Recommendations: That the City Council:

1. Conduct a Public Hearing for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), and Emergency Solutions Grants Program (ESG) programs included in the Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Annual Action Plan.

2. Approve and adopt the FY 2024/2025 Annual Action Plan as an application to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for funding under the federal CDBG, HOME, and ESG programs with Council amendments, if any.

3. Authorize the City Manager to approve any reprogramming of allocations between funded programs within the adopted FY 2024/2025 Annual Action Plan in compliance with the City’s Citizen Participation Plan, if necessary.

SUMMARY
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires that the grantee cities, such as Moreno Valley, prepare an Annual Action Plan every year as a condition of receiving federal funding under the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Programs.

The Annual Action Plan identifies how the CDBG, HOME, and ESG program funds will be utilized to provide programs and projects that benefit low- and moderate-income households and neighborhoods in the City. It also serves as the City’s official grant application to HUD. Normally, the Action Plan must be submitted no later than 45 days J.5

The CDBG objective is to be achieved in two ways: First, a grantee can only use funds to assist eligible activities that meet one of three national objectives of the program:
• Benefit low- and moderate-income persons,
• Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums and blight, or • Meet community development needs having a particular urgency.

Second, at least 70 percent of funds must be spent (over a period of up to 3 years) for activities that address the national objective of benefiting low- and moderate-income persons.

A summary of the applications received, funding requests, and activities recommended for funding is included. (Attachment 2).

ALTERNATIVES
The Council has the following alternatives:

1. Conduct a public hearing, provide staff with modifications, if any, and adopt the FY 2024/2025Annual Action Plan, and authorize the City Manager to approve any reprogramming of allocations between funded programs within the adopted FY 2024/2025 Annual Action Plan in compliance with the City’s Citizen Participation Plan. Staff recommends this alternative as it will allow the FY 2024/2025 Annual Action Plan to be submitted per HUD’s instructions and by the federal deadline.

2. Do Not conduct a public hearing providing the public with an opportunity to comment on the proposed Annual Action Plan, and NOT approve the FY 2024/2025 Annual Action Plan. Staff does not recommend this alternative as it would result in the City not meeting HUD’s established deadline for submission of the Annual Action Plan.

FISCAL IMPACT
Expenses for these programs are reimbursed by the Federal grants. The ESG program requires a 100% match that will be met by the City’s ESG subrecipients. Based on the recommended actions, there is no impact to the General Fund.

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

1. Introduction
Every year the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) allocates federal grant monies to Entitlement Cities (eligible, selected cities with a population exceeding 50,000). The city of Moreno Valley is considered an entitlement city and receives federal funding on an annual basis from HUD for three federal grant programs: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG).

The City of Moreno Valley utilizes these federal grant monies to support programs that provide decent housing, build infrastructure, create economic development opportunities, and provide a variety of social services for low to moderate-income residents. The City’s Five-Year Consolidated Plan is a comprehensive planning document that provides the framework for the use of CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds to provide community development, housing, and homeless activities. The current Consolidated Plan cycle runs from July 2023 through June 2028. The FY 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan is the second year in the ConPlan cycle.

The FY 2024-25 Annual Action Plan (AAP) serves as the update to the Consolidated Plan and identifies the distribution of federal funds for specific activities and programs during the program year. In FY 2024-25, it is estimated that the City will receive $1,957,039 in CDBG funds, $628,174 in HOME funds, and $173,935 in ESG funds. These funds will support housing, community development and homeless prevention activities. The Annual Action Plan also provides a basis for assessing performance. At the end of the program year, a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) provides information on the annual programmatic accomplishments.

2. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan The main objective of the Annual Action Plan is to outline the City’s efforts in meeting the goals that were outlined in its Consolidated Plan. The goals as outlined in the city’s 2023-2028 Consolidated Plan are as follows:
• Capital Improvement Activities
• Economic Development Activities
• Health, Safety, and Public Awareness Activities
• Historic Preservation Activities
• Homeless/Homelessness Prevention Activities
• Public Service Activities
• Slum or Blight Activities
• Planning and Administration

3. Evaluation of past performance
The City chose the goals and projects identified in this plan by revisiting its objectives during a series of public meetings and public hearings as part of its citizen participation plan. Evaluation of the most recently completed fiscal year (FY) projects was also factored into the selection of projects. For example, at the end of FY 2022-2023 the City, through its subrecipients was able to:
• Provide fair housing services for 3,739 people.
• Assist 67 persons with homelessness preventions services. • Rehabilitate 25 households.
• Provide public services that improved the well-being of 61,870 people. • Improve public facilities that benefited over 43,000 residents.

4. Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process The City of Moreno Valley Citizen Participation Plan contains the City’s policies and procedures for public involvement in the Consolidated Plan process and the use of Federal grant funds. As part of the City’s Citizen Participation Plan, the City hosted two (2) public meetings and three (3) public hearings. All citizen participation was accomplished through meetings, published public notices, and online announcements. The City invited residents, non-profit organizations, and surrounding jurisdictions to solicit input on community needs.

The first public meeting took place on November 28, 2023, to review the goals and objectives to be included in the Annual Action Plan. The first public hearing took place on December 5, 2023, to provide residents the opportunity to provide comments regarding priority needs in the community. The proposed Action Plan was available for a 30-day public examination and comment period from March 22, 2024, through May 7, 2024. A second public meeting was held on March 26, 2024, to review the subrecipient applications the City received for funding recommendations. A second public hearing was held on May 7, 2024; at this meeting the City Council reviewed the proposed activity selections, and the public was encouraged to provide comments. A final public hearing took place on May 21, 2024, after the close of the public review period. The final public hearing allowed the public an opportunity to comment on the proposed Action Plan before implementation by the City Council. The information compiled from the meetings was used in determining the needs in the community and the development of strategies. Citizen comments are included as an attachment to this document.

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

1. Introduction
The City's Citizen Participation process allows for residents, local service providers, government entities, and others to provide input during the funding allocation process. A list of organizations, entities, and other participants is included in Table 2 below.

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)).

One resource that the City utilizes to assist in coordination is the City’s participation in the Riverside County’s Continuum of Care (CoC). City staff meets consistently with the CoC. The City’s involvement in the CoC allows for open dialogue with key agencies including the Riverside County Department of Public Social Services, the Riverside County Housing Authority, the Department of Mental Health, the County Adult Homeless Unit, local law enforcement and numerous local service providers. The CoC convenes these organizations with the goal of addressing homelessness, but in the process, also discusses other community needs, such as public housing and emergency services needed in the region. Riverside County’s CoC is active, and the Board consists of higher-level representatives with the authority to implement change at each respective organization.

The City will continue to be supportive of direct applications for funds from housing providers as well as local Community Housing and Development Organizations (CHDOs). Cooperation with surrounding jurisdictions has been essential in promoting the City’s ability to address a wide variety of community needs including housing rehabilitation, housing programs, public services, and public safety. To facilitate organization and solidarity, the City will continue to work with these entities by attending regular meetings, events, and joint endeavors. The City hopes to work with resources available through affordable housing financial institutions. These private businesses will be included in the annual plans as applicable.

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 CoC’s primary goal is to address homelessness in the region. The group is charged with developing and implementing Riverside County’s five-year plan to end homelessness and address housing in the County. The COC is provided with federal funding to offer homeless services and shelter. Moreno Valley staff regularly attend the CoC meetings. In addition, the city staff assists in organizing and coordinating the Homeless Point in Time (PIT) Counts.

Participating in these counts provides staff with a firsthand knowledge of homeless needs through direct interaction with potential recipients of homeless services. Data from the homeless count is applied to determine homeless service needs and levels in the City.

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.

The CoC serves as the planning body for the County's submission of the Riverside County Consolidated Application for HUD funds such as ESG. City staff have historically participated in rating CoC grantee applications for ESG funding and have been active in helping make determinations for the allocation of funds. The City consults with the CoC by sharing ESG funding recommendations from staff and requesting feedback from the full CoC membership.

For the ESG activities proposed within the Action Plan, City representatives consulted with the CoC by forwarding a summary of all applications along with Council recommendations and requesting CoC members provide feedback via e-mail. The City took their feedback into consideration. The administration/operation of HMIS is handled through the County of Riverside.

City of Moreno Valley representatives are in constant communication with County HMIS staff and discuss program set-up, schedule for training, and to discuss ESG reporting requirements.

Table 3 – Other local / regional / federal planning efforts Narrative (Optional)
Pursuant to the ConPlan regulations, during the process of developing the Consolidated Plan the City’s consultation process included gathering information on broadband internet service providers, organizations engaged in narrowing the digital divide, agencies whose primary responsibilities include the management of flood prone areas, public land or water resources, and emergency management agencies.

