Statement of Investment Policy
For Fiscal Year 2024-2025
PRUDENCE
Government Code Section 53600.3 provides that the "prudent investor" standard is to be used by the Treasurer as a fiduciary of public funds. This standard provides that when investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling or managing public funds, the Treasurer shall act with care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the City, that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the City. Investment officers acting in accordance with written procedures and the investment policy and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security's credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely fashion and appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments.
V. DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY
Authority to manage the City's investment program is derived from the California Government Code. Management responsibility for the investment program is hereby delegated to the Treasurer who shall be responsible for all transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of controls to regulate the activities of subordinate officials, and their procedures in the absence of the Treasurer.
The Treasurer shall establish written investment policy procedures for the operation of the investment program consistent with this investment policy.
The procedures should include references to safekeeping, wire transfer agreements, collateral/depository agreements, banking services contracts, and other investment-related activities. Such procedures shall include explicit delegation of authority to persons responsible for investment transactions. No person may engage in an investment transaction except as provided under the terms of this policy and the procedures established by the Treasurer.
The Treasurer can designate a staff person(s) to be responsible for investment transactions and to sign as a secondary signature on time deposits and other public fund accounts. The City may engage the support services of outside professionals in regard to its investment program, as 2 City of Huntington Park
Statement of Investment Policy
For Fiscal Year 2024-2025
long as it can be clearly demonstrated that these services produce a financial advantage and protection of the portfolio.
VI. OBJECTIVES
The objectives for investing and managing public funds and the order of priority are as follows:
A. Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments of the City shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective, the City will diversify its investments to the extent possible by investing in a variety of securities offering independent returns and financial institutions, as well as investing in high investment grade securities.
B. Liquidity: The City's investment portfolio shall remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet all operating requirements that are reasonably anticipated. Liquidity refers to the ability to sell an investment at any given moment with a minimal chance of losing some portion of principal or interest.
C. Yield: The City's investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the investment risk constraints and the cash flow characteristics of the portfolio.
VIl. AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS
While the Government Code Section 53600 et seq. authorizes the investment in a variety of securities, including U. S. Treasuries, U. S.
Government Agencies, Commercial Paper, Negotiable Certificates of Deposit, Repurchase Agreements, Money Market Mutual Funds, Investment Pools, among others, the City invests in the following:
A. TREASURY ISSUES: Treasury Bills, Treasury Notes, and Treasury Bonds. The maximum maturity shall not be greater than five (5) years.
B. FEDERAL AGENCIES: Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) securities, Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) securities, 3 City of Huntington Park
Statement of Investment Policy
For Fiscal Year 2024-2025
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), Federal Farm Credit Bureau (FFCB) securities, Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) securities, Small Business Administration (SBA) securities, Student Loan Marketing Association (SLMA) securities, etc. The City restricts the maximum percentage of investment in Federal Agencies to 25%, per issuer. The maximum maturity shall not be greater than five (5) years.
C. DEMAND DEPOSITS/SAVINGS ACCOUNTS: A standard account with a bank or other financial institution.
D. CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT: A type of collateralized bank deposit with a specific maturity evidenced by a certificate. The City restricts the maximum percentage of investment in Certificates of Deposit to 25% of the City's total portfolio. The maximum maturity shall not be greater than five (5) years.
E. NEGOTIABLE CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT (NCD): To be eligible Tor purchase by the City, the NCD must be issued by a Nationally or State-Chartered bank, State or Federal savings and loan association, and must meet one of the following criteria:
• Be a California Bank rated "A" or better by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO);
• Be a major national or regional bank outside California rated "A" or better by a NRSRO;
• Be a savings and loan association operating in California rated "A" or better by a NRSRO;
• Purchases of negotiable certificates of deposits may not exceed 30% of the total portfolio.
The maximum maturity shall not be greater than five (5) years.
F. LOCAL AGENCY INVESTMENT FUND (LAIF): The aggregate
of all funds from political subdivisions that are placed in the custody of the State of California Treasurer for the benefit of local agencies.
State law (California Government Code Section 16429.1)
establishes the maximum deposits for each local agency.
G. MUTUAL FUNDS AND MONEY MARKET MUTUAL FUNDS: To
be eligible for purchase by the City, the investment instruments 4 City of Huntington Park
Statement of Investment Policy
For Fiscal Year 2024-2025
must meet multiple minimum requirements. Instruments must receive the highest ranking, or the highest letter and numerical rating as provided for by a NRSRO, must comply with all investment restrictions and regulations that apply to public agencies in California Code 53601 (a-k, m-o), and must follow regulations specified by the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. Section 80a-1, et seq.).
The Treasurer is required to conduct an annual analysis of any pooled investments and money market funds for local government investment with the exception of LAIF. State statute no longer requires any further analysis of LAIF by the City Treasurer because LAIF is managed by the State Treasurer of California and is highly scrutinized by many institutions.
Vill. ETHICS AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
The Treasurer and all investment personnel shall refrain from personal business activities that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or which could impair his/her ability to make impartial investment decisions. The Treasurer and all investment personnel shall disclose to the City Manager any material financial interests in financial institutions that conduct business within this jurisdiction, and they shall further disclose any material personal financial/investment positions that could be related to the performance of the City's investment portfolio.
The State of California's Fair Political Practices Commission Statement of Economic Interests, Form 700, shall be completed on an annual basis by the Treasurer and other employees designated in Government Code Section 87200.
IX. REPORTING
In addition to general reporting and updates to the City Manager, the Treasurer will submit to each member of the City Council a periodic report (either semi-annually or annually). The report shall contain a complete description of the portfolio, including the types of investments, issuers, maturity dates, par values and current market values. In the case of funds invested in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), and funds held by trustees or fiscal agents, and current statements from those institutions will satisfy the reporting requirements. The report will also include a certification 5 City of Huntington Park
Statement of Investment Policy
For Fiscal Year 2024-2025
of the following:
"All investment activities since the last report have been made in full compliance with the investment policy."
X. INTERNAL CONTROL
The Treasurer shall establish a system of written internal controls which will be reviewed annually with the City's independent (external) auditor. The controls shall be designed to prevent loss of public funds due to fraud, employee error and misrepresentation by third parties and imprudent actions by employees of the Treasurer's Office.
XI. ADOPTION
The investment policy shall be adopted annually by resolution. 6 ITEM 4

