ACTION PLAN

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City Council will consider approving the City’s Annual Action Plan for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-2027 for the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) programs. The Annual Action Plan must be submitted to HUD as a prerequisite for receiving federal CDBG and HOME funds. The recommended activities in the Annual Action Plan satisfy HUD’s required eligibility criteria that the activities primarily benefit low- and moderate-income persons. If approved by the City Council, the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan will be submitted to HUD for final review and approval.

RECOMMENDATION

That the City Council:

1. Approve the proposed Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan and authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to submit the document and the required certifications to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development; and,

2. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to modify and execute any and all appropriate instruments, agreements, contracts, and implementing documents related to the implementation and administration of the proposed Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan, Community Development Block Grant Program, and HOME Investment Partnerships Program, including subrecipient grant contracts and agreements, on the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban Development's appropriation to the City.

BACKGROUND
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development provides the City with annual entitlement funding under the Community Development Block Grant and HOME Investment Partnerships programs. These federal grants are available to the City for a variety of eligible housing and community development activities that primarily benefit low- and moderate-income households. Each year, the City is required to prepare an Annual Action Plan identifying the specific activities and projects the City proposes to undertake with available CDBG and HOME funds during the upcoming program year. The Annual Action Plan serves as the City’s application to HUD for these funds and must be submitted annually as a condition of continued participation in the programs.

The Draft 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan covers the period of July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, and it identifies the one-year projects, funding allocations, and performance goals proposed for the upcoming program year. As part of the required citizen participation process, the draft 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan was made available for public review and comment from March 27, 2026, through April 28, 2026. A public hearing is scheduled for April 28, 2026, to receive public comments on the document prior to final submission to HUD.

ANALYSIS
For the 2026-2027 program year, the City expects to receive approximately $1,002,232.00 in new CDBG funds, $859,484.01 in prior year CDBG funds, and $414,117.17 in HOME funds. In total, the draft 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan proposes to allocate approximately $2,275,833.18 in CDBG and HOME resources to eligible projects and activities. Compared to the City’s amended 2025-2026 Action Plan, the new annual CDBG entitlement is lower by $18,604.00, while the HOME allocation is higher by $5,732.73.

The recommended activities in the Annual Action Plan satisfy HUD’s required eligibility criteria that the activities primarily benefit low- and moderate-income persons. The draft 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan includes the following proposed allocations:

Table 1 – CDBG Activities
Community Development Block Grant Proposed
Housing Rehabilitation Program $1,332,324.21
Section 108 Loan Repayment $338,945.80
Fair Housing Services $20,000.00
General Planning and Administration $184,446.00
Total CDBG Funding $1,861,716.01
Table 2 – HOME Activities
Home Investment Partnerships Grant Proposed
Housing Rehabilitation Program $307,996.17
Affordable Housing Development $64,710.00
General Planning and Administration $41,411.00
Total HOME Funding $414,117.17

These activities are intended to further the City’s broader housing and community development priorities established in the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan, including preserving and increasing affordable housing opportunities, improving public facilities and infrastructure, supporting equal access to housing opportunities, and addressing community needs affecting low- and moderate-income residents.

The Housing Rehabilitation Program continues to represent the City’s primary investment of both CDBG and HOME resources for the 2026-2027 program year and remains the City’s most in-demand CDBG and HOME- funded activity. In FY 2024-2025, the City completed 10 housing rehabilitation projects, and in FY 2025-2026, the City has completed 5 projects to date. The decreased number of completed projects in the current year is due to two operational interruptions. First, the program was paused after a Contractors State License Board rule determination created legal challenges and uncertainty for the Housing Rehabilitation Program, requiring the City to reassess and adjust the program before moving forward. Second, the program was paused again in late 2025 due to the federal government shutdown, which temporarily restricted the City’s ability to access funds. For FY 2026- 2027, staff estimates that up to 25 housing rehabilitation projects can be completed due to the carryover of unexpended funds from the current program year. Additionally, the total number of projects completed in any given year is influenced by the size and complexity of individual rehabilitation projects, construction costs, contractor availability, applicant readiness, and federal eligibility and compliance requirements. Staff continues to prioritize the program due to its high demand.

