City Council Meeting
of April 28, 2026

CONCURRENCE AND SUPPORT OF THE STANISLAUS COUNTY CDBG
FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution No. 2026- , A Resolution Of Concurrence And Support Of The Stanislaus County CDBG Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan
BACKGROUND:

The City of Newman is part of a eight-member CDBG/ESG consortium that is led by Stanislaus County. The Federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) encompasses the following three specific goals:

1. Provide decent housing

2. Provide a suitable living environment

3. Expand economic opportunities
Each year the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides funding for housing and community development programs to the Stanislaus Urban County and the City of Turlock, specifically Community Development Block Grants (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG), and HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) grants. In order to receive these funds, the City and Stanislaus Urban County must complete an Annual Action Plan (AAP) every year (in addition to a Consolidated Plan every five years).

The Annual Action Plan has been developed to assist the Stanislaus Urban County in achieving the three aforementioned goals on an annual basis. The overriding consideration that is required of the CDBG program is to benefit those members of the population that meet the definition of Targeted Income. A Targeted Income person is one who earns 80% or less of the AMI for CDBG funds, and 30% or less than the AMI for ESG grant funds.

Additionally, if a project benefits a specific neighborhood or community, at least 51 % of the population within that geographic boundary must be within the Targeted Income Group (TIG). As identified by the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan, priority will be given to projects in the following areas: Infrastructure, Economic Development, Housing Assistance, Housing Programs, and Public Services.

ANALYSIS:

The FY 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan identifies the Stanislaus Urban County and the City of Turlock' s housing and community development needs, priorities, goals, and strategies and to stipulate how funds will be allocated to housing and community development activities over the period of the regional plan. The FY 2026-2027 AAP is considered a part of the Stanislaus Urban County's Consolidated Plan and describes the specific projects and activities that will be undertaken during Fiscal Year 2026-2027.

As stated above, CDBG area benefit activities must address the needs of low and moderate-income persons residing in an area where at least 51 % of the residents are oflow-income. This is recognized by United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) as a Low/Moderate Area (LMA). With HUD's release of2010 Census data in 2014, a number of areas that previously qualified as LMA are no longer eligible. There is reason to believe that HUD-provided data does not reflect the actual majority income levels of several Stanislaus Urban County neighborhoods based on the visible physical conditions of the project areas and local knowledge and information of the community's demographics. In these cases ( of which Newman is included) County and City staff will conduct door-to-door income surveys of the project areas to ensure that they meet the required LMA standards.

On an annual basis, via the Annual Action Plan, the Stanislaus Urban County will try to achieve as many of its housing and community development needs goals as feasible. The City of Newman's CDBG projects for FY 2026- 2027 are as follows:

Steffensen/Sunshine Park Area Improvement Proiect {multi-phase) Sidewalk, curb, gutter repair/replacement and street repair and overlay ( due to infrastructure repairs; includes the replacement of antiquated Fire Hydrants (where applicable) at the 1900 Block of Sydney Avenue, 1900 Block of Leslie Avenue, Pine Street and Pine Court.

Please note that the above-listed project is a continuation project due to HUD delays and allocation amounts.

Agenda Item: 8.e.

Each member of the Consortia must concur and support the plan in order for the lead agency (Stanislaus County) to prepare and finalize said plan and submit it to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

FISCAL IMPACT:

During Fiscal Year 2026-2027, the Stanislaus Urban County expects to receive approximately $2,302,998 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program funding and $202,398 in Emergency Grant Solutions (ESG) funding. The City will receive $129,001.66 in program funding for Fiscal Year 2026-2027.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that the Council adopt Resolution No. 2026- , A Resolution Of Concurrence And Support Of The Stanislaus County CDBG Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan.

ATTACHMENTS:

1. Resolution No. 2026- , A Resolution Of Concurrence And Support Of The Stanislaus County CDBG Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan.

ES-OS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Introduction
Each year the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides funding for housing and community development programs to the Stanislaus Urban County and the City of Turlock, specifically Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), and HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) grant. The Stanislaus Urban County consists of the cities of Ceres, Hughson, Newman, Oakdale, Patterson, Riverbank, Waterford and the unincorporated areas of Stanislaus County. The Stanislaus Urban County and the City of Turlock form the Stanislaus HOME Consortium for purposes of receiving federal Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) Program funds. Together, the Stanislaus Urban County and the City of Turlock prepared a joint Five-Year Consolidated Plan (Consolidated Plan) for Fiscal Years 2025-2029 which serves as the blueprint for the expenditures of federal funds.