City of Huntington Park

Huntington Park, CA 90255
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council:
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL TO RENEW AGREEMENT FOR THE
SALVATION ARMY CRISIS SHELTER BEDS PROJECT
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT CITY COUNCIL:
1. Authorize a renewal agreement with the Salvation Army for Crisis Shelter Beds for the term July 1, 2024, through June 31,2025 for a not-to-exceed amount of $31,086.25; and
2. Approve a budget appropriation in the amount of $31,086.25 using Account Number 111-9050-462.56-41 General Fund - American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funds; and
3. Authorize the City Manager to execute the extension agreement.
BACKGROUND
The City of Huntington Park is experiencing a historic rise in the number of individuals experiencing homelessness within the community. This is a nationwide problem that has significant impacts on the quality of life for businesses and the residents within the community. Individuals may be facing a variety of issues that are causing them to lose their ability to be sheltered. Historically, these issues can stem from financial difficulties, mental health issues, addictions, and other causes which have been compounded by the COVID-19 Pandemic.
The Gateway Council of Governments (COG) has established a sub-regional homeless Sumington Park, an out out Gate, Veron, and the Fist supervisory District da the County of Los Angeles as a Local Coordinating Alliance (LCA1). The purpose of the LAC1 is to coordinate resources and services to address homelessness in southeastern Los Angeles. On June 22, 2022, the City of Huntington fully executed the LCA1
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL TO RENEW AGREEMENT FOR THE
SALVATION ARMY CRISIS SHELTER BEDS PROJECT
July 2, 2024
Reimbursement Agreement and the Salvation Army Collaborator Agreement. The LCA1 Shelter Bed Pilot Program initiated services with its first client intake on July 13, 2022.
Prior to the initiation of the LCA1 Shelter Bed Pilot Program, the City's only available resource to serve unhoused individuals was the overburdened Continuum of Care (CoC) system, which limited the LCA1 City's ability to directly address local homelessness issues based on the availability of shelter beds at the moment of client need.
The LCA1 partnered with the Salvation Army for 36 crisis shelter beds to house individuals experiencing homelessness that are at least 18 years old and are low barrier/low demand. The shelter has provided a litany of support services as part of the intake of homeless individuals during its current term between July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025. The shelter bed has been a resource to encourage un-housed individuals to get the help that they need and provide Public Safety staff with a tool that they can continue to utilize to encourage people experiencing homelessness to be in a safe environment.
As of April 29, 2024, 81 LCA1 (95 including District 1 Four Beds) clients have been supported by the 40 beds in the LCA1 Shelter Bed Pilot Program (80% of target of 120 clients served in Year 2). Per our last Weekly Report on June 16, 2024, there are 6 Huntington Park individuals receiving support services. Overall, there have been 23 clients that have exited the program into housing. Ten (10) clients have been referred by LCA 1 City staff, with twelve (12) clients have been referred by law enforcement agencies. Forty (40) clients were referred by the LAHSA (Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority) Teams, Department of Mental Health referred eight (8) clients, PATH (People Assisting the Homeless) referred 4, AFH (American Family Housing) referred 3, Salvation Army referred 2, ICV (Inner City Visions) referred 7 and 8 referrals were self-referrals.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City of Huntington Park would be responsible for their fair share (1/8th) of the agreement divided equally between the agencies. The term for consideration tonight is from July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025, at the cost of $31,086.25. The agreement would be allocated from the ARPA Funds.
It is an allowable expenditure from these funds. The final cost to the City of Huntington Park is determined based on $520,000 in Measure H Innovation Grant Funds reimbursed from the Gateway Cities Council of Governments, and the approval of the Reimbursement Agreement by the LCA1 cities of Bell Gardens, Commerce, Cudahy, Huntington Park, Bell, Maywood, South Gate, and Vernon to share the remaining costs equally.

