Introduction On April 26, 2022, the City Council of the City of Temecula adopted its Five-Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) 2022-2026 Consolidated Plan. The Consolidated Plan describes the City’s housing and community development needs, as well as strategies and activities to address those needs over a five-year period using entitlement grant funds provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The 2023-2024 Action Plan, which covers July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2024, represents the second year in that five-year plan. The City’s grant program is consistent with HUD’s national strategy to provide decent housing opportunities, a suitable living environment and economic opportunities particularly for low- and moderate-income persons. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 created the CDBG Program. The primary objective of the CDBG Program is the development of viable urban communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons of low- and moderate-income. CDBG regulations require that each activity meet one of the following national objectives: • Benefit low- and moderate-income persons; • Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums and blight; or • Meet other community development needs having a particular urgency. Each year, the City certifies with the submission of its Annual Action Plan that it has given maximum feasible priority to activities, which meet the first objective above. Additionally, the City certifies that no less than 70 percent of the CDBG funds received, over a three -year certification period, will be designed to benefit low- and moderate-income persons. For Program Year 2023-2024, 100 percent of the CDBG activities primarily benefit low- and moderate-income persons. 2023-2024 Program Year Funding The City has been granted $594,271 in Community Development Block Grant funds in Fiscal Year 2023-2024. Coupled with an availability of $27,586 from previously closed out programs, the City will have a total of $621,857 to spend during program year 2023-2024. The proposed breakdown of those funds can be found in the following sections. 2 2023-2024 CDBG Program Public Service Activities Assistance League of Temecula Valley – Operation School Bell Program $7,236 Boys and Girls Club Before and After School Care for Kids $7,236 City of Temecula Homeless Prevention & Diversion Program $15,626 Community Mission of Hope – Food and Housing Program $7,236 Fair Housing of Riverside County – Comprehensive Fair Housing Program $15,626 Habitat for Humanity – Path to Homeownership & Financial Wellness $7,236 Hospice of the Valleys – Senior Assistance Program $7,236 Riverside Area Rape Crisis Center – Crisis Intervention & Support Services $7,236 Safe Family Justice Center – Temecula SAFE & Healthy Families Program $7,236 Voices For Children – CASA Program $7,236 Capital Improvement Activities Temecula Public Works Dept. ADA Compliance Program $413,863 Program Administration City of Temecula: Administration $118,854 Total $621,857 If additional funds become available during the program year from unanticipated increases in appropriations, savings from completed projects or dropped projects, City staff will increase the funding of the Capital Improvement Activities included in the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan. No substantial amendments will be required for such an action . 2. Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan Needs Assessment Overview HUD’s Community Planning and Development (CPD) Outcome Performance Measurement Framework classifies objectives in three categories: decent housing, a suitable living environment, and economic opportunity. Based on the Needs Assessment and Market Analysis, the Strategic Plan within the Consolidated Plan identifies five high priority needs to be addressed through the implementation of activities aligned with six Strategic Plan goals. The high priority needs and program objectives for the City of Temecula are: • Improve neighborhoods, public facilities, and infrastructure • Preserve the existing housing stock • Provide public services for low- and moderate-income, special needs, seniors, and veteran residents. 3 • Provide public services for the homeless and those at risk of homelessness • Promote development of affordable housing The following six goals are identified in the Strategic Plan: • Public Facilities & Infrastructure Improvements • Affordable Housing Development • Housing Preservation • Services for Low-and moderate income residents • Services for residents with special needs, including seniors and veterans • Services for the homeless and those at risk of homelessness 4 Table 1 - Strategic Plan Summary Goal Name Time Period Category Geographic Area Needs Addressed Funding Goal Outcome Indicator 1.

Housing Preservation 2022- 2026 Affordable Housing Citywide Preserve exiting housing stock CDBG: Homeowner housing rehabbed 30 households Description: Preservation of the quality of existing affordable housing stock occupied by low- and moderate-income households, renters, and owners. 3.

