Substantial) to the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan and Amendment No. 3 (Substantial) to the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan; and, B) Adopt Resolution No. 2022-61, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Approving Amendment No. Three (Substantial) to the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan;" and, C) Adopt Resolution No. 2022-56, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Approving Amendment No. One (Substantial) to the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan"; and, D) Approve the Mobile Home Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program Guidelines; and, E) Approve the amendment to the City's Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Policies and Procedures; and, F) Appropriate $391,654 in 2021-2022 carryover HOME Investment Partnerships Program funding and $143,000 in 2022-2023 unencumbered Community Development Block Grant funding to be used for the implementation of the Mobile Home Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program; and, G) Authorize the City Manager or his designee to sign all necessary related documents for the implementation of the Substantial Amendments and the Mobile Home Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program; and, H) Authorize the City Manager or his designee to approve temporary rent reductions for eligible seniors at Ocean View Estates consistent with the Mobile Home Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve one or more recommended actions, and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: City of Huntington Beach Page 2 of 6 Printed on 10/28/2022 powered LegistarTM File #: 22-846 MEETING DATE: 11/1/2022 Background On September 6, the City Council directed staff to move forward with the formation of the MHTBRA Program, which requires the preparation of the Substantial Amendments, MHTBRA Guidelines and the amendment to the Housing Rehab Policies. Utilizing HOME and CDBG funding, the City will assist eligible very-low income seniors (62 years or older) that currently own a mobile home with TBRA assistance. This MHTBRA Program compliments the City's existing TBRA program that assists individuals and families that are homeless or at-risk of homelessness that is administered by two nonprofit partners: Families Forward and Mercy House. The existing TBRA program would continue and not be impacted by the new MHTBRA program. The MHTBRA Program will enable the City to meet the needs of participating tenant households by providing monthly rental assistance to eligible senior mobile home owners to pay for a portion of their space rent for up to twenty-four months. The MHTBRA program would ideally serve senior mobile home residents aging in place who are experiencing unanticipated rent increases that may be difficult to pay for rent and other living expenses. Based upon direction from the City Council, staff researched other similar programs and identified best practices, potential partners, funding mechanisms, and program framework that will adhere to all federal regulations, to implement the MHTBRA Program. Staff conducted extensive research of existing mobile home TBRA programs in Fullerton, Anaheim, Florida and Nevada and met with the Mobile Home Advisory Board (MHAB) on July 25 to seek input on the proposed MHTBRA Program. The MHAB recommended the City Council approve the MHTBRA (by a 7-1-1 vote) and further recommended the City Council identify a permanent funding source for the new program. With the initial available HOME funding of $391,654 and applying a citywide average space rent of $1,839 (based on an informal survey of mobile home parks), staff estimates up to 30 households can be assisted for 12 months. This number will be higher or lower depending on actual gross income and space rent of the households served. Amendment No. One (Substantial) to the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan The City currently has unencumbered federal funds in the amount of $391,654 in 2021-2022 carryover HOME funds and $381,117 in 2022-2023 CDBG funds that can be used to implement the MHTBRA Program. The City is proposing Amendment No. 1 (Substantial) to the FY 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan to include the following revisions related to implementing the MHTBRA Program (Attachment 1): • Set up and fund the MHTBRA Program for seniors with $391,654 in FY 2021-2022 HOME carryover funds (for approximately 30 households). • Decrease the CDBG Unallocated Funds for a Future Project described in the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan by $143,000 for a new total of$238,117. o Reallocate $65,000 of the 2022-2023 CDBG Unallocated Funds for a Future Project to the Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program for a total of $287,000 to assist in HQS inspections and repairs for the MHTBRA Program. City of Huntington Beach Page 3 of 6 Printed on 10/28/2022 powered Leg istarTPA File#: 22-846 MEETING DATE: 11/1/2022 o Reallocate $78,000 of the 2022-2023 CDBG Unallocated Funds for a Future Project to the Housing Services for Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program for a total of $183,000 for administering the MHTBRA Program. Amendment No. Three (Substantial) to the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan In order to implement the MHTBRA Program, the City is proposing Amendment No. 3 (Substantial) to the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan to include the following (see Attachment 2): • Add senior mobile homeowners as a priority need population in need of assistance. This will allow the MHTBRA Program to meet the goals and priorities identified in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. • Adjust the five-year performance goals as it relates to programs that are no longer funded or have received reduced/increased funding. A notice of this November 1 public hearing for both Substantial Amendments was published on September 29 in The Wave and posted on the City's website for the HUD required 30-day public review period beginning September 30 and ending on November 1. Mobile Home Tenant Base Rental Assistance Program Guidelines Staff has prepared the draft MHTBRA Program Guidelines (Attachment 3) that outline the administrative process for the program, including eligibility requirements, preferences, selection of applicants, length of assistance, and recertification process. For purposes of participating in the MHTBRA Program, an eligible senior (62 years of age or older) mobile home owner must qualify as very low-income, and the household must not receive other governmental rent subsidies. By definition, very low-income is a household that has an adjusted annual income that does not exceed 50 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI), adjusted for family size, as established by HUD. For Huntington Beach, the very low-income, two person household limit is $54,200 in 2022. In addition to the minimum qualifications, the City is proposing to implement local preferences to serve certain residents first. During its discussion of the proposed program at the September 6 meeting, the City Council favored enacting a local preference for military veterans. After reviewing best practices for veteran preferences, staff recommends defining a veteran as a person who served in the active military, naval, or air service, and who was discharged or released under honorable conditions or conditions other than dishonorable. Other preferences include 1) eligible households that are extremely low income and earn less than 30 percent of AMI; and 2) eligible households that pay over 50 percent of their gross income towards rent. Rental assistance under the MHTBRA Program would be very similar to the City's existing TBRA program. First, City staff (or a selected service provider) will review income and other necessary documentation to determine eligibility. Staff will also review the household's space lease agreement to verify the amount of rent paid on a monthly basis is reasonable and less than the fair market rent City of Huntington Beach Page 4 of 6 Printed on 10/28/2022 powereZ44 LegistarTM File #: 22-846 MEETING DATE: 11/1/2022 standard established by HUD (for 2022, the fair market rent standard in Huntington Beach is $2,324). All participating households are required to pay 30 percent of their gross monthly income for space rent, and the City then subsidizes the difference up to the fair market rent standard. If the household's rent exceeds the fair market rent standard, they must pay the amount above this limit. Per HUD- regulations, program funds may not be used to pay back-rent or mortgage expenses. Due to the limited amount of HOME funding available for the Program, selection of applicants for the MHTBRA Program will be based upon a lottery system. A one-month period will be established for senior mobile home owners to submit a brief "interest form" indicating their interest in participating in the MHTBRA Program. The interest form will be a simplified version of a TBRA application that will consist of basic information, including name, address, age, contact information, estimated gross income, number of household members, and qualification for any local preferences. Participating households will enter into a rent payment reimbursement contract with the City for assistance up to one year with a possible one year extension depending on continuing eligibility and program funding. Participating households will then provide proof of their space rent payment to the City, and the City will reimburse their monthly subsidy amount. Rental Assistance for Residents at Ocean View Estates Staff recommends that eligible seniors at the City-owned mobile home park, Ocean View Estates (OVE) not be assisted under this MHTBRA Program, so that limited program funding can serve more residents in need at privately owned parks. Staff is aware of at least one resident at OVE who needs assistance. For this resident and others who would otherwise be eligible for the MHTBRA Program and who apply for assistance within the one-month MHTBRA application period, City Council is requested to authorize staff to temporarily reduce space rent for up to two years consistent with the MHTBRA subsidy. To illustrate the potential financial impact, a senior living at OVE may earn $1,000 per month in social security benefits. Under the MHTBRA guidelines this resident would pay 30 percent of their income towards rent. With a typical rent at OVE of $1,358, in this example the resident would pay $300 and the rent would be subsidized in the amount of $1,058 per month. The total subsidy over two years for one resident would be $25,392. Amendment to the City's Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Policies and Procedures As part of the establishment of the MHTBRA Program, an amendment to the City's Housing Rehab Policies is recommended to allow for small grants for necessary minor corrections that are a result of HUD-required inspections. Once a senior's MHTBRA Program eligibility has been determined, the participating household's mobile home will need to be inspected to ensure that it meets federally established housing quality standards. Any deficiencies must be corrected before rental assistance can begin. Other cities operating similar programs have indicated that older mobile homes often require some amount of corrections to pass inspection. Examples of typical repairs include installation of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protectors, and earthquake strapping to secure water heaters. For this reason, and because the population to be served by this program may not have the financial resources to make necessary City of Huntington Beach Page 5 of 6 Printed on 10/28/2022 poweree'b'y LegistarTM File#: 22-846 MEETING DATE: 11/1/2022 repairs, staff is proposing a modification to the City's existing Housing Rehab Policies to provide small grants up to $1,200 to cover the cost of minor repairs. When the condition of a mobile home requires more extensive household repair, the homeowner will be invited to apply to the City's Emergency Grant program to receive assistance up to $15,000. to address restoration or replacement of inoperable or severely deteriorated plumbing, heating, and electrical systems, structural repair and appliance replacement. For the City Council's consideration, Attachment 4 contains the draft amendment to the City's Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Policies and Procedures. 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 and CDBG activities, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance will be required prior to execution of funding agreements and disbursement of funds. The City will complete all NEPA Compliance for the approved HOME and CDBG activities prior to the start of the programs or activities.

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 over$2.1 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.

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. 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: t. 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 3 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. 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 4 • 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 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 $642,00o 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 5o households with rental assistance.The program, run by Families Forward and Mercy House, was integral to the City's response to the COVID-1g 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 $75,00o 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 60o 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 5 • The City has a goal to assist 5,00o 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. • 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 4,00o 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 201912o 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 6 goals, policies and recommended actions for short-term (0-2 years), mid-term (3-5 years), and long-term economic decisions. 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 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: Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 10 1.

Table 4-Citizen Participation Outreach Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 21 EXPECTED RESOURCES AP-15 Expected Resources — 91.22o(c) (1,2) For Fiscal Year 2022/23, the City of Huntington Beach will receive $1,179,193 in CDBG entitlement funds, will have $57,478 $173,198 in prior year CDBG funds carried forward, and estimates receiving $1oo,000 in program income,for a total of $1,336,671 $1,452,391. 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 entitlement allocation of$676,539.The City also anticipates $166,453 $661,607 in unallocated HOME carryover, and about$50,00o in program income for a total of$89 g92 $1,388,146.The City will use HOME funds for administration of the HOME program, three tenant-based rental assistance programs, 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 $650,00o 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 $220,00o 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 22 prevention. The City is considering using will use HOME-ARP funding to provide supportive services at two homeless developments: the Cameron Lane Navigation Center and the HB Oasis Homekey transitional housing project. HOME ARP Allocation Plan. The City's HOME-ARP Allocation Plan which included an appropriation of $2,240,675 of HOME-ARP funding was approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development on August ii, 2022. 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.

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.

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 $1,179,193, the City of Huntington Beach allocated $176,879 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 ($41,708); Senior Services Care Management ($35,519);Children's Bureau($85,000);and StandUp for Kids Street Outreach($14,652).

The City has allocated $205,838 for CDBG Administration and $30,00o to the Fair Housing Foundation, for a total of $235,838, the maximum allowed. Lastly, a maximum of 1o% of the annual HOME entitlement, $67,654, 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 33 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 34 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.

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. 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 46,65o persons, 32,395, or 69.44%, of which are of low-moderate income.

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$226,000$280,000 in unallocated HOME funds that it can dedicate to a new CHDO affordable housing project in the future. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 54 AP-6o 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 55 AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities - 91.220) 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 6,86o homeless individuals in Orange County, reflecting an over 4o% 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 56 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 6o 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 57 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 3o, 2023. Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons In FY 2019120,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 201912o Annual Action Plan, and one substantial amendment to the FY 2020/21 Annual Action Plan,the City Council allocated a total of$3,489,979 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 58 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: Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 59 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 60 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 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 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 61 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 113. 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 3o units across all income levels with a focus on housing available at the very low-and low-income levels over the planning period. Program iD. 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 62 Program iF.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, Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 63 the City will take the required actions needed to supplement the shortfall 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 t00% of application fees for projects with a minimum 1o% 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 64 AP-85 Other Actions- 91.22o(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 $700,000 $183,00o in CDBG and $990,000 in HOME funds to assist 5-0 6o households with rental assistance through Families Forward and Mercy House. The two operators will offer traditional rental assistance to households in need, but new to the Annual Action Plan is a program to assist senior mobile homeowners with space rents throughout Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 65 Huntington Beach. The City also awarded $2.8 million in HOME funding to the development of a new affordable senior permanent supportive housing (PSH) project. The City partnered with a local community housing development organization, or CH DO, Jamboree Housing Corporation to develop 43 units of senior housing at 18431 Beach Boulevard. Of the 43 units, nine will be HOME-restricted.The project is currently underway. Furthermore, the City will continue its residential rehabilitation programs available to Huntington Beach homeowners.The first program offers a one-time grant of up to$io,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 $75,00o 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 $550,00o 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 66 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 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 67 • 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. 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. The City will work with nonprofit 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.

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 over$2.1 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.

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. 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: t. 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 3 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. 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 4 • 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 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 2o2o/21-2o24/25 Consolidated Plan timeframe. • Also in the area of providing decent housing, the City allocated $642,00o 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 5o households with rental assistance.The program,run by Families Forward and Mercy House, was integral to the City's response to the COVID-1g 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$1o,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 $75,00o 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 60o 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 5 • The City has a goal to assist 5,0oo persons with improved or new public facilities during the 2020/21-2o24/25 Consolidated Plan period.To date,the City has not awarded funds to public facility projects. • 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 4,00o persons. With a five-year goal of assisting z,000 persons by June 3o, 2025,the City has already well surpassed its goal. • At the end of FY 2019/2o and again during FY 2020/21, the City was awarded a special allocation of$2059,775 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 2o17,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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 6 goals, policies and recommended actions for short-term (0-2 years), mid-term (3-5 years), and long-term economic decisions.

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.

Table 4-Citizen Participation Outreach 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 $1,179,193 in CDBG entitlement funds, will have $57,478 $173,098 in prior year CDBG funds carried forward, and estimates receiving $ioo,000 in program income, for a total of$1,336,671 $1,452,391.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 entitlement allocation of$676,539.The City also anticipates $066,453 $661,607 in unallocated HOME carryover, and about $5o,000 in program income for a total of 9�$1,388,146. The City will use HOME funds for administration of the HOME program, three tenant-based rental assistance programs, 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 $650,00o 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 $220,00o 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 22 prevention. The City is considering using will use 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's HOME-ARP Allocation Plan which included an appropriation of $2,240,675 of HOME-ARP funding was approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development on August 1i, 2022. 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.

Multifamily rental rehab, New construction for ownership, TBRA Table 5-Expected Resources-Priority Table 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.

With a CDBG allocation of $1,179,193, the City of Huntington Beach allocated $076,879 for public services, representing 15%of the CDBG entitlement.This Annual Action Plan proposes to allocate the following to 2022/23 public services: Cam on ' anc Navigation Center Operations Program ($41,7o8); Senior Services Care Management ($35,519);Children's Bureau($85,000);and StandUp for Kids Street Outreach($14,652).

Consistent with the City's Citizen Participation Plan for 2o2o/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.

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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 34 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.

Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 50 AP-5o Geographic Distribution - 9t.22o(f) Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement(including areas of low-income and minority concentration)where assistance will be directed Huntington Beach is an urbanized coastal community located in northwestern Orange County, California. 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. 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 46,65o persons, 32,395, or 69.44%, of which are of low-moderate income.

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.

The City, in partnership with its local CHDO, Jamboree Housing Corporation, is underway to develop a 43-unit senior housing development at i8431 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$226,000$280,00o in unallocated HOME funds that it can dedicate to a new CHDO affordable housing project in the future. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 54 AP-6o Public Housing- 91.22o(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.

Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 55 AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities — 91.220) 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 6,86o 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 56 prior years due to the change in methodology and more thorough accounting of homeless. Among the 6,86o 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 6o 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 57 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 z019/2o,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 2o19/2o Annual Action Plan, and one substantial amendment to the FY 2020/21 Annual Action Plan,the City Council allocated a total of$3,489,979 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 58 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: Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 59 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 60 AP-75 Barriers to Affordable Housing- 91.22o(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 2o2i, 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 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 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 61 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 lB.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 3o units across all income levels with a focus on housing available at the very low-and low-income levels over the planning period. Program ID.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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 62 Program iF.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, Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 63 the City will take the required actions needed to supplement the shortfall in capacity within the required 18o 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 zE narrative are met and the development provides at least zo%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 iooZ of application fees for projects with a minimum in 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. Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 64 AP-85 Other Actions- 91.22o(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 $700,0ee $183,00o in CDBG and $990,000 in HOME funds to assist 5-e 60 households with rental assistance through Families Forward and Mercy House. The two operators will offer traditional rental assistance to households in need, but new to the Annual Action Plan is a program to assist senior mobile homeowners with space rents throughout Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 65 Huntington Beach. 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 community housing development organization, or CH DO, 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 $1o,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 $75,00o 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 $550,00o 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 66 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 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 Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 67 • 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. 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. The City will work with nonprofit 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- income residents will be vital in overcoming gaps in service delivery. The City will also utilize Huntington Beach 2022/23 Annual Action Plan 68 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, Colette'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 Continuum of Care). During FY 2022/23,the City will continue to develop these partnerships. In FY 2022/23,the City will continue to work with homeless service providers at the Huntington Beach Navigation Center to ensure it remains a successful public facility for the homeless population.