THIS REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into as of July _ 2024 ("Effective Date") by and among the CITY OF BELL, a California charter city ("Bell"), the CITY OF BELL GARDENS, a California general law city ("Bell Gardens"), the CITY OF COMMERCE, a California general law city ("Commerce"), the CITY OF CUDAHY, a California general law city ("Cudahy"), the CITY OF HUNTINGTON PARK, a California general law city ("Huntington Park"), the CITY OF MAYWOOD, a California general law city "Maywood"), the CITY OF SOUTH GATE, a California gencral law city ("South Gate"), and the CITY OF VERNON, a California charter city and municipal corporation ("Vernon" collectively referred to herein as the "LCAI Members" and/or the "Parties".
RECITALS
A. The cities of Bell, Bell Gardens, Commerce, Cudahy, Huntington Park, Maywood, South Gate, and Vemon are members of a Local Coordinating Alliance 1 ("LCAI"), a cooperative working group of eight (8) entities developed within the Gateway Cities Council of Govemments for subregional homeless services coordination in the Southeast Los Angeles subregion of Service Planning Area 7 ("SPA 7"). The LCA1 Members have agreed to coordinate resources and services to address homelessness in the Southeastern Los Angeles region within a provisional pilot program as described / outlined pursuant to the terms in this Agreement.
B. Los Angeles County Supra District) ("County" will separately participate with The Salvation Army for the same services as set forth herein pursuant to a separate agreement directly with the Salvation Army Bell Shelter.
C. A "Shelter Bed" is defined as an occupancy placement within a crisis housing bed or a bridge housing bed within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter located at 5600 Rickenbacker Rd, Bell, CA 90201, for a single adult (age 18 or over) participant referred into a program of comprehensive homeless support services within such shelter. Depending on the service needs of the particular unhoused individual, initial placement may occur in a crisis housing bed that is operated with a low barrier design or in a bridge housing bed. Both crisis and bridge housing beds are intended to provide a safe and supportive twenty-four (24) hour residence to individuals experiencing homelessness while enabling assistance for them to obtain permanent housing. A low barrier design program is one in which no participant that is placed within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter shall be required to commit to sobriety, or to commit to an adherence to medications for physical or mental health conditions. Low barrier crisis housing beds are expected to be provided at the Salvation Army Bell Shelter in Building 1E. Bridge housing beds are expected to be provided at the Salvation Army Bell Shelter sober living dormitories in Building 2A/B for participants who prefer to live in a more stable environment. The number of beds provided in each housing type will be flexible to accommodate the shifting needs of the participants at any time.
It is expected that a number of participants entering the pilot program will have significant barriers to employment and housing. The Parties expect that there will be an on-site Salvation Army Bell Shelter employee who will provide group and individual psychotherapy for participants who need an advanced level of support Client level data for this pilot program will be entered into the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority's ("LAHSA") Homeless Management Information F. The LCAl Members currently participate in the Los Angeles County Coordinated Entry System ("County CES"), which provides for placements of individuals experiencing homelessness within occupiable shelter beds in Los Angeles County.
Due to the high demand for shelter beds within Los Angeles County, a shelter bed may not be immediately available to address the needs of the local unhoused population in the Southeast Los Angeles County subregion. Thus, the City of Bell has negotiated an agrement with The Salvation Army to procure the prioritized use of thirty-six (36) shelter beds for the eight (8) participating LCAl Members, in recognition of the local impacts of homelessness experienced by the LCAI Members.
The LCA1 Members, have collectively designated the City of Bell as the lead agency to coordinate the implementation of the pilot program proposed by this Agreement for the placement of homeless individuals within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter in an effort to address the unhoused population that the LCA1 Members seek to assist.
H. This pilot program will require a great deal of cooperation among the LCAl Members in order to enable the efficient placement of homeless individuals currently to a Shelter Bed within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter.
1. The Salvation Army Bell Shelter, one of the largest shelters in the nation, is located and the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, in recognition of the homeless housing impacts experienced by the LCA1 Members, has agreed to contract with the City of Bell for thirty-six (36) prioritized Shelter Beds to be allocated to the LCAI Members' homeless population, based on certain conditions. 01135.0001/536707.2 -2-
J. The City of Bell will take the lead on behalf of the LCA! Members plus the County to coordinate the prioritized use of forty (40) Shelter Beds within the Salvation Army Shelter through a Momcless Liaison (as such term is defined below), which shall be a designated staff member selected by the City of Bell to implement the pilot program under this Agreement that is separately funded by a Measure H Innovation Fund Grant reimbursement through the Gateway Cities Council of Governments.
K. To this end, the City of Bell and The Salvation Army, a California corporation ("Salvation Army'") have entered into an agreement, dated July _!, 2024, as set forth in Exhibit A (the "Salvation Army Agreement"), whereby the City of Bell, has acquired the prioritized right for thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, and additional supportive services to serve the LCA1 Members' homeless housing population.
L. Separalely, the City of Bell, as lead agency, applied for and received a $520,000 Measure H Innovation Fund Grant ("Measure H Grant") from the Gateway Cities Council of Governments, which reduces the total cost of this pilot program to the eight (8) LCA1 Members. With Measure H Grant funds, the total estimated cost of the Salvation Army Agreement to the eight (8) participating LCA1 Members would be reduced from $768,690 to $248,690. In return for the Mcasure H Grant award, the LCAI Members agree that if the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds cannot be filled by the LCA1 Members, open placements will be made available to other SPA 7 communities with pre-approval of the designated Homeless Liaison. The total number of SPA 7 placements from outside of the eight (8) LCAl Members may not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds, which is cighteen (18) out of the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds at any one time. Placements will not be available to other SPA 7 communities through this Agreement until Shelter Bed occupancy drops below nincty percent (90%) occupancy, or thirty-three (33) of the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds.
M. The City of Bell shall appoint an individual to serve as a liaison to all LCAI Members and the County (the "Homeless Liaison"), and shall work with the participating LCAl Members and the County to coordinate the use of the prioritized Shelter Beds within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter in addition to any other beds that are made available through the County CES.
N. The Shelter Beds are designed to provide the LCAI Members with an additional inventory of homeless shelter beds to address the significant impacts of homelessness the LCAl Members are experiencing. If any individuals choose to leave a placement at the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, either of their own volition or for violating the rules and policies of the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, they will add to the unhoused population in the communities of the Southcast Los Angeles ubregion. Thus, the pilot program proposed by the LCAl Members is designed t rovide an enhanced level of support, resources, and communication in order t nsure any placement of individuals within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter remai or as long as reasonably possibl
01135.0001/536707.2 -3-
O. The LCA1 Members agree that the costs of this Agreement will be shared equally among all of the LCA1 Members and they shall be required to pay their equal share cach quarter during the term of this Agreement. If a LCAl Member chooses to withdraw from this Agreement, other cities within the SPA 7 area may be added to this Agreement with priority provided to communities closest to the Salvation Army Bell Shelter (which addition may require an amendment or supplement to this Agreement as determined by the City of Bell). The intent of the LCAI Members is to retain a minimum of cight (8) participating entities, in order to ensure, i) that the cost of this Agreement is not prohibitive for any one member and, ii) that the Shelter Beds remain ninety percent (90%) occupied during the term of this Agreement.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the preceding recitals and the mutual covenants hercinafter contained, the Parties agrec as follows:
Section 1. Incorporation of Recitals. The recitals set forth above are hereby acknowledged and agreed to by the Parties and are incorporated in the terms of this Agreement. Specifically, the City of Bell is acknowledged and agreed to as the lead agency, and its appointed Homeless Liaison is acknowledged and agreed to, for purposes of this Agreement.
Section 2. Term: Termination.
(a) The term of this Agreement will commence on July 1, 2024 and end on June 30, 2025 (the "Term") for a total of 365 days.
(b) In addition, this Agreement may be terminated after July I, 2024, (i) at the convenience of any LCAl Member following thirty (30) days prior written notice to the City of Bell, and/or (ii) upon a termination of the Salvation Army Agreement by the Salvation Army or the City of Bell pursuant to the terms of the Salvation Army Agreement.
The City of Bell, as lead agency, may replace any party that terminates this Agreement with another city within the SPA7 area that executes an acknowledgement and acceptance of the terms of this Agrcement (which, at the City of Bell's discretion, may require an amendment to this Agreement).
In the event of any termination by a LCAl Member after July 1, 2024, and a replacement SPA 7 city is not immediately available to take such terminating Party's share of the costs/payments required herein, then the equitable share of costs for this Agreement (along with the allocation of the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds for all LCAI Members) provided in Section 3 below shall be adjusted accordingly.
Section 3. Cost and Payment. It is agreed and acknowledged that the Parties will share the costs of this pilot program equally, and that, regardless of any ability of the City of Bell, the Homeless Liaison, and / or the Salvation Army Bell Shelter to actually enable the utilization of any Shelter Bed within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter for any LCAI Member's homeless population, each LCAl Member shall be required to pay the monthly 01135.0001/536707.2 -4-
amount due under this Agreement on the first day of each month of the Term of this Agreement to the City of Bell in order for the City of Bell to pay any and all monthly invoices received from the Salvation Army without delay. If the invoice received by the City of Bell from the Salvation Army for the use of the Shelter Beds in any given month is less than the amount collectively paid by the LCA! Members for such month, then the City of Bell shall promptly refund any such overcharge to each of the LCAl Members on an equal basis.
As the City of Bell, as lead agency, was successful in procuring $520,000 in Measure H Grant funds from the Gateway Cities Council of Governments, the total cost for each of the Parties (as set forth below) is proportionally reduced during the term of the Measure H Grant fund term.
Total Agreement Cost
The total cost of the Salvation Army Agreement is $768,690 calculated at thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds per day at a cost of $58.50 pcr bed / per day for 365 days.