The City anticipated averaging approximately one accessibility activity a year. 7. Administration 2022- 2026 N/A Citywide N/A CDBG: N/A 6 Goal Name Time Period Category Geographic Area Needs Addressed Funding Goal Outcome Indicator Description: Provide for the timely and compliant administration of the CDBG programs in accordance with HUD policy and federal regulations. HUD requires the City to represent Administration funds as a “goal” within the Strategic Plan so that the sources of funds (refer to Section SP-35) are fully allocated to goals 3. Evaluation of past performance The investment of HUD resources during the 2017-2021 Program Years resulted in measurable accomplishments that contributed to positive outcomes for Temecula residents. Together with other federal, state, and local investments, HUD resources allowed the City of Temecula and its partners to: • Promote the development of affordable housing • Preserve the existing housing stock • Ensure equal access to housing opportunities • Provide public services for low- and moderate-income residents • Provide public services for residents with special needs • Provide public services for the homeless and those at risk of homelessness • Provide public services for seniors and veterans • Improve neighborhoods, public facilities, and infrastructure • Promote economic opportunity While the City and its partners were able to successfully implement the activities listed above since July 2017, there are insufficient resources to fully address the level of need identified in the last Consolidated Plan. In June 2011, the State of California passed AB1X2 to eliminate Redevelopment Agencies—a substantial funding source for housing, community, and economic development programs in California—significantly curtailed the City’s ability to implement activities that benefit low- and moderate-income residents. With that, the City of Temecula takes its yearly allocation of CDBG funds and works closely with stakeholders, subrecipients and their programs to make sure their funds are allocated purposefully and meaningfully to impact Temecula residents with quality and meaningful services. 4. Summary of citizen participation process and consultation process The City adopted a Citizen Participation Plan on April 26, 2022, that reflects regulatory changes and process improvements. The adopted Citizen Participation Plan addressed HUD regulations pertaining to the Assessment of Fair Housing requirements for a more robust citizen involvement process. 7 During the 2022-2026 Consolidated Plan preparation process, the City broadened its citizen participation through surveys, community meetings and public hearings. During the preparation of the 2022-2026 Consolidated Plan preparation process, the City made efforts to encourage the participation of minorities and non-English speaking persons, as well as persons with disabilities. The consultation process included representatives of the CoC, PHA, and other specified groups who completed surveys, provided local data, and assisted the City to ensure practical coordination of strategies to maximize impact and to avoid duplication of effort. This broadened process has continued with each Action Plan. On December 1, 2022, the City conducted two in-person technical workshops for agencies interested in applying for CDBG funds. On February 14, 2023, the City’s Finance Committee conducted a public meeting to prepare a CDBG funding recommendation to the City Council. The City published a notice in the local newspaper, which has a general circulation within the City , that the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan is available for public review and comment. A public hearing was held on April 25, 2023. The stakeholders, who were notified for each hearing, are included in Section AP-10 of this Action Plan. 5. Summary of public comments In the development of the Action Plan, the City solicited applications from City Departments, the local fair housing agency, and the public services agencies. The draft Action Plan was available for public review and comment from March 27, 2023, to April 25, 2023. The City Council convened a public hearing on April 25, 2023, to receive comments on the Action Plan. (Insert any comments received) A summary of public comments can be found in Table 5 and Appendix B. 6. Summary of comments or views not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them There were no comments or views that were not accepted. 7. Summary As the second Annual Action Plan of the City’s Five-Year Consolidated Plan Cycle, the City continues to make tremendous progress in meeting the five goals identified in the 2022-2026 Consolidated Plan. The 2023-2024 Action Plan will address all six of the Strategic Plan Goals from the 2022-2026 Consolidated Plan by allocating $621,857 of CDBG funds to projects and activities to be implemented from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024. The City of Temecula has made progress on increasing the supply of affordable housing. Two projects are currently under construction: 8 • Las Haciendas – 77 units • Rancho Las Bolsas -55 units. One project recently received additional funding from the City to make the project more competitive for tax credits: Vine Creek – 60 units And finally, the City is currently in negotiations on another project: Habitat for Humanity – 6 units. The City is continuing negotiations with other developers to utilize the remaining Tax Allocation Bond proceeds. 9 The Process PR-05 Lead & Responsible Agencies 24 CFR 91.200(b) 1.

