REPORT TO THE JOINT MEETING: GLENDALE CITY COUNCIL AND

GLENDALE HOUSING AUTHORITY

AGENDA ITEM
Report: Harrower Village – First Implementation Agreement to the Affordable Housing Agreement, Providing Additional Funding.

1. Housing Authority Resolution of Appropriation in the Amount of $1,215,372 for Additional Funding of Harrower Village at 920 E. Broadway; and

2. Housing Authority Motion to Authorize the Executive Director to Execute an Implementation Agreement and Related Documents.

COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Action Item
Approved for June 6, 2023 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Abode Communities, developer of Harrower Village, the 40-unit affordable housing project in construction at 920 East Broadway, has requested an additional $1.5M.

Significant cost increases prior to construction commencement required a number of changes to the project’s budget. The requested $1.5M would allow for the original design and finishes to be restored, increase the contingency budget to the original amount, restore a portion of the developer fee, add the rooftop photovoltaic system back into the design and cover the increased costs of insurance.

Staff is recommending approval of $1,215,372 in additional funding instead of $1.5M. This recommended amount would address all the items above except the developer fee.

Abode has made an application to the San Francisco Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) for Affordable Housing Program (AHP) funds which can address the portion of the developer fee that Abode has deferred by eliminating the permanent loan, which will also serve to pay the Housing Authority loans quicker and may reduce the term of the ground lease.

Housing - By providing an additional $1,215,372 to Harrower Village, the Housing Authority is providing the needed financial support to construct the 40-unit, 100% affordable rental housing project for seniors.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution of Appropriation in the amount of $1,215,372 and authorize the Executive Director to execute an Implementation Agreement and related documents with Abode Communities.

BACKGROUND
In the Fall of 2019, the Housing Authority purchased Tobinworld, which included two properties. One .8 acre site at 900 East Broadway and the other, just across a north-south alley, is another .8 acre site at 912-920 East Broadway and 117 S Belmont Street (collectively known as 920 East Broadway). 900 East Broadway is currently being developed by the Housing Authority in partnership with Meta Housing and is a 127-unit, 100% affordable housing project for seniors known as Citrus Crossing. 920 East Broadway is a historic campus of three buildings surrounding a large courtyard.

The last occupant of 920 East Broadway was Tobinworld. It was originally built in 1920 and was known as the Harrower Labs, at the time, the largest employer in the City.

Harrower Village is a 40-unit, 100% affordable housing project for seniors. It includes the adaptive re-use of the three existing historic structures as well as the addition of a new construction, 12-unit building in the rear of the property.

The Affordable Housing Agreement between the Housing Authority and Abode Communities was approved on May 24, 2022, providing $10.7M in Housing Authority assistance to the project. Subsequent to this approval, Abode Communities and CDD staff learned that there would be a shortfall in funds due to soaring construction material costs and rising interest rates. Given the need to close financing by June 26 2022, there was insufficient time to request additional funding then.

To address the shortfall in funding and close by June 26 th, Abode Communities value engineered the project and reduced contingency budgets. They also worked with their equity partner to increase the level of investment in the project and with the general contractor on construction contract concessions. Finally, Abode Communities deferred a significant portion of their developer fee to eliminate the funding gap, close financing, and begin construction.

ANALYSIS
Abode’s request for an additional $1.5M in funding would restore many of the original design elements of the project, restore the contingency budget of the adaptive re-use portion of the project from 10% back to 15%, address a portion of the developer fee that was deferred, and address the additional cost of insurance.

With respect to the original design elements of the project, the project was value 4 of 155

31 4
1 4
0 engineered to remove certain components from the building including a shade trellis and included the use of lesser quality countertops, light fixtures, and flooring, a change in hardscape and landscaping, and the removal of the rooftop photovoltaic system. The materials initially expected to be used for finishes included solid surface countertops, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and a variety of light fixture types providing both ambient and task lighting for seniors. Unless additional funding is provided, these design elements would be downgraded to plastic laminate countertops, sheet linoleum flooring, more basic surface mounted fluorescent light fixtures, and a decrease in the quantity and sizing of landscaping materials. Restoring these elements would cost $514,694.

Raising the contingency level of the adaptive re-use portion of the project from 10% to the original level of 15% of hard costs, adds another $475,915. This is an essential cost that is prudent to address given that the project is in construction and is an adaptive re- use of a historic commercial building into affordable housing and numerous unknown costs have arisen, which is typical of an adaptive re-use project.

Insurance premiums for the project skyrocketed from approximately $101k at the initial estimate in 2019 to $193,500 two months prior to finance closing deadline of June 26 th, 2022, to a final number of $553,549 at closing. The primary driver of these cost increases was specific to the project, as it is a 100-year-old campus of three historic, unreinforced masonry buildings. Abode Communities request of the Housing Authority for this line item is $224,763 with the balance being paid by developer contribution.