Beginning in 2000, with the City of Turlock serving as the lead entity, the Stanislaus Urban County was part of the City of Turlock/Stanislaus Urban County HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) Consortium for purposes of receiving federal HOME grant funding. On July 1, 2023, Stanislaus County became the lead entity for a new HOME Consortium, the Stanislaus HOME Consortium, consisting of the Stanislaus Urban County and the City of Turlock. CDBG, ESG, and HOME activities will be reported in this Annual Action Plan (AAP) for the Stanislaus HOME Consortium, and the City of Turlock will report their CDBG activities in their own separate AAP.

For Fiscal Year 2026-2027 the final HUD funding allocations are as follows:

Stanislaus Urban County:

CDBG:

ESG
$2,302,998.00
$202,398.00
Stanislaus HOME Consortium:

HOME: $1,191,577.79
Throughout this document the following geographic terms will be used. • Stanislaus Planning Area: Includes the entirety of the planning area considered under the Fiscal Year 2025-2029 • Consolidated Plan: the cities of Ceres, Hughson, Newman, Oakdale, Patterson, Riverbank, Turlock, Waterford, and the unincorporated area of the County.
• Stanislaus Urban County: A multi-jurisdictional CDBG entitlement, made up of the cities of Ceres, Hughson, Newman, Oakdale, Patterson, Riverbank, Waterford, and the unincorporated area of the County. Stanislaus County is the "lead entity" for the Stanislaus Urban County. • Unincorporated County: includes the entire unincorporated area of the County (this area is not a part of any municipality).
• Entitlement Cities: The CDBG entitlement cities in the County are Modesto and Turlock. • Stanislaus HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) Consortium: The members of the Consortium are Stanislaus Urban County and the City of Turlock. Stanislaus County is the "lead entity" for the Stanislaus HOME Consortium.

This Annual Action Plan (AAP) outlines the projects and activities that will be undertaken to address housing and Stanislaus Urban County and Stanislaus HOME Consortium 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan 3 community development needs using CDBG, ESG, and HOME funds during Fiscal Year 2026-2027. This AAP represents Year 2 of the currently approved Consolidated Plan.

The document is prepared in accordance with HUD requirements and is largely generated through HUD's Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS). It serves as both a planning and reporting tool to guide the use of federal resources and track progress toward meeting local housing and community development goals.

Summary of the Objectives and Outcomes Identified in the Plan Needs Assessment Overview The Stanislaus Urban County and the City of Turlock have identified five goals to address housing and community development needs during the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan:

1. Improve public infrastructure and facilities;

2. Provide and ensure access to essential public services;

3. Support affordable housing and promote accessible housing options;

4. Work to address, prevent and mitigate homelessness; and

5. Administration.

CDBG funds are used by the Stanislaus Urban County to support a variety of community development activities, including public services, public facilities and infrastructure improvements, housing-related programs, and planning and administrative costs. These activities primarily benefit low- and moderate-income households and address identified community needs.

ESG funds are used to support programs that assist individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness.

Eligible activities include homelessness prevention, rapid re-housing, emergency shelter operations, Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) participation, and administrative costs.

HOME funds are used by the Stanislaus HOME Consortium to increase and preserve the supply of affordable housing.

These funds support activities such as the development of new affordable housing units, rehabilitation of existing housing, and assistance to low-income households through homeownership and housing rehabilitation programs.

Evaluation of Past Performance
Stanislaus Urban County:

In many older neighborhoods and communities, public infrastructure is minimal or non-existent, causing this to be a high priority need. Infrastructure such as sewer, water, curb, gutter, sidewalk, and storm drainage are typical development standards in newer neighborhoods but were not always requirements at the time older neighborhoods developed. As a result, Stanislaus Urban County member jurisdictions have continued to utilize Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to support infrastructure improvement projects that benefit low- and moderate-income neighborhoods.

Through the CDBG Public Services Program, the Stanislaus Urban County may set aside up to 15% of its annual CDBG allocation for programs that provide services to low- to moderate-income households (families or individuals). In Fiscal Year 2025-2026, a total of eight public service programs were awarded $345,430 to carry-out a variety of services addressing community needs. As of March 31, 2026, approximately 889 individuals have received a form of service through the funded agencies. Services provided through these programs have included meals and shelter assistance for low-income households, emergency food distribution, and other supportive services.

