Assess how the jurisdiction’s use of funds, particularly CDBG, addresses the priorities and specific objectives identified in the plan, giving special attention to the highest priority activities identified.
The City's use of funds is based on several factors including, but not limited to, priority needs, Consolidated and Action Plan Objectives, and available financial resources. Through various meetings with community stakeholders, residents, and non -profit a gencies, the City works to identify high -priority community development and housing needs. Subsequently, annual funding may be limited, and addressing specific objectives with high-priority needs is given special attention by the City Council. The City Council assesses the highest needs, available resources, and the particular objectives to be achieved and allocates funding to agencies that have submitted proposals that identify the goals and objectives
City of Pomona FY 2025-26 CAPER
FY 2025-26 CAPER
outlined in the City's Consolidated Plan.
Technical assistance workshops are held for agencies wishing to submit proposals to ensure they understand the priorities and objectives outlined in the City's Consolidated Plan and those with high-priority needs.
Overall, the approved projects and programs in the FY 2025-26 Annual Action Plan assisted as many participants as possible with limited resources available. The City contributed the maximum allowable for CDBG Public Services (15 percent of the annual allocation) and met most of its public service goals.
As a reminder, the City is dedicated to the long -term success of our projects. Results will vary yearly as many of the projects are implemented over multiple years. The outcomes for projects and programs that are underway will be included in the FY 2025 -26 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER).

Narrative
CDBG funds are expended in each district in accordance with Council priorities. The Citywide and Mayor’s portions are spent without regard for specific geographic areas, but within low to moderate-income areas. Code Enforcement activities are undertaken in adopted target areas.
HOME and ESG funds are expended without regard for geographical boundaries.
Leveraging
Explain how federal funds leveraged additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements were satisfied, as well as how any publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that were us ed to address the needs identified in the plan.
The City of Pomona leveraged Federal Resources with other public and private resources to assist the City in reaching its community development goals identified in the FY 2025 -26 Action Plan. This allows the City to reinforce coordination of activities between and among agencies and to leverage additional resources.
The City’s public and private funding sources include, but are not limited to, the following:
• CalHOME Grant
• CalHome Reuse Funds
• General Funds
• Healthy Homes Production Grant
• Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA)
• State Gas Tax Revenue Fund
• Lead Hazard Control and Healthy Homes Grant
• Older Adult Home Modification Grant
• Continuum of Care
• Measure A
City of Pomona FY 2025-26 CAPER
FY 2025-26 CAPER
The CDBG program does not require matching funds but was leveraged by the aforementioned funding sources. The HOME program did not require matching funds due to a 100% reduction determination granted by HUD. Regarding ESG, the 100% match requirement was sa tisfied by subrecipient agencies through various private and public funding sources (refer to the Homeless Section for details). No publicly owned land or property within the City’s jurisdiction was utilized to address the needs identified in this plan.

“WORST-CASE NEEDS”: Worst case housing needs are defined as low -income renter households who pay more than half their income for rent, live in seriously substandard housing or have been involuntarily displaced. The City of Pomona served the worst -case needs in FY 2025 -26 by providing the following:
MORE THAN 50% OF RENT: The Housing Choice Voucher rental assistance Program provided housing payment assistance to those qualifying households who paid more than 50% of their income for housing. CDBG and ESG funds were utilized through various agencies to provide assistance with food and other support services.
SUBSTANDARD HOUSING: The Housing Choice Voucher rental assistance program and various residential rehabilitation programs ensured that substandard housing met HQS Standards, State Standards and/or local rehabilitation standards for decent, safe and sanitary housing.
INVOLUNTARILY DISPLACED: During the reporting period, there was no voluntary or involuntary displacement through the City’s Federal Entitlement Programs.
It should be noted that many other service providers within the City who do not receive Federal Entitlement Funds provide assistance to households with high rent burdens, living in substandard conditions (including homeless) or who have been involuntarily displaced.

CR-25 - Homeless and Other Special Needs 91.220(d, e); 91.320(d, e); 91.520(c) Evaluate the jurisdiction’s progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending homelessness through:
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
Outreach and Assessment is provided through the Pomona Police Department’s Outreach Team made up of two police officers and two clinicians from the Department of Mental Health. This team conducts outreach and provides adults experiencing homelessness refer rals to the City’s Hope for Home shelter. The Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funds beds at Hope for Home for the outreach team to refer outreached individuals to. Several of the local non -profits also have outreach teams specific to the field of endeavor (mental health, substance abuse, HIV/AIDS, etc.) and can refer to the beds funded by state or local sources.
