1 Executive Summary
ES-05 Executive Summary
The City of Santa Ana has prepared the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan as required to receive federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), and Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG) funds. As required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) the Consolidated Plan provides a comprehensive assessment of the City’s housing and community development needs and outlines the City’s priorities, objectives, and strategies for the investment of CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds to address these needs over the next five years, beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2030.
Each year, the City receives CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds through a formula- based allocation from HUD. These funds are awarded to non- profit organizations, for -profit entities, and public agencies to support a variety of activities that align with the City’s Consolidated Plan goals and address the priority needs of low - and moderate -income residents.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG)
The CDBG program, established under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, is a flexible federal funding source designed to address a wide range of housing and community development needs. HUD evaluates the City’s Consolidated Plan and program performance based on three primary objectives: providing decent housing, creating suitable living environments, and expand ing economic opportunities for low - and moderate-income households. To qualify for CDBG funding, each activity must 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).
HOME INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIPS (HOME)
The HOME program, established under the Cranston- Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act of 1990, is the largest federal program dedicated to affordable housing development. Designed to increase the supply of safe and affordable housing for low- and moderate-income households, the HOME program is often implemented in collaboration with non-profit housing developers, public agencies, and private entities. Eligible activities supported by HOME funds include new construction, acquisition, and rehabilitation of affordable housing, homebuyer assistance programs, and tenant-based rental assistance.
EXHIBIT 1
2 EMERGENCY SHELTER GRANT (ESG)
The Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing Act of 2009 (HEARTH Act) amended the McKinney -Vento Homeless Assistance Act, significantly revising the former Emergency Shelter Grants Program and renaming it the Emergency Solutions Grants program. The ESG program provides funding for street outreach, emergency shelter, emergency shelter operations, essential services, rapid re-housing, and homelessness prevention.
The City has been allocated $4,190,178 of CDBG, $1,159,062 of HOME, and $377,330 of ESG funds for the 2025 Program Year. The 2025-2026 Action Plan allocates these resources to fund program activities listed below that will be implemented from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025.

As of the dat
e of the preparation of this draft document, HUD has not yet released the 2025- 2026 Annual Allocations. HUD has advised the City to prepare this draft document utilizing the current year annual allocation and include “contingency provision” language detailing how the City will adjust its proposed Plan once the actual allocation amounts become EXHIBIT 1
4 known. As such, should the City’s allocation be greater or less than the amount anticipated the difference will be applied equally across all projects.
Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan needs assessment Overview
The 2025- 2029 Consolidated Plan is grounded in a comprehensive, data- driven needs assessment and market analysis, combined with insights gathered from residents, community organizations, and other local stakeholders. This approach ensures CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds are directed toward high priority needs that align with the City’s goals.
Based on this, the City has identified 10 priority needs, which will be addressed through six goals over the five-year period. These goals establish a clear framework for the allocation of CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds which ensure investments produce meaningf ul results.
Each goal is tied to measurable outcome indicators which allow the City to track progress, assess performance, and evaluate the impact of HUD-funded activities. The following table summarizes the goals, priority needs, and expected five-year outcomes.

7 Evaluation of past performance
The investment of HUD resources during the 2019- 2023 Program Years had widespread impact in Santa Ana. During Program Year 2019, the global coronavirus pandemic struck and in 2020, Congress passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES). The City received $6,894,836 CDBG-CV and $13,325,845 ESG-CV funds to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the virus in the community. The World Health Organization, based on evidence, has ended pandemic status and the national public health emergency has ended.
Together with other federal, state, and local investments, HUD resources allowed the City of Santa Ana and its partners to provide assistance to low and moderate-income individuals and households through community. The City continues to effectively implement its activities and align projects and programs with the City’s overall strategies and goal s. A full review of past performance is available in the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Reports (CAPERs) that can be accessed through the City’s website at https://www.santa-ana.org/?post_type=document&p=96924&preview=true. In summary, as of June 30, 2024, the City provided
- Public services to 73,556 individuals
- Code enforcement to 22,996 housing units
- Economic development grants to 12 start up businesses - Homelessness prevention services to 855 individuals;
- Emergency shelter to 387 individuals
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 addr ess 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 and community development needs and priorities for the City of Santa Ana over the next five years.
In accordance with the City's Citizen Participation Plan (CPP), residents and stakeholders were able to participate in the development of the 2025- 2029 Consolidated Plan through surveys, community meetings, and public hearings. Efforts were made to encourage participation by low - and moderate -income persons, particularly those living in areas where HUD funds are proposed to be used, and by residents of predominantly low - and moderate-income neighborhoods. Efforts were made to encourage the participation of EXHIBIT 1
8 minorities and non- English speaking persons, as well as persons with disabilities. The consultation process included representatives of the CoC, PHA, and other specified groups who completed surveys, provided local data, and assisted the City to ensure practical coordination of strategies to maximize impact and to avoid duplication of effort.

10 PR-10 Consultation
As part of the preparation of the Consolidated Plan the City reached out for consultation to agencies, groups, and organizations involved in the development of affordable housing, creation of job opportunities for low ‐and mod
erate‐income residents, and/or provision of
services to homeless and non- homeless individuals with special needs . To facilitate this consultation, the City solicited feedback through the following methods:
- Comm
unity Needs Survey (web‐based and paper‐surveys)
- Community and stakeholder meetings
- Public hearings
- Receipt of written or oral comments
The input received from these consultations helped establish and inform the objectives and goals described in the Strategic Plan.
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 , HOME, and ESG programs.
As a result, during the development of the Consolidated Plan, the City consulted with organizations that provide assisted housing, health services, and other community-focused programs. Outreach efforts included surveys, invitations to community meetings, and follow-up interviews where appropriate. Outreach was made to over 100 organizations and agencies including:
- Nonprofit services providers,
- Affordable and market rate housing developers,
- Housing advocates,
- Public agencies (such as the school district and Public Housing Authority) - Economic development and employment organizations
- Community and neighborhood groups, and
- Neighboring cities and communities.
The City further recognizes the importance of continued coordination and alignment during the upcoming five‐ year planning period with these organizations and agencies and will work to strengthen relationships over the next five years.

11 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 Orange County Continuum of Care (CoC) is comprised of a network of public, private, faith-based, for-profit, and non- profit service providers who utilize several federal, state, and local resources to provide services for homeless people. The region’s municipalities, including the City of Santa Ana, also provide resources for services that assist the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless. The non-profit and faith-based community plays a key role in the current CoC system. Hundreds of agencies throughout the region 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, and single men and women. The non- profit and fai th-based community also serves special needs populations, such as victims of domestic violence, veterans, the disabled, and youth.
The CoC guides the development of homeless strategies and the implementation of programs to end homelessness throughout the region. The City regularly consults with the CoC to identify needs in the jurisdiction and its objectives to address the needs of different homeless populations, including chronically homeless families and individuals, families with children, veterans, unaccompanied youth, and persons at risk of homelessness. The City continues to coordinate with the CoC to clarify existing needs and objectives and identify opportunities for collaboration during the five-year planning process.
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 Orange County CoC consults with jurisdictions receiving ESG funds on an ongoing basis. An ESG collaborative was formed in Orange County and quarterly meetings are held with representatives of the ESG jurisdictions, the Cities of Anaheim, Garden Grove, Santa Ana, and Santa Ana, and the CoC. During the meetings, funding priorities are determined which are consistent with the current Countywide Plan to End Homelessness and the Consolidated Plans of ESG jurisdictions.
The Orange County CoC’s performance standards and outcome evaluation methodology is based on data collected from HMIS and Annual Performance Reports (APRs). This information provides the CoC the extent to which each project has resulted in rapid return to permanent housing and the cost of programs. These data elements are reviewed annually.

62 PR-15 Citizen Participation
Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation
Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal setting The City of Santa Ana conducted a comprehensive citizen participation process to ensure the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan reflects community needs and priorities. The public engagement process was designed in accordance with the City’s Citizen Participation Plan (CPP) and HUD regulations (24 CFR 91.105), ensuring residents, local organizations, and community stakeholders had meaningful opportunities to participate in shaping the City's housing and community development strategies.
The Community Development Agency led outreach efforts, emphasizing broad public engagement, particularly among low - and moderate-income residents, individuals with disabilities, racial and ethnic minorities, non- English-speaking populations, and public housing residents. The City also actively consulted with local and regional institutions, businesses, developers, non-profit and faith-based organizations, the Continuum of Care (CoC), and philanthropic entities to ensure a coordinated and holistic approach t o addressing housing and community development needs.
To identify and prioritize community needs, the City developed and distributed a survey to gather input on housing, community, and economic development needs. The survey was available in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese online and in paper format at various public facilities. The survey received 103 responses. A summary of the survey and responses is in Appendix B.
In the Fall of 2024, five public ly noticed meetings were held to obtain the views of the community on the City’s housing and community development needs. The first public hearing was held on October 22, 23 and 24, 2024, in the morning afternoon and evening at four different locations throughout the City. A public hearing to adopt the Consolidated Plan and first year Annual Action Plan is scheduled for June 3, 2025, at 5:00 PM, at City Hall.
Public notices for public hearings, meetings, the survey, and the 30-day comment period were published in a medium of general circulation in the City. Additionally, the City used social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram to advertise the opportunities to participate. At each step in the process, the City was careful to ensure that low ‐ and moderate‐income residents, members of minority groups, agencies involved in the provision of services to these populations, and others who are directly impacted by the programs and activities supported by the Consolidated Plan programs had the opportunity to be actively involved.

NA-05 Overview
Needs Assessment Overview
The Consolidated Plan Needs Assessment examines a range of needs, including housing, homelessness, non-homeless special needs, and non- housing community development needs. The housing needs assessment section evaluates household income, tenure (renter or owner), housing cost as a function of household income, disproportionate need amongst racial and ethnic groups, and public housing needs.
The homeless needs assessment examines the sheltered and unsheltered homeless population in Orange County to inform the City’s strategy to address homelessness during the next five years.
The non-homeless special needs assessment section evaluates the needs of people who are not homeless, and due to various reasons need services. This population includes people who are elderly, frail and elderly, have severe mental ill ness, including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), developmental and physical disabilities, alcohol or other drug addictions, and HIV/AIDS, victims and survivors of human trafficking and domestic violence.
Lastly, the non-housing community development needs assessment section discusses the need for public facilities, public infrastructure improvements and public services to support low- and moderate-income residents.
Methodology
To assess community needs, the City examined data, held community meetings, conducted a survey of residents and regional stakeholders, and consulted with experts and local stakeholders. The Needs Assessment primarily relies on the sources of data which follow:
- American Community Survey (ACS) 2020 5-year estimates - Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) 2016-2020 - 2023 & 2024 Point-In-Time (PIT) Homeless Count
The 2020 ACS and CHAS 5 -year estimates were the most recent complete datasets available at the time the Consolidated Plan was prepared.
Consolidated Plan Survey for Residents and Stakeholders Santa Ana and stakeholders had the opportunity to respond to surveys t o rate the level of
need for public facilities, infrastructure, public and neighborhood services. The surveys also gathered insights into residents’ internet access and disaster preparedness.
Stakeholders include agencies and businesses that work with residents of Santa Ana with EXHIBIT 1
66 low- and moderate- incomes, special needs, and those experiencing, or at-risk or experiencing homelessness. Survey results from 103 residents and 40 organizations can be found in the following sections:
- Housing facility and service results – NA-10 Housing Needs Assessment, and - Public facility, infrastructure, and service results – NA-50 Non -Housing and Community Development Needs.

67 NA-10 Housing Needs Assessment
Summary of Housing Needs
Santa Ana’s population fell by four percent between 2010 and 2020, decreasing from 324,528 to 310,277 (Table 6). During this same period, the number of households rose by six percent from 74,381 to 79,142 and the median household income increased 32 percent from $54,877to $72,406.
Over 66 percent of all households in Santa Ana earn up to 80 percent Area Median Income (AMI). Figure 1 shows how many households are in each income category.
Figure 1 – Households
Data Source: 2016-2020 CHAS
The Nu
mber of Households Table (Table 7) categorizes household types in the City by income levels. Small family households consist of two-to-four family members, while large family households have five or more people. Small family households are the most common household type, representing 44 percent of all households in Santa Ana.
In this section there are eight tables of data which reference housing problems. Housing problems are defined by HUD as:
1. Lacks complete kitchen facilities: Household lacks a sink with piped water, a range or stove, or a refrigerator.
2. Lacks complete plumbing facilities: Household lacks hot and cold piped water, a flush toilet, and a bathtub or shower.
3. Overcrowding / severe overcrowding: A household is overcrowded if there are more than 1.01 people per room, excluding bathrooms, porches, foyers, halls, or half - EXHIBIT 1
68 rooms. A household is considered severely overcrowded if there are more than 1.5 people per room.
4. Cost burden / severe cost burden: A household is considered cost burdened if the household pays more than 30 percent of its total gross income for housing costs. A household is considered severely cost burdened if the household pays more than 50 percent of its total income for housing costs. For renters, housing costs include rent paid by the tenant plus utilities. For owners, housing costs include mortgage, taxes, insurance, and utilities.
The Housing Problems Table (Table 8) highlights that a housing cost burden exceeding 30 percent of income is the most common housing problem across renter and owner households, with r enter households most impacted by severe housing problems.
Approximately 40 percent of the 52, 465 households earning at most 80 percent AMI experience a housing cost burden over 30 percent of income. Approximately 73 percent of households earning at most 80 percent AMI with one or more severe housing problem are renters.

