Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council:
ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING FINAL PARCEL MAP NO. 84360 FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 6091 STATE STREET, UNITS 1-9 (AMADA
TOWNHOMES)
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL:
1. Adopt a resolution approving Final Parcel Map No. 84360 for the creation of one (1) lot for condominium purposes on property located at 6091 State Street, Units 1- 9 (Amada Townhomes).
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
At a Special Planning Commission Meeting held on June 30, 2021, the City of Huntington Park Planning Commission approved a request by Mee Heh Risdon / Dora Leong Gallo with Huntington Park, LP / Huntington Square, LP / Supportive Housing, LLC / A Community of Friends (ACOF) for PC Resolution No. 2021-05 (Planning Commission Case No. 2021-05 GPA / ZOA / TPM / DP / DB [Attachment 1]) recommending to the City Council the adoption of an ordinance amending the official General Plan and Zoning Map of the City of Huntington Park to add an Affordable Housing Overlay; a Tentative Parcel Map for the subdivision of an existing 33,341 square-foot parcel into two (2) lots, the first measuring 21,339 square feet (Lot 1) and the second measuring 11,805 square-feet (Lot 2); a Development Permit; and a Density Bonus for the construction of forty-eight (48) units on Lot 1 and nine (9) affordable units on Lot 2 for the property located at 6101 State Street within the Commercial General (C-G) zone. Subsequently, the City Council approved the adoption of the ordinance during a Special Meeting held on July 14, 2021.
Building permits for the construction of the forty-eight (48) apartment units (Huntington Square) on Lot 1 were issued on March 23, 2023, with final project sign-off by Building & Safety occurring on March 24, 2025. At the Applicant’s request, a Certificate of Completed Construction / Certificate of Occupancy was issued on March 24, 2025 to close out the project.
RESOLUTION APPROVING FINAL PARCEL MAP NO. 84360 FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 6091 STATE STREET, UNITS 1-9 (AMADA TOWNHOMES) April 28, 2026
Building permits for the development of the nine (9) affordable condominium units on Lot 2 were issued on July 1, 2025. The address for the project was later established as 6091 State Street, Units 1-9 (Amada Townhomes) on September 24, 2024. The construction is in progress.
As part of the Planning Commission’s approval of the project, the Applicants for Lot 1 (Mee Heh Risdon and Dora Leong Gallo) and Lot 2 (Vanessa Delgado) were required to sign and abide by the Conditions of Approval as stipulated in PC Resolution No. 2021- 05, and file a Tentative Parcel Map for condominium purposes for the creation of one (1) lot with nine attached (9) condominium dwelling units, whereby the owners of the units of air space will hold an undivided one-ninth (1/9) interest in the common areas managed by a homeowner’s association that will, in turn, provide the necessary access and utility easements for the units associated with the development. The Tentative Parcel Map was approved by the Planning Commission via PC Resolution No. 2023-01 TPM (PC Case No. 2023-01 TPM) on December 13, 2023 (Attachment 2). As such, Vanessa Delgado / Azure Development Co., the Applicant, is now requesting City Council approval for Final Parcel Map No. 84360 to create one (1) lot with nine (9) condominium dwelling units of air space with common areas managed by a homeowner’s association.
FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
The Applicant has previously paid all applicable application and notification fees.
Approval of the proposed resolution will not have a fiscal impact on the General Fund or any other fund.
FACTS AND PROVISIONS/LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
Pursuant to the California Subdivision Map Act and Huntington Park Municipal Code (HPMC) Sections 10-3.104 and 10-5.107, all final maps shall be approved by the City Council.
The nine (9) attached residential condominium dwelling units required the creation of one (1) lot to allow for the development of the residences with common areas managed by a homeowner’s association. The creation of the parcel will comprise of nine (9) separate interests in a condominium unit, together with an undivided one-ninth (1/9) interest as tenants-in-common in the common areas managed by a homeowner’s association, and all easements appurtenant thereto. Approval of the Final Parcel Map is necessary to finalize permits for the construction already in progress. By approving the Final Map, all Conditions of Approval will be in compliance as set forth in the previously approved PC Resolution No. 2021-05 for Planning Commission Case No. 2021-05 GPA / ZOA / TPM / DP / DB). As proposed, the Final Parcel Map complies with the City’s zoning regulations and is consistent with the General Plan. In addition, the City’s Building & Safety Division and Engineering Division have reviewed and cleared the Final Map for consistency with the California Subdivision Map Act. If approved by the City Council, the next step will be to record the Final Parcel Map with the County of Los Angeles.