Other Federal Resources
Housing Choice Voucher Program (Formerly known as Section 8 Rental Assistance) The Pomona Housing Authority, through its oversight of the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) rental assistance program, is entitled to administer a maximum of 1,199 housing choice vouchers, including Project Based vouchers. These vouchers provide housing assist ance to approximately 2,414 residents of Pomona. Very low -income families choose and lease safe, decent, and affordable privately -owned rental housing, including single - family homes, townhouses, and apartments.
Healthy Homes Production Grant (HHPG)
In FY 2025-2026 the Healthy Homes Production Grant successfully improved the health and safety conditions of participating households by addressing multiple housing -related hazards. Through coordinated outreach, assessments, healthy homes interventions, an d resident education, the program achieved its objectives of reducing health risks and creating stronger and safer living environments for low -income families. A total of $1,990,513 of the $2,000,000 awarded funds were expended.
The city met grant program requirements and community needs on several levels. First, the community's immediate needs were met through expanded outreach to increase awareness of the various housing hazards. Second, direct educational activities provided information to families about the serious health concerns of environmental hazards for household members including pregnant women. Information sharing has been enhanced between partners and other community-based organizations. Third, healthy home intervention project sites have made a positive, visible difference within some of Pomona's most impacted neighborhoods with multiple high-risk factors.
City of Pomona FY 2025-26 CAPER
FY 2025-26 CAPER
The benefits of the Healthy Homes Intervention Program produced significant benefits for the City of Pomona and its residents, including:
• Improved Housing Quality: A total of 172 health y units were added to Pomona's aged housing stock. The units received healthy homes interventions that addressed housing - related health and safety hazards, resulting in safer and healthier living environments for residents.
• Neighborhood Revitalization: The program stimulated revitalization in low -income neighborhoods by encouraging participation from property owners. These improvements increased the value of homes, restored substandard housing and contributed to the overall enhancement of neighborhood conditions
Older Adult Home Modification Program (OAHMP)
The Older Adult Home Modification Program helps low -income seniors and individuals with disabilities live independently. It funds assessments by occupational therapists and installs functional modifications to prevent falls, improve mobility, and reduce the need to relocate to assisted care facilities. Twenty-four (24) families were assisted totaling $139,155.50.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
The City of Pomona’s Hope for Home Homeless Services Center (H4H) is funded through the City with ESG Rapid Unsheltered Survivor Housing (RUSH) funds as well as local Measure A and State Mental Health Services Act (MHSA). The City also funded the Family St abilization Hub, a day shelter serving families and individuals experiencing homelessness connecting eligible participants to rapid rehousing programs. In FY 2025 -26 the City funded two (2) emergency shelters. All programs administered by the City are required to assist clients in developing individual housing stability and transition plans before exiting the program.
Helping low -income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such a s health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs
In order to prevent families and individuals from falling into homelessness, the City of Pomona administers the HOME Tenant-Based Rental Assistance program to assist residents with rental arrears, security deposit and future rent. The City also connects pe ople in need of assistance to the County of Los Angeles 2 -1-1 to access homeless prevention programs. In FY 2025-26, the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG) awarded funds to God’s Pantry
City of Pomona FY 2025-26 CAPER
FY 2025-26 CAPER
to operate a Renter Protection and Homelessness Prevention (RPHP) program to help stabilize eligible families and individuals by paying rental arrears caused by hardships and assist in remaining in their unit.
Helping Homeless Persons Transition to permanent Housing
In keeping with best practices and guidance from HUD, the City has moved from the traditional approach to homelessness to a low barrier, trauma informed care approach. To the greatest extent possible, homeless persons are quickly placed into permanent housing and are then assisted with the supportive services needed to support the transition in place. Supportive services include, but are not limited to case management, access to life skills groups, financial literacy c lasses, and linkages to mental health services, health care, and substance use remediation. Social opportunities are offered which help people experiencing homelessness be placed in permanent housing to develop new social structures that support a stable lifestyle.
Pomona’s CoC funded programs practice low barrier access to housing by educating housing and service providers on this practice through presentations at local coalition meetings. A key practice for low barrier housing enrollment is active participation in the Los Angeles County Coordinated Entry System (CES).
To help people experiencing homelessness transition to permanent housing, the Pomona Police Department’s Outreach team provides the following services to adults experiencing homelessness: outreach assessments, linkages to necessary housing resources, inter im housing referrals, connect people to security deposit and utility assistance, food and furniture assistance and transportation assistance.
Once outreached and connected to a bed at Hope for Home, case managers connect eligible participants to the CoC-Rapid Re-housing Operation Porchlight Program that assists families and individuals get connected to permanent housing. The programs funding pro vides assistance with security deposits, short to medium term rental assistance, and case management with monthly check-ins to ensure participants are working towards self-sufficiency.