The additional funding of $1,215,372 would be memorialized in a First Implementation Agreement to the Affordable Housing Agreement (Exhibit 1) and related documents including a Loan Modification Agreement, First Implementation to Disbursement Agreement, project budget and Notes.

The remainder of funds Abode Communities is requesting is $323,730 in developer fees either contributed or deferred through lease-up and operation of the project. Staff is not recommending the Housing Authority fund this line item. Rather, Abode Communities has made an application for AHP funds. With a successful award of AHP funds, which staff believes is likely, the new funds will eliminate the need for a permanent loan on the project. This is a benefit to Abode Communities as well as the Housing Authority as it improves the cash flow of the project. This in turn allows for Abode Communities to receive its deferred developer fee faster and a quicker repayment of the Housing Authority’s residual receipts loans. It will also likely reduce the term of the ground lease by as much as ten years.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
Public hearings were conducted on December 1, 2020 to approve the Exclusive Negotiating Agreement, May 4, 2021 approving the Density Bonus Housing Application, Letter of Loan Commitment and Lease Option and on May 24, 2022 approving the Affordable Housing Agreement. A Historic Preservation Committee hearing was also conducted on May 20, 2022. All hearings were properly noticed. 5 of 155

0 FISCAL IMPACT
Restoring the original design and finishes, increasing the contingency budget to the original amount, adding the rooftop photovoltaic system back into the design, and covering the increased costs of insurance will cost $1,215,372, which was not included as a part of the FY 2022-23 budget. Therefore, staff is requesting for an appropriation of $1,215,372, by shifting of appropriation from the Tobinworld Affordable Housing Development Project ($365,000) and from the Measure S Housing Land Acquisition Project ($850,372). The appropriation request is outlined below:

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA/NEPA)
The 920 East Broadway Project previously underwent review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City Council determined it to be exempt from any further CEQA review pursuant to section 15332 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (CEQA Guidelines), as a Class 32 “In-Fill Development Project”, as the project meets all the threshold criteria set forth in section 15332(a) through (e).

CAMPAIGN DISCLOSURE
The names and business addresses of the members of the board of directors, the chairperson, CEO, CFO, Subcontractors and any person or entity with more than 10% interest in the company proposed for contract in this Agenda Item Report are attached in Exhibit #2, in accordance with the City Campaign Finance Ordinance No. 5744. 6 of 155

0 ALTERNATIVES
Alternative 1: Adopt the Resolution of Appropriation and adopt the Motion to authorize the Executive Director to execute the First Implementation Agreement to the Affordable Housing Agreement and related documents (exhibits/attachments and related agreements necessary to effectuate the additional funding).

Alternative 2: Not adopt the above-referenced Resolution or Motion and not provide additional funding. This would cause Harrower Village to proceed through construction with the value engineered finishes and without the rooftop photovoltaic system. It would also not address the contingency budget or increased insurance costs.

Alternative 3: Adopt the Resolution of Appropriation and provide funding sufficient to cover some of the line items such as restoring finishes and the rooftop photovoltaic system.

Alternative 4: The Housing Authority could consider any other alternative not presented by staff.

The City of Glendale has been receiving CDBG funds from HUD since the inception of the program in 1974, thereby, marking it the 49th anniversary of the Glendale CDBG program. The ESG program was added in 1987 and the HOME program was added in 1992.

The national and local objectives of the CDBG program are to:

1. eliminate conditions of slums and blight, and

2. provide programs and services that benefit low and moderate-income persons, including the homeless.

8 The objectives of the ESG program are to:

1. engage homeless individuals and families living on the street;

2. improve the number and quality of emergency shelters for homeless individuals and families;

3. help operate these shelters;

4. provide essential services to shelter residents;

5. rapidly re-house homeless individuals and families; and

6. prevent families and individuals from becoming homeless.

The objective of the HOME program is to provide and preserve affordable housing for low-income persons.

The City is responsible for following HUD guidelines and developing a 5-year Consolidated Plan and an Annual Action Plan for the use of the funds.

Consolidated Plan
As a condition of eligibility for CDBG, ESG, and HOME entitlement funds, the City is required to submit a five-year strategic plan “Consolidated Plan” for the use of these funds. The current Five Year 2020-2025 Consolidated Plan (ConPlan) was approved by the City Council in June 2020 and submitted and approved by HUD. The ConPlan provides a profile of the City, and establishes program priorities, funding strategies and proposed goals for addressing community development, housing, and homeless needs in the community. The ConPlan also incorporates other funding sources, programs and initiatives that assist in addressing the City’s community development, housing, and homeless needs; and strategies for leveraging and coordinating these resources.

The ConPlan is the primary planning document that HUD uses to measure the City’s effectiveness and to approve the submission of Annual Action Plans and other funding applications to HUD. The Annual Action Plans are comprised of specific projects the City plans to implement to meet the objectives of the ConPlan every fiscal year.