75 Describe the number and type of single-person households in need of housing assistance.
The precise number of single-person households that are elderly or low-income and in need of housing assistance is not available. According to the 5-Year ACS Estimate there were 10,496 single-person households in 2020, approximately six percent of which were over 65 years of age. Typically, it is presumed that a household needs housing assistance if they experience one or more housing problem and have incomes of at most 80 percent AMI. Table 10 provides data on the types of households impacted by housing cost burden. “Other” households are defined as nonfamily and nonelderly, which is inclusive of single persons. Elderly households include elderly families with two or more persons age 62 or older, as well as elderly nonfamilies with one or two individuals aged 62 or older. CHAS 2016-2020 estimates find 4,983 elderly and 3,735 “other” households in this income range spend more than 30 percent of their income on housing costs. The majority, 56 percent, of single-person households are renters.
Estimate the number and type of families in need of housing assistance who are disabled or victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking.
Domestic and dating violence, assault, and stalking are not always reported. According to the 2022 National Crime Victimization Survey, only 53 percent of all domestic violence events and 21 percent of rapes/sexual assaults were reported to the Police. The State of California Department of Justice maintains statistics on domestic violence calls to local law enforcement statewide by jurisdiction (openjustice.doj.ca.gov). In 2022, 1,127 calls related to domestic violence were made from Santa Ana. Of these incidents:
- 107 involved a weapon
- Eight involved a firearm
- 21 involved a knife or cutting instruments
- 38 involved other dangerous weapons
- 40 involved personal weapons (i.e., feet or hands)
There were at least 1, 127 times during 2022 when a household needed some type of domestic violence services. In households where physical violence occurred, it is possible that at least one member of the household needed to relocate to escape recurring violence.
These households may include children. Victims of domestic violence suffer in many ways including economically, which impacts access to safe and affordable permanent housing.
There is a need for emergency shelter and affordable permanent housing.
What are the most common housing problems?
The most common housing problem in the City is overcrowding and severe overcrowding.
Analysis of Housing Problems (Table 8) shows this affects 17,065 households with income at or below 80 percent AMI. Of those households, 81 percent rent their homes. The second EXHIBIT 1
76 most common housing problem is housing cost burden greater than 30 percent of income which impacts 40 percent of households earning at most 80 percent AMI . Those affected include 12,825 renter and 8,150 owner households.
Figure 2 – Most Prevalent Housing Problems
Data Source: 2016-2020 CHAS
Are any populations/household types more affected than others by these problems?
Renter households are most impacted by housing problems. Among these, small related households with low- and moderate- incomes are most impacted by housing cost burden and single family renter households are particularly affected by crowding as detailed in Table 10, Table 11, and Table 12. These households account for 21 percent of those earning at or below 80 percent of the AMI and are the most impacted by crowded living conditions.
Approximately 31 percent of households earning up to 80 percent AMI (16,470 households), carry a housing cost burden of 30 to 50 percent of income. More than twice as many renter households in this income range are impacted by this degree of housing cost burden as homeowner households. Across renter and owner households the most impacted types of households are small related, followed by large related, elderly, and “other.” About 41 percent of households (31,173 households), earning at or below 80 percent AMI carry a severe cost burden of over 50 percent of their income. More than twice as many renters are living in these circumstances as owner-occupied households. Within impacted renter households the most impacted types of households are small related , followed by large related, “other”, and elderly. Within impacted owner households the most impacted types of households are small related, followed by elderly, large related, and “other.” EXHIBIT 1
77 Describe the characteristics and needs of Low -income individuals and families with children (especially extremely low-income) who are currently housed but are at imminent risk of either residing in shelters or becoming unsheltered
91.205(c)/91.305(c)). Also discuss the needs of formerly homeless families and individuals who are receiving rapid re -housing assistance and are nearing the termination of that assistance
Extremely low - and low -income households with one or more housing problem are presumed to be unstably housed, putting them at risk of falling into homelessness. There are 33,345 households in Santa Ana earning up to 50 percent AMI, representing 42 percent of all households. Within this income range individuals and families with children are highly sensitive to adverse events.
The greatest concentrations of unstably housed households are among renter households with housing cost burden at or above 50 percent of their gross household income. Among renters experiencing severe housing cost burden small-related households are most impacted, followed by households that are large related, elderly, and “other.” Among owners experiencing severe housing cost burden small-related households are most impacted followed by elderly, large related, and “other.” Households in this income range living in crowded conditions are also unstably housed. This condition impacts a much smaller, but still significant, number of households than housing cost burden does, twenty- five percent of renter households with incomes at or below 50 percent AMI are living in crowded homes.
Figure 3 - Households With 30-50% & >50% Cost Burden
Data Source: 2016-2020 CHAS
As
described in the Market Analysis section of the Consolidated Plan, rental housing costs have risen steadily over the past ten years – creating more pressure on extremely low - EXHIBIT 1
78 income households. The ACS data shows the median contract rent in Santa Ana increased 32 percent from 2010 to 2020. As rental prices continue to rise throughout Orange County, the pressure on extremely low-income households will continue to increase.
Rapid rehousing programs may help homeless individuals and families; however, unless they secure a housing unit is within a subsidized affordable housing development, formerly homeless families and individuals receiving rapid rehousing assistance face considerable uncertainty with respect to their monthly housing costs and ability to remain stably housed once the assistance contract ends. Near the termination of assistance, finding replacement housing is difficult for the same reasons it was difficult before becoming homeless: high housing cost and the possibility of an eviction record.
If a jurisdiction provides estimates of the at -risk population(s), it should also include a description of the operational definition of the at -risk group and the methodology used to generate the estimates:
The assessment of at -risk populations described in the foregoing paragraphs in this Consolidated Plan is based on ACS and CHAS data using HUD definitions for household types and housing problems, supplemented by available local data for certain groups specified by HUD, such as households with children and victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking.
Specify particular housing characteristics that have been linked with instability and an increased risk of homelessness.
There are 10,110 renter households who earn up to 50 percent AMI and are severely cost burdened, according to the CHAS data (Table 11). Of these households:
- 4,530 are small related households with four or fewer members - 2,845 are large related households with five or more members - 1,445 are elderly households with one or more members over the age of 62 - 1,290 are other households
These extremely low - and low -income households are considered the most at -risk of becoming homeless.
Discussion
Of households with incomes at or below 50 percent AMI , 30 percent are cost burdened renters, and 30 percent are overcrowded or severely overcrowded r enters (Table 8). Of households with incomes at or below 30 percent AMI, 35 percent are cost burdened renters and 29 percent are overcrowded or severely over crowded renters ( Table 8). These households are presumed to be most at-risk of becoming homeless. To the greatest extent feasible, assistance options could make affordable housing accessible to severely cost burdened and overcrowded renter households earning up to 50 percent AMI. This is one of many ways to prevent homelessness.

Introduction
The Santa Ana Housing Authority (SAHA) is a Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) only entity .
It administers tenant - and project -based and special purpose vouchers. There are 10 project-based voucher sites. Special purpose vouchers include Mainstream Five -Year (MS5) and Veteran Affairs Supportive Housing. Additionally, SAHA administers Foster Youth to Independence and Emergency Housing Vouchers. SAHA’s mission is to “provide affordable housing for the most vulnerable members of our community to use as a platform to obtain self-sufficiency and independence from our assistance.” The tables below reflect the data provided by HUD in the eConPlanning Suite. MS5 data is included in the “Disabled” column in the tables in this section.

Section 504 Needs Assessment: Describe the needs of public housing tenants and applicants on the waiting list for accessible units.
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibits discrimination based on disability in any program or activity that is conducted by federal agencies or that receives financial assistance from a federal agency. A housing provider may not deny or refuse to sell or rent to a person with a disability and may not impose application or qualification criteria, rental fees, or sales prices and rental or sales terms or conditions that are different than those required of or provided to persons who are not disabled. Further, housing providers may not require people with disabilities to live only on certain floors, or to all live in one section of the housing. Housing providers may not refuse to make repairs and may not limit or deny someone with a disability access to recreational and other public and common use facilities, parking privileges, cleaning or janitorial services or any services that are made available to other residents.
When possible, SAHA fulfills reasonable accommodation requests. Accommodations can be requested at any time. The tenant-based HCV waitlist was open from May 2, 2022, to May 31, 2022. This resulted in a 7,500-household long waitlist. Priority was given to U.S. veterans and families that live or work in Santa Ana. As of September 30, 2024, waitlist was down to 6,710 households. Households on the waitlist are mostly families with children (54 percent), elderly households represent 28 percent and disable households represent 18 percent. A households may be both disabled and elderly.
EXHIBIT 1
81 Most immediate needs of residents of Public Housing and Housing Choice voucher holders.
The most pressing need for HCV holders is affordable housing. This is evidenced by the fact that some households have been waiting for housing for almost three years as of the completion of this Consolidated Plan.
Beyond the need for affordable housing, resident may al so need additional access to service programs such as:
- Job training and placement,
- Youth employment and educational programs,
- Childcare services,
- Transportation, and
- Medical facilities near affordable housing.
How do these needs compare to the housing needs of the population at large? The needs experienced by SAHA residents are similar to the needs of very low-income and low-income households throughout the City of Santa Ana.
Discussion
The SAHA implements a variety of strategies to address the need for affordable housing.
The core strategies include maximizing affordable housing opportunities through continuous program and management improvement and leveraging CDBG and HOME resources.

82 NA-40 Homeless Needs Assessment
Introduction
There are four federally defined categories under which individuals and families are considered homeless:
1) Literally Homeless – An individual or family:
a. Living unsheltered on the streets;
b. Living in a vehicle or other place not meant for habitation; c. Living in an emergency shelter or transitional housing program, including a motel/hotel paid by a charitable organization or government program; or d. Exiting an institution (resided 90 days or less and previously resided in one of the two items listed above).
2) Imminent Risk of Homelessness – An individual or family imminently losing their housing:
a. Housing will be lost within 14 days; and

According to the 2024 Annual Homeless Assessment Report (AHAR) to Congress, during the Point in Time (PIT) Count in January 2024, California had the highest number and rate of unsheltered homeless population in the country. Twenty-eight percent of the nation’s homeless population was reported in California. More than half of all the nation’s homeless individuals are concentrated in three states: California (24 percent), New York (20 percent), and Washington (four percent). The rate of homelessness in California increased three percent from 2023 to 2024, and 35 percent from 2007 to 2024.
In Orange County, homelessness is addressed regionally by the Orange County Continuum of Care (CoC), an umbrella organization that brings together government agencies and community-based nonprofit organizations in a coordinated effort to meet the urgent needs of those who have become homeless or are in imminent danger of becoming homeless.
The County of Orange Health Care Agency is the collaborative applicant, and 2-1- 1 OC is the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) lead agency.
The Orange County CoC conducts a PIT Count, to create a census of unsheltered and sheltered individuals experiencing homelessness. It conducts a sheltered PIT Count annually and an unsheltered PIT Count every -other-year. From 2022 to 2024, in Orange County the number of
- homeless residents rose from 5,718 to 7,322 individuals, - unsheltered residents rose from 3,057 to 4,173, and
- sheltered residents rose from 2,661 to 3,149.
In Santa Ana, from 2022 to 2024, the number of
- homeless residents rose from 990 to 1,428,
- unsheltered residents rose from 508 to 871, and
- sheltered residents rose from 482 to 557.
Since 2020, the rate of child homelessness (under the age of 18) decreased by 26 percent from 933 children to 691 children. Homelessness among transition-aged youth (18 – 24) rose 10 percent, while for adults over 24 it increased 10 percent, from 5,765 to 6,323.