The current CDBG waitlist includes 46 households and reflects an estimated three-year wait for assistance. There is no comparable HOME waitlist; however, HOME-funded projects are subject to more stringent eligibility requirements. In addition to housing rehabilitation, the Action Plan includes repayment of the City’s prior Section 108 loan, a HUD financing tool that allows entitlement communities to borrow against future CDBG funds for eligible community development activities such as housing rehabilitation, economic development projects, large- scale physical development or redevelopment activities, and public infrastructure improvements. The Action Plan also includes continued fair housing services, the required 15 percent HOME set-aside for Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO) activities, and program administration costs for MDG Associates, Inc., which provides planning, preparation, and overall administration of the City’s CDBG and HOME programs.

As part of the required citizen participation process, the City held two community meetings on the draft 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan, including one in-person meeting with five attendees and one virtual meeting with five attendees. The meetings were promoted through the City’s social media platforms to provide residents and stakeholders with an opportunity to review the proposed programs and funding priorities and provide input. The draft document currently reflects placeholders for written public comments received during the public review period and oral testimony received during the public hearing. If approved by the City Council, any final revisions necessary to reflect public comment, technical updates, certifications, or HUD submission requirements will be incorporated prior to transmittal to HUD.

Executive Summary
AP-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)

1. Introduction
The City of Downey has prepared the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan as required to receive federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) funds. As required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) the Consolidated Plan provides a comprehensive assessment of the City’s housing and community development needs and outlines the City’s priorities, objectives, and strategies for the investment of CDBG and HOME funds to address these needs over the next five years, beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2030.

Each year, the City receives CDBG and HOME funds through a formula-based allocation from HUD. These funds are awarded to non-profit organizations, for-profit entities, and public agencies to support a variety of activities that align with the City’s Consolidated Plan goals and address the high priority needs of low- and moderate-income residents.

Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
The CDBG program, established under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, is a flexible federal funding source designed to address a wide range of housing and community development needs. HUD evaluates the City’s Consolidated Plan and program performance based on three primary objectives: providing decent housing, creating suitable living environments, and expanding economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income households.

To qualify for CDBG funding, each activity must meet one of the following national objectives:
- Benefit low- and moderate-income persons; or
- Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums and blight; or - Meet other community development needs having a particular urgency (usually the result of a natural disaster).

HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) Program
The HOME program, established under the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act of 1990, is the largest federal program dedicated to affordable housing development. Designed to increase the supply of safe and affordable housing for low- and moderate-income households, the HOME program is often implemented in collaboration with non-profit housing developers, public agencies, and private entities. Eligible activities supported by HOME funds include new construction, acquisition, and rehabilitation of affordable housing, homebuyer assistance programs, and tenant-based rental assistance.

2. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan The 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan is grounded in a comprehensive, data-driven needs assessment and market analysis, combined with insights gathered from residents, community organizations, and other local stakeholders. This approach ensures that CDBG and HOME funds are directed toward high priority needs that align with the City’s goals.

Based on this, the City has identified six high priority needs, which will be addressed through six goals over the five-year period. These goals establish a clear framework for the allocation of CDBG and HOME funds which ensure investments produce meaningful results. Each goal is tied to measurable outcome indicators which allow the City to track progress, assess performance, and evaluate the impact of HUD-funded activities. The following table summarizes the goals, priority needs, and expected five-year outcomes.

3. Evaluation of past performance
The investment of HUD resources during the 2019-2023 Program Years had widespread impact in Downey. During Program Year 2019, the global coronavirus pandemic struck and in 2020, Congress passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES). The City received $1,558,902 CDBG-CV funds to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the virus in the community. The World Health Organization, based on evidence, has ended pandemic status and the national public health emergency has ended.