The City of Bell will invoice the Gateway Cities Council of Governments for $520,000 in Mcasure H Grant fund reimbursements, which would reduce the total cost of this Agreement to $248,690.
Los Angeles County First Supervisorial District will enter directly into a separate agreement with the Salvation Army Bell Shelter for four (4) additional Shelter Beds, to bring the total number of coordinated Shelter Beds in the Southeast Los Angeles subregion to forty (40) under this pilot program.
The eight (8) LCA! Members will be invoiced monthly by the City of Bell for an cqual one-eighth (1/8"*) share. Each of the eight (8) LCAl Members will be billed a maximum of $31,086.25 of the remaining Agreement after Measure H Innovation Grant reimbursement of $248,690.
Quarterly Invoice
The City of Bell, as lead agency, will submit the quarterly invoice (3 monthly invoices) it receives from the Salvation Army pursuant to the Salvation Army Agreement, to each LCAl Member upon five (10) business days of its reccipt therefor, with, if applicable, backup documentation and related reports for the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds.
Section 4. Specifications. The availability and use of the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds allocated to each LCAl Member shall be subject to the following specifications. In recognition of the complexity of the daily operations of the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, and the unknown personal, regional, and local factors which affect Shelter Bed availability, the Parties agree that a high level of communication, coordination, and flexibility is necessary to effectively use all available Shelter Beds, and to refrain from submitting Shelter Bed placements when inventory is not available. There is no guarantee that Shelter Bed is available at any specific time, as the complex and shifting factors that affect Shelter Bed inventory are beyond the control of the City of Bell and the Salvation Army 01135.0001/536707.2 -5-
Bell Shelter. The purpose of this pilot program is to incrcase coordination and communication on homelessness within the LCAl subregion, to develop data at a subregional level, and to develop improved and effective partnerships on a subregional levcl with regional service providers and nonprofit entities. (a) Initial Use of Crisis Housing Bed Inventory. Upon the notice from the Salvation Army of availability of Shelter Beds within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter, ten percent (10%) of the thirty-six (36) beds will be designated as public safety priority beds for emergency use by the public safcty agencies of all LCAl Members, for a total of four (4) beds. The remaining ninety percent (90%), or thirty-two (32) beds, will be prioritized as four (4) general inventory beds per each LCAl Member. This distribution equals eight (8) LCA I Members times four (4) beds cach for a general inventory of thirty- two (32) beds. Initial intake into a public safety priority bed shall also require participation from a public safety agency (e.g., Bell Police Department, Bell Gardens Police Department, Los Angeles County Sheriff, South Gate Police Department, Vernon Police Department, ctc.). Once the new resident is placed in a public safety bed and completes the facility intake process, they will be rotated from the priority public safety bed into one of the thirty- (wo (32) general beds, if a general bed is available. If the LCAl Members cannot fill the Shelter Bed inventory, and the Shelter Bed occupancy drops below ninety percent (90%), the Homeless Liaison may refer participants from non LCAl Member SPA 7 cities to ensure that the Shelter Bed inventory is used efficiently up to a maximum of eighteen (18) non LCAI Member SPA 7 placements at any one time. The LCA 1 Members shall use best efforts to efficiently and effectively coordinate the shared use of available Shelter Beds to maintain ninety percent (90%) occupancy and meet their specific local needs depending on bed availability. The Salvation Army has agreed, pursuant to the Salvation Army Agreement to coordinate in good faith to plan transfers of homeless individuals to other available support programs, based on participant eligibility (i.e., Veteran's Administration program shelter beds, Department of Mental Health program shelter beds, Substance Abuse Prevention and Control program shelter beds) to increase the annual number of participants that can benefit from the thirty-six (36) prioritized Shelter Beds under the Salvation Army Agreement. The LCAl Members acknowledge and agree that the thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds are not actually reserved or dedicated to the LCAl Members' homeless population, but are merely prioritized to them under the Salvation Army Agreement. Each week there shall be an analysis of the occupancy of Shelter Beds and allocations will be made available to each of the LCAl Members through the Homeless Liaison in coordination with the LCA I Members. As such, the effectiveness of this pilot program requires cooperation and consistent communication between the LCA1 Members and the Homeless Liaison, given the fluidity of available bed occupancy (and the rotation in and out of such beds by homeless individuals).
Recalculation of Crisis Housing Bed Inventory. To ensure the full and efficient use of the thirty-six (36) prioritized Shelter Beds, cooperation and communication between the Parties is cssential. Informal analysis and recalculation of Shelter Bed use ratios shall occur every week during the Term of this Agreement, and as needed, to use the available Shelter Beds efficiently. Thereafter, quarterly reviews will occur to determine the efficient use of the Shelter Beds, and the effectiveness of this pilot program and how it could be improved. Shelter Bed inventory flexibility is critical to effectively address 01135.0001/536707.2 -6-
conditions in the field (given the fact that individuals placed within the Salvation Army Bell Shelter will likely be rotating in and out frequently) and in order to assess the success of program participants in receiving housing placement. As this program is a pilot program and requires participant flexibility, all Parties will designate a public safety contact and a staff contact for the Homeless Liaison to coordinate activities and improve communication, each of which are designated on the signature page for each of the Parties below. (c) Shelter Bed Availability Limitations. If the Salvation Army Bell Shelter is experiencing COVID-19 quarantine limits or holds on resident intake upon the execution of the Salvation Army Agreement, the Salvation Army Bell Shelter will not initiate invoicing for Shelter Beds until the beds are available. Limitations on Shelter Bed availability may exist depending on the number of available Shelter Beds in the Salvation Army Bell Shelter's daily inventory. The Salvation Army Bell Shelter does not provide family shelter resources; thus LCAl Members must coordinate placement of any such families to other shelters through the Homeless Liaison during business hours or call 211 (www.211la.org) to find suitable shelter or motel options for families in need. The Salvation Army Bell Shelter does not provide a kenncl to shelter the pets of unhoused individuals in need. The thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds addressed in this Agreement are merely a supplement to the shelter beds available through the County CES.
New resident intake shall occur during regular business hours of 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM, Monday through Friday. The Salvation Army Bell Shelter provides 24 hour a day, seven day a week staffing, however the shelter has an inventory of four (4) safe rooms for intake and staff are required to perform COVID-19 protocols upon intake that limit the ability of the shelter to perform intake outside of regular business hours.
After hours domestic violence and/or other emergency placements are subject to the availability of an unoccupied safe room at the Salvation Army Bell Shelter. Emergency intake is available after hours, however due to a limited number of available safe rooms and due to COVID-19 protocols, after hours intake should only be for mergency situations. An after-hours call line that operates 24 hours a day will be provided to participating public safety agencies for use in the event of an after-hours emergency.
Length of Stay. Each participant will be limited to an initial stay of ninety (90) days. Two (90) day extensions are available upon request for participants actively working on a housing plan, for a maximum stay of 270 days for any individual participant.
(1) COVID-19 Protocols and Processes. The Salvation Army Bell Shelter restarted limited intake of residents into quarantine facilities on August 19, 2021. COVID- 19 protocols for intake include but are not limited to, i) any incoming participant is tested on the day of or on the day after intake regardless of vaccine status, il) if an incoming participant is vaccinated, the participant may move into a public safety prioritized bed. If a participant is not vaccinated, they must remain in quarantine until two negative COVID- 19 tests are received. The second test occurs seven to eight days after the first, with results generally available within three days. Modular homes located on the greater Salvation Army Bell complex property serve as a first line of intake quarantine and are subject to availability.
01135.0001/536707.2 -7-
Homeless Liaison. The Homeless Liaison will coordinate daily with assigned Salvation Army Bell Shelter staff, in order to determine the daily inventory on weekdays of Shelter Bed availability and the roster of shelter residents, however, it shall not be required to ensure the availability of all thirty-six (36) Shelter Beds since such beds are only prioritized, they are not specifically reserved, and the LCAl Members must coordinate with the Homeless Liaison in order to ensure allocation of Shelter Beds for proposed participants. The Homeless Liaison will coordinate daily with assigned LCAl public safety agency assigned staff (as designated on the signature page to this Agreement) to report shelter bed inventory availability and to determine any planned public safety needs. The Homeless Liaison will coordinate daily with designated Salvation Army Bell Shelter staff to determine how many residents can be transferred to general bed inventory or to other programs to maximize Shelter Bed use. The City of Bell and the Homeless Liaison shall have no liability for any failure to ensure a placement of any LCAl Member's proposed participant / homeless population within a Shelter Bed. (h) Reporting.
(i) Reporting by Salvation Army Bell Shelter: It is expected that the Salvation Army Bell Shelter will provide, i) daily inventory counts to the Homeless Liaison and, ii) a monthly report and invoice to the City of Bell and the Homeless Liaison. (ii) Reporting by the Homeless Liaison: the Homeless Liaison will reasonably endeavor to provide: i) a monthly report and the Salvation Army Bell Shelter invoice it received to all participating LCAl cities and, i) a quarterly report to the LCAI Members and the Gateway Cities Council of Governments.
(iii) Participant level data will be entered into the LAHSA HMIS system for program reporting and auditing purposes.
(iv) The following metrics and expected outcome measures will be reasonably tracked and reported: i) a minimum of one hundred (120) unduplicated individuals will be served each year during the Term of this Agreement, ji) twenty percent (20%) of participants (of those able to work -e.g. not disabled or retired) will be employed by the expected exit date and, iil) thirty percent (20%) of participants will exit to permanent housing and, iv) eighty five percent (85%) of participants will complete a housing plan other stable housing local on. ever, tie sit be no hair or anyone are or there shall be no liability to any of the Parties if
Section 6. Defaults and Indemnification Provisions.
Defaults. In the event any of the Parties shall fail to pay its required share of the costs of the Shelter Beds in any given month during the Term of this Agreement (or any extension approved by the Parties), then such party shall be in immediate default under this Agreement, and the City of Bell shall be entitled to, and may sue for, the payment of all such unpaid amounts (and the defaulting party shall pay interest at the lesser of (i) 10% 01135.0001/536707.2 -8-
per annum, or (ii), the maximum rate permitted by law) from and after the due date of such monetary payment obligation until payment is actually received.