If data is not available for the categories "number of persons becoming and exiting homelessness each year" and "number of days that persons experience homelessness", then describe these categories for each homeless population type (including chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth).
Data is provided in Table 18as the “number of persons becoming and exiting homelessness year” and the “number of days that persons experience homelessness”.
Estimate the number and type of families in need of housing assistance for families with children and the families of veterans.
According to the 2024 PIT Count in Orange County, there were 1,128 people in households with at least one adult and one child, comprised of 948 sheltered and 180 unsheltered people in urgent need of housing assistance.
The 2024 PIT Count revealed in Orange County 80 sheltered veterans and 248 unsheltered veterans. It is unclear how many unique families are represented in these numbers. In the universe of homeless individuals, it is not clear how many are families of deceased or estranged veterans.
Describe the Nature and Extent of Homelessness by Racial and Ethnic Group.
The 2024 PIT Count showed that most people experiencing homelessness identified as White, followed by Hispanic and One or More Race; Hispanic/Latino Only; Black, African EXHIBIT 1

Describe the Nature and Extent of Unsheltered and Sheltered Homelessness.
The 2024 PIT Count shows that on January 24, 2024, throughout Orange County most people experiencing homelessness were unsheltered . Of the 7,322 homeless individuals, 57 percent were unsheltered. Unsheltered chronically, homeless people accounted for 22 percent of all homeless individuals. Among those who were reported as being homeless and unsheltered (4,173 individuals), 49 percent were living with chronic substance abuse; 30 percent faced severe mental health issues; and ten percent had experienced domestic violence.
Discussion
The January 24, 2024 PIT Count results indicate that approximately 7, 322 people were homeless in Orange County on any given night, with 20 percent (1,428 individuals) living in Santa Ana.
EXHIBIT 1
87 NA-45 Non-Homeless Special Needs Assessment
Introduction
Special needs populations consist of persons who are not homeless, but due to various reasons they need services and supportive housing. Persons with special needs include the elderly, frail elderly, severely mentally ill, developmentally disabled, physically disabled, persons with alcohol or other drug addictions, persons with HIV/AIDS , and victims of domestic violence. The City of Santa Ana will consider allocating CDBG to public services for special the needs populations indicated , as well as victims of human trafficking and those with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or other needs.
Describe the characteristics of special needs populations in your community.
Elderly and Frail Elderly
HUD defines elderly as a person who is 62 years of age or older. A frail elderly person is an elderly person who is unable to perform at least three “activities of daily living” including eating, bathing, grooming, or home management activities. Generally, elderly people have lower incomes than the population at large. Based on 2016 -2020 CHAS data of the 24,850 households containing at least one elderly person in Santa Ana, 68 percent, 16790 households, earn less than 80 percent of the AMI and may require public services to continue to live independently. ACS data from the same period shows 11,814 residents of Santa Ana aged 65 and above have a disability. Of those people, 59 percent have ambulatory difficulty, 50 percent have independent living difficulty, and 34 percent have hearing difficulty.
Persons with Disabilities
HUD defines a disabled person as having a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activity. The main obstacle to independent living for these adults is not only their disability, but also the lack of financial resources, often due to limited employment opportunities. Additionally, persons with disabilities have high health care costs, are dependent on supportive services, and may require accessibility modifications to accommodate their disability. Based on the 2021, 1-year ACS estimate, of the total Civilian Noninstitutionalized Population age 18 and to 64 in Santa Ana , an estimated 5,477 people are employed and have a disability; 699 are unemployed and have a disability; and 6,501 have a disability and are not part of the labor force.
Alcohol and Other Drug Addictions & Mental Illness
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is the federally-funded institution established to disseminate information on mental disorders, including data on prevalence. Prevalence data is collected through the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) and is calculated for a two -year period. Unfortunately, the EXHIBIT 1
88 pandemic disrupted the method of survey delivery , which has disrupted the data series.
The most recent data set for the 2021-2022 period is only available at the state level.
Since the pandemic, rates of substance use disorder, mental illness, serious mental illness, and receipt of mental health treatment have increased among Californians ages 18-25 and 26 and over. The younger age group (18- 25) shows a higher prevalence of these issues compared to the older group (26+) . Any mental illness and serious mental illness do not include developmental, or substance use disorders. Survey results from 2021- 2022 show the following.
18- to 25-year-olds
- 34.35 percent had any mental illness
- 12.08 percent had serious mental illness
- 21.56 percent received mental health treatment in the past year - 27.24 percent had substance use disorder
26-year-olds and over
- 20.31 percent had any mental illness
- 4.66 percent had serious mental illness in the past year - 17.08 percent received mental health treatment in the past year - 16.58 percent had substance use disorder
HIV/AIDS
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) weakens the immune system by destroying important cells that fight disease and infection. Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is the final stage of HIV. The Center for Disease Control’s (CDC) Atlas Plus program reported 257 new HIV diagnoses during 2022 in Orange County (https://www.cdc.gov/nchhstp/atlas/index.htm, accessed January 2025). New HIV diagnoses were most concentrated among people aged 25- 34. For persons living with HIV/AIDS, access to affordable housing, supportive services , and quality health care is important to maintaining their health and well-being.
Victims of Domestic Violence
Domestic violence, assault, and stalking are not always reported. According to the 2022 National Crime Victimization Survey, only 53 percent of all domestic violence events and 21 percent of rapes/ sexual assaults were reported to the police. Domestic violence includes, but is not limited to, felony or misdemeanor crimes of violence committed by a current or former spouse of the victim or by a person who is cohabitating with or has cohabited with the victim. In 2022, a total of 1,127 calls related to domestic violence were made from Santa Ana ( openjustice.doj.ca.gov, accessed November 2024). Of those 107 incidents involved a weapon.
EXHIBIT 1
89 Those incidents breakdown as follows:
- eight were with a firearm;
- 21 were with a knife or cutting instruments;
- 38 were with other dangerous weapons; and
- 40 were with personal weapons.
What are the housing and supportive service needs of these populations and how are these needs determined?
Supportive services required for special needs populations include case management, medical or psychological counseling and supervision, childcare, transportation, and job training provided for the purpose of facilitating a person’s stability and independence. To determine the level of need and types of services needed by special needs populations, the City conducted a survey, consulted with local service providers, and reviewed ACS data.
In housing, accessibility modifications to accommodate persons with mobility disabilities may include, but are not limited to, wider doorways, no -step thresholds, installation of ramps, grab bars, lowered countertops, and accessible hardware. The needs of residents with sensory disabilities are different from those with mobility disabilities. Individuals with hearing disabilities require visual adaptations for such items as the telephone ringer, the doorbell and smoke alarms. Residents who are blind may require tactile marking of changes in floor level and stair edges and braille markings on appliances and controls.
People with low vision may require large print markings and displays, contrasting colors to distinguish changes in level or transition from one area to another, proper lighting, and reduced glare from lighting and windows.
For persons with special needs, the high cost of living in Orange County makes it difficult to maintain a stable residence. Often these segments of the population rely on support services from various Orange County nonprofit organizations to avoid becoming homeless or institutionalized.
Discuss the size and characteristics of the population with HIV/AIDS and their families within the Eligible Metropolitan Statistical Area.
According to the CDC, at the end of 2022, 1.2 million people in the United States had HIV, and 35,716 people had been newly diagnosed in 2021 and increased to 37,601 new diagnoses in 2022 (cdc.gov, accessed January 2025). In Orange County CDC data show, the number of persons living with HIV has increased from 6,855 in 2018 to 7,325 in 2022. Of those diagnosed with HIV, 69 percent were in receipt of medical care and 64 percent had reached viral suppression. Viral load is an indicator of health and adherence to medication.
A high viral load is indicative of illness. Viral load suppression (less than 200 copies/ml) is suggestive of improved health.
EXHIBIT 1
90 In 2022, there were 257 new HIV diagnoses in Orange County. People aged 25-34 accounted for 37 percent, the greatest concentration of new cases. Of the newly diagnosed, 89 percent were male of whom most identified racially/ ethnically as Hispanic/ Latino.
Discussion
In addition to the elderly, frail elderly, severe mentally ill, developmentally disabled, physically disabled, persons with alcohol and other drug addictions, persons with HIV/AIDS, and victims of domestic violence described above, two other subpopulations with special needs in Orange County include victims of human trafficking and individuals with PTSD.
Victims of Human Trafficking
Human trafficking is a crime that involves the forceful, fraudulent, or coercive methods of entrapping a person, real or perceived, to exploit them for financial gain. The exploitative nature can come in the form of labor services, involuntary servitude, enslavement, debt bondage or commercialized sex acts. Human trafficking is extremely difficult to track; there is no recent or reliable prevalence rate to report. In 2023, in California, the National Human Trafficking Hotline identified 1,128 cases of human trafficking which involved 2,045 victims (https://humantraffickinghotline.org/ accessed January 2025). The most common type of human trafficking reported in California was sex trafficking.
The U.S. Department of State Trafficking in Persons Report published in July 2022, reports victims of human trafficking are found in every state in the country and trafficked from every country in the world. Victims of human trafficking in the United States are most frequently trafficked from within the United States, Mexico, and Honduras.
Trafficking in
Persons reports “Traffickers often target those who experience compounding forms of discrimination (such as discrimination because of one’s racial or ethnic group, gender identity, disability, or sexual orientation), experience violence (such as intimate partner or domestic violence) or interact with government run programs (such as the criminal justice system, runaway and homeless youth services, foster or institution care, and the immigration enforcement system.”
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) explains Post -Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can “develop after exposure to a potentially traumatic event that is beyond a typical stressor” and potential inducing events may include, but are not limited to, “violent personal assaults, natural or human-caused disasters, accidents, combat, and other forms of violence.” Symptoms of PTSD can be debilitating. The U.S. Department of Veteran’s Affairs National Center for PTSD recognizes the disorder impacts populations inside and outside of the military including families, children, and non -combatants. The National Center reports an estimated six percent of the population, eight percent of women and four EXHIBIT 1
91 percent of men, will have PTSD at some point in their lives. “Women are more likely to develop PTSD than men in part due to the types of traumatic events that women are more likely to experience – such as sexual assault—compared to men.” Challenges these special needs populations and subpopulations face include low -income and high housing cost. This segment of the population also struggles for a decent quality of life that includes access to necessities, adequate food, clothing, and medical care.
Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)
COVID-19 caused a global pandemic. Its widespread impact on the United State began in March 2020. In the ensuing years, lives changed dramatically, from the impact of measures to prevent the spread of the disease – including stay-in-place orders, social distancing, mask wearing and vaccination – to death. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act allocated funds to respond to the public health emergency through HUD. The City o f Santa Ana was awarded $6, 894,836 CDBG-CV and $13,325,845 ESG-CV funds to assist low- and moderate-income individuals and families impacted by COVID-19.
The national and global public health emergency status was lifted in May 2023; however, the virus is still present and active around the world.
NA-50 Non-Housing Community Development Needs
Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Facilities.
Santa Ana continues to invest in new public facilities and the maintenance and improvement of existing facilities. Facilities constructed during the 1070s and 1980s require rehabilitation to meet evolving community needs, modernization of amenities, and compliance with the American with Disabilities Act.
CDBG public facility projects that meet CDBG eligibility requirements, align with a Strategic Plan goal, and address a CDBG National Objective will be considered for funding in the five Annual Action Plans. The Strategic Plan includes a goal to improve public facilities.
Facilities may require improvement during the next five years include, but are not limited to, parks and recreational and parking facilities and childcare, youth and community centers.
How were these needs determined?
The need for public facility improvements was determined through community meetings, the Community Needs Survey, stakeholder meetings, the Stakeholder Survey, and review of the City’s Capital Improvement Plan.
EXHIBIT 1
92 Figure 5 – Accessibility and Condition of Public Facilities and Infrastructure Source: Community Needs Survey
Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Improvements.
Santa Ana works to improve and construct public infrastructure to meet the needs of residents. The Capital Improvement Program includes projects in the areas of street, traffic, utility, drainage and lighting improvements. Eligible projects will be considered for CDBG funding.
How were these needs determined?
The need for public infrastructure improvements was determined through community meetings, the Community Needs Survey, stakeholder meetings, the Stakeholder survey, and review of the City’s Capital Improvement Plan.
Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Services.
Residents and stakeholders in Santa Ana appreciate the availability and quality of public services and express the view that continued support for services is needed. Approximately 66 percent of households in Santa Ana have income at or below 80 percent AMI. The provision of services at reduced or no cost expands choices available to residents with low- and moderate-incomes.
Pursuant to CDBG regulations, only 15 percent of the City’s annual grant allocation and any prior year program income may fund public service -type activities. The City proposes to focus funds on households with lower incomes to establish, improve, and expand access to existing public services, such as services for families with children, youth, workforce development, mental health, and neighborhood clean-ups.

MA-05 Overview
Housing Market Analysis Overview
This section of the Consolidated Plan evaluates housing market conditions i n Santa Ana including housing supply, demand, condition, and cost. The data shows that that are single detached-structures a are most prominent representing 47 percent of all structures. The housing stock is relatively dated, 80 percent of units were constructed before 1980.
The data shows the housing market in Santa Ana is relatively tight and many households, especially renters, are experiencing a housing cost burden. From 2020 to 2024 the median value for homes in Santa Ana increased 41 percent, according to the Zillow Home Value Index. ACS data shows median contract rent increased 32 percent over the last 10 years.
While CHAS data shows there are enough housing units affordable to people with incomes up to 80 percent AMI the surplus of units is minimal. There are only 652 more units affordable to households with income up to 80 percent AMI than there are households at that income level. T here is no assurance as to which unit a household occupies. This situation is not new. For many years monthly rent increased at a faster rate than household income. CHAS data shows 20 percent of households earning at or below 80 percent AMI experience a housing cost burden greater than 50 percent of income.