Annual Action Plan
In developing the Annual Action Plan, HUD requires that the City involve citizens in the plan development and approval process. This process includes is a combined effort for CDBG, ESG, and HOME programs and includes community meetings, board meetings and oversight boards.

CDBG:

The most prominent program in the ConPlan/Action Plan development process, is the CDBG program. Annual planning for the CDBG program includes outreach to Glendale non-profit community agencies to introduce the CDBG program and process; hosting a meeting to identify community needs and set program priorities, pre-designating funds to City CIP; issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) to community agencies for PSS programs and CIP; working with the CDBG Advisory Committee to review the proposals, interview the agencies that submitted proposals and recommend funding community agencies; monitoring current fiscal year programs; and reallocating funds as necessary. 41 of 155

8 CDBG ADVISORY COMMITTEE:

To achieve citizen involvement in the plan development and approval process, the City Council appoints a citizen CDBG Advisory Committee, whose responsibility is to help oversee the planning process. The Committee’s current responsibilities include:
•Reviewing and commenting on the annual community needs assessment strategy. •Recommending program priorities, based on findings from the needs assessment, as well as input from the City Council;
•Evaluating funding proposals;
•Interviewing community agencies and City departments that submit project proposals;
•Recommending projects for funding;
•Reviewing sub-recipient performance, such as site visits and outcome reviews; •Reviewing and approving revisions or amendments to projects throughout the program year; and
•Reviewing and recommending reprogramming of CDBG funds.

The current CDBG Advisory Committee is comprised of the following members:

Committee Member Appointing Council Member

1. Anita Quiñonez-Gabrielian (Chair) Councilmember Paula Devine

2. Armik Avedisian (Vice Chair) Councilmember Ardy Kassakhian

3. Zanku Armenian Mayor Daniel Brotman

4. Ronnie Gharibian Councilmember Ara Najarian

5. Marina Manoukian Councilmember Elen Asatryan
CDBG funds are divided into three categories: Program Administration, Public Social Services, and Capital Improvement Projects.

Administration (Planning, Program Management and Oversight):

HUD allows jurisdictions to use 20% of their CDBG entitlement funds for administration of the program to ensure that they have the capacity to comply with the administratively laden HUD requirements and minimize financial risks. The core functions of Administration are planning, monitoring, contract compliance, financial management and project coordination. HUD is becoming stricter in requiring more low-income documentation from the sub-recipients in order to show eligibility for CDBG funds, which translates to greater financial risk and need for management and oversight.

Public Social Services:

HUD imposes a statutory limit of 15% on the amount of CDBG entitlement funds that can be used for social services regardless of how great the local need is for these services.

The basic HUD eligibility criteria for social service projects are: 1) the program constitutes a new or expanded level of service at the time that it is first funded, 2) the program serves over 60% low-income families (those who earn less than 80% of the County median), and 3) the CDBG funds are not used to substitute another available funding source. 42 of 155

8 In addition to HUD eligibility criteria, agencies will have to meet financial capacity prequalification guidelines, such as submission of two years of financial statement compilations and copies of Board minutes approving the financial statements, to be eligible to apply for City’s CDBG Program funds.

Capital Improvement and Neighborhood Improvement Projects:

Generally, capital and neighborhood improvement funds represent 65% of CDBG entitlement funds, plus any available reprogrammed funds, which can only be used for capital and neighborhood improvement projects. Projects that qualify for this funding category include: community centers, such as parks, libraries, recreation centers, senior centers, youth centers, employment centers and social service centers; handicapped accessibility projects anywhere in the City; public improvements in low income neighborhoods; commercial rehabilitation; and economic development projects.

Traditionally, as part of the funding allocation plan, the City Council pre-designates and pre-approves City CIP deemed a priority, and authorizes the issuance of a Request for Funding Proposal (RFP) to community agencies for the remainder of the CDBG funds.

Proposals are solicited from agencies for PSS and the balance of capital improvement funds for community CIP. Any qualified non-profit community agency or public agency is eligible to apply for CDBG funds provided that projects meet one of the two broad national objectives: 1) serving low-income persons, or 2) preventing or eliminating conditions of slums and blight. In addition, funded projects are required to serve primarily Glendale residents and not to discriminate in the provision of services. Furthermore, projects that meet the identified program priorities are given preference for funding.

The proposal evaluation criteria used by the CDBG Advisory Committee includes:
1) Overall quality of the proposal;
2) Whether the project meets a program priority;
3) Ability of the applicant to substantiate that the project meets a community need; 4) Whether the proposal clearly articulates a target population/outreach strategy; 5) Financial capacity of the organization,
6) Demonstration of coordination and collaboration with other agencies/programs; 7) Program goals and outcomes;
8) Feasibility of proposed implementation plan;
9) Budget, cost effectiveness and leveraging of funds; and 10) Demonstrated experience, effectiveness and administrative capacity of sponsoring Organization/City Department, including performance history.