City Council Agenda Report
April 28, 2026
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Huntington Park
6550 Miles Avenue
Huntington Park, CA 90255
Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council:
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE
CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT WITH AZTECS TELECOM INC. FOR THE
BROADBAND INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL:
1. Approve Amendment No. 1 to the Construction Contract with Aztecs Telecom Inc. for the City of Huntington Park Broadband Infrastructure Project, increasing the contract not-to-exceed amount to $17,826,470; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 and all related documents.
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
The city is working to bring reliable, high-speed broadband to residents, businesses, and City operations. The Broadband Infrastructure Project is a key part of that effort.
On December 9, 2025, the City Council approved a construction contract with Aztecs Telecom Inc. for $15,611,325 for the Broadband Infrastructure Project. The contract covers the installation of fiber-optic conduits, cables, vaults, and related equipment along designated routes within the City.
The project is currently in the design phase. Construction has not started. During design, the project scope grew to address additional infrastructure needs, including expanded conduit routes to serve more City facilities and updates needed to meet current permitting requirements.
CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE
CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT WITH AZTECS TELECOM INC. FOR THE
BROADBAND INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT
April 28, 2026
The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) also approved additional scope for the project. This added work requires additional funding to cover the increased design, material, labor, and permitting costs.
Staff have reviewed the revised scope with the project engineer and Aztecs Telecom Inc. and determined that additional work is necessary for the project to function as intended.
FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
Amendment No. 1 increases the Aztecs Telecom Inc. contract from $15,611,325 to a not-to-exceed amount of $17,826,470—an increase of $2,215,145. The revised contract amount is fully funded through the City’s CPUC Federal Funding Account (FFA) grant, and all construction-related costs are fully reimbursable. No additional appropriation is requested, and all expenditures will continue to be tracked in fund 281.
CONCLUSION
This amendment to the agreement will cover the expanded scope identified during design, including work approved by the CPUC. Staff are recommending the approval of the amendment so the project can move forward to construction. Upon Council approval, staff will proceed accordingly.
Respectfully submitted,

1. Introduction
As detailed in the following section, the City developed its 2026-27 Annual Action Plan through consultation with City departments; housing and public service providers; and adjacent local governments. Additionally, as required by HUD, nonprofits and community residents were provided with an opportunity to review and comment on the draft 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan.
Residents were encouraged to participate in a public hearing held on April 28, 2026. The draft Annual Action Plan was available for public review and comment for a minimum of 30 days, March 26, 2026 to April 28, 2026.
Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction’s activities to enhance coordination between public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health and service agencies (91.215(l))
The City of Huntington Park developed its 2025-2030 Con Plan through consultation with organizations, agencies, groups, organizations who participated. By engaging in these partners, Huntington Park aims to strengthen its efforts to improve the quality of life for its residents, ensure equitable access to housing opportunities, and advance community strategies aimed at ending chronic homelessness. Through ongoing dialogue and collaboration, the City was able to make informed decisions to allocate HUD funds to appropriately address priority needs.
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 of Huntington Park is an active participant in the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) Continuum of Care (CoC) within the Los Angeles County Service Planning Area (SPA 7). The City supports the efforts by LAHSA and local non-profits to implement strategies that help prevent homelessness. Huntington Park participates in local homeless outreach efforts, data collection, and planning initiatives to ensure that the needs of its residents are being met at a County level.
Annually, LAHSA conducts a point-in-time (PIT) count to estimate the number of homeless individuals in the Los Angeles Area on a single night. The 2021 PIT was not conducted due to COVID-19 and data collection resumed in 2022. The annual point-in-time count is mandated by HUD and was last held on January 21, 2026. Huntington Park PIT data is consolidated with other cities that are part of SPA 7. Furthermore, LAHSA uses Homeless Management Information Annual Action Plan 7
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
System (HMIS) to enable organizations throughout Los Angeles County to collect information on services that they provide for those experiencing homelessness and to provide case management.
The City works with Inner City Visions (ICV), who provide limited services and homeless outreach to vulnerable populations such as persons fleeing domestic violence and at risk of homelessness in Huntington Park. ICV provides various community intervention services including food banks, informal case management, mental health services, and homeless outreach. For at risk youth, provides safe passages, school-based intervention, immediate crisis care, and empowerment to children and families who are most vulnerable to human trafficking and exploitation.