Together with other federal, state, and local investments, HUD resources allowed the City of Downey and its partners to provide assistance to low and moderate-income people through community and supportive services, and community facilities and infrastructure. The City continues to effectively implement its activities and align projects and programs with the City’s overall strategies and goals. A full review of past performance is available in the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Reports (CAPERs) that can be accessed through the City’s website at https://www.downeyca.org/our-city/departments/community-development/housing- division/public-document-review. In summary, as of June 30, 2025,

City of Downey 8 2026 Annual Action Plan

- Provided fair housing services to residents of Downey - Provided sustainability of decent housing through rehabilitating 37 housing units and conducting an equal number of lead-based paint and abatement test - Stimulated business investment and job development through direct financial assistance to businesses and section 108 repayment through 2 business - Provided emergency financial assistance to 8 Small Business - Provided emergency financial assistance to 16 Microenterprises - Provided Emergency Rental Assistance to 99 households

4. Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process The Consolidated Plan regulations at 24 CFR Part 91 provide the citizen participation and consultation requirements for the development of the Consolidated Plan. Chief among those requirements is the need to consult with the Continuum of Care (CoC) to address homelessness, Public Housing Authorities (PHA), business leaders, civic leaders, and public or private agencies that address housing, health, social service, victim services, employment, or education needs of low-income individuals and families, homeless individuals and families, youth and/or other persons with special needs. Information supplied by these community stakeholders, together with the data supplied by HUD resulted in a well-informed planning document that reflects the housing and community development needs and priorities for the City of Downey over the next five years.

In accordance with the City's Citizen Participation Plan (CPP), residents and stakeholders were able to participate in the development of the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan through surveys, community meetings, and public hearings. Efforts were made to encourage participation by low- and moderate-income persons, particularly those living in areas where HUD funds are proposed to be used, and by residents of predominantly low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. Efforts were made 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.

5. Summary of public comments
Two Community Meetings were held in person on April 13 and virtually on April 16, 2026 to solicit public input.

AP-10 Consultation – 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l)

1. Introduction
As part of the preparation of the Consolidated Plan the City reached out for consultation to agencies, groups, and organizations involved in the development of affordable housing, creation of job opportunities for low-and moderate‐income residents, and/or provision of services to homeless and non-homeless individuals with special needs. To facilitate this consultation, the City solicited feedback through the following methods:
- Community Needs Survey (web‐based and paper‐surveys)
- Community and stakeholder meetings
- Public hearings
- Receipt of written or oral comments
The input received from these consultations helped establish and inform 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 careful coordination and alignment among various service providers to maximize the effectiveness of the CDBG and HOME programs. As a result, during the development of the Consolidated Plan, the City consulted with organizations that provide assisted housing, health services, and other community-focused programs. Outreach efforts included surveys, invitations to community meetings, and follow-up interviews where appropriate.

Outreach was made to over 100 organizations and agencies including:
- Nonprofit services providers,
- Affordable and market rate housing developers,
- Housing advocates,
- Public agencies (such as the school district and Public Housing Authority) - Economic development and employment organizations
- Community and neighborhood groups, and
- Neighboring cities and communities.

The City further recognizes the importance of continued coordination and alignment during the upcoming five‐year planning period with these organizations and agencies. The City will

City of Downey 11 2026 Annual Action Plan

strengthen relationships and alignment among these organizations in the implementation of projects using CDBG funds.

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 Los Angeles Continuum of Care (CoC) is comprised of a network of public, private, faith- based, for-profit, and non-profit service providers who utilize several federal, state, and local resources to provide services for homeless people. The region’s municipalities, including the City of Downey, also provide resources for services that assist the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless. The non-profit and faith-based community plays a key role in the current CoC system. Hundreds of agencies throughout the region provide programs ranging from feeding the homeless on the street to creating permanent supportive housing opportunities. These services are available to homeless families with children, and single men and women. The non- profit and faith-based community also serves special needs populations, such as victims of domestic violence, veterans, the disabled, and youth.

