Following the City Council’s declaration that the listed items are surplus property, staff will dispose of the property through the use of either an outside public auction firm or through our contract with Enterprise. As is our normal practice, we will notify Paramount residents through local media of the date and time that the auction will occur. All auction related information can be found at US Auction’s website: USAuctions.net.

The following list of items are recommended to be declared surplus property:
- Unit #80 (1990 GMC Truck)

- Copiers and printers
- Dinner plates and glassware

Date: March 26, 2024
SUBJECT: AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE AGREEMENT WITH CT&T CONCRETE PAVING, INC. FOR HARDSCAPE MAINTENANCE
BACKGROUND
On November 8, 2022, the City Council awarded and approved an agreement with CT&T Concrete Paving, Inc. for ongoing sidewalk, curb and gutter, and other various roads related repairs. These repairs are completed through an on-call hardscape maintenance contract.
DISCUSSION
At the time of approval of the agreement, the contract covered all on-call roads related repairs through the remainder of FY 2022-23, for an amount not to exceed $250,000. The contract also had an option to extend it administratively in future years and was renewed in FY 2023-24 for an amount not to exceed $250,000. In order to allow for additional needed services utilizing existing contract rates, $75,000 was added to the ongoing cost in the FY 2023-24 Budget for a total amended amount of $325,000. However, the original contract did not reflect the additional dollar amount nor the additional needed services.
An amendment to the contract is necessary.
Approval of this Amendment will allow us to add additional services as needed, to ensure proper safety and maintenance of the various roads related repairs throughout the City.
Staff also recommends adding Article XI to the original contract to allow future changes utilizing existing contract rates to be authorized by the Public Works Director or her designee.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is currently no additional fiscal impact, as the additional $75,000 was included in the FY 2023-24 Public Works Roads Division Operation Budget utilizing General Funds.

CITY OF PARAMOUNT POLICY FOR THE REDUCTION AND RECYCLING OF CONSTRUCTION
AND DEMOLITION WASTE
I. General Background
The State of California has responded to the pressing need to divert materials from landfills in order to preserve decreasing landfill capacity and diminishing natural resources. As a result, the California Intergrated Waste Management Act (CIWMA) (Assembly Bill 939) was passed in 1989. The bill mandates that by January 1, 1995, each California city and county must divert 25 percent of all solid waste from landfill or transformation facilities through source reduction, recycling, and composting activities. By January 1, 2000, the required waste diversion is 50 percent. The City of Paramount is committed to achieve and maintain the State mandated 50 percent diversion goal beyond the year 2000.
To ensure that solid waste generated in the City of Paramount is reduced, reused, or recycled, projects greater than or equal to $100,000 in value or greater than or equal to 1,000 square feet in size involving construction, remodeling or demolition, must submit a “Construction and Demolition Waste Reduction and Recycling Report Form” to obtain final building permit approval.
II. Covered and Non-Covered Projects
a. Covered Projects - All construction, demolition, and renovation projects within the City that is greater than 1,000 square feet or where the total costs of which are, or are projected to be, greater than or equal to $100,000 (“Covered Projects”) shall comply with this Article. b. Non-covered Projects – Applicants for construction, demolition, and renovation projects within the City whose total costs are less than $100,000 or less than 1,000 square feet in size. “Noncovered Projects” shall be encouraged to divert at least 50 percent of all project-related construction and demolition debris.
c. Compliance as a Condition of Approval – Compliance with the provisions of this Article shall be listed as a condition of approval on any building or demolition permit issued for a Covered Project.
III. Infeasibility Exemption
a. Application – If an Applicant for a Covered Project experiences unique circumstances that the Applicant believes make it infeasible to comply with the Diversion Requirement, the Applicant may apply for an exemption at the time that he or she obtains a building permit. b. The Public Works Department shall review the information supplied by the Applicant and may meet with the Applicant to discuss possible ways of meeting the Diversion Requirement. Based on the information supplied by the Applicant, the Public Works SPC22-21
Department shall determine whether it is possible for the Applicant to meet the Diversion Requirement.
c. If the Public Works Department determines that it is infeasible for the Applicant to meet the Diversion Requirement due to unique circumstances, he or she shall determine the maximum feasible diversion rate for each material and shall indicate this rate on the Construction and Demolition Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan submitted by the Applicant. The Public Works Department shall return a copy of the Construction and Demolition Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan to the Applicant marked “Approved or Infeasible Exemption” and shall notify the permit issuing entity that the Construction and Demolition Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan has been approved. d. Denial of Exemption – If the Public Works Department determines that it is possible for the Applicant to meet the Diversion Requirement, he or she shall so inform the Applicant in writing. The Applicant shall have 30 days to resubmit a Construction and Demolition Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan. If the Applicant fails to resubmit the Construction and Demolition Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan, or if the resubmitted Construction and Demolition Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan does not comply with the requirements of the plan, the Public Works Department shall deny the Construction and Demolition Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan.
IV. Diversion Measurement
The methodology used to calculate diversion is based on the Title 14, California Code of Regulations, Article 6.1, Solid Waste Generation Study, Section 18722 et seq., and is consistent with CIWMA measurement protocols. The following equation defines the “Generation-Based Diversion Quantification Methodology”:
Generation = Disposal + Diversion
Diversion Rate (%) = Diversion Tons
Generation Tons

SUBJECT: AMERICAN RED CROSS SHELTER OPERATIONS FACILITY USE
AGREEMENT
BACKGROUND
The American Red Cross has a long history of assisting communities, families, and individuals with emergency shelter services when disasters strike. The City of Paramount received assistance from the American Red Cross following the microburst damage that occurred on April 18, 2000. The American Red Cross operated a shelter at the Paramount Park Community Center for displaced victims of the microburst and provided cots, meals, and staff to operate the shelter for 24 hours a day while those affected found replacement shelters. On October 2, 2018, the City of Paramount entered into an agreement with the Red Cross for storage of an emergency shelter trailer at Paramount Park. As our partner, the American Red Cross will continue to assist the City of Paramount and surrounding cities should a similar type of incident occur.
DISCUSSION
To assist in their efforts, the American Red Cross of the Los Angeles Region contacted us to renew the agreement which covers the use of City of Paramount facilities if and when the need arises to use City facilities as Red Cross shelters. This would assist the Red Cross with local access to shelter supplies should an emergency occur in our area or directly in our City. The agreement obligates the City to provide the American Red Cross with a secure and accessible site to offer shelters and other services for disaster victims. We have chosen and agreed upon the following facilities: Paramount Park Community Center, Paramount Park Gym, and Progress Park Plaza. The American Red cross will provide the City with the required indemnification and insurance as it pertains to shelter operations stated in the agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact related to the facility use agreement with Red Cross shelter operations.

SUBJECT: APPROPRIATION OF MEASURE A GRANT FUNDS AND CAPITAL
PROJECT FUNDS BUDGETED TO PARK PLAYGROUND PROJECTS
(CITY PROJECT NOS. 9254, 9350, 9351, 9461) AND THE DILLS PARK RENOVATION PROJECT (CITY PROJECT NO. 9259)
BACKGROUND
The funding for the Park Playground Replacement projects in the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Capital Improvement Budget were all initially allocated to the City’s Measure A park grant funds. The Dills Park Renovation project had a combination of Capital Project Fund (formerly General Fund) and the balance of Measure A funds allocated to the project.
Due to timing of approval of the Measure A grant funds it was unclear whether the initial Park Playground Replacement project at Paramount Park would qualify. With this concern in mind, the funding for the Paramount Park Playground project was shifted to the Capital Project Fund as part of the Midyear Budget Adjustments, with the Capital Project Fund allocation decreasing and the Measure A allocation increasing to the Dills Park Renovation project to match the funding change for the playground.
DISCUSSION
Subsequent to the approval of the Midyear Budget Adjustments made to the funding of the Paramount Park Playground project and the Dills Park Renovation project, staff received notification that the Measure A funding for the Paramount Park Playground project was approved. This approval allows the funding for the Paramount Park Playground project to shift back to Measure A. Additionally, various change order issues have been necessary for the playground projects that need to be allocated.
Agenda Report March 26, 2024
APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS FOR PARK PROJECTS Page 2
The table below summarizes the approved funding allocations for these projects at Midyear and the proposed revision.
FISCAL IMPACT
The revised funding allocation creates an overall budget increase of $9,550 among the four Playground projects and the Dills Park Renovation project. Of that increase, $2,500 is from the Capital Project Fund and $7,050 is from the Measure A Fund to maximize the full use of the total park grant amount currently available to the City.
VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No 2: Community Health - Provide diverse recreational and cultural amenities that support healthy lifestyles and a sense of community. 5: Attractive and Well-Maintained Infrastructure - Develop and maintain City-owned infrastructure, parks, facilities, and amenities that enhance quality of life and the attractiveness of the community.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the revised funding allocation among the five CIP projects listed above and appropriate an additional $2,500 from the Capital Project Fund and $7,050 from the Measure A Fund to cover the total increase of $9,550.

SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN SUBSTANTIAL
AMENDMENT
BACKGROUND
The City Council approved the City’s Five-Year Consolidated Plan (Fiscal Year 2022- 2026) and Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice in May of 2022 and the OneYear Action Plan (Fiscal Year 2023-2024) in May of 2023. As a recipient of federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the City is required to prepare an Annual Action Plan that identifies the specific activities that will use CDBG and HOME funds. The adopted Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-2024 Action Plan needs to be amended to reflect new and amended City priorities. According to Federal rules, any substantial amendments to the approved plan must be formally noticed, and a public hearing is required. Council approval is required before submitting the substantial amendment of the One-Year Action Plan to HUD for approval.
DISCUSSION
Current FY 2023-2024 CDBG Program One-Year Action Plan
The One-Year Action Plan (FY 2023-2024) identifies the specific activities that will use CDBG and HOME funds to achieve certain outcomes related to the established objectives. The Action Plan identifies available resources, annual goals, projects, and activities for the period beginning July 1, 2023, and ending June 30, 2024. For the 2023- 2024 program year, the City received $761,014 of CDBG funds from HUD.
The One-Year Action Plan (FY 2023-2024) allocated $761,014 of CDBG funds to the following program activities to be implemented from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024. Below are the original program allocations for CDBG programs for the 2023-2024 Fiscal Year:

Senior Enrichment Program $114,152
Fair Housing Services $16,000
CDBG Program Administration $136,202
CDBG TOTAL: $761,014
Proposed Amendment
The approved CDBG program allocation included $250,000 for Alley Improvements East Phase. Bids for the Alley Improvements East Phase project came in considerably higher than anticipated. Before an award of contract can be made and to make up the difference from the approved $250,000 allocated amount for the planned activity, a request is proposed to increase the approved budget from $250,000 to $413,281 by utilizing a portion of the unallocated CDBG fund balance from prior years to completely fund the Alley Improvement East Phase programmed activity with CDBG funds. Because the increase is greater than 50 percent, an amendment to the approved FY 2023-2024 OneYear Action Plan is being presented to Council for consideration and approval. No change is being made to the HOME funded activities as part of this substantial amendment. The proposed CDBG program budget will be adjusted as follows:
FY 2023-2024 CDBG PROGRAM
Alley Improvements East Phase $413,300
HOME Improvement Program - CDBG $244,660
Senior Enrichment Program $114,152
Fair Housing Services $16,000
CDBG Program Administration $136,202
CDBG TOTAL: $924,314
As part of the citizen participation process, the City is required to make the Action Plan and any substantial amendments to the plan available to the public for a minimum of 30 days for public comment. To allow for the full 30-day commenting period, the public comment period began on February 28, 2024, and will continue past tonight’s public hearing through March 29, 2024. To date, the City has not received any comments from the public. Any public comments received during the City Council meeting and up to the end of the commenting period of March 29, 2024, for this item will be incorporated into the substantial amendment of the FY 2023-2024 One-Year Action Plan before it is submitted to HUD.
Agenda Report March 26, 2024
CDBG AND HOME FUNDING AMENDMENT Page 3
FISCAL IMPACT
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 Adopted Budget includes an appropriation of $761,014 in CDBG funding. Staff proposes an additional appropriation of $163,300 from the CDBG unallocated fund balance, which will increase the FY 2023-24 CDBG program fund to $924,314. If approved, the remaining CDBG unallocated fund balance will be $382,258.
VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No 1: Safe Community - Provide a safe place to live, work, and visit. 2: Community Health - Provide diverse recreational and cultural amenities that support healthy lifestyles and a sense of community. 3:
Economic Health - Support a healthy, sustainable economy reflecting community values. 4: Environmental Health - Promote, protect, and enhance a healthy, sustainably built, and natural environment. 5: Attractive and Well-Maintained Infrastructure - Develop and maintain City-owned infrastructure, parks, facilities, and amenities that enhance quality of life and the attractiveness of the community. 6: Efficient, Effective, and Fiscally Responsible - Deliver an efficient and effective City government in a fiscally responsible, transparent and collaborative manner.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Conduct a public hearing; adopt the amended One-Year Action Plan (FY 2023-2024); and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to adjust the CDBG activity budget to conform with any change to the formula for grant allocations and execute and submit all required documents and agreements to amend the One-Year Action Plan in compliance with HUD regulations.

Executive Summary
AP-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
1. Introduction
On May 3, 2022, the Paramount City Council adopted the 2022-2026 Consolidated Plan, which described the City’s housing and community development needs, strategies, and activities to address those needs over a five-year period using entitlement grant funds provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The 2023-2024 Action Plan is the second of five annual plans implementing the 2022- 2026 Consolidated Plan Strategic Plan goals via the investment of annual allocations of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) funds from HUD. The Action Plan identifies available resources, annual goals, projects and activities for the period beginning July 1, 2023 and ending June 30, 2024.
The City receives CDBG and HOME funds from HUD on a formula basis each year, and in turn, awards grants and loans to nonprofit, for-profit or public organizations for programs and projects in furtherance of this Plan. The CDBG and HOME programs generally provide for a wide range of eligible activities for the benefit of low- and moderate-income Paramount residents, as discussed below Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 created the CDBG Program. The primary objective of the CDBG program is the development of viable urban communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons of low- and moderate-income. The CDBG regulations require that each activity meet one of the following national objectives:
•
•
•
Benefit low- and moderate-income persons; or
Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums and blight; or Meet other community development needs having a particular urgency (usually the result of a natural disaster).
Each year, the City certifies with the submission of its Annual Action Plan that it has given maximum feasible priority to activities, which meet the first and second objectives above. Additionally, the City certifies that no less than 70 percent of the CDBG funds received, over a three-year certification period, will be designed to benefit low- and moderate-income persons.
HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) Program
The Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act of 1990 created the HOME program to expand the supply of affordable housing for low- and moderate-income households. Often used in partnership with local nonprofit housing development organizations, the HOME program can support a wide range of affordable City of Paramount - 4 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
housing activities, including building, buying, and/or rehabilitating rental and ownership housing or providing direct rental assistance to low- and moderate-income people. 2023-2024 Program Year
For the 2023-2024 program year, the City will receive $761,014 of CDBG and $303,074 of HOME funds from HUD. The 2023-2024 Action Plan allocates $1,064,088 of CDBG and HOME funds in addition to $163,300 of available unallocated CDBG funds and $13,675 of HOME program income funds for a grand total of $1,241,063 funds to the following program activities to be implemented from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024.

2. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan The priority needs and goals identified in the Plan are based on analysis of information including the results of the City’s Resident and Stakeholder Surveys and the housing and community development data elements required by HUD in the online Consolidated Plan system (eCon Planning Suite). Data supplied by HUD includes the 2013-2017 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-Year Estimates and the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) covering the same time. Other sources of information used to identify needs and establish priorities were obtained through consultation with local nonprofit agencies and cited publicly available data.
In consideration of community input and available data, the four priority needs listed below are established as part of this Plan:
•
•
•
Improve neighborhoods, address inaccessible public facilities and infrastructure Promote economic opportunity
Preserve the supply of affordable housing
City of Paramount - 5 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
• Provide service to low-income residents, those with special needs, and the homeless Consistent with HUD’s national goals for the CDBG and HOME programs to provide decent housing opportunities, maintain a suitable living environment and expand economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income residents, the priority needs listed above will be addressed over the next five years through the implementation of activities aligned with the following measurable goals included in the Strategic Plan section of this Plan:

City of Paramount - 6 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
The investment of HUD resources during the 2017-2021 program years was a catalyst for positive change in the community. Together with other federal, state and local investments, HUD resources allowed the City and its partners to:
•
•
•
Preserve and improve the existing housing stock;
Provide fair housing services;
Provide quality supportive services to low- and moderate-income, special needs, and homeless and at risk of homelessness residents;
•
•
Contribute to the well-being of individuals, families, and neighborhoods by maintaining clean, well operating, up to code public infrastructure and facilities; and Provide economic opportunity.
4. Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process The Consolidated Plan regulations at 24 CFR Part 91 provide the citizen participation and consultation requirements for the development of the Consolidated Plan. Chief among those requirements is the need to consult with the Continuum of Care (CoC) to address homelessness, Public Housing Authorities (PHA), business leaders, civic leaders, and public or private agencies that address housing, health, social service, victim services, employment, or education needs of low-income individuals and families, homeless individuals and families, youth, and/or other persons with special needs. Information supplied by these community stakeholders, together with the data supplied by HUD resulted in a well-informed planning document that reflects the housing, community and economic development needs and priorities for the City of Paramount over the next five years.
From October 2021 through May 2022, the City held a community meeting, public hearing, and conducted surveys to afford citizens and local and regional organizations representing low- and moderate-income residents the maximum feasible opportunity to provide input on the housing and community development needs of the City. The resident and stakeholder surveys solicited input from residents and employees working in Paramount. The questionnaire addressed the level of need for various types of improvements that could potentially be addressed with CDBG and HOME resources. The community meeting, hearing, and resident survey were publicly noticed.
5. Summary of public comments
In the development of the 2023-2024 Action Plan, the City solicited applications from fair housing service providers and City Departments to identify projects. The draft 2023-2024 Action Plan was available for public review and comment from April 7, 2023 to May 9, 2023. The City Council convened a public hearing on May 9, 2023, to receive public comments concerning the 2023-2024 Action Plan. Comments received during the public review period and at the Public Hearing are provided in “Appendix A” of this document.
Subsequently, the City made the draft Substantial Amendment to the 2023-2024 Action Plan available for public review and comment from February 28, 2024 to March 29, 2024. Residents were encouraged to review the draft Substantial Amendment and to attend the public hearing on March 26, 2024, or submit City of Paramount - 7 - 2023 Annual Action Plan

6. Summary of comments or views not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them All comments and views received by the City in the development of the Action Plan were accepted and taken into consideration in the development of the Action Plan.
7. Summary
The 2023-2024 Action Plan addresses all four (4) Strategic Plan Goals from the 2022-2023 Consolidated Plan by allocating a total of $761,014 in CDBG funds and $303,074 of HOME funds in addition to $163,300 of available unallocated CDBG funds and $13,675 of HOME program income funds for a grand total of $1, 241,063 funds towards eligible activities that are to be implemented from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024.