1. Introduction
As detailed in the following section, the City developed its five-year 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and 2024-25 Annual Action Plan through consultation with City departments; housing and public service providers; and adjacent local governments.
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 developed its five-year 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan through consultation with City departments; housing and public service providers; adjacent local governments and community input. As a means of gaining input from housing, homeless and social service providers, the City conducted phone interviews and email surveys to gain input from several agencies that directly impact the areas of need. Based on the results of the surveys and interviews, the City was able to make informed decisions on how to use the HUD funds to assist those in need.
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 City participates in Service Planning Area (SPA) 7 of the Continuum of Care for Los Angeles City and County, and coordinates with the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), local communities and various service agencies to provide a continuum of services and facilities for the homeless and persons at-risk of becoming homeless. As the lead agency, LAHSA helps coordinate efforts among agencies, businesses, community leaders, government agencies and elected officials to determine priority needs and services from local, regional, and county-wide basis. According to HUD, a CoC is "a community plan to organize and deliver housing and services to meet the specific needs of people who are homeless as they move to stable housing and maximize self-sufficiency. It includes action steps to end homelessness and prevent a return to homelessness." HUD identifies four necessary parts of a continuum:
• Outreach, in-take, and assessment
• Emergency shelter
• Transitional housing with supportive services
• Permanent & permanent supportive housing with services if needed Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards for and evaluate Annual Action Plan 7

outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS The City is not a direct recipient of Emergency Solution Grant (ESG) funds. However, the City collaborates with various agencies, such as Inner-City Visions, to address the needs of the homeless or at risk of homelessness within the community. In addition, the City continues to work with LAHSA to assist in their mission to create a strategic vision that creates solutions for the crisis of homelessness grounded in compassion, equity, and inclusion.

AP-60 Public Housing - 91.220(h)
Introduction
The information provided below is for educational purposes only:
This section does not apply to the City of Huntington Park, as the City does not directly administer a public housing or Section 8 program. The Housing Assistance Voucher (formerly Section 8) Rental Assistance Program is administered by the Los County Development Authority (LACDA).
LACDA administers the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program assists very low-income families, the elderly, and the disabled to afford decent, safe, and sanitary housing in the private market.
At this time, a family cannot be added to the LACDA's HCV Program waiting list for traditional or special- purpose vouchers without a referral. The LACDA's HCV Program continually accepts referrals from a Coordinated Entry System (CES) and/or other partnering agencies.
Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing LACDA is proposing the following major changes to the Public Housing during the 2024-2025 program year:
• Provide a waiting list preference for justice involved elderly families that were previously incarcerated or have conviction histories with obstacles to accessing or securing stable and affordable housing
• LACDA will provide no less than 30 days advanced notification of lease termination due to nonpayment of rent.
Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership.
The LACDA's five-year voluntary Family Self Sufficiency program requires Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) to develop strategies, such as job training, homeownership programs, scholarships, tuition reimbursement, childcare and transportation, to help public housing residents obtain employment that will lead to economic independence. In addition, the City will provide outreach and workshops to the community to inform them of housing opportunities within the community. Currently, there are a total of 980 FSS graduates.

Discussion
The City of Huntington Park's does not have its own Housing Assistance Voucher (formerly Section 8) Rental Assistance Program; however, one is administered by the LACDA that were originally issued and now in use in Huntington Park. As a high performing PHA, LACDA is well- positioned to continue providing affordable housing within the City and the County as a whole.

65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities - 91.220(i) Introduction
Homelessness is a continuing problem throughout California and urban areas nationwide. A homeless count conducted by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) in 2023 indicated that on any given day there are an estimated 75,518 homeless persons in Los Angeles County. Huntington Park is located within the Service Planning Area (SPA) 7, which had a 2023 homeless estimate of 6,511 people.
For homeless individuals or those at-risk of becoming homeless, the most significant problem is the lack of affordable rental housing. This problem has been compounded by decreases in available funding through Section 8 and HOME and the loss of Redevelopment Housing funds.
For chronically homeless persons and transitional age youth, there is an insufficient inventory of transitional housing and permanent housing with supportive services designed to meet the specific needs of these populations. These residents often struggle with physical and mental health problems in addition to substance abuse issues.
The City continues to cooperate with various social agencies, low-income housing advocates and affordable housing providers to address the underserved needs of Huntington Park residents. The City works with partners and public service providers like Inner City Visions, Fair Housing Foundation, and HUB Cities to address homeless needs.
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including
The City's one-year goal is to continue to support public service agencies like Inner City Visions and Fair Housing that serve those at risk of homeless and homeless with CDBG funds. The city will use its HOME-ARP funds to acquire and rehabilitate for non-congregate housing to reduce and work towards ending homelessness.
Additionally, the City will continue to partner with services providers such as, the Southeast Churches Service Center and the Salvation Army Southeast Communities, who provide referrals and transportation to the nearby Salvation Army Bell Shelter in the City of Bell. The Bell Shelter assesses the individual needs of homeless persons including case management, supportive and transitional housing, individual or group counseling, a drug and alcohol program, job search assistance, homeless veteran's reintegration, adult education, and a mobile medical clinic. Last, the City of Huntington Park Police Department (HPPD) is part of the Southeast Regional Mental Evaluation Team (SERMET), a successful mental health and homeless outreach partnership with the Los) Angeles County Department of Mental Health. SERMET facilitates police officers and mental health clinicians to work together to provide support and resources to the mentally ill Annual Action Plan 32

and homeless population in the community. Resources include outreach, referral services to other institutions, and assistance with housing. Homeless individuals or families and those at risk of homelessness had the opportunity to get connected to supportive services, treatments, public resources, and support groups through the Salvation Army Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
The City does not have emergency shelters within its boundaries, however a regional shelter is located in the adjacent of City of Bell. The Bell Shelter offers programs that include case management, substance abuse rehabilitation, counseling, on-site health care and medical referrals, computer and job training search programs, veterans' reintegration programs, and life skills classes. Adult educational and ESL classes are offered as well through the LA Unified School District (LAUSD), which can lead to different vocational certificates. The County of Los Angeles Department of Mental Health provides an array of services through various agencies throughout the County.
The City will continue to fund subrecipients such as Inner-City Visions who conduct outreach in the community and supportive services to assist homeless persons after assessing their individual needs.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City of Huntington Park addresses the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons through various programs. The CDBG program is an integral funding source to address this need in addition to the HOME ARP funds that will be used to acquire and rehabilitate non-congregate housing in the community soon.
The City has also amended its Zoning Ordinance to permit emergency shelters with up to 30 beds in the Manufacturing Planned Development (MPD) zone by right and emergency shelters with more than 30 beds, subject to a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). All of which are subject to the same development and management standards as other permitted uses in the zone. The City's MPD development standards are appropriate to facilitate emergency shelters. There are many instances of emergency housing that eventually lose upkeep and CUPs will provide a guide and requirements for adequate housing. The discretionary actions and conditions of approval will provide regulation for housing amenities, operations, management, security/safety, and transit accessibility is vital to the development of Emergency Housing. 30 beds are manageable and any more would require more stringent requirements, staffing, and Annual Action Plan 33
2024