The CoC guides the development of homeless strategies and the implementation of programs to end homelessness throughout the region. The City regularly consults with the CoC to identify needs in the jurisdiction and its objectives to address the needs of different homeless populations, including chronically homeless families and individuals, families with children, veterans, unaccompanied youth, and persons at risk of homelessness. The City continues to coordinate with the CoC to clarify existing needs and objectives and identify opportunities for collaboration 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 Although not a direct Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) entitlement community, the City consulted with a number of housing, social services, governmental, and other entities involved in housing and community development in the City. Through these consultations, the City identified the holistic needs of the community, including those for extremely low-income households and homeless persons and how the City can continue to effectively coordinate with regional homeless service providers to best meet the needs of these populations. The CoC was consulted to discuss performance standards, outcome evaluation methodologies, and policies and procedures for the use of HMIS.

AP-12 Participation – 91.105, 91.200(c)

1. Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation
The City of Downey conducted a comprehensive citizen participation process to ensure the 2025- 2029 Consolidated Plan reflects community needs and priorities. The public engagement process was designed in accordance with the City’s Citizen Participation Plan (CPP) and HUD regulations (24 CFR 91.105), ensuring residents, local organizations, and community stakeholders had meaningful opportunities to participate in shaping the City's housing and community development strategies.

The City Manager’s Office led outreach efforts, emphasizing broad public engagement, particularly among low- and moderate-income residents, individuals with disabilities, racial and ethnic minorities, non-English-speaking populations, and public housing residents. The City also actively consulted with local and regional institutions, businesses, developers, non-profit and faith-

City of Downey 38 2026 Annual Action Plan

based organizations, the Continuum of Care (CoC), and philanthropic entities to ensure a coordinated and holistic approach to addressing housing and community development needs.

To identify and prioritize community needs, the City developed and distributed a survey to gather input on housing, community, and economic development needs. The survey was available in English and Spanish online and in paper format at various public facilities. The survey received 452 responses. A summary of the survey and responses is in Appendix B.

In the Fall of 2024 publicly noticed hearing and meetings were held to obtain the views of the community on the City’s housing and community development needs. The first public hearing was held on September 24, 2024 at 6:30 PM to receive public comments on the amended CPP. No comments were received. The public meetings were held on September 26 at 9:00 AM at The Arc, Regan Center Banquet Hall and on September 27 at 2:00 PM at the Barbara J Riley Community and Senior Center. A public hearing to adopt the Consolidated Plan and first year Annual Action Plan is scheduled for April 21, 2025, at 6:30 PM, at City Hall.

Public notices for public hearings, meetings, the survey, and the 30-day comment period were published in a medium of general circulation in the City. Additionally, the City used social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram to advertise the opportunities to participate. At each step in the process, the City was careful to ensure that 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.

City of Downey 43 2026 Annual Action Plan

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 is expected to receive HOME funding which can be leveraged with CDBG funding if used for affordable housing and housing rehabilitation. The City will leverage HOME funding if future projects are presented during the next five years. The HOME program requires a 25 percent match based on fund expenditure, unless a jurisdiction meets the thresholds to have the match requirements reduced. The threshold conditions are: 1) Fiscal distress; 2) Severe fiscal distress, and 3) Presidentially declared major disasters covered under the Stafford Act. The City was identified by HUD as a fiscally distressed jurisdiction and has been granted a 50 percent match reduction for Fiscal Year 2023. The determinations for 2024 have not been made public as of January 23, 2025. The City anticipates this designation will continue into the 2025 Consolidated Plan period.

Given the limited size of the CDBG and HOME annual allocations, the City may consider pursuing new Section 108 loans within the five-year Consolidated Plan period to support large-scale public improvements or housing projects.

Depending on the financing structure of a given activity, it may be advantageous for the City to use CDBG funds to leverage appropriate state, local, and private resources, including but not limited to those listed below.