Introduction In preparing the Consolidated Plan, the City of Temecula consulted with representatives from multiple agencies, groups, and organizations involved in the development of affordable housing, creation of job opportunities for low- and moderate-income residents, and the provision of services to children, seniors, persons with special needs, persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, and homeless persons. To facilitate this consultation, the City solicited feedback through the following methods: • Stakeholder surveys (web-based and paper-surveys) • Individual stakeholder consultations • Community meetings • Public hearings • Receipt of written comments To gather the greatest depth of information, the City consulted with a wide variety of agencies, groups and organizations concerning the housing, community, and economic development needs of the community. The primary agencies, groups or organizations consulted can be found on the following pages. The input received from these consultation partners helped establish the objectives and goals described in the Strategic Plan. Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction’s activities to enhance coordination between public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health, and service agencies (91.215(I)). The City recognizes the importance of coordination and alignment among various service providers to maximize the effectiveness of the CDBG program. As a result, during the development of the Consolidated Plan, the City consulted closely with organizations that provide assisted and public housing, health services and other community-focused programs. Outreach efforts included surveys including specific questions associated with coordination, invitations to community meetings and follow-up in-person interviews where appropriate. The City further recognized the importance of continued coordination and alignment during the preparation of the 2023-2024 Action Plan with these organizations and agencies. The City continues strengthening relationships and alignment among these organizations in the implementation of the NOFA process for CDBG funds and through technical assistance provided to subrecipients of CDBG funds each year. The City monitors its affordable housing units every year to ensure compliance with State and Federal requirements, supports the Housing 11 Authority’s Section 8 program and participates in the County’s Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) program. Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness. The Continuum of Care of Riverside County (CoC) guides the development of homeless strategies and the implementation of programs to end homelessness throughout the region. The CoC is comprised of a network of public, private, faith-based, for-profit, and nonprofit service providers who utilize several federal, state, and local resources in providing services for homeless persons. The County and its cities, including the City of Temecula, also provide resources for services that assist the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless. The nonprofit and faith-based community plays a key role in the current CoC system. Hundreds of agencies throughout the County, including the City Departments, provide a variety of programs ranging from feeding the homeless on the street to creating permanent supportive housing opportunities. These services are available to the chronically homeless, homeless families with children as well as single men and women. The nonprofit and faith-based community also serves special needs populations, such as victims of domestic violence, veterans, persons with disabilities and unaccompanied youth. During the Five-Year Consolidated Planning process, the City provided a detailed questionnaire to the CoC to identify the CoC’s perceived needs in the County and its objectives to address the needs of different homeless populations, specifically chronically homeless families and individuals, families with children, veterans, unaccompanied youth, and persons at risk of homelessness. Following the delivery and response to this questionnaire, the City followed up with the CoC to clarify existing needs and objectives and understand opportunities for collaboration and coordination during the five-year planning process. Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards and evaluate outcomes, and develop funding, policies, and procedures for the administration of HMIS. The City is not a direct recipient of ESG funding. However, it is a participating jurisdiction in the COC and works closely with the homeless system to create funding policies and procedures for ESG.

Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal-setting In preparation for the Consolidated Plan the City followed the established processes of the Citizen Participation Plan to ensure broad community engagement. At each step, the City worked to ensure low- and moderate-income residents, members of minority groups, agencies involved in the provision of services to these populations, and others who are directly impacted by the programs and activities supported by the Consolidated Plan programs had the opportunity to be actively involved. The Citizen Participation Plan, Consolidated Plan, Action Plan, Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) and the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice are posted on the City website at: https://TemeculaCA.gov/CDBG and a hard copy was available for review in the City Community Development Department for 30 days from March 28 to April 26, 2022. To assist in identification of priority needs citizens were engaged through community meetings, surveys, public hearings, and individual meetings. Participants received extensive information about the Consolidated Plan, citizen participation process, HUD requirements for an entitlement City, the amount of funding the City anticipates receiving and how those funds can be u sed by the City. Residents were given the opportunity to provide City staff with their input on the prioritization of community needs. Each of these efforts, including review of HUD Data and relevant policy documents, assisted the City in its goal setting efforts. On December 1, 2022, two virtual community workshops, convened to discuss housing, community and economic development needs and priorities along with request for funding requirements for Temecula. These workshops were interactive, with discussion of a variety of needs. A concerted effort was made to reach out to nonprofit organizations through the community workshops and consultations with area nonprofits and other organizations serving Temecula residents. On February 14, 2023, the City of Temecula Finance Subcommittee conducted a public meeting to consider the CDBG funding recommendations for Fiscal Year 2023-2024. The Finance Subcommittee performs in an advisory capacity to City staff and to the City Council concerning planning, implementing, and assessing CDBG programs and activities. After reviewing all submitted applications, the Finance Committee made their funding recommendation. On March 17, 2023, the City published a notice in the Press Enterprise providing the public a 30- day notice to review and comment on the draft 2023-2024 Action Plan.