security to protect the homeless population.
The Winter Shelter Program is held annually to protect people experiencing homelessness during Los Angeles's colder months. Winter Shelters are held across the County and operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week from November 2023 through March 2024. To have access to the winter shelter program you must be at least 18 years old or older and experiencing homelessness. Shelters serve 3 meals a day and welcome pets and emotional support animals.
All shelters have a two (2) bag restriction. There is transportation for those in need. The Whittier First Day shelter serves SPA 7 for males and females located in 12426 Whittier Blvd., Whittier 90602.
The Weather-Activated Shelter Program through the Salvation Army is a short-term weather- activated emergency response to provide individuals experiencing homeless a safe and supportive short-term shelter during severely inclement weather. This program operates to protect individuals from rain and cold weather to avoid conditions such as hypothermia, pneumonia, and other conditions caused by cold temperatures.
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 period 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.
The City helps homeless individuals and families avoid becoming homeless make the transition to permanent housing by working closely with LACDA to promote its Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program which encourages families to pursue goals of furthering their education, training, and employability in an effort to secure funds for 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.
Several 2024 activities are aimed at preventing homelessness:
• The City administer Emergency Rental Assistance Program which offers residents with Annual Action Plan 34
2024
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
up to three months of rent payments in arrears
• Fair Housing Foundation prevents homelessness among residents at risk of eviction • Inner City Vision provide services and resources that help families gain financial independence
• Salvation Army provide food assistance and other services to help families allocate scarce financial resources to housing needs.
Discussion
In an ongoing effort to address the necessities of the homeless and those at risk of homelessness, the City focuses on the development of rational and effective programming, which consist all of partnerships with service providers capable of leveraging other funding, the ability to create or secure affordable housing, perform homeless case management, and engage with the homeless through a street outreach component to connect them to available services.
The City's overall objective is to expand on current homeless programs and activities within a larger emphasis on homeless veterans and families to accommodate with.
The City works with Fair Housing Foundation to provide a wide range of fair housing services to assure equal housing opportunities for its residents. Individuals or families who are homeless and those at jeopardy of homelessness will have the opportunity to get associated with supportive services, treatments, public resources, and support groups through the Salvation Army. Those in lower income households who overpay for housing are more likely to be at risk of becoming homeless upon loss of employment. The City will also consult with the LACDA to provide for Section 8 rental assistance to homeless individuals and families, which those at risk of becoming homeless may also be included.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing - 91.220(j)
Introduction:
The City has had a strong history of supporting affordable housing. In this effort the City has adopted numerous provisions within the Zoning Ordinance that facilitates a range of residential development types and encourages affordable housing. Those provisions include flexible development standards for affordable housing, a density bonus ordinance, and reasonable accommodation procedures for persons with disabilities.
The primary barrier to the provisions of affordable housing in Huntington Park, besides funding constraints, are the lack of vacant land that is suitable for residential development. Separate owners of smaller parcels hold much of the underdeveloped and residentially zoned lands in the City, which calls for alternative policy tools. To accommodate for higher density infill developments, these tools consist of lot consolidation and/or demolition of existing structures that are old.
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
To remove and ameliorate the negative impacts of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing, the City's Planning Department has been tasked with reviewing their long- term strategy documents to develop a well-rounded guide the City can use moving forward to promote integration and preventing low-income housing concentration. During the 2024-2025 program year, the City's plans to ameliorate the negative effects of public policies include but are not limited to:
• Maintain affordability controls on government-assisted housing units in the City. • Facilitate the development of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and permit streamlining techniques to provide affordable housing opportunities in existing neighborhoods.
• Promote the rehabilitation of room additions to alleviate overcrowding. • Strengthen multi-family neighborhoods through a partnership with nonprofits in the acquisition and rehabilitation of deteriorated properties and provision of long-term affordable housing.
• Monitor all regulations, ordinances, departmental processing procedures, and fees related to the rehabilitation and construction of housing units to assess the impact on housing costs.

Introduction:
The City has identified long-range strategies, activities, and funding sources to implement the goals in the areas of housing and community development services for the benefit of the residents.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs • The City will continue to seek other grant resources and funding sources to address the obstacles in order to meet the community's underserved needs, which is the lack of funding and/or inadequate funding.
• The City will look for more innovative and creative ways to make its delivery systems comprehensive and continue existing partnerships with both for-profit and non-profit • The City is currently addressing certain housing needs with federal funds such as availability, condition, and fair housing practices to prevent homelessness. • The City is also addressing community development needs with federal funds such as infrastructure, improving public facilities and enhanced code enforcement.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City plans to continue the Emergency Rental Assistance Program through CDBG-CV to assist those affected by COVID-19 with their rent.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
To better protect children and families against lead poisoning, in 1999 HUD instituted and revised lead based paint regulations to focus more around the following five activities:
• Notification
• Lead Hazard Evaluation
• Lead Hazard Reduction
• Ongoing Maintenance
Response to Children with Environmental Intervention Blood Lead Level The City has implemented HUD Lead Based Paint Regulations (Title X), that requires federally funded rehabilitation projects to address lead hazards. Lead-based paint abatement is part of the City's Home Repair Program. Elimination or encapsulation remedies are implemented if Annual Action Plan 38
2024
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
lead is detected and is paid for through HOME funds, as appropriate.
The Community Development Department coordinates the City's efforts to reduce lead-based paint hazards pursuant to HUD Lead Based Paint Regulations (Title X). To reduce lead in existing households, all rehabilitation and home repair projects that are funded with HOME are tested for lead and asbestos. When a lead-hazard is seen as present, a lead consultant is hired to provide abatement or implementation of interim controls.
As part of the City's Home Repair Programs, grants will be offered to eligible households for lead hazard remediation such as interior and exterior painting, window and door replacement and other types of abatement. Lead pamphlets are also distributed to promotes education for owners and tenants to help prevent childhood lead poising. Eligible families must meet the following criteria:
• Single and Multi-Family properties in the City constructed prior to 1978. • Positive levels of lead-based paint, in poor condition. • One or more-bedroom units
• Low-Income Families with children under six (6) years of age that reside or visit the property.
Last, the City's Home Repair program addresses health and safety issues before providing assistance with weatherization, exterior paint, roof repairs, among other corrective items.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families Based on the Consolidated Plan's Needs Assessment and available funds for program year 2024-25, the City will allocate available resources (CDBG and HOME) to support public service programs for the benefit of low to moderate-income residents. In order to provide community enrichment programming, affordable housing, case management services and development of life skills and self-sufficiency, the City will expand and create new partnerships with service providers and community-based organizations. Action to be taken:
• Allocating at minimum 15 percent of CDBG entitlement funds for public services to increase family stability for lower income households.
Additionally, the City encourages social service providers, the government, housing providers/developers and the private sector to provide services and development programs that enhance job opportunities for Huntington Park residents, particularly low-income individuals.
The City will fully comply with Section 3 of the Housing and Community Development Act to Annual Action Plan 39
2024
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
help foster local economic development and individual self-sufficiency. This set of regulations requires that the City provide job training, employment, and contracting opportunities for low or very low-income residents in connection with housing and public construction projects.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
As the recipient of CDBG and HOME funds, the City has delegated the Community Development Department to be the lead department responsible for the overall administration of HUD grants. Furthermore, the department will prepare the Consolidated Plan every five years, the Annual Action Plan and CAPER, as well as other reports required by federal rules and regulations. The Community Development Department will prepare the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice. The Community Development staff will work closely with the Finance Department in managing and reporting the federal funds.
To implement the City's five-year strategy in addressing the priority needs in the Consolidated Plan for Fiscal Years 2020/2021 - 2024/2025, the City will work with many programs. These programs include nonprofit agencies, for-profit developers, advocacy groups, clubs, organizations, neighborhood leadership groups, City departments and private sectors. Engaging the community and stakeholders in the delivery of services and programs will be vital in overcoming gaps for the benefit of low to moderate residents. The City will also utilize public notices, Community Workshops and Meetings (as appropriate), the City's website, and other forms of media to deliver information on how to carry out the Consolidated Plan strategies.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies
In an ongoing effort to bridge the gap of various programs and activities, the City has developed partnerships and collaborations with local service providers and City departments that have been instrumental in meeting the needs and demands of the homeless, which may include low- income individuals and families. Over the years, the City has created new partnerships or expanded them along the way. These partners include the Huntington Park Police, Parks and Recreation, and Public Works departments. Service programs that partner with the City also include Southeast Churches Service Center, Los Angeles Legal Center, The Salvation Army, YMCA, and the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA). During FY 2024-25, the City plans to continue developing more partnerships.
Discussion:
Over the current fiscal year FY 2024-25, the City will reassess current actions to address the obstacles and modify them accordingly.

