Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: City and County of Sacramento (City and County) and has served as the federal housing and community development staffing entity pursuant to a joint powers agreement between the City and County and its housing authorities. HUD requires the submission of a Consolidated Plan every five years and a One-Year Action Plan (Action Plan) annually for the CDBG, HOME, ESG, and HOPWA grant programs.

This report recommends the approval of the 2026 Action Plan and amendments to prior years’ Action Plans, and requests authorization to submit the plan to HUD.

The Action Plan identifies specific activities, projects, and other actions for federally funded programs for the 2026 calendar year that align with the priorities identified in the Consolidated Plan. The Consolidated Plan is a five-year planning document that identifies the area’s housing, public service, and community development needs and describes a long-term strategy to meet those needs. Each year, the estimated entitlement amount is based on actuals received from the previous year. In 2025, HOME award amounts decreased, while CDBG, ESG, and HOPWA awards increased from the previous year. The Action Plan budget was developed on the assumption that the 2026 federal budget will be constant at 2025 funding levels.

Federal Funding
Entitlement Estimate 2025 Actual 2025 Estimate 2026
CDBG $4,600,000 $4,638,977 $4,600,000
ESG $400,000 $401,117 $400,000
HOME $2,300,000 $2,197,828 $2,200,000
HOPWA $2,050,000 $2,120,108 $2,100,000

HOME $2,300,000 $2,197,828 $2,200,000
HOPWA $2,050,000 $2,120,108 $2,100,000
SHRA held public meetings beginning in March to receive input on the Action Plan from the public, the Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Commission (Commission), and the City Council. At the public meetings, SHRA staff reviewed the 2026 Action Plan, including CDBG objectives, eligibility requirements, 2026 entitlement estimates for CDBG, HOME, ESG, and HOPWA, estimated allocations by funding activity (Infrastructure, Housing, Public Service, and Planning and Administration), examples of previously funded projects, and the Action Plan preparation and adoption schedule.

Throughout the year, SHRA staff continued to work with City Staff and City Councilmembers to identify and review projects for funding in the Action Plan, specifically for the Infrastructure and Public Facilities CDBG funding. A draft list of projects was presented to the City Council on May 13, 2025, for review and comment.

The draft Action Plan was available for public review and comment for 30 days from September 1, 2025, through October 1, 2025. As required by HUD, the Commission held a noticed public meeting soliciting comments on the Action Plan on October 1, 2025.

Home Repair Program Guidelines
One of the programs recommended for funding in the 2026 Action Plan is SHRA’sHome Repair Program (HRP). The HRP receives annual allocations of CDBG funding to provide emergency home repair assistance to very low-income owner-occupants of single-family homes or mobile homes.

The program addresses urgent health and safety hazards, including immediate safety concerns, hazardous conditions, or violations of fire or health codes. To qualify, the owner must be income- qualified, and the property must be owner-occupied and in need of a repair that meets these criteria.

Currently, assistance is limited to a maximum of $5,000 per property and per client for eligible repairs. However, rising material and labor costs have made it increasingly difficult to complete necessary repairs within this cap. In addition, SHRA has experienced growing demand for accessibility-related modifications.

To address these challenges and to improve program accessibility, SHRA is requesting authorization to amend the HRP program guidelines as follows:
· Increase the maximum grant amount to $10,000 per property; · Expand eligible accessibility improvements, with documentation from a medical professional; · Modify the application timeline to allow greater flexibility. Currently, applications are accepted only during two periods: June 1 - August 31 and December 1 - February 28. SHRA is requesting the authority to extend or expand these application windows, up to and including year-round availability, as funding permits.

These changes will enhance the program’s responsiveness to community needs and ensure continued support for vulnerable homeowners. The updated HRP Guidelines are included as Exhibit B.

Policy Considerations: The proposed appropriation of funds for new and existing activities in the 2026 Action Plan is consistent with the goals and objectives outlined in the proposed 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan.

Economic Impacts: None.

Environmental Considerations: California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA): Pursuant to Cal.

Code Regs., tit. 14, section 15378 subds. (b)(2) and (5), the recommended actions are not considered a “project,” as they constitute administrative activities and policymaking of government entities that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. Alternatively, if a determination is made that the plans and policies do constitute a project subject to CEQA, the recommended actions are exempt pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, section 15061 (b)(3), as they do not have the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment.

National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA): Pursuant to 24 C.F.R. section 58.34(a)(1) and (3) (2025), the recommended actions are considered the development of plans and administrative and management activities exempt from NEPA review. With respect to the laws and authorities specified in section 58.6, the recommended actions do not involve activity that would require compliance with:
· 24 C.F.R. section 51.300-305;
· 16 U.S.C. section 3501 (Coastal Barrier Resources Act); or · 42 U.S.C. sections 4001-4128, 5154(a) (Flood Disaster Protection Act and National Flood Insurance Reform Act).

Activities identified in the Action Plan as public services, supportive services, tenant-based rental assistance, facility operations, and program administration have been reviewed pursuant to CEQA and NEPA and no further review is required for these activities. Environmental review under CEQA and NEPA, as applicable, for all new projects with the potential to significantly affect the environment will be completed prior to taking any choice-limiting action.

Sustainability: The proposed appropriation of funds for existing and new activities is consistent with the City’s Sustainability Master Plan’s Focus Area - Public Health and Nutrition by improving residents’ health. The Consolidated Plan serves as a five-year planning document to direct investments that seek to improve health, nutrition, and social and economic sustainability.

Commission/Committee Action: At its meeting of October 1, 2025, it is anticipated that the Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Commission will recommend approval of the attached

Page 4 of 5 ends

File ID: 2025-01607 10/7/2025
resolutions. In the event it fails to do so, Staff will advise the Council at the meeting.

Rationale for Recommendation: As a condition of receiving various federal grants provided through HUD, the regulations require the submittal of the Consolidated Plan once every five years and the annual submittal of the One-Year Action Plan describing proposed activities and expenditures that meet the goals and priorities of the City of Sacramento. In general, the purpose of the activities funded is to revitalize lower-income neighborhoods and to assist disadvantaged populations by providing adequate public facilities and services and generating affordable housing opportunities.

Newly funded capital improvement projects are scheduled to be implemented and completed within 18 months to comply with federal regulations governing the timely expenditure of funds in the current year.

Financial Considerations: The proposed allocations in the 2026 One-Year Action Plan are based on estimated revenues. Exhibit A includes details regarding the proposed program and project allocations.

Local Business Enterprise (LBE): Local Business Enterprise requirements do not apply to this report. Minority and Women’sBusiness Enterprise requirements and Section 3 considerations will be applied to all activities to the extent required by the federal funding and in accordance with SHRA’s Section 3 Economic Opportunity Plan.

Background

Since 1982, the Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency (SHRA) has managed and administered federal housing, public service, and community development funds on behalf of the City and County of Sacramento (City and County) and has served as the federal housing and community development staffing entity pursuant to an agree ment between the City and County and its housing authorities. SHRA administers four formula grants on behalf of the City: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA), and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG). The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires the submission of two documents as part of the formula grant programs. These documents include the Five-Year Consolidated Plan and the annual One-Year Action Plan, which are described below.

Consolidated Plan
A Consolidated Plan is required of any city, county, or state that receives federal block grant dollars for housing and community dev elopment funding from HUD. HUD consolidated the planning and application process of formula grant programs in 1995, with the purpose of coordinating program requirements and simplifying the process of requesting and obtaining federal funds. The consolidated planning process is intended to achieve the following:

 Promote citizen participation in the development of local priority needs benefiting low- and moderate-income persons.
 Develop a series of One -Year Action Plans that will be the basis for the assessment of performance.
 Consult with public and private agencies to identify needs and appropriate actions required to address their needs.

The Consolidated Plan identifies the Cit y’s housing, public service, and community development needs and describes a long -term strategy to meet those needs. The Consolidated Plan provides the vision, goals, and strategies for the allocation of these federal formula grant funds.

The Consolidated Plan’s go als and priorities for the Cit y are developed through an extensive community engagement process and consultation with public agencies in the City. To meet its community's needs, th e Consolidated Plan is guided by three overarching goals that are applied according to these needs. The three overarching goals are:

1) To provide decent housing by preserving the affordable housing stock, increasing the availability of affordable housing, reducing discriminatory barriers, increasing the supply of supportive housing for those with special needs, and transitioning homeless persons and families into housing.
2) To provide a suitable living environment through safer, more livable neighborhoods, greater integration of low - and moderate -income residents throughout Sacramento, increased housing opportunities, and reinvestment in deteriorating neighborhoods.

2 3) To expand economic opportunities through more jobs paying self-sufficient wages, greater homeownership opportunities, development activities that promote long - term community viability, and the empowerment of low - and moderate -income persons to achieve self-sufficiency.

The City Council adopted the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan on October 8, 2024.

The One -Year Action Plan, described below, details the s pecific activities the City of Sacramento and SHRA will undertake to achieve the objectives.

Action Plan
The One -Year Action Plan details the programs, activities, and budgets for the year beginning January 1 through December 31. The Plan describes the resources expected to be available in the coming program year from federal, nonfederal, and private sources.

It includes a description of the activities that will be undertaken to meet the specific objectives in the Consolidated Plan. These activities are designed to serve extremely low, low-, and moderate-income residents by funding programs and projects in the following categories: 1) Infrastructure and Public Improvements, 2) Affordable Housing Development, and 3) Public Services. The Action Plan also provides the City with a basis for assessing its progress in meeting the goals of the Consolidated Plan through the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Reports (CAPER).

The HUD Entitlement Grants covered by the Action Plan (CDBG, HOME, HOPWA, ESG) are described below:

CDBG Program
The CDBG program requires that each activity must meet one of three national objectives:
1) Benefit low and moderate-income persons using one of four subcategories: a) Low and Moderate Income (LMI), Area Benefit in a primarily residential census tract; b) LMI Clientele (homeless, seniors, etc.); c ) Housing for LMI residents; d) Jobs for LMI residents; 2) Prevention or elimination of slums or blighted areas; and 3) Urgent Need.

Additionally, the activity must also be eligible and generally include the following: public facility/infrastructure improvements; public services; housing development, preservation and homeownership; and planning and environmental studies.

HOME Program
The HOME Program empowers grantees to design and implement affordable housing strategies to respond to locally determined needs. Unlike CDBG, HOME funds can be used for construction of new housing. Additionally, HOME funds are also used for the rehabilitation of existing housing.

ESG program
ESG provides funds for various activities to address homelessness as authorized under the federal Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing (HEARTH) Act of 2009. ESG funds may be used for five pro gram components: street outreach, emergency shelter, homelessness prevention, rapid re -housing assistance, and administrative activities. Rapid re -housing services include housing search and placement, housing stability case management, direct short-term rental assistance, rental application fees, security/utility deposits, and first/last months’ rent.

3 HOPWA
HOPWA provides housing assistance and related supportive services to low -income persons living with HIV/AIDS and their families. These include, but are not limited to, the acquisition, rehabilitation, or new construction of housing units, costs for facility operations, rental assistance, and short -term payments to prevent homelessness.

Supportive services can include case management , substance abuse treatment, mental health treatment, nutritional services, job training and placement assistance, and assistance with daily living.

As a HOPWA recipient, SHRA is responsible for serving eligible individuals within the Eligible Metropolitan Statistical Area (EMSA), a metropolitan area with more than 500,000 people and more than 2,000 persons living with HIV or AIDS. The eligible area f or HOPWA funds allocated to the City includes Sacramento, Yolo, Placer, and El Dorado counties. SHRA works with sub-recipients to provide services to HOPWA-eligible clients.

In 202 6, the anticipated service providers include: 1) CARES Community Health (Sacramento), 2) Sunburst (Sacramento), 3) Volunteers of America (Sacramento), 4) Colonia San Martin (Sacramento), 5) Communicare (Yolo County), and 6) Sierra Foothills AIDS Foundation (El Dorado and Placer Counties). These organizations provide services, case management, and emergency shelter to individuals and families.

The Action Plan’s key components are outlined below:

Infrastructure and Public Facility Improvements
There is a continuing need in the Ci ty for infrastructure and public facility improvements to serve low- and moderate-income residents who reside within older neighborhoods that either have inadequate facilities or where existing facilities are suffering from heavy use or deferred maintenance, leading to disrepair. Capital improvement funding identified in the Action Plan strives for maximum leveraging opp ortunities in order to provide the greatest impact to residents. Supporting large infrastructure and public facility improvement projects benefiting low - and moderate-income areas is a key objective of the City’s CDBG Program. The Action Plan recognizes the limited federal, state, and local funding available for Projects, and strategically focuses funding on fewer, but larger projects in low - and moderate -income neighborhoods. The goal is to create a concentration of activity that generates strategic and vi sible impacts promoting positive community changes.

The infrastructure and public facility improvement project recommendations are selected through consultation with City staff and are based on the following criteria:

 Benefits to Low-Income Residents and Neighborhoods – Eligible projects must be located in or directly benefit Sacramento’s low-and moderate-income residents.

At least 51 percent of those residents in the project service area need to be at low- and moderate-income.
 Project Readiness – Projects must be able to expend the CDBG funds within twelve to eighteen months, or shortly thereafter. Project readiness is a consideration tracked by the federal government.
 Priority – To rate highly in this catego ry, the project must meet a Ci ty priority category, such as being listed in an approved project planning guide or meeting a Council or City Manager priority.

