COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AND HOUSING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
At its regular meeting on April 16, 2014, by a vote of 5:0 (Sandoval absent), the Community
Redevelopment and Housing Commission recommended the action stated above.
DISCUSSION
Each year, the City of Santa Ana receives funding from various formula grant allocation programs
administered by the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These funds
provide valuable services to the community such as affordable and supportive housing,
community development programs, public services and economic opportunities. The programs
include Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnership Grant
(HOME), and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG).
Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS ( HOPWA) funds had been previously allocated to
the City of Santa Ana as the most populous city in the county to use throughout the County of
Orange to provide resources, supportive services and incentives for long -term comprehensive
strategies to meet the housing needs for persons with HIV /AIDS. This fiscal year the City of
Anaheim has been awarded the HOPWA funds. Due to the late notification, the City of Santa Ana
will contract with the City of Anaheim as an administrative agent to operate the HOPWA funds.
During Fiscal Year 2014 -2015, the City will receive the following allocations:

Every five years, the City must submit to HUD its Consolidated Plan. This is a five -year
comprehensive planning document and application for all of these programs. It describes a
strategy to meet the needs of the community and identifies resources and programs that can be
used to address them. In May of 2010, the Five Year Plan for the period of July 1, 2010 to June
30, 2015 was submitted to HUD. As part of this on -going process, the City is required to submit
an Annual Update to the Consolidated Plan. This document establishes a one -year investment
plan that outlines the intended use of resources in the forthcoming fiscal year. The proposed
Annual Update covers the 2014 -15 fiscal year. It reaffirms the established policy of allocating
funding in neighborhoods where programs and resources would have a maximum impact.
HUD regulations require that the draft Annual Update be made available for a 30 -day public
review and comment period. On March 16, 2014, notification was published in the Orange
County Register that the draft plan was available for review beginning March 16, 2014, and that
the public hearing would be held on April 16, 2014. It was also noticed in La Opinion and Nguoi
Viet as well as on the City's website. The 30 -day public comment period concluded on April 16,
2014. In accordance with federal regulations, all neighboring jurisdictions were also informed of
the draft's availability for review. All comments received, including all funding recommendations
made by the City Council on May 6, 2014, will be included in the final document, which is due to
HUD no later than May 15, 2014.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.