Broadband Internet Service Providers/Organization Engaged in Narrowing the Digital Divide:

The FCC definition of broadband includes download speeds faster than 25 Mbps. The City has three types of internet service providers: cable, DSL, and fiber. The internet service providers include AT&T, Frontier, Spectrum, Mediacom, HughesNet and Time Warner. According to Stanford University, the "digital divide" refers to the growing gap between the underprivileged members of society, especially the poor, rural, elderly, and handicapped portion of the population who do not have access to computers or the internet; and the wealthy, middle class, and young Americans living in urban and suburban areas who have access. RIVCOconnect is a Riverside County initiative, supported by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and Executive Office, and led by Riverside J.5.a

County Information Technology (RCIT), that seeks to remove the roadblocks that obstruct service providers from building out current infrastructure. RIVCOconnect invites the private sector to deliver broadband services Countywide at speeds of 1 Gbps and above.

The Moreno Valley Public Library provides computer labs and online resources to all its patrons.

Management of Flood Prone Areas
The flood prone areas within the City have been mapped by the County of Riverside and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District is responsible for the planning and construction of regional flood control facilities. The City retains the responsibility for designing, construction, and maintenance of local drainage facilities. Four types of flooding conditions could occur in Moreno Valley: flooding in defined watercourses; ponding; sheet flow; and dam inundation flooding. Flood levels within defined watercourses vary along many of the drainage ways and floodplains.

Emergency Management Agencies
The Moreno Valley Fire Department will be the incident commander, or be working in a unified command, with other responding agencies, depending on the nature of the emergency. The Fire Department maintains a clear understanding of the statutory responsibility and authority it has depending upon the emergency; along with a working knowledge of the Incident Command System, California Disaster and Civil Defense Master Mutual Aid Agreement, and Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS).

Land or Water Resources
According to the General Plan Conservation Element, water resources include two hydrological groundwater basins in the planning area: The Perris Basin and the San Jacinto Basin. The primary purveyor of water in Moreno Valley since the 1950’s has been the Eastern Municipal Water District. The State Water Project brought additional imported water to Moreno Valley and EMWD’s service area.

Table 5 – Expected Resources – Priority Table
Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state, and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied.

The City and HUD share an interest in leveraging HUD resources to the maximum extent feasible to address priority needs and associated goals. Volunteer services and private donations provide additional resources to leverage CDBG funds for public service activities.

In the past, Moreno Valley has actively leveraged its affordable housing activities, mostly with Redevelopment Set‐aside funds. As the Redevelopment Agency was dissolved, the City continues its efforts to leverage activities with other available resources. Some potential leveraging resources are listed below:
• Low‐income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC): The California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC) allocates federal and state tax credits to affordable housing projects. Corporations provide equity to build the projects in return for the tax credits. • Affordable Housing Sustainable Communities Housing Program: AHSC directs investments to historically under invested communities, giving more Californians access to opportunity. At least 50% of AHSC funding is required by state law to be allocated to affordable housing and projects in, or that provide a benefit to, disadvantaged communities. • Housing Choice Vouchers: The Section 8 rental voucher program provides rental assistance to help very low‐income families afford decent, safe, and sanitary rental housing. The County of Riverside Housing Authority pays the owner a portion of the J.5.a
Packet Pg. 1200 Attachment: Annual Action Plan - FY 2024-2025 - DRAFT [Revision 3] (6639 : PUBLIC HEARING TO Annual Action Plan 19
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
rent (a housing assistance payment (HAP)) on behalf of the family. There are 957 City households currently receiving Section 8 housing vouchers.
• Mortgage Credit Certificate Program: Income tax credits are available to first time homebuyers to buy new or existing single‐ family housing. Riverside County administers programs on behalf of jurisdictions in the County. A Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) entitles qualified home buyers to reduce the amount of their federal income tax liability by an amount equal to a portion of the interest paid during the year on a home mortgage.

Matching Requirements: Entitlement cities receiving HOME funds are required to contribute a 25% match of non‐HOME funds for every dollar of HOME funds spent. The HOME statute also provides for a reduction of the matching contribution under three conditions: 1. Fiscal distress, 2. Severe fiscal distress, and 3. Presidential disaster declarations. Moreno Valley has been identified by HUD as a fiscally distressed jurisdiction for several consecutive years and has been granted a 100 percent match reduction. The City anticipates that the ‘fiscally distressed’ classification to continue through the Annual Action Plan period.

