EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Background
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires all entitlement communities receiving Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, such as the City of Hesperia, to prepare and submit a Consolidated Plan every five (5) years to establish a unified, strategic vision for economic development, housing, and community development actions. The Consolidated Plan encompasses the analysis of local community needs and coordinates appropriate responses to those needs and priorities.
The Consolidated Plan is carried out through annual Action Plans, which provide a concise summary of the actions, activities, and the specific federal and non-federal resources that will be used each year to address the priority needs and specific goals identified in the Consolidated Plan.
Per the City’s Citizen Participation Plan (CPP), a Substantial Amendment to a Consolidated Plan and Action Plan is required when a "substantial" change is proposed as it relates to funding priorities, proposed activities, goals, and objectives. This substantial amendment to two Action Plans is necessary because the City is proposing to repurpose $1,063,171 in prior-year uncommitted CDBG funds.
In addition to amending the PY 2023 and PY 2024 Action Plans to add funds to the Street Improvement projects, the City is also amending the PY 2021 Action Plan due to $698,996 being repurposed from PY 2021. Repurposing this large sum qualifies as a "substantial" change under the CPP. Additionally, repurposing these uncommitted funds into the PY 2023 and PY 2024 Street Improvement Projects triggers a Substantial Amendment for both Action Plans.
CDBG
Uncommitted Pre-PY 2024 CDBG Funds:
2023-2024 $120,000
2022-2023 $106,122
2021-2022 $698,996
2020-2021 $108,785
2019-2020 $ 29,268
Total: $1,063,171
Sources
The City will program the following resources in this Substantial Amendment to the PY 2023 and PY 2024 Annual Action Plans and corresponding FY 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan (available at https://www.cityofhesperia.us/98/Community-Development-Block-Grant-Progra) to increase the budgets for the PY 2023 and PY 2024 Street Improvement Projects.
Pre-PY 2024 Formula CDBG: $1,063,171
TOTAL: $1,063,171
The City Council determines how CDBG funds will be used to provide decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanded economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income persons. In consultation with City staff, this submission requests approval to invest these funds in the activities listed below.
Proposed Activities
PY 2023 Street Improvement Project:
Original Allocation: $779,363
Proposed Increase: $364,175 (Uncommitted PYs 2019, 2020, 2022, & 2023) Total Proposed Budget: $1,143,538
PY 2024 Street Improvement Project:
Original Allocation: $810,781
Proposed Increase: $698,996 (Uncommitted PY 2021)

Currently, the City is waiting for its PY 2024 funds to be released into its line of credit. This is reflected in Scenario 1 below. If the City does not receive its PY 2024 allocation, then as shown under Scenario 2, the uncommitted PY 2021 funds will continue to be committed to the PY 2024 Street Improvement Project. Additionally, PY 2025 Street Improvement Funds will also be committed to the PY 2024 Street Improvement Project.
