CITY OF SANTA ANA 2006-2007 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN are limited to the City's Low-and Moderate-Income area, which encompasses the majority of the City's residential areas. Areas of the City outside of the Low- and Moderate-Income target areas will benefit from activities that are limited-clientele in nature, i.e., a person/household can benefit from a federally assisted program provided they meet the program's eligibility criteria. Eligibility is typically established by household income and household size. In July 2003, HUD notified the City of Santa Ana that it had been selected to be exempt from the cap on Low- and Moderate-Income levels currently applied to the CDBG and HOME programs. Traditionally, HUD has capped the 80% income level to an amount lower than the true 80% of the area's median income. Utilization of the uncapped 80% income level theoretically allows more households to qualify for CDSG and HOME funded activities. The City of Santa Ana has chosen to utilize the uncapped 80% income standard for both its limited clientele and area-wide activities. Table 4 provides a listing of HUO's "capped" 2006 income standard for Orange County. "Uncapped" 2006 income figures have not been released by HUO at this time; however, based on a preliminary evaluation, the uncapped income standard will be lower than HUD's "capped" standard - the City will revise these figures as soon as they are released by HUO.
