COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION ACTION At its regular meeting on October 27, 2021, the Community Development Commission recommended that the City Council approve the nonprofit Community Development Block Grant application and scoring criteria for Fiscal Years 2022 – 2024. DISCUSSION As an entitlement jurisdiction, the City receives an annual allocation of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to improve low- to moderate-income neighborhoods, eliminate blight, and encourage economic development. These funds are used for a diverse range of programs as outlined in the City’s Consolidated Plan, including affordable housing, street improvements, park and public facilities improvements, small business start-up grants, code enforcement, and public services. The City may use a maximum of 15 percent of each annual allocation to fund public service programs, such as those concerned with employment, crime prevention, childcare, health, drug abuse, education, fair housing counseling, energy conservation, welfare, homebuyer down payment assistance, and recreational needs. The City of Santa Ana’s Community Development Agency allocates these CDBG grant funds to nonprofit organizations through a transparent, competitive process for projects and programs that most effectively serve our residents. The City’s CDBG allocation for Fiscal Year (FY) 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 is estimated to be $5,640,635 each year, assuming the City receives the same allocation as FY 2021- Nonprofit CDBG Application for Fiscal Years 2022 – 2024 November 2, 2021 Page 2 2 1 9 4 2023. The City may use a maximum of fifteen percent of this allocation (or $846,095) each year for public service programs provided by nonprofit organizations. On November 3, 2021, staff will seek to release the application for nonprofits to apply for the estimated $1,692,190 in nonprofit CDBG funding for a two-year period for Fiscal Years 2022-2024. This amount includes $846,095 in CDBG funding for FY 2022-2023 and $846,095 for FY 2023-2024. This amount is subject to adjustment based upon the actual CDBG allocation from HUD following approval of the federal budget. Funding will be available to experienced nonprofit organizations for the provision of public services that include a priority on crime prevention, crisis-intervention, and/or suppression efforts for children, youth and/or families. Priority funding will be awarded to programs that encompass any of the following: Develop crime prevention and suppression programs that assist in the development of suitable living environments by targeting specific Santa Ana neighborhoods that have a long-standing history of crime involving children, youth and families. For example, crime prevention education programs or community- oriented policing programs such as establishing a neighborhood watch program. Develop programs that target victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault or stalking. Services that will benefit children (generally under age 13), including parenting skills classes. Health services – services addressing the physical health needs of residents. Mental health services – services addressing the mental health needs of residents. Youth services – services during and after school programs that target teens (ages 13 to 19) that include recreational programs with a counseling/mentorship program that addresses healthy lifestyles, substance abuse prevention, crime prevention, dating violence and anti-bullying. Programs with current Memorandum of Understandings with Santa Ana Unified School District will have priority over other youth service programs. Legal services that provide legal aid to low- and moderate-income residents. Senior services for the elderly 62+ years. Proposed programs are required to meet the National Objective of an activity that provides a benefit to low- and moderate-income persons. Nonprofit organizations will have the option of submitting a joint application with other nonprofit organizations to encourage collaboration and nonduplication of public services in our community. Organizations will be able to apply individually for a minimum of $60,000 or a maximum of $150,000 per program for the two-year period. Organizations that submit a joint application may request a maximum of $300,000. Applications will be made available online through the City’s Community Development Agency webpage and the PlanetBids grant management system. Staff will be available to assist nonprofits with technical support throughout the application process.

Copy of City of Santa Ana Community Development Block Grant FY 2022- 2024 (Nonprofit Application) 1 City of San ta Ana Community Develop ment Block Grant Biennial Public Service Nonprofit Application DESCRIPTION OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) is a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) entitlement grant that the City receives on an annual basis to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment, and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for low- and moderate- income persons. No more than 15% of the City’s CDBG grant funds may be used for the provision of public services (including labor, supplies, and materials) including but not limited to those concerned with employment, crime prevention, child care, health, drug abuse, education, fair housing counseling, energy conservation, welfare (but excluding the provision of income payments), homebuyer down payment assistance, or recreational needs. To be eligible for CDBG assistance, a public service must be either a new service or a quantifiable increase in the level of an existing service above that which has been provided by or on behalf of the City in the previous 12 calendar months. The City of Santa Ana Community Development Agency allocates these CDBG grant funds to nonprofit organizations through a transparent, competitive process for projects and programs that most effectively serve the residents of the City. Interested and eligible organizations can apply on a biennial basis for this funding via the CDBG Biennial Public Service Nonprofit Application.

Programs with current Memorandum of Understandings with Santa Ana Unified School District will have priority over other youth service programs; Legal services that provide legal aid to low – and moderate income residents; Senior services for the elderly 62+ years.