City of Pomona FY 2025-26 CAPER
FY 2025-26 CAPER
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 peri od 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
Chronically homeless is a person, or family, who has been living in a place not meant for human habitation, a safe haven, or emergency shelter continuously for at least one year or on at least four separate occasions in the last three years. Such persons or families must also be diagnosed with a specific disabling condition. These combined factors often lead to isolation and a survival mentality. Moving people from chronic homelessness to living in and maintaining housing requires multi -level solutions. In addition to suitable, acceptable and affordable housing, on - going supportive services are required to help the individual learn to live in the mainstream of society, to develop goals, and a budget addressing disabling conditions, and often modify behaviors developed for survival on the streets. Addressing chronic homelessness requires consistent and patient outreach.
In addition to providing suitable, acceptable and affordable housing, ongoing supportive services are encouraged to help the individual learn to live in housing and as a part of mainstream society.
Pomona programs provide assistance to individuals and families in developing goals, budgeting, identifying and addressing unique challenges and barriers for full integration. Program participants are linked to services addressing disabling condition(s). Ongoing case management supports prog ram participants and helps them to identify and modify behaviors that were developed for survival on the street.
Addressing comprehensive layered solutions to chronic homelessness, the City has developed and maintains a complete Continuum of Care, from outreach and assessment to permanent affordable housing. The Pomona Homeless Street Outreach Team known as the Quality of Life Unit (QoL) is comprised of two teams who work in conjunction to connect homeless individuals to various resources to assist them in becoming permanently housed. The QoL is made up of the Police Department’s Homeless Encampment Action Response Team (HEART) , which includes City facilities staff and uniformed officers, and the Mental Health Evaluation Unit (MHU).
The City identified the need to create QoL unit due to the influx of homeless encampments that were being established throughout the City. The City was utilizing existing staff to cleanup up encampments which were established in designated fire severity areas where drought conditions exist. This was redirecting valuable resources and services away from the day -to-day tasks. The QoL team works to he lp provide a multi -tier approach to help the unhoused in our community while extending services and referrals to the City’s Hope for Home Homeless Services Center (H4H). In addition to intensive services and case management, the City participates in the LA County Homeless Family Solutions System and Youth Coordinated Entry System (CES).
City of Pomona FY 2025-26 CAPER
FY 2025-26 CAPER
Additionally, the City, ESG and COC Subrecipients participate in the CES system planning and case management providing referrals to these systems to shorten the time that homelessness is experienced while practicing shelter diversion. Moreover, the City of Pomona’s Homeless Assistance programs help residents finding themselves facing homelessness for the first time to quickly identify and contact appropriate lines of assistance. The direct line for assistance is provided in City Hall. The City of Pomona produces and provides homeless and homeless prevention information including contacts on the City of Pomona and the Pomona Continuum of Care Coalition webpages. The City also produces information cards and brochures which are distributed within City Hall, during active outreach, and at service provider offices including, but not limited to, the Department of Public Social Services and the Department of Public Health offices.

To ensure the effective delivery of services, the City continuously stream lines its processes and adapts to the evolving needs of low - to moderate -income residents. This dynamic approach ensures that services remain responsive, and the City will initiate amendments or substantial amendments to the Consolidated Plan, as necessary, to reflect changing program demands.
The City maintains ongoing coordination with non -profit providers, community and faith -based organizations, public institutions, and internal City departments throughout the development and implementation of the Consolidated Plan and the Annual Action Plan.
Gaps in Service Delivery
The following are potential gaps in the institutional structure that were approached during the reporting period:
• Identify need for housing resources available to individuals and households whose needs may not be met within the current program framework;
• Because of the high cost of housing production and construction, look for additional ways to develop units;
• Look at the needs of the senior population and plan for future services; • Look at the needs of youth and family populations and plan for future programs and services that coincide with the City of Pomona Youth and Family Master Plan.
Integrated approach/vision and Regional Connections the City of Pomona has integrated several required programs and plans with its Consolidated Action Plan to ensure that all aspects of City government and related agencies (e.g., non-profit providers, private businesses and others) work together on a uniform vision for the benefit of the residents of the City of Pomona. Programs and activities funded reflect goals and objectives that are contained in these plans. Some of these plans and programs are as foll ows: the Housing Element, Youth and Family Master Plan, Capital Improvement Plans and others. These plans have been created with input from the public, other City departments and divisions, the Policy of Los Angeles, LAHSA and other agencies and non -

CR-40 - Monitoring 91.220 and 91.230
Describe the standards and procedures used to monitor activities carried out in furtherance of the plan and used to ensure long-term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements The City will use various types of monitoring standards to ensure compliance with Federal regulations governing the use of CDBG funds. Monitoring procedures include: monthly desk audits, review of monthly/quarterly performance reports, review of monthly/qu arterly financial billing, and on -site inspections. Performance of planned projects and activities of these funds are monitored depending on type of program and reporting requirements. Monitoring is viewed as a way to identify deficiencies and promote corrections in order to improve performance. The actual activity of monitoring helps promote quality performance, as well as identify any need for further technical assistance.