Introduction
According to 2016-2020 ACS data, 47 percent of the City’s housing stock is comprised of single detached-structures. Structures with 20 or more units make up 16 percent, while mobile homes comprise the smallest portion at two percent. According to the 2016- 2020 ACS estimates, the gross number of housing units in the city increased by 4,140 from 77,156 in 2015 to 81,296 in 2020.
Most rental and ownership housing units i n Santa Ana have two or three bedrooms (60 percent). Less than one percent of all units are ownership units that have no-bedroom and four percent of all units are rentals with four or more bedrooms . Table 20 and Table 21 illustrate the number of residential properties in the City by property type, unit size, and tenure.

96 Describe the number and targeting (income level/type of family served) of units assisted with federal, state, and local programs.
The City tracks the affordability status of 5,018 affordable housing units, which were constructed, rehabilitated, or supported with HOME, Housing Set-Aside, Housing Bond, or tax credit funds, HCVs and other public sources, according to the City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element.
Provide an assessment of units expected to be lost from the affordable housing inventory for any reason, such as expiration of Section 8 contracts.
HUD requires the City to analyze federal, state and locally assisted housing units that may be lost from the City’s affordable housing stock. The expiration of affordability restrictions on government assisted rental units is the typical reason that affordable units convert to market rate and are “lost.” Much of the housing at -risk of conversion from affordable housing to market rate housing is predominantly reserved for lower income households.
Use restrictions, as defined by state law, means any federal, state, or local statute, regulation, ordinance, or contract that as a condition of receipt of any housing assistance, including a rental subsidy, mortgage subsidy, or mortgage insurance, to an assisted housing development, establishes maximum limitations on tenant income as a condition of eligibility for occupancy.
Conversion Risk
According to the City’s
2021-2029 Housing Element , there are 500 publicly assisted affordable rental units at risk of converting to market rate units in 2025.
Preservation and Replacement Options
To maintain the existing affordable housing stock, the City may either preserve the existing assisted units or facilitate the development of new units. Each negotiation to preserve affordable units is unique, as project ownership interests and economic vary and City resources may be insufficient to preserve all units when covenants expire. Depending on the circumstances, different options may be used to preserve or replace the units.
Preservation options typically include: 1) transfer of units to nonprofit ownership; 2) providing rental assistance to tenants using other funding sources; and 3) purchasing extended affordability covenants. For replacement, the most direct option is the development of new affordable units with long-term covenants.
Does the availability of housing units meet the needs of the population? There is a significant need for additional rental housing units of all sizes affordable to households earning up to 80 percent AMI, especially smaller units such as no-bedroom and one-bedroom units and larger units such as those with four or more bedrooms t .
EXHIBIT 1
97 Determining the exact number and size of units is challenging, as there is no guarantee regarding the size of the housing unit a household occupy.
Describe the need for specific types of housing.
ACS data indicates that in 2020 there were 10,496 single-person households in Santa Ana – 4,598 renters and 5,898 owners. Table 21 shows 17,504 no-bedroom and one-bedroom units in the City, 15,723 rental, 1,781 owner. The data suggests a potential need for more opportunities to purchase small housing units. CHAS data shows that in 2020 there were 18,110 large family households with more than four family members and 14,427 housing units with four or more bedrooms. This may indicate a potential need for more large units.
Table 10 reports cost burden and illustrates the number and approximate size of households with incomes at or below 80 percent AMI living in housing units that are beyond their financial means. Elderly and “other” types include single-person households and large related households include more than four people. In Santa Ana there are
- 2,298 r enter and 2,685 owner elderly households;
- 2,880 renter and 855 “other” households; and
- 6,645 renter and 2,105 owner large related households.
This data also indicates there may be a need for more opportunities to purchase small housing units and rent large housing units..
Discussion
For decades, California’s housing market has been among the most expensive in the country, and those conditions persist today. Not only is renting expensive, but purchasing a home is also largely out of reach. To afford median market rent for a two- bedroom unit in Santa Ana a household must earn $63 per hour or work over 156 hours per week at minimum wage of $16 per hour, which equates to about four full time jobs. These calculations were made using the same method as the National Low Income Housing Coalition in the Out if Reach series and using market rate r ent from Zumper. Market rate rents are significantly higher than fair market rents and more accurately reflect the experience low- and moderate-income households are facing.

99 MA-15 Housing Market Analysis: Cost of Housing
Introduction
One of the most important factors in evaluating a community’s housing market is the cost of housing and whether the housing is affordable to households who live there or would like to live there. If housing costs are relatively high in comparison to household income, a correspondingly high prevalence of housing cost burden and overcrowding will typically occur.
Table 23 indicates the median home value and contract rent (not including utility or other associated costs). These values are self-reported by residents through the ACS Survey and the data reflects the 5-Year Estimate for 2016-2020. Looking to more current housing sales and rental market data it becomes clear the cost of housing is growing rapidly. ACS data shows median contract rent increased 32 percent from 2010 to 2020. In 2020, according to ACS data, median home values in Santa Ana rose 26 percent greater than in 2010, during the mortgage-backed securities housing foreclosure crisis. According to the Zillow home value index, value increased 41 percent from $594,064 in November 2020 to $834,377 in November 2024.

Is there sufficient housing for households at all income levels? CHAS data indicates the number of units affordable to each income group, from below 30 percent AMI to 100 percent AMI . The data shows there are more units affordable to households at each income level than there are households . The number of extra units declines with household incomes. According to the data there are 20 more units affordable to households with incomes at or below 30 percent AMI and 248 units affordable to households with incomes at or below 50 percent AMI.
Determining the number of additional affordable housing units needed to eliminate or significantly reduce cost burden is complex. A key challenge is that households of a particular income level do not always occupy a unit that aligns with their income level, even when such units are available in the open marketplace. This is evident in the data, which shows there are enough units affordable to all households, still 40 percent of households earning up to 80 percent AMI experience a housing cost burden spending more than 30 percent of their income on housing.

How is affordability of housing likely to change considering changes to home values and/or rents?
Rental housing costs have increased steadily over the past ten years – creating more pressure on extremely low-income households. Median market rate rents exceed the Fair Market Rents for Orange County and represent a significant burden for low- and moderate- income households struggling to remain housed. Similarly, according to home value data supplied by Zillow, median home sales increased 41 percent from $594,064 in 2020 to $834,377 in 2024. Based on this information and barring significant regional and national changes in economic conditions, the price of housing in Santa Ana is forecast to continue increasing during the period of the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan.
How do HOME rents / Fair Market Rent compare to Area Median Rent? How might this impact your strategy to produce or preserve affordable housing? In 2022 there was significant variation in low HOME, fair market, market rate, and median contract rents. This variance makes it difficult to identify viable affordable housing projects to support and reduces the number of affordable housing units that become available.

Discussion
Economic expansion over the last decade and a lag in production of new housing units in Southern California have created a housing economy that is overburdened.
Homeownership is out of reach to many Santa Ana households and a single person earning minimum wage cannot reasonably afford a two- bedroom rental apartment. A household would need to earn about $177,840 annually to reasonably afford a $730,205 home, which was the median home value in Santa Ana reported November 2022 per the Zillow Home EXHIBIT 1
103
Value Index. The median household income in Santa Ana in 2022 was less than half that, $84,210. A household would need to earn about $116,000 annually to afford a two-bedroom rental in the City. A full -time minimum wage employee will gross approximately $30,000 annually.

MA-20 Housing Market Analysis: Condition of Housing –
91.210(a)
Introduction
Assessing the age and physical condition of housing in Santa Ana forms the basis of strategies to maintain and improve housing quality for low - and moderate- income residents. For this assessment, the ACS defines a “selected condition” as owner- or renter- occupied housing units with at least one of the following conditi ons: 1) lacking complete plumbing facilities; 2) lacking complete kitchen facilities; 3) more than one occupant per room; and 4) selected monthly housing costs greater than 30 percent of household income.
Approximately half of both renter - and owner-occupied units have one or two selected conditions.
Definitions
Substandard housing is housing that does not meet the minimum standards contained in the
State Housing Code (i.e., does not provide shelter, endangers health, safety or well - being of occupants). A substandard condition is one that adversely affects habitability of the housing unit. As defined by
California Health and Safety Code, a substandard condition exists to the extent that it endangers the health and safety of its occupants or the public.
Such conditions include:
- Inadequate sanitation
- Structural hazards
- Any nuisance that endangers the health and safety of the occupants or the public - All substandard plumbing, wiring, and/or mechanical equipment, unless it conformed to all applicable laws in effect at the time of installation and has been maintained in a good and safe condition
- Faulty weather protection
- The use of construction materials not allowed or approved by the health and safety code
- Fire, health and safety hazards (as determined by the appropriate fire or health official)
- Lack of, or inadequate fire -resistive construction or fire- extinguishing systems as required by the health and safety code, unless the construction and/or systems conformed to all applicable laws in effect at the time of construction and/or installation and adequately maintained
- Inadequate structural resistance to horizontal forces - Buildings or portions thereof occupied for living, sleeping, cooking, or dining purposes that were not designed or intended to be used for such occupancies EXHIBIT 1
105
- Inadequate maintenance that causes a building or any portion thereof to be declared unsafe
Standard housing condition in Santa Ana is defined as housing that meets the minimum standards of the State Housing Code . For the purposes of the CDBG program, a unit in substandard condition is considered suitable for rehabilitation provided the unit is structurally sound, and the cost of rehabilitation is considered economically warranted.

The age and condition of Santa Ana’s housing stock is an important indicator of potential rehabilitation needs. Housing over 30 years of age can be presumed to need some form of major rehabilitation, such as roof replacement, foundation work and plumbing systems.
Housing over 20 years of age will generally exhibit deficiencies in terms of paint, weatherization, heating/air-conditioning systems, hot water heaters and finish plumbing fixtures. Housing values in Santa Ana have increased significantly over a re latively short period of time. Longtime homeowners, especially the elderly and disabled, are more likely to have fixed and limited incomes and may have difficulty maintaining their homes.
The housing stock in Santa Ana is dated; 80 percent of housing units were constructed before 1980 according to 2016 -2020 CHAS data. About 15 percent of owner - and renter- occupied housing in Santa Ana was built 30 to 40 years ago between 1980 and 1999. There are 24,850 households with at least one member over the age of 62 and 16,790 of whom have household incomes at or below 80 percent AMI, according to 2016- 2020 CHAS data.
There are approximately 12,148 people aged 18 to 64 with disabilities, according to 2016- 2020, ACS 5-Year estimates. These households may be presumed to have fixed incomes. It is reasonable to anticipate a significant number of housing units in need of repair and a significant number of households will need financial assistance to complete those repairs.
Estimated Number of Housing Units Occupied by Low - or Moderate -Income Families with LBP Hazards
Any housing built before 1978 may contain lead- based paint. If ingested, lead may cause severe damage to young children including decreased growth, learning disabilities, impaired hearing, hyperactivity, nerve and brain damage. Lead attacks the central nervous system, the neurological system, and can cause brain damage, IQ reduction, learning disabilities, decreased attention span, hyperactivity, growth inhibition, comas, seizures, and in some cases, death. Fetuses may also experience significant adverse effects through prenatal exposure. Children are more susceptible to the effects of lead because their EXHIBIT 1
107
growing bodies absorb more lead, and young children often put their hands and other objects in their mouths. Most children do not have any symptoms, even if a blood test shows that they have an elevated blood lead level. If a child does have symptoms, the symptoms may be mistaken for the flu or other illnesses.
Most of the housing stock in Santa Ana was bui lt before 1979 and is presumed to contain lead paint. The 2016 -2020 CHAS data shows 7,825 low- and moderate- income renter households with children under the age of six were living in housing constructed before 1980, and 2,905 owner-occupied households meet the same conditions.
Number of Children with Elevated Blood Levels of Lead
The State of California mandates lead screening for all children who participate in publicly funded health programs. In California, screening typically occurs at ages one and two years. A blood level of 10 µg/dL or higher was previously referred to as an “elevated blood level (EBL).” However, as it is now recognized there is no safe level of lead, and adverse effects occur at levels below 10 µg/dL, an “elevated” blood lead level is no longer defined at a specific cut-off point. Of Orange County children under the age of six whose blood lead level has been fully tested 1.46 percent have levels greater than 3.5 mcg/Dl.
Discussion
Preservation of the physical and functional integrity of existing housing units occupied by low- and moderate-income households is a cost-effective way to invest limited resources to retain existing housing units already affordable to low - and moderate- income households in the community. Many different types of housing services are needed. As required by HUD’s Lead Safe Housing Rule, the City’s housing rehabilitation programs will include appropriate safety measures such as testing and abatement for projects involving units constructed prior to 1978.