The actual resources available to support activities during the implementation of the remainder of the Consolidated Plan may vary significantly due to factors outside of the City’s control. For example, HUD formula grant allocations are subject to change each year based on several factors, such as the amount of the national appropriation, changes in ACS population data applied to the CPD grant formulas, statutory changes to the CPD grant formulas, the addition or removal of entitlements receiving a particular CPD grant and the availability of reallocated funds. Additionally, state, local, and private resources will vary significantly depending on economic conditions. For Program Year 2023-2024, the City will receive $594,271 of CDBG funds from HUD. Coupled with an availability of $27,586 from previously closed out programs, the City will have a total of $621,857 to spend during program year 2023-2024. If additional funds become available during the program year from unanticipated increases in appropriations, savings from completed projects or dropped projects, City staff will increase the funding of the Capital Improvement Activities included in the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan. No substantial amendments will be required for such an action. 53 Table 6 - Expected Resources – Priority Table Program Source of Funds Uses of Funds Expected Amount Available Year 1 Expected Amount Available Reminder of Con Plan $ Narrative Description Annual Allocation: $ Program Income: $ Prior Year Resources: $ Total: $ CDBG Public- federal Admin and Planning Economic Development Housing Public Improvements Public Services $594,271 $0 $27,586 $621,857 $2,128,143 Based on level funding in subsequent years Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state, and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied Depending on the financing structure of a given activity, it may be advantageous fo r the City to use CDBG funds to leverage appropriate state, local, and private resources, including but not limited to those listed below.

This negatively affected affordable housing and residential investment. While there are mechanisms whereby certain affordable housing assets tied to the former Redevelopment Agencies may be utilized today, the available resources for affordable housing are scarce. The City has selected the developments that will receive a portion of the $12.4 million in Tax Allocation Bond proceeds to construct affordable housing in the City for low - and moderate- income persons. The future developments include the Las Haciendas Complex and Vine Creek apartments located within the City. Any additional land or property necessary to address the needs identified in the Consolidated Plan would need to be acquired using HUD grant funds or other resources. The City of Temecula has made progress on increasing the supply of affordable housing. It has done so by, adopting an Affordable Housing Overlay Zone ordinance as an incentive for the construction of affordable housing by the private sector. Additional progress includes two projects that are currently under construction, Las Haciendas with 77 units and Rancho Las Bolsas with 55 units. One project that recently received additional funding from the City to make the project more competitive for tax credits, that project being Vine Creek with 60 units. Lastly, the 55 City is currently in negotiations on an additional 6 units through Habitat for Humanity. Discussion The City plans to spend $503,003 of CDBG funds on housing, community development, public facilities, infrastructure, and neighborhood services activities that promote a suitable living environment between July 2023 and June 2024. It is anticipated approximately $413,863 of this will be spent on public facilities, infrastructure, and housing rehab projects and that $89,140 will be spent on neighborhood services. Projects include: • Before and after school programming, • Homeless services, • Housing ownership and financial wellness services, and • ADA modifications. Assuming the continued funding level of the CDBG program, the City may allocate CDBG funds for economic opportunity activities to support the development and expansion of local small businesses during this next Consolidated Planning cycle through its Office of Economic Development with its microenterprise assistance program. 56 AP-20 Annual Goals and Objectives Goal Name Time Period Category Geographic Area Needs Addressed Funding Goal Outcome Indicator 1.

Together, these projects will address the housing, community, and economic development needs of Temecula residents, particularly those residents residing in the low - and moderate-income CDBG Target Areas. # Project Name 1 Affordable Housing Development 2 Housing Preservation 3 Services for Low- and Moderate-Income Residents 4 Services for Residents with Special Needs including seniors and veterans 5 Services for the homeless and those at risk of homelessness 6 Public Facilities and Infrastructure Improvements 7 Program Administration Table 8 – Project Information Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved needs Based on the Strategic Plan, the City is allocating 100 percent of its non -administrative CDBG investments for program year 2023-2024 to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate-income people. The City’s CDBG investments in public facilities and infrastructure improvements activities are directed toward addressing the needs of persons with disabilities. 61 For that reason, the program is not limited to CDBG target areas. The housing and public services activities will also be primarily benefiting low- and moderate-income limited clientele on a citywide basis to better address the needs of the underserved. The primary obstacles to meeting the underserved needs of low - and moderate-income people include lack of funding from federal, state, and other local sources, the high cost of housing, and the lack of availability of home improvement financing in the private lending industry. To address these obstacles, the City is investing CDBG funds through the 2023-2024 Action Plan in projects that provide financial wellness services for first-time homebuyers, public and neighborhood services to seniors, veterans, persons in foster care, the homeless and other low- and moderate- income people and those with special needs. The City of Temecula has made progress on increasing the supply of affordable housing. It has done so by, adopting an Affordable Housing Overlay Zone ordinance as an incentive for the construction of affordable housing by the private sector.