However, organizations that submit a joint application may request a maximum of $200,000 per program. Set-Aside Funding One percent (1%) of the City’s CDBG public service allocation may be set-aside to fund qualified non-profits who apply for funding to screen and test for lead poisoning in our community. Organization Requirement The purpose of this NOFA is to review, compare and evaluate organizations that want to partner with the City to implement CDBG-funded projects, activities, and programs. The City will review your application together with a panel of appointed officials on the Community Development Commission to determine if your organization: Has the programmatic capacity to successfully design, implement, and report on a CDBG-funded project per the requirements of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the City; Has the fiscal capacity to accept, manage, and report on CDBG funds on a reimbursement basis in accordance with HUD and City requirements; Demonstrates a solid track record and past experience in implementing similar activities and projects that are indicative of potential future success; Implements proper controls and best management practices to ensure fair and ethical dealings in the areas of finance and accounting, procurement, and client and vendor grievances; Implements eligible activities and projects that may be funded by CDBG; Has adopted a mission statement, goals, and objectives that closely align with those of the City (as expressed in its Consolidated Plan) and of HUD ; Nonprofit organizations must be in good standing and have no outstanding monitoring findings prior to a FY 2022-2024 CDBG award. All nonprofit applicants must be able to document 501(c)(3) status. Applicants whose status is pending at the time of application will not be considered for funding. Nonprofit Organization Collaboration Nonprofit organizations may submit a joint application with other nonprofit organizations. Collaborating nonprofit organizations must meet all the application requirements. EXHIBIT 1 Copy of City of Santa Ana Community Development Block Grant FY 2022- 2024 (Nonprofit Application) 3 Faith-Based Organizations Organizations that are religious or faith-based are eligible, on the same basis as any other organization, to participate in the CDBG program. Organizations may not engage in inherently religious activities, such as worship, religious instruction, or proselytization, as a part of the programs or services funded with CDBG funds. If the organization conducts su ch activities, the activities must be offered separately, in time or location, from the programs or services funded with CDBG funds, and participation must be voluntary for the beneficiaries of the CDBG -funded programs or services. Faith-based organizations may use space in their facilities to provide CDBG-funded services without removing religious art, icons, scriptures or other religious symbols. An organization that participates in the CDBG program shall not, in providing program assistance, discriminate against a program beneficiary or prospective program beneficiary on the basis of religion or religious belief. A religious organization’s exemption from the federal prohibition on employment discrimination based on religion, set forth in section 702(a) of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is not forfeited when the organization participates in the CDBG program. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nondiscrimination requirements imposed by statute on all CDBG grantees shall apply to religious and faith-based organizations Cost Reimbursement Agreement Grants are provided through a Cost Reimbursement Subrecipient Agreement. Reimbursement requests are allowed on a quarterly basis. Therefore, organizations must have enough working capital to continue services until a reimbursement request can be processed by the City. Only allowable and allocable CDBG expenses will be reimbursed. The term of the agreement will be July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2024. Insurance Requirement Organizations approved for CDBG funding will be required to obtain a minimum of $1,000,000 general liability insurance, automobile Insurance not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, and workers’ compensation insurance not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, for the term of the agreement. In addition, the City must be listed as additionally insured via an endorsement with the endorsement stating that the insurance is primary and noncontributory. Eligible Activities Requirement Public service activities which are directed toward the improvement of the quantity and quality of community services principally benefiting persons of low- and moderate-income are eligible for funding. These activities include, but are not limited to, services concerned with employment, crime prevention, childcare, health, substance abuse counseling and treatment, education, fair housing counseling, energy conservation, welfare (excluding income payments) and recreational needs. Emergency grant payments for food, clothing, and shelter (rent, mortgage, utilities) needs are eligible activities as long as the payments do not exceed three months and the payments are made directly to the provider of such services on behalf of an individual or family. The services funded must be either a new service or a quantifiable increase in the level of service above that which has been provided by or on behalf of the City in the previous 12 EXHIBIT 1 Copy of City of Santa Ana Community Development Block Grant FY 2022- 2024 (Nonprofit Application) 4 calendar months. Services that were originally funded as a new or increased level of service are eligible for continued funding. Eligible costs include labor, materials, supplies, some operating and maintenance costs for the portion of the facility in which the public service is located, and equipment neces sary for the provision of the public service. Ineligible costs include income payments, assistance for buildings used for the general conduct of government, general local government expenses, political and religious activities, and the purchase of equipment except equipment that constitutes all or part of a public service. Income payments are payments made to an individual or family to provide basic levels of food, shelter, or clothing but do not include emergency grant payments referenced above under elig ible activities. National Objective Requirement The proposed program must meet the National Objective of activities that provide a benefit to low- and moderate-income persons. At a minimum, the program must serve 51% low- and moderate- income persons. Low- and moderate-income is defined as having an income equal to or less than 80 percent of the area median income, adjusted for household size. The specific household income limits are based on U.S. Census Bureau estimates, updated and issued by HUD annually http://www.huduser.org/portal/datasets/il.html. In general, to document compliance with the national objective requirement, funded programs will require the collection, calculation, and documentation of the participants’ family size and income. Limited Clientele activity: This is the category most often used for public service activities. Limited clientele activities are activities limited to a specific group of persons. At least 51 percent of those served must be low- and moderate-income persons. Services qualifying under this category serve a specific clientele, rather than providing service to all persons in a geographic area. Limited clientele activities may qualify as either a presumed benefit activity or a direct benefit activity. A presumed benefit activity is one that exclusively serves a specific group of people that HUD categorically considers low and moderate-income persons. These categories include: abused children, battered spouses, elderly persons, homeless persons, illiterate adults, persons living with AIDS, migrant farm workers, and severely disabled adults as defined by the Bureau of Census. The project sponsor must document that the activity is designed to be used exclusively by a category of persons presumed by HUD to be low- and moderate-income. If the clientele served does not fall under one of the presumed benefit category of persons, it may qualify as a direct benefit activity which serves low- and moderate-income persons. The project sponsor must verify and maintain documentation regarding the family size and income of each person served. At least 51 percent of the clientele served must be low - and moderate- income persons or the activity funded must be limited exclusively to low- and moderate-income persons. The nature and location of the activity may also support a conclusion that primarily low- and moderate-income persons are served. To qualify under this definition, the service provided must be both of such nature and in such location that it may reasonably be concluded EXHIBIT 1 Copy of City of Santa Ana Community Development Block Grant FY 2022- 2024 (Nonprofit Application) 5 that the activity’s clientele will primarily be low- and moderate-income persons. City of Santa Ana Consolidated Plan Priority Need Requirement Applications for fiscal year 2022-2024 must meet a FY 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan priority need.