MA-30 Homeless Facilities and Services
Introduction
Regionally, there are numerous facilities and services to support residents at -risk of becoming homeless and experiencing homelessness. These include a range of emergency shelters, transitional shelters, and permanent supportive housing options. HUD uses the following definitions for these three facility types:
- Emergency Shelter (ES): Any facility with the primary purpose of providing a temporary shelter for the homeless in general or for specific populations of the homeless and which does not require occupants to sign leases or occupancy agreements.
- Transitional Housing: Transitional housing (TH) is designed to provide homeless individuals and families with interim stability and support to successfully move to and maintain permanent housing. Transitional housing may be used to cover the costs of up to 24 months of housing with accompanying supportive services.
Program participants must have a lease (or sublease) or occupancy agreement in place when residing in transitional housing.
- Rapid Re-Housing (RRH) is designed to quickly move individuals and families out of homelessness and into permanent housing through the provision of up to 24 months of rental assistance and supportive services.
- Permanent Supportive Housing: Permanent supportive housing (PSH) is defined as community-based housing paired with supportive services to serve households in which at least one member has a disability. Housing does not have a designated length of stay in which formerly homeless individuals and families live as independently as possible. Under PSH, a program participant must be the tenant on a lease (or sublease) for an initial term of at least one year that is renewable and is terminable only for cause.

Describe mainstream services, such as health, mental health, and employment services to the extent those services are used to complement services targeted to homeless persons
In California , the primary programs for assisting families in poverty are CalWORKS, CalFresh, and Medi -Cal. These programs provide clients with employment assistance, discounted food, medical care, childcare, and cash payments to meet basic needs, such as housing and transportation.
The California Work Opportunities for Kids (CalWORKs) program provides financial assistance and Welfare- to-Work services to California families with little to no cash.
Through this program these families may be eligible to receive immediate short-term help with housing, food, utilities, clothing, or medical care. Childcare is also available through this program.
CalFresh, formerly the Food Stamp Program, is a nutritional assistance program that provides Electronic Benefit Transfer Cards to people receiving public assistance to purchase food and other essential items.
The Medi-Cal program provides health coverage for people with low -income and limited ability to pay for health coverage, including seniors, those with disabilities, young adults and children, pregnant women, persons in a skilled nursing or intermediate care home, and persons in the Breast and Cervical Cancer Treatment Program (BCCTP). People receiving federally-funded cash assistance programs, such as CalWORKs (a state implementation of the federal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program), the State Supplementation Program (SSP) (a state supplement to the federal Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program), foster care, adoption assistance, certain refugee assistance programs, or In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS), are also eligible.
CDBG, HOME, and ESG Funded Activities
Congress designed the CDBG programs to serve low -income people, some of which may meet the federal poverty definition. The City of Santa Ana received funding to run CDBG, HOME, and ESG programs. At least 70 percent of all CDBG funds must be used for activities that are considered under program rules to benefit low - and moderate-income persons.
Additionally, every CDBG activity must meet one of three national objectives: benefit low- and moderate-income persons (at least 51 percent of the beneficiaries must be low - and moderate-income); address slums or blight; or meet a particularly urgent community development need. CDBG programs assist the homeless and those at-risk-of homelessness directly and indirectly.
Under the HOME program, households must earn no more than 80 percent of the AMI, adjusted for household size, to be eligible for assistance. Furthermore, 90 percent of the EXHIBIT 1
111
allocation that is invested in affordable rental housing must be directed to assist households earning no more than 60 percent AMI.
The Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) program provides homeless persons with basic shelter and essential supportive services. It can assist with the operational costs of the shelter facility, and for the administration of the grant. ESG also provides short -term homeless prevention assistance to persons at imminent risk of losing their own housing due to eviction, foreclosure, or utility shutoffs.
List and describe services and facilities that meet the needs of homeless persons, particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth. If the services and facilities are listed on screen SP-40 Institutional Delivery Structure or screen MA-35 Special Needs Facilities and Services, describe how these facilities and services specifically address the needs of these populations.

MA-35 Special Needs Facilities and Services
Introduction
Special needs populations include people who are not homeless but need services and supportive housing. The City will consider allocating CDBG public service funding to programs that provide services to special needs populations, including but not limited to those serving the elderly, frail elderly, people with disabilities including mental, physical, and alcohol or substance abuse, PTSD, HIV/AIDS, veterans, and survivors and victims of domestic violence and human trafficking or other needs.
Elderly is defined under the CDBG program as a person who is aged 62 and older. A frail elderly person is an elderly person who is unable to independently perform at least three “activities of daily living” including eating, bathing, grooming or home management activities. Based on 2016-2020 CHAS data, of the 24,850 households containing at least one elderly person in Santa Ana, 16,790 households, earn up to 80 percent of the AMI and may require public services to continue to live independently. ACS data from the same period shows 11,814 residents of Santa Ana aged 65 and older have a disability. Of those people, 59 percent have independent living difficulty, 50 percent have hearing difficulty, and 34 percent have hearing difficulty.
People with disabilities defined as having a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, generally rely on supportive services to perform activities of daily living. In Santa Ana , t he Civilian Noninstitutionalized Population aged 18 to 64 includes 213,771 individuals, an estimated 5.7 p ercent experiencing a disability (ACS, 5-year estimates). Among those with disabilities:
- 44 percent have ambulatory difficulty;
- 41 percent have cognitive impairments;
- 37 percent have independent living difficulties;
- 24 percent have a vision difficulty;
- 19 percent a hearing impairment; and
- 19 percent have difficulty with self-care.
Drug abuse or substance abuse is defined as the use of chemical substances that lead to an increased risk of problems and an inability to control the use of the substance.
Substance abuse can be indicative of addiction disorder and may stem from physical and mental health issues. SAMHSA conducted the National Survey on Drug Use and Health and found in California the prevalence of substance use disorder over the last year among the population over the age of 11 was 8.27 percent in 2013 -2014 and was 17.12 percent in 2021-2022.
EXHIBIT 1

HIV is a virus that weakens the immune system by destroying important cells that fight diseases and infection. Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome is the final stage of HIV.
The Center for Disease Control’s (CDC) Atlas Plus program reported an estimated 7,325 persons living in Orange County with HIV disease at the end of 2022. Of that number, 257 had been newly diagnosed during that year (https://www.cdc.gov/nchhstp/atlas/index.htm, accessed January 2025). New HIV diagnoses were most concentrated among those aged 25 to 34.
Domestic violence includes, but is not limited to, felony or misdemeanor crimes of violence committed by a current or former spouse of the victim or by a person who is cohabitating with or has cohabited with the victim. In 2022, 1,127 calls related to domestic violence were made from Santa Ana ( openjustice.doj.ca.gov, accessed November 2024). Of these domestic incidents, 107 involved a weapon and 1,020 did not.
Human trafficking is a crime that involves the forceful, fraudulent, or coercive methods of entrapping a person, real or perceived, to exploit them for financial gain. The exploitative nature can come in the form of labor services, involuntary servitude, enslavement, debt bondage or commercial sex acts. Human trafficking is extremely difficult to track; there is no recent or reliable prevalence rate to report. In 2023, in California, the National Human Trafficking Hotline identified 1,128 cases of human trafficking, which involved 2,045 victims (https://humantraffickinghotline.org/ accessed January 2025). The most common type of human trafficking reported in California was sex trafficking The U.S. Department of State Trafficking in Persons Report published in July 2022, reports victims of human trafficking are found in every state in the country and trafficked from every country in the world.
Victims of human trafficking in the United States are most frequently trafficked from within the United States, Mexico, and Honduras.
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) explains PTSD can “develop after exposure to a potentially traumatic event that is beyond a typical stressor” and potential inducing events may include, but are not limited to, “violent personal assaults, natural or human- caused disasters, accidents, combat, and other forms of violence.” Symptoms of PTSD can be debilitating. The U.S. Department of Veteran’s Affairs National Center for PTSD reports an estimated six percent of the population, eight percent of women and four percent of men, will have PTSD at some point in their lives.
Including the elderly, frail elderly, persons with disabilities (mental, physical, developmental), persons with alcohol or other drug addictions, persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, public housing residents and any other categories the jurisdiction may specify, and describe their supportive housing needs.
To determine the level of need and types of services needed by special needs populations, the City conducted the Community Needs Survey, consulted with local service providers , and reviewed data from the ACS, CHAS, CDC, State of C alifornia Department of Justice, EXHIBIT 1
115
U.S. Department of State, and NIMH. Supportive services required for special needs populations include case management, medical or psychological counseling and supervision, childcare, transportation, and job training for the purpose of facilitating a person’s stability and independence.
In housing, accessibility modifications to accommodate persons with mobility disabilities may include, but are not limited to, wider doorways, no step thresholds, installation of ramps, grab bars, lowered countertops, and accessible hardware. The needs of residents with sensory disabilities are different from those with mobility disabilities. Individuals with hearing disabilities require visual adaptations for such items as the telephone ringer, the doorbell and smoke alarms. Residents who are blind may require tactile marking of changes in floor level and stair edges and braille markings on appliances and controls.
People with low vision may require large print markings and displays, contrasting colors to distinguish changes in level or transition from one area to another, proper lighting, and reduced glare from lighting and windows.
Describe programs for ensuring that persons returning from mental and physical health institutions receive appropriate supportive housing A lack of supportive housing combined with i nadequate discharge planning and coordination contributes to homelessness when individuals are released from public institutions or public systems of care without having access to appropriate housing options. Coordinated discharge planning is considered a best practice for those exiting foster care, healthcare , mental health treatment, and correctional facilities . The state mandates discharge planning policy for these systems to help ensure a smoother transition into stable housing.
For entitlement/consortia grantees: Specify the activities that the jurisdiction plans to undertake during the next year to address the housing and supportive services needs identified in accordance with 91.215(e) with respect to persons who are not homeless but have other special needs. Link to one-year goals.
Santa Ana identified access to and supply of public services as a priority need in the City.
It set the goal of providing a ccess to and supply of public services Work with local and regional nonprofits and service providers to ensure the provision of critical services and activities to low - and moderate -income residents and special needs populations throughout the City. During the first year of this Consolidated P lan cycle the City will allocate $628,527 to public services activities which it anticipates will benefit approximately 1,480 households with low- and moderate-income.

MA-40 Barriers to Affordable Housing
Negative Effects of Public Policies on Affordable Housing and Residential Investment
A barrier to affordable housing is a public policy or nongovernmental condition that constrains the development or rehabilitation of affordable housing, such as land use controls, property taxes, state prevailing wage requirements, environmental protection , cost of land and availability of monetary resources. Barriers to affordable housing differ from impediments to fair housing choice in that barriers are legally permiss ible, whereas impediments to fair housing choice are typically unlawful.
The City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element includes an identification and prioritization of significant contributing factors that impede fair housing and/or result in disproportionate housing needs. Through discussions with stakeholders and fair housing advocates, community feedback, and the assessment of fair housing included in the Housing Element, the City identified the following fair housing issues:
- Displacement risk
- Lack of safe and sanitary housing
- Housing overcrowding
- Low household incomes
- Exposure to environmental hazards
- Lack of quality education and job training
The pr
imary factor contributing to these housing issues is the limited availability of resources to subsidize housing development to the point that units are affordable to low - and moderate-income households. 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. This was the most significant public policy change impacting affordable housing and residential investment. 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.

Describe the workforce and infrastructure needs of the business community The business community in Santa Ana relies largely on a skilled and educated workforce, starting with the Santa Ana Unified School District (SAUSD) and over 40 nearby colleges and universities and continuing with City and County employers. Santa Ana is the Orange EXHIBIT 1
120
County seat. Employers across the top sectors, and especially those that are a destination location or part of a larger logistics chain such as manufacturing, depend on well - functioning roads and transportation system and amenities.
Describe any major changes that may have an economic impact, such as planned local or regional public or private sector investments or initiatives that have affected or may affect job and business growth opportunities during the planning period. Describe a ny needs for workforce development, business support or infrastructure these changes may create.
Santa Ana continues to be directly impacted by the Orange County and metro -region’s economic conditions and changes.
Three primary trends that are impacting the region’s economy are as follows:
1. Technological advances, such as social media, e -commerce, and automation, are currently disrupting many traditional industries.
2. A surging housing market representing tremendous economic growth while simultaneously creating affordability concerns for many residents.
3. Near record -low unemployment rates and significant employment growth in traditional and emerging industry sectors.
How do the skills and education of the current workforce correspond to employment opportunities in the jurisdiction?
An estimated 41 percent of Santa Ana’s population aged 18-64 has some post-secondary education, 26 percent of whom have some college or an Associate degree. Generally, the skills and education of the current workforce correspond to the employment opportunities in Santa Ana. Table 35 indicates that the number of workers exceeds the available jobs in the following industry sectors: Agriculture, Mining, Oil & Gas, Arts, Entertainment, Accommodations, Construction, Information, Manufacturing, Other Services, Professional, Scientific, Management , Retail Trade , and Transportation and Warehousing . Most .
Additionally, most of the working population in Santa Ana travels less than 30 minutes to work.
Describe any current workforce training initiatives, including those supported by Workforce Investment Boards, community colleges and other organizations.
Describe how these efforts will support the jurisdiction's Consolidated Plan.
There are many workforce training initiatives available to qualified Santa Ana residen ts.
The Orange County Workforce Development Board (OCWDB) together with the County Board of Supervisors oversees regional economic development activities and programs, including OC Workforce Solutions.

