EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires all entitlement communities receiving Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, such as the City of Temecula, to prepare and submit a Consolidated Plan every five years to establish a unified, strategic vision for community development, housing and economic development actions. The Consolidated Plan encompasses the analysis of local community needs and coordinates appropriate responses to those needs and priorities. The Temecula City Council adopted its first Five Year Consolidated Plan for Fiscal years 2012-16 on April 26, 2012 and its last Action Plan of that cycle (2016-17 Annual Action Plan) on April 26, 2016. The Temecula City Council adopted its Second Five -Year Consolidated Plan for Fiscal Years 2017-2021 and the Action Plan for 2017-18 on April 25, 2017. The Temecula City Council adopted the 2019-20 Action Plan April 23, 2019. The Consolidated Plan is carried out through Annual Action Plans, which provide a concise summary of the actions, activities, and the specific federal and non-federal resources that will be used each year to address the priority needs and specific goals identified by the Consolidated Plan. Per the City's Citizen Participation Plan, a Substantial Amendment to an Annual Action Plan is required when a "substantial" change is proposed, which includes: • A CDBG activity budget will increase by $50,000 or 25% of the project's original budget; or • The City proposes to add or delete an activity, except if an applicant requests that their activity be terminated. The Substantial Amendment to the 2019-2020 Action Plan is necessary because the City is proposing to delete an activity and transfer the funds to existing projects in excess of 25% of the project's original budget as described in Section C. This Substantial Amendment also involves amending the 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 Action Plans. B. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION A Notice of Public Hearing and the commencement of the 30-day public review period was published in the newspaper on August 25, 2019, informing the public of the proposed Substantial Amendment and inviting comments at the public hearing. The public review period begins on August 25, 2019 and ends September 24, 2019. Citizens were able to review copies of the Draft Substantial Amendment at the Ronald H. Roberts Temecula Public Library, Temecula City Hall and on the City's website at https://temeculaca.gov/430/Citizen- Participation. On September 24, 2019, the Temecula City Council will hear public comments regarding the Substantial Amendment. C.