It was termed the Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community Development. According to HUD, the Consolidated Plan is designed to be a collaborative process whereby a community establishes a unified vision for housing and community development actions. It offers entitlement communities the opportunity to shape these housing and community development programs into effective, coordinated neighborhood and community development strategies. It also allows for strategic planning and citizen participation to occur in a comprehensive context, thereby reducing duplication of effort. As the lead agency for the Consolidated Plan, the City of Huntington Beach hereby follows HUD's guidelines for citizen and community involvement.Furthermore,it is responsible for overseeing citizen participation requirements that accompany the Consolidated Plan. Huntington Beach has prepared this Consolidated Plan to meet the guidelines as set forth by HUD and is broken into five sections: The Process, Needs Assessment, Market Analysis, Strategic Plan, and Annual Action Plan. Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan Needs Assessment Overview The goals of the CDBG and HOME programs are to provide decent housing, a suitable living environment for the Area's low-and moderate-income residents,and economic opportunities for low- moderate income residents.The City strives to accomplish these goals by maximizing and effectively utilizing all available funding resources to conduct housing and community development activities. These goals are further explained as follows: • Providing decent housing means helping homeless persons obtain appropriate housing and assisting those at risk of homelessness;preserving the affordable housing stock;increasing availability of permanent housing that is affordable to low and moderate-income persons without discrimination; and increasing the supply of supportive housing. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o The Process Consolidated Plan • Providing a suitable living environment entails improving the safety and livability of neighborhoods; increasing access to quality facilities and services; and reducing the isolation of income groups within an area through integration of low-income housing opportunities. • Expanding economic opportunities involves creating jobs that are accessible to low- and moderate-income persons; making down payment and closing cost assistance available for low-and moderate-income persons;promoting long term economic and social viability;and empowering low- income persons to achieve self-sufficiency. Evaluation of past performance Huntington Beach's evaluation of its past performance has been completed in a thorough Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). These documents state the objectives and outcomes identified in each year's Annual Action Plan and include an evaluation of past performance through measurable goals and objectives compared to actual performance. These documents can be found on the City's website at: https://www.huntingtonbeachca.gov/businessJeconomic-development/cdbg/ Between zoi5 and 2o19,the City of Huntington Beach has rehabilitated 4o homeowner housing units and 13 rental housing units. The City has provided tenant-based rental assistance (TBRA) to 14o households, vastly exceeding its goal of 50 households. The City has made ADA and public facility renovations to benefit over 30,00o persons and needed public services to over 3,00o persons. The City's infrastructure improvements have benefited almost 30,00o persons. City support for homeless agencies have benefited over 1,000 persons.

Most immediate needs of residents of Public Housing and Housing Choice voucher holders The most immediate needs of public housing and housing choice voucher holders is accessing affordable housing and,in some cases,preventing homelessness.These needs are complicated by the availability of accessing units that will accept vouchers, and the amount of need in the area. How do these needs compare to the housing needs of the population at large These needs are seen in a much higher rate and are more urgent than the population at large.The low- income levels of households utilizing publicly supported housing dramatically increases the likelihood of housing problems and risk of homelessness. While supportive housing services are important to most affordable housing and special needs clients, those at the lowest income in assisted housing require the most intensive aid. Discussion The rising cost of housing in the City results in a higher number of persons eligible for Housing Choice Vouchers. The availability of resources,however,is finite, leaving many eligible households unable to access much needed housing assistance. This has resulted in lengthy waiting lists and long wait times to access affordable housing options. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 53 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o NA-40 Homeless Needs Assessment— 91.205(c) Introduction: The Orange County Continuum of Care (CoC) operates in Orange County. This CoC is a collaborative of service providers. The Point-In-Time (PIT) count for the Orange County CoC has increased from 3,833 in 2014 to 6,840 in 2019. However, there are limitations to the PIT, especially when capturing unsheltered populations. These limitations include not capturing the whole unsheltered population, however, methodologies in recent years have tried to rectify these limitations when at all possible. Service providers have indicated that they are noticing a growth in the homeless population citywide. During the 2019 count, there were 349 total persons counted in Huntington Beach, with 289 unsheltered,and 6o sheltered. Orange County's 2019 Point-in-Time Summary also provides a deeper look into who exactly is homeless in Orange County.The results include findings that: • 37%of homeless people(sheltered and unsheltered)live in a household that includes a minor child,although the vast majority of homeless children are sheltered. • 36%of homeless individuals are chronically homeless. • 26%of homeless individuals have substance abuse issues. • 24%of homeless individuals are living with mental illness. • 21%of homeless individuals have a physical disability. • 5%of homeless individuals are veterans. • 2%of homeless individuals have HIV/AIDS. • 9%of homeless individuals are seniors.

City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 56 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o Describe the Nature and Extent of Unsheltered and Sheltered Homelessness. In 2019,some 2,899 persons counted were sheltered,accounting for 42.3 percent. In the unsheltered population, some 52.o percent were chronically homeless, 32.9 percent had substance abuse issues, 30.8 percent had a physical disability, and 26.5 percent had mental health issues. In the sheltered population, some 25.8 percent were chronically homeless, 26.7 percent had substance abuse issues, 15.1 percent had a physical disability,and 30.9 percent had mental health issues. Discussion: The homeless population in Orange County is increasing. As the population increases, the need for housing and service options also increases, including emergency shelters, transitional housing, and permanent supportive housing. In addition,the number of households in the area who are at risk of homelessness continue to be a high priority to keep the number of homeless households from increasing in the City. There is also a high level of need for services for homeless households including the case management,job training,transportation,substance abuse treatment,and other supportive services.

The opioid overdose death rate for Orange County is higher than the statewide rate. Seven out of every ten drug related deaths in the City involve opioids. The Orange County Health Care Agency's 2018-2023 Alcohol & Other Drug Prevention Strategic Plan provides additional information about drug and alcohol use in Orange County.3 According to the findings from the 2016 Orange County CHKS, past 3o day 1ith grade youth AOD use rates have decreased since 2008 and are consistently lower than California rates. Data findings from the DOJ in 2016 revealed that AOD offenses(drug,drunk, and DUI)account for i7.7%of all juvenile(those under 18 years of age) arrests. In comparison,AOD(drug, drunk, and DUI)accounted for 48.2%of all adult arrests in Orange County in 2016 VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Pinpointing specific numbers of domestic violence victims is difficult due to the lack of reporting and other mitigating factors. However, the California Health Interview Survey found that 23 percent of adult females in Orange County have been victims of domestic violence.4 What are the housing and supportive service needs of these populations and how are these needs determined? The 2019 Housing and Community Development Survey found that veterans, homeless persons, and persons with severe mental illness had the highest rated needs, followed by and persons with substance abuse addictions and seniors.

Housing units built between 2000 and 2009,account for 4.6 percent of households in 2010 and 4.6 percent of households in 2017. Housing units built in i939 or earlier represented 1.7 percent of households in 2017 and 1.2 percent of households in 2o1o. The age of the housing stock, with 74.i percent built prior to 1980,may suggest a higher level of need for renovation and rehabilitation.

Programs will target households that have housing problems in the City of Huntington Beach. This includes over 29,494 households in the Area,some 13,489 of which are owner households,and 16,005 of which are renter households. Huntington Beach's Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program (TBRA) provides a homeless person or family with temporary assistance in paying rent and related assistance,with the goal of self-sufficiency within six months. The City funds the program with HUD/HOME and other housing funds that are carefully budgeted. Renewal grants are not guaranteed, nor are they unlimited,so great care must be taken with program administration. TBRA currently targets homeless(extremely low)populations,as well as veterans,victims of domestic violence, and low-income families. By Substantial Amendment to the Consolidated Plan in November 2022, HB will also offer a rental assistance program to senior mobile homeowners and tenants to help subsidize space rents in the City, which have put a financial strain on households living on fixed incomes. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 7o Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o Housing Market Analysis Consolidated Plan The Affordable Housing Program funded with HOME aims to assist low- and moderate-income households. In CDBG, HB funds two housing rehabilitation programs.One is a grant program and one is a loan program for eligible LMI households. Provide an assessment of units expected to be lost from the affordable housing inventory for any reason,such as expiration of Section 8 contracts. Map MA-io.i shows the number of Section 8 contracts that are set to expire. In the range of this Consolidated Plan, there is one contract set to expire in 202o and one set to expire in 2034• Additionally,the City has a portfolio of 1,455 affordable rental units that it has developed,of which 56 are at risk of converting to market rate during this Consolidated Plan timeframe. Below is the most recent affordable housing inventory supplied from the City of Huntington Beach.As can be seen there are 4,261 total units in projects,with 1,455 affordable units and 541 units restricted to very low-income levels. #of Affordable Number of Very Low- Number of Low-Income Number of Moderate- Total Units in Project Units in Project Income Units Units Restricted by Income Units Restricted by Covenants Restricted by Covenants Covenants 4,261 1,455 541 474 353 Does the availability of housing units meet the needs of the population? As seen in the Needs Assessment section, as well as information gathered from public input,current housing does not meet the needs of the population. This is seen most markedly in the rate of cost burdens in the City. In 2017, an estimated 38.1 percent of the population was cost burdened. Renter households are more likely to be impacted by cost burdens, at 49.3 percent, and therefore cannot afford housing units that meet their needs.

The top-rated needs for housing include supportive housing for people who are homeless or disabled, first time homebuyer assistance, and rental housing for very low-income households. This was followed by rental assistance and construction of new affordable rental housing. The data for housing cost burdens by family types suggests that there is a need for housing units in a range of sizes for both large and small families. Discussion The current housing stock may not be meeting the needs of the population in Huntington Beach, especially those in lower income levels. While the rate and type of market housing production, as described in the following section, may be providing additional housing options, they may not be meeting the needs of a large proportion of households in the City.

Single-family construction usually represents most residential development in the City. Single-family building permit authorizations in Huntington Beach remained unchanged from 53 authorizations in 2017 and 53 authorizations in 2018. The real value of single-family building permits decreased from 481,359 dollars in 2017 to 402,998 dollars in 2018.This compares to an increase in permit value statewide,with values decreasing from 3O8,35o dollars in 2017 to 303,302 dollars in 2o18.Additional details are given in Table MA-15.i. The concentration of homeowner households are shown in Map MA-15.i. The highest rates of homeownership were seen in the coastal areas of the City,with some areas exceeding 88.8 percent homeownership rates. In the eastern areas of the City, homeownership rates were lower than 60.5 percent. Renter concentrations were, conversely, higher in the eastern areas of the City, primarily in areas adjacent to I-4o5. This is shown in Map MA-15.2 Median home values and median contract rents were both highest in the coastal areas of Huntington Beach. The median home value exceeded $786,7Oo in many of the areas along the coast. They were lowest, below $557,600, in the central and eastern parts of the City. A similar pattern was true for median contract rents.The highest rents exceeded$2,306. The lowest rents were below$1,558.

As demonstrated by the housing needs and cost burden sections in the Needs Assessment,there is a significant amount of the population that faces housing challenges. Low income households are particularly prone to facing cost burdens. This points to the fact that there is not sufficient housing options for all households, especially those at lower income levels. Additionally, public input comments indicated there is a significant need for affordable housing options for lower income households. How is affordability of housing likely to change considering changes to home values and/or rents? The City of Huntington Beach saw a significant increase in housing prices in recent years. If trends continue,the area will see increasing rent and home values.This would lead to additional households facing cost burdens. This indicates a need for additional affordable housing options in the City to help alleviate the number of households experiencing cost burdens. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 84 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o How do HOME rents / Fair Market Rent compare to Area Median Rent? How might this impact your strategy to produce or preserve affordable housing? The Fair Market Rent (FMR) and HOME rents may not be sufficient to meet the housing needs of households in the City of Huntington Beach.This may be especially true for larger families that require larger units. In an effort to keep housing affordable to various underserved populations such as homeless, low-income,veterans,and seniors,the City has provided much needed help in the form of tenant based rental assistance, coupled with case management to help households become more financially stable. Discussion The cost of housing in Huntington Beach continues to be out of reach for many low to moderate income households. This is reflected in the proportion of lower income households facing cost burdens and other housing problems. It is anticipated that housing cost burdens will continue to be a major factor for many households in the area and demonstrates the need for additional affordable housing options in the area. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 85 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o MA-20 Housing Market Analysis: Condition of Housing- 91.210(a) Introduction The following section will describe the condition of housing in the City of Huntington Beach. Definitions The term Standard housing condition is defined as a dwelling unit being in conformance with California State Health and Safety codes. Under that definition, substandard conditions pursuant to the State Health and Safety Code 17920.3, would involve a dwelling with any of the following conditions that would pose a danger to health or safety: (a) inadequate sanitation, (b) structural hazards, (c) nuisances,(d)wiring,(e) plumbing,(f)mechanical equipment, (g)faulty weather protection, (h)risk of fire or explosion, and other unsafe conditions.A substandard unit is generally considered suitable for rehabilitation if the cost of rehabilitation does not exceed 75%of the unit's replacement value.

The largest percent of housing units were built between 1960 and 1979. The age of these units may indicate a need for rehabilitation and renovation in the City.

This was similar to vacant for sale housing,as seen in Map MA-20.2. "Other"vacant housing is shown for 2017 in Map MA-20.3. "Other"vacant housing units are units that are not for rent or for sale, and are not otherwise available to the marketplace. This can be problematic when units are concentrated in one area as they may create a "blighting" effect. This can also offer an opportunity for the City to concentrate investments for redevelopment.

Utilizing coordinated entry, service providers match clients with appropriate services to increase access to health and social service programs that they qualify for. These efforts are paired with services provided throughout the City to create a system of wrap-around services to help households in as many ways as possible. The goal of the Coordinated Entry System' is to effectively connect individuals and families experiencing homelessness or at-risk of homelessness to appropriate services and housing interventions to end homelessness in Orange County through: • dynamic prioritization • collaborative coordination • intentional resource utilization 6 http://www.ocComm.unityservicesorglhGd/..homtiles.s/coordinated_entryy__System. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 94 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/ii/2o2o • equitable resource distribution • regional service planning area prioritization The Coordinated Entry System lead agency, Orange County, is empowered by the Continuum of Care (CoC) to manage the process of determining and updating the prioritization for all CoC funded permanent supportive housing(PSH) and CoC and ESG funded rapid rehousing(RRH) as well as any other housing resources that voluntarily participate in the Coordinated Entry System. The Coordinated Entry System is for anyone experiencing homelessness in Orange County including young adults, single adults, couples,families, veterans and seniors. If you or someone you know are experiencing homelessness, talk to your service provider or call 2-1-1 to be connected to a service provider participating in the Coordinated Entry System. List and describe services and facilities that meet the needs of homeless persons,particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth. If the services and facilities are listed on screen SP-4o Institutional Delivery Structure or screen MA-35 Special Needs Facilities and Services, describe how these facilities and services specifically address the needs of these populations. There are numerous homeless service providers in Orange County and as part of the Orange County CoC. These service providers,listed below, offer a range of services that extend beyond housing and shelter services. These include employment training,counseling,financial literacy,legal aid,childcare, and transportation services.

CA Health and Safety Code Section 1262 prohibits a mental health patient to be discharged from facilities including psychiatric, skilled nursing, and hospitals without a written aftercare plan. The Orange County Health Care Agency determines when and where clients diagnosed with serious and persistent mental illnesses are discharged from either inpatient stays or outpatient services. The City contracts with a number of inpatient providers who provide a range of levels of care. Contracts state that state law mandates regarding "anti-dumping" policies are followed to ensure that patients are not discharged to the streets or other living arrangements that are considered unsuitable for human habitation. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 96 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o City Health Care Agency determines when and to where clients diagnosed with serious and persistent mental illnesses are discharged from either inpatient stays or outpatient services.The City contracts with a number of inpatient providers and contracts with them to follow the mandates of state laws in regard to "anti-dumping" policies. Patients leaving inpatient settings are assessed for level and type of residential setting. They might be placed in Adult Residential Facilities or Residential Facilities for the Elderly if over age 6o for care and supervision.Some are placed in more enhanced licensed facilities such as contracted Residential Rehabilitation beds, or programs(STEPS)which include placement in either a"basic"ARF or a Res. Rehab.Others might be discharged back to a former residence or family home.Others are linked to clinics where they are placed in supported short-term housing programs or room and boards or other independent living arrangements,for those capable of living on their own and who are funded or working. Patients determined to be able to live independently, are assisted into S+C or MHSA units as they become available. A number of agencies work together in various roles to ensure housing for the mentally ill in Orange County. Each plays a different but coordinating role.The Continuum of Care,OC Community Services, Orange County Health Care Agency, Mercy House, Friendship Shelter, all of the inpatient programs serving City of Huntington Beach clients, Community Care Licensing, the California Hispanic Commission on Drugs and Alcohol,and the Illumination Foundation are among the most active.

This was followed by density or other zoning requirements and the permitting process. Additionally, as part of the City's 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 2013-2021 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.

City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan iii Draft Report for Public Review:03/11/2020 MA-5o Needs and Market Analysis Discussion Are there areas where households with multiple housing problems are concentrated? (include a definition of"concentration") As seen in Map MA-50.i,housing problems tend to be concentrated in the eastern portion of the City, closer to 1-405.These areas have housing problems at a rate between 49.i and 68.8 percent,compared to areas with rates below 30.8 percent in other parts of the City. In this map, the definition of "concentration" is any area that sees a disproportionate share of housing problems, counted as any area that experiences housing problems at a rate at least ten (10) percentage higher than the area average. The concentrations of housing problems by race are shown in Maps MA-50.2 through MA-50.4. These maps show the concentration of housing problems for Asian, Black,and Hispanic households. Are there any areas in the jurisdiction where racial or ethnic minorities or low-income families are concentrated?(include a definition of"concentration") The following maps show the distribution of the population by race and ethnicity. These maps will be used to describe any areas with a disproportionate share of any one racial or ethnic group. A disproportionate share is defined as having at least ten percentage points higher than the jurisdiction average. For example,if American Indian households account for i.0 percent of the total population, there would be a disproportionate share if one area saw a rate of 11.0 percent or more. As seen in Map MA-5o.5,the Asian population,which accounted for 1i.9 percent of Huntington Beach population in 2017,saw a disproportionate share of the population in three Census tracts in northern and eastern parts of the City. Hispanic households are shown in Map MA-5o.6 for 2017. There were several areas with a disproportionate share of Hispanic households. These areas tended to be in eastern parts of Huntington Beach and saw Hispanic population that exceeded 30.2 percent, compared to the 19.3 percent for the citywide average. Poverty in 2017 is shown in Map MA-50.7. There were three Census tracts that had a disproportionate share of poverty,with two tracts with poverty rates over 21.3 percent, compared to the city average of 8.9 percent. What are the characteristics of the market in these areas/neighborhoods? The housing markets in these area tended to have a higher proportion of renter households,as shown in Map MA-15.2. In addition, median home values and median contract rents tended to be lower in these areas than in other areas in the City. This is shown in Maps MA-15.3 and MA-15.4. Are there any community assets in these areas/neighborhoods? City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 112 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o These areas are adjacent to a variety of amenities in these areas, including access to city schools and parks,community centers,libraries,as well as grocery stores,and service providers. Are there other strategic opportunities in any of these areas? Areas with high concentrations of low income and poverty level households may present an opportunity for investment through services and public facility funding. The City could also promote economic development in these areas or fund housing development or rehabilitation.