Additional tools provided to the Committee to evaluate capacity and effectiveness of proposals include: 1) mid-year performance reports, 2) financial analysis report prepared by staff for each non-profit organization, and 3) proposal evaluation rating forms.

ESG PROGRAM:

The ESG Program follows the same process as CDBG, in terms of identification of homeless priorities, issuance of RFPs and proposal evaluation, except that ESG funding 43 of 155

8 proposals are reviewed and recommended by a separate homeless proposal review committee comprised of the Continuum of Care (CoC) Board. The CoC Board is guided by the specific needs of the CoC model of homeless services adopted by the Glendale CoC. The ESG funding plan is developed is a two-year plan. ESG programs that request continued funding for the subsequent year and meet their program outcomes and performance goals are allowed to be renewed for funding subject to review and approval by the CoC Board.

The published national objective of the ESG program is to help with the expansion, improvement and operation of emergency shelter facilities, supportive services, rapid re- housing, and homeless prevention.

The current CoC Board is comprised of the following members:

Board Member Agency
Melissa Younesian, Chair Verdugo Jobs Center
Vice Chair Vacant
Lt. Alex Krikorian Glendale Police Department
Baron Hopkins Homeless Alumni

HOME
The Housing Authority is a Participating Jurisdiction under the HOME Program. As such, it receives an allocation each year directly from HUD to carry out affordable housing programs and projects.

The Housing Authority periodically updates a Statement of Interest to reflect its funding priorities. Like the CDBG and ESG programs, it seeks input from the community through the Annual Action Plan process to determine what housing needs exist. It also solicits Requests for Proposal from developers when sufficient funding is available for development of an affordable housing project. A review team consisting of city staff reviews proposals and provides recommendations to the Housing Authority for viable affordable housing developments.

The Housing Authority uses HOME funding, as well as other funding sources including Low Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund (LMIHAF), and Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program to create affordable housing programs and projects. The City Council can also assign local Measure S funds to housing related purposes.

ANALYSIS
The FY 2023-24 Annual Action Plan process for CDBG began on September 7, 2022, when staff held the fifth annual Open House event in a virtual platform inviting over 99 non-profit organizations to participate. Twelve representatives from eleven non-profit community agencies attended the Open House to learn about the CDBG program.

In the Fall of 2022, a meeting was held to gather input from residents to identify needs and determine program priorities for CDBG, ESG and HOME. Five platforms were used 44 of 155

2 1
8 to gather comments, which included: 1) in-person community meeting, 2) a virtual community meeting via Microsoft Teams 3) email, 4) Telephone call-in option, and 5) a Community Needs Survey.

In total, six people attended the in-person community meeting. Seven residents participated in the virtual community meeting. Seventeen email comments and five telephone comments were received. 279 surveys were completed and analyzed.

On November 15, 2022, as part of the annual program planning cycle, staff presented the CDBG Advisory Committee recommendations to City Council/Housing Authority for approval when they approved: a preliminary proposed FY 2023-24 CDBG Funding Allocation Plan by Funding Category; program priorities; and issuance of an RFP for PSS programs and CIP based on estimated $1,700,000 CDBG entitlement funding from HUD.

The Proposed FY 2023-24 Funding Allocation Plan by Funding Category originally approved by Council/Housing Authority was as follows, based on an estimated $1,700,000 in CDBG Program funds:
•$340,000 (20%) for Administration (planning, program management and oversight)
•$255,000 (15%) for public social services programs
•$1,140,299 (65%) for capital improvement projects
-$400,000 FY2023-2024 Fremont Park Renovation Project
-$740,299 undesignated and available to community agencies for community capital improvement projects under an RFP
REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL PROCESS:

When the RFP was issued on November 17, 2022, it was based on the estimated $1,700,000 in entitlement funds. Seventeen CDBG funding proposals were received and evaluated by staff (through a Strength and Weakness Analysis) and the CDBG Advisory Committee. The Committee, on March 3, 2023, and March 6, 2023, interviewed each agency requesting PSS and CIP funds, respectively. The Committee deliberated and developed funding recommendations based on the HUD CDBG formula allocation released on February 27, 2023 and previous program year reprogrammed funds for CIP.

The final FY 2023-24 HUD Entitlement Funds for all programs and CDBG unappropriated fund balance from previous years is summarized below and is part of the final proposed Annual Action Plan: (See Exhibit 2)

CDBG $1,764,982
ESG $ 152,207
HOME $1,576,169 + $130,000 (Program Income)
Total $3,623,358

8 Based on the final HUD allocations, the final proposed FY 2023-2024 Funding Allocation Plan for the CDBG Program is as follows:
•$264,747 (15% of entitlement funds) for PSS.
•$1,147,238 (65% of entitlement funds) for CIP
o$480,196 for community agency CIP.
o$667,042 for pre-designated City project (Pacific Natural Grass) •$352,996 (20% of entitlement funds) for planning, program management and oversight.

Public Social Services
Twelve proposals were received for PSS programs totaling $752,268 which was $487,521 over the available amount of $264,747. Ten programs were recommended for funding. Two agencies were not recommended for funding in FY 2023-2024: Armenian Cultural Association, Hamazkayin and Armenian Engineers and Scientists of America.

Below is a summary table of Public Social Services final funding recommendations for FY 2023-2024:

8 The highest percentage of PSS funding is recommended for homeless services programs at 46% ($121,597). The next highest funding allocation by program type is adult counseling and case management programs at 34% ($90,150) and lastly, youth programs, which include: in-school programs, enrichment programs, afterschool programs, youth employment, and teen programs at 20% ($53,000).

In addition to the CDBG funding for PSS programs, the City uses other non-CDBG funds to leverage programs provided by community agencies. For example, the City has leveraged Section 8 Earned Administration funds and CDBG funds to fund the Housing Rights Center’s (HRC) Fair Housing Program for fair housing services and tenant landlord information. The current contract amount for the FY 2022-23 Fair Housing Program is $20,000 which includes $10,000 in CDBG funding and $10,000 in Section 8 Earned Administration funding. For FY 2023-24, a similar split is recommended for Council/Housing Authority approval: $10,150 in CDBG funding and $10,150 in Section 8 Earned Administration funding for a total of $20,300 to be allocated to the Housing Rights Center’s Fair Housing program for FY 2023-2024. Section 8 Earned Administration funding for the HRC contract is budgeted in the FY 2023-2024 Community Development Section 8 budget.

Capital Improvement Projects
Five community agencies submitted CIP proposals for consideration totaling $1,153,027.

In addition to the FY2023-2024 CIP allocation amount of $1,147,238, there was additional funding from returned, and/or canceled projects available in the amount of $1,092,322.83 from previous program years.

The Committee made a recommendation to fund one of the FY2023-2024 proposals with previous program year funds: YMCA of Glendale All-Inclusive Locker Room was fully funded with their requested $546,510.25 using prior year program funds, which was approved by the City Council/Housing Authority on April 4, 2023.

The remaining four project proposals were recommended for funding by the CDBG Advisory Committee along with City CIP Pacific Natural Grass project.

Below is a summary table of the Capital Improvement Project final funding recommendations for FY 2023-2024:

CDBG Cancelled/Unused Funds
Furthermore, staff is requesting for Council to authorize the City Manager, or a designee, to redirect excess, cancelled, or unused program funds under $50,000 from one project to another with CDBG Advisory Committee approval. This authorization will allow staff to work with the CDBG Advisory Committee to reallocate funds, should there be a need, without having to come back to Council for such a small amount.

Exhibit 3 provides a Summary List of FY 2023-24 CDBG Funds Requested and Recommended for Funding Based on Estimated and Final Allocations. A ten-year table of CDBG funding history for combined Public Social Services and Capital Improvement Projects is attached as Exhibit 8.

ESG PROGRAM:

On March 9, 2023, the CoC Board recommended funding four existing ESG community projects for FY 2023-24. Programs that were approved for funding in FY2023-24 by the CoC Board and meet their outcomes and performance goals may be recommended for renewal for FY2024-25.

The previously approved funding recommendations have been updated based on the FY 2023-24 funding allocation, which is $9,356 less than the previous year (Please refer to Exhibit 7.) Traditionally, no more than 40% of the total allocation can be used for Shelter Operations. However, during FY 2021-22, HUD waived this requirement due to the pandemic. In FY2022-23, the City is now back to the traditional methodology used for each ESG component per HUD’s recommendation.

The FY 2023-24 ESG funding recommendations are as follows:

Ascencia- Emergency Housing Program $33,703
YWCA of Glendale-Domestic Violence Housing & Emergency
Shelter Program (Rapid Re-Housing) $26,500
Repairing & Repaving of the Parking Lot, Driveway, Front Parking Lot, Homenetmen Ararat Chapter $247,500
Public Safety Improvement to NLSLA Parking Lot, Neighborhood Legal Services of LA COUNTY $120,000
FY22-23 First Floor All Inclusive Locker Room Project, YMCA of Glendale (funded with previous program year funding) $0

GRAND TOTAL $152,207
It’s important to note that State funding of $50,000 was utilized to provide additional funding to the following agencies based on the CoC Board’s recommendation:

YWCA of Glendale-Domestic Violence Housing & Emergency $38,750 Shelter Program (Rapid Re-housing)
Ascencia $11,250
Ascencia- Emergency Housing Program
HOME PROGRAM:

HOME projects are not solicited in the same manner as the CDBG and ESG programs.

Specific HOME projects are developed by the Housing Authority on an ongoing basis (through a continuous Statement of Interest that is updated periodically to reflect funding and priorities and through a RFP process when sufficient funds are available for a feasible development project). Also, as part of the process of developing the Annual Plan, HUD requires input from the community regarding housing needs and housing programs for the Housing Authority to consider when approving housing programs and projects. The HOME planning and budgeting process is currently underway and the FY 2023-2024 Affordable Housing Budget will be brought to the Housing Authority for review in June 2023. In addition to HOME funds, the Affordable Housing Budget also includes Section 8 Rental Assistance, federal CoC homeless funds, BEGIN Homeownership Program, the Affordable Housing Trust Fund expenditures, Measure S funding for the Monthly Housing Subsidy Program, and program income from Low Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund.

