Executive Summary
AP-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
The City of Camarillo (City) is nearly 20 square miles in area and is surrounded by agricultural greenbelts and hillside open space. The City lies in the center of Ventura County, midway between Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. The City is economically diver se and provides a range of employment, lifestyle, and housing opportunities.

This Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-2027 Action Plan was prepared using the eCon Planning Suite system developed by HUD and covers the planning period of July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, which is the second year of the 2025-2029 Regional Consolidated Plan. The system prescribes the structure and contents of this document, following the Federal Consolidated Planning regulations.

As of the development of the draft Action Plan, HUD had not yet announced the allocations for CDBG funding for FY 2026-2027 but provided direction on how to proceed in CPD Notice 24- 01 (Notice). The draft Action Plan was developed using estimated amounts. The City prepared a Contingency Strategy (Appendix C) for how funding in the draft Action Plan would be revised once the actual 2026- 2027 CDBG allocations were announced. The funding in this document reflects the revisions in the Contingency Strategy included as Appendix C.

Also through the Notice, HUD provided the option of a waiver of the requirements at 24 CFR 570.200 (h) and will allow CDBG Entitlement Grantees to incur pre-award costs if needed. The City plans to apply that waiver to the submission of the FY 2026-2027 Action Plan. As outlined in the Notice, certain steps must be taken in order to apply the waivers for FY 2026-2027. Required certifications and public information may be found in Appendix B.

Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan.

The unique Priority Needs established for the City in the 2025-2029 Regional Consolidated Plan, which forms the basis for establishing objectives and outcomes in the City’s FY 2026-2027 One-Year Action Plan, are as follows:

High Priority

AP-10 Consultation – 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l)
Introduction
As part of the development of this Action Plan, the City conducted an outreach program to consult with including social service providers, school districts, government agencies, and healthcare agencies regarding the needs of the low- and moderate-income community. The City conducted three virtual meetings, held on November 4 and 6, to obtain the input of the community on the needs of the low - and moderate-income community, and the potential uses of FY 2026- 2027 CDBG funds. Over 50 local serving agencies and organizations were invited to participate. Six agencies attended one or both meetings and provided input on community needs.

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(l)).

During FY 2026-2027, the City will continue to participate in housing and community development forums, discussions, and one- on-one contact with citizens, public groups, and surrounding communities. The City belongs to the Ventura County Consortium (Consortium) which includes the cities of Fillmore, Moorpark, Ojai, Port Hueneme, Santa Paula, Simi Valley and Thousand Oaks, and the unincorporated areas of the Ventura County. This Consortium provides the framework to coordinate the use of CDBG funds to best serve the residents of the entire Consortium area.

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 Ventura County Continuum of Care Alliance (CoCA) is the lead agency for the C ontinuum of Care for Ventura County which includes the Ventura County Consortium in which the City is a partner . The CoCA has broad representation from government, homeless service providers, emergency response, health care, housing providers, business community, faith community, and homeless/formerly homeless persons.

CoCA is a collaborative group dedicated to promoting a safe, desirable, and thriving community, and works to increase community-wide commitment to preventing and ending homelessness in all parts of the region.

The goal of the CoCA and its partners is to pursue projects that serve persons who have been homeless for the longest period of time and are determined to be the most vulnerable among all subpopulations (chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth). All funded programs are focused on placing persons in permanent housing as quickly as possible.

The CoCA holds quarterly meetings and is open to all interested stakeholders and the public. This forum is used as a platform for promoting their mission and the CoCA has seen growing interest and participation over the past year as agencies, organizations, and interested parties see the benefits of improved coordination and communication. The CoCA also has four subcommittees which address specific issues C ITY OF C AMARILLO 2026 - 2027 A NNUAL A CTION P LAN

Page | 8
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
related to the needs of the low - and moderate- income community: Data Performance and Evaluation, Housing & Services, Homeless Management Information System Steering, and Public Information & Outreach.

The CoCA coordinates with all systems of care that may discharge persons into homelessness including local hospitals, mental health facilities, foster care programs and correctional facilities. Stakeholders from these groups participate in the C oCA’s meetings and partner with providers to reduce the number of discharges into homelessness. Successful partnerships have resulted in a new Recuperative Care program being established in Ventura County for homeless persons needing a safe place to recuperate after hospitalization. With the implementation of Pathways to Home, the local coordinated entry system, the CoCA has engaged healthcare and behavioral health partners to serve as points of entry to the larger service system linking the most vulnerable populations to shelter and housing resources which has created pathways to resources for populations who may not have connected to the service system.

The City is committed to using CDBG funds to support agencies which have a strong emphasis on addressing housing needs citywide and on addressing the ongoing needs of the homeless. For FY 2026-2027, the City’s CDBG Entitlement funds will be used to address the needs of the homeless by funding Turning Point Foundation to addresses the needs of the chronically homeless individuals who struggle with mental illness.

Other agencies noted later in this Action Plan will be funded to serve those who are at risk of homelessness.

The City’s Housing Element contains a number of programs which encourage the development of affordable housing, such as density bonus incentives in exchange for affordable housing components, streamlined review of development new
developments, reduced setbacks, and reduced parking
requirements. These encourage the development of affordable housing, allow the developer to achieve higher densities and therefore build more housing supply, and reduce the
unrecoverable costs of parking construction and smaller building footprints associated with setbacks.

Expected Resources
AP-15 Expected Resources – 91.220(c)(1,2)
Introduction
A number of housing and community development resources are currently available in the City. They include:
• Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds
• State Housing and Community Development (HCD) housing funds • HUD Housing Choice Voucher Program (through the Area Housing Authority of the County of Ventura)
• State transportation funds
Anticipated Resources
As noted earlier, during the development of the draft Action Plan HUD had not yet announced the FY 2026- 2027 CDBG funding allocations but provided direction on how to proceed through CPD Notice 24- 01. The City proceeded with the development of the FY 2026-2027 draft Action Plan using estimates based on the FY 2025-2026 entitlement funding allocation. When HUD announced the FY 2026 allocations, revisions were made to this document per Attachment C. All amount listed in this Action Plan reflect those revisions. All prior year funds noted are actual amounts. Based on this, the City will have $395,096.23 to use to serve the needs of the City’s low- and moderate-income residents. The FY 2026-2027 anticipated resources are:

1. FY 2026-2027 Entitlement Allocation (estimated) - $345,293.00

2. Prior Year Unallocated Entitlement Funds - $49,803.23 C ITY OF C AMARILLO 2026 - 2027 A NNUAL A CTION P LAN

Table 5 - Expected Resources – Priority Table

Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied.

The City issued a NOFA for FY 2026-2027 CDBG funding which was responded to by eight non-profit agencies. Seven agencies submitted applications for funding totaling $179,572. Seven grants were awarded totaling $101,792. These CDBG funds will leverage other private, state, and local funds received by these non-profit agencies.

The City will be carrying out an Affordable Housing Acquisition project in 2026- 2027 which is leveraged by the use of City general funds . This CDBG investment in this project is leveraged using a 0% interest short-term bridge loan using City General Funds to secure the home purchase while a buyer is identified. The home is sold to a low- and moderate-income buyer at an affordable price and the bridge loan is repaid to the City using CDBG funds.

The long-term affordability of the unit is assured through a 55- year covenant on the property. The City is also leveraging other resources to address the Goal and Priorities identified in the 2025-2029 Con Plan as detailed below. • The Arneill Road project will create nine new affordable housing units. This project will be built on City -owned land and will leverage City general funds, successor agency funds, and a variety of other funding sources. • The Lewis Road project will create 88 supportive housing units on County-owned land located in the unincorporated-County just south of the City limits. Leveraging includes Proposition 1 Homekey+ funding, $2 million dollars in City of Camarillo general funds, and a $2.5 million dollar C ITY OF C AMARILLO 2026 - 2027 A NNUAL A CTION P LAN

donation from Gold Coast Health Plan. These units are designed to help residents transition out of street homelessness. The units will include on-site supportive services provided by Many Mansions.

The City will pursue funding from private, local, state, and federal resources to leverage the use of CDBG funds in FY 2026-2027 whenever possible. The resources which can reasonably be expected to be available include federal (CDBG), state grants, and local public and private sector resources. It is anticipated that these resources will be used to support the provision of housing and services to low- and moderate-income families and households.

If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan.

The on-going Temporary Homes project is built on City land. This project is expected to be completed by the end of FY 2025-2026. The City also donated land for the Arneill Road project detailed above. The City does not own any other land which will be used to address the needs identified in the plan in FY 2026-2027.

Table 8 – Project Summary

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved needs During the preparation of the FY 2025-2029 City of Camarillo Consolidated Plan, four Goals and seven High Priority Needs were identified to meet the needs of the low - and moderate- income community within Camarillo. All proposed Projects meet at least one of the Goals and one of the High Priorities set. Despite very limited funding, the City took great care to address a wide variety of Goals and Priorities, including housing rehabilitation, new affordable housing development, housing stability, social services, and fair housing services.

The greatest challenge to addressing underserved needs is a lack of funding. The City makes every effort to identify and obtain additional funding to meet the needs of the City’s low- and moderate-income residents.

Affordable Housing
AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j)
Introduction
The City works to remove barriers to affordable housing through programs and projects listed below.

Actions 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 ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment.

Non-governmental constraints related to the protection of the environment, the availability of water, and appropriate infrastructure can be constraints to affordable housing, as can land cost and construction costs. But the City can make efforts to ameliorate the constraints presented by public policies to help create an atmosphere which fosters the development of affordable housing.

The City has considered the cumulative impacts of its land use controls upon the cost and supply of housing, including the ability to achieve maximum density. In response to those cumulative impacts, the City has allowed (and will continue to allow) exceptions or concessions to the development standards in exchange for affordable housing. These exceptions include reduced setbacks and reduced parking requirements, which allow the developer to achieve higher densities and therefore build more housing supply; and reduce the unrecoverable costs of parking construction and smaller building footprints associated with setbacks. The City offers density bonus incentives in exchange for affordable housing components in proposed developments and review streamlining components such as encouragement of pre- application meetings and simultaneous processing of entitlements to minimize the burdens and costs of the development review process.

The City’s zoning is consistent with the General Plan, and adequate sites with appropriate densities have been identified for 1,376 housing units allocated by Southern California Association of Governments ( SCAG) for the 2021-2029 Regional Housing Needs Assessment ( RHNA) planning period. The 2021-2029 Housing Element includes a program which provides affordable housing development by-right as well as other programs designed to encourage the development of affordable housing.

Recent examples of innovative affordable housing projects include waivers of recreational vehicle parking limits in exchange for an affordable housing commitment in these three rental projects. • Andorra Apartments which were completed in 2018; and
• Camarillo Village Homes and Calixa Apartments which are currently under construction; and • Vista Campanario Apartments, which was completed in 2025 Discussion

AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction
Priority Needs established in the FY 202 5-2029 Regional Consolidated Plan, which form the basis for establishing objectives and outcomes in the City’s FY 2026-2027 Action Plan, are as follows:

High Priority
• Development of New Affordable Housing
• Housing Rehabilitation
• Housing Services
• Housing Stability
• Homelessness
• Supportive Services
• Fair Housing Services
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs.

The primary obstacles to meeting the underserved needs of low - and moderate-income residents include lack of funding from federal, State and other local sources. However, to address underserved needs, the City is allocating 100 percent of its non-administrative CDBG funds to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate-income people or people presumed under HUD regulations to be low - and moderate- income.

These projects and activities will benefit seniors, those experiencing homelessness and those at risk of homelessness, families living with food insecurity, and low- and moderate-income homeowners.

Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing.

The County of Ventura and Cities of Camarillo, Simi Valley , and Thousand Oaks worked together to create the Ventura County HOME Consortium, which took effect in FY 2020-2021. By creating a local Consortium, these communities were able to drastically increase the amount of HOME Investment Partnerships Program funding dedicated to affordable housing in our community. Through this partnership, the County and participating cities hope to spur new affordable housing development within the HOME Consortium area.

The City currently has over 1,0 50 subsidized affordable rental units, and 120 affordable for-sale units. An additional 37 affordable ownership units are under construction as well as 40 affordable rental units . This extensive portfolio of affordable housing was developed by the City, private developers, and the Area Housing Authority of the County of Ventura (AHACV) and provides significant benefit to the low- and moderate-income community. The availability of these units increases housing stability and reduces overcrowding, which can be a significant negative outcome when there is insufficient affordable housing for the need, and prevents homelessness.

The City’s seeks to maintain the for -sale affordable housing through its Affordable Housing Acquisition C ITY OF C AMARILLO 2026 - 2027 A NNUAL A CTION P LAN

Page | 34
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
Program. Existing affordable homes with expiring affordability covenants are acquired with the intent of reselling them to new low - and moderate-income homeowners at affordable rates, and with new 55- year affordability covenants. The properties are initially acquired using City general funds in a no- interest bridge loan. The home is then sold to an eligible low - or moderate-income buyer at an affordable price. The City’s bridge loan is paid off by a combination of the purchase price the homebuyer pays and CDBG funds. In this case the CDBG funds act as a mortgage write-down.

The City intends to use FY 202 6-2027 CDBG funds to foster affordable housing through the following programs:
• Home Repair Program ($50,000.00 in CDBG funds) – Habitat for Humanity • Affordable Housing Property Acquisition Program ($224,246.23 in CDBG funds) – City of Camarillo The City also received $782,232 in Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds which have been used to foster affordable housing through a first -time homebuyer program beginning in FY 2024- 2025. The City developed this revolving loan program to bring homeownership within reach for low- and moderate-income City residents.

AHACV operates the Housing Choice Voucher program in the City. As of November 30, 2025, 576 C ity households are being assisted with Vouchers which allow them to rent housing on the open market at affordable rates. This represents 25.9% of Vouchers used County-wide.

Since most new housing in the City is developed privately, the City works with developers to encourage affordable housing to be incorporated into market rate developments. In addition, the City offers increases in density to developers who include affordable housing. The City has also partnered with for-profit developers in building affordable housing as noted earlier in this Action Plan.

Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards.

In 1978, stringent limits on the use of lead-based paint in residential construction were implemented. Despite this, lead poisoning remains a serious problem, especially in areas which have a concentration of older homes. According to HUD’s 1991 report to the U.S. Congress, an estimated 80% of housing built between 1940 and 1959, and 90 percent of housing built prior to 1940 contains lead-based paint.

Housing units built prior to 1978 may have interior or exterior building components coated with lead- based paint. Housing units built before 1970 are the most likely to need rehabilitation and to have lead-based paint in deteriorated condition. Lead- based paint becomes hazardous to children under age six and to pregnant women when it peels off walls or is pulverized by windows. The City has over 25,000 residential properties, approximately 13,000 of which (52 percent) were constructed prior to 1978, and approximately 139 of which (< .5 percent) were constructed prior to 1940.

The City ensures homeowners , tenants, landlord, and contractors understand the dangers of lead- based paint by making the “Contractors Lead Safety During Renovations” hand out available in the City Hall lobby.

Information on the dangers of lead- based paint is also provided to homeowners participating in the City’s CDBG-funded residential rehabilitation program. For FY 2026-2027, the City has allocated funding to Habitat C ITY OF C AMARILLO 2026 - 2027 A NNUAL A CTION P LAN

for Humanity’s Home Repair program for the rehabilitation of two homes. Prior to rehabilitating the dwelling, Habitat for Humanity investigates the structure for lead- based paint hazards to ensure the projects are completed in a safe and responsible manner. If lead-based paint is identified, the appropriate lead-safe work practices are employed, and clearance testing is undertaken to ensure no dangerous residue remains. The City will continue to educate residents on the hazards of lead- based paint and utilize lead- safe practices in the provision of the residential rehabilitation program.

Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families.

The City’s anti-poverty strategy is to support the AVHC Continuum of Care that ensures that residents are housed and fed and have the ability to obtain gainful employment. This is achieved by support from local churches that make sure that local families are fed as well as the City’s Continuum of Care that provides food and support services to bring families and individuals out of poverty. The City also allocates CDBG funds in ways which support the CoC’s anti-poverty strategy. Key FY 2026-2027 subrecipient grants include:
• Two grants for emergency rent assistance and/or utility assistance (Society of St. Vincent de Paul Blessed Junipero and Society of St. Vincent de Paul Mary Magda len). These grants provide assistance that ensures low- and moderate-income families are able to stay housed. • One grant for food services (St. Columba’s Parish). Providing food assistance allows low -and moderate-income households to use their limited resources for other critical needs. • One grant for the rehabilitation of owner -occupied dwellings (Habitat for Humanity of Ventura County). Minor rehabilitation grants allow low- and moderate-income residents to keep their homes in safe and habitable condition, ensuring that they are able to stay housed.

In FY 2026-2027 the City also plans to operate a n Affordable Housing Acquisition program in which homes are acquired using a City general fund bridge loan and CDBG funds and then are resold to low- and moderate- income first-time homebuyers at affordable prices. This ensures that families are able to maintain stable and affordable housing.

Actions planned to develop institutional structure.

In FY 2021-2022 the City joined the Ventura County Consortium. This partnership between the County and three cities within the County continues to bring increased collaboration and planning for affordable housing, homeless services, and social services for low - and moderate-income residents. Being a member of the Consortium also allows the City to compete for HOME funding at a local level.

The City works closely with other local agencies to address the needs of the low - and moderate-income community, including local non- profits and the Ventura County Continuum of Care Alliance (CoCA). The CoCA consists of a strong network of agencies carrying out the Continuum of Care by coordinating the provision of needed social services and homeless services and the execution of affordable housing strategies.

The City Community Development Department and City Manager’s office encourage cooperation among the various City departments and outside agencies, both public and non- profit, in delivering homeless service, housing service, and public service programs. The City also coordinates with organizations such as the C ITY OF C AMARILLO 2026 - 2027 A NNUAL A CTION P LAN

Homeless and Housing Coalition which perform the annual homeless census . There is a need for existing agencies working on social and housing issues to attain a greater capacity as federal, state, and local resources become more limited. The City will continue to support these efforts in FY 2026-2027.

Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies.

The City will continue to collaborate with the County, local non-profit affordable housing developers, and non- profits to bring more affordable housing to the City. Recently, these multi-agency collaborations have resulted in several affordable housing developments, both of which should be completed within the next two years:
• The Arneill Road project will create nine new affordable housing units. This project will be built on City-owned land and will leverage City general funds, successor agency funds, and a variety of other funding sources.
• The Lewis Road project will create 88 supportive housing units on County -owned land in the unincorporated-County just south of the City limits. Leveraging includes Proposition 1 Homekey+ funding, $2 million dollars in City general funds, and a $2.5 million dollar donation from Gold Coast Health Plan. These units are designed to help residents transition out of street homelessness. The units will include on-site supportive services provided by Many Mansions.

Each year, the City reaches out to over 50 non-profit service providers to encourage their input on the needs of the low- and moderate-income community. In addition, the City encourages those non- profit agencies to apply for annual CDBG funding to supplement their existing budgets, allowing them to provide services to more residents. During FY 2026- 2027, the City will continue to participate in housing and community development forums, discussions and one- on-one contact with citizens, public groups and sur rounding communities.

In FY 2021-2022 the City joined the Ventura County HOME Consortium. This partnership continues to bring additional and more consistent affordable housing resources to the City, increase collaboration and planning for affordable housing in the county, and allow projects located in the City to compete for HOME funding at the local level.

City of Camarillo
Waiver of Requirements at 24 CFR 570.200 (h)
for Community Development Block Grants Program (CDBG)

HUD has provided guidance in CPD Notice 24-01 on how to address this and other related impacts to the City’s CDBG program. Per the options provided in CPD Notice 24 -01 (Notice), the City has decided to delay the submission of the FY 26-27 Action Plan until the actual FY 26 -27 CDBG allocations have been announced by HUD, but in no case no later than August 16, 2026.

The regulations at 24 CFR 570.200(h) define the effective date of a Grantee’s agreement for CDBG funds as the program year start date or the date that the Action Plan is received by HUD, whichever is later. Per these regulations, the effective date is the date on which the City may begin to incur costs related to the operation of the FY 2026-2027 CDBG program. Because of the delay in the submission of the FY 26-27 Action Plan, the City’s effective date could extend significantly past July 1, 2026, the start date of the City’s program year. This would mean that the City would be unable to incur costs for those programs, resulting in a delay in the start of the FY 2026-2027 program year, and a gap in the provision of CDBG -funded services to residents of the City.

The HUD Notice has provided options for the City to use a waiver of the regulations at 24 CFR 570.200(h) to incur costs prior to the effective date. Therefore, in accordance with the direction provided in the HUD Notice regarding the waiver of the requirements at 24 CFR 570.200 (h), the City intends to use those waivers in the submission of the FY 26- 27 CDBG Action Plan and operations of the FY 26-27 CDBG program. Therefore, the City certifies that:

1. The costs incurred prior to the CDBG grant awards are necessary for efficient and timely performance of the activity in question.

2. The costs are for eligible activities under the regulations for the CDBG and HOME programs.

3. The City has complied with all other requirements for pre-award costs under the regulations for the CDBG and HOME programs or as described in CPD Notice 24-01.

B-2
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)

4. The activity for which costs will be incurred is included in the FY 2026-2027 Action Plan.

5. The City has completed its citizen participation process by including in its files a written, dated summary of citizen participation comments received on its Plan, pursuant to 24 CFR 91.105(b)(5) or 91.115(b)(5) as applicable.

Per 24 CFR 570.200 (h)(1)(ii), the City must advise citizens of the extent to which incurring pre- award costs may affect future grants. This might include activities being disallowed and funds returned to HUD if the activities do not meet the applicable regulations. The City therefore certifies that:

1. The Citizen Participation process will be undertaken in a timely manner and will include all required notices, public comment periods, and public hearings.

2. All activities undertaken will be eligible activities meeting a HUD-required National Objective.

3. The City will follow the requirements at 24 CFR 58 to ensure that all environmental compliance documentation is completed in a timely manner. Further, that the City will not take any actions that would have an adverse environmental impact or limit the choice of reasonable alternatives.