The City has retained CTC, Energy and Technology to develop a broadband strategic plan. The consultant is currently conducting a market analysis in order to develop a high-level strategic plan that explores options for maximizing the economic development benefits of the City's existing broadband infrastructure, integrating potential future broadband projects with the City's broader economic development planning,and meeting the broadband connectivity needs of business in the City." Describe the need for increased competition by having more than one broadband Internet service provider serve the jurisdiction. While there are a number of broadband service providers in the City of Huntington Beach,there is a continued need for competition to promote affordability and access, as well as choice, in the community. According to the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation, competition is a crucial component of broadband policy in that it pressures providers to be efficient and innovative.12 "https//www.huntingtonbeachca.gov/announcements/announcement.cfm?id=95g https:l/itif.org/publicatio ns/2o19/09/03/policymakers-guide-broadband-com petitio n City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 124 Draft Report for Public Review:03/11/2o2o MA-65 Hazard Mitigation - 91.21o(a)(5), 91.31o(a)(3) Describe the jurisdiction's increased natural hazard risks associated with climate change. There are several increased risks in Huntington Beach due to climate change. These are discussed in the City's Local Hazard Mitigation Plan and outlined below:13 Coastal erosion: Coastal erosion is caused primarily by tides and by wave action from storms.While tides are not affected by climate change, some studies suggest that climate change is expected to cause a io to 20 percent increase in intensity of the severe storms that affect Southern California, as discussed in greater detail in the Flood section (Oskin 2014b). This means that the significant wave events that already cause substantial erosion in Huntington Beach may become more intense,causing greater loss of beaches and coastal bluffs during these events.Sea level rise,which is caused by climate change,may exacerbate the issue.As the surface of the ocean becomes higher,wave and tidal action will be able to reach farther onto land than they currently can.As a result,wave and tide events that currently do not reach far enough to cause any erosion may be able to do so in the future,and wave and tide events that already cause erosion will be able to affect areas farther from the water line. Sea level rise: Sea level rise is a direct consequence of climate change, and would likely not exist to any substantial degree if climate change was not occurring. Climate change does not create any particular considerations for sea level rise,as the hazard itself is a climate change consideration. Tsunamis: The displacement events that cause tsunamis are geologic in nature and unaffected by climate change to any known degree. However, as sea level rise increases the average height of the ocean, this will allow tsunami waves to reach farther inland. Even though climate change is not expected to affect the severity of tsunamis,sea level rise is likely to create the potential for tsunamis to cause greater damage. Describe the vulnerability to these risks of housing occupied by low-and moderate-income households based on an analysis of data,findings,and methods. Low income households are likely to be impacted by climate change in Huntington Beach due to a lack of resources. The Huntington Beach Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (2017) noted that this can include droughts,which can include economic hardships for low-income households due to increased water rates. Lower income households may also be disproportionately impacted by earthquake events and sea level rise. 9 https://www.huntingtonbeachca.gov/announcements/attachments/Huntington_Beach_public_review_draft_LHMP.pdf City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 125 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o Strategic Plan SP-o5 Overview The Needs Assessment and Market Analysis,which has been guided by the Housing and Community development Survey and public input, identified seven priority needs.These are described below. • 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. Preserve Existing and Create New Affordable Housing as well as Sustain and Strengthen Neighborhoods are two goals to be implemented under this category of priority need. • 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. • Special Needs Populations:There are a number of special needs populations in the City that need continued services and support. These include,but aren't limited to persons with severe mental illness, veterans, persons with substance abuse addictions, seniors, and illiterate persons. • 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 family services. • 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. • 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. • 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. These Priority Needs are addressed with the following Goals: Sustain and Strengthen Neighborhoods City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 126 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o Using CDBG funds,the City will sustain and strengthen neighborhoods by eliminating unsafe conditions and blight while improving the quality of life for residents within the community. Preserve Existing and Create New Affordable Housing To the extent possible, based upon the availability of funds and a project's viability, HOME funds will be used to assist affordable housing developers in the acquisition, construction and/or rehabilitation of low-income rental and/or owner housing units,and in the provision of Tenant-Based Rental Assistance (TBRA). Tenant-based rental assistance is needed for low- income, homeless, veteran, victims of domestic violence, the elderly, and for mobile homeowners experiencing rising space rents. Support Efforts to Address Homelessness Using CDBG public service funds,the City will provide assistance to homeless service providers. Support Agencies that Assist Special Needs Populations Using CDBG public service funds, the City will provide assistance to various social service agencies that provide community and public services to special needs households in the City. Provide Needed Community Services to LMI Persons Using CDBG public service funds, the City will provide assistance to various social service agencies for programs for youth,anti-crime,and general public services. Preserve Existing and Create New Community and Public Facilities Using CDBG funds, the City will provide financial assistance to improve public facilities and parks. Provide Needed Infrastructure Improvements Using CDBG funds,the City will provide financial assistance to improve public infrastructure. Support Community Development Programs The City will conduct the following administration/planning activities: (1) General Administration of CDBG and HOME Program, including preparation of budget, applications, certifications and agreements, (2) Coordination of CDBG-funded capital improvement projects, (3) Coordination of Public Service Subrecipients, (4) Coordination of HOME-funded housing projects,(5)Monitoring of CDBG and HOME projects/programs to ensure compliance with federal regulations,(6) Preparation of Annual Action Plan,(7) Preparation of the CAPER, and(8) Fair Housing Foundation counseling, education and enforcement(CDBG funded). Up City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 127 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o to 2o%of the annual CDBG entitlement and up to io%of the HOME entitlement is allowed for administration activities. SP-io Geographic Priorities- 91.215 (a)(1) General Allocation Priorities Huntington Beach is an urbanized coastal community located in northwestern Orange County, California. 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, as seen in Map SP-io.i. 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"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.

Rising rents and low vacancies are impacting the availability for low and moderate-income households able to be assisted with limited resources to afford rents. Seniors living in mobile home parks have also seen an exuberant increase in both mobile home and space rents in recent years. There is a need to assist seniors on fixed incomes with the cost of living in mobile home parks.

Rising rents and low vacancies are impacting the availability for low and moderate-income households able to be assisted with limited resources to afford rents. Seniors living in mobile home parks have also seen an exuberant increase in both mobile home and space rents in recent years. There is a need to assist seniors on fixed incomes with the cost of living in mobile home parks. New Unit The production of new housing units is influenced by several market conditions, Production including the cost of land,the cost of construction, and prevailing interest rates. While rates are currently at historic lows,the cost of land and labor act as major barriers to developing any type of new construction in the City with the limited amount of funds available. Rehabilitation Rehabilitation activities can be influenced by the cost of materials and labor. Home rehabilitation can provide an opportunity for households to maintain safe, decent, affordable housing without the cost of acquisition or production. This may help the City to maintain the availability of units that are affordable to a variety of households. Acquisition, While the cost of housing continues to rise within the City,the cost of acquisition including is out of reach in many instances. Typically, the City's rehabilitation resources preservation support combined acquisition and rehabilitation projects in partnership with non- profits that leverage City dollars with other funding sources. The cost of land, labor and materials affects the total development costs and the number of units that the City can support in any given year. Another critical issue that influences the use of funds to acquire properties for the creation or preservation of affordable units is the lack of a permanent source of financing.The elimination of the Huntington Beach Redevelopment Agency, coupled with continued reductions in the HOME entitlement, makes addressing priority housing needs more challenging. Table 48—Influence of Market Conditions City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 138 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/ii/2o2o SP-35 Anticipated Resources- 91.215(a)(4), 91•22o(c) (1,2) Introduction The table that follows depicts the CDBG and HOME resources that the City of Huntington Beach is expected to have during the 2020 Program Year.

Local private and nonfederal 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. 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 zo%of these funds to develop low-and moderate-income housing.The City's match surplus is approximately$2,794,025 as of September 3o,2018. 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 3o,2021.The City received this waiver on April 24,2020. 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 is in the process of acquiring land that could be used to develop an emergency homeless shelter to help meet the needs of the ever-growing homeless population,a priority need as described in the 202o/21-2024/25 Consolidated Plan.

Strong City and City agencies anchor the federal programs and housing and community development programs the City is able to support. In the community, there is a large network of experienced non-profit organizations that deliver a full range of services to residents. The Office of Business Development Community Enhancement Division maintains direct communication with other City departments when revising or updating housing policies, issues and services. Through daily contact and inter-working relations, City staff implements programs and services and tracks issues of concern. This process allows easy access to data on building activity, City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 141 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o housing conditions, code requirements, zoning, growth issues, employment trends, and other demographic data. In addition to the City's internal network, through its federal entitlement and other resources, Huntington Beach interacts with various non-profit agencies and public service groups in the delivery of programs. These agencies are assisted by City staff in planning programs and projects, ensuring activity eligibility and costs,complying with federal regulations and requirements,and monitoring the timely expenditure of annually allocated program funds.The City requires agencies to submit quarterly and annual reports to meet federal requirements, and periodically conducts sub-recipient audits and on-site reviews. Furthermore, the City of Huntington Beach performs project monitoring of all rent restricted affordable units assisted with HOME,CDBG,and former Redevelopment Agency housing funds. • Annually, audits are performed to ensure compliance with regulatory agreements and affordability covenants;and • Periodic,on-site visits are conducted,which will include a property inspection and an in-depth review of the rent restricted affordable unit files assisted with HOME, CDBG, and the former Redevelopment Agency.As part of the Consolidated Plan process,the City received input from numerous housing and public service agencies through a combination of consultation workshops, interviews and a Needs Assessment Survey. These agencies provided valuable input into the identification of needs and gaps in service,and in development of the City's five year Strategic Plan.

Describe the strengths and gaps of the service delivery system for special needs population and persons experiencing homelessness, including, but not limited to, the services listed above City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 144 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o Coordination between public agencies providing housing resources, assisted housing providers, private and governmental health,mental health and human service agencies are critical to the delivery of viable products/services. In an effort to enhance coordination,the City is a member of the Orange County Commission to End Homelessness. The primary gap in Huntington Beach's service delivery system is a function of the significant cuts in public and private funding and associated reductions in service. A lack of available funding, coupled with growing demand for services, leaves persons underserved. These gaps can only be filled with additional funding sources while current providers cannot meet all the current need. Provide a summary of the strategy for overcoming gaps in the institutional structure and service delivery system for carrying out a strategy to address priority needs 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 this Consolidated Plan. 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.

City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 153 Substantial Amendment No.Three November 2022 Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan SP-55 Barriers to affordable housing- 91.215(h) Barriers to Affordable Housing The 2019 Housing and Community Development Survey found that the most highly recognized barriers to the development of affordable housing include the cost of land or lot,lack of available land,the Not In My Back Yard (NIMBY)Mentality. This was followed by density or other zoning requirements and the permitting process. Table SP.55.1 Providing Decent and Affordable Housing Huntington Beach Housing and Community Development Survey Question Response Do any of the following act as barriers to the development or preservation of affordable housing in your community: Cost of land or lot 205 Lack of available land 183 Not In My Back Yard(NIMBY)mentality 155 Density or other zoning requirements 114 y Permitting process 107 Lack of affordable housing development 102 policies Permitting fees 100 Cost of labor 91 Construction fees 83 Cost of materials 81 Lack of other infrastructure 79 Impact fees 61 Lot size 54 Building codes 46 Lack of water system 43 Lack of sewer system 40 ADA codes 36 Lack of qualified contractors or builders 18 Strategy to Remove or Ameliorate the Barriers to Affordable Housing 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 Housing Element update, the City must assess and to the extent feasible, mitigate, its governmental constraints to housing for lower and moderate-income City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 154 Substantial Amendment No.Three November 2022 Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 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 2013-2021 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:Acquire,rehabilitate,and establish affordability covenants on 8o rental units. Program 7. Residential and Mixed-Use Sites Inventory Objective: Maintain current inventory of vacant and underutilized development sites and provide to developers along with information on incentives.

City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 155 Substantial Amendment No.Three November 2022 Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan SP-6o Homelessness Strategy— 91.215(d) Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs The City of Huntington Beach is committed to addressing homelessness. In March 2014, the City Council conducted a study session on homelessness in the community,including a presentation by the Executive Director of the Orange County Commission to End Homelessness and the City's Police Chief. Subsequently,the City contracted with City Net,a collaborative organization,to conduct research on the scope and scale of the homeless issues in Huntington Beach, provide an asset map of homeless services and resources, and deliver recommendations about how to strategically leverage existing assets and resources in the community to address the problem. City Net's findings and recommendations are summarized below: 1. The City possesses an abundance of non-profit organizations, faith congregations, local businesses, and community groups that are eager for collaborative solutions to ending homelessness in Huntington Beach. 2. The groups listed above are decentralized both structurally and geographically. 3. The City should invest in coordinating these resources without aggregating them or investing in heavy infrastructure. 4. A proactive connection should be established between the non-profit and faith communities to City safety personnel and other first responders. 5. The City should invest in a multi-sector collective impact collaborative which would meet regularly to achieve goals over the course of 12-months. The City's Police Department recently engaged the services of the Coast to Coast Foundation, a non- profit Police Officer Liaison Program (POLP)designed to eliminate resource barriers and support law enforcement homelessness teams. Coast to Coast partners with police departments throughout Orange County, providing a model that balances enforcement with outreach. Resources include: Homeless Liaison Officer (HLO) kits for daily patrol, 24/7 locker locations kits, homeless relocation, trained outreach team, community campaign/education and empowerment in support of law enforcement. The City's Police Department and Coast to Coast have created a volunteer program specifically designed to the needs of Huntington Beach.The volunteers engage in monthly outreach efforts to the homeless and have experienced great success. Addressing the emergency and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City has and will continue to address the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless and homeless families through support of homeless programs such as the Huntington Beach Youth Emergency Shelter, Interval House, Families Forward, and Mercy House. Through the City's Homeless Task Force,the City will also support the provision of emergency housing and services by Beach Cities Interfaith Services and the local faith-based community. The City has also created a Homeless Outreach Coordinator and Homeless Case Manager position who are responsible for City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 156 Substantial Amendment No.Three November 2022 Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan creating relationships with the homeless and to provide services with an eye toward bringing their homelessness to an end. In FY 2o1912o, the City Council approved purchase of property located at 17631 Cameron Lane using non-federal funds.Via a substantial amendment to the FY 201912o Annual Action Plan,the City Council w snsider approved an allocation of$1.5 over$3.5 million of federal CDBG and CARES Act funds to help offset costs associated operating the homeless shelter facility at the project site.The need for such a facility has increased in recent months due to the COVID-19 pandemic and Orange County's Safer at Home Order. The Navigation Center will bring homeless service providers 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. 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 2020/21,the City will continue its dedication to assisting families in Huntington Beach with much needed rental assistance.In May 2020,a NOFA/RFP was solicited to qualified agencies with experience with administering HOME-funded TBRA programs, and a selection is expected in June 2020.With an investment of $900,00o towards this effort, the City anticipates that approximately 6o households could be served over a two-year period. Households that qualify for assistance include those that are of low and moderate income,as well as households who are currently housed,but are at risk of losing their housing due to COVID-19.Also, as part of this Substantial Amendment,the City will offer rental assistance to senior owners of mobile homes. Assistance will help to offset space rents that have increased causing financial hardship to seniors living on fixed incomes. Help low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families who are likely to become homeless after being discharged from a publicly funded institution or system of care, or who are receiving assistance from public and private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment,education or youth needs City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 157 Substantial Amendment No.Three November 2022 Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 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 with the Orange County Housing Authority and the Continuum of Care Homeless Issues Task Force. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 158 Substantial Amendment No.Three November 2022 Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan SP-65 Lead based paint Hazards— 91.215(i) Actions to address LBP hazards and increase access to housing without LBP 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. How are the actions listed above related to the extent of lead poisoning and hazards? According to 2017 ACS data, an estimated 9.1 percent of housing units in the City are at risk of lead- based paint and have children aged 6 or under in those units. The efforts listed above are based on the City's on-going efforts to keep households safe from lead-based paint hazards. These efforts are focused on education and response efforts to systematically address lead-based paint issues citywide. How are the actions listed above integrated into housing policies and procedures? 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.

It was termed the Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community Development. According to HUD, the Consolidated Plan is designed to be a collaborative process whereby a community establishes a unified vision for housing and community development actions. It offers entitlement communities the opportunity to shape these housing and community development programs into effective, coordinated neighborhood and community development strategies. It also allows for strategic planning and citizen participation to occur in a comprehensive context, thereby reducing duplication of effort. As the lead agency for the Consolidated Plan,the City of Huntington Beach hereby follows HUD's guidelines for citizen and community involvement.Furthermore,it is responsible for overseeing citizen participation requirements that accompany the Consolidated Plan. Huntington Beach has prepared this Consolidated Plan to meet the guidelines as set forth by HUD and is broken into five sections: The Process, Needs Assessment, Market Analysis, Strategic Plan, and Annual Action Plan.

Also discuss the needs of formerly homeless families and individuals who are receiving rapid re-housing assistance and are nearing the termination of that assistance Households most likely to be at risk of becoming unsheltered are those with extremely low incomes that are severely cost-burdened.There are 5,83o households in Huntington Beach that are below 3o percent HAM Fl with severe cost burdens. These 1,94o homeowner households and 3,890 renter households are the most at-risk of becoming homeless. If a jurisdiction provides estimates of the at-risk population(s), it should also include a description of the operational definition of the at-risk group and the methodology used to generate the estimates: Not applicable. Specify particular housing characteristics that have been linked with instability and an increased risk of homelessness According to the National Alliance to End Homelessness,there are various factors that contribute to an increased risk of homelessness.These housing characteristics include households that are doubled up, or living with friends or family, persons recently released from prison, and young adults out of foster care. Economic factors include households with severe cost burden and households facing unemployment. As described here and' in the following sections, there are a large number of households facing cost burdens and other housing problems that create instability and increase their risk of homelessness.

Introduction Households experiencing cost burdens spend above 3o percent of their income on housing cost.Cost Burdened households may experience finical strain due to the high proportion on income spent on housing cost. Of the four HUD defined housing problems, cost burden is the most prevalent and the most detrimental to the long term stability of a households. Households spending above 5o percent of their income on housing cost are severely cost burdened and may be a few missed paychecks away from experiencing homelessness. It is an important metric to define the immediate need for affordable housing goals.

City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 47 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/ii/2o2o NA-3o Disproportionately Greater Need: Discussion - 91.2o5(b)(2) Are there any Income categories in which a racial or ethnic group has disproportionately greater need than the needs of that income category as a whole? The overall rate of housing problems is 39.i percent in the City of Huntington Beach. A disproportionate share of housing problems exists if any one racial or ethnic group experiences housing problems at a rate at least ten (1o) percentage points higher than the average. In this case, at a rate of at least 49.1 percent. Pacific Islander and Hispanic households face housing problems at a disproportionate rate. Pacific Islander households face housing problems at a rate of 69.3 percent, however only accounted for o.4 percent of the population in 2017. Hispanic households face housing problems at a rate of 50.7 percent. If they have needs not identified above,what are those needs? This data may indicate a need for rental assistance to help reduce cost burdens. Are any of those racial or ethnic groups located in specific areas or neighborhoods in your community? There are several areas in the City where Hispanic households are concentrated. Hispanic households had several areas with a disproportionate share of Hispanic households. These areas tended to be in eastern parts of Huntington Beach and saw Hispanic population that exceeded 30.2 percent, compared to the 19.3 percent for the citywide average.

Most immediate needs of residents of Public Housing and Housing Choice voucher holders The most immediate needs of public housing and housing choice voucher holders is accessing affordable housing and,in some cases,preventing homelessness.These needs are complicated by the availability of accessing units that will accept vouchers,and the amount of need in the area. How do these needs compare to the housing needs of the population at large These needs are seen in a much higher rate and are more urgent than the population at large.The low- income levels of households utilizing publicly supported housing dramatically increases the likelihood of housing problems and risk of homelessness. While supportive housing services are important to most affordable housing and special needs clients, those at the lowest income in assisted housing require the most intensive aid. Discussion The rising cost of housing in the City results in a higher number of persons eligible for Housing Choice Vouchers. The availability of resources, however, is finite, leaving many eligible households unable to access much needed housing assistance. This has resulted in lengthy waiting lists and long wait times to access affordable housing options. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 53 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o20 NA-4o Homeless Needs Assessment- g1.2o5(c) Introduction: The Orange County Continuum of Care (CoC) operates in Orange County. This CoC is a collaborative of service providers. The Point-In-Time (PIT) count for the Orange County CoC has increased from 3,833 in 2014 to 6,840 in 2019. However, there are limitations to the PIT, especially when capturing unsheltered populations. These limitations include not capturing the whole unsheltered population, however, methodologies in recent years have tried to rectify these limitations when at all possible. Service providers have indicated that they are noticing a growth in the homeless population citywide. During the 2019 count, there were 349 total persons counted in Huntington Beach, with 289 unsheltered,and 6o sheltered. Orange County's 2019 Point-in-Time Summary also provides a deeper look into who exactly is homeless in Orange County.The results include findings that: • 37%of homeless people(sheltered and unsheltered)live in a household that includes a minor child,although the vast majority of homeless children are sheltered. • 36%of homeless individuals are chronically homeless. • 26%of homeless individuals have substance abuse issues. • 24%of homeless individuals are living with mental illness. • 21%of homeless individuals have a physical disability. • 5%of homeless individuals are veterans. • 2%of homeless individuals have HIV/AIDS. • 9%of homeless individuals are seniors.

City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 56 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o Describe the Nature and Extent of Unsheltered and Sheltered Homelessness. In 2019,some 2,899 persons counted were sheltered,accounting for 42.3 percent. In the unsheltered population, some 52.o percent were chronically homeless, 32.9 percent had substance abuse issues, 30.8 percent had a physical disability, and 26.5 percent had mental health issues. In the sheltered population, some 25.8 percent were chronically homeless, 26.7 percent had substance abuse issues, 15.1 percent had a physical disability,and 30.9 percent had mental health issues. Discussion: The homeless population in Orange County is increasing. As the population increases, the need for housing and service options also increases, including emergency shelters, transitional housing, and permanent supportive housing. In addition,the number of households in the area who are at risk of homelessness continue to be a high priority to keep the number of homeless households from increasing in the City. There is also a high level of need for services for homeless households including the case management,job training,transportation,substance abuse treatment,and other supportive services.

City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 66 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/ii/2o2o Housing Market Analysis Consolidated Plan Housing Market Analysis MA-05 Overview Housing Market Analysis Overview: Between 2010 and 2017, the number of housing units in Huntington Beach increased by 2.4 percent. The housing market has seen an increase in housing production in recent years, particularly in multifamily units. Meanwhile, housing costs have continued to rise. The proportion of vacant units has remained relatively steady since 2010 but has seen an increase in the proportion of these units for seasonal,recreational,or occasional use. MA-10 Number of Housing Units — 91.210(a)&(b)(2) Introduction Table MA-io.i shows housing units by type in 2010 and 2017.In 2010,there were 79,166 housing units, compared with 81,128 in 2017. Single-family units continues to account for over 6o percent of the Huntington Beach housing stock,compared to roughly 36 percent of multi-family units.

Programs will target households that have housing problems in the City of Huntington Beach. This includes over 29,494 households in the Area,some 13,489 of which are owner households,and 16,005 of which are renter households. Huntington Beach's Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program (TBRA) provides a homeless person or family with temporary assistance in paying rent and related assistance,with the goal of self-sufficiency within six months. The City funds the program with HUD/HOME and other housing funds that are carefully budgeted. Renewal grants are not guaranteed,nor are they unlimited,so great care must be taken with program administration. TBRA currently targets homeless(extremely low)populations,as well as veterans,victims of domestic violence,and low-income families. By Substantial Amendment to the Consolidated Plan in November 2022, HB will also offer a rental assistance program to senior mobile homeowners and tenants to help subsidize space rents in the City, which have put a financial strain on households living on fixed incomes. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 70 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2ozo Housing Market Analysis Consolidated Plan The Affordable Housing Program funded with HOME aims to assist low- and moderate-income households. In CDBG, HB funds two housing rehabilitation programs.One is a grant program and one is a loan program for eligible LMI households. Provide an assessment of units expected to be lost from the affordable housing inventory for any reason,such as expiration of Section 8 contracts. Map MA-1o.1 shows the number of Section 8 contracts that are set to expire. In the range of this Consolidated Plan, there is one contract set to expire in 202o and one set to expire in 2034. Additionally,the City has a portfolio of 1,455 affordable rental units that it has developed,of which 56 are at risk of converting to market rate during this Consolidated Plan timeframe. Below is the most recent affordable housing inventory supplied from the City of Huntington Beach.As can be seen there are 4,261 total units in projects,with 1,455 affordable units and 541 units restricted to very low-income levels. #of Affordable Number of Very Low- Number of Low-Income Number of Moderate- Total Units in Project Units in Project Income Units Units Restricted by Income Units Restricted by Covenants Restricted by Covenants Covenants 4,261 1,455 541 474 353 Does the availability of housing units meet the needs of the population? As seen in the Needs Assessment section, as well as information gathered from public input, current housing does not meet the needs of the population. This is seen most markedly in the rate of cost burdens in the City. In 2017,an estimated 38.1 percent of the population was cost burdened. Renter households are more likely to be impacted by cost burdens, at 49.3 percent, and therefore cannot afford housing units that meet their needs.

The top-rated needs for housing include supportive housing for people who are homeless or disabled, first time homebuyer assistance, and rental housing for very low-income households. This was followed by rental assistance and construction of new affordable rental housing. The data for housing cost burdens by family types suggests that there is a need for housing units in a range of sizes for both large and small families. Discussion The current housing stock may not be meeting the needs of the population in Huntington Beach, especially those in lower income levels. While the rate and type of market housing production, as described in the following section, may be providing additional housing options, they may not be meeting the needs of a large proportion of households in the City.

Single-family construction usually represents most residential development in the City. Single-family building permit authorizations in Huntington Beach remained unchanged from 53 authorizations in 2017 and 53 authorizations in 20.18. The real value of single-family building permits decreased from48.,359 dollars in 2017 to 402,998 dollars in 20i8. This compares to an increase in permit value statewide,with values decreasing from 308,35o dollars in 2017 to 303,3o2 dollars in 2018.Additional details are given in Table MA-15.i. The concentration of homeowner households are shown in. Map MA-15.1. The highest rates of homeownership were seen in the coastal areas of the City, with some areas exceeding 88.8 percent homeownership rates. In the eastern areas of the City, homeownership rates were lower than 60.5 percent. Renter concentrations were, conversely,higher in the eastern areas of the City, primarily in areas adjacent to 1-405. This is shown in Map MA-15.2 Median home values and median contract rents were both highest in the coastal areas of Huntington Beach.

As demonstrated by the housing needs and cost burden sections in the Needs Assessment,there is a significant amount of the population that```"faces housing challenges. Low income households are particularly prone to facing cost burdens. This points to the fact that there is not sufficient housing options for all households, especially those at lower income levels. Additionally, public input comments indicated there is a significant need for affordable housing options for lower income households. How is affordability,of housing likely to change considering changes to home values and/or rents? The City of Huntington Beach saw a significant increase in housing prices in recent years. If trends continue,the area will see increasing rent and home values.This would lead to additional households facing cost burdens. This indicates a need for additional affordable housing options in the City to help alleviate the number of households experiencing cost burdens. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 84 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o How do HOME rents / Fair Market Rent compare to Area Median Rent? How might this impact your strategy to produce or preserve affordable housing? The Fair Market Rent (FMR) and HOME rents may not be sufficient to meet the housing needs of households in the City of Huntington Beach.This may be especially true for larger families that require larger units. In an effort to keep housing affordable to various underserved populations such as homeless, low-income,veterans, and seniors,the City has provided much needed help in the form of tenant based rental assistance, coupled with case management to help households become more financially stable. Discussion The cost of housing in Huntington Beach continues to be out of reach for many low to moderate income households. This is reflected in the proportion of lower income households facing cost burdens and other housing problems. It is anticipated that housing cost burdens will continue to be a major factor for many households in the area and demonstrates the need for additional affordable housing options in the area. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 85 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o MA-20 Housing Market Analysis: Condition of Housing- 91.21o(a) Introduction The following section will describe the condition of housing in the City of Huntington Beach. Definitions The term Standard housing condition is defined as a dwelling unit being in conformance with California State Health and Safety codes. Under that definition, substandard conditions pursuant to the State Health and Safety Code 17920.3, would involve a dwelling with any of the following conditions that would pose a danger to health or safety: (a) inadequate sanitation, (b) structural hazards, (c) nuisances,(d)wiring, (e)plumbing, (f) mechanical equipment, (g)faulty weather protection,(h)risk of fire or explosion, and other unsafe conditions.A substandard unit is generally considered suitable for rehabilitation if the cost of rehabilitation does not exceed 75%of the unit's replacement value.

Housing units built in i939 or earlier represented 1.7 percent of households in 2017 City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 86 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o and 1.2 percent of households in 2010. The largest percent of housing units were built between 1960 and 1979. The age of these units may indicate a need for rehabilitation and renovation in the City.

This was similar to vacant for sale housing, as seen in Map MA-20.2. "Other"vacant housing is shown for 2017 in Map MA-20.3. "Other"vacant housing units are units that are not for rent or for sale, and are not otherwise available to the marketplace. This can be problematic when units are concentrated in one area as they may create a "blighting" effect. This can also offer an opportunity for the City to concentrate investments for redevelopment.

City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan iii Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o MA-5o Needs and Market Analysis Discussion Are there areas where households with multiple housing problems are concentrated? (include a definition of"concentration") As seen in Map MA-50.1,housing problems tend to be concentrated in the eastern portion of the City, closer to I-4o5.These areas have housing problems at a rate between 49.i and 68.8 percent,compared to areas with rates below 30.8 percent in other parts of the City. In this map, the definition of "concentration" is any area that sees a disproportionate share of housing problems, counted as any area that experiences housing problems at a rate at least ten (1o) percentage higher than the area average. The concentrations of housing problems by race are shown in Maps MA-50.2 through MA-50.4. These maps show the concentration of housing problems for Asian,Black,and Hispanic households. Are there any areas in the jurisdiction where racial or ethnic minorities or low-income families are concentrated?(include a definition.of"concentration") The following maps show the distribution of the population by race and ethnicity. These maps will be used to describe any areas with a disproportionate share of any one racial or ethnic group. A disproportionate share is defined as having at least ten percentage points higher than the jurisdiction average. For example, if American Indian households account for 1.0 percent of the total population, there would be a disproportionate share if one area saw a rate of ii.0 percent or more. As seen in Map MA-50.5,the Asian population,which accounted for 1i.9 percent of Huntington Beach population in 2017,saw a disproportionate share of the population in three Census tracts in northern and eastern parts of the City. Hispanic households are shown in Map MA-50.6 for 2017. There were several areas with a disproportionate share of Hispanic households. These areas tended to be in eastern parts of Huntington Beach and saw Hispanic population that exceeded 30.2 percent, compared to the i9.3 percent for the citywide average. Poverty in 2017 is shown in Map MA-50.7. There were three Census tracts that had a disproportionate share of poverty,with two tracts with poverty rates over 2i.3 percent, compared to the city average of 8.9 percent. What are the characteristics of the market in these areas/neighborhoods? The housing markets in these area tended to have a higher proportion of renter households,as shown in Map MA-i5.2. In addition, median home values and median contract rents tended to be lower in these areas than in other areas in the City. This is shown in Maps MA-15.3 and MA-i5.4. Are there any community assets in these areas/neighborhoods? City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 112 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o These areas are adjacent to a variety of amenities in these areas, including access to city schools and parks,community centers,libraries,as well as grocery stores,and service providers. Are there other strategic opportunities in any of these areas? Areas with high concentrations of low income and poverty level households may present an opportunity for investment through services and public facility funding. The City could also promote economic development in these areas or fund housing development or rehabilitation.

"https://www.huntingtonbeachca.gov/announcements/announcement.cfm?id=959 https://itif.org/publications/zo19/o9/o3/policymakers-guide-broadband-competition City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 124 Draft Report for Public Review:o3/11/2o2o MA-65 Hazard Mitigation - 91.21o(a)(5), 91.31o(a)(3) Describe the jurisdiction's increased natural hazard risks associated with climate change. There are several increased risks in Huntington Beach due to climate change. These are discussed in the City's Local Hazard Mitigation Plan and outlined below:'3 Coastal erosion: Coastal erosion is caused primarily by tides and by wave action from storms.While tides are not affected by climate change, some studies suggest that climate change is expected to cause a io to zo percent increase in intensity of the severe storms that affect Southern California, as discussed in greater detail in the Flood section (Oskin 20t4b). This means that the significant wave events that already cause substantialmay erosion in Huntington Beachbecome more intense,causing greater loss of beaches and coastalbluffs during these events.Sea level rise,which is caused by climate change,may exacerbate the issue.As the surface of the ocean becomes higher,wave and tidal action will be able to reach farther onto and than they currently can.As a result,wave and tide events that currently do not reach far enough to cause any erosion may be able to do so in the future,and wave and tide events that already cause erosion will be able to affect areas farther from the water line. Sea level rise: Sea level rise is a direct consequence of climate change, and would likely not exist to any substantial degree if climate change was not occurring. Climate change does not create any particular considerations for sea level rise,as the hazard itself is a climate change consideration. Tsunamis: The displacement events that cause tsunamis are geologic in nature and unaffected by climate change to any known degree. However, as sea level rise increases the average height of the ocean, this will allow tsunami waves to reach farther inland. Even though climate change is not expected to affect the severity of tsunamis,sea level rise is likely to create the potential for tsunamis to cause greater damage. Describe the vulnerability to these risks of housing occupied by low-and moderate-income households based on an analysis of data,findings,and methods. Low income households are likely to be impacted by climate change in Huntington Beach due to a lack of resources. The Huntington Beach Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (2oi7) noted that this can include droughts,which can include economic hardships for low-income households due to increased water rates. Lower income households may also be disproportionately impacted by earthquake events and sea level rise. https://www.huntingtonbeachca.goviannouncements/attachments/Huntington_Beach_public_review_draft_LH M P.pdf City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 125Review:o3,11,2020 Draft Report for Public / / Strategic Plan SP-05 Overview The Needs Assessment and Market Analysis, which has been guided by the Housing and Community development Survey and public input, identified seven priority needs.These are described below. • 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.

SP-10 Geographic Priorities— 91.215 (a)(1) General Allocation Priorities Huntington Beach is an urbanized coastal community located in northwestern Orange County, California. 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 or more of the.'residents are low ormoderate-income, as seen in Map SP io.1. 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 lowand moderate income areas within the area bound by Balsa Chica Street to the west,Balsa 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"Special Code Enforcement Target Area."

Seniors living in mobile home parks have also seen an exuberant increase in both mobile home and space rents in recent years. There is a need to assist seniors on fixed incomes with the cost of living in mobile home parks. New Unit The production of new housing units is influenced by several market conditions, Production including the cost of land,the cost of construction, and prevailing interest rates. While rates are currently at historic lows,the cost of land and labor act as major barriers to developing any type of new construction in the City with the limited amount of funds available.' Rehabilitation Rehabilitation activities can be influenced by the cost of materials and labor. Home rehabilitation can provide an opportunity for households to maintain safe, decent, affordable housing without the cost of acquisition or production. This may help the City to maintain the availability of units that are affordable to a variety of households. Acquisition,` While the cost of housing continues to rise within the City,the cost of acquisition including is out of reach in many instances. Typically, the City's rehabilitation resources preservation support combined acquisition and rehabilitation projects in partnership with non- profits that leverage City dollars with other funding sources. The cost of land, labor and materials affects the total development costs and the number of units that the City can support in any given year. Another critical issue that influences the use of funds to acquire properties for the creation or preservation of affordable units is the lack of a permanent source of financing.The elimination of the Huntington Beach Redevelopment Agency, coupled with continued reductions in the HOME entitlement, makes addressing priority housing needs more challenging.

Local private and nonfederal 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. 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 2o%of these funds to develop low-and moderate-income housing.The City's match surplus is approximately$2,794,025 as of September 30,2018. 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 -I, 2019 and will continue to do so through September 30,2o2i.The City received this waiver on April 24,2020. 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 is in the process of acquiring land that could be used to develop an emergency homeless shelter to help meet the needs of the ever-growing homeless population,a priority need as described in the 202o/2i-2024125 Consolidated Plan.

City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 155 Substantial Amendment No.Three November 2022 Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan SP-6o Homelessness Strategy- g1.215(d) Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs The City of Huntington Beach is committed to addressing homelessness. In March 2014, the City Council conducted a study session on homelessness in the community,including a presentation by the Executive Director of the Orange County Commission to End Homelessness and the City's Police Chief. Subsequently,the City contracted with City Net,a collaborative organization,to conduct research on the scope and scale of the homeless issues in Huntington Beach,provide an asset map of homeless services and resources, and deliver recommendations about how to strategically leverage existing assets and resources in the community to address the problem. City Net's findings and recommendations are summarized below: 1. The City possesses an abundance of non-profit organizations, faith congregations, local businesses, and community groups that are eager for collaborative solutions to ending homelessness in Huntington Beach. 2. The groups listed above are decentralized both structurally and geographically. 3. The City should invest in coordinating these resources without aggregating them or investing in heavy infrastructure. 4. A proactive connection should be established between the non-profit and faith communities to City safety personnel and other first responders. 5. The City should invest in a multi-sector collective impact collaborative which would meet regularly to achieve goals over the course of 12-months. The City's Police Department recently engaged the services of the Coast to Coast Foundation, a non- profit Police Officer Liaison Program(POLP)designed to eliminate resource barriers and support law enforcement homelessness teams. Coast to Coast partners with police departments throughout Orange County, providing a model that balances enforcement with outreach. Resources include: Homeless Liaison Officer(HLO) kits for daily,patrol, 2417 locker locations kits, homeless relocation, trained outreach team, community campaign/education and empowerment in support of law enforcement. The City's Police Department and Coast to Coast have created a volunteer program specifically designed to the needs of Huntington Beach.The volunteers engage in monthly outreach efforts to the homeless and have experienced great success. Addressing the emergency and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City has and will continue to address the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless and homeless families through support of homeless programs such as the Huntington Beach Youth Emergency Shelter, Interval House, Families Forward, and Mercy House. Through the City's Homeless Task Force,the City will also support the provision of emergency housing and services by Beach Cities Interfaith Services and the local faith-based community. The City has also created a Homeless Outreach Coordinator and Homeless Case Manager position who are responsible for City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan i56 Substantial Amendment No.Three November zozz Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan creating relationships with the homeless and to provide services with an eye toward bringing their homelessness to an end. In FY zo19120, the City Council approved purchase of property located at 17631 Cameron Lane using non-federal funds.Via a substantial amendment to the FY 2o19/zo Annual Action Plan,the City Council will consider approved an allocation of$1.5 over$3.5 million of federal CDBG and CARES Act funds to help offset costs associated operating the homeless shelter facility at the project site.The need for such a facility has increased in recent months due to the COVID-19 pandemic and Orange County's Safer at Home Order. The Navigation Center will bring homeless service providers 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. 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 2020/21,the City will continue its dedication to assisting families in Huntington Beach with much needed rental assistance.In May 2020,a NOFA/RFP was solicited to qualified agencies with experience with administering HOME-funded TBRA programs, and a selection is expected in June zo2o.With an investment of$900,00o towards this effort,the City anticipates that approximately 6o households could be served over a two-year period. Households that qualify for assistance include those that are of low and moderate income,as well as households who are currently housed,but are at risk of losing their housing due to COVID-19.Also, as part of this Substantial Amendment,the City will offer rental assistance to senior owners of mobile homes. Assistance will help to offset space rents that have increased causing financial hardship to seniors living on fixed incomes. Help low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families who are likely to become homeless after being discharged from a publicly funded institution or system of care, or who are receiving assistance from public and private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment,education or youth needs City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 157 Substantial Amendment No.Three November 2022 Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 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 with the Orange County Housing Authority and the Continuum of Care Homeless Issues Task Force. City of Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan 158 Substantial Amendment No.Three November 2022 Huntington Beach Consolidated Plan SP-65 Lead based paint Hazards—91.215(i) Actions to address LBP hazards and increase access to housing without LBP 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. How are the actions listed above related to the extent of lead poisoning and hazards? According to 2017 ACS data, an estimated 9.1 percent of housing units in the City are at risk of lead- based paint and have children aged 6 or under in those units. The efforts listed above are based on the City's on-going efforts to keep households safe from lead-based paint hazards. These efforts are focused on education and response efforts to systematically address lead-based paint issues citywide. How are the actions listed above integrated into housing policies and procedures? 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 becomeavailable.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.

Targeted Populations Programs The City may establish local preferences for special needs groups within its broad, community- wide program, or it may design a specific program that exclusively services one or more special needs groups. If TBRA is provided exclusively to persons with a particular type of special need, the need must be identified in the City's Consolidated Plan as an unmet need and the preference must be needed to fill the gap in benefits and services available to such persons. d. Anti-displacement Assistance Programs TBRA may be used to minimize displacement associated with HOME-funded activities. Tenants who receive HOME TBRA to avoid displacement from a HOME funded project may remain in the project or move to another suitable unit, taking the TBRA with them. However, the City is not allowed to require households who receive TBRA as relocation assistance to participate in self-sufficiency programs. Office of Business Development March 2016 HOME Policy&Procedure Manual Pa041 e. Security Deposit Programs The City may establish a program that limits assistance to help tenants with security deposits. The maximum amount of HOME funds that may be provided for the security deposit is the equivalent of two months' rent for the unit. The security deposit may be made as a grant or a loan. If the deposit is a loan, the terms of that loan, including provisions for repayment, should be set out in a written agreement between the City and the tenant. Utility deposit assistance must be provided in conjunction with a TBRA security deposit or monthly assistance program. In addition, utility deposit assistance may be used only for utilities permitted under the Section 8 utility allowance. This includes electric, gas, water and trash, but does not include telephone and cable television. f. Ineligible Activities The ineligible activities for TBRA programs are as follows: ❖ TBRA may not be used to assist a resident owner of a cooperative or mutual housing unit when the resident is recognized by state law as a homeowner. However, under the provisions of some cooperative or mutual housing agreements, the units are considered rental housing under state law. The residents of this rental housing may receive TBRA. Under any circumstance, a tenant who rents from an owner of a cooperative or mutual housing unit may receive HOME TBRA. ❖ HOME TBRA may not be used to prevent the displacement from projects assisted with Rental Rehabilitation Program funds. + The City may not provide HOME TBRA to homeless persons for overnight or temporary shelter. ❖ HOME TBRA may not duplicate existing rental assistance that already reduces the tenant's rent payment to 30% of income. For example, if the household is already receiving assistance under the County's Section 8 Program, the household may not also receive assistance under the City's HOME TBRA program. 2. Eligible Applicants/Beneficiaries There are two key rules regarding eligible income of households under a HOME TBRA program: a. Low Income HOME TBRA is limited to tenants who are at or below the HUD low income limit. The low income limit is defined as 80% or below of area median income. HUD establishes and periodically publishes this income limit by family size for each jurisdiction. b. Funding Allocation For each fiscal year allocation, at least 90% of the families assisted through HOME TBRA and the households occupying assisted units in HOME rental developments (taken together) must be at or below 60% of area median income. This means that although the program permits assistance to households with incomes of up to 80% of median, the City will only be able to serve a limited number of households whose incomes are between 60% and 80% of median. Office of Business Development March 2016 HOME Policy&Procedure Manual Pag The City needs to assure that the applicant is income eligible prior to signing a contract for TBRA for the household. For initial eligibility purposes, family income under HOME funded TBRA programs may be calculated using one of the three definitions of annual income. The Program Administrator must determine annual income by reviewing source documents evidencing annual income for the family. Income determinations for new TBRA recipients are valid for six months. Eligibility criteria must be met regardless of the type of TBRA program operated by the City. 3. Tenant Selection Requirements The City must have a written tenant selection policy that clearly specifies how families will be selected for participation in their programs. There are two major components of tenant selection: ❖ Income Eligibility: Households who receive HOME funded TBRA must have an annual income that does not exceed 80% of the area median income. •:• Preferences: The City can use HOME funded TBRA programs to support a variety of local goals and initiatives. In fact, with the repeal of the Federal preferences in the 1999 appropriations Act, the City has more discretion concerning tenant selection in their TBRA programs. Establishing Preferences There are several ways to establish preferences in TBRA programs: a. General Community-Wide Program A community-wide program can address the general need for affordable housing by giving more 'buying power' to eligible low income households. Within a community-wide program the City may elect to: ❖ Select households from the publish housing authority's (PHA) Section 8 waiting list, using the PHA preference criteria; or ❖ Establish its own preferences and waiting list. b. Community-Wide Programs with Preferences Through the use of local preferences, the City can target funds to meet specific needs or serve specific purposes. ❖ Residency Preferences: The City may opt to establish a residency preference as part of its community-wide program, which requires TBRA participants to be residents of Huntington Beach. The definition of resident must include persons who currently reside in the jurisdiction, and those who are currently working or have a bonafide job offer in the jurisdiction. However, the City may not establish a requirement for minimum length of residency. ❖ Disabilities Preference: The City may establish local preferences for all persons with disabilities within a broad, community-wide TBRA program. In addition, the City may target its TBRA program to persons with a particular type of disability. Office of Business Development March 2016 HOME Policy&Procedure Manual Pag'!)4 ❖ Self-Sufficiency Program: The City may require HOME TBRA recipients to participate in self-sufficiency programs as a condition of assistance. However, tenants living in a HOME assisted project who receive TBRA as relocation assistance may not be required to participate in self-sufficiency programs. c. Targeted Programs The City is permitted to design local selection criteria that meet the housing needs of specific populations. Below are several examples of targeted TBRA programs: • Preferences for persons with disabilities —The City may also provide a preference for a specific category of individuals with disabilities (for example, persons with AIDS or chronic mental illness) if the specific category is identified in the City's Consolidated Plan as having unmet needs, and if the preference is needed to narrow the gap in benefits and services received by such persons. •:+ Preferences for persons with other special needs — TBRA may also be provided exclusively to persons with a particular type of special need, if the specific category of need is identified in the City's Consolidated Plan. 4. Eligible TBRA Units The TBRA program offers households great flexibility in selecting a housing unit. ❖ Public or private—Units under the TBRA Program may be publicly- or privately-owned. •:+ Rents must be reasonable — The City must disapprove a lease if the City determines the rent is not reasonable, based on rents that are charged for comparable unassisted rental units. • HOME-funded units are OK— Households may select units developed or rehabilitated with HOME assistance. However, the City may not require the household to select a HOME unit as a condition of receiving TBRA. + Portability is an option — The City may require eligible TBRA participants to use their TBRA assistance in units within the jurisdiction, or permit TBRA assistance to be use d to rent units in other jurisdictions. 5. Property and Occupancy Standards a. Section 8 HQS The Section 8 Housing Quality Standards (HQS) must be used for HOME TBRA activities. The City may request waivers from HUD to permit HQS variations for local climatic or geological conditions, or to create consistency with local codes. Inspections to verify compliance with HQS and occupancy standards are made both at initial move-in and annually during the term of the TBRA assistance. b. Occupancy Standards Program administrators must develop local occupancy standards that specify the number of bedrooms needed by households of various sizes and composition Office of Business Development March 2016 HOME Policy&Procedure Manual Pam Further guidance on HUD occupancy standards can be found in a Federal Register Notice from December 1998 (FR-44050N-01 dated 12-18-98). The occupancy standards are used to provide consistent criteria for determining the unit size for which the household is eligible. While the City may refer the household to appropriate units, it may not require the household to select the referral unit. c. Lease Requirements The term of the lease between the tenant and the owner must be at least one year, unless both agree otherwise. The lease may not contain the following provisions: Agreement y he: enan `ter be sued arc to adtnit guilt, or a judgment in-favor;:of the;:owner;in a lawsuit brought in connection�ith the lease; Agreement by the tenant that the owner may take, hold or sell the personal property of household members without notice to the tenant and a court decision on the rights of the parties (this does not apply to personal property left by the tenant after move-out); Agreement by the:tenant not tohold the owner or sits agents legally responsible for any action or failure to act„whether°intentional or negligent; Agreement by the tenant that the owner may institute a lawsuit without notice to the tenant; Agreement;that ttie owner may:evict.,°the tenant (off,athe household members) without a civic . court;proceeds ngg where tl ea i enani nos the right to present.a defens ,;of f e#ore a court decision on the rights of the,tenants and the owner; Agreement by the tenant to waive a trial by jury; Agreement by the tenant to waive-the;tenant's right to appeal :er otherwise challenge a court decision;or%' Agreement by the tenant to pay attorney fees or other legal costs, even if the tenant wins in court. The City must establish standards for when a landlord may elect to terminate or refuse to renew the lease of a TBRA household. These standards must be in writing. They must also be included within the lease and/or in the contract between the City and the tenant. The requirement for 30 days' notice of refusal to renew or termination of tenancy that is required of HOME-funded rental projects does not apply to TBRA. 6. Parameters of Assistance The City is given significant flexibility in modeling the local method of providing TBRA assistance. However, HOME program rules do impose some basic parameters on the level of household and City payment, and the length of time for a single TBRA contract with a household. In addition, the HOME program requires that the City establish certain standards for the cost of the unit. Office of Business Development March 2016 HOME Policy&Procedure Manual Pa444 ❖ Minimum tenant payment: The City may use its discretion in setting this minimum payment level. The minimum payment may be established at a dollar figure (such as $50) or at a percentage of income (such as 10% of monthly income). ❖ Maximum TBRA payment: The maximum amount that the TBRA program may pay to assist any given household is the difference between 30% of the household's adjusted monthly income and the City-wide rent limit established by the City (known as the payment (rent) standard). a. Length of TBRA Assistance The TBRA rental assistance contracts with individual households may not exceed two years. Contracts can be renewed, subject to availability of HOME funds. The two-year period begins the first day of the lease and will end upon termination of the lease (if the TBRA payment is made directly to the landlord). Rental assistance contracts may be shorter than two years. For example if TBRA is used in conjunction with a self-sufficiency program, the City may want to have a shorter contract term of 18 months. In circumstances where the payment is made directly to the tenant, the TBRA payment ends when a lease is terminated. However, payments can begin again once the household enters into a new lease. b. Program Models Within the broad HOME Program parameters, the City is free to design its own individual TBRA program models as follows: ❖ Section 8 Certificate Program Model — Under this type of model, the tenants pay 30% of their monthly adjusted income toward rent. The TBRA assistance then makes up the gap between the tenant's payment and the actual rent plus utilities for the tenant's unit. The rent and utilities of the unit selected by the household may not exceed the City's payment (rent) standard. ❖ Section 8 Voucher Program Model — Under this type of model, the City calculates the differences between 30% of the household's monthly adjusted income and the payment (rent) standard. This gap is then the constant amount of the monthly TBRA assistance. The household is free to select an actual unit that costs more or less than the City's payment (rent) standard. If the household selects a unit costing more than the payment (rent) standard, the household's monthly payment will exceed 30% of its monthly adjusted income. If the household selects a unit costing less than the payment (rent) standard, the household's monthly payment will be less than 30% of its monthly adjusted income. Regardless of whether the unit costs are more or less than the payment (rent) standard, the monthly TBRA to the household remains fixed at the gap between what it can afford and the payment(rent) standard, regardless of the actual unit selected. ❖ Individualized Models — The most compelling reasons for electing to design a new program would be the City's desire to administer a security deposit-only program or a specialized program which addresses a special needs group. Within the general HOME TBRA rules, the City may decide how it wishes to establish limits for these types of programs. Office of Business Development March 2016 HOME Policy&Procedure Manual Pag'L041 c. Payment (Rent) Standard The City must establish a payment (rent) standard. This payment (rent) standard should represent the rent plus utility cost of moderately priced units that meet HUD HQS in the jurisdiction. The payment (rent) standard is established by bedroom size. The payment (rent) standard is similar to the Fair Market Rent (FMR) that is established by HUD for the Section 8 program. ❖ Establishing the payment (rent) standard: The city is given several options for establishing the payment (rent) standard — including using the FMR as a basis. The City may development the payment(rent) standard using one of two methods: • Based on Local Market Conditions • Based on Section 8 FMRs ❖ Administering the payment (rent) standard: Once established the payment (rent) standard remains constant for all units for the City's entire program year. However, HUD does permit the City to have some flexibility in the administration of this payment (rent) standard. • Unit Specific: For up to 20% of the units under its TBRA program, the City may approve a unit-specific payment(rent) standard. This unit-specific payment (rent) standard may be up to 10% above the payment (rent) standard established for all units. 7. Ongoing Responsibilities The City has significant on-going responsibilities for managing a TBRA program. ❖ Occupancy Requirements — The City must ensure that the property standards and occupancy are still met by conducting an annual inspection to ensure that the unit still meets HQS and that the unit is the appropriate size for the household in order to meet the occupancy standard. ❖ Rent Increases — The City must also review and approve rent increases by landlords renting to tenants participating in the TBRA program. Owners may adjust rents as leases are renewed (generally annually). The City must disapprove a lease if the rent is not reasonable. ❖ Recertifying Income — The incomes of tenants receiving rental assistance must be re- examined at least annually using source documentation. The City must re-evaluate family income, size and composition. The rent and assistance is to be adjusted accordingly, based on the circumstances in effect at the time of recertification. If a tenant's income goes above the Section 8 low income limit at re-examination, assistance must be terminated after the City gives reasonable notice to the tenant and the owner. ❖ Tenants on Section 8 Waiting List — special provisions are needed for tenants receiving HOME TBRA who were on the Section 8 waiting list at the time of selection. Households on the Section 8 waiting list when selected for HOME-funded TBRA must remain in their place on the waiting list while receiving the HOME-funded TBRA. Office of Business Development March 2016 HOME Policy&Procedure Manual Paglag 8. Lead-Based Paint HUD's consolidated Federal lead-based paint regulation took affect September 15, 2000. For more information about lead-based paint, see the summary provided in the "Other Federal Regulations" of this manual. Other resources are the training manual, Learning the Rules: A Basic Overview of the Lead-Based Paint Regulations for CPD Programs, the training manual, Making it Work: Implementing the Lead Safe Housing Rule in CPD-funded Programs, and HUD's Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control website, http://www.hud.qov/offices/lead. 9. Calculating the Rental Subsidy a. Using the Section 8 Certificate Model This model assumes a fixed tenant payment. The tenant's share of housing costs (Total Tenant Payment or TTP) is calculated by formula. The City then pays the difference between the tenant's share and the approved rent for the unit. The formula for computing TTP under the Section 8 Rental Certificate Program requires a tenant to pay the greater of: • 30% of monthly adjusted income; • 10% of monthly gross income; or • The welfare rent in as-paid states. The following is an example of calculating the rental subsidy under this model: The Cleavers have been issued a two-bedroom HOME TBRA Coupon. Their annual (gross) and adjusted incomes are $22,500 and $18,300, respectively. They find an apartment that rents for$725(including utilities). The Cleavers must pay the greater of $458 30% of adjusted monthl r inc me• $7 8 300 x 30%7`.1"2 $188 10% of annual(gross) monthly income $22,500 x 10%/12 The program administrator must pay the difference between the tenant's share and the approved rent: Approved Rep $725 (Less) Total Tenant Payment(TTP) (458) City S rare oal Rent, $2 T b. Using the Section 8 Voucher Model This model assumes a fixed City payment. The maximum City subsidy is calculated, and the tenant pays the difference between the subsidy and the approved rent for the unit. Using the Section 8 Rental Voucher method, the City first establishes a payment (rent) standard for the Office of Business Development March 2016 HOME Policy&Procedure Manual Pagll program as a whole. The City generally pays the difference between its payment (rent) standard and 30% of the tenant's adjusted monthly income. However, a minimum tenant payment is requirement. The following is an example of calculating the rental subsidy under this model: The Cleavers have been issued a two-bedroom HOME TBRA Coupon. Their annual (gross) and adjusted incomes are $22,500 and $18,300, respectively. They find an apartment that rents for$725 (including utilities). Their monthly annual (gross) and adjusted income amounts are$458 and$188, respectively. They find an apartment that rents for$800 (including utilities). The City's rent standard is$775. The maximum program subsidy is: Pent Standard $775 (Less) 30% of Adjusted Monthly Income (458) Maximum Program Subbsdy $31.7 The Cleaver's share of the rent is: Approved;Rent $810 (Less) Maximum Subsidy (317) Clea rer' Rent Payment $483 In this example, the Cleavers will pay more than 30% of their adjusted income for housing because they selected a unit that rents for more than the payment (rent) standard. Had the Cleavers found a very inexpensive unit, the requirement that the family must pay at least 10% of monthly gross income might apply. Appved ro Rent $500 (Less) Maximum Subsidy (317) Cleaver's! ent Payment $'p83 However, the Cleavers must pay at least 10% of gross monthly income ($22,500/ 12 months x 10% = $188). Therefore, the program administrator's contribution would be reduced by$5. c. Utility Allowances To determine the portion of the housing cost that will be paid by the City and the portion that will be paid by the household, the City must establish a utility allowance schedule that estimates the Office of Business Development March 2016 HOME Policy&Procedure Manual PagW$fl average cost of utilities for typical types of housing (single-family, row house, high-rise, etc.) and for various utilities and fuel sources (gas, oil, electricity). Utilities included in the schedule generally include those required for water/sewer, electric, gas and trash. Telephone and cable TV are not considered utilities for this purpose. 10. Processing Applications The following are steps in processing applications for a TBRA program: 11. Using TBRA for Anti-Displacement and Relocation Activities a. Displacement Assistance In a HOME project, if post-rehabilitation gross rent (rents and utilities) exceed the tenants' TTP, the tenant is considered rent-burdened. A tenant who moves for this reason is considered displaced. Rent burden may exist even when a tenant occupies a unit that carries HOME rents. To avoid displacement, HOME TBRA or Section 8 assistance may be provided to make the proposed rent affordable to the tenant. b. Relocation Assistance HOME TBRA may be offered to displaced low-income tenants as an alternative to the replacement housing payment required by the Uniform Relocation Act (URA) or Section 104(d). URA rules require that displaced tenants be given the choice of TBRTA or a cash replacement housing payment. Section 104(d) gives the option to the City, but if the City offers TBRA and the tenant prefers a replacement housing payment, the tenant may receive the repayment housing payment at URA (rather than Section 104(d)) levels. In this case, the value of the monthly HOME TBRA must be equal to or greater than the monthly value of the tenant's replacement housing payment. Tenants who accept HOME TBRA must be assured of at least 42 months of assistance when the URA applies and 60 months of assistance when Section 104(d) applies. The tenant must be made aware that HOME assistance will be terminated if, upon annual recertification, the tenant's income exceeds 80% of the area median income. However, the City must continue to provide assistance, either as continued rental assistance payments funded through some other source, or by providing the balance of the assistance in the form of a replacement housing payment. B. Program Procedures The City has entered into an agreement with Interval House, a non-profit entity, which administers the City's TBRA program. The following summarizes the process that Interval House maintains to operate the program: 1. Application Intake and Waiting Lists The City may use the PHA Section 8 waiting list or create a waiting list of its own. Whichever method is used, the City must follow its written tenant selection plan, which explains how local preferences will be applied. Office of Business Development March 2016 HOME Policy&Procedure Manual Pagligit If the City uses the PHA's waiting list, no additional application intake is needed. The PHA will already have taken applications from families seeking rental assistance. If the City decides to set up a separate waiting list, it will have to take applications. Good record-keeping is essential to demonstrate that all eligible families had the opportunity to apply and were treated fairly in the application process. The City should use a written application form and retain records on the disposition of all applications. 2. Eligibility Determinations The City, or the PHA on behalf of the City, must verify all factors that relate to the family's eligibility — the household composition, preference and income information provided by the family. The HOME rules require examination of source documents for TBRA households to determine the family's income. 3. Coupon Issuance Once a household is determined eligible and selected to receive assistance, the City issues the family a TBRA coupon. This is the family's authorization to look for housing (or to request that the City approve the unit in which the family already lives). The City should establish a deadline for the family to locate housing. As a comparison, PHAs give CertificateNoucher holders 60 days to find a unit. In extraordinary circumstances, they may extend the search period for an additional 60 days. 4. Request for Unit Approval When the household finds an acceptable unit and a landlord willing to participate in the program, the tenant submits a request for unit approval and for using TBRA to rent the unit. The City must inspect the unit to assure that it meets Section 8 HQS and to determine if the rent the owner is charging for the unit is reasonable, based on the rents for comparable units in the area. 5. Lease Execution and IDIS Project Set-Up Once the City has inspected and accepted the unit and determined that the rent the owner is charging is reasonable two actions must occur: ❖ Tenant Lease: The owner and the tenant enter into a lease. To cover the special requirements of the HOME program, the City provides a lease addendum to be used in conjunction with the owner's lease. •;• Owner Agreement: The City and the owner enter into an agreement in which the owner agrees to comply with the HOME rules and the City agrees to make the City's share of the payment. At this point, the TBRA Program must be set-up in IDIS. Just as the City would set-up the construction of a multi-family building as a "project" in IDIS, the City sets up its TBRA program as a project, with up to 99 tenants listed under a single project.

Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 3 1058 CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION The City of Huntington Beach through its Affordable Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program (Program) provides deferred payment rehabilitation loans and grants to homeowners that are low-income households. Qualifying properties include single-family homes, townhomes, mobile homes, duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes. The City uses Community Development Block Grant funds made available by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to provide these loans and grants. The City Council authorizes funding, and the Economic Community Development Department either contracts with a consulting firm (Program Administrator) to administer the Program or administers the Program in-house. The primary objective of the Program is to provide financing to households who would otherwise have difficulty paying for the repairs necessary to bring their home to a decent, safe and sanitary quality level. Loans are underwritten and approved by the Program Administrator. The underwriting process is intended to give the City assurance that the borrower is creditworthy, has the ability to repay the debt, and has sufficient collateral to minimize the chance for loan default. Property owners may contact the Economic Community Development Department to obtain the most current Program information. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 4 1059 CHAPTER 2 - PROGRAM General The Affefdable—H414:1430WRer—Rehalai4itatia4Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program is authorized by the City Council and administered by the Program Administrator based upon the Processing Procedures for Affordable Homeowner Rehal4ilitatiGRHomeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program (Processing Procedures) adopted by the City Council. The Processing Procedures are authorized by the City Council. City staff may make technical changes to the Processing Procedures or any form, application, agreement or other document used to implement the Homeowner Loans and Grants Program. Substantive additions or policy revisions outside of clarification or technical corrections require the approval of the City Council. This policy document, effective November 1, 2022 supersedes any existing housing rehabilitation loan and grant policies utilized by City staff and shall apply to all loans or grants approved or made by the City on or after November 1, 2022. At the recommendation of the Program Administrator, and at the sole discretion of the Director of Economic Community Development, an applicant's written request for a waiver of certain Loan Eligibility Requirements may be considered. Waivers are rare, but may include such things as allowing an alternative type of documentation as proof of income or the use of other alternative means to accommodate special circumstances. All waiver requests shall include a detailed explanation of the circumstances surrounding the request, and why the request is reasonable and necessary for the safety or well-being of the borrower/grantee. The City will at no time consider or grant a waiver that is inconsistent with established HUD CDBG Guidelines. Housing Rehabilitation Program The City offers both grants and loans for ownership housing rehabilitation. The ongoing funding is authorized by the City Council upon the recommendation of the Director of Economic Community Development. The loans are offered at below market interest rates to qualified homeowners that are low—income households. The grants provide money for smaller projects that can range from correcting deferred maintenance to correcting health and safety defects or for lead based paint abatement. Details for these programs are provided below. Deferred Payment Loans (DPL) The rehabilitation loans are funded from HUD CDBG. The amount of available funding varies annually. Homeowners that are low-income households are eligible to apply for loans of up to $75,000 under the DPL. Individual loans are evaluated, underwritten, and approved by the Program Administrator. The funding limit is set at $75,000 for single—family homes, condominiums and multi-family residencies. Mobile homes will be capped at $ ,00025.000. Funding limits for individual loans may be increased by up to $10,000 ($5,000 for mobile homes) if deemed necessary to meet the HUD HQS requirements. Any increase above the Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 5 1060 $75,000 loan limit must be approved by the Director of Community Economic Development. Prior recommendation for approval by the Program Administrator will be required before a request to exceed the funding limits will be submitted to the Director of Economic Community Development for approval. The current household income limits are available in the ommunity Development Department. The interest rate for these loans is 3% simple interest subject to change at the direction of the Director of Economic Community Development. Payment of the principal and accrued interest is deferred until the property is sold, transferred, or refinanced. However, if the DPL is repaid within two years, a prepayment penalty will be applied. This requirement is imposed to ensure that the loan funds are not used on a speculative basis to enhance the home's value for resale purposes. Rehabilitation Grants The City offers a one-time grant not to exceed $10,00015,000 to homeowners that are low- income households for deferred maintenance and health and safety-related household repairs. Deferred maintenance can include paint, siding replacement, window and door replacement and roof repair or removal of any condition of blight. Household repairs may include restoration or replacement of inoperable or severely deteriorated plumbing, heating, and electrical systems, structural and appliance replacement. A homeowner is not eligible to receive a grant if a DPL has been funded within the past five years unless extreme emergency can be established. However, if additional funds are needed for emergency repairs the amount of the additional funds will be added to the loan balance. If an owner who receives a grant applies to and is approved for a DPL within five years of receipt of the grant funds, the grant amount will be added to and become a part of the loan.-All grants extended in addition to DPL loans must be approved by the Director of Economic Community Development prior to funding. A grant will not be extended if the estimated cost of repairs required to meet the health and safety code exceeds $10 0$15,000. In this case, the borrower may apply for a DPL. The Program Administrator must approve the proposed grant and scope of work. With this approval, the grant recipient may proceed with the authorized rehabilitation. After work is completed and inspected, the homeowner must submit to the City either an original receipt or invoice. A licensed contractor must perform all work. Mobile Home Housing Quality Standards Grants Homeowners that qualify to receive Mobile Home Tenant Based Rental Assistance (MHTBRA) to pay space rent for their mobile home must demonstrate that the mobile home meets HUD Housing Quality Standards (HQS). Homeowners found eligible to receive MHTBRA are also eligible to receive an HQS Grant of up to $1,200 in CDBG funds to make corrections needed to meet HUD HQS requirements. Such items may include installation of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, GFCI protectors, and water heater earthquake straps if needed. HQS Grant candidates will be considered in conjunction with approval to receive MHTBRA. When homeowner eligibility is confirmed as eligible to receive MHTBRA, an HQS Inspection Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 6 1061 of the mobile home shall be conducted. If corrections are determined as necessary to meet HUD HQS standards, the homeowner will be offered an HQS Grant up to $1,200 to complete the necessary work. The Program Administrator or their authorized representative will develop a scope of work and assist the homeowner to select a licensed contractor, and confirm completed work. With prior approval from the Program Administrator, the homeowner, volunteer or family member is eligible to perform work if they have the proper license (if applicable) to perform said work. In this case, the grant will only pay for materials and permit fees (as needed), not labor. If the estimated cost of repair exceeds $1,200, the homeowner may apply for a Rehabilitation Grant up to $15,000 or loan up to $25,000 depending upon available funding. A homeowner that has qualified to receive MHTBRA must make corrections to their mobile home in order to meet HQS standards, and will be provided 120 days to complete the necessary repairs through the HQS Grant or Emergency Grant Programs. MHTBRA funds to assist the eligible homeowner with space rent will be frozen during this 120-day period to achieve compliance. Any extension of time beyond 120 days will be considered on a case-by-case basis and must be approved by the Housing Manager. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 7 1062 CHAPTER 3 - PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS General There are a number of regulatory requirements associated with federally funded municipal housing rehabilitation loan programs. The City has also elected to impose certain additional restrictions in order to assure that the Affordable Homeowner RehabilitationHomeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program will be utilized in a manner that best serves the community. It is not intended for the City to make loans that are unreasonably risky thus jeopardizing its investment. The requirements discussed below are designed to address these matters. The loan requirements pertain to owners of single-family homes, townhomes, and mobile homes. Additional requirements for duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes are provided in Appendix A. Eligibility The City will only consider loan and grant applications for homes that satisfy the following minimum requirements: • The home must be located within the City of Huntington Beach. • The home must be owner occupied. • If the property is located within a flood zone, adequate flood insurance is required. • The property must be zoned for appropriate residential use. • The City's Municipal Code must allow the proposed improvements. • The rehabilitation must bring the property (including all units within the property) into compliance with existing City building and zoning codes and HUD HQS. • No property can have loans that cumulatively exceed 80% of the property's value — this includes the rehabilitation loan. • The debt to income ratio cannot exceed 50% the homeowner's income. • The homeowner must qualify as a low-income household. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 8 1063 Application Consideration Factors Loan and grant applicants will be considered on a first-come-first-served basis and approved as funding permits. The following factors will be analyzed when approving projects: • Availability of funds. • Remaining economic life of the proposed improvements on the property. • Location of the project — although the programs are offered citywide, preference will be granted to those homes located within the ec-CBDG Enhancement Areas. Established CDBG Enhancement Areas shall have first priority in the case of limited funds. • Extent of rehabilitation required to meet HUD HQS and to meet building requirements,. such as architectural compatibility with the neighborhood. • The degree of impact the rehabilitation of the home will have on the neighborhood_ • Equity position of the borrower. • Credit worthiness of the borrower. • For duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes, the homeowner agrees to restrict at a minimum 51% of the rental units to low-income tenants at the defined affordable rental rates until the rehabilitation loan is repaid in full. Application Fee Borrowers must pay a loan-processing fee of $500 for title search, title update, appraisal, credit report, and recording as needed. The fee may be paid from loan proceeds. The fee may be adjusted to reflect current market conditions at the discretion of the Director of GeffimuRity-DeveteeFpfentDirector of Community Development. Determining Interest Rates The DPL interest rate is 3% simple interest. The Director of Economic Community Development may determine that the interest rate no longer best reflects current market conditions, at his/her discretion, another interest rate may be adopted. Loan Payments The rehabilitation loans must be repaid under the following terms: Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 9 1064 • Unless loan documents specifically allow an existing loan to be assumed by a new owner upon the sale or transfer of the property, the City will require that the loan be repaid by the borrower according to the terms of the Promissory Note and Loan Agreement when a property is sold or transferred, transferred to a trust or refinanced. • Simple interest accrues on the principal balance until the loan is repaid. The accrued interest must be paid concurrently with the repayment of the principal balance. • Immediate payment of the principal balance and accrued interest is triggered by the borrower's default of the loan agreement (see Chapter 6 —"Defaults"). Loans must follow the individual program guidelines as described below in this chapter. Prepayment Penalty If a rehabilitation loan is paid within two years of the date of the loan agreement, there will be a prepayment penalty equal to the maximum amount the law allows at the time of default. This penalty may be waived at the discretion of the Director of Economic Community Development. If a prepayment penalty is waived for cause, the circumstances and justification must be clearly documented in the loan file. A loan may be paid in full with no penalties assessed at any time after two years. The purpose of this condition is to preclude borrowers from using these funds solely for the purpose of upgrading a home and then putting the home up for sale. The program's basic purpose is to help people repair the home in which they intend to live. Make Payments on all Debts Borrowers must agree to remain current on their payments for all debts recorded against the property. Should a borrower default on any debt recorded against the property, thus triggering foreclosure proceedings, the City would be at risk of losing its investment. Failure to remain in good standing with all creditors who have a claim against the property is a cause of default and would make the rehabilitation loan immediately due and payable. Primary Residence Under the Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program, the borrower is required to own and reside in the property being financed, and have a likelihood of continuing to reside in the property for a minimum of two years. For duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes, the homeowner must reside in one of the units, and rent at least 51% of the other units to qualified low-income households. Any violation of these requirements represents an event of default. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 10 1065 Property Maintenance The borrower is required to maintain the property in good condition during the term of the rehabilitation loan (15 years) and in compliance with applicable City and state laws and codes. The applicant must further agree to comply with HQS for the duration of the loan. Fire and Hazard Insurance The home taken as collateral for the rehabilitation loan must have adequate insurance coverage to protect the City from loss due to fire or other hazards. The property must be insured for an amount equal to the greater of: (1) the outstanding loans on the property, or (2) the replacement cost of the improvements. Borrowers are required to provide evidence of insurance during the term of the loan on an annual basis. The City must be designated on such insurance as an additional loss payee. Non-payment of insurance is an event of default and will make the loan due and payable. The borrower must certify the details of the coverage before a loan is disbursed by providing the City with the original policy or binder. Policies must show an inception date prior to, or corresponding with, the date of rehabilitation loan funding. Flood Insurance During the credit evaluation process, the City will determine if the property is located in a special flood hazard area by reviewing flood maps located at the Building Department. If the property is found to be located within a designated special flood zone area, the borrower will be required to obtain flood insurance. Evidence of such insurance must be received prior to rehabilitation loan funding. Property Taxes and Homeowner Association Dues Borrowers are required to pay all property taxes and Home Owner Association dues during the term of the loan. Non-payment is an event of default and will make the rehabilitation loan due and payable. Use of Funds Rehabilitation loan funds are for the sole purpose of financing construction or reimbursing construction expenditures as identified in the approved scope of work. In the event the City determines that a borrower misused loan funds, the loan will become immediately due and payable. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 11 1066 Timing of Rehabilitation Projects After the loan has been approved and loan documents have been signed, the borrower will have 30 days to commence construction work. All work must be completed within a period not to exceed 180 days. The Borrower (homeowner and/or homeowner's contractor) will diligently purse the rehabilitation construction within the schedule identified above. -The Program Administrator may extend, in writing, the deadline for completing improvements for a period reasonably necessary to overcome a delay if the delay is due to a cause that is beyond the Borrower's reasonable control. A cause is beyond the Borrower's reasonable control if the Borrower with reasonable diligence, could not have foreseen and avoided the cause. Such causes include, but are not limited to, Acts of God; unusually severe weather or flood; concealed conditions; and unavoidable inability to secure materials, supplies tools or transportation. Non-discrimination Applicants will not be discriminated against on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, creed, ancestry, national or ethnic origin, age, family or marital status, handicap or disability. In addition, applicants may not discriminate in the lease, rental, use, occupancy, and awarding of contracts with respect to the property to be rehabilitated with the assistance of a rehabilitation program loan or grant. Complaint Procedures Complaints concerning the Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program must be submitted in writing to the Program Administrator. Complaints will be accepted only if they are in writing and are received within 30 days from the event giving rise to the complaint. The Program Administrator will contact the complainant and attempt to resolve the problem. A written response will be made to the complainant within 10 business days. If a complainant is not satisfied with the written response, a request for an appeal may be filed with the Housing Manager. The written request must identify the reasons for the appeal and must be received by the Housing Manager within 15 days from the date of the Program Administrator's written response. In the event the request does not meet these requirements, the complainant will be notified that the appeal request is denied; otherwise, the complainant will be invited to meet with the Housing Manager and Program Administrator to express his/her complaint. The response of the Housing Manager will be made in writing within 10 business days. If the complainant is not satisfied with review and decision of the Housing Manager the complainant may appeal the decision to the Director of Economic Community Development. The Director will review the complaint and then make a final ruling on the issue. The decision of the Director of Economic Community Development will be final. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 12 1067 CHAPTER 4 - PROCESSING General The process of handling a loan from the acceptance of an application through funding is called loan processing. Upon approval of the loan the City and applicant will enter into a loan agreement followed by the funding of the loan. Included in Appendix B are sample Loan Agreements (Single-Family Deferred Loan, Single-Family Rehabilitation Grant, aged Mobilehome Rehabilitation Grant, HQS Grant). The following is a step-by-step outline of the loan processing procedures for the rehabilitation loan and grant programs. The Application Applicants for the City's Homeowner Rehabilitation and Loans and Grants Program must provide the information identified on Rehabilitation Grant Application or HQS Grant Application (Appendix B) and the information on the Loan Application (Appendix C). The applications will be reviewed by the Program Administrator. A loan applicant's qualifying criteria will be summarized on the Rehabilitation Loan Qualifying Sheet (Appendix D). The information provided on these forms is summarized below: • Property information and purpose of loan • A description of the proposed repairs • Applicant information and proof of residency • Employment information • Income and expense information • Assets and liabilities information • Declarations (credit history, citizenship, ethnicity)' • Schedule of real estate owned (for owners of duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes) • Schedule of rents for owners of duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes that are for additional loan requirements (for owners of duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes) All applicants are required to sign an Authorization for Release of Information Form (Appendix E) that allows the release to the Agency of any materials, which are deemed necessary to complete and verify the application. All submitted applications are reviewed for completeness and program eligibility. When an applicant is determined to be eligible based 1 Information on citizenship and ethnicity is only included on the Loan Application. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 13 1068 on the information in the application, a preliminary property inspection, credit report, title, appraisal and lead-based paint inspection are ordered and scheduled, as needed. Application Log As the City receives each application, it is recorded in an application log. This procedure assists City staff in tracking individual applications, and allows for management oversight of the loan origination process. Qualifying Rehabilitation Loans Upon receipt of a completed application package, the Program Administrator will verify the applicant's eligibility. The applicant's financial information is reviewed for compliance with the rehabilitation loan and grant parameters. Issues such as debt to income ratio, loan-to-value ratio, and credit history are evaluated at that time. The Loan Approval Form is provided as Appendix F. Loan Underwriting/Qualifying Form Upon receipt of completed application package, the Program Administrator will perform the underwriting using the Qualifying Sheet. This form is designed to guide the Program Administrator through the general approval criteria of the loan program. Low Income Household Qualification Classification within Low-Income category is based upon household size and the gross income of all adult individuals who reside within the household. HUD publishes updated income guidelines annually for Orange County. These guidelines are used to establish the maximum household income for each household size. As part of the underwriting review, staff members will verify that the homeowner and tenants (if applicable) qualify as low-income households as defined by CDBG. The Program Administrator will also review the project scope of work at this point in the process. Income For the purposes of the rehabilitation loan and grant programs the Gross Income calculation is based on the California Code of Regulations Title 25 Section 6914 definition (Appendix G). Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 14 1069 Debt-to-Income Ratio The applicant's monthly expenses such as housing costs, auto loans, revolving charge accounts, alimony, and child support must be identified in the application. The applicant's debt-to-income ratio is then calculated by dividing the monthly expenses by the monthly gross income. The debt-to-income ratio is one of the basic criteria used to determine if an applicant has the ability to repay a home mortgage. For the rehabilitation loan and grant programs the applicant total debt to income ratio may not be higher than 50%, unless the Program Administrator recommends an exception subject to approval by the Housing Manager. Loan-to-Value Ratio The total of all liens on the subject property, including the City loan, may not exceed 80% of the after-rehabilitation appraised value of the home. The Director of Economic Community Development may set lower loan-to-value limits, depending on current market conditions. All existing and proposed encumbrances on the property are determined, and a comparison of the encumbrances to the value of the property is made. The value of the property is then established. The loan-to-value ratio is calculated by dividing the encumbrances by the sum of the appraised value at the time the loan is qualified and the City's loan amount. When there is more than one existing loan on a property, and the City will be required to accept a third position, the third position loans will receive more stringent review and risk analysis than those in a first or second position. The City will not accept any lien position lower than third. Income History To verify that the borrower has the ability to pay their existing monthly expenses, salaried applicants must provide written verification of two years income. Two years of records is required to verify a pattern of income. Only the most recent year is used for determining whether the household qualifies under the established income limitations. At the discretion of the Program Administrator the verification may be in the form of one or more of the following: completed and signed federal tax returns, W-2 forms, pay stubs, and/or direct employment verification forms; and bank statements in case of direct deposited funds, such as pensions or Social Security income. In the case of authorized waivers, as discussed in the "Approval and Revision of Policies and Procedures", the Director of Economic Community Development may require or accept an alternate form of income verification. Self-employed applicants or those with sole-proprietor businesses must also provide a minimum of two years income history. Minimum acceptable verification must be in the form of completed and signed federal tax returns. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 15 1070 Verifications All income and asset sources must be verified independently of the information provided on the borrower's application. It is the responsibility of the City to obtain and evaluate verifications for accuracy. One method of evaluating accuracy of an applicant's financial information is to compare items listed on the credit report with the items listed on the application. The applicant must account for any item not listed in one place or the other. Any derogatory credit information must be fully explained in writing by the borrower. Significant derogatory credit information may be reason for denial of the loan. Title Insurance The City's ability to lend money where real estate is being used as collateral is dependent in most cases upon the applicant having clear title to the property and being able to give the City a secured interest in the property. In order to assure that the borrower has accurately represented title to real estate, all such loans must be supported by a Preliminary Title Report obtained by the City. A Title Officer prepares a title report after a search of public records, maps, and other relevant documents. This report ascertains title ownership and the existence of easements, restrictions, rights of way, conditions, encumbrances, or other matters affecting the title to, or use of, real property. A visual inspection of the property may also be made. A Preliminary Title Report is a signed and dated formal report that sets out in detail the current conditions to a parcel of land. The following matters must be checked carefully when reviewing a title report: • The estate or interest covered • The recorded owner • The parcel of land • Exceptions, liens, and encumbrances • Conveyances Preliminary Property Inspection The applicant shall agree that the City can require inspections of the property to be conducted at any time during the rehabilitation process to assure compliance with City and state Building Codes, HUD HQS and HUD Lead Based Paint Standards. The applicant must also permit all other inspections deemed necessary regarding the property such as the Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 16 1071 rehabilitation work, materials, equipment, payrolls, and conditions of employment pertaining to the work. After an applicant has been determined initially eligible for rehabilitation assistance, a preliminary property inspection will be scheduled. Prior to entry by City staff or authorized representative, the owner shall agree to the right of entry to inspect work on the property in consideration of eligibility for approval of a loan and approval of completed work by signing the Right of Entry Agreement between the City and the owner (Appendix H). This inspection will allow the Program Administrator to verify the extent of repairs needed to correct City code violations or to ascertain the existence of other property deficiencies. The Scope of Work Report will need to be approved by the Program Administrator at the time of loan approval. Only items identified in this scope of work may be funded by the City's loan, unless change orders are necessary to address unknown items. Loan Approval Upon the receipt and analysis of all required application information by the City, the Program Administrator will evaluate the application and other pertinent documentation. Based on this information, the Program Administrator will recommend approval or denial of the application. The Loan Approval Form is used to determine whether the applicant has sufficiently satisfied each approval criteria for a loan. The Program Administrator and the City will sign the Loan Approval Form to document approval of the loan. Selection of Contractors Contracting must be done on a competitive bid basis. Prior to loan approval, the Program Administrator will work with the property owner to prioritize the necessary scope of work, and the borrower will request bids from home improvement contractors. The homeowner must show due diligence or evidence of the solicitation of at least three bids, and the contract must be awarded to the lowest-cost, qualified bidder who meets the City's licensing and insurance requirements. The applicant may not award any contract for rehabilitation work to any contractor who, at the time of bid acceptance, does not have a current and valid State of California Contractor's License, City of Huntington Beach business license, and insurance. A contract may not be awarded to a contractor who has been disqualified by the City, HCD, or HUD. The City reserves the right to disqualify any contractor it deems unqualified to carry out the work to be performed. A homeowner is eligible to perform his/her work provided they have the proper license to perform said work. In this case, the loan or grant will only pay for materials (not labor). When a contractor has been selected and loan approval has been obtained and lien or Deed of Trust has been secured against the owner's property, the Program Administrator will authorize work to begin. In the event a borrower begins construction work before Program Administrator approval is given, such work will not be an eligible activity under the rehabilitation loan or grant. Conflict of Interest Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 17 1072 No member of the governing body of the City or an employee who exercises any functions or responsibilities in the administration of this program can have any interest, direct or indirect, in the proceeds of the loan, grant or in any contract entered into by the applicant for the performance of work financed. No City employee can have any financial interest in any contract, subcontract, or agreement either for themselves or those with whom they have business or immediate family ties. City employees who qualify as low income households will be permitted to participate in the Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program. However, in no instance shall an employee of the Community Development Department be permitted to apply and participate in the programs. With the exception of a confirmed, dire emergency, all applications received from City employees are to be considered and processed in the same manner and order as all other applications, using the same established qualifying criteria as approved herein. At no time shall an application received from a City employee be given preferential treatment nor shall an employee applicant be offered preferential terms in connection with a loan or grant. Bonus, Commission or Fee The applicant may not pay a bonus, commission, or fee to any individual or business for the purpose of obtaining approval of the loan application or for any other approval to complete the rehabilitation work. Acceptable Contracts Three forms of contracting will be allowed under this program as follows: • Contracts between the homeowner and a general contractor (a sample contract is provided in Appendix 1); • Contracts between the homeowner and a subcontractor; and • Contracts between the homeowner (acting as a contractor) and vendors. All general contractors, homeowners acting as contractors and subcontractors must be licensed and in good standing with the State of California and the City of Huntington Beach. Homeowners acting as their own contractor cannot be compensated for labor. Change Orders All change orders to the contract require the signature of both the contractor and the borrower. The Program Administrator must also approve change orders in order for them to be included in the rehabilitation loan. Construction Progress Inspections From time to time during construction, a contractor may request payment for work completed. Before payment will be approved, the Program Administrator will inspect the property to determine that the work has been completed or that an appropriate increment of Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 18 1073 the work has been completed. A material and lien release must be supplied for the portion of the work completed in an amount equal to the payment being made. Funding the Loan Upon loan approval by the Program Administrator and selection of qualified contractors by the borrower, the Program Administrator will create material requisitions for each contractor (material requisitions are used to open purchase orders). If payments are made through the City, separate material requisitions are required for each individual contractor. Checks will be made payable to the contractor or to an escrow company in the amount of the funds to be disbursed per the loan agreement. All funding documents will be made part of the permanent file. When a purchase order is opened, a copy must be placed in the file, and one copy must be given to the Economic DevolopmentCommunitv Development Department's finance coordinator. A final copy must be filed in the Department's purchase order file system. Before funding preparation is complete, the City's Rehabilitation Loan Database must be updated to include the new loan. The Program Administrator maintains this database,-ia Microsoft Accocs. Prior to initiation of the work, the City may enter into an agreement with an escrow company into which the loan amount will be deposited. The standard Escrow Disbursement Agreement Form is provided in Appendix I. After each phase of work has been completed and inspected, an invoice must be submitted to the City for payment. It is submitted to Accounts Payable or to an escrow company contracted by the City to have a check printed and provided to the contractor. A copy will be maintained in the permanent file. If an escrow company disburses the funds, an Authorization of Loan Disbursement form, provided in Appendix J, is sent to the escrow agent authorizing payment to the contractor. The escrow agent will follow the "Control Instructions" (a sample is provided in Appendix K) to ensure all contingencies have been meet prior to distribution of funds. For loans existing prior to May 2007, a copy of the Promissory Note and the Loan Service Set-up Form was forwarded to the City's loan service company. Monthly accounting statements from the loan service company are reviewed and reconciled. The loan servicing company sends out late letters to delinquent borrowers. In addition, the City may contact delinquent borrowers and will document all conversations, correspondence, etc., in file. Contractor Lien Releases After a contractor completes the approved rehabilitation work, a request for final payment must be accompanied by a complete and signed lien release for all construction and material liens whether or not recorded against the subject property. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 19 1074 Final Inspection After all rehabilitation work is finished, the property will be inspected by the homeowner and the City to verify that the approved scope of work has been competed. This inspection is required before the final loan disbursement will be approved. Acceptance of Work The City will not be a party to a construction contract. Through its rehabilitation loan and grant programs, the City provides funding to projects and assists with monitoring the project according to the approved scope of work. The City will not be a party to any claims or disputes between the owner and contractor. In the event a dispute arises between the homeowner and the contractor concerning the contracted scope of work, the City will refer the homeowner and/or contractor to the State Board of Contractors. The contractor and owner agree to protect, defend and hold harmless the City for unpaid work, labor or materials with respect to the contractor's performance or for the contractor's failure to complete work or within the agreed-upon period. Post Funding Audit The Program Administrator is responsible for reviewing all application and loan documents for accuracy. Proper lien position, proper designation of Beneficiary/Trustor/Trustee, adherence to program guidelines, and any special issues will also be reviewed. A checklist will be provided and kept current with regard to City and CDBG required file documentation. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 20 1075 CHAPTER 5 - DOCUMENTATION General Master loan documents for the DPL loan program are prepared by the City Attorney's Office. Subsequently, individual loan documents are prepared by Program Administrator in accordance with the City Attorney approved master documents. Documents Required The following loan documents are required for every DPL secured by real property: • Promissory Note • Deed of Trust • Truth in Lending Statement • Disclosures (e.g., Fair Lending, Lead-Based Paint) • Notice of Opportunity to Rescind Transaction • Minor Rehabilitation Environmental Review • Notice to Contractor and Homeowner Promissory Note As security for the City's rehabilitation loans, the borrower is required to sign a Promissory Note Secured by a Deed Of Trust. The Deed Of Trust will be recorded with the Office of the Orange County Clerk-Recorder. This document protects the City's investment should the borrower attempt to sell the property or incur additional debt against the property before their loan with the City has been repaid. For a loan on a mobile home, the borrower is required to allow placement of the City as the Legal Owner on the mobile home Certificate of Title (or as junior lien-holder if an existing loan is on the Certificate of Title). The City must remain on the Certificate of Title until the rehabilitation loan has been repaid in full. The note defines the essential terms of the loan and describes the repayment obligation of the borrower. Basic components include principal amount, interest rate, payment terms and default provisions. Appendix L includes a Promissory Note for single-family homes and Appendix M includes a Promissory Note for mobile homes. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 21 1076 Deed of Trust The Deed of Trust creates a lien on real property serving as collateral for a loan. This lien excludes personal property not affixed to the land, but includes personal property that is affixed to the land including mobile_homes. There are three parties to a Deed Of Trust: (1) the Trustor (the borrower), (2) the trustee (for City loans, r a City appointed title company will act as trustee), and (3) beneficiary (the City as the lender). Basic terms of the Deed of Trust include: • A description of the Promissory Note that the trust deed secures • A definition of the obligations of the borrower that the trust deed covers • A legal description of the real property that is subject to the trust deed • Warranties and covenants • Property insurance • Events of default • Remedies The Deed of Trust requires the Trustor's signature to be acknowledged in front of a Notary Public, and must be recorded with the County Recorder. A Deed of Trust form is provided in Appendix N. Lien Against Mobile Home Title Liens created against mobile homes on rented spaces (mobilehome parks) are processed by HCD. The formed used is entitled "Statement to Encumber" (Appendix 0) or in the case of a loan in second position or junior lienholder, the form used is entitled "Statement of Lien" (Appendix P). Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 22 1077 Disclosures and Notices Several different laws govern financial privacy rights. These include the California Right to Financial Privacy Act and the Federal Right to Financial Privacy Act, both of which govern the process of releasing a borrower's financial information. Essentially, these regulations allow a lender to disclose a borrower's financial records only upon the receipt of legal process or with the borrower's written authorization. The lender is then required to notify the borrower of the receipt of legal process, unless ordered by the court not to do so. Because credit and application information is not subject to public disclosure to anyone other than the borrower, any request for such information by legal process or by anyone other than the signer of the Promissory Note will be referred to the Office of the City Attorney for disposition. Written requests by the borrower for copies of financial information may be handled directly by the Program Administrator. A copy of the written request will be maintained in the loan file. Authorization to access of private information and privacy disclosure notice is provided as Appendix Q. Various laws and regulations govern real estate-secured loans and require that lenders provide applicants with certain information. These requirements are as follows: • Truth in Lending — Regulation Z Regulation Z is a consumer protection regulation that requires a lender to provide clear and understandable credit terms to consumers granted credit under specific situations. Regulation Z covers credit secured by any real property for any amount when granted to consumers for personal and household purposes. A Truth in Lending document is provided to the borrower disclosing the credit terms required by Regulation Z. • Lead-Based Paint Hazard Warning Applicants for rehabilitation assistance (and tenants in a property being rehabilitated) must be provided with information regarding lead-based paint. Evidence of the receipt of this information must be clearly documented in the loan file Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 23 1078 The lead-based paint abatement requirements are determined by the amount of funding the City provides, as described in the following chart: Required Activities to Address Lead-Based Paint <$5,000 $5,000-$25,000 >$25,000 Approach to Lead Do no harm Identify and control Identify and abate Hazard Evaluation lead hazards lead hazards and Reduction Notification Yes Yes Yes Lead Hazard 1.

