Amendment Considerations <br />The City shall substantially amend the Consolidated Plan if a "substantial change" <br />is proposed by City staff or the City Council. For the purpose of the Consolidated <br />Plan, a "substantial change" is defined as: <br />• More than 30 percent of the most recent annual federal grant allocation is <br />reallocated to other eligible program activities within the fiscal year. <br />(Amended amounts will not be cumulative, that is, each amendment will <br />stand on its own for purposes of determining the 30 percent threshold.) <br />• An activity is undertaken that was not previously included in the <br />Consolidated Plan or subsequent annual plans <br />The City may make minor changes to the Consolidated Plan, as needed, so long <br />as the changes do not constitute a substantial amendment as described above. <br />Changes to numeric accomplishment goals within an existing Strategic Plan goal <br />shall not constitute a substantial amendment. Such minor changes to the <br />Consolidated Plan do not require a public review and comment period or a public <br />hearing. <br />City of Santa Ana <br />Citizen Participation Plan I April 2020 <br />Page 8 <br />75B-29 <br />