Individual stakeholder consultations
Community meetings
Public hearings
Receipt of written comments
To gather the greatest breadth and depth of information, the City consulted with a wide variety of agencies, groups and organizations concerning the housing, community and economic development needs of the community. Each of the agencies, groups or organizations consulted is represented below. The input received from these consultation partners helped establish and inform the objectives and goals described in the Strategic Plan. Specific comments received from these organizations are included as Appendix A.
In the development of the 2023-2024 Action Plan, the City provided each agency with an opportunity to comment on the draft Action Plan during the public review and comment period.
Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction’s activities to enhance coordination between public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health and service agencies (91.215(I)).
The City recognizes the importance of careful coordination and alignment among various service providers to maximize the effectiveness of the CDBG and HOME programs. As a result, during the development of this Consolidated Plan, the City consulted closely with organizations that provide assisted housing, health services and other community-focused programs. Outreach efforts included surveys including specific questions associated with coordination, invitations to community meetings and follow-up in-person interviews where appropriate.
The City further recognizes the importance of continued coordination and alignment during the preparation of the 2023-2024 Action Plan with these organizations and agencies.

City of Paramount - 10 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
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 Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), the lead agency of the Continuum of Care (CoC) for Los Angeles County, guides the development of homeless strategies and the implementation of programs to end homelessness throughout the region. The CoC is comprised of a network of public, private, faithbased, for-profit, and nonprofit service providers who utilize several federal, state, and local resources in providing services for homeless persons. The County and its cities, including the City of Paramount, also provide resources for services that assist the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless. The nonprofit and faith-based community plays a key role in the current CoC system. Hundreds of agencies throughout the County provide programs ranging from feeding the homeless on the street to creating permanent supportive housing opportunities. These services are available to homeless families with children as well as single men and women. The nonprofit and faith-based community also serves special needs populations, such as victims of domestic violence, veterans, persons with disabilities, and unaccompanied youth.
Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards and evaluate outcomes, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the administration of HMIS
The City is not a direct recipient of ESG funding. However, it is a participating jurisdiction in the COC and works closely with the homeless system to create funding policies and procedures for ESG.

Table 4 - Other local / regional / federal planning efforts Describe cooperation and coordination with other public entities, including the State and any adjacent units of general local government, in the implementation of the Consolidated Plan (91.215(l)) To enhance coordination among the CoC, public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health and service agencies, the City invited each of these entities to provide input on the needs of the community in the development of this Consolidated Plan. The City monitors CoC policy making to ensure that local efforts correspond to changes in the regional approach to addressing the needs of homeless and low-income people. Further, the Community Services Department works with recipients of the City’s community grant program to ensure a coordinated effort among service agencies in the region who address the needs of Paramount residents, including but not limited to chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, unaccompanied youth, and persons who were recently homeless but now live-in permanent housing. To promote economic opportunities City of Paramount - 25 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
for low-income residents, the City’s Planning Department implements the Commercial Rehabilitation Program to work with local business owners to enhance the appearance of their business to promote commerce that leads to jobs and other economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income residents. To the greatest extent feasible, the City also disseminates information on job opportunities through appropriate channels when implementing housing construction, housing rehabilitation or other public construction contracts assisted with $100,000 or more of CDBG or HOME funds, consistent with the objectives of Section 3 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1968.

1. Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation The City established and followed a process for the development of this Consolidated Plan and the Assessment of Fair Housing that included broad participation from the community. These activities were coordinated and implemented by the Planning Department with assistance from the Community Services Department and other groups. The City sought input from its residents by circulating a survey to residents inquiring about fair housing choice and community needs. The survey was available online and in hardcopy format in English and in Spanish. The City received a total of 315 responses from its Resident Survey and 8 from its Stakeholder Survey. The survey results and the English and Spanish survey forms are included in Appendix B. of the Consolidated Plan.
In accordance with the City’s Citizen Participation Plan, residents and stakeholders were able to participate in the development of the 2022‐2026 Consolidated Plan through surveys, community meetings, and public hearings. Two publicly noticed meetings were held in the fall of 2021, and one was held in the spring of 2022.
The first two publicly noticed meeting were convened on Friday, October 29, 2021 at 10 am and 6 pm to obtain the views of the community on the City’s housing and community development needs. Four written public comments were received during this hearing. On Tuesday, May 3, 2022, at 6 pm the third publicly noticed meeting was conducted before the City Council to obtain the views of the community concerning the draft 2022‐2026 Consolidated Plan. A summary of any comments received is included in Appendix B, including any comments not accepted and the reasons why (as applicable).

Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied City of Paramount is expected to receive HOME funding which can be leveraged with CDBG funding if used for affordable housing. The City will leverage HOME funding if future projects are presented during the next five years. The HOME program requires a 25 percent match based on fund expenditure, unless a jurisdiction meets the thresholds to have the match requirements reduced; those threshold conditions are: 1) Fiscal distress; 2) Severe fiscal distress, and 3) Presidentially declared major disasters covered under the Stafford Act. The City of Paramount has been identified by HUD as a fiscally distressed jurisdiction and has been granted a 50 percent match reduction for the fiscal year 2023-2024.
Depending on the financing structure of a given activity, it may be advantageous for the City to use CDBG funds to leverage appropriate state, local and private resources, including but not limited to those listed below.

Matching Requirements
HOME
HUD requires HOME recipients (PJ’s) to match 25 percent of their HOME annual allocation. In accordance with 24 CFR 92.222, PJ’s satisfying the distress criteria established by the HOME Program regulations are provided a match reduction. The match reductions are granted due to fiscal distress, severe fiscal distress, and Presidential disaster declarations. For those PJs with both fiscal distress and Presidential disaster match reductions, the PJ may take the higher match reduction for the current fiscal year.
When a local jurisdiction meets one of the distress criteria, it is determined to be in fiscal distress and receives a 50 percent reduction of match. If a local jurisdiction satisfies both of the distress criteria, it is determined to be in severe fiscal distress and receives a 100 percent reduction of match. The City of Paramount has received a 50% match reduction from HUD, and therefore, is required to match 12.5% of HOME Funds using non-federal funds. The City of Paramount leverages HOME funds with other local and private non-federal resources.
If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan
Land or property necessary to address the needs identified in the Consolidated Plan would need to be acquired using HUD grant funds or other resources.
Discussion
Assuming continued level funding of the CDBG and HOME programs, the City expects to spend approximately $5.3 million of CDBG and HOME funds on projects that provide decent housing, a suitable living environment and expanded economic opportunities during the period of the five-year Consolidated Plan between July 2022 and June 2026.

Rather, resources will be available to address the needs of all low- and moderate-income residents and residents with special needs without regard to their location within the City, which is comprised of approximately 4.8 square miles. The City is primarily low-and moderate-income with nearly all Census Tract Block Groups qualifying with more than 51 percent low- and moderate-income residents.
Discussion
Based on the Strategic Plan, the City is allocating 100 percent of its CDBG funds (excluding Administration) and HOME funds (excluding Administration) for program year 2023-2024 to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate-income people, without regard to their physical location within the City of Paramount.
City of Paramount - 39 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
Affordable Housing
AP-55 Affordable Housing – 91.220(g)
Introduction
The 2022-2026 Strategic Plan provides the framework for investing CDBG and HOME funds in the City of Paramount. Housing programs are a high priority need and will be addressed by activities performed under the affordable housing preservation, development, and access goal.
Expand the Supply of Affordable Housing
Paramount residents have a significant need for high quality and affordable housing. An estimated 70 percent of Paramount’s 14,340 households carry housing costs in excess of 30 percent of their income. The situation is most tenuous for the 2,565 renter households with incomes below 50 percent of AMI, which are paying over 50 percent of their income for housing. and are considered the most at risk of becoming homeless.
Preserve the Supply of Affordable Housing
As the City's housing stock ages, a growing percentage of housing units may need rehabilitation to allow them to remain safe and habitable. The situation is of particular concern for low- and moderate-income home owners who are generally not in a financial position to properly maintain their homes.
Paramount’s housing stock is aging and residents with low and/ or fixed incomes may not be financially positioned to make necessary repairs. Approximately 66 percent of Paramount’s 14,340 units of housing stock was constructed before 1980, and almost 47 percent (6,670 units) of those units were occupied by low- and moderate-income households.
Preservation of the physical and functional integrity of existing housing units occupied by low- and moderateincome households is a cost-effective way to invest limited resources to retain existing housing units that are already affordable to low- and moderate-income households in the community. Addressing substandard housing conditions through housing preservation activities provide that all economic segments of the community have the means to ensure that their property meets local standards and that all Paramount residents have the opportunity to live in decent housing.