Clearance of work site Any required lead-based paint inspections will be performed and paid for by the City in compliance with state and federal lead-based paint regulations. The City will assist the homeowner in acquiring grants to pay for the treatment or abatement of all lead-based paint found, if grant funds are available. Lead-based paint reports will be provided to the homeowner and made available to the contractors working on the property. Only a certified contractor can remove the lead -based paint. The contractor engaged to remove the lead-based paint will not be paid until evidence of a lead-based paint clearance is presented to the City. Any costs associated with the removal or clearance of lead—based paint will be added to the rehabilitation loan or grant. When these costs exceed the maximum loan or grant, the Director of Economic Community Development can authorize increasing the loan or grant to pay for these federally mandated procedures up to a maximum loan amount of $60,000 including the cost of building rehabilitation. • Fair Lending and Disclosure Statement Applicants for rehabilitation assistance must be provided with information on discrimination in the provision of or in the availability of financial assistance. Evidence of the receipt of the Fair Lending Notice must be included in the loan file. A copy of the Fair lending Notice is included in Appendix R and Regulation Z is included in Appendix S. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 24 1079 Historic Preservation Compliance Any property listed on the City, County, or State Historic Survey must obtain approval from the City's Planning DepartmentState of California Department of Parks and Recreation Office of Historic Preservation -for any proposed exterior improvements. The requirement is imposed to assure that the improvements are compatible with the style and architecture of the building, and that they maintain or enhance the character of the property. Notice of Opportunity to Rescind Transaction Regulation Z allows consumers the right to cancel a loan transaction when a security interest is taken in their personal residence. According to the regulation, the rescission period is three business days. No funds may be disbursed, no service may be performed, and no materials may be delivered in connection with the transaction until this time-period has expired. The City may, however, perfect its security interest and record the Ddeed of trust Trust prior to the expiration of this timo period. Notice to Contractor and Homeowner of Contractor Provisions The Homeowner/Contractor Agreement helps establish the responsibilities of the homeowner and contractor as they relate to the construction contract, program guidelines and procedures, requirements of the lender (City), state and federal government, and the project in general. The homeowner and contractor must both abide by the provisions contained within the Agreement, as evidenced by their signatures, or the loan will not be funded. A sample Homeowner/Contractor Agreement is provided in Appendix T. Safeguarding Documents Original loan documents (e.g., Promissory Note, Deed of Trust, mobilehome Certificate of Title) are to be maintained in a secure and fire resistant location if possible in the Economic gsveldpglecitCommunity Development Department or another location selected by the Community Development Department. A borrowers' private information will be protected by the City to the maximum extent permitted by law. The City maintains and grants access to its—borrowers' information only in accordance with its internal security standards,which restricts access to non-public personnel, or in response to a required random audit of City Housing Loan Program files. When a loan is paid in full or about to be paid in full, these documents will be released to a licensed escrow company, or in certain circumstances, they will be reconveyed directly to the borrower by the City. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 25 1080 CHAPTER 6 - LOAN MAINTENANCE AND ACCOUNTING General During the life of a loan several issues can arise which cause the City to revisit the loan file. Some of those issues may involve defaults, partial payments, full repayment, or property insurance cancellation. This chapter addresses those situations that may occur between the time the loan has been funded and the point of full repayment of the loan. File Organization Loan file organization is an important aspect of loan portfolio management. Rehabilitation Loan files will be organized according to a basic credit file format. The objectives of this procedure are: • To ensure that all files contain the documentation necessary to support sound credit decisions. • To ensure that files are organized in a way that is efficient and clearly understood by individuals requiring access to the files. There are six sections to the loan file and they are as follows: 1. Correspondence (letters, documentation and/or an accounting of events.). 2. Application: signed Loan Approval Form; completed Qualifying Sheet; original loan application; required signed disclosures; income and asset information and verification; mortgage and rent documentation; insurance documentation; and federal tax forms. 3. Title Information/Appraisal: property profiles; appraisals; property comparable information; preliminary title reports and information; preliminary mobile home certificate of title and registration documents and information; completed environmental review and pictures (photographs); lead-based paint inspection report and lead-based paint clearance (if applicable); and credit report. 4. Fund Disbursement: record of all loan funding and disbursements, copies of all construction invoices, lien releases, disbursement authorizations, checks issued, escrow disbursement agreement, copy of funding check from City and associated back up documentation. 5. Loan Documents: The original Promissory Note, Deed of Trust and/or Certificate of Title are to be stored in a safe and secure location. Additional documents to be retained on file include Regulation Z (or Truth in Lending Statement; Statement of Lien forms; Power of Attorney forms; Right of Rescission; final title policy; Lead-Based-Paint Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 26 1081 Clearance if needed; Declaration of CC&R's if applicable; insurance declarations with the City as loss payee; loan agreements. 6. Construction Contract/Bids/Work Write-Up: signed accepted work write-up with insurance and license information for each accepted contractor, copy of original, unexecuted work write-up/inspection report. A sample copy of a Notice to Proceed in provided as Appendix U. Accounting for Deferred Repayment Loans DPL obligations do not require principal or interest payments to be made during the term of the loan. For that reason, the loan accounting system employed by the City uses a personal computer based database program. The database keeps track of each loan by amount, borrower name, address, and date. Charge-Offs A loan is considered a charge-off if it has been deemed uncollectible. These may be loans that have been approved for partial repayment or no repayment according to this Chapter, or they may be loans deemed uncollectible because of the borrower's bankruptcy or death. In any event, the loan must be indicated as such in the database monitoring system and removed from the outstanding loan balance figures. Notice of a loan charge-off must be given to the City Treasury Department and to the City Accounting Department, with a copy to the City Attorney's Office. Partial Repayment Upon Sale or Refinance If a sale or refinance of a home generates insufficient funds to fully repay the rehabilitation plus accrued interest, the Director of Economic Community Development may approve a partial payment as payment in full. Notice of a partial repayment must be given to the City's Treasury Department and Accounting Department with a copy to the City Attorney's Office. The rehabilitation loan program does not allow refinancing with cash out. Loan Payoffs The City will generally receive a request for a payoff amount when repayment occurs as part of a property sale or mortgage refinance. The request will usually come in the form of a Request for Beneficiary's Demand from an escrow company, title insurance company, or financial institution. Due to potential errors and misunderstandings when discussing payoffs verbally, the City will provide a Payoff Demand only upon receipt of a written request. The City will communicate a Payoff Demand to the requester only in writing. A fee will be charged for any requested Payoff Demand. The fee is established by City ordinance. A "Payoffs in Progress" file will be maintained with all loan payoff correspondence and copies of loan payoff demands with regard to loans that are in the middle of the payoff process or a detailed list of loans in the payoff process indicating the current status of the loan with regard to payoff. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 27 1082 Responding to a Request for Beneficiary's Demand The following steps will be taken when the City has received a written request for a loan payoff demand: • Upon receipt of the payoff demand and the fee, retrieve the loan file and review the loan agreement for repayment requirements. Check the comment section of the database for extenuating or unique circumstances that may have been documented. • Prepare a demand letter describing the principal balance, interest rate, date of loan, current date, calculation of interest to the current date, a per day interest amount for the estimated payoff date and City demand fee and reconveyances/lien removal fee. • Attach a copy of the request for beneficiary's demand to the demand letter and send to the requesting party. Place a copy of the demand letter and the original request for beneficiary's demand in the loan file, • If the request for a demand is from a licensed escrow and/or title company, City staff will respond by processing a Deed of Reconveyance within 10 days after receiving full payoff of a loan. If the request is from any other representative of the borrower, the City will hold the reconveyance until payment is received in full and the payment check has been cleared through the bank. The original title and registration for a mobile_home and a signed Conditional Lien Release form will be sent to a licensed escrow company or title company, together with a payoff demand, provided that these documents were requested and are necessary to complete a pending sale transaction. Reconveying the Trust Deed After the City has received payment in full of "good" funds, the Deed Of Trust will be released as a lien against the property. ("Good" means funds that are drawn on a title company, escrow company, or financial institution. Funds drawn on a personal account must be cleared through the bank before reconveying the Deed Of Trust.) A Reconveyance of a trust deed will be prepared by City staff to be recorded (the document will note the borrower's name and current address). The document will be sent directly to the Office of the Orange County Clerk- Recorder or to the entity that provided the payoff funds; such as the title or escrow company for recordation. Upon receipt of the recorded Reconveyance document a copy of the recorded Reconveyance will be maintained in the closed loan file and the original Reconveyance will be sent to the borrower Defaults Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 28 1083 A borrower will be in default on the terms of the loan if he/she violates conditions of the loan agreement. These default issues can include the following: • Failure to occupy the home as the borrower's primary residence. • Selling or transferring the property by any means without prior approval of the City. • Allowing the rehabilitated building (interior and/or exterior) to fall into disrepair or be kept unclean, unsafe, or out of compliance with current City building codes. • Non-payment of other mortgages, taxes, insurance, or Home ew Owner association Association dues. • Allowing the rents or incomes of the tenants in duplexes, triplexes or fourplexes to exceed the affordability requirements established by this program. • Allowing the number of persons occupying a unit to exceed the standard limits established by HUD or any other terms in the Agreement, Promissory Note or Deed of Trust. • Any further encumbrance of the property without express written authorization by the Director of Economic Community Development. • Obtain a reverse mortgage agreement. • Violation of the terms of the Regulatory Agreement as applicable. Because of the time required to monitor these issues, the City will generally enforce only those defaults that come to the attention of staff through the on going management of the loan portfolio. For example, if the City becomes aware of a sale transaction because a new property insurance policy has been received indicating a new owner, the City would pursue and expect payment in full from the original borrower. To accomplish this, a demand letter would be sent to both the new owner and original borrower citing the sale of the property as an event of default. In such situations, at the discretion of the Director of Economic Community Development, the property owner will be given 30 days to remedy a default before filing a notice of default and proceeding with foreclosure. If the event of a default the City may change a prepayment penalty up the maximum amount permitted by law at the discretion of the Director of Economic Community Development. Subordination Subordinations to new first trust deed loans are not generally permitted. In the event a borrower determines that it would be in their best interest to refinance their existing first trust deed loan to lower the monthly payments, the City may consider subordination. However, the City has the right to decline a request to subordinate at its sole discretion. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 29 1084 The City will consider subordination of DPL's under the following circumstances: 1. Borrower will be refinancing their first mortgage at a reduced interest rate that results in a lower monthly mortgage payment. 2. Borrower will not be withdrawing or using any equity ("pulling out cash") for any reason. However, any fees associated with the refinance may be included in the new first mortgage. The City may not approve a subordination that involves the following: • Withdrawal of equity for any reason. • Subordination to a loan involving negative amortization. • Subordination to a variable rate mortgage loan or reverse mortgage loan. • Change of ownership, including adding new owners or co-signer(s) onto the loan or title. • The combined total of the new first mortgage loan and City's existing second mortgage loan exceeds 80% of the appraised value of the borrower's property. The City's loan will become immediately due and payable if the borrower at any time: (1) takes out any other loan against the property in lieu of subordinating the City's loan, OR (2) uses refinance proceeds to repay revolving or other debt. The City of Huntington Beach will consider subordination of rehabilitation loans if the Borrower will be refinancing their first mortgage at a reduced rate that results in a lower monthly mortgage payment. Fees associated with the refinance may be included in the new first mortgage. A service charge will be due to the City for processing the request. The City will not approve a subordination that involves the following: • Withdraw of equity for any reason. • Subordination to a loan involving negative amortization. • Subordination to a variable rate mortgage loan or reverse mortgage loan. • Change of ownership, including adding new owners or co-signer(s) on the loan or title. • The combined total of the new first mortgage loan and City's existing second mortgage loan exceeds 80% of the appraised value of the subject borrower's property. If the borrower takes out another loan again the property in lieu of subordinating the City's loan or uses refinance proceeds to repay revolving or other debt the loan will become immediately due and payable to the City. A Loan Subordination Policy and Application form is provided in Appendix V and a Loan Subordination Request form is provided in Appendix W. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 30 1085 Closing the Loan File After a loan has been paid in full and the corresponding Deed of Trust or mobilehome title has been reconveyed, the loan file will be closed. The Communitv Development Department will indicate, "Paid in Full" (or another notation if appropriate) on the exterior of the file folder, and the file will be stored in a separate area. The loan database will be updated as well as any file required for City year-end accounting and reconciliation. Closed files should be maintained for a period not less than five years after which the file can be destroyed but only according to the City's file destruction process. Processing Procedures Homeowner Rehabilitation Loans and Grants Program Page 31 1086 APPENDICIES (PROVIDED AS EXAMPLES ONLY) 1087 APPENDIX A Additional Loan Requirements for Duplexes, Triplexes and Fourplexes Multifamily Rehabilitation Loan Application 1088 Additional Loan Requirements for Duplexes, Triplexes, and Multi-Family Apartments Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) will be recorded against duplexes, triplexes, and fourplex apartments that receive rehabilitation loans or grants. The CC&Rs will reiterate the requirements of the Promissory Note and the following elements: Eligible Income Limits: 1) Rental property owners earning less than 80%of Area Median Income;or 2)Rental property owners with renter households earning less than 80% of Area Medium Income and owner agrees to restrict rents to 30% of income based on HUD guidelines, for 51%of the units. Rental Rehabilitation - Owner does not reside onsite: Income verification is required for Deferred Payment Loans. The property owner must verify that 51% of the rental units are occupied by tenant earning below 80% of Area Median Income. The property owner must show proof of ownership: Grant Deed, current Property Tax Bill and mortgage statement. Rental requirements: Owner must agree not to convert the rehabed units to condominiums over the re-payment period. In addition, rents in at least 51%of the units in each building must remain at affordable levels for the period of the loan. HUD guidelines require that rent may not be greater than 30% of gross income for households earning less than or equal to 80% of median income. The owner is required to submit annual certification of rental rates and tenant income to the Office of Business Development. Income Restricted(Affordable) Rental Units The property owner must restrict residency in the rental units to low-income households for the term of the City loan. The owner shall maintain records of income verification for all tenants. For the purposes of determining household income, all adult household members must be considered. Income must be verified at least annually by the owner. The tenant leases must specify that if a tenant's household gross income increases above the low income standard, that tenant must vacate the unit within 90 days. Should a tenant face extraordinary hardship satisfying this requirement, a written appeal may be submitted to the City. Upon receipt of a written appeal, and at the sole discretion of the Director of Economic DevelopmontDirector of Community Development, this period may be extended for a period not to exceed 90 additional days. 1089 Maximum Rents The maximum allowable rents will be determined by applying the most restrictive rent limits established on an annual basis by: 1) California Health and Safety Code Section 50053, or 2) the HUD HOME CDBG Program Guidelines. If the tenant is required to pay for utilities, excluding telephone, the utilities cost must be deducted from the defined affordable housing cost. The currently applicable affordable housing costs and utilities allowances are available in the Economic Community Development Department office in City Hall. Maximum Occupancy The maximum number of persons in a household that may occupy the units will be based on the Section 8 limits established by the Orange County Housing Authority. The allowable number is determined, in part, by the sex, age, and relationship of the tenants and the total amount of living space. The generally accepted standards are as follows: Occupancy Standards Unit Size Maximum Occupancy Studio 2 Persons 1 Bedroom 3 Persons 2 Bedrooms 5 Persons 3 Bedrooms 7 Persons 4 Bedrooms 9 Persons Temporary Relocation Assistance A.

Subordination to City CC&Rs The City will subordinate the rehabilitation loan to existing liens that meet the loan-to- value ratio requirements defined in this Program. The City may consider subordination of rehabilitation loans to future refinancing if the borrower will be refinancing their first mortgage at a reduced rate that results in a lower monthly mortgage payment. Fees associated with the refinance may be included in the new first mortgage. A$250-service charge will be due to the City for processing the request. The City will not approve a subordination that involves the following: • Withdraw of equity for any reason. • Subordination to a loan involving negative amortization. • Subordination to a variable rate mortgage loan. • Change of ownership, including adding new owners or co-signer(s) on the loan or title. • The combined total of the new first mortgage loan and City's existing second mortgage loan exceeds 80% of the appraised value of the subject borrower's property.

Homeowners help inspect their home and point out problems. 2. Homeowners,not the City,choose the contractors to bid on the proposed work. 3. Homeowners,not the City,hand out the work write-up list to contractors. 4. Homeowners,not the City,open&review bid proposals turned in by the contractors. 5. Homeowners,not the City,choose a contractor to perform work on their home. 6. Homeowners,not the City,sign home improvement contracts with vendors. 7. Homeowners request and approve payments made to their contractors. 8. Homeowners inspect and approve work performed by their contractors. 9. Homeowners work with contractor to settle disagreements during the job. 10. Homeowners call/write their contractors to ask them to correct problems covered by warranties during the first year after the job has been completed. Things Homeowners Should Think About Before Taking Out a Housing Rehabilitation Loan/Grant: 1. Not all the work that homeowners want done can always be done. 2. Repairs will correct one or two problems, but will probably not solve all problems. 3. Don't expect your house to be completely new when work is complete. 4. Don't expect all floors,wall,ceilings,doors,windows,and so on, in older houses to be completely plumb,level and square when work is complete. 5. A lot of times,homeowners will hire small construction companies because they are able to do more work for the money than larger, more expensive,construction firms. 6. Sometimes it can be stressful living in a house while a contractor is performing work. 7. Very few times in life is anyone completely satisfied with things they buy or have repaired. Buying a house or having a house repaired is no different. 8. Houses always need improvements. It would be a good idea for owners to save at least$25 a month to help cover the cost of future repairs and maintenance. 9. Finally,the City is not a contractor,does not recommend contractors,and cannot guarantee that homeowners will be satisfied with work done by their contractors.