Planned Activities City of Temecula: CDBG Administration $118,854 69 AP-50 Geographic Distribution – 91.220(f) Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low -income and minority concentration) where assistance will be directed The City of Temecula is located along Interstate 15 (I-15) in southwestern Riverside County, just north of the San Diego County line. The City of Temecula will use CDBG funds to address the needs of the 7,805 persons with disabilities in the City by removing architectural barriers in City-owned public improvements and facilities. This will be done by addressing the ADA components and priorities identified in the City’s Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan. The City of Temecula is an exception community under the CDBG Program with only three census tracts where at least 51 percent of the residents are of low and moderate income. These scattered tracts (CT 432, 496, 505, 512) are located where there are existing apartment complexes. See Appendix D for a map identifying census tracts with greatest number of low- and moderate-income person. According to the adopted Assessment of Fair Housing, the City remains a diverse and integrated community with no significant concentrations of minorities. The City has no Racially or Ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty (R/ECAPs) and that the City’s dissimilarity index score and mapping all indicate a highly integrated community. Table 10 - Geographic Distribution Target Area Percentage of Funds CDBG Target Area 0% Citywide 100% Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically The City's primary method of allocating CDBG dollars is to assist low - to moderate-income areas and special needs populations. While 100% of the funds will be used to address the needs of lower income persons, none of the 2023-2024 Program Year funds will be used exclusively in eligible target areas, because the City will be addressing ADA needs in accordance with the AFH. For affordable housing, the City's resources will be allocated in areas where affordable housing is lacking and/or infill areas can accommodate affordable housing, when feasible. During Program Year 2, the City is allocating resources to those activities/programs defined as high priority pursuant to those established within the Consolidated Plan. Activities listed as high priority include facility and infrastructure improvements including accessibility upgrades; and a provision of services including childcare, clothing, food, fair housing, shelter, health care, victims 70 of domestic violence, assistance to persons with disabilities and other social services and homeownership. As mentioned in the City’s Strategic Plan, the greatest obstacle to meeting underserved needs is lack of funding. The City has many needs that exceed available funding, including infrastructure maintenance and repair, housing, and services to special needs populations, comprehensive housing, and services to assist persons who are chronically homeless move into supportive housing environments and provision of affordable housing. Both private foundations and public agencies have limited resources available to address social, community, and economic development goals pale in comparison to the recognized needs. For example, the City was able to fund only about 70 percent of the public service requests received from non-profit and government agencies this fiscal year. The City strongly encourages its subrecipients to seek other resources, to forge new partnerships, and to leverage additional funding whenever possible from local, State, Federal, and private sources. The City urges CDBG- funded programs and services to be flexible, while at the same time to be as efficient and effective as possible to achieve expected performance outcomes. Discussion Based on the Strategic Plan, the City is allocating 100 percent of its non-administrative CDBG funds for program year 2023-2024 to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate- income people. The City does not have any Neighborhood Strategy Areas. 71 AP-55 Affordable Housing – 91.220(g) The 2022-2026 Consolidated Plan provides the framework for investing CDBG funds in the City. Promote the development of affordable housing and preserve the existing housing stocks have been identified as high priority needs. No new affordable hou sing will be created in program year 2023-2024. Based on evaluation of ACS and CHAS data, there is a high need for additional rental housing units affordable for households earning less than 80 percent of AMI. Of the households earning 0-80 percent of AMI, 10,715 are cost burdened households — meaning households paying more than 30 percent of their income for housing. Furthermore, 4,645 of those households are considered severely cost burdened— meaning they pay more than 50 percent of their income for housing. Within the severely cost burdened households, 2,965 are renters and most of those households (2,150) earn less than 50 percent of AMI and are considered the most at risk of becoming homeless. The age and condition of Temecula’s housing stock is an important indicator of potential rehabilitation needs. Over 90 percent of housing in Temecula has been constructed since 1980. Commonly, housing over 30 years of age needs some form of major rehabilitation, such as roof replacement, foundation work and plumbing systems. Housing over 20 years of age will generally exhibit deficiencies in terms of paint, weatherization, heating / air-conditioning systems, hot water heaters and finish plumbing fixtures. According to CHAS data showing the year housing units were built categorized by owner and renter tenure: • Built 2000 or later 8,290 or 38 percent of the 21,600 owner-occupied housing units • Built 1980-1999 11,920 or 55 percent of the 21,600-owner occupied housing unit • Built 2000 or later 4,900 or 41 percent of the 1 2,045 renter-occupied housing units • Built 1980-1999 6,050 or 50 percent of the 12,045 renter occupied housing units Preservation of the physical and functional integrity of existing housing units occupied by low - and moderate-income households is a cost-effective way to invest limited resources to retain existing housing units that are already affordable to low- and moderate-income households in the community One Year Goals for the Number of Households to be Supported Homeless 0 Non-Homeless 0 Special-Needs 0 Total 0 72 Table 11 - One Year Goals for Affordable Housing by Support Requirement One Year Goals for the Number of Households Supported Through Rental Assistance 0 The Production of New Units 0 Rehab of Existing Units 0 Acquisition of Existing Units 0 Total 0 Table 12 - One Year Goals for Affordable Housing by Support Type Discussion The City funds residential rehabilitation with CDBG. Although no application was received for the 2023-2024 program year, applications are anticipated in subsequent program years. This program does not provide adequate to address the need in Temecula. State, other federal, and private resources are necessary to have a greater impact. The City approved Affirmed Housing proposal to re-syndicate and rehabilitate the 76-unit Mission Village apartments to preserve affordable housing in the City. This projects construction was completed in 2021. The City of Temecula has made progress on increasing the supply of affordable housing. It has done so by, adopting an Affordable Housing Overlay Zone ordinance as an incentive for the construction of affordable housing by the private sector. Additional progress includes two projects that are currently under construction, Las Haciendas with 77 units and Rancho Las Bolsas with 55 units. One project that recently received additional funding from the City to make th e project more competitive for tax credits, that project being Vine Creek with 60 units. Lastly, the City is currently in negotiations on an additional 6 units through Habitat for Humanity. 73 AP-60 Public Housing – 91.220(h) Introduction There are 184 units of assisted housing in Temecula, 129 of which are Housing Choice Vouchers and 55 of which are Project Based Section 8. As of September 2022, 138 families including 93 of whom have disabilities and some of whom are elderly. There are no public housing developments in Temecula. All public housing programs consist of housing choice and project-based vouchers administered by the Housing Authority of the County of Riverside (HACR). HACR monitors all units to ensure they are in adequate condition, meeting the Section 8 Housing Quality Standards (HQS). Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing There are no public housing developments or units planned for the City of Temecula in the next year. HACR will continue to actively support and assist Temecula residents with Housing Choice Vouchers. Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership HACR maintains active resident councils at all public housing developments and includes resident members on its Board of Directors. HACR constantly seeks feedback from residents on improvements and planning documents to ensure activities are meeting the needs of residents. HACR maintains a home ownership program for current public housing tenants through its Homeownership Program. HACR also links its Homeownership Program with its Family Self - Sufficiency Program to help households save money for a down payment through an escrow account. If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be provided or other assistance Not applicable. HACR is designated as a High Performing PHA. Discussion According to the Housing Authority, there are 138 households receiving tenant-based Section 8 vouchers and 26 project-based Section 8 vouchers in Temecula. 74 AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i) Introduction The City will invest CDBG funds during the 2023-2024 Program Year to address high priority needs identified in the Consolidated Plan including provision of supportive services for the homeless and those at risk of homelessness, low- and moderate income, special needs, senior residents, victims of violence, and persons with disabilities. Homelessness Services The January 2022 Point-In-Time Homeless Count revealed on any given night in Riverside County, approximately 3,316 people are homeless, up from 2,884 counted in a prior effort undertaken in January 2020. On January 2022, 1,336 people in shelters and 1,980 people without shelter. To address incidences of homelessness in the City and to prevent extremely low -income Temecula families from becoming homeless, the City will place a high priority on programs that work to prevent homelessness or rapidly connect homeless individuals with housing and supportive services. To address this need, in Program Year 2023 -2024 the City will support a continuum of services utilizing leveraged funds through the Riverside County CoC to prevent and eliminate homelessness including, but not limited to homelessness prevention and housing counseling programs, outreach, food and subsistence payment programs. These programs will be run by the City of Temecula and Community Mission of Hope. Services for Residents with Special Needs Analysis of available data and consultation with organizations providing services for special needs populations revealed a high need for a range of additional services including, but not limited to those concerned with developmentally disabled adults and victims of violence. To address these needs, the City will allocate CDBG funds for public service activities that will provide services for low-income seniors, victims of violence and children. These projects will be carried out by the Assistance League of Temecula Valley, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Southwest County, the Hospice of the Valley, Riverside Area Rape Crisis Center, SAFE Family Justice Centers, and Voices for Children. Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs The City’s one year goal to provide services to the homeless and those at risk of homelessness is one step in ending homelessness. Activities under this goal include outreach and assessment and will be provided through the City of Temecula’s Homeless Prevention and Diversion program’s short term subsistence payments and the Community Mission of Hope’s Housing Resource – Case management Program’s housing counseling and food pantry. 75 Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City of Temecula supports the efforts of the Riverside County Continuum of Care (CoC) and its member organizations that address homelessness. As described earlier, the City supports local nonprofit agencies who provide emergency rental assistance and housing counseling to low- and moderate-income residents to prevent homelessness. The City at this point in time is not funding any of these activities with CDBG funds, however, it should be noted that the City of Temecula's CDBG-CV funds (in the amount of $55,000) are awarded to a Homeless Bridge housing activity for those who have been negatively impacted by COVID-19. it will ensure that transitional housing is provided to this vulnerable population. Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homel ess individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again To keep families who are at risk of homelessness due to domestic violence housed, the City will provide CDBG funds to the SAFE Alternatives for Everyone Program to provide victim awareness, case management, and support for victims. In situations where the services for this clientele group comes to receive services, most if not all are also addressing a change to transition to other permanent housing. Whether that is coordination to some type of temporary shelter, other family homes, friends, it ensures that the resident is removed from the situation and housed for their own safety. The types of services and case management have been far more effective when being able to get the victim and their children if they have any out of the situation for which they called in for. Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs The City participates in the Riverside County CoC. The Riverside County CoC Ten-Year Plan to End Homelessness included a goal to establish County wide protocols and procedures to prevent people from being discharged from public and private institutions of care into homelessness. The CoC is seeking to improve coordination among publicly and privately funded institutions of care 76 and local service agencies to achieve this goal. Discussion With limited CDBG resources available, the City is investing in public service grants. City of Temecula considers working to end and prevent homelessness a high priority and will support CDBG funded activities that help prevent homelessness and that provide a structured path to stable housing for individuals and families who become homeless. The City is investing gene ral funds through the Police Department budget to provide HOT Program officers that will connect unsheltered homeless individuals and families with emergency shelter, transitional housing, and permanent housing opportunities, as well as other services to address special needs such as drug and alcohol rehabilitation and mental health services. The City will continue to take a leadership role in the Southwest Riverside County Homeless Alliance team meetings, where homeless providers will collaborate in addressing the homeless needs. 77 AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j) Introduction: A barrier to affordable housing is a public policy or nongovernmental condition that constrains the development or rehabilitation of affordable housing. Barriers can include land use controls, property taxes, state prevailing wage requirements, environmental protection, cost of land and monetary resources. Barriers to affordable housing are distinguished from impediments to fair housing choice in the sense that barriers are lawful and impediments to fair housing choice are usually unlawful. Based on information gathered during community meetings, the 2022 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice, Consolidated Plan Resident Survey, the 2021-2029 Housing Element and market analysis, the primary barriers to affordable housing in Temecula are • housing affordability, • the lack of monetary resources necessary to develop and sustain affordable housing, • concentrations of racial and ethnic minorities, • access to opportunities and exposure to adverse community factors, and • housing issues. These barriers are interconnected. Demand for affordable housing exceeds the supply, insufficient resources are available to increase the supply of affordable housing resulting in renter households – and to a disproportionate extent Black, Native American, and Hispanic renter households - living in suboptimal housing conditions. Those conditions are housing cost burden, incomplete kitchens, and plumbing, overcrowding, cost burden, inordinately great distances from employment centers, low access to public and affordable transportation, low homeownership rates and high exposure to poverty. As Temecula’s population continues to change it should anticipate meeting the needs of a sma ll and increasing proportion of the population in Temecula has limited English proficiency, an aging population and those posed by increasingly diverse population and degree of segregation trends. In the last five years, the elimination of local Redevelop ment Agencies by the State of California resulted in the loss of a crucial resource for the development and preservation of affordable housing. This was the most significant public policy change impacting affordable housing and residential investment. While there are mechanisms whereby certain affordable housing assets tied to the former Redevelopment Agencies may be utilized today, these resources are finite and scarce. Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning 78 ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment To address these barriers the City will work to take the following steps. • Investing CDBG into preservation of affordable housing and continuing to leverage CDBG funds to attract private and other available public resources, • Marketing CDBG-funded programs in high poverty areas in a way that is accessible to low- income residents, • Promoting or targeting CDBG funded non-housing activities to high poverty areas, • Promoting fair housing education for tenants and homebuyers, and landlord and realtors, • Maintaining fair housing resource on the City website and maintaining housing and a community development resources list • Launching a Permit Ready Accessory Dwelling Unit program Additionally, in 2018, the City adopted an Affordable Housing Overlay (AHO) ordinance, which addresses the need for affordable housing in three ways. First it created the conditions for the development of new affordable housing units in a range of sizes including micro units and efficiencies that may be beneficial to developmen tally disabled adults. The AHO also removed barriers to affordable housing development by allowing multi-family uses at higher densities by right without a conditional use permit. The AHO established this zone on at least 100 acres throughout the City to promote inclusive living patterns with respect to the location of affordable housing outside of areas with relatively higher exposure to poverty. The City will continue to work with developers in accessing other funds to address the affordable housing needs. Discussion: Although the City no longer has Redevelopment funding, the City will continue to leverage its local funds to attract private and other available public resources, including land conveyed to the City for affordable housing, to facilitate affordable housing development. This strategy will increase the supply of affordable housing and preserve existing affordable housing in the City. 79 AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k) Introduction: The City’s planned investment of CDBG funds through the 2023-2024 Action Plan will address obstacles to fostering development of and maintaining existing affordable housing; evaluating and reducing lead-based paint hazards; reducing the number of families living in at or below the poverty line; developing institutional structure; and enhanced coordination among collaborative agencies and organizations. Additionally, this section will identify obstacles to meeting underserved populations needs and propose action to overcome those obstacles. Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The primary obstacles to meeting the underserved needs of low - and moderate-income people include lack of funding from federal, state, and other local sources, and the high cost of housing. To address this obstacle, at least in part, the City is investing CDBG funds in local nonprofit organizations to address the public service needs of those who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, seniors, and victims of violence. To address underserved needs, the City is allocating 100 percent of its non-administrative CDBG funds in Program Year 2023-2024 to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate- income people or people presumed under HUD regulations to be low- and moderate-income. Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing In the implementation of the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan, the City will invest CDBG funds to preserve and maintain affordable housing through the Habitat for Humanity Critical Homeownership and Financial Wellness courses to ensure that those who are in the process of purchasing a home that they are assisted in the process and are getting into a home that they can afford. Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards The Residential Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 (Title X) emphasizes prevention of childhood lead poisoning through housing-based approaches. Because nearly all of the City’s housing stock was built after 1978, it is rare for the City to encounter lead -based paint hazards as part of its housing rehabilitation program. Should a hazard exist, the City will require lead- based paint testing and risk assessments for each property assisted that was built prior to January 1, 1978, and safe work practices or abatement into the scope of work as required to reduce lead- 80 based paint hazards in accordance with 24 CFR Part 35. Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families The implementation of CDBG meeting the goals established in the 2022-2026 Consolidated Plan - Strategic Plan and this Annual Action Plan will help to reduce the number of poverty-level families by: • Supporting activities that preserve the supply of decent housing that is affordable to low - and moderate-income households; • Supporting a continuum of housing and public service programs to prevent and eliminate homelessness; • Supporting housing preservation programs that assure low income households have a safe, decent and appropriate place to live; and • Supporting public services for low- and moderate-income residents including seniors, victims of violence and those with special needs and those at-risk of homelessness offered by nonprofit organizations receiving CDBG public services grants. In addition to these local efforts, mainstream state and federal resources also co ntribute to reducing the number of individuals and families in poverty. Federal programs such as the Earned Income Tax Credit and Head Start providing pathways out of poverty for families who are ready to pursue employment and educational opportunities. Additionally in California, the primary programs that assist families in poverty are CalWORKS, CalFresh (formerly food stamps) and Medi-Cal. Together, these programs provide individuals and families with employment assistance, subsidy for food, medical care, childcare and cash payments to meet basic needs such as housing, nutrition and transportation. Other services are available to assist persons suffering from substance abuse, domestic violence and mental illness. Actions planned to develop institutional structure The institutional delivery system in Temecula is high-functioning and collaborative—particularly the relationship between local government and the nonprofit sector comprised of a network of capable non-profit organizations that are delivering a full range of services to residents. Strong City departments anchor the administration of HUD grant programs and the housing, community and economic development activities that are implemented by the City support and enhance this existing institutional structure. Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social 81 service agencies To enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies, the City will continue consulting with and inviting the participation of a wide variety of agencies and organizations involved in the delivery of housing and supportive services to low - and moderate- income residents in Temecula—particularly in the CDBG Target Areas. Discussion: In the implementation of the 2023-2024 Action Plan, the City will invest CDBG resources to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs, foster and maintain affordable housing, reduce lead-based paint hazards, reduce the number of poverty-level families, develop institutional structure and enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. 82 AP-90 Program Specific Requirements – 91.220(l)(1,2,4) Introduction: In the implementation of programs and activities under the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan, the City of Temecula will follow all HUD regulations concerning the use of program income, forms of investment, overall low- and moderate-income benefit for the CDBG program and recapture requirements for the HOME program.