4  Leverage/Match for Grant Applications – Using CDBG as a match for grants increases the impact of these scarce funds. The federal government monitors this consideration.
 Availability of Other Funding Sources – While leverage is an important criterion, other Ci ty funds may not be available to pay for needed community priorities.

CDBG can provide a valuable resource when no other funds are ava ilable in low- income communities.
 Geographic Distribution – This criterion weighs how well eligible areas of the City are being served by CDBG. Examining the distribution by districts ensures funds are disbursed throughout eligible areas of the City.

Housing
The housing activities outlined in the Action Plan seek to support, increase, and improve the multi-family housing stock, fund minor and emergency repairs to existing single-family homes, and provide decent and affordable housing to low - and moderat e-income individuals.

To maximize fair housing choice, affordable housing rehabilitation and new construction are not limited to low- and moderate-income areas and can be developed where it is most appropriate. Guidelines for investing in affordable hou sing rehabilitation and new construction activities were approved by the City Council separately as part of SHRA’s Multi-family Lending and Mortgage Revenue Bond Policies.

Public Services
An overall priority for CDBG is to increase self -sufficiency and economic opportunity for low- and moderate-income residents and individuals with special needs so that they can achieve a reasonable standard of living. The priority in the Consolidated Plan for the utilization of public service funding is to support the provision of vital services to the City’s most vulnerable populations, such as providing meals to seniors.

SHRA is part of the Continuum of Care Advisory board and is committed to partnering with Sacramento Steps Forward (SSF), the lead agency for the Continuum of Care (CoC).

As such, SHRA continues to participate in discussions about the most effective ways to reach out to homeless individuals and assess their individual needs as part of ongoing coordination efforts. SHRA continues to work with City staff on the most strategic use of federal funding for homeless services, including CDBG and ESG to reflect and complement the broader commitments of the City to prevent and end homelessness.

Objectives to address homelessness include supporting the continua tion of the CoC homeless assistance system for individuals and families through the provision of emergency shelters, rapid re-housing/prevention services, permanent supportive housing services, and supportive services for low - and moderate-income individuals and those with special needs, including the homeless and persons living with HIV/AIDS.

As part of the Action Plan, CDBG and ESG funding is expected to continue for established programs, which include emergency shelters, rapid re-housing, and other actions related to homelessness prevention.

5 Fair Housing
SHRA, the City and County of Sacramento, and the Cities of Citrus Heights, Elk Grove, Rancho Cordova, and Folsom implement fair housing services through local partnerships.

The result is the Renter’s H elpline, which serves as a central intake point to provide counseling, dispute resolution, and fair housing services for Sacramento residents in a housing crisis or dispute. Access is thr ough the telephone and the internet. Other components include fair housing education and training for landlords, implicit bias training, and Investigation/Testing/Litigation.

Exhibit A
City of Sacramento
2026 One-Year Action Plan and Previous Years' Reprogramming In addition, a description of other actions to further the Consolidated Plan strategies is required by HUD as part of the One-Year Action Plan application.

These include the Public Housing Authority Administrative Plan, the Citizen Participation Plan, the Continuum of Care Plan, and Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing (AI). These documents, on file with the Agency Clerk, are incorporated into this staff report and the record by this reference.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires a consolidated planning process for the federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG); HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME); Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA); and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) programs. This process consolidates multiple grant application requirements into a single submission. The concept of the Consolidated Plan was developed to further HUD's statutory goals through a collaborative process involving the community to establish a unified vision for future community development actions.

Definitions:

Reprogrammed Funds are made available when an activity has been cancelled, completed with cost savings, or funds are being moved to ensure timely expenditure. CDBG funds may also include prior years' capital reserve funds.

Program Income are funds generated by a grant-supported activity (e.g., loan repayment, property sale, etc.).

The Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency (SHRA), as the direct recipient of HUD funding, assumes the responsibility for environmental review, decision-making, and actions under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). SHRA is also the lead agency for SHRA initiated projects under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Environmental review records are on file at SHRA.

The One-Year Action Plan, and amendments, are updates to the Consolidated Plan. A key component of the One-Year Action Plan is the allocation of the funds to proposed activities. This portion of the plan describes activities the jurisdiction will undertake in the coming year, including geographic locations, funding allocations, and eligibility critieria. Proposed activities address the priority needs and specific objectives adopted by the City Council on October 7, 2025.
