From October 15, 2009 to January 15, 2010, the Consolidated Plan and the survey were presented at numerous neighborhood association meetings, and laptops were available to enable residents to enter their survey responses online. Over 1,500 responses were received and used to identify resident and stakeholder priorities among needs that can be addressed with the City's federal grant funds. The proposed priorities are organized into five different goals relating to owner-occupied and renter-occupied housing needs, homeless needs, special needs populations, and community needs consistent with HUD guidelines. The objectives and strategies identified respond to those needs. The Consolidated Plan also includes the first of five Annual Action Plans that will be prepared during the five-year period covered by the Plan. The Annual Action Plan describes the intended use of the entitlement grants for fiscal year 2010-11. HUD regulations require that residents and other stakeholders have the opportunity to comment on the proposed Consolidated Plan, and that their comments be given consideration in preparation of the final document. On March 22 and April 5, 2010, notification was published in the Orange County Register indicating that the draft Consolidated Plan was available for review and that the public comment period ended on April 20, 2010. The notification was also published in the Nguoi Viet and La Opinion. All comments received will be included in the final document submitted to HUD.