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 outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS This section is not applicable because the City does not receive ESG funds.
2. Describe Agencies, groups, organizations and others who participated in the process and describe the jurisdiction’s consultations with housing, social service agencies and other entities
During the development of the City’s 2025-2030 Con Plan, the City utilized a variety of public outreach methods to gather input and feedback from residents and stakeholders on key areas such as housing, economic development, fair housing, public facilities, and social services. Their inputs were carefully considered when determining the needs assessment and market analysis and played a role in shaping the five-year goals and objectives of the plan. The outreach efforts during the development of the City’s Con Plan included the Community Needs Survey, three stakeholders focus group meetings, four public input meetings, and two public hearings that followed HUD guidelines for community participation.

Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied Huntington Park relies heavily on federal entitlement funds through HOME and CDBG to meet the heavy demand for affordable housing and services within the community. The City leverages other private and public resources among the formula grant programs as much as possible. For example, HOME funds are matched by a variety of sources including tax credits, public investment, and private investment.
While the HOME program requires a match of every dollar drawn, Huntington Park remains exempt from this mandate. The City is identified by HUD as a financially distressed jurisdiction.
Since its inception, the City of Huntington Park has received a 100% match reduction, and expects to receive such a reduction until otherwise indicated.
The City secured HOME-American Rescue Plan (HOME-ARP) funding for the acquisition and rehabilitation of non-congregate units to serve people experiencing homelessness or who are at risk of homelessness. In addition to its HOME and HOME- ARP funds, Huntington Park is also working to secure additional resources with other local, state, federal, and private resources, such as Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds to provide affordable housing for lowand moderate-income households through the acquisition and rehabilitation of local properties.
If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan As of the execution of this document there is currently no publicly owned land or property located within the City that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan, however Huntington Park is working with PLHA and HOME-ARP funding to acquire property to provide affordable housing to eligible residents.

Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-income and minority concentration) where assistance will be directed The City of Huntington Park utilizes CDBG and HOME funds for projects and programs operated Citywide, ensuring access for all residents. However, most CDBG-funded facility projects are targeted in census tracts and block groups where at least 51% of the residents are identified as being low-to moderate income, satisfying program requirements and ensuring strategic allocation of funds. Low- to moderate-income households and individuals, on average, are more likely to experience housing discrimination and face more barriers to securing safe and decent affordable housing. Huntington Park prioritizes providing services to special needs and LMI populations through its goals and projects based on need identified in the 2025-2029 Con Plan.
Geographic Distribution
Target Area Percentage of Funds
City of Huntington Park 100%
Table 8 - Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically There are no specific geographic target areas in the City and all public service programs funded with CDBG will be available Citywide to eligible persons. The City will also allocate CDBG funds for public facilities and public infrastructure projects located in eligible low- and moderateincome areas. Finally, HOME funds are allocated to housing projects located Citywide.
Discussion
The City will provide CDBG funding to both income eligible residents and income eligible block groups. Through the HOME program, the City will provide financial assistance to income eligible residents and our participants. As previously mentioned, the City does not intend to target services and housing assistance to particular block groups or census tracts within the jurisdiction but rather offer services and public improvements to all residents, ensuring free access and maximizing effectiveness.

Affordable Housing
AP-55 Affordable Housing – 91.220(g)
Introduction
This section focuses on affordable housing and the City’s goals for attainment. Residents are having a challenging time finding affordable housing. Especially those with lower or moderate incomes. Rent has risen 20%, from 2009 to 2020, and this number is projected to be higher in recent years. Housing is limited, specifically for larger families of low income. A lot of people are spending more than they can manage, and about 48% of residents are spending 35% of their gross income on housing.
To aid with affordable housing, the City is using a mix of funding. Local programs, federal support, and money from the state are being used toward affordable housing and preserving the aging housing. The City is looking for opportunities to utilize its Permanent Local Housing Allocation Program (PLHA) and HOME American Rescue Plan Program (HOME-ARP) to expand affordable housing in the City. The City is working with local groups such as nonprofits, community leaders, and housing developers to further strategize affordable housing. The goal is to help residents in need. The City is making strides in making housing affordable, fair, and more available.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i) Introduction
The City works with local social service providers to help people experiencing homelessness, including those with special needs. While the City does not run its own shelters or programs, partnerships connect people to the services they need. In 2022, SPA 7 reported 4,781 homeless people, that number increased to 6,511 in 2024, a 36% jump.