AP-60 Public Housing – 91.220(h)
Introduction
Public housing and other assisted housing programs are part of the efforts by Los Angeles County to address the affordable housing needs of extremely low- and very low-income families in Paramount. The Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA) oversees HUD public housing programs for participating jurisdictions, including Paramount.
LACDA administers the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8), which provides rental assistance to 62 incorporated cities and towns and all of the unincorporated areas in Los Angeles County.
LACDA provides affordable housing for low-income families, seniors, and disabled persons.
The mission of LACDA is “provide safe, decent and sanitary housing conditions within a suitable living environment for very low-income and low-income families and to manage resources efficiently. The LACDA is to promote personal, economic, and social upward mobility to provide families the opportunity to make the transition from subsidized to non-subsidized housing.”
According to the 2020 HUD Picture report there are no public housing developments in Paramount. All public housing is administered via housing choice vouchers of which there are 463 in Paramount. LACDA monitors all units to ensure they are in adequate condition.
Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing The most pressing need is the high demand for affordable housing throughout Los Angeles County. This is City of Paramount - 41 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
documented by the long waitlist, which consists of 60,000 families.
Beyond the need for affordable housing, LACDA seeks to address the needs of residents to gain access to service programs such as: job training and placement and self-sufficiency.
Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership
LACDA actively encourages residents to be involved in the organization through resident councils and active participation in housing authority decisions via surveys and other forms of engagement. LACDA also maintains quarterly newsletters for Section 8 tenants, public housing residents, and Section 8 property owners.
LACDA encourages residents to explore homeownership opportunities. LACDA administers Family Self‐ Sufficiency (FSS) program for public conventional housing and Housing Choice Voucher program residents.
The FSS program provides critical tools and supportive services to foster a resident’s transition from financial and housing assistance to economic and housing self‐sufficiency, most importantly homeownership.
To support this effort, LACDA utilizes marketing materials to outreach and further promote the program’s requirements and benefits to all public housing residents. For families that are eligible to participate, a Contract of Participation (COP) is prepared to govern the terms and conditions of their participation and an Individual Training Service Plan (ITSP) is created that outlines the following: supportive services to be provided, activities to be completed by the participant, and agreed upon completion dates for the services and activities. The COP is valid for five years and may be extended to allow the family to meet their ITSP goals.
Once the COP is established and the family experiences an increase in tenant rent because of earned income, an escrow account in their name is established and increased earned income is deposited into this account. Escrow accounts are disbursed to the family once the family has graduated successfully from the program. Families are encouraged to utilize these funds toward educational and homeownership endeavors.
If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be provided or other assistance
N/A, LACDA is designated as a High Performing Public Housing Agency.
Discussion
LACDA is well-positioned to continue providing Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers in the City of Paramount and throughout Los Angeles County.
City of Paramount - 42 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i) Introduction
Preventing and ending homelessness is a HUD priority addressed regionally through coordination of strategies carried out locally by government agencies, community-based organizations, and faith-based groups. Consistent with this approach, the City supports the efforts of Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) and the Continuum of Care (CoC) and its member organizations that address homelessness throughout the County. The City will use General Funds, CDBG-CV, and HOME ARP funds to support local service providers with programs that provide homeless services and to expand the supply of affordable housing and to prevent homelessness for low- and moderate-income residents.
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 Paramount supports the efforts of the Los Angles Homeless Service Authority (LAHSA), County Continuum of Care (CoC), and its member organizations. In alignment with this strategy (link to 51 strategies approved by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors https://homeless.lacounty.gov/strategies/) the City has set a goal of providing public services to at risk of homelessness, homeless, and special needs residents during fiscal year 2023-2024. The City will continue to distribute General Funds, CDBG-CV, and HOME ARP funds to local nonprofit organizations serving these populations. The grants are administered by the City’s Community Services Department. The City of Paramount does not receive ESG funding. 2022 PIT Count Results
The 2022 PIT Count reported that 69,144 people are homeless in Los Angeles County on any given night.
Overall, 2022 PIT Count illustrates a 4.1 percent increase in homelessness when compared to the 2020 PIT Count. The City of Paramount is part of Service Planning Area (SPA) 6 – South Los Angeles. The 2022 PIT Count reported that 180 people are homeless on any given night in Paramount and that 14,598 people are homeless on any given night in SPA 6. According to this data, Paramount accounts for 1.2 percent of the homeless population in SPA 6.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City of Paramount supports the efforts of the Los Angles Homeless Service Authority (LAHSA), County Continuum of Care (CoC), and its member organizations to provide a spectrum of services and housing to help the homeless and those at risk of homelessness gain stability. In 2017 the City adopted a number of zoning ordinances to facilitate development of housing, shared housing, emergency and transitional shelter, and single-room occupancy housing. Furthermore, the City’s one-year goal of affordable housing preservation, development, and access addresses the underlying issue of inadequate supply of affordable housing and anticipates assisting four households. The City does not receive ESG funds.
City of Paramount - 43 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
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’s one-year goal of affordable housing preservation, development, and access addresses the underlying issue of inadequate supply of affordable housing and anticipates as 8 households. Furthermore, between 2017 and 2021 the City adopted a number of zoning ordinances to facilitate development of housing, shared housing, emergency and transitional shelter and single-room occupancy housing. The City does not receive ESG funds.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely lowincome 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 strategies discussed above will help low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless. The City’s General Fund, CDBG-CV, and HOME ARP funds will support public services to extremely low-, low-, and moderate-income residents. CDBG and HOME funds will support the maintenance of affordable housing throughout the City and ease pressure on the local housing market to the extent possible.
Discussion
The City of Paramount is committed to using the tool at its disposal to work to meet the needs of those experiencing homelessness and at risk of homelessness. The City does not receive ESG funds. Between 2017 and 2021 the City adopted a number of zoning ordinances to facilitate development of housing, shared housing, emergency and transitional shelter and single room occupancy housing. The City plans to commit General and HOME funds to services for the homeless and those at risk of homelessness and to preserve affordable housing. Additionally, the City is committed to working with a CHDO to leverage Affordable Housing Fund resources for the creation of additional affordable housing where infill opportunities exist.

AP-75 Barriers to Affordable Housing – 91.220(j)
Introduction
A barrier to affordable housing is a public policy or nongovernmental condition that constrains the development or rehabilitation of affordable housing. Barriers can include land use controls, property taxes, state prevailing wage requirements, environmental protection, cost of land, and monetary resources. Barriers to affordable housing are distinguished from impediments to fair housing choice in the sense that barriers are lawful and impediments to fair housing choice are usually unlawful.
Based on information gathered during community meetings, the 2022 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI), Consolidated Plan Resident Survey, the 2021-2029 Housing Element and market analysis, the primary barriers to affordable housing in Paramount are •
•
•
•
•
housing affordability,
the lack of monetary resources necessary to develop and sustain affordable housing, concentrations of racial and ethnic minorities,
access to opportunities and exposure to adverse community factors, and housing issues.
These barriers are interconnected. Demand for affordable housing exceeds the supply, insufficient resources are available to increase the supply of affordable housing resulting in renter households carrying a housing cost burden in excess of 30 percent of AMI and/ or living in areas with low access to opportunities and high exposure to adverse community factors. In the last five years, the elimination of local Redevelopment Agencies by the State of California resulted in the loss of a crucial resource for the development and preservation of affordable housing. While there are mechanisms whereby certain affordable housing assets tied to the former Redevelopment Agencies may be utilized today, these resources are finite and scarce.
According to Paramount’s 2022 AI, when compared to the region, which is defined by HUD as the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim Metropolitan Statistical Area, Paramount residents of all protected class groups are more likely to be exposed to poverty, less likely to live in environmentally healthy neighborhoods, less likely to live near employment centers, and less likely to live in neighborhoods with high labor force participation and educational attainment. Most Paramount residents, 95 percent, identify ethnically as Hispanic. Compared to the region Paramount has approximately double the percentage of Hispanic, Mexican-born, and Spanish with Limited English Proficiency residents.
Hispanic residents in Paramount have relatively better access to opportunities and lower exposure to adverse community factors that non-Hispanic Black/ African American, White, and Asian/ Pacific Islander residents.
Despite majority minority status, Hispanic households and Black/ African American households are more likely to experience one or more housing problem than other groups and a lower rate of homeownership than non-Hispanic Whites and Asian/ Pacific Islander households.
City of Paramount - 45 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
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 address housing affordability and the lack of monetary resources for affordable housing, this Strategic Plan calls for the investment of a significant portion of CDBG and HOME funds for the development of new and preservation of existing affordable rental housing units over the next five years. Although the City no longer has access to Redevelopment Housing Set-Aside funds, it will continue to leverage CDBG and HOME funds to attract private and other available public resources.
To promote fair housing, the following goals have been established for the City of Paramount.
Goal Program Marketing
Description Paramount shall ensure that all HUD-funded programs are marketed in high poverty areas within their jurisdiction in manners that will be accessible to residents to ensure that low-income residents and high poverty neighborhoods have best access to all program activities. Marketing shall be conducted in accordance with the City’s Language Access Plan.
Goal
Description
Promote Fair Housing Education for Tenants and Homebuyers Paramount shall fund and promote fair housing training for tenants, homebuyers and potential homebuyers to ensure that residents are fully informed of their rights as it relates to housing.
Goal Promote Fair Housing Education for Landlords and Realtors Description Paramount shall fund and promote fair housing training for landlords and realtors to ensure that they understand the fair housing requirements and rights of tenants and homebuyers.
Goal Maintain Fair Housing Resources on Website
Description In collaboration with the fair housing provider for Paramount, maintain a page on the City’s website that provides access to fair housing resources and documents. Further, collaborate with the fair housing provider to promote trainings and other fair housing related events.
Goal
Description
Maintain Housing and Community Development Resources List Establish and maintain a list of all housing and community development resources that is updated annually. This list may include services such as grant or loan programs for reasonable modifications and access to programs such as Meals on Wheels.
Discussion
To address housing affordability and the lack of monetary resources for affordable housing, the 2022-2026 Consolidated Plan - Strategic Plan calls for the investment of a significant portion of CDBG and HOME funds for the preservation of 50 affordable owner-occupied housing units. Although the City no longer has access to Redevelopment Housing Set-Aside funds, CDBG, HOME and other local resources will be leveraged to attract private and other available public resources for affordable housing.
City of Paramount - 46 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction
The City of Paramount’s planned investment of CDBG and HOME funds through the 2022-2023 Action Plan will address obstacles to fostering development of and maintaining existing affordable housing; evaluating and reducing lead-based paint hazards; reducing the number of families living in at or below the poverty line; developing institutional structure; and enhanced coordination among collaborative agencies and organizations. Additionally, this section will identify obstacles to meeting underserved populations needs and propose action to overcome those obstacles.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The primary obstacles to meeting the underserved needs of low- and moderate-income people include lack of funding from federal, state and other local sources, the high cost of housing that is not affordable to lowincome people. To address these obstacles, at least in part, the City is investing CDBG and HOME funds through the 2023-2024 Action Plan in projects that will support the preservation of owner-occupied housing units that are affordable to low- and moderate-income families. To address underserved needs, the City is allocating 100 percent of its CDBG (excluding Administration) and HOME (excluding Administration) funds for program year 2023-2024 to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate-income people.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing In the implementation of the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan, the City will invest CDBG and HOME funds to preserve and maintain affordable housing by operating the Home Improvement Program which provides grants and loans to low- and moderate-income homeowners of single-family detached properties and mobile/manufactured homes in the City of Paramount. It will also work to identify a CHDO to partner with to leverage other federal, state, and local funds.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
The Residential Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 (Title X) emphasizes prevention of childhood lead poisoning through housing-based approaches. To reduce lead-based paint hazards, the City of Paramount Home Improvement Program will conduct lead-based paint testing and risk assessments for each property assisted that was built prior to January 1, 1978 and will incorporate safe work practices or abatement into the scope of work as required to reduce lead-based paint hazards in accordance with 24 CFR Part 35.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families The implementation of CDBG and HOME activities meeting the goals established in the Consolidated PlanStrategic Plan and this Action Plan will help to reduce the number of poverty-level families by:
City of Paramount - 47 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
•
•
•
Supporting activities to improve neighborhoods, facilities, and infrastructure; Supporting activities to promote economic opportunity;
Supporting activities to preserve the supply of housing affordable to low- and moderate-income residents; and
• Supporting activities to provide services to low-income residents, those with special needs, and the homeless.
In addition to these local efforts, mainstream state and federal resources also contribute to reducing the number of individuals and families in poverty. Federal programs such as the Earned Income Tax Credit and Head Start provide a pathway out of poverty for families who are ready to pursue employment and educational opportunities. Additionally in California, the primary programs that assist families in poverty are CalWORKS, CalFresh (formerly food stamps) and Medi-Cal. Together these programs provide individuals and families with employment assistance, subsidy for food, medical care, childcare and cash payments to meet basic needs such as housing, nutrition, and transportation. Other services are available to assist persons suffering from substance abuse, domestic violence, and mental illness.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
The institutional delivery system in Paramount is high-functioning and collaborative—particularly the relationship between local government and the nonprofit sector comprised of a network of capable nonprofit organizations that are delivering a full range of services to residents. Strong City departments anchor the administration of HUD grant programs and the housing, community and economic development activities that are implemented by the City.
In order to support and enhance this existing institutional structure, the City of Paramount will collaborate with nonprofit agencies to ensure that the needs of low- and moderate-income residents are met as envisioned within the 2022-2026 Consolidated Plan - Strategic Plan.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies
To enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies, the City will continue consulting with and inviting the participation of a wide variety of agencies and organizations involved in the delivery of housing and supportive services to low- and moderate-income residents in Paramount— particularly the low-and moderate- income areas.
Discussion:
In the implementation of the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan, the City will invest CDBG and HOME resources to address obstacles to meet underserved needs, preserve affordable housing, reduce lead-based paint hazards, reduce the number of poverty-level families, develop institutional structure and enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies.

HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME)
Reference 24 CFR 91.220(l)(2)
A description of other forms of investment being used beyond those identified in Section 92.205 is as follows:
The City will not use any other forms of investment beyond those identified in Section 92.205.
A description of the guidelines that will be used for resale or recapture of HOME funds when used for homebuyer activities as required in 92.254, is as follows:
The HOME regulations (24 CFR 92.254) require the City of Paramount to place certain restrictions on HOME-assisted ownership housing in order to help preserve affordable housing throughout the City. If ownership of a property is transferred during the relevant affordability period, or the low-income owner no longer occupies the unit as a principal residence, the City must implement either resale or recapture provisions to preserve affordable housing units.
Affordability Preservation - The City imposes resale restrictions upon homes purchased with HOME First Time Homebuyer Assistance funds.
Mechanisms of Enforcement - The method of affordability preservation will be clearly stated in the written Participation Agreement with the homebuyer. In addition, covenants running with the land will be recorded and used as the mechanism to impose and enforce the affordability preservation requirements.
Period of Affordability - The HOME regulations require that assisted properties remain affordable for a minimum specified period of time, dependent on the level of HOME funds invested. The required minimum affordability periods under the HOME program are summarized below:
HOME – Minimum Affordability Periods
Less than $15,000
$15,000 - $40,000
$40,000 or more
5 years
10 years
15 years
Resale Provisions (Development Subsidy Project)
If the participant elects to sell the HOME assisted property prior to the expiration of the affordability period, the assisted unit must be made available for subsequent purchase only to another homebuyer whose family qualifies as a low-income family and will use the property as its principal residence. The City will review the qualifications of the purchaser to determine eligibility and affordability.
The affordable determinations for the property will be based on the following:
The sales price must be affordable to a household with income at or below an amount equal to 90% of the current income limits for 80% of area median income for Los Angeles County.
An affordable housing cost for the acquiring household shall be based on the lower of:
Total monthly housing costs that do not exceed 30% of monthly income, or For households at or below 80% of area median income, the product of 30 percent times 60 percent of the area median income adjusted for family size appropriate for the unit.
City of Paramount - 50 - 2023 Annual Action Plan
The participant will be allowed to receive their acquisition investment and any capital improvements. The price at resale will provide the original HOME-assisted owner a fair return on their investment. Dependent on the net proceeds for the sale, and notwithstanding the foregoing, the seller shall be entitled to receive a minimum return on their investment (down-payment and City approved capital improvements) that is at least equal to the net change in the area median income for Los Angeles County as measured from the date of their acquisition to the date of sale.
In the event of a proposed resale transaction where the only qualified low-income homebuyer(s) affordable housing cost yields a sales price that is insufficient to provide a fair return to the original HOMEassisted homebuyer, the City may use additional HOME funds pursuant to 24 CFR 92.254(a)(9) or other available affordable housing resources to assist the only qualified low-income homebuyer(s) in purchasing the housing at an affordable housing cost.
Foreclosures
The affordability preservation restrictions may terminate upon occurrence of any of the following events:
•
•
•
Foreclosure
Transfer in lieu of foreclosure; or
Assignment of an FHA insured mortgage to HUD
The City may use purchase options, rights of first refusal or other preemptive rights to purchase the housing before foreclosure to preserve affordability. The affordability restrictions shall be revived according to the original terms if, during the original affordability period, the owner of record before the event of termination cures the default and retains ownership interest in the housing.
In the event of foreclosure of the first mortgage, the homeowner agrees that the net proceeds of a foreclosure sale (after payment of the prior mortgage) shall be paid to the City of Paramount, as payment for the amount loaned under the Loan agreement and its share in any available equity. The City shall exercise good faith efforts to salvage the project and preserve it for affordable housing.
A description of the guidelines for resale or recapture that ensures the affordability of units acquired with HOME funds? See 24 CFR 92.254(a)(4) are as follows:

ANTECEDENTES
El Ayuntamiento adoptó el Plan Consolidado de Cinco Años el 3 de mayo de 2022. El Plan Consolidado es una estrategia de cinco años para la inversión de fondos de subvención de fórmula de HUD en la Ciudad de Paramount. El Plan de Acción Anual es la solicitud anual de la Ciudad a HUD para los fondos de la Subvención Global de Desarrollo Comunitario y los fondos de Asociaciones de Inversión HOME.
El plan preliminar de enmienda al Plan Consolidado 2022-2026 modificara las medidas de rendimiento y las fuentes de financiación del Plan Consolidado existente. La propuesta preliminar de plan de acción anual 2023-2024 propone asignar aproximadamente $1,064,088 en fondos de CDBG y HOME para proyectos y actividades eligibles.
En caso de que la cantidad actual de fondos de CDBG y HOME sea mayor o menor de lo anticipado, el Ayuntamiento ajustara la cantidad de fondos proporcionalmente de cada proyecto/actividad identificada en la propuesta preliminar de plan de acción anual y en cumplimiento con los requisitos reglamentarios para las asignaciones de fondos a ciertos proyectos/actividades de CDBG o HOME.

HOME Program 95 Percent Homeownership
Value Limit Analysis per 24 CFR 92.254
Prepared May 11, 2023
According to the HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) program regulations, HOME-assisted ownership housing must be modest housing with a maximum purchase price (for homeownership programs) or after-rehabilitation property value (for rehabilitation programs) that does not exceed 95 percent of the median purchase price for the area as published by HUD or as determined by the Participating Jurisdiction (City of Paramount) in accordance with 24 CFR
92.254(a)(2)(iii).
The current HUD-published value for existing 1-unit homes in Los Angeles County is lower than the median existing single family and existing condominium residential purchase prices in City of Paramount and serves as a potential barrier to program participation.
In accordance with the procedures delineated at 24 CFR 92.254(a)(2)(iii), an analysis was performed to establish a local 95 percent of the median area purchase price limit for existing single-family residences and existing condominiums.
Based on data derived from the ParcelQuest Appraise covering a 12-month period between May 11, 2022, and May 11, 2023, the following 95 percent of median purchase price limits were determined:
Housing Type
Detached Single
Family
Number of Sales Median Price
$650,000
95% of Median Price
55 $617,500
Condominium 23 $429,000 $407,550
The 95% of Median Price values shown in the table above will allow the City to use HOME funds to assist program participants in a manner consistent with HOME program requirements. For any other housing type not listed above, the City will use the current effective values published by HUD. This analysis is submitted with the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan in accord with 24 CFR
92.254(a)(2)(iii).