7. Authorize City staff to electronically transmit the amended components of the FY 2019-2020 Annual Action Plan to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTIONS
The City annually prepares an AAP in connection with the Five-Year Consolidated Plan (ConPlan) which details how the City will spend its entitlement funds from HUD. The AAP is a multi-purpose document with two principal purposes:
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT EIGHT TO THE FY 2019-2020 AAP FOR CDBG-CV FUNDS
July 2, 2024
• The AAP identifies the projects and programs to be undertaken during the upcoming fiscal year, and the proposed objectives and outcomes to be achieved within the overall context of the Five-Year Consolidated Plan: and • The AAP acts as the City's application process for federal formula grants, principally comprised of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME investment Partnerships (HOME) programs.
According to 24 CFR 91.505 and the City's Citizen Participation Plan, it has been determined that reallocating CDBG-CV funds will require a substantial amendment to the FY2019-20 Annual Action Plan.
DISCUSSION
In accordance with HUD regulations, CDBG-CV funds must be expended in a timely manner. Funds that have not been expended within the prescribed time are subject to recapture by HUD. Staff has conducted a comprehensive review of the HOME accounts and proposes the following substantial actions:
CDBG-CV Activities that will be reallocated:

There is a total expended amount of $114.983.12. The amount of interest and the number of eligible applicants has steadily decreased. In order to meet grant expenditure requirements, the substantial amendment proposes to decrease the amount funded for the program from $500,000 to $150,000. This will allow the City to assist the residents currently in the queue and reallocate the remaining $350,000 to other programs.
CDBG-CV - Parks and Recreation After School Program was funded in the amount of $216,690, of which only $23,819.69 has been expended.

Corrective Action: Support the $31,186 After School program (activity 501) costs, including the reasonableness of the contract costs and meeting the limited clientele national objective, or repay the program from non-Federal funds.

Finding 1F
Description: The City Did Not Properly Support Its Cost Allocations. Specifically, the administrative costs were not reasonably supported for IDIS Activity ID #522 (Program Year - 2015) CDBG Admin in the amount of $95,736.
Corrective Action: Support the reasonableness of the $95,736 in cost allocations charged as CDBG administrative (activity 522) costs or repay the costs from non-Federal funds.
VGR Request Amount: $95,736
The total amount requested for this Voluntary Grant Reduction for the CDBG Program is $1,652,691.82 from future year allocations. The City acknowledges that a reduction in the grant allocation will inevitably lead to diminished resources for public services, administrative activities, and planning activities for the City's low-and moderate-income residents. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has designated the City of Huntington Park as a 100% severely fiscally distressed community, with a poverty rate of 21.64% and a per capita income of $16,386.
This underscores the city's disadvantaged status and its heavy reliance on external funding and resources to sustain essential social programs and infrastructure. Furthermore, reallocating funds from the current fiscal year 6550 Miles Avenue Huntington Park, CA 90255 www.huntingtonpark.org (323) 582-6161 Karina Macias, Mayor

allocations to rectify these compliance issues would significantly impact crucial services such as health, police, and community programs, precipitating an emergency fiscal situation. The City faces limited resources, rendering repayment with non-Federal funding sources unfeasible due to, and not limited to, the VGR amount exceeding 25% of the City's most recent formula allocation and the intensified economic downturn and slow recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The City seeks to address these compliance issues quickly and collaboratively to ensure the effective and equitable allocation of funds for the betterment of its residents and community at large. The City hereby waives its right to an administrative hearing as outlined in 24 CFR 570.913(c)(1) and accepts HUD's determination to assist in satistying the findings and HUD's authority to allow VGR as an alternative remedy to address noncompliance. The City acknowledges that should it not receive an allocation either due to grantee status or otherwise, it will repay HUD with non-Federal funds.
On May 28, 2024, the City published the Voluntary Grant Reduction Proposal in the Daily Commerce. The City made the request for the VGR available to the public for 30 days. After the completion of the public comment period, the City Council approved the request for the VGR on July 2, 2024.

The total amount requested for this voluntary grant reduction is $420,034.94. The City of Huntington Park is requesting the 2025 - 2026 program year be reduced by the VGR. The City acknowledges that a reduction in the grant allocation will inevitably lead to diminished resources for administrative and planning activities for the City's low-and moderate-income residents. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has designated the City of Huntington Park as a 100% severely fiscally distressed community with a poverty rate of
21.64%.
This underscores the city's disadvantaged status and its heavy reliance on external funding and resources to sustain essential social programs and infrastructure. Furthermore, reallocating funds from the current fiscal year allocations to rectify these compliance issues would significantly impact crucial services such as health, police, and community programs, precipitating an emergency fiscal situation. Compounded by the economic downturn and sluggish recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, the City faces limited resources, rendering repayment with non-Federal funding sources unfeasible.
The City seeks to address these compliance issues quickly and collaboratively with the VGR to ensure the effective and equitable allocation of funds for the betterment of its residents and community at large. The City hereby waives its right to an administrative hearing as outlined in 24 CFR 92.552(a) and accepts HUD's determination to assist in satisfying the findings. The City acknowledges that should it not receive an allocation either due to grantee status or otherwise, it will repay HUD with non-Federal funds.