For the City specifically, a total of 136 homeless people were counted in 2024, which is an increase from the 79 homeless people counted in 2023, the 2023 PIT data show 79 homeless people who were all unsheltered. Data available for SPA 7, which includes the City, reveals 6,551 homeless people. Out of the total, there were 2,882 who are chronically homeless, which accounts for 44% of the total population. Only 325 of them are sheltered, and 2,557 remain unsheltered. Individual households not in family units make up most of the homeless population at 5,482 (94%) of 5,806 total households. Most of the households are unsheltered at 4,588 (84%) and only 894 (16.3%) are sheltered. Out of those who are unsheltered, 4,086 are adults 25+, and 502 are between the ages of 18-24. Of those sheltered, 766 are adults 25+, 126 are between 18- 24, and 2 are under 18. The 2 unaccompanied minors under the age of 18 were both sheltered.
There are a total of 324 family households with at least 1 child under the age of 18. Out of these family households, 217 of them are headed by an adult and 107 are headed by a transitional age youth. Other subpopulations of the homeless population in SPA 7 are veterans and unaccompanied youth. Veterans consist of 5% of the total population, 295 and 294 are individual households, and 1 is a family household. The City's homeless population fluctuates throughout the year. Homeless populations are currently declining in the City. City efforts focus on partnerships and expanding housing opportunities.
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
The City of Huntington Park does not directly manage a homeless prevention program but collaborates with local organizations like the Salvation Army Southeast Community. The Salvation Army Southeast Community has provided a referral service and transportation to the Salvation Army Shelter located in the City of Bell. The Bell Shelter evaluates the individual needs of each homeless person including case management, supportive and transitional housing, individual or Annual Action Plan 34
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
group counseling, drug and alcohol programs, job search and many other much needed services.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City addresses the needs of the homeless and other persons who need shelter by taking part in programs operated by public agencies. Even though there are no emergency shelters located in Huntington Park, a regional shelter is located just adjacent to the City of Bell. The Bell Shelter offers programs that include case management, substance abuse rehabilitation, counseling, onsite 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). The County of Los Angeles Department of Mental Health provides services through various agencies throughout the County.
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 refers individuals in need to one of the nearby shelters or programs administered by homeless service agencies. For example, The Salvation Army will continue to provide transportation assistance to those individuals who wish to proceed to the Bell regional shelter or any other shelters in neighboring communities. Resources may also include supportive housing, transitional housing, and unique programs geared towards a specific need. Connecting residents with the tools to succeed can help prevent homelessness.
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.
A 55-room motel was converted into 24 apartments known as the Mosaic Gardens at Huntington Park. Apartments serve as a home for limited – income families and transition age youth ages 18- 24 receiving services from the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health (LACDMH).
Concord Huntington Park features 162 affordable units for seniors, acquired in late 2022 by Redwood Housing for major renovations and sustainability indicatives. These apartments are Annual Action Plan 35
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
supported by a project-based Section 8 Husing Assistance Payment (HAP) contract that covers 95% of the apartments.
These strides in affordable housing for various populations highlight a proactive approach for housing needs, specifically through supportive housing for vulnerable populations. These efforts reflect a commitment to a more inclusive and resilient community and highlight the prioritization of the unique needs within the City.
Discussion
Efforts 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 with a larger emphasis on special needs populations and large families.
The City aims to offer a wide range of fair housing services to ensure equal housing opportunities for its residents. Individuals or families who are homeless and those at risk of homelessness will have the opportunity to get supportive services, treatments, public resources, and support groups through the Salvation Army. Those in lower- and moderate-income households who overpay for housing are more likely to be at risk of becoming homeless upon loss of employment.
Huntington Park will continue to collaborate with the Los Angeles County Housing Authority to provide Section 8 rental assistance to homeless individuals and families, and those at risk of becoming homeless.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j)
Introduction:
Based on the community needs assessment conducted with residents and stakeholders, affordable housing development was identified as a high priority focus in the City. In the past, the City has provided HOME funding support for affordable housing initiatives, but demand continues to outpace supply. Many of the City’s low-income residents struggle with housing affordability as the cost of living continues to rise while wages remain stagnant.