Table 3 - Agencies, groups, organizations who participated A description of the guidelines that will be used for resale or recapture of HOME funds when used for homebuyer activities as required in 92.254, is as follows:
The HOME regulations (24 CFR 92.254) require the City of Paramount to place certain restrictions on HOME-assisted ownership housing in order to help preserve affordable housing throughout the City. If ownership of a property is transferred during the relevant affordability period, or the low-income owner no longer occupies the unit as a principal residence, the City must implement either resale or recapture provisions to preserve affordable housing units.
Affordability Preservation - The City imposes resale restrictions upon homes purchased with HOME First Time Homebuyer Assistance funds.
Mechanisms of Enforcement - The method of affordability preservation will be clearly stated in the written Participation Agreement with the homebuyer. In addition, covenants running with the land will be recorded and used as the mechanism to impose and enforce the affordability preservation requirements.
Period of Affordability - The HOME regulations require that assisted properties remain affordable for a minimum specified period of time, dependent on the level of HOME funds invested. The required minimum affordability periods under the HOME program are summarized below:
HOME – Minimum Affordability Periods
Less than $15,000
$15,000 - $40,000
$40,000 or more
5 years
10 years
15 years
Resale Provisions (Development Subsidy Project)
If the participant elects to sell the HOME assisted property prior to the expiration of the affordability period, the assisted unit must be made available for subsequent purchase only to another homebuyer whose family qualifies as a low-income family and will use the property as its principal residence. The City will review the qualifications of the purchaser to determine eligibility and affordability.
The affordable determinations for the property will be based on the following:
The sales price must be affordable to a household with income at or below an amount equal to 90% of the current income limits for 80% of area median income for Los Angeles County.
An affordable housing cost for the acquiring household shall be based on the lower of:
Total monthly housing costs that do not exceed 30% of monthly income, or For households at or below 80% of area median income, the product of 30 percent times 60 percent of the area median income adjusted for family size appropriate for the unit.
The participant will be allowed to receive their acquisition investment and any capital improvements. The price at resale will provide the original HOME-assisted owner a fair return on their investment. Dependent on the net proceeds for the sale, and notwithstanding the foregoing, the seller shall be entitled to receive a minimum return on their investment (down-payment and City approved capital improvements) that is at least equal to the net change in the area median income for Los Angeles County as measured from the date of their acquisition to the date of sale.
In the event of a proposed resale transaction where the only qualified low-income homebuyer(s) affordable housing cost yields a sales price that is insufficient to provide a fair return to the original HOME-assisted homebuyer, the City may use additional HOME funds pursuant to 24 CFR
92.254(a)(9) or other available affordable housing resources to assist the only qualified lowincome homebuyer(s) in purchasing the housing at an affordable housing cost.
Foreclosures
The affordability preservation restrictions may terminate upon occurrence of any of the following events:
•
•
•
Foreclosure
Transfer in lieu of foreclosure; or
Assignment of an FHA insured mortgage to HUD
The City may use purchase options, rights of first refusal or other preemptive rights to purchase the housing before foreclosure to preserve affordability. The affordability restrictions shall be revived according to the original terms if, during the original affordability period, the owner of record before the event of termination cures the default and retains ownership interest in the housing.
In the event of foreclosure of the first mortgage, the homeowner agrees that the net proceeds of a foreclosure sale (after payment of the prior mortgage) shall be paid to the City of Paramount, as payment for the amount loaned under the Loan agreement and its share in any available equity.
The City shall exercise good faith efforts to salvage the project and preserve it for affordable housing.
A description of the guidelines for resale or recapture that ensures the affordability of units acquired with HOME funds? See 24 CFR 92.254(a)(4) are as follows:
See above.

SUBJECT: APPROPRIATION OF DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION (DOE) GRANT
REVENUE FOR PEP SCHOLARSHIPS
BACKGROUND
In 2022, Congresswoman Roybal-Allard assisted the City of Paramount in obtaining a Department of Education grant in the amount of $550,000. The grant request consisted of $200,000 for the PEP Scholarship Program and $350,000 for facility and technology renovations at the Spane Learning Center. The $200,000 in PEP scholarship funds was to assist the program due to unrealized fundraising revenue in 2020 and 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The facility renovations were to update the restrooms and the educational space to make it a more supportive space for the students and adults that use the Spane Learning Center for their educational programs. The technology renovations consist of new Chrome books for the students and a new audio-visual system to support various learning mediums for the educational programs.
DISCUSSION
The Fiscal Year 2022/23 Budget included a Community Promotion expenditure line item in the amount of $200,000 to provide a pass-through account for the funds to be paid to the Paramount Education Partnership, Inc. (PEP) equal to the amount of Department of Education grant funds to be received for the PEP Scholarship program. Unfortunately, this line item was mistakenly excluded from the Fiscal Year 2023/24 Budget and requires an appropriation of $200,000 to provide a budget in which to expend the money through a deposit to the PEP scholarship account.
FISCAL IMPACT
The grant funds in the amount of $200,000 have been received and deposited in the City financial accounts. The $200,000 in expenditures for the PEP Scholarship Program will be funded by $200,000 in grant funds received for this purpose from the Department of Education grant.

The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No 2: Community Health - Provide diverse recreational and cultural amenities that support healthy lifestyles and a sense of community.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Increase the FY 2023-24 estimated grant revenue from the Department of Education by $200,000 and appropriate the same amount in the FY 2023-24 Community Promotion budget to provide for PEP Scholarship Program support.

SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO PURCHASE PARAMOUNT PARK GYMNASIUM
CURTAIN DIVIDER AND SPORTS BLEACHERS
BACKGROUND
The Paramount City Council approved the replacement of the curtain divider for the Paramount Park Gymnasium (City Project No. 9457) as part of the FY 2023-24 Adopted Budget. The new gym curtain would be a motorized curtain that moves up and down vertically and would replace a 20+ year old manually operated curtain that moves horizontally. Additionally, the City Council approved as part of the Community Services operating budget a capital outlay purchase for new sports bleachers. The new bleachers would replace the existing ballfield bleachers at Paramount Park and Progress Park with the same size units as well as replace the portable benches at the Paramount Park Gymnasium.
DISCUSSION
BSN Sports has submitted pricing for the replacement of the Paramount Gymnasium curtain divider as well as pricing for the replacement sports bleachers. Pursuant to Section 3.12.070 of the City’s Municipal Code, the City may forego formal bidding procedures and procure through a cooperative purchasing program. BSN Sports provides pricing through a cooperative purchasing program, OMNIA Partners, that serves government, education, and non-profit organizations and offers competitively solicited cooperative contracts.
OMNIA Partners has secured competitive pricing with approved vendors, including BSN Sports. This saves the effort and time in developing a bid invitation and going through the bid solicitation and acceptance process, thereby allowing staff to purchase specific products and services from BSN Sports.
BSN Sports submitted a cost of $29,292.06 for the Paramount Gymnasium curtain divider. This quote includes the cost of installation of the gym curtain divider only and will require the City contract separately the installation of electrical connections. BSN Sports also submitted a cost of $54,952.03 for 10 sports bleachers for the four (4) ballfields at Paramount Park and Progress Park and four (4) portable benches for the Paramount Park Gymnasium.
Agenda Report March 26, 2024

FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for the Paramount Gymnasium curtain divider project was included in the FY 2023-24 Capital Improvements Budget using an appropriation of $100,000 from the Community Benefit Agreement with the Go Store It self-storage development.
Funding for the sports bleachers and portable benches was included in the FY 2023-24 Community Services Department operating budget in the amount of $77,200 from the Equipment Replacement Fund.

SUBJECT: ANALYSIS AND MODERNIZATION OF THE CITY’S BUSINESS LICENSE
TAX ORDINANCE
BACKGROUND
From time to time, staff reviews City ordinances to ensure they reflect the current laws and regulations and continue to align with the goals and objectives set forth in the vision, mission, and values of the City. As such, staff recently reviewed the Business License Tax ordinance which was adopted prior to 1974. Thus, the formula that determines the rate a business pays for a business license is over 50 years old and is not the current industry standard. Staff engaged HdL Companies to conduct a study and assist in analyzing the modernization of the Business License Tax.
DISCUSSION
The City requires entities or persons that conduct business in the City to obtain a business license and pay a business license tax. The City has approximately 3,040 businesses that pay a business license tax. The City’s current business license tax formula is based on the number of employees. Depending on their type, businesses that are located inside of the city pay a tiered rate based on the number of people they employ, and businesses located outside of the City pay a flat basic rate. Small businesses make up 52% of all businesses operating in the City. Revenues generated from these taxes are deposited in the City’s General Fund and expended for vital municipal services. Below is a breakdown of the current business types, total count of each business type, and the primary tax type that they pay:
Agenda Report March 26, 2024
ANALYSIS AND MODERNIZATION OF THE BUSINESS LICENSE TAX Page 2 Current Tax Structures
Results of Study
The study conducted by HdL Companies found that the current tiered rate employeebased tax structure is regressive, which means that currently, larger businesses are paying less on average per employee and smaller businesses are paying more. The result is a tax structure that is inequitable to small businesses. For example, for large businesses that employ a larger number of employees, the tax rate for over 25 employees goes down to $1.50 per employee, whereas smaller businesses that employ under 5 employees pay a rate of $8.30 per employee. Smaller businesses pay a much higher effective tax rate because of this structure.
In their analysis, HdL created various models to explore changing from an employeebased tax structure to what is called a gross receipt-based tax structure. The gross receipt-based tax structure appears to be the industry standard used by most cities in our region and in the State of California. Establishing tax rates based on gross receipts will achieve greater equity where smaller businesses pay less, and larger businesses pay more.
During tonight’s City Council meeting, a presentation will be provided that will show a proposed model that changes the City’s employee-based tax structure to a gross-receipt tax structure. This proposed model results in more than 75% of small businesses paying a lower tax than what they are currently paying. On average, it will reduce the charges by approximately $107 per business. The reduction in the total tax assessed on small businesses would be compensated for by large businesses within the City. Although, it is not our focus to generate more revenues, the proposed model would inevitably generate additional revenues to the City because the larger businesses would pay a higher business license tax due to their larger gross receipts. It is important to note that larger businesses will likely notice the increase in the first year when the transition from Agenda Report March 26, 2024
ANALYSIS AND MODERNIZATION OF THE BUSINESS LICENSE TAX Page 3 one structure to another occurs. However, in future years, the rate will fluctuate (up or down) only as their gross receipts rise and fall and will result in the long-term equity that we are seeking when modernizing this tax structure.
Request for Direction
State law requires that any changes to a tax be presented to the voters for approval. At this time, staff seeks to obtain the City Council’s direction to further explore the modernization of the City’s business license tax ordinance.
If directed by the City Council to move forward, staff will proceed with hiring a consultant to conduct a poll that will gauge voter interest on whether there is support for the changes to the business license tax. Depending on the results of the poll, staff will return to the City Council at or before the July 9, 2024 City Council meeting, at which time, the City Council may approve by Resolution the placement of the proposed changes on the November 5, 2024 General Election ballot for the voter’s approval.