Federal Resources:
- Continuum of Care (CoC) Program
- HUD Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (HUD-VASH) - Supportive Housing for the Elderly (Section 202)
- Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities (Section 811) - Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) - YouthBuild
- Federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Program
- Project Based Housing Choice Vouchers

State Resources:
- Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Program
- Tax-Exempt Bond Financing
- Permanent Local Housing Allocation
- Building Equity and Growth in Neighborhoods Program (BEGIN) - CalHome Program
- Multifamily Housing Program (MHP)
- Homekey
- CalHFA Single and Multi-Family Program
- Mental Health Service Act (MHSA) Funding
- Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities Program

- San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC)
- California Home Finance Agency
- City of Downey In Lieu Fees
- Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund (Successor Housing Agency)

Private Resources
- Federal Home Loan Bank, Affordable Housing Program - Community Reinvestment Act Programs
- United Way
- Private Contributions
If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan
Downey will comply with state requirements under AB1486 and AB1255 to inventory and support developers to access and utilize surplus municipal and state land for the construction of affordable housing. If such sites are identified, the City will consider the use of HUD funding or other resources to assist with site preparation and/ or development. At this time, no publicly owned land or property is expected to be used to address the needs.

Discussion
Assuming continued level funding, the City expects to utilize $7,146,102 in CDBG and HOME funds during the five-year period beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2030, to achieve the goals of the Strategic Plan.

Introduction
To address the high priority needs identified in the Strategic Plan to the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan, the City will invest CDBG and HOME funds in projects that preserve affordable housing, provide fair housing services, and repayment of Section 108 debt. Together, these projects will address the housing, community, and economic development needs of Downey residents. 2026 Projects

Table 8 – Project Information

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved needs As grant resources become increasingly scarce, it is important for the City to determine areas and population segments with the greatest level of need for a particular program or activity and to be able to invest federal, state, and local resources in high leverage opportunities where data suggests that the City will be able to maximize the impact of every dollar.

The 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan is a roadmap to guide the City’s housing, community, and economic development investments during the next five years. All investments of HUD funding are used to address the priority needs listed in the City’s five-year Consolidated Plan.

The limited funding resources continue to provide challenges to fully address the level of need identified in the Consolidated Plan.

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 has not established specific target areas in which to focus the investment of CDBG funds. For the 2025 Program Year, the City will invest 100 percent of non-administrative funds to directly benefit low-and moderate-income individuals throughout the City. Infrastructure improvements and public facilities will be focused on areas with a concentration of residents with low- and moderate-incomes or sites that serve a presumed group. Housing assistance will be made available to income-qualified households throughout the City.

Geographic Distribution
Target Area Percentage of Funds
Citywide 100%
Table 9 – Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically HUD allows CDBG grantees to implement certain activities, such as initial construction or expansion of community facilities and infrastructure that benefit certain neighborhoods, but not the entire City, provided the service area for the facility or infrastructure is primarily residential, and where at least 51 percent of residents are low- and moderate-income.

It is the City’s intent to fund activities in the areas and for the populations most directly affected by the needs of low-income residents and those with other special needs. Where appropriate the Annual Action Plan will direct investment to an area benefit neighborhood. The area benefit category is the most used national objective for activities benefiting a residential neighborhood. An area benefit activity is one that benefits all residents, where at least 51 percent are low- and moderate-income. Public infrastructure improvements are an area benefit activity when they are in a predominantly low- and moderate-income neighborhood.

Discussion
Based on the Strategic Plan, the City is allocating 100 percent of its non-administrative CDBG and HOME investments for program year 2026-2027 to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate-income people citywide.

AP-60 Public Housing – 91.220(h)
Introduction
As indicated in section NA-35, the LACDA administers HUDs Housing Choice and Project-Based Voucher and Public Housing programs in Los Angeles County.

Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing.

Public housing needs are addressed by the Housing Authority of the County of Los Angeles.

Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership.

LACDA encourages residents to be actively involved in the community and in the management of public housing developments through resident councils and numerous opportunities for feedback such as community meetings and surveys. LACDA encourages qualified public housing participants to pursue self-sufficiency and homeownership. In the Family Self-Sufficiency program staff works with participants to establish a five-year plan to become independent of government assistance. As family income increases the amount of rent they are responsible for increases as well. The incremental increase in rent is put into an escrow account which becomes available to the family upon completion of the program or for eligible expenses during the term of the program.

If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be provided or other assistance
The LACDA is not designated as troubled.

Discussion
LACDA is well-positioned to continue providing Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers in the City of Downey and throughout Los Angeles County.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i) Introduction
The City of Downey places a high priority on assisting households experiencing or at risk of experiencing homelessness, and households with other non-homeless special needs. According to the results of January 2024, PIT Count, approximately 71,201 individuals in Los Angeles County were experiencing homelessness. Analysis of available data and consultation with organizations providing services for special needs populations revealed a need for a range of services including but not limited to those concerned with disabled adults. The City strives to meet these needs through the expanded access to affordable housing and homeless prevention service goals and associated activities. The City does not receive a direct allocation of ESG funds from HUD. It will consider applying for state ESG.

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
Preventing and ending homelessness is a HUD priority addressed nationally through coordination of regional strategies and carried out locally by government agencies and a wide variety of community- based organizations and faith-based groups. Consistent with this approach, the City supports the CoC and its member organizations that address homelessness. In alignment with this strategy, the City will use HOME, HOME-ARP, and PLHA funds to support local service providers with programs that include reaching out to homeless persons, especially those who are unhoused, to assess their needs and connect them with appropriate resources.

The City’s goal of Homeless Prevention Services will be implemented in part through The Whole Child’s and CityNet’s outreach and engagement with individuals and household experiencing homelessness.

Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City of Downey supports the efforts of the Los Angeles County Continuum of Care (CoC) and its member organizations that address homelessness. In PY 2025 the City will allocate PLHA funds to the Salvation Army emergency shelter in Bell to provide beds and supportive services to Downey residents in need.

Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless 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 peri od 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
During program year 2026, the City will continue to use prior year HOME funds to provide to the Whole Child, which provides rental housing assistance to families at risk of homelessness. Each year, The Whole Child serves approximately 5 unduplicated people through its rental assistance program. When

City of Downey 54 2026 Annual Action Plan

paired with financial counseling, career coaching and other available case management services, the agency makes certain that families are ready to succeed in their transition to permanent housing.

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 County in collaboration with the CoC maintains Discharge Coordination Policies for the systems of care it administers, such as discharge from the Corrections, Foster Care, and the Mental Health systems.

The City supports the CoC’s advocacy for development of consistent policy implementation by hospital administrators for best practices, such as recuperative care, and co-location of health services near affordable housing developments.

During the program year 2026 the City will continue to direct prior year HOME funds to The Whole Child to provide rental assistance services to homeless households and households at risk of experiencing homelessness.

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, such as land use controls, property taxes, state prevailing wage requirements, environmental protection, cost of land and availability of monetary resources. Barriers to affordable housing differ from impediments to fair housing choice in that barriers are typically lawful and impediments to fair housing choice are usually unlawful.

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 ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment
Strategies to increase affordable housing opportunities are as follows. - Ensure that all development applications are considered, reviewed, & approved without prejudice to the proposed residents, contingent on the development application’s compliance with all entitlement requirements.
- Apply for or support applications for affordable housing funds for projects or programs that are consistent with the goals & objectives of the City’s Housing Element. - Conduct outreach & education on the new source of income protections regarding the use of Housing Choice Vouchers.
- Affirmatively marketing available development sites to at least two affordable housing developers annually with a focus on City owned (fully or partially) sites. - Increase allowable development densities (& overall capacity) in key zones in the City including a new residential overlay & mixed-use Zone as a means of encouraging new multi-family development for residents priced out of the ownership market. - Expand opportunities for higher density residential development by allowing residential development in key, underused commercial centers with Specific Plans. - Expand opportunity for by-right residential development by permitting by-right residential uses in the Residential overlay & commercial Specific Plan areas, & by removing the Site Plan Review requirement for multi-family projects to allow for an administrative review without discretionary approval.
- Promote the development of accessory dwelling units (ADUs). - Study &, if appropriate for Downey, adopt an inclusionary housing ordinance & program to increase the City’s stock of affordable housing.
- If no projects with affordability components have been developed on City-owned land, issue an RFP for development on City-owned properties that includes a development agreement to secure an affordability component.
- Provide pre-application technical assistance to affordable housing providers. - Update the City’s website to post a list of resources & regional agencies assisting first-time home buyers including eligibility requirements, provide the list at City facilities, on the City’s social media pages, & to community organizations.
- Remove discretionary review for by-right projects by adopting objective design standards to ensure that the City can provide local guidance on design & standards as allowed by State law.