The following is a description of the types of monitoring performed by staff:
• Performance Monitoring
• Financial Monitoring
• Davis-Bacon Compliance
• Section 3 Compliance
• Environmental Review Compliance
Monitoring includes: desk reviews, on-site visits, interviews, telephone contacts, and reports. The Subrecipient Agreement is used to measure funded agency compliance.
The City operates in accordance with the monitoring plan developed for CDBG and HOME Programs, including an annual single audit in conformance with CFR Part 200. The Project Monitors also monitor all activity of the program on a monthly basis, while financial management is monitored jointly by the Project Monitor, Supervisor, and the City's fiscal department.
A. Performance Monitoring Reporting/Tracking Systems : Performance is tracked and reported as stated above. The labor compliance representative review reports. Any discrepancies are addressed with the appropriate entities. Records on performance are kept in the project file.
Accuracy of data is confirmed by site visits and monitoring.
B. Financial Monitoring: All project costs are paid on a reimbursement basis, rather than paid in advance. A request for reimbursement must have appropriate documentation attached to verify all expenditures. A current report of program activities must also be attached to the draw down request.
The combination of data from the request and the program activities report provides the data necessary to input data into the IDIS system. Collecting this data during the program year is very helpful in compiling reports. By requiring documentation associa ted with reimbursement, the City's Neighborhood Services Department – Housing and Housing Stabilization Divisions and
City of Pomona FY 2025-26 CAPER
FY 2025-26 CAPER
Finance Department are able to closely monitor program requirements and ensure program goals are being met.
C. Davis-Bacon Compliance Monitoring : Davis-Bacon regulations require contractors and subcontractors to pay a certain wage to employees in various labor classifications. These regulations are a requirement of CDBG and HOME Program Subgrantee agreements. All applicable CDBG and HOME Program projects are monitored regarding their conformance with Davis-Bacon requirements. The lead person in Community Services or Public Works checks the state board to ensure contractors selected are licensed. The debarred list fr om HUD Housing Page is also used.
Once the contractor is selected, the contractor signs a contract. The City representative conducts a preconstruction conference, reviews contractor and subcontractor payrolls, and makes site visits and interviews contractor/subcontractor employees. Interview forms are compared with appropriate payrolls to ensure hours and pay is correct. All paperwork requirements are kept by the City. Site visits give staff the visual p erspective of project progress and confirm reported performance and supplement written reports. Site visits are made to see how services are delivered to clients, provide technical assistance, and inspect progress of construction projects.
D. Environmental Review Compliance : Each project that is budgeted is first reviewed for compliance with the National Environmental Protection Agency regulations (NEPA). California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) regulations may also apply. Projects that are community service in nature are exempt from NEPA. Projects that require further investigation are researched using input from Environmental Regulatory Agencies. For projects that fall in this category, a description of the project is sent to the State Office of Historic Preservation and to other applicable regulatory agencies for consultation. Once required consultations have been completed and any mitigation measures identified, the City prepares the appropriate paperwork, including the Statutory Worksheet and publishes a combined NOI/RROF and/ or a finding regarding impacts (if the project is an Environmental Assessment [EA]). Once environmental clearance has been obtained, the project can move forward to City Council and/ or bid, etc., as appropriate. The manager monitors all Environmental Reviews.
E. Other monitoring Standards Compliance with Housing Codes/ Property Standards: In order to ensure compliance with Housing Codes/ Property Standards and with local housing codes, the City takes the following actions:
• Incorporates local housing codes in written rehabilitation standards. • Inspects work write-ups to ensure specifications meets code. • Performs on -site property inspections to ensure property standards and local housing codes are actually met.
• Maintains an inspection checklist in project files.
City of Pomona FY 2025-26 CAPER
FY 2025-26 CAPER
• The City will implement the following actions as a part of its policy and procedures to ensure timeless expenditure of CDBG funds:
1. Monthly review of project expenditure rates.
2. Includes provisions in annual contracts and MOUs to subrecipients reiterating Federal requirements for use of CDBG funds, including timely expenditure of funds.
3. Group infrastructure projects together for design and bidding and design based on similar work, but tracked individually during the construction phase of status, compliance with labor standards and expenditures.
4. Evaluate infrastructure projects on a quarterly basis for status/progress and completion; CDBG funds will be transferred from stalled or slow -moving projects, subject to council approval, to projects that are progressing toward construction.
Describe the efforts to provide citizens with reasonable notice and an opportunity to comment on performance reports.