SUBJECT: GENERAL PLAN ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT – CALENDAR YEAR 2023
BACKGROUND
This item is the General Plan Annual Progress Report on the status of the Paramount General Plan as required by California Government Code Section 65400. The report summarizes the 2023 calendar year and anticipates the 2024 calendar year. California Government Code requires the planning agency of each jurisdiction in California to report annually to the legislative body (City Council), the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR), and the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) its progress in implementing the various elements of the General Plan.
All cities and counties in California are required to have in place a general plan, which serves as the comprehensive blueprint for the future and establishes goals to meet a particular vision. A general plan is a long-range planning document and generally looks 20 years into the future. The State requires all local general plans to consider land use, circulation, housing, noise, safety, conservation, and open space. Since Senate Bill (SB) 1000 of 2016 was signed into law, many jurisdictions are required to include an environmental justice element.
The Paramount General Plan was first approved in 1969. The City Council adopted a comprehensive General Plan update in August 2007 with the following elements – Land Use Element, Economic Development Element, Housing Element, Transportation Element, Public Facilities Element, Health and Safety Element, and Resource Management Element. In March 2022, the City Council adopted the Environmental Justice Element.
Attached is the Annual Progress Report that demonstrates that the City has been successful in the continued implementation of numerous goals established in the General Plan. A number of important projects and programs were carried out in 2023, and together they continue to make Paramount an attractive and desirable city to live and work.
Agenda Report March 26, 2024
GENERAL PLAN ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT – CY 2023 Page 2
DISCUSSION
Provided below is a summary of the Annual Progress Report.
Land Use Element. The goals of the Land Use Element include improving the relationship between land and uses and preserving a high standard of living for residents. These goals were accomplished in 2023 through a number of efforts and programs. The Home Improvement Program, which the City Council expanded in 2022 to include mobile homes (manufactured homes), assisted a number of properties and households. The City Council adopted the North Paramount Gateway Specific Plan in 2023. The City Council also authorized the update to the Clearwater East Specific Plan, which will be renamed the Clearwater Specific Plan.
Economic Development Element. The purpose of the Economic Development Element is to provide a plan to improve the physical environment of the City through investing in the development of thriving business sectors, retaining existing quality businesses, and offering a high quality local economy for residents. The Development Review Board helps improve the appearance of the City by ensuring that all private development projects adhere to high-quality design guidelines and expectations. Economic Development staff members continue to perform outreach to the business community to promote opportunities for a positive business climate. Staff partners with the Paramount Chamber of Commerce, Southeast Los Angeles County (SELACO) Workforce Development Board, and the Long Beach Small Business Development Center (SBDC) to achieve its economic development goals. Economic Development staff is also actively in contact with developers to identify underperforming and blighted sites for reuse and redevelopment.
Additionally, staff has targeted sectors of the retail economy that are underrepresented in the City and strategizes to attract these types of businesses into the community. A permanent outdoor dining program is underway, and designs for participating restaurants will be going out to bid shortly. Grant funds totaling $110,000 were distributed to small businesses that had been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Explore Paramount online platform continues.
Housing Element. The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) certified the 6th Cycle Paramount Housing Element in October 2022. The Housing Element identifies local housing needs and establishes measures to meet those needs.
The Housing Element Annual Progress Report fulfills statutory requirements to report certain housing information, including progress in certain rezoning activities, actions taken toward completion of housing element programs, and local efforts to remove governmental constraints to the development of housing. This element must also demonstrate that a city’s share of the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) will be met through applications, entitlements, permits, and certificates of occupancy. The City’s RHNA allocation is 364 units during the eight-year 6th Cycle period from October 2021 to October 2029. During 2023, the Planning Division ministerially reviewed and approved 54 administrative applications for a total of 60 housing units. The Development Review Board approved an additional 11 units, including 10 single-family homes at 16261 Orizaba Avenue and one unit at 15708 Orizaba Avenue. The Building and Safety Division Agenda Report March 26, 2024
GENERAL PLAN ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT – CY 2023 Page 3
reviewed plans and issued permits for 35 housing units to begin construction. A total of 33 housing units were completed and received a certificate of occupancy.
Transportation Element. The purpose of the Transportation Element is to provide a safe and efficient circulation system for the City and to promote the safe and efficient movement of people and goods within the City. The Transportation Element describes methods to facilitate traffic improvements. In 2023, the City accomplished this goal through a number of projects, including arterial street resurfacing and annual sidewalk repair and replacement. A pilot traffic circle installed at the street intersection of Orizaba Avenue and Madison Street in 2022 to dissuade street takeovers and as a traffic calming measure to improve street safety and livability is under evaluation. Long Beach Transit and Metro provide in-town transit routes that connect to the region. The Elderly Nutrition Program and Dial-A-Ride bus transit services are an on-demand taxi service through a contract with Administrative Services Cooperative/Fiesta Taxi. GoGo Grandparent is a rideshare service for seniors traveling to medical offices and the Paramount Senior Center. City bus transit services to local area colleges are provided through a transit access pass contract with Long Beach Transit. The City continues operation of the Medical Taxi program through a contract with Administrative Services Cooperative/Fiesta Taxi. Additional bicycle infrastructure was installed with bicycle racks required by the Planning Commission and Development Review Board as conditions of approval for conditional use permits and development review applications.
Public Facilities Element. The Public Facilities Element looks at the future needs for water, sewage disposal, waste management, and schools. During the last year, the goals of this element were carried out through the installation of water services and fire hydrants at various locations throughout the City, continued progress with Well 16 on Garfield Avenue, the continued assessment of the vacant property at 16247 Vermont Avenue for public water infrastructure, and the purchase and installation of catch basin connector pipe screens. Work continues on the Spane Park Stormwater Capture Project, which is a stormwater capture and filtration facility.
Health and Safety Element. The Health and Safety Element establishes preparation for disasters, provides for police and fire services, and ensures safe construction. During 2023, the City continued to provide a high level of police services (through the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department) in addition to other public safety functions – code enforcement, animal control, and emergency preparedness. The Building and Safety Division of the Planning Department continued providing exemplary inspection and permitting services in a prompt and professional manner to ensure the safety and livability of buildings. The City continued air monitoring responsibilities following the 2021 decision by the South Coast Air Quality Management District to discontinue air sampling and testing of hexavalent chromium. The City Council adopted an update to the Health and Safety Element on March 1, 2022.
Agenda Report March 26, 2024
GENERAL PLAN ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT – CY 2023 Page 4
Resource Management Element. The Resource Management Element of the General Plan examines the preservation of existing parks, the provision of new open space, and recreational and community opportunities for the Paramount community. These goals were carried out in 2023 with numerous citywide programs and improvements including the following – support of the Friday Night Market program, holiday events, and various other community events. City staff continued to participate in efforts to revitalize the Los Angeles River, and design work continues with grants from the California Transportation Commission and the San Gabriel and Lower Los Angeles Rivers and Mountains Conservancy (RMC) on the extension of the separated bicycle path along the West Santa Ana Branch corridor. Similarly, the City was awarded a grant through the Port of Long Beach and funds through Assembly Speaker Rendon’s office to create a community orchard at Dills Park, which is adjacent to the Los Angeles River.
Environmental Justice Element. The City Council adopted the Environmental Justice Element on March 1, 2022 in accordance with SB 1000. This element addresses land use and equity issues throughout the City and includes goals and policies to reduce exposure to environmental hazards and improve social well-being. In 2023, the City continued air quality monitoring and posting the results to the Paramount Environment website. To further this effort, the City applied for and was awarded a grant from the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency to fund two years of air monitoring. Businesses with trucking have been required to install signs prohibiting truck idling. Active recreation programming was enhanced with a variety of team and individual activities such as volleyball, yoga, and fitness training. Additionally, the City continues to work on the implementation of its Climate Action Plan (CAP) which was adopted in 2021. Work toward CAP strategies include a partnership with TreePeople which through a Cal Fire grant developed an Urban Forest Management Plan (UFMP) with a strong community outreach component. The UFMP will also help the City grow its urban canopy and maintain its status as a Tree City USA. A composting education program, which supports the State’s requirement to reduce organic waste in landfills, continued at the community garden at Cortland Avenue. A program to assist the installation of solar panels on residential rooftops by funding roof repair and reconstruction began in 2023, and a $1 million grant from Congresswoman Barragan in 2024 will substantially expand the program. Finally, permitting for electric vehicle charging stations at Paramount Park and Progress Park is underway.
FISCAL IMPACT