The Emergency Solutions Grant program has a 100% match requirement that can be met as a dollar for dollar or with in kind services. During the FY 2024‐2025 application process, the City has requested that ESG applicants be prepared to provide the match that would equal amounts of cash or in‐kind services.

Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-income and minority concentration) where assistance will be directed.

The CDBG Target Areas consist of census tracts within the City that are qualified as having a population of 51% or more low to moderate income residents.

In February 2019, Notice CPD 19‐02 was released to publicize the new Low and Moderate‐ Income Summary Data (LMISD), based on the 2015 America Community Survey (ACS).

Commencing July 1, 2021, the City formally adjusted and adopted its Target Area Maps to reflect the most recent data released.

Target Area 7%
City Wide 93%
Table 8 - Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically When determining the geographic locations where Moreno Valley will allocate their investments, the city staff consider if the activity or program will physically be located within an already designated CDBG Target Area, and in line with whether the program will directly benefit the low‐ to‐ moderate income population in that area. Poverty levels act as a measure of need for an area, providing staff with insight into the state of the population within that area and helps guide City representatives to fund services accordingly. City representative also take public demand into account, recommendations from other city departments (such as Capital Activities, or the Police Department), reports from CDBG subrecipients which track referrals and measure trends in service levels, recommendations of other local entities like the County partners (the Continuum of Care, Department of Social Services, local Housing Authority, Economic Development Agency) and local non‐profits.

Discussion
Moreno Valley utilizes geographic distribution designations that further describe where the City will focus its programs. An activity can be designated as serving either: (1) 'Citywide", or (2) 'in the CDBG Target Areas'. "Citywide' is a designation used for programs that offer services to the entire community. Many public programs provide services to the entire City, the nature of these program services is often to exclusively serve low‐to‐moderate income persons. If a program is designated as 'CDBG Target Area' it is confined exclusively to the CDBG Target Area. In general, CDBG Target Areas typically include older sections of the City where much of the building stock and infrastructure is deteriorated or fails to meet current standards. Many structures need minor or major rehabilitation with some structures in need of extensive reconstruction. The areas lack adequate drainage systems, water lines, street lighting, and street improvements.

AP-60 Public Housing – 91.220(h)
Introduction
The Housing Authority of Riverside County (HACR) addresses the public housing needs of the cities within Riverside County. The Public Housing Program is intended to provide decent, safe, and sanitary housing to low and moderate‐income families, seniors, and persons with disabilities.

Actions planned during the next year to address the need for public housing.

Moreno Valley residents who received Housing Choice Vouchers (or Section 8) are below 50% of the area median income and approximately 75% of the recipients were below 30% of the area median income. The countywide Section 8 waiting list in the past has been as high as approximately 68,000 families. Based on the large numbers of families waiting for Section 8 assistance, the City supports the HACR goal to: expand the supply of assisted housing by applying for additional rental vouchers via annual competitions for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) affordable housing funding available to Public Housing Authorities; improve the quality of assisted housing; leverage private or other public funds to create additional housing opportunities; and expand and promote self‐sufficiency programs. The City actively pursues opportunities for local affordable housing activities as well as non‐housing public service programs that contribute to the overall affordable housing needs of the community and eases the financial burden of its struggling, low‐income residents. To further collaborate, the City of Moreno Valley will continue to review the Riverside County Agency's Action Plan and monitor the affordable housing needs of the area. The City reviews proposed development sites, the comprehensive plan, and any proposed demolition or disposition of public housing developments.

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

The Riverside County Housing Authority encourages public housing residents to become more involved in management and to participate in homeownership opportunities through its Public Housing Resident Initiatives (PHRI). The Riverside County Housing Authority seeks to facilitate the successful transition of residents from public housing residency to economic independence and/or from welfare‐dependence to increased earning capacity or sustained work. This Initiative builds upon the efforts of the local welfare plan and other self‐sufficiency efforts of the Housing Authority and targets public housing residents who are receiving welfare assistance. The goals of the PHRI are to reduce welfare dependence by assisting residents in returning to the work force in a job commensurate with their abilities; reduce poverty by assisting residents in increasing their self‐sufficiency by enhancing their employment or earning potential; and to increase homeownership among public housing residents. Local partners including public agencies and community‐based nonprofits, as well as faith‐based organizations provide self‐ sufficiency services including job training, employment opportunities, computer instruction, etc.

The Family Self Sufficiency (FSS) Program was established to assist Section 8 residents and enable families to gain economic independence from all governmental assistance. Supportive J.5.a

services offered to participating families include:
• Remedial Education and Classroom Training
• Employment Training and Placement
• Counseling/Case Management
• Credit Counseling and Money Management
• Childcare
• Transportation
The Housing Authority has also established a “Homeownership Program” (HP). The HP assists eligible participants in the Section 8 program, who are also participants of the Family‐Self Sufficiency Program (FSS) by offering a single down payment assistance grant. To maximize the use of resources available to home seekers, the Housing Authority program also targets families who take part in the Riverside County Economic Development Agency’s (EDA) First Time Home Buyer Program (FTHB). In combination, the HP/FTHB partnership enables families to realize their dream of becoming homeowners by providing them with financial assistance and other resources that they would not normally have access to.

If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the way financial assistance will be provided or other assistance.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i) Introduction
The of the City’s highest priorities for the use of grant funds is to address the emergency shelter and housing needs of homeless persons. In the coming year, Moreno Valley will continue to dedicate funding toward homeless services. The City will assist homeless people with emergency vouchers and other critical support funded through partnership with homeless service providers. It will also continue to subsidize affordable housing development that offers long‐term affordable housing opportunities. With its Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) entitlement funding, Moreno Valley can offer programs that will help quickly house homeless individuals and prevent loss of housing for those at risk of becoming homeless.

Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including:
• Reaching out to homeless people (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs.

In line with the HUD requirements, the City has developed a comprehensive Homeless Strategy that involves reaching out to homeless people, assessing, and addressing their individual emergency/ housing needs. To reach these individuals, the City extends CDBG funding to a variety of public service subrecipients who in turn provide the direct services including street outreach, case management, housing search assistance, emergency housing/motel vouchers, food, and counseling. These social service programs are often the primary source for referrals and assistance to homeless persons. Most of the homeless population become aware of available programs through word of mouth and seek out services by calling the service provider or traveling to their local office. The City also provides funds for reporting homelessness assistance through the Riverside County’s Homeless Management Information System (HMIS).

Riverside County has worked with the chronic homeless population for several years through the Mental Health Homeless Intervention Team (HIT) program. The HIT Team actively seeks out homeless people, throughout Riverside County, who are living on the streets and/or in unsheltered locations. The teams focus on areas of high homeless concentration. Support workers are trained to recognize symptoms of mental illness and substance abuse. Support workers also possess the interpersonal skills necessary to solicit and provide information in a friendly, respectful, non‐threatening manner. They are familiar with various community resources that serve the homeless population, both public and private. At a minimum, all homeless persons contacted on the streets are provided with information and referrals to programs relevant to their needs. Once the chronic homeless persons have been identified, and if mentally ill and willing to participate, they are enrolled into a series of programs by the Department of Mental Health.
• Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless people.

Addressing the housing needs of the homeless is the primary objective of the ESG program and one of the City's highest priorities for the use of CDBG public service dollars. ESG funding will be allocated to address the emergency shelter and housing needs of homeless people located J.5.a

in Moreno Valley. The City’s ESG program allocation will be used to leverage the homeless prevention efforts originally initiated by CDBG. However, ESG will provide additional funding that will be used to assist, protect, and improve living conditions for the homeless and provide for the following eligible activities:
• Outreach to homeless individuals and families living on the street. • Improve the number and quality of emergency shelters for homeless individuals and families.
• Help operate these shelters.
• Provide essential services to shelter residents.
• Rapidly re‐house homeless individuals and families.
• Prevent families/individuals from becoming homeless.
• 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 of Moreno Valley will continue to engage with systems that assists efforts for persons and families to transition to permanent housing and independent living through a variety of resources involving the continued partnerships and financial support to local nonprofit service providers and participation and support to the Riverside County Continuum of Care.

Additionally, the Riverside County’s Department of Public Social Services (DPSS) is considered the “umbrella” anti‐poverty agency for the region. The goal of self‐sufficiency for persons can be accomplished by moving poor families out of poverty. DPSS interacts with needy residents on many levels, and assists them through childcare, education, employment, training, health and human services, homelessness, and housing with available mainstream programs. • Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs.

The Riverside County CoC has a standing six‐year cooperative agreement between various key organizations and agencies that establish county‐wide protocols and procedures intended to prevent people from being discharged from public and private institutions (programs) into homelessness. The agreement includes County Mental Health, Veterans, Sheriff’s, and Children’s Services Independent Living Program, as well as the Southern California Hospital Association, and administrators of the 2‐1‐1 telephone referral program, Community Connect of J.5.a

Riverside County. With the services made available via ESG funding, Community Connect and other partners can formally register its programs to ensure that the public is referred to appropriate ESG services, among others. City public service providers assist those threatened with homelessness by providing referrals and coordinating with other agencies to locate assistance for the family or individuals. Additionally, Moreno Valley dedicates ESG entitlement funding toward homeless prevention and rapid‐re‐housing efforts.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j)
Introduction
As a condition of receiving federal funding for the CDBG and HOME programs, cities must certify that it will affirmatively further fair housing as required by the Fair Housing Act. The Act includes policies that ensure that persons are not denied equal opportunities in connection with housing because of their race, color, national origin, religion, disability, sex, or familial status. In compliance, prior to the start of each Consolidated Plan period, Moreno Valley prepares an Analysis of Impediments (AI) to Fair Housing Choice Report. As part of the report, the City of Moreno Valley is required to:

1. Conduct an analysis to identify impediments to fair housing choice within the jurisdiction.

2. Take appropriate actions to overcome the effects of any impediments identified through that analysis; and Maintain records reflecting the analysis and actions in this regard. The AI is a review of impediments or barriers that affect the rights of fair housing choice and serves as a basis for fair housing planning. It provides detailed information to policy makers, administrative staff, housing providers, lenders, and fair housing advocates to assist in building public support for fair housing efforts.

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.

Key components that the city will engage in to ameliorate and/or remove barriers to affordable housing as follows:
• When feasible, consider reducing, waiving, or deferring development fees to facilitate the provision of affordable housing.
• Periodically review and revise City development standards to facilitate quality housing that is affordable to lower and moderate-income households. • Monitor all regulations, ordinances, departmental processing procedures and fees related to the rehabilitation and/or construction of dwelling units to assess their impact on housing costs.
• Ensure that water and sewer providers are aware of the City’s intentions for residential development throughout the City.

AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction
The following is a summary of critical components of 'other' necessary actions to be taken, including how the City plans to overcome obstacles to meeting underserved needs, create plans to foster and maintain affordable housing, plans to reduce lead‐based paint hazards, to reduce the number of poverty‐level families, develop institutional structure, and actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies.

Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs.

The primary obstacle in meeting the needs of underserved communities (low‐income families, seniors, homeless, etc.) is the lack of funding available to local public and private agencies. The economic downturn resulted in a decline in federal funding and the elimination of Redevelopment agencies and the associated tax increment/housing set‐aside funding. It has also resulted in a decline in funding donations to local non‐profits. This loss in revenue has not been fully overcome; however, staff can take the following actions in efforts to address the needs of the City’s underserved communities, effectively:

1. Continue to establish partnerships with other agencies to better prioritize and utilize resources, conduct more detailed research and citizen participation each year to prioritize the needs of the underserved, seek out additional resources, and apply for grants where there are opportunities.

2. Formally adjust the programs Objectives and Policies to reflect the updated prioritization and allocate; accordingly, even if it means shifting away from what's been historically funded. Create new programs/temporary emergency programs to address urgent issues.

3. Work hand in hand with subrecipients to adjust budgets, services, and restructure programs to better fit the needs of the underserved.

Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing.

Homeownership opportunities for low‐income households will be made available through the City’s Single Family Residential Acquisition, Rehabilitated, and Resale (SFR‐ARR) component of the Neighborhood Stabilization Program. The City of Moreno Valley's affordable housing portfolio includes 29 different multi‐family rental activities. Through the Housing Authority of the County of Riverside (HACR), the City is also able to offer its residents affordable housing through the County's Public Housing programs. HACR administers and manages approximately 86 Section 8 properties in Moreno Valley.

Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards.

City Housing Programs
Moreno Valley offers a Mobile Home Repair Program and a Single‐Family Home Repair program. Habitat for Humanity Riverside operates both programs and administers this HOME J.5.a

funded program. All homeowners participating in this grant program receive a copy of the “Protect Your Family from Lead in Your Home,” a lead‐based paint disclosure booklet, and are asked to sign an acknowledgment that is included in the loan application. If the unit was constructed after 1978, an exemption form is prepared and placed in the project file. If the home was constructed prior to 1978, a subcontractor provides a lead‐based paint inspection and risk assessment of the property. If the property is found to contain lead‐based paint, mitigation measures are incorporated as a part of the revitalization work.

Countywide Lead Hazard Control Program
While the City of Moreno Valley does not currently have a stand‐alone lead prevention program, the City will continue to work closely with the County of Riverside to address these issues. The County has adopted a regional strategy to control lead hazards. The County’s strategy thoroughly spells out the control methods used once lead-based paint hazards have been identified. It also describes its typical public outreach efforts which include: the distribution of bilingual educational brochures, public presentations, informational booths at the mall and community events, immunization clinics, testing within Target Areas, use of public media for outreach, as well as a “Free Testing Program.”
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families.

The City strives to reduce the poverty rates of the city’s population and neighborhoods.

Specific actions to reduce poverty are described below:

Provide Job Skills Training to Persons Living in the R/ECAP: The City can fund activities that provide jobs skills training to unemployed people living in the R/ECAP. A key poverty reducing strategy is to provide appropriate technical education and training to low wage workers and unemployed workers in the labor force.

Increase Participation in Poverty Reducing Programs by Persons Living in the R/ECAP: The City will work to inform families living in the R/ECAP of poverty reducing programs such as the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). Research has demonstrated that increasing participation in safety net programs helps to reduce poverty rates.

Provide Job search and Placement Services to Low Wage and Unemployed Workers Living in the R/ECAP and High Poverty Neighborhoods: Annually, the city’s Business Employment Resource Center (BERC) can provide job seekers with access to resources that are necessary to search and acquire employment within the city and surrounding areas. Assistance will be provided with preparing resumes; job applications and job search as well as one‐on‐one mock interviews.

Policies to reduce the number of poverty-level families include:
• Anti‐Poverty Policy #1: To continue to support and coordinate with public and private J.5.a
Packet Pg. 1229 Attachment: Annual Action Plan - FY 2024-2025 - DRAFT [Revision 3] (6639 : PUBLIC HEARING TO APPROVE THE ANNUAL ACTION PLAN FOR Annual Action Plan 48

efforts aimed at preventing and reducing poverty level incomes. • Anti‐Poverty Policy #2: To conduct outreach with public and private agencies whose mission is to reduce poverty level incomes.
• Anti‐Poverty Policy #3: Allocate CDBG and ESG funds to projects and activities that will help persons and families who have incomes below the poverty level.

Actions planned to develop institutional structure.

The City of Moreno Valley benefits from a solid institutional structure and relationships with various local public and private agencies. The City will continue to work at strengthening its dialogue with Riverside County agencies such as the Departments of Mental Health and Public Social Services, specifically to address regional homeless issues, and staff will continue to serve on the Continuum of Care Consortium which provides opportunities to work with local public and non‐profit agencies. The City will maintain open dialogue with the Riverside County Housing Authority and focus on the use of resident initiatives in public housing. The City helped form a Non‐Profit Coalition in efforts to increase collaboration amongst service providers and better meet the needs of the community and shall continue to support their efforts. The City will remain a member of the March Joint Powers Authority, created for the repurposing of the March Air Reserve Base. Additionally, the City will continue to coordinate with all the local Chambers of Commerce, as well as administer the Business Roundtables, and Nonprofit Roundtables which encourage communication with professionals from a variety of industries including health care, transportation, education, and other local businesses.

Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies.

The City's goal is to continue to establish collaborative relationships between governmental and social service agencies to assure the effective delivery of services to low‐income individuals by maintaining open communication with sub‐recipients and other consolidated planning partners; Utilizing technology to share, distribute information, foster and maintain constant contact with community planning partners; and Recommending and participating in committees aimed at filling gaps where they exist.

Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG)
Reference 91.220(l)(4)

1. Include written standards for providing ESG assistance.

Per grant requirements, the ESG standards include:

1. Standard policies and procedures for evaluating individuals and family’s eligibility for assistance under ESG.

2. Policies and procedures for determining and prioritizing which eligible families and individuals will receive homelessness prevention assistance and which eligible families and individuals will receive rapid re‐housing assistance.

3. Policies and procedures for coordination among emergency shelter providers, essential service providers, homelessness prevention and rapid re‐housing assistance providers and mainstream service and housing providers.

4. Standards for determining the share of rent and utilities cost that each program participant must pay, if any, while receiving homeless prevention and rapid re‐housing assistance.

5. Standards for determining how long a program participant will be provided with rental assistance and whether the amount of that assistance will adjust over time.

6. Standards for determining the type, amount, and duration of housing stabilization and/or relocation services to provide a program participant, including the limits, if any, on the homelessness prevention or rapid re‐housing assistance that each program participant may receive, such as the maximum amount of assistance, maximum number of months the program participant receives assistance, or the maximum number of times the program participant may receive assistance.

2. If the Continuum of Care has established a centralized or coordinated assessment system that meets HUD requirements, describe that centralized or coordinated assessment system.

The McKinney‐Veto Homeless Assistance Act requires that communities operate a Continuum of Care (CoC) program designed to assist homeless persons with housing and/or services with the goal of long‐term stability. Riverside County’s Department of Public Social Services (DPSS) has been the lead agency in coordinating the CoC including securing membership and ensuring that CoC’s various legal responsibilities are met. Current members include the County, various entitlement cities, non‐ profit/service providers, homeless persons, and members of the public. As a collaborative, the group must assess the needs of the areas homeless and affordable housing needs then develop a regional plan to address them. They also promote a community‐wide commitment to ending homelessness, provide for funding for local efforts to address homelessness, and promote effective use of mainstream programs, including designing and operating a software system called the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) intended to minimize duplication of services. Moreno Valley consults with the CoC by sharing ESG funding recommendations issued at the City level and requesting feedback from the full CoC membership.

3. Identify the process for making sub-awards and describe how the ESG allocation is available to private nonprofit organizations (including community and faith-based organizations).

The ESG sub‐awards follows the standard annual application process along with the City’s CDBG and HOME programs. The City’s competitive process includes required public notifications and issuance of a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA). In efforts to reach as many applicants as possible the City advertised in local publication of general circulation, online, and through e‐mail blasts to interested parties. Moreno Valley also offered an on‐line application workshop aimed at providing program information and application assistance. As part of the application process, in preparation of the Action Plan, the City contracted a third party to collaborate with City Staff as the Technical Review Committee for review of the ESG applications. Each application was reviewed two times, once for completeness and HUD eligibility and once for completion of the City’s formal J.5.a

The applications received by the Technical Review Committee were presented to the City Council during Public Hearing No. 2. In line with the City’s policies and objectives, the final project selections shall be made by the City Council via final Public Hearings.

4. If the jurisdiction is unable to meet the homeless participation requirement in 24 CFR 576.405(a), the jurisdiction must specify its plan for reaching out to and consulting with homeless or formerly homeless individuals in considering policies and funding decisions regarding facilities and services funded under ESG.

The homeless requirements under 24 CFR 576.405(a) and 91.220 (1)(4) (iv) indicates that the City’s policy making entity must have at least one homeless or formerly homeless individual on its panel.

The City contends that it has met the homeless participation requirement via the consultation process with the CoC. The CoC has a member who is formally homeless and an active participant.

5. Describe performance standards for evaluating ESG.

The City shall work with ESGs subrecipient to form the appropriate performance standards customized for the specific ESG activity being carried out. These agreed upon standards will need to be consistent with ESG regulations, City’s Consolidated Plan, and the adopted ESG written standards. The ESG performance standards shall be included in the subrecipient’s grant agreement.

The City shall also continue to consult with the CoC members to discuss the ESG program including performance standards.

Program Description:

As the need for additional resources in our community of Moreno Valley continues to grow, our plan is to expand the impact of our community outreach programs to help meet this need. Since the scourge of the COVID-19 shutdown, we've seen a skyrocketing need for food, cleaning supplies, and hygiene products.

Further, families that are unable to eat dinner are less focused on schoolwork. The Unity Community Outreach Program consists of our Food Program and Hygiene Product Giveaway where we redistribute meals and hygiene kits for hundreds of our citizens in need. Additionally, we've distributed school supplies and toys to our local youth in need. With this $25,000 grant, Unity intends to identify, assess, refer, and connect people in crisis with the resources needed, no matter their walk of life. Through both tangible resources and social work, we hope to reduce new entries into homelessness by consistently offering services.