The funding plan for the use of HOME funds will be determined by the Housing Authority as part of the Housing Authority’s review and approval of the annual Affordable Housing Budget, with consideration given to input received regarding housing needs as part of the CDBG, ESG and HOME Annual Plan community needs assessment process.

The HOME program is one of four major housing resources addressed in the City’s 2020- 2025 Consolidated Plan. The table below shows the four major funding sources and two additional funding sources, estimated FY2023-2024 revenues from each, and percentage of total revenues for each.

CoC Homeless Competitive Funding $2,741,171 4.45%
TOTAL FUNDS $61,626,457 100%
Generally, the budget allocates most of HOME funds for use in projects and programs that increase affordable housing opportunities and supply. Based on the current housing market, the greatest opportunity for increasing the affordable housing supply in the next year is through the Affordable Rental – New Construction and Acquisition/Rehabilitation Program. HOME funds are restrictive in that they can only be used for lower income households. Other HOME fund requirements typically include: a 25% match by developers; a reserve of 15% for a Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO); federal prevailing wages for larger housing projects; a commitment of funds to a specific project within 24 months (temporarily suspended); and a requirement for expenditure of funds within five years.

The entitlement amount for HOME funds in FY 2023-24 is $1,576,169, a slight increase from the FY 2022-23 grant amount. In addition, $130,000 is also available from HOME program income for FY 2023-24 HOME projects. HOME funds from FY2023-24 and prior years represent most of the funds that will be available in FY2023-24 for new construction of affordable housing units. Therefore, it is recommended that the funding strategies for the HOME program in FY 2023-24 include:
•Affordable Rental Development-New Construction and/or Acquisition $1,299,127
•15% CHDO Reserve
$236,425

It is also recommended to appropriate $170,617 for administration to pay for costs associated with planning, reporting, project development, and compliance monitoring of HOME projects. This amount is equal to 10% of the 2023 HOME entitlement amount, plus 10% of program income.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
PUBLIC COMMENT:

HUD requires the City to publish a notice regarding CDBG, ESG and HOME funding recommendations in the newspaper, and conduct a public hearing to receive public comments. The CDBG Advisory Committee directed staff to look into additional ways to get resident comments. This year, outreach efforts included an in-person meeting at Pacific Community Center on Wednesday, April 12, 2023, a virtual Public Hearing scheduled on Thursday, April 13, 2023, as well as an option to send public comments by way of mail, email, or telephone call between March 17, 2023, to April 16, 2023.

On March 17, 2023, staff posted a public notice on the City’s webpage, social media, and in the CSP Newsletter informing residents of a public comment period of March 17, 2023 to April 16, 2023. Furthermore, on March 17, 2023 the same notice was published in the Glendale Independent. Reminder e-mails were sent out to CSP contact lists, community non-profits, HOAs, and posted on social media with reminders two to three days before the virtual meeting.

Six residents attended the in-person Public Hearing and seven attended the virtual meeting. One email comment was received and recorded, and no telephone calls were received. All comments via in-person meeting, Microsoft Teams, and email were received and recorded in Exhibit 4.

FISCAL IMPACT
The FY 2023-2024 CDBG, ESG, HOME Annual Action Plan is based on a $3,623,358 budget, which was included as a part of the FY 2023-2024 proposed budget as follows:

City staff provided a Power Point presentation which included: purpose of the meeting, a flowchart of the CDBG Annual Program Planning Process FY2023-2024; CDBG funding allocation plan, and the proposed FY2023-2024 Annual Action Plan for Community Development Block Grant, Emergency Solutions Grant, and HOME Programs; and encouraged public comment.

During the presentations, attendees were provided in depth review of the Program Planning Process Chart, each month’s process and highlights of the steps in the process to conduct the public hearing to review and obtain comments from the public regarding the proposed funding recommendations for the FY 2023-2024 CDBG, ESG and HOME programs.

Ms. Kavarian stated that the funding recommendations will be submitted to the City Council for final approval on May 23, 2023. Presentation included: Proposal Evaluation Process to the attendees and explained how City Staff receive, evaluate, and prepare the proposals for CDBG Advisory Board review. Highlights of the CDBG Advisory Board Meeting on March 3, 2023 and March 6, 2023 and the deliberation and decision making process of the Board was presented.