Workforce development programs represent a significant opportunity for Orange County to strengthen its labor market and competitive advantages and improve economic equity.
These programs have fewer barriers to entry than four -year college degrees and are t hus more accessible to lower -income residents, including those in Disinvested Communities, and are a proven bridge to sustainable, gainful employment.
Does your jurisdiction participate in a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS)?
Yes
If so, what economic development initiatives are you undertaking that may be coordinated with the Consolidated Plan? If not, describe other local/regional plans or initiatives that impact economic growth.
The City participates in the preparation of the Orange County CEDS. The process is led by the OCWDB. The most recent CEDS covers the period 2024 to 2029 and establishes six goals. Goal number two is to “focus on residents living in disinvested communities.” Disinvested communities are the top 25 percent of Census Tracts in Orange County based on the economic, social, and environmental metrics of the CalEnviroScreen. In Santa Ana, 11 disinvested areas have been identified. Low- and moderate-income residents of these areas may qualify for public service, housing and homeless assistance programs supported with CDGB, HOME, and ESG funds.
Discussion
In the spring of 2020, unemployment rates in the United States reached the highest levels since the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) began recording this data. According to the BLS, national unemployment rates reached 23.5 percent in May 2020. Unemployment rates remained at historically high levels for almost six months. As of May 2024, unemployment rates had declined to 4.6 percent in Santa Ana and 4.5 percent in Orange County. In 2019, prior to the pandemic, the unemployment rate in Santa Ana was 3.0 percent and 4.5 percent in Orange County.

MA-50 Needs and Market Analysis Discussion
Are there areas where households with multiple housing problems are concentrated? (include a definition of “concentration”) Concentrations of households with housing problems are defined as ten percent over the rate at which severe housing problems occur throughout the City as a whole, based on CHAS 2016-2020 data. Citywide, 21 percent of households have one or more severe housing problem, thus the threshold for concentration is 31 percent. Map 4 illustrates areas throughout the City where a concentration of households have severe housing problems.
Are there any areas in the jurisdiction where racial or ethnic minorities or low - income families are concentrated? (include a definition of “concentration”) Low-income is recognized as up to 50 percent AMI . Concentrations are defined as areas where these populations exceed the citywide rate by at least ten percent. Citywide, 46 percent of households have low incomes, so the threshold is 56 percent. Map 5 illustrates areas throughout the City where a concentration of households have low incomes. Ther are some areas of the City where concentration of severe housing problems and low income intersect.
Pursuant to the Interim Final Rule: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Revisions Federal Register Volume 90, No. 40 – March 3, 2025 – Pages 11020-11025, HUD reconsidered the racial or ethnic minority analysis. The Interim Final Rule, effective April 2, 2025 , removed this requirement formerly stated at 24 CFR 91.205(b)(2).

What are the characteristics of the market in these areas/neighborhoods? There is a high frequency of housing cost burden in these areas.
Are there any community assets in these areas/neighborhoods? According to the City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element , Santa Ana residents tend to live in closer proximity to jobs and have better access to those jobs through transit connections when compared to the county as a whole.
Are there other strategic opportunities in any of these areas? There are no readily apparent strategic opportunities to be addressed with CDBG, HOME, or ESG funds specific to any of these neighborhoods.

MA-60 Broadband Needs
Describe the need for broadband wiring and connections for households, including low- and moderate-income households and neighborhoods.
All residences and small businesses in Santa Ana have access to fixed and mobile broadband. Internet Service Providers (ISP) self -report to the Federal Communications Commission on broadband availability throughout the county. Fixed broadband goes to homes and small businesses using fiber, cable, DSL, satellite, and fixed wireless technology. Mobile broadband is stationary coverage outdoors and mobile in- vehicle coverage. The FCC National Broadband data shows, as of June 2023, fixed internet access is available at six different download/ upload speeds ranging from 0.2/0.2 megabits per second (Mbps) to 1,000/100 Mbps and mobile access is available at 4 G 5/1 Mbps, 5G -NR 7/1and 35/3 Mbps.
The FCC’s Affordable Connective Plan, offered financial assistance to help households with low-income afford access to the internet has been discontinued. This program was available to new applicants from 2021 through February 2024. As of December 2023 35,509, Sant a Ana households subscribed to this program. The state offers the California LifeLine program that provides discounted home and cell phone services to eligible households. A discounted phone line may defray household costs, reducing the impact of the cost of an internet service provider. A high level of need for affordable broadband is indicated.
By far most residents who responded to the community needs survey has access to reliable home internet as shown in the graph below.
Figure 14 – Community Need For Internet Reliability
Source: Community Needs Survey
Describe the need for increased competition by having more than one broadband Internet service provider serve the jurisdiction.
According to the FCC there are four active fixed internet providers in Santa Ana. Charter Communications, Hughes Network Systems, LLC, Viasat, Inc., and Space Exploration Technologies Corp. that reach at least 80 percent of residences. There are four active mobile internet providers. The main mobile internet providers are Verizon Communications, Inc., T-Mobile USA, Inc., and AT&T Inc.

MA-65 Hazard Mitigation
Describe the jurisdiction’s increased natural hazard risks associated with climate change.
The Cit of Santa Ana prepared a Hazard Mitigation Plan in 2022. That process found the City faces six main hazards that are considered a likely occurrence. Those hazards are earthquake, flood, climate change, drought, extreme heat, and epidemic/Pandemic/Vector- Borne Diseases.
Describe the vulnerability of housing occupied by low - and moderate-income households to these risks.
Low- and moderate -income residents and special needs populations are especially vulnerable to the risks of climate -related hazards. The residences of low - and moderate- income households are more often in worse condition and thus are more susceptible to external weather conditions such as extreme heat. Likewise, elderly residents are at a greater risk during extreme weather events such as extreme heat events. Over 40percent of resident who responded to the community needs survey identified as extremely or somewhat prepared for a disaster, the remaining population feels unprepared to some degree.

SP-10 Geographic Priorities
Describe the basis for allocating investments geographically within the jurisdiction (or within the EMSA for HOPWA)
Investment in infrastructure improvements and public facilities will be focused primarily in areas with a concentration of at least 51 percent low - and moderate-income population.
Investment in public facilities and services for special needs populations and primarily low- and moderate-income persons will be made throughout the City prioritizing those areas with a higher percentage of disabled residents. Housing assistance (including homebuyer and rehabilitation assistance) will be available to income-qualified households citywide.
The City utilizes HUD regulations for verification of income in accordance with Title 24 Code of Federal Regulations Part 5. Required income documentation may include tax records , income statements, benefit statements, and verification of assets. For those programs that benefit Santa Ana residents only, residency documentation may include a driver’s license, utility bill, and/or lease agreement.

Description
CHAS data shows the most common housing
problem in the City is overcrowding and severe
overcrowding. Analysis of Housing Problems (Table
8) shows this affects 17,065 households with
income at or below 80 percent AMI . Of those
households, 81 percent rent their homes. The
second most common housing problem is housing
cost burden greater than 30 percent of income ,
which impacts 40 percent of households earning at
most 80 percent AMI. Those affected include 12,825
renter and 8,150 owner households.
Extremely low- and low -income households with
one or more housing problem are presumed to be
unstably housed, putting them at risk of falling into
homelessness. There are 33,345
households in
Santa Ana earning up to 50 percent AMI,
representing 42 percent of all households. Within
this income range individuals and families with
children are highly sensitive to adverse events.
The greatest concentrations of unstably housed
households are among renter households with
housing cost burden at or above 50 percent of their
gross household income. Among renters
experiencing severe housing cost burden small -
related households are most impacted, followed by
households that are large related, elderly, and
“other.” Among owners experiencing severe
housing cost burden small -related households are
most impacted followed by elderly, large related,
and “other.” Households in this income range living
in crowded conditions are also unstably housed.
EXHIBIT 1
134
This condition impacts a much smaller, but still
significant, number of households than housing
cost burden does, twenty-five percent of renter
households with incomes at or below 50 percent
AMI are living in crowded homes.
Relative Basis
The development of additional affordable housing
units affordable for low - and moderate -income
households and individuals is a high priority due to
the number of severely cost burdened households.
Increasing the supply of affordable housing
includes the development of rental housing with
long-term affordability covenants and income
targeting. To the extent that resources may be
leveraged for supportive services, such
developments should follow permanent supportive
housing models determined to be a national best -
practice to address homelessness. Based on
responses to the Community Needs survey and data
examined, increasing the supply of affordable
housing and providing rental assistance will be
crucial tools of the City.

Description
The age and condition of Santa Ana’s housing stock
is an important indicator of potential rehabilitation
needs. Housing over 30 years of age can be
presumed to need some form of major
rehabilitation, such as roof replacement, foundation
work and plumbing systems. Housing over 20 years
of age will generally exhibit deficiencies in terms of
paint, weatherization, heating/air -conditioning
systems, hot water heaters and finish plumbing
fixtures. Housing values in Santa Ana have
increased significantly over a relatively short period
of time. Longt ime homeowners, especially the
EXHIBIT 1
135
elderly and disabled, are more likely to have fixed
and limited incomes and may have difficulty
maintaining their homes.
This housing stock in Santa Ana is dated; 80 percent
of housing units were constructed before 1980
according to 2016 -2020 CHAS data. About 15
percent of owner - and renter -occupied housing in
Santa Ana was built 30 to 40 years ago between
1980 and 1999. There are 24,850 households with at
least one member over the age of 62 and 16,790 of
whom have household incomes at or below 80
percent AMI, according to 2016 -2020 CHAS data.
There are approximately 12,148 people aged 18 to
64 with disabilities, according to 2016-2020, ACS 5-
Year estimates. These households may be
presumed to have fixed incomes. It is reasonable to
anticipate a significant number of housing units in
need of repair and a significant number of
households will need financial assistance to
complete those repairs.
Relative Basis
Preservation of the physical and functional integrity
of existing housing units occupied by low - and
moderate-income 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.
Expanding the stock of affordable housing by
supporting the construction of affordable units,
homebuyer and rental assistance programs are also
effective ways to make housing more affordable to
households. Based on responses to the Community
Needs survey and data examined, rehabilitation of
housing currently occupied by households with low
and moderate incomes is an efficient and effective
way to preserve affordable housing.

in certai n facilities as the City continues to
modernize public facilities constructed more than 40
years ago. In the allocation of resources for the
rehabilitation of public facilities, priority shall be
given to facilities that primarily benefit low- income
people or address homeless or special needs
populations, particularly those facilities with
critically needed renovation or demonstrated need
for expansion to accommodate the needs of low -

Relative Basis
The need for public facility and infrastructure
improvements are informed by the results of the
Needs Assessment Survey, input received during
the Community Meeting, and the City’s on-going
assessment of critical infrastructure.

need of repair and a significant number o f
households will need financial assistance to
complete those repairs.
The 2024 PIT Count shows that on January 24, 2024,
throughout Orange County most people
experiencing homelessness were unsheltered . Of
the 7,322 homeless individuals, 57 percent were
unsheltered. Unsheltered chronically, homeless
people accounted for 22 percent of all homeless
individuals. Among those who were reported as
being homeless and unsheltered (4,173 individuals),
49 percent were living with chronic substance
abuse; 30 percent faced severe mental health
issues; and ten percent had experienced domestic
violence.
Relative Basis
Priority Need
The City of Santa Ana considers ending and
preventing homelessness a high priority and will
support activities that help prevent and shorten
periods of homelessness and that provide a
structured path to stable housing for individuals
and families who become homeless.

ameliorate the impacts of poverty. CHAS 2016-2020
data shows 66 percent of households in Santa Ana
have incomes at or below 80 percent AMI (see Table
1). ACS data for the same period shows 13 percent
of the population of Santa Ana is living below the
federal poverty level (FPL), accounting for 43,975
residents. Among these residents 16,437 are
children under the age of 18 and 4,275 are elderly
aged 65 and over.

Relative Basis
Consistent with the results of the Needs
Assessment and Market Analysis sections of this
plan, including the results of the Community Needs
and Stakeholder surveys, the provision of a wide
range of economic development activities meeting
a national objective is a priority needs of the City.
In establishing five-year priorities for assistance, the City has taken several concerns into consideration:
- Those categories of extremely low, low- and moderate-income households most in need of housing and community development assistance;
- Which activities will best meet the needs of those identified households; and - The extent of federal and other resources available to address these needs.
Priority needs were determined on the basis of analytical research and the input received through outreach and consultation; four of the six priority needs are identified as high.
The City will implement projects in each five -year Action Plan that address the Priority Needs. Pursuant to CDBG regulations, projects must meet one of three national objectives set forth by HUD: (1) Benefit low - and moderate- income households, (2) Aid in the elimination/ prevention of slum and blight, or (3) Meet an urgent need (catastrophic events).
Pursuant to HOME regulations, HOME funds are specifically focused on affordable housing activities and may be used to develop and support affordable rental housing and homeownership opportunities for households earning up to 80 percent of the AMI citywide.