City of Downey 56 2026 Annual Action Plan

Address displacement risk
- Address potential displacement by requiring the replacement of units affordable to the same or lower income level as a condition of any development on a nonvacant site identified in the Housing Element Program.
- Support additional Housing Choice Vouchers. Send an annual notice to all multifamily property owners in Downey about participation in the HCV program including available incentives from the LACDC.
- Expand incentives available to senior housing to all special needs housing types, including reduced parking standards & unit sizes, increased height allowances, & maximum lot coverage. - Preserve affordable housing units by providing TA to owners, tenants, & non-profit housing corporation buyers of existing subsidized low-income housing complexes to extend subsidy contracts &/or find government financing
Address disproportionate need & implement placed-based strategies - Create new housing opportunities in higher need areas through the Residential Overlay. - Continue the City’s proactive code enforcement program. - Provide housing rehabilitation assistance .
- Pursue funding & target neighborhoods of concentrated poverty for investment in rehabilitation, parks, transit, & active transportation.
- Continue to employ a wide variety of media & methods to notify the public of important housing decisions & opportunities to provide input.

City of Downey 57 2026 Annual Action Plan

AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction
In the implementation of the 2026 Annual Action Plan (AAP), the City will invest CDBG and HOME resources to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs, reduce the number of poverty-level families, develop institutional structure, and enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. Priority needs established in the 2025-2029 five-year Consolidated Plan form the basis for establishing objectives and outcomes in the Action Plan. Those needs are as follows:
- Increase the supply of affordable housing
- Preserve the supply of affordable housing
- Improve public facilities and infrastructure
- Equal access to housing opportunities
- Prevent and eliminate homelessness
- Public services for low- and moderate-income residents 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, the high cost of housing that is not affordable to low-income people, and the lack of availability of home improvement financing in the private lending industry To address these obstacles, at least in part, the City will continue to work to leverage public and private resources through grant and partnership opportunities.

Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families The implementation of CDBG and HOME activities meeting the goals established in the Strategic Plan and this Annual Action Plan will help reduce the number of poverty-level families by supporting:
- Affordable housing
- Public facility and infrastructure improvements and Section 108 debt service - Equal access to housing opportunities
- Homelessness prevention services
- Public Services
- Planning and Administration
In addition to these local efforts, mainstream state and federal resources also contribute to reducing the number of individuals and families in poverty. Federal programs, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit and Head Start, provide 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 Downey is highly functioning and collaborative, particularly the relationship between local government and the nonprofit sector, which is comprised of a network of capable organizations that are delivering a full range of services to residents. Strong City departments anchor the administration of HUD grant programs, housing, and community and economic development activities that are implemented by the City support to enhance the institutional structure. The City will collaborate interdepartmentally, with residents, and with nonprofit agencies receiving CDBG and HOME funds through the 2026 Annual Action Plan to ensure the needs of low-and-moderate-income residents are met as envisioned within the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan - Strategic Plan.

Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies
Communication and cooperation between the City and the partner agencies and organizations that administer activities is strong. City staff works closely with the other organizations to improve regulatory compliance, monitoring, cooperation and partnerships among agencies and technical capacity of organizations involved in project delivery.

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 upland—particularly the CDBG low- and moderate-income areas.