Stanislaus HOME Consortium:

Stanislaus Urban County and Stanislaus HOME Consortium 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan 4 As the lead agency for the Stanislaus HOME Consortium, Stanislaus County continues to work with consortium member cities to identify and support affordable housing projects that address local housing needs. During Fiscal Year 2025-2026, the County worked with a housing consultant to update HOME program policies and procedures and to prepare and release a Request for Proposals (RFP) to identify eligible housing development and rehabilitation projects throughout the consortium area.

Following the evaluation of proposals received through the RFP process, the County brought forward funding iecommendations to the Board of Supervisors in December 2025. The Board approved the award of HOME and Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds to three affordable housing projects proposed by the Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority (SRHA). These projects will support the development and preservation of affordable housing units within the consortium area and represent a continued commitment to increasing the supply of safe, decent, and affordable housing for low- and moderate-income households.

In addition to these development efforts, the County is currently preparing a Housing Services Request for Proposals (RFP) to support the implementation of its Housing Rehabilitation Program. The goal of this effort is to select a qualified service provider to administer housing rehabilitation activities, with program implementation anticipated in early Fiscal Year 2026-2027.

ESG program funding is used to support emergency shelter operations and provide assistance to households experiencing homelessness or at risk of becoming homeless. In Fiscal Year 2025-2026, a total of three programs were awarded $187,389 to provide shelter and homelessness prevention services. As of March 31, 2026, approximately 189 individuals have received services through ESG-funded programs.

Throughout Fiscal Year 2025-2026, the Stanislaus HOME Consortium and the local Continuum of Care (CoC) continued to strengthen collaboration to address homelessness within the region. These efforts included coordinating resources and providing funding to eligible shelters for operations and supportive services through federal and state funding sources, including the Homeless Housing Assistance and Prevention (HHAP), ESG, and PLHA programs.

Community Outreach
The Stanislaus HOME Consortium conducted community outreach and consultation activities in accordance with its adopted Citizen Participation Plan during the preparation of the AAP. Community engagement efforts included a combination of virtual community meetings, stakeholder interviews, in-person community meetings, and consultations conducted through phone and email with local service providers and partner agencies. The County also coordinated with the local CoC to gather input regarding community needs and priorities related to homelessness and housing stability.

Draft AAP documents were made available for public review through multiple methods to encourage community participation. The draft plan was posted on the County's website and made available at the offices of the Planning and Community Development departments of the Stanislaus HOME Consortium member jurisdictions. In addition, draft documents were distributed electronically to known interested parties, community organizations, and stakeholders by Consortium staff.
• Summary of Public Comments
Any public comments received during the public review period or provided at the subsequent final public hearing to consider approval of the AAP will be incorporated into the final AAP submitted to HUD. • Summary of Comments or Views Not Accepted and the Reasons for Not Accepting Them Any public comments received during the public review period or provided at the subsequent final public hearing not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them will be incorporated into the final AAP submitted to HUD.

Stanislaus Urban County and Stanislaus HOME Consortium 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan 57 AP-50 GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION
Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-income and minority concentration) where assistance will be directed:

The Stanislaus Urban County includes the cities of Ceres, Hughson, Newman, Oakdale, Patterson, Riverbank, Waterford, and the unincorporated areas of Stanislaus County. The Stanislaus HOME Consortium includes these jurisdictions along with the City of Turlock. Together, these jurisdictions form the Stanislaus Planning Area. Assistance funded through the CDBG, HOME, and ESG programs will be directed throughout the Stanislaus Planning Area.

CDBG funding is required to primarily benefit low- and moderate-income households. For most CDBG activities, at least 51 percent of residents in a defined service area must meet low- and moderate-income eligibility requirements. These requirements ensure that funding is directed toward communities with the greatest need.

Approximately 15 percent of the Stanislaus Urban County's CDBG allocation is reserved for Public Services. These funds are awarded through a competitive application process to nonprofit organizations providing essential services to low- and moderate-income residents throughout the Stanislaus Urban County.

The remaining CDBG funds are distributed among Stanislaus Urban County member jurisdictions using a formula based on population and poverty data. These funds are typically used for infrastructure improvements and community development projects, including sewer improvements, storm drainage, sidewalk infill, and other neighborhood improvements that benefit low- and moderate-income residents.

Rationale for the priorities for allocation investments geographically.