3. Neal Dudovitz, Neighborhood Legal Services of LA, Executive Director: My comment is the HUD funding that is provided to the Agencies for Social Service Programs; The CDBG offers great opportunity for Agencies to take advantage on providing Social Service Programs to the Community. However, the amount that is provided for Social Services Program is not enough, because it is costly and time consuming to work on the programs itself as well as provided the services to the Community. We understand that it is not in your hands, and it is something decided from HUD. However, I want to share my thoughts that the amount given to agencies to work on social programs is not enough money to process the Programs and assure all the paperwork that CDBG staff requires is being met, especially in rise in prices and fees we as Agencies are having challenging to run the programs with the limited funding provided. All Agencies have great programs that want to work with the community; unfortunately, it comes down to the amount that they are given, we see great programs being either cancelled or they are not able to offer to a large scale of the community due to the amount received. I hope that HUD increases the budget available in Social Services.

Ms. Kavarian thanked everyone for attending the meeting and officially closed the Public Hearing.

The meeting was adjourned at 8:02 p.m.

1. Mimi Malkhassian, Resident ( [email protected]):

Most cities have bus day tours, such as Alhambra, San Gabriel, San Marino, Arcadia, and S.

Pasadena. Glendale Community center does not have any bus tours. Glendale has bus trips to casino's operated by private companies almost every day. It will be nice Glendale Community center to offer trips to museums or more educational trips. For example S.

Pasadena has offered Bowers Museum, Richard Nixon Presidential Library, Aquarium of the Pacific, SoFi Stadium, Sherman Library & Gardens, Missions, temples and festivals.

Thanks, Mimi Malkhassian

X

Comments to Sections A(1), (2), (3), and (4):

Implementation of the action plan prepared for the FY 2023-2024 CDBG, ESG and HOME programs is not anticipated to have a negative impact on aesthetics as most of the projects involve public social service programs that do not propose physical changes to the existing built environment. In addition, the majority represent a continuation of existing programs that are not proposed to expand.

As such, these programs would not adversely affect scenic vistas, damage scenic resources, degrade the visual character of any sites or create substantial light or glare.

Potential aesthetic impacts could result from capital and neighborhood improvement projects that are also part of the action plan. However, these projects would be evaluated in subsequent project- specific environmental review under CEQA when specific project data becomes available.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required.

B. AGRICULTURE AND FOREST RESOURCES
In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model (1997, as updated) prepared by the California Department of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agriculture and farmland. In determining whether impacts to forest resources, including timberland, are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to information compiled by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection regarding the state’s inventory of forest land, including the Forest and Range Assessment Project and the Forest Legacy Assessment project; and forest carbon measurement methodology provided in Forest Protocols adopted by the California Air Resources Board.

Comments to Sections B(1), (2), (3), (4) and (5):

The City of Glendale does not contain any agricultural resources or lands currently zoned for agricultural uses; instead, Glendale is an urbanized area with a mixture of commercial, residential and industrial uses. Implementation of the action plan prepared for the FY 2023-2024 CDBG, ESG and HOME programs would not have a negative impact on agricultural resources because there is no “prime farmland,” “unique farmland” or “farmland of statewide importance” that could be converted to non-agricultural use; no existing zoning for agricultural use or Williamson Act contracts; and no farmland that could be converted to non-agricultural use. There is no existing zoning of forest land or timberland in the City of Glendale. No forest land could be converted to non-forest use under the proposed project.

Comments to Sections T(1), (2), (3) and (4):

Implementation of the action plan prepared for the FY 2023-2024 CDBG, ESG and HOME programs is not anticipated to have a negative impact associate with wildfires as most of the projects involve public social service programs that do not propose physical changes to the existing built environment. In addition, the majority represent a continuation of existing programs that are not proposed to expand. As such, these programs would not adversely affect wildfires.

Potential wildfire impacts could result from capital and neighborhood improvement projects that are also part of the action plan. However, these projects would be evaluated in subsequent project- specific environmental review under CEQA when specific project data becomes available.

Mitigation Measures: No mitigation measures are required.

1. Does the project have the potential to substantial
degrade the quality of the environment, substantially
reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal
community, substantially reduce the number or restrict
the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or
eliminate important examples of the major periods of
California history or prehistory?

2. Does the project have impacts that are individually
limited, but cumulatively considerable? (“Cumulatively
considerable” means that the incremental effects of a
project are considerable when viewed in connection
with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future
projects.)

3. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings,
either directly or indirectly?

Comments to Sections U(1), (2) and (3):

Implementation of the action plan for the FY 2023-2024 CDBG, ESG and HOME programs is not anticipated to degrade biological resources or the overall quality of the natural environment; eliminate important historic or prehistoric resources; have environmental effects causing substantial adverse effects on humans; or have cumulatively considerable impacts. In addition, the majority represent a continuation of existing programs that are not proposed to expand. As such, these programs are not considered cumulatively considerable.

Potential cumulative impacts could result from capital and neighborhood improvement projects that are also part of the action plan. However, these projects would be evaluated in subsequent project- specific environmental review under CEQA when specific project data becomes available.