(TBRA)
The City may use a portion of its HOME funds to provide TBRA. CHAS data shows the most common housing problem in the City is overcrowding and severe overcrowding. Analysis of Housing Problems (
Table 8) shows this
affects 17,065 households with income at or below 80 percent AMI. Of those households, 81 percent rent their homes. The second most common housing problem is housing cost burden greater than 30 percent of income which impacts 40 percent of households earning at most 80 percent AMI.
Those affected include 12,825 renter and 8,150 owner households.
Extremely low- and low -income households with one or more housing problem are presumed to be unstably housed, putting them at risk of falling into homelessness. There are 33,345 households in Santa Ana earning up to 50 percent AMI, representing 42 percent of all households. Within this income range individuals and families with children are highly sensitive to adverse events.
The greatest concentrations of unstably housed households are among renter households with housing cost burden at or above 50 percent of their gross household income. Among renters experiencing severe housing cost burden small -related households are most i mpacted, followed by households that are large related, elderly, and “other.” Among owners experiencing severe housing cost burden small -related households are most impacted followed by elderly, large related, and “other.” Households in this income range living in crowded conditions are also unstably housed.
This condition impacts a much smaller, but still significant, number of households than housing cost burden does, twenty- five percent of renter households with incomes at or below 50 percent AMI are living in crowded homes.
TBRA for Non-
Homeless Special
Needs
The City may use a portion of its HOME funds to provide TBRA. Included among those eligible to apply for TBRA are special non- homeless special needs populations.

The most common housing problem in the City is overcrowding and severe overcrowding. Analysis of Housing Problem s (Table 8) shows this affects 17,065 households with income at or below 80 percent AMI . Of those households, 81 percent rent their homes. The second most common housing problem is housing cost burden greater than 30 percent of income which impacts 40 percent of households earning at most 80 percent AMI.
Those affected include 12,825 renter and 8,150 owner households.
Based on funding availability and allocations, the City may allocate a portion of the HOME funds to increase the supply of safe, decent, affordable housing for lower -income households (including extremely low -income households, and low- and moderate-income households), such as seniors, those with disabilities, and those experiencing and/ or at risk of experiencing homelessness.

Rehabilitation This housing stock in Santa Ana is dated; 80 percent of housing units were constructed before 1980 according to 2016-2020 CHAS data. This indicates a significant need for rehabilitation. The City will aid rehabilitation of residential housing units. Preservation of the physical and functional integrity of existing housing units occupied by low - and moderate-income households is a cost- effective way to invest limited resources to retain existing housing units that are already affordable to low - and mod erate- income households in the community. Addressing substandard housing conditions through housing preservation activities provide s that all economic segments of the community have the means to ensure that their property meets local standards.
Acquisition,
including
preservation
As the Needs Assessment and Market Analysis in this document have clearly shown, thousands of Santa Ana h ouseholds are crowded, overcrowded, and cost burdened and likely eligible for newly acquired and rehabilitated affordable housing units. This is a relatively cost-effective way to make incremental increases affordable rental and homeownership housing stock. As funding is available to properly support this type of project the City will invest in acquisition rehabilitation.

SP-35 Anticipated Resources
During the five-year period of the Consolidated Plan from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2030, the City of Santa Ana anticipates investing an estimated $2 0,950,890 CDBG, $5,795,310 HOME and $1,886,650 ESG funds (over the 5- year period) to support the goals of this Strategic Plan. The annual allocations are subject to federal appropriations and changes in demographic data used in HUD formulas for each respective program. The City’s Fiscal Year 2025 Action Plan will lay out the use of the annual allocations to address the priority needs and achieve the goals defined in the Strategic Plan.

Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state, and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied.
The City is expected to receive HOME funding which can be leveraged with CDBG funding if used for affordable housing and housing rehabilitation. 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. The threshold conditions are: 1) Fiscal distress; 2) Severe fiscal distress, and 3) Presidentially declared major disasters covered under the Stafford Act. The City was identified by HUD as a fiscally distressed jurisdiction and has been granted a 5 0 percent match reduction for F iscal Year 2023. The determinations for 2024 have not been made public as of January 23, 2025. The City anticipates this designation will continue into the 2025 Consolidated Plan period.
Given the limited size of the CDBG and HOME annual allocations, the City may consider pursuing new Section 108 loans within the five- year Consolidated Plan period to support large-scale public improvements or housing projects.
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.
Federal Resources:
- Continuum of Care (CoC) Program
- HUD Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (HUD-VASH)
- Supportive Housing for the Elderly (Section 202)
- Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities (Section 811) - Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA)

If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan.
Santa Ana will comply with state requirements under AB1486 and AB1255 to inventory and support developers to access and utilize surplus municipal and state land for the construction of affordable housing. If such sites are identified, the City will consider the use of HUD funding or other resources to assist with site preparation and/ or development. At this time, no publicly owned land or property is expected to be used to address the needs.
Discussion
Assuming continued level funding, the City expects to utilize over $ 28,632,850 in CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds during the five-year period beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2030, to achieve the goals of the Strategic Plan.

Describe how the service delivery system including, but not limited to, the services listed above meet the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth)
There are multiple pathways to access the services available in Santa Ana to individuals and households experiencing, or at risk of experiencing, homelessness. The CoC and the recipients of homeless funding from HUD and Homeless Housing, Assistance and Prevention (HHAP) Grant funds from the State of California utilize the Coordinated Entry System (CES) system to match clients to appropriate services.
Describe the strengths and gaps of the service delivery system for special needs population and persons experiencing homelessness, including, but not limited to, the services listed above.
As the seat of Orange County government many public and private resource providers are located in Santa Ana. The City is committed to making a difference by coordinating with County partners, including the CoC, local businesses, community faith groups, and nonprofit partners to meet the needs of residents with special needs and those experiencing or at risk of experiencing homelessness. Despite the many resources available and the contributions of community partners, there is still not enough funding to provide the level of services needed for long- term assistance for clients on fixed or extremely limited incomes. The City supports services for special needs populations and individuals experiencing homelessness with CDBG and ESG funds.
Provide a summary of the strategy for overcoming gaps in the institutional structure and service delivery system for carrying out a strategy to address priority needs.
To address the lack of resources necessary to fully address the needs of special needs populations and persons experiencing homelessness, the City will continue allocating the maximum allowable amount of CDBG funds to public service s. The City will work to leverage its HOME funds, including CHDO Set -Aside and Low Moderate Income Housing Asset (LMIHAF) funds, with other state, federal, and local resources to address its priority needs.

SP-55 Barriers to Affordable Housing
Barriers to Affordable Housing
A barrier to affordable housing is a public policy or nongovernmental condition that constrains the development or rehabilitation of affordable housing, such as land use controls, property taxes, state prevailing wage requirements, environmental protection , cost of land and availability of monetary resources. Barriers to affordable housing differ from impediments to fair housing choice in that barriers are legally permissible, whereas impediments to fair housing choice are typically unlawful.
The City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element includes an identification and prioritization of significant contributing factors that impede fair housing and/or result in disproportionate housing needs. Through discussions with stakeholders and fair housing advocates, community feedback, and the assessment of fair housing included in the Housing Element, the City identified the following fair housing issues:
- Displacement risk
- Lack of safe and sanitary housing
- Housing overcrowding
- Low household incomes
- Exposure to environmental hazards
- Lack of quality education and job training
The pr
imary factor contributing to these housing issues is the limited availability of resources to subsidize housing development to the point that units are affordable to low - and moderate-income households. 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. This was the most significant public policy change impacting affordable housing and residential investment. 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.
Strategy to Remove or Ameliorate the Barriers to Affordable Housing As described in the 2021-2029 Housing Element, the City is taking several actions to remove or ameliorate barriers to affordable housing. These actions are summarized below.
1. Facilitate construction of 723 ADUs between 2021-2029 by publishing preapproved ADU plans and publicizing ADU program through dedicated web page in various languages to facilitate ADU construction.
2. Enforce the City’s inclusionary housing ordinance, known as the Affordable Housing Opportunity & Creation Ordinance (AHOCO), to require eligible housing development projects of five or more units, including condominium conversions, to include at least 15 percent of the units as affordable to low -income households; or EXHIBIT 1
154
10 percent of the units affordable to very low -income households; or 5 percent to extremely low-income households; or a minimum of 10 percent available affordable households with five (5)5 percent to low- income, 3 percent to very low-income, and 2 percent to extremely low -income households, for rental housing. Require 5 percent of the units as affordable to moderate- income households for for -sale housing.
3. Establish guidelines as part of the Comprehensive Zoning Code Update for new housing development projects to include a variety of unit sizes, including units for large families, that are affordable to extremely low -, very low -, and low -income families.
4. Annually monitor the status of at -risk housing projects, specifically the Warwick Square, Highland Manor, and other projects that may come due. Contact owners of properties at risk of conversion within one year of expiration to discuss City’s desire to preserve projects as affordable housing.
5. Assist low -income households with down payment assistance loans of up to $120,000 and moderate-income households with loans of up to $80,000.
6. Create, assist, and support neighborhood associations, especially in R/ECAP and TCAC Census Tracts, to collaborate on projects and sponsor and hold annual events.
7. Complete infrastructure improvements in residential neighborhoods consistent with the City’s Capital Improvement Plan.
8. Through the City’s RFP process for Affordable Housing Development, facilitate and encourage the development in the Transit Zoning Code plan area of varied housing types at a mix of affordability levels, including for lower income households using appropriate incentives, such as awarding bonus points to developers whose projects provide at least 75% or more for the units for extremely low-income families at 30% Area Median Income.
9. Implement the City’s Rent Stabilization and Just Cause Eviction Ordinance for tenants facing housing instability, including ongoing outreach and education, a program monitor system, and a schedule of penalties that may be imposed for noncompliance. Provide tenant protections beyond state mandates.
10. Provide housing assistance payments to eligible households participating in the Housing Choice Voucher Program and adhere to policies and procedures in the federal regulations and the Housing Choice Voucher Program Administrative Plan.
Administer 100 percent of the funding provided to the Housing Authority annually for eligible households. This includes Special Purpose Vouchers including the Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing Program; Mainstream Voucher Program; Foster Youth to Independence Program; and Emergency Housing Voucher Program.
The objectives are to: 1) Utilize 100 percent of the Annual Budget Authority provided by HUD for each CY; 2) Apply for new funding opportunities for additional vouchers; 3) Retain High Performer SEMAP status; 4) Communicate on a regular basis with active landlords by providing information on key program updates.
EXHIBIT 1

11. Contract with a local nonprofit organization (currently Habitat for Humanity) to implement the City’s Residential Rehabilitation Grant Program. Provide grants for the repair and rehabilitation of single- family and mobile homes, prioritizing applicants in R/ECAP and TCAC Census Tracts and low-income households.
12. Enhance local preferences program for residents working and living in Santa Ana who are seeking affordable housing. Explore a right -of-first-refusal ordinance for mobile home parks and publicly supported multifamily residential properties to minimize tenant displacement and preserve affordable housing stock. Evaluate and pursue collective ownership models for mobile home parks as a tool to prevent displacement.

SP-60 Homelessness Strategy
The needs of individuals experiencing homelessness and persons with special needs are complex and require a wide range of specialized services. Numerous agencies are involved in the care of these individuals, providing distinct services such as housing, mental health counseling, employment training, and case management services. The City funds multiple activities to assist individuals experiencing homelessness and other special needs populations. Overall, these services address the high priority of reducing homelessness and the threat of becoming homeless, as well as providing necessary supportive services.
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
Santa Ana will continue to invest HUD and non- HUD funding to engage individuals and households experiencing homelessness, assessing their needs, and connecting them to appropriate resources. street outreach and emergency shelter. In previous years ESG has supported private providers of street outreach and emergency shelter. The City anticipated continuing these efforts during the next five years.
The Santa Ana Police Department (SAPD) implements proactive policing and engagement with residents experiencing unsheltered homelessness. The Quality of Life Team (QOLT) comprises members from various City Departments, including Public Works, the Police Department, Code Enforcement, Parks and Recreation, the Community Development Agency, Homeless Services, and the City’s street outreach and engagement team. The team works collaboratively to implement a coordinated response to community service requests related to the impacts of homelessness. The SAPD’s Homeless Evaluation Assessment Response Team (HEART) provides immediate assistance, long-term solutions, and connections to services such as shelter, mental health support, and housing programs.
Other City programs that reach out to unsheltered homeless individuals are Coordinated Entry and Family Reunification, Psychological Emergency Response Team (PERT), and the Santa Ana Multi-Disciplinary Response Team (SMART). The Coordinated Entry and Family Reunification program, which is privately funded, assesses the needs of residents and connects them to the appropriate resources. Resources may include emergency shelter, transitional or permanent supportive housing, and reconnecting with social networks.
PERT is a partnership with the Orange County Health Care Agency that pairs mental health clinicians with officers to assist individuals with mental health or substance abuse issues.
SMART is a contracted service provided by CityNet. SMART addresses non- emergent situations with a focus on connecting unhoused individuals to shelter, critical services, and mental health and medical treatment.

Addressing the emergency and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The 2024 PIT Count recorded 3,149 sheltered and 4,173 unsheltered individuals experiencing homelessness. Of the sheltered and homeless population 80 percent were residing in emergency shelter and 20 percent in transitional housing. The 2024 Housing Inventory Count reported 645 emergency shelter beds and 624 transitional housing beds for household with adults and children, 2,365 emergency shelter beds and 217 transitional housing beds for households with only adults.
The Santa Ana Navigation Center opened in June 2022 as a 24 -hour homeless shelter serving men, women, and families with minor children. The shelter has 200 beds in five dormitories and family rooms, including full bathroom facilities, a commercial kitchen, a children's playroom, and more. In addition to the Navigation Cetner the City may directing ESG funds to support private homeless service providers’ emergency shelter efforts.
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.
To achieve housing stability whether individuals and families need access to housing which they can reasonably afford. The City anticipates directing ESG resources to to funding rapid rehousing and homelessness prevention activities. Furthermore, the City may leverage CDBG, HOME, PLHA and other funds to expand the supply of affordable housing.
Help low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low -income individuals and families who are likely to become homeless after being discharged from a publicly funded institution or system of care, or who are receiving a ssistance from public and private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs.
The City approaches assisting low -income individuals and families, especially those existing a publicly funded institution, to avoid homelessness from multiple angles. SAHA administers Mainstream 5, VASH, Foster Youth to Independence, and Emergency Housing Vouchers. These may assist individuals and households exiting hospitals, shelters, foster care, and other publicly funded institutions to secure stable housing. The Coordinated Entry and Family Reunification Program described above is another resource the City provides.
The City anticipates directing ESG resources to In addition to funding rapid rehousing and homelessness prevention activities. Furthermore, the City may leverage CDBG, HOME, PLHA, HOME-ARP, and other funds to expand the supply of affordable housing.

SP-65 Lead based paint Hazards
Actions to address LBP hazards and increase access to housing without LBP hazards.
The Residential Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 (Title X) emphasizes prevention of childhood lead poisoning through housing-based approaches. This strategy requires the City to implement programs that protect children living in older housing from lead hazards.
The housing stock in Santa Ana is dated; 80 percent of housing units were constructed before 1980 according to 2016-2020 CHAS data. Units constructed prior to January 1, 1978, are presumed to have the potential to contain lead- based paint (LBP). In these units, the best way to have reasonable assurance that lead-based paint hazards are not present is to have the painted surfaces tested.
To reduce lead-based paint hazards, the City takes the following actions:
- Include lead testing and abatement procedures, as required, in all residential rehabilitation activities for units built prior to January 1, 1978. - Educate residents on the health hazards of lead-based paint through brochures and encourage screening children for elevated blood-lead levels. - Disseminate brochures about lead hazards through the City’s residential rehabilitation activities.
How are the actions listed above related to the extent of lead poisoning and hazards?
Over time, through testing and abatement, monitoring of public health data, and through public education, the public will have greater awareness of the hazards of lead-based paint to children. This will prompt homeowners, landlords, and parents of young children , to proactively address unsafe housing conditions in pre -1978 units where children may potentially be exposed to lead-based paint hazards.
How are the actions listed above integrated into housing policies and procedures?
In accordance with federal regulation, the City of Santa Ana has established policies regarding the identification of LBP hazards. Housing built prior to 1978 must undergo lead- based paint testing prior to receiving funding for rehabilitation. If deteriorated lead-based paint surfaces are found, they must be stabilized during the rehabilitation of the property.
As required, abatement must be performed by a certified lead -based paint assessor prior to the issuance of the Notice of Completion. The City will continue to maintain policies and procedures to increase access to housing without LBP hazards. CDBG and HOME funding is not provided until it is determined properties are free of LBP hazards.

SP-70 Anti-Poverty Strategy
Jurisdiction Goals, Programs and Policies for reducing the number of Poverty - Level Families.
Poverty continues to be a significant challenge in Santa Ana. According to the 2016- 2020 ACS,13 percent of residents live below the FPL, among those are 16,437 children under the age of 18 and 4,275 elderly aged 65 and over. To meaningfully address this challenge, each of the goals included in the Strategic Plan supports activities to promote the availability of affordable housing and the provision of essential services that directly benefit low - and moderate-income residents. In the implementation of the Strategic Plan, the City will prioritize funding for activities that most effectively address these goals over the next five years. This strategy will emphasize using CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds to help individuals and families rise out of poverty to long-term self-sufficiency.
The Consolidated Plan goals strive to reduce the number of poverty -level families. Those goals are:
- Affordable housing development, maintenance, and preservation - Code enforcement
- Public services programs
- Homeless services and facilities
- Economic development programs
- Public facilities and infrastructure improvements
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, offer a pathway out of poverty for families who are ready to pursue employment and educational opportunities. 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.
How are the Jurisdiction poverty reducing goals, programs, and policies coordinated with this affordable housing plan?
The goals of this Strategic Plan are aligned to benefit low- and moderate-income residents to reduce the number of poverty-level families. For example, activities completed under the affordable housing development, maintenance, and preservation goal will increase the housing stock accessible to extremely low - and low-income households transitioning out or at risk of homelessness. Implementation of this goal may reduce a household housing cost burden thereby increasing disposable income and enabling opportunity to pursue previously inaccessible choices.

SP-80 Monitoring
Describe the standards and procedures that the jurisdiction will use to monitor activities carried out in furtherance of the plan and will use to ensure long -term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements To ensure that HUD funds are used efficiently and in compliance with applicable regulations, the City provides technical assistance to all subrecipients at the beginning of each program year and monitors subrecipients throughout the program year.
Technical Assistance
To enhance compliance, the City provides an annual Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) workshop to review Consolidated Plan goals, program requirements and available resources. Subsequent to the approval of the Annual Action Plan, a mandatory subrecipient workshop is held to review program regulations in detail, provide useful forms and resources for documenting compliance, and review the compliance procedures and requirements. Individualized technical assistance is provided on an as-needed basis.
Activity Monitoring
All activities are monitored, beginning with a detailed review upon receipt of an application to determine eligibility, conformance with a National Objective and conformance with a Plan goal. This review also examines the proposed use of funds, eligibility of the service area, eligibility of the intended beneficiaries and likelihood of compliance with other federal requirements. Subrecipients are required to submit an audit and other documentation to establish their capacity, and any findings noted in the audit are reviewed with the applicant.
Eligible applications are then considered for funding. Once funded, desk monitoring includes ongoing review of required quarterly performance reports. For CDBG public service activities, an on- site monitoring is conducted once every two (2) years, or more frequently as needed to ensure compliance. These reviews include both a fiscal and programmatic review of the subrecipient’s activities. The reviews determine if the subrecipient is complying with the program regulations and City contract. Areas routinely reviewed include overall administration, financial systems, appropriateness of program expenditures, program delivery, client eligibility determination and documentation, reporting systems, and achievement toward achieving contractual goals. Following the monitoring visit, a written report is provided delineating the results of the review and any findings of non -compliance and the required corrective action. Subrecipients normally have 30 days to provide the City with corrective actions taken to address any noted findings.
Individualized technical assistance is provided, as noted above, as soon as compliance concerns are identified. For CDBG capital projects, monitoring also includes compliance with regulatory agreement requirements

Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied.
The extent of need in Santa Ana far exceeds the available funding from CDBG, HOME, and ESG. Most activities into which these funds are invested will leverage a variety of additional sources including, but not limited to, public and private grants, capital development and general funds, public financing, and private donations. The City has been awarded HUD HOME American Rescue Plan (ARP) and state Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds to further address extremely low - and low -income housing needs including the needs of residents experiencing and at risk of experiencing homelessness. The City has Low- and Moderate- Income Housing Asset Funds (LMIHAF) which may be used to supplement homeless services provided to residents. The City encourages the use of Low- Income Housing Tax Credits to fund construction, substantial rehabilitation, or acquisition or affordable housing.
The HOME program requires a 25 percent match based on fund expenditure, unless a jurisdiction meets a threshold 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 was identified by HUD as a fiscally distressed jurisdiction and has been granted a 50 percent match reduction for fiscal year 2023, as of the preparation of this Action Plan neither the fiscal year 2024 or 2025 reductions have been published. The City expects the 2023 designation will continue in fiscal year 2025.
ESG requires a 100 percent match.
If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan.
The City will not use any publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction to address the needs identified in this plan.
Discussion
The City shares overall responsibility for meeting the priority needs identified in the Strategic Plan with many other organizations and is solely responsible for using CPD entitlement funds to address the needs of low- and moderate-income residents.

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved needs.
As grant resources become increasingly scarce, it is important for the City to determine areas and population segments with the greatest level of need for a particular program or activity and to be able to invest federal, state, and local resources in high leverage opportunities where data suggests that the City will be able to maximize the impact of every dollar.
The 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan is a roadmap to guide the City’s housing, community, and economic development investments during the next five years. All investments of HUD funding are used to address the priority needs listed in the City’s five-year Consolidated Plan.
The limited funding resources continue to provide challenges to fully address the level of need identified in the Consolidated Plan.

Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low - income and minority concentration) where assistance will be directed.
The City has not established specific target areas in which to focus the investment of CDBG funds. For the 2025 Program Year, the City will invest 100 percent of non- administrative funds to directly benefit low -and moderate- income individuals throughout the City.
Infrastructure improvements and public facilities will be focused on areas with a concentration of residents with low- and moderate-incomes or sites that serve a presumed group. Housing assistance will be made available to income -qualified househol ds throughout the City.
Table 53 - Geographic Distribution
Target Area Percentage of Funds
Citywide 100%
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically HUD allows CDBG grantees to implement certain activities , such as initial construction or expansion of community facilities and infrastructure that benefit certain neighborhoods, but not the entire City, provided the service area for the facility or infrastructure is primarily residential, and where at least 51 percent of residents are low- and moderate-income.
It is the City’s intent to fund activities in the areas and for the populations most directly affected by the needs of low-income residents and those with other special needs. Where appropriate the Annual Action Plan will direct investment to an area benefit neighborhood.
The area benefit category is the most used national objective for activities benefiting a residential neighborhood. An area benefit activity is one that benefits all residents, where at least 51 percent are low- and moderate-income. Public infrastructure improvements are an area benefit activity when they are in a predominantly low - and moderate -income neighborhood.

SAHA is a Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) only entity. It administers tenant - and project- based and special purpose vouchers. There are 10 project -based voucher sites. Special purpose vouchers include Mainstream Five- Year (MS5) and Veteran Affairs Supportive Housing. Additionally, SAHA administers Foster Youth to Independence and Emergency Housing Vouchers. SAHA’s mission is to “provide affordable housing for the most vulnerable members of our community to use as a platform to obtain self -sufficiency and independence from our assistance.”
Actions planned during the next year to address the needs of public housing.
Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership.
The SAHA administers the FSS program. This is a voulntary program available to families in recipet of a HCV program to households become economic independent through financial literacy. The Housing Authority also support a resident adviosry board.

AP- 65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities
The City of Santa Ana places a high priority on assisting households experiencing or at risk of experiencing homelessness, and households with other non -homeless special needs.
According to the results of the January 2024, PIT Count in approximately7,322 individuals were experiencing homelessness . Analysis of available data and consultation with organizations providing services for special needs populations revealed a need for a range of services including but not limited to those concerned with disabled adults. The City strives to meet these needs through the access to public housing, expanded access to affordable housing, and public services and services specifically for individuals and households experiencing and at risk of experiencing homelessness.
Describe the jurisdiction’s one -year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs.
Preventing and ending homelessness is a HUD priority addressed nationally through coordination of regional strategies and carried out locally by government agencies and a wide variety of community -based organizations and faith- based groups. Consistent with this approach, the City supports the CoC and its member organizations that address homelessness. In alignment with this strategy, the City established the homeless services goal. The street outreach aspects of that goal will be implemented through the activities of the Interval Housing, Covenant House, and SAPD HEART program Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
The City established the homeless services goal to address the need to increase access to and the supply of homeless services and facilities. The emergency shelter aspects of that goal will be implemented through the activities of the Interval Housing, Covenant House, and SAPD HEART program.
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
In alignment with the CoC strategy, the City established the homeless services goal. The rapid rehousing and homelessness prevention aspects of that goal will be implemented through the activities of the Volunteers of America Los Angeles, and WISEPlace.
EXHIBIT 1
176
Helping low -income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low -income individuals and families and those who are:
being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs.
The County in collaboration with the CoC maintains Discharge Coordination Policies for the systems of care it administers, such as discharge from the Corrections, Foster Care, and the Mental Health systems. The City supports the CoC’s advocacy for development of consistent policy implementation by