PLANNING DEPARTMENT
March 26, 2024
DATE OF THE ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT
The Paramount City Council review date of the General Plan Annual Progress Report is March 26, 2024.
PURPOSE OF THE ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT (APR)
Compliance with State law (Section 65400 of the California Government Code) requires the City of Paramount to file a report each year addressing the status and progress toward goals and objectives of the Paramount General Plan. City staff will provide the Annual Progress Report to the City Council, the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR), and the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).
The Annual Progress Report provides a means to monitor the General Plan and determine if changes need to be made in the plan or its implementation. This report addresses calendar year 2023.
PURPOSE OF THE GENERAL PLAN
The General Plan serves two primary functions. The General Plan provides information and states the community’s goals, objectives, policies, and implementation measures – the means of achieving the goals and objectives. The General Plan is a public document and is available for all to read and use as needed. Copies are available for review at the Paramount Library and in the Planning Department at City Hall. Additionally, a downloadable digital copy is available on the official City website at the following location:
https://www.paramountcity.com/government/planning-department/planningdivision/general-plan City of Paramount March 26, 2024
General Plan Annual Progress Report – Calendar Year 2023 Page 2 The General Plan contains separate elements concerning land use, economic development, housing, transportation/circulation, public facilities, health and safety, resource management, and environmental justice. The General Plan was most recently comprehensively updated in 2007. On March 1, 2022, the City Council approved a new element – environmental justice – that was not in previous versions of the plan. Also on March 1, 2022, the City Council adopted a revised Health and Safety Element and replaced the 5th Cycle Housing Element (October 2013 to October 2021) with the 6th Cycle Housing Element (October 2021 to October 2029).
As an informational document, the General Plan describes existing conditions, makes projections, and establishes a vision for the community’s future. The General Plan provides the public with valuable details about the City and the direction that it seeks to move. In a community where change can be accentuated by rapid growth, there is a need to look ahead and determine the effect of change on the physical, social, and economic structure of the community.
As a policy document, the General Plan establishes guidelines for decisionmakers. Using these guidelines, the City Council, Planning Commission, other organizations, and City staff can take a series of steps toward achieving the larger goals of the City. The development decisions of the City are focused through implementation programs contained in the General Plan.
GENERAL PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
The General Plan carries a sizable weight in the planning and development processes.
Zoning and subdivisions are two of the primary implementation programs of the General Plan. State law requires, and the California courts have confirmed, that a jurisdiction’s general plan and zoning must be consistent with each other. Additionally, the State Subdivision Map Act requires decisionmakers to make findings of consistency with the General Plan before approving any subdivision of land. The Capital Improvements Program (CIP), specific plans, and developer fees are other means to implement the General Plan. Primary responsibility for the Paramount General Plan lies with the Planning Department. The duties of the two Planning Department divisions are noted in the next two sections.
Planning Department – Building and Safety Division
The Building and Safety Division of the Planning Department is responsible for administration and enforcement of State and local codes, ordinances, and regulations regarding the construction, alteration, maintenance, and use of privately-owned structures, appurtenances, and land. These regulations include the Building, Residential, Green Building Standards, Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing codes.
City of Paramount March 26, 2024
General Plan Annual Progress Report – Calendar Year 2023 Page 3 The Building and Safety Division issues building permits and provides information to contractors, architects/designers, and the general public on building-related issues. The Building and Safety Division provides plan check services through a contract with Scott Fazekas and Associates, Inc. Plan check engineers confirm structural safety, energy conservation, green technology, fire and life safety, accessibility, and appropriate plumbing, electrical, and mechanical systems. Building permit technicians employed and contracted by the City issue permits. Certified building inspectors who are full-time City employees conduct field inspections. The building inspectors issue correction notices or final approval in accordance with the associated codes. In 2023, building inspectors completed 3,331 inspections, and the Building and Safety Division issued 841 permits.
Planning Department – Planning Division
The Planning Division of the Planning Department administers the City’s current and longrange planning programs, monitors relevant Los Angeles County, State, and federal legislation, surveys current land use, and updates the City Zoning Ordinance and General Plan. This Division provides staff support to the Planning Commission, Development Review Board, and Economic Development Board.
In 2023, the Planning Division reviewed site plans and proposed developments to ensure compliance with zoning and design requirements. Additionally, the Planning Division processed 86 administrative actions (formal administrative reviews including home additions, accessory dwelling units or ADUs, and mobile food vending vehicles), 25 conditional use permits, 15 development review applications, three zone changes, one General Plan amendment, three zoning ordinance text amendments, and one tentative tract map.
The Planning Division also manages the Home Improvement Program and Commercial Rehabilitation Program. The Home Improvement Program (previously known as the Residential Rehabilitation Program) provides grants from federal HOME funds to low-tomoderate income households for home improvements. The Home Improvement Program solely focused on single-family home assistance from the inception of the program in 1982 until the City Council approved the expansion of the program to include mobile homes (manufactured homes) on a fixed foundation in 2022. Three single-family residential projects were completed in 2023. Four projects began construction – two at Golden State Mobile Home Park, one at Cherryfield Village Mobile Home Park, and one single-family home at Calle Las Brisas.

1. Land Use Element
The goals of this element include improving the relationship between land and uses; improving the identity of the City through the creation of urban spaces and distinctive City entry points; improving the unity and identity of residential neighborhoods, and preserving a high quality of life. The following programs were implemented to achieve these goals during 2023:
• Zone Change requests. The City processed two zone changes. The Zoning Map changed from C-3 (General Commercial) to PD-PS (Planned Development with Performance Standards) at 16261 Orizaba Avenue to allow the construction of 10 single-family homes on a vacant lot. The second Zone Map change was from R-2 (Medium Density Residential) to PD-PS at 16305 Hunsaker Avenue to allow the disposition of the property to a nonprofit affordable housing developer and the subdivision of the property into parcels for the construction of one single-family home on each resulting property for the future sale to income-qualifying households.
• Home Improvement Program. This program continued with the broader goal of protecting existing residential neighborhoods and preventing blight. • Zoning Ordinance Text Amendments. Staff prepared three amendments to the Zoning Ordinance (Title 17 of the Paramount Municipal Code). The amendments include establishing provisions of Senate Bill (SB) 9 regarding urban lot splits and two-unit residential developments on properties in the R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zone; incorporating North Paramount Gateway Specific Plan into the Zoning Ordinance/Municipal Code; and revising regulations regarding development review application notifications 2024 Programs:
• General Plan Amendments and Zone Change requests. The Planning Commission and City Council will process applications to amend the land use and zoning maps as required by State law to bring the current zoning map into conformity with the Land Use Element of the General Plan. The Clearwater Specific Plan is underway, which will revise the Clearwater East Specific Plan.
The City Council will consider a request to rezone residential properties on Vermont Avenue from M-1 (Light Manufacturing) to R-M (Multiple-Family Residential).
• Home Improvement Program. The protection of existing residential neighborhoods by preventing blight and improving the physical appearance of these neighborhoods will continue through this program, which now includes mobile homes (manufactured homes).
City of Paramount March 26, 2024
General Plan Annual Progress Report – Calendar Year 2023 Page 7 • Identification signs. The Public Works Department continues installation of City of Paramount identification signs. Park signs will be replaced to match the gateway design theme.
• Commercial areas. The City of Paramount will continue to preserve and promote the improvement of the existing commercial areas, including those districts located along Paramount Boulevard and Alondra Boulevard. • Pedestrian linkages. The City will continue to provide safe, convenient pedestrian linkages across and along streets containing commercial centers and uses.
• Open space. The City will continue to maintain, and where possible, expand its open space resources. A Parks Master Plan is underway.

2. Economic Development Element
The goals of this element include the use of design guidelines to improve the physical environment; the removal of blight; the improvement of the City’s infrastructure; and the attraction of sales tax-generating businesses. The following programs were implemented to meet the goals of this element during the 2023 period:
• Design review. Continued to utilize design review to improve the physical environment of the City.

8. Housing Element
In summary, the City issued permits to construct 35 housing units in 2023. A total of 33 housing units were completed and received a certificate of occupancy. The Planning Division ministerially reviewed and approved 54 administrative applications in 2023 for a total of 60 housing units. The Development Review Board approved an additional 11 units, including 10 single-family homes at 16261 Orizaba Avenue and a rear, detached unit at 15708 Orizaba Avenue.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65400, the City Council is required to prepare an Annual Housing Element Progress Report on the status and progress in implementing the Paramount Housing Element using tables and definitions adopted by the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The tables relevant to Paramount in 2023 are included as “Attachment 1” with the exception of Table D, which is included below in the body of this report.
Additionally, the Housing Successor Annual Report (Report) regarding the Low and Moderate Income Hosing Asset Fund (LMIHAF) has been prepared pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Section 34176.1(f). This Report sets forth certain details of the Paramount Housing Successor activities during the 2023 fiscal year.
The purpose of this Report is to annually provide the governing body of the Housing Successor a report on the housing assets and activities of the Housing Successor under Part 1.85, Division 24 of the California Health and Safety Code, in particular Sections 34176 and 34176.1 (Dissolution Law). The Report is attached as “Attachment 2”.
The goal of the Housing Element is to identify local housing needs and to implement measures to meet those needs. Another goal of the Housing Element is to implement a community’s share of the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA). In the State of California, each association of governments is required to generate housing needs numbers for their constituent jurisdictions. The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), which is the designated Association of Governments for most Southern California counties, determined that the City of Paramount needs to produce 364 new housing units during the eight-year 6th Cycle period from October 2021 to October 2029.

The City is progressing toward a further update to the Clearwater Specific Plan Area, which is the new name for the Clearwater East Specific Plan. This is the zoning document that encompasses the 68-acre area south of Rosecrans Avenue, west of Paramount Boulevard, north of Somerset Boulevard, and east of the Union Pacific Railroad. The City Council adopted the Clearwater East Specific Plan in 1987 and updated it in 2019 to incorporate housing uses with the existing allowed swap meet, retail/commercial, office, and light manufacturing uses. In 2023 the City Council adopted the North Paramount Gateway Specific Plan, which encompasses City of Paramount March 26, 2024
General Plan Annual Progress Report – Calendar Year 2023 Page 28 neighborhoods on the east and west of Paramount Boulevard, north of Rosecrans Avenue and south of the 105-freeway.