The City continues to face barriers in meeting its affordable housing needs due to the rising cost of construction and limited land suitable for development. Many potential parcels in residential zones are small and owned by various owners. This limits the ability to acquire suitable-sized land for large-scale projects. High construction costs also make it economically unfeasible to build affordable housing. Developers rely on loans and grants to fund construction. But with the excessive cost of construction, the revenue a building is expected to produce with be cut which makes development seem unattractive.
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 ease the development of affordable housing, the City is working to update zoning regulations to allow for higher-density infill development, lot consolidation, and encourage the redevelopment of older and underutilized structures. Affordable housing developers will also see reduced development fees to lower the cost of construction.
Discussion:
Huntington Park faces challenges in producing and preserving affordable housing due to limited land and high construction costs. This trend is reflective in the broader trends in Los Angeles County and statewide with high population densities and limited land availability. The City’s longterm efforts to address these barriers is through amending its zoning ordinance to allow for flexibility in affordable housing development. Huntington Park recognizes that addressing affordable housing challenges requires not only increasing the supply of affordable housing but also addressing issues of poverty.

AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction:
The City is planning to invest its CDBG and HOME resources to address the most urgent needs of its underserved residents and reduce the City’s rate of poverty. The AAP proposes activities that meet the priority needs described in the Con Plan. To meet its goals for community development, CDBG funds will be allocated towards public service, public improvement, and economic development activities that will benefit low-to-moderate-income households.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The City has the following actions to address the needs of underserved residents:
• Continued support of essential programs such as the Afterschool and Senior Program to assist with at risk youth and senior special needs population • Fund public facilities and infrastructure improvement projects. • Continued support of programs that promote access to fair housing. • Address housing deficiencies and for the development of affordable housing units for extremely low- and low-income households.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City has the following actions to foster and maintain affordable housing:
• The City’s HOME funds will be set aside to support future acquisition of properties to provide affordable housing.
• Address the substandard housing stock in the City with the HOME funded Home Repair Program and Cal Home funded Owner-Occupied Housing Rehabilitation Program. These programs will help ensure that low-income homeowners have access to safe homes that meet all health and safety standards.
• Increase homeownership rate by leveraging Cal Home funds for a First-Time Homebuyer Program to down payment loan assistance.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
The prevention of childhood lead poisoning and the protection of residents are emphasized in the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 (Title X). The City ensures that lead prevention is integrated as part of the City’s Home Repair Program.
During the application process, every applicant is provided with English or Spanish Pamphlets highlighting the dangers of lead and asbestos poisoning. For homes built before 1978, lead and Annual Action Plan 38
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
asbestos testing is conducted through Barr and Clark. These reports are provided to homeowners and become a part of the scope of work for homeowners. Contractors for the home must address all deteriorated lead paint and asbestos in the home and provide a certificate of clearance.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families The City of Huntington Park’s strategy to reduce the number of poverty-level families revolves around creating new and affordable housing, promoting homeless services for at-risk populations, and providing public and social services.
Based on the identified needs from the Con Plan, the City will allocate available CDBG resources to support the public service program to benefit low-to-moderate-income residents. The CDBG entitlement funds have a maximum cap of 15% to provide public service programs that promote the well-being of residents.
The City will also expand its partnerships with local service providers, housing developers, and the private sector to provide affordable housing, case management services, and community programs.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
The Community Development Department is highly collaborative between code enforcement, planning, building and safety, and grants divisions. Strong City departments serve as anchors in the administration of HUD grant programs. While the grants division is mainly responsible for administering HUD funds and ensuring compliance with federal regulations, open communication between the divisions is necessary to ensure the success of activities. For example, the grants division collaborates with the code enforcement and planning division to administer its Home Repair Program to ensure that all health and safety standards are met. For affordable housing development, success relies heavily on checking in with planning and building and safety to ensure that the permitting and construction process is streamlined.
Additionally, the Community Development Department collaborates with non-profit agencies, advocacy groups, developers, and neighborhood organizations. The City encourages agencies to participate in its annual Request for Proposal to apply for funding for programs that primarily benefit low- and moderate-income residents. Housing programs and services are regularly promoted through public notices, workshops, meetings, and digital platforms by the department.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies
The City’s Community Development Department maintains collaboration between local service Annual Action Plan 39
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
providers, City departments, and regional agencies to address community and housing needs.
Over the years, the City has collaborated with the Huntington Park Police, Parks and Recreation Department, and Public Works Department to coordinate the delivery of housing, social services, and public facilities improvement. Non-profit service providers like Inner City Visions, the Salvation Army, and the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority are the City’s partners in addressing homeless needs. The City does not own public housing and HCV for Huntington Park residents are administered by LACDA. The City recognizes that coordination between all partners is instrumental in addressing the most urgent community needs.
Discussion:
The City of Huntington Park’s priority goal is to help its most vulnerable and underserved residents. By fostering partnerships with City Departments, non-profit agencies, and housing developers, the City aims to improve the quality of life, reduce homelessness, provide quality social services, and address housing affordability. While lack of funding is the common trend amongst service providers, the City will look for other states, federal, and private funding to close this funding gap. The City will use its HUD allocation to provide social services, improve public infrastructure, create economic opportunities, and find ways to expand affordable housing.

Prior to the expiration of the 30-day cure period, CITY may submit a written request for additional time to cure the Event of Default upon a showing that CITY has commenced its efforts to cure the Event of Default and that the Event of Default cannot be reasonably cured within the 30-day cure period. The foregoing notwithstanding, an Event of Default dealing with CITY’s failure to timely pay any undisputed sums to CONSULTANT as provided under Section 1.4, above, shall be cured by CITY within five (5) calendar days from the date of CONSULTANT’s Default Notice to CITY.
D. CITY, in its sole and absolute discretion, may also immediately suspend CONSULTANT’s performance under this Agreement pending
CONSULTANT’s cure of any Event of Default by giving CONSULTANT written notice of CITY’s intent to suspend CONSULTANT’s performance (hereinafter, a “Suspension Notice”), which notice shall specify the basis for the suspension and the actions required to cure the Event of Default.
CITY may issue a Suspension Notice upon the occurrence of a material Event of Default that remains uncured following applicable notice and cure periods, except where immediate suspension is reasonably necessary to protect public safety or City property.
Upon such suspension, CONSULTANT shall be compensated for services and tasks satisfactorily performed up to the effective date of suspension, including approved demobilization costs and reasonable costs incurred as a direct result of the suspension, subject to the terms of this Agreement.
No actual or asserted breach of this Agreement on the part of CITY shall operate to prohibit or otherwise restrict CITY’s ability to suspend this Agreement as provided herein.
E. No waiver of any Event of Default or breach under this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent Event of Default or breach.
No waiver, benefit, privilege, or service voluntarily given or performed by a Party shall give the other Party any contractual rights by custom, estoppel, or otherwise.
F. The duties and obligations imposed under this Agreement and the rights and remedies available hereunder shall be in addition to and not a limitation of any duties, obligations, rights and remedies otherwise imposed or available by law. In addition to any other remedies available to CITY at law or under this Agreement in the event of any breach of this Agreement, CITY, in its sole and absolute discretion, may also pursue any one or more of the following remedies:
i. Upon written notice to CONSULTANT, CITY may immediately terminate this Agreement in whole or in part;
ii. Upon written notice to CONSULTANT, CITY may extend the time of performance;
iii. CITY may proceed by appropriate court action to enforce the terms of the Agreement to recover damages for CONSULTANT’s breach of the Agreement or to terminate the Agreement; or
iv. CITY may exercise any other available and lawful right or remedy.
CONSULTANT shall be liable for all legal fees plus other costs and expenses that CITY incurs upon a breach of this Agreement or in the CITY’s exercise of its remedies under this Agreement.
G. In the event CITY is in breach of this Agreement, CONSULTANT’s sole remedy shall be the suspension or termination of this Agreement and/or the recovery of any unpaid sums lawfully owed to CONSULTANT under this Agreement for completed services and tasks.
5.3 SCOPE OF WAIVER: No waiver of any default or breach under this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other default or breach, whether of the same or other covenant, warranty, agreement, term, condition, duty or requirement contained in this Agreement. No waiver, benefit, privilege, or service voluntarily given or performed by a Party shall give the other Party any contractual rights by custom, estoppel, or otherwise.
5.4 SURVIVING ARTICLES, SECTIONS AND PROVISIONS: The termination of this Agreement pursuant to any provision of this Article or by normal expiration of its term or any extension thereto shall not operate to terminate any Article, Section or provision contained herein which provides that it shall survive the termination or normal expiration of this Agreement.