3 CITY OF GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA

REPORT TO THE JOINT MEETING GLENDALE CITY COUNCIL AND

GLENDALE HOUSING AUTHORITY

AGENDA ITEM
Report: Appropriation of $3,697,671 in Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Funding for a Portion of the Acquisition Costs for 426 Piedmont Avenue, and for Administrative Costs.

1. City Council Resolution of Appropriation in the amount of $3,697,671 for a Portion of the Acquisition Costs for 426 Piedmont Avenue, and for Administrative Costs.

COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Action Item
Approved for June 6, 2023 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On November 15, 2022, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing submittal of a PLHA application and PLHA plan to the State of California. As an entitlement jurisdiction under the PLHA program, the City was allocated funding on a non-competitive basis in the amount of $3,697,671 for the years 2019, 2020 and 2021. The City expects to receive an estimated $1,504,479 for the years 2022 and 2023.

With City Council’s approval, staff submitted a plan to utilize PLHA funding allocations from 2019-2023 towards the acquisition and development of a multifamily affordable housing development for seniors at 426 Piedmont.

On April 11, 2023, the City received an award letter from the State of California, approving its application and 5-year plan. The intent of this item is to request Council’s approval for appropriation of the funding, consistent with the approved 5-year plan.

COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Housing: Approving the allocation of PLHA funding will enable the Glendale City Council and Glendale Housing Authority to address the demand for affordable housing. 142 of 155

23 4
2 8
6 RECOMMENDATION
That City Council approve a Resolution of Appropriation in the amount of $3,697,671 for a portion of the acquisition costs of 426 Piedmont Avenue including administrative costs.

BACKGROUND
In 2017, Governor Jerry Brown signed a 15-bill housing package aimed at addressing the state’s housing shortage and high housing costs. Specifically, it included the Building Homes and Jobs Act (SB 2), which established a $75 recording fee on real estate documents to increase the supply of affordable homes in California.

SB 2 created a dedicated revenue source for affordable housing and directed the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to make available 70 percent of the funds in the Building Homes and Jobs Trust Fund, collected on and after January 1, 2019, to local governments for eligible activities aimed at increasing affordable housing. These funds are provided through the PLHA Program.

PLHA funds are allocated to the City of Glendale noncompetitively based on the formula used under Federal law to allocate CDBG funds within California.

To receive PLHA funding, the City of Glendale was required to submit an application and 5-year plan for the use of funding for the following program years:
2019 - $867,025
2020 - $1,347,626
2021 - $1,483,020
2022-2023 - $1,504,479 (estimated)
TOTAL: $5,202,150
With Council’s approval, the City applied to use 95% of the funds toward the acquisition and development of a recently acquired site – 426 Piedmont Avenue, and 5% toward administrative costs. The site will be developed into 58-67 units of affordable housing for very low and low-income seniors.

On April 11, 2023, the state accepted the City’s PLHA application and 5-year plan and issued an award letter for the first three years of funding, totaling $3,697,671.

ANALYSIS
Based on the award letter received from the State for the first three years of PLHA funding, staff will create a new fund that will account for monies received and expended by the City under the PLHA program. The fund will receive an annual allocation from the State, with the next allocation estimated to be $1,504,479 for program years 2022 and 2023.

33 4
2 8
6 The fund’s first allocation totals $3,697,671. Per the City’s approved 5-Year PLHA plan, $3,512,787 (95%) will be allocated toward the acquisition of 426 Piedmont. $184,884 (5%) will be allocated for administrative costs
426 Piedmont Avenue was acquired for $11.9M in September 2022. At the time, PLHA funding was not yet made available to the City. Staff anticipated receiving a PLHA funding award letter in February of 2023.

In order to acquire the site, in August 2022, staff recommended the use of $5,780,000 from the City’s Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Asset Fund (LMIHAF) toward the purchase. Now that PLHA funding has been made available to the City, staff recommends allocating $3,512,787 in PLHA funding to cover a portion of acquisition cost previously allocated from the LMIHAF fund, as the LMIHAF fund no longer receives annual allocations due to the dissolution of Redevelopment Agencies in 2012. Based on the approved 5-year PLHA Plan, the anticipated 2022-2023 allocations will also be used toward the development of 426 Piedmont, and toward administrative costs.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
A Public Notice was published in the Glendale News Press on Saturday, November 5, 2022, notifying interested parties of the 5-year plan for use of PLHA Funding. The Plan was posted on Community Development Department’s website and was available at City Hall for viewing from November 4, 2022 – November 14, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT
The PLHA award of $3,697,671, for the years 2019, 2020, and 2021 was not included as a part of the FY 2022-23 budget. Therefore, staff is requesting for an appropriation of $3,697,671 from grant revenue, of which $3,512,787 will be used to cover a portion of the acquisition cost for 426 Piedmont Avenue and $184,884 will be used for administrative costs. A new fund was created to receive and expend the annual allocation of PLHA funds the City expects to receive from the State. Following is an outline of the appropriation request, consistent with the City’s PLHA 5-Year Plan:
