SUBJECT: HUD 2025-2026 CONSOLIDATED ANNUAL PERFORMANCE AND

EVALUATION REPORT (CAPER)
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council approve the 2025-2026 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) and direct staff to submit the report to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), as required.

BACKGROUND:

Each year, the City of Alhambra is required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to prepare a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) programs. The CAPER summarizes program activities, expenditures, and accomplishments for the previous fiscal year and evaluates progress toward the goals and objectives outlined in the City’sOne-Year Action Plan and Five-Year Consolidated Plan.

The 2025-2026 program year represents the first year of the City's 2025-2029 Five-Year Consolidated Plan.

During the five-year planning period, the City’sgoals are to successfully implement a variety of programs to benefit low- and moderate-income residents. The City’s2025-2026 Action Plan activities include Senior Case Management, Housing Rehabilitation, Code Enforcement, and Fair Housing. These activities were below or near 2025-2026 accomplishment targets, except for Code Enforcement and Fair Housing, which exceeded their goals.

In 2025-2026, the City amended the Action Plan to add a Sidewalk Improvement Project, consistent with the Consolidated Plan's identification of community facilities and improvements as a high-priority. The activity is currently underway with an estimated completion date of February 2027.

In addition, the City added a Section 108 Loan activity for exterior improvements related to the Alhambra Community Center. In August 2026, the City officially received notice from HUD that the City’srequest for loan guarantee assistance was approved. On August 24, 7 2026, the Federal Award Agreement with HUD was officially signed and executed and over the course of the next several months, additional coordination with HUD will ensue before finalizing the City’sloan agreement (tentatively first quarter of 2027). Thereafter, the City will need to re-evaluate its CDBG activities to not only ensure its Section 108 loan repayment obligation, but also to confirm how modified activities will meet the City’shighest priorities.

The draft CAPER was presented to the HCDA Citizen Advisory Committee on September 1, 2026, and the Committee unanimously recommended the City Council approve the report pursuant to the CAPER updates / corrections provided by staff that evening. Staff advised the updates would be incorporated into the final CAPER submitted to the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The updates include:
® Updating Table 1 - Accomplishments - Program Year & Strategic Plan to reflect actual accomplishments for the Public Facilities/lnfrastructure activities.  Removing reference to the 2022 Street Improvement Project.  Updating the Housing Rehabilitation Program accomplishments to reflect assistance provided to ten households, rather than eight, during FY 2025-2026, including corresponding updates to Chart CR-20.
 Updating the final FY 2025-2026 CDBG and HOME fund withdrawals.  Updating the HOME Match Requirement narrative.
« Updating the report to reflect the remaining Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) program allocation.
® Updating the Measure A amount reflected under additional funding sources in the CR-25 Homeless and Other Special Needs section.
 Updating the narrative and current status of Program 11, Housing Workforce Program, in Section CR-35 -Other Actions, and updating the Public Policies section to reflect the current status of applicable municipal code updates, including updates related to SB 9.
 Updating the narrative to reference the City’sSubstantial Amendment to the 2025- 2026 Action Plan and 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan for a CDBG Section 108 Loan Application.

The 15-day public review period for the CAPER began on August 28, 2026, and concluded on September 14, 2026, at 5:00 PM. Public notices were published in the Pasadena Star- News, La Opinion, and World Journal. The draft CAPER was made available for public review on the City’swebsite. As of the submission of this report, no public comments were received. The final CAPER is due to HUD by September 28, 2026. flN^CIAL, ANALYSIS:

SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE AN AMENDMENT TO THE SITE HOST AGREEMENT WITH

EV CHARGING SOLUTIONS FOR THE INSTALLATION OF ELECTRIC

VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS AT THE ALHAMBRA COMMUNITY
CENTER
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended the City Council approve an Amendment to the Site Host Agreement (SHA), subject to final language approval by the City Manager and City Attorney, with EV Charging Solutions, Inc. (EVCS) for the installation of five new electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at the Alhambra Community Center; extend the term of the SHA until 2032; authorize the City Manager, or designee, to sign the agreement and related documents; and direct staff to undertake the steps necessary to finalize the Council’saction.

BACKGROUND:
 The Alhambra Community Center project was designed and constructed for convenient, publicly accessible EV charging to be installed in the parking lot.  The City has an existing Site Host Agreement (SHA) with EVCS, Inc. for the operation and management of 18 Level 2 EV charging stations at three City parking lots.  EVCS can provide five new Level 2 EV charging stations for the Community Center, and undertake the installation, operation, management, maintenance and repair of the chargers, at no cost to the City.
 Staff proposes an amendment to the SHA to add the installation, operation and management of the five new Level 2 EV chargers at the Community Center. The amendment will specify a five-year term, beginning when the new chargers are operational in 2027, and ending in 2032. ® Staff also seeks approval to extend the term of the agreement for the City’sexisting 18 Level 2 EV charging stations from original termination in 2029 to 2032, in order to align with the five- year term applied to the new chargers.
 The City will receive $0.05 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) per charger and be reimbursed for the cost of electricity for the new EV chargers, consistent with the terms of the original contract.  This aligns with the Sustainability Plan’sstrategy to decarbonize transportation by expanding access to EV charging at strategic locations throughout the city. The installation of these five new stations will increase the City’sinventory of public EV charging stations to 23 chargers.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS:

There is no cost associated with the installation of the EV chargers. The chargers will generate revenue for the City at a rate of $0.05/kWh per charger, and the cost of electricity for the charging stations will be reimbursed by EVCS.

SUBJECT: APPROVING THE APPLICATION OF GRANT FUNDS UNDER THE

INTEGRATED CLIMATE ADAPTATION AND RESILIENCY PROGRAM
(ICARP) FOR THE CREATION OF AN URBAN FORESTRY

MANAGEMENT PLAN AND THE PLANTING OF TREES CITYWIDE
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended the City Council approve the City’sapplication titled, “Let’sGrow Alhambra, A Tree Forward Approach to Combating Extreme Heat”to the Integrated Climate Adaptation and Resiliency Program to fund the City’sfirst Urban Forestry Management Plan and subsequently the planting of trees; authorize the designation of TreePeople and Active San Gabriel Valley (ActiveSGV) as grant co-applicants; and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute all grant documents; and direct staff to undertake the steps necessary to finalize the Council’saction.

BACKGROUND:

A total of $27.5 million is available for funding heat related projects from the California Climate Bond (Proposition 4) and State’s Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund. The proposed grant application is in direct alignment with the City’s Sustainability Plan’s Green Space Goal of increasing the City’stree canopy.

Staff is in the process of preparing an ICARP grant application to fund the development of the City’sfirst Urban Forestry Management Plan (UFMP). A UFMP will be beneficial to the City by recommending types of species to plant and identifying where the need to increase the canopy is the greatest. The focus of the selection of trees will be native drought-tolerant species. Ongoing, the document will serve to advise City staff on how to maintain a healthy urban forest. In addition, grant funds will be used for planting trees and providing public outreach on the benefits trees have on society. The funding request of $750,000 is based on estimates to produce the UFMP and the planting of trees along with maintenance to continue through the establishment period. A requirement of the grant application is to identify at least one Co-Applicant that will serve as a partner throughout the project from application through completion. The partnership is meant to strengthen the project by pairing municipal agencies with community-based organizations with subject matter expertise. Staff identified TreePeople and Active San Gabriel Valley (ActiveSGV) as Co-Applicant partners on this project application. TreePeople is a community-based organization that has for the past fifty years planted and cared for millions of trees, restored thousands of acres of fire-scarred wildlands, and helped educate hundreds of thousands of environmentalists. As technical advisors, TreePeople will be assigned to produce the UFMP. 10 ActiveSGV is a San Gabriel Valley-based nonprofit that works with communities to create healthier, more equitable neighborhoods through active transportation, environmental justice, and community-led projects. ActiveSGV will work with City staff to provide the public outreach, a critical component to the success of this project.

Staff is requesting the Council authorize the partnerships with TreePeople and ActiveSGV to execute the City’stree planning and planting efforts as it relates to the ICARP grant. Under the proposed partnerships, the community-based organizations shall be entitled to a portion of the grant funds (up to 8%) which could potentially exceed the City Manager’s$75,000 contractual authority. Under section 3.38.050 of the City’sprocurement process for professional services, the City Council can dispense with the contracting procedures when it’sdeemed advantageous for the City to do so.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS:

There is no fiscal impact from the application of ICARP grant funds. Grant funding announcements are expected by the first quarter of 2027. If funded, at least 8% of the total budget must go directly to the partners of the application.
