The City has incorporated <br />outcome measurement requirements into contracts with all sub-grantees and grantee- <br />funded activities. Finally, the City has utilized a portion of HUD's Consolidated Plan <br />Management Program (CPMP) tool to prepare the 2013-2014 Action Plan. <br />HUD regulations also require that the City prepare an executive summary for each Action <br />Plan that not only summarizes how the City will utilize HUD funds for 2013-2014, but also <br />reviews prior year accomplishments. Since the 2012-2013 Fiscal Year was the only partially <br />complete, no program/project information for this year has been reported in this plan. In <br />subsequent years, a more complete executive summary will be incorporated into each <br />Annual Plan. <br />The City of Santa Ana is a recipient of four significant grants from the U.S. Department of <br />Housing and Urban Development (HUD); these grants and the amount the City anticipates it <br />will receive are listed below (see TABLE 1): <br />2 DRAFT 04/22/2013 <br />29A-7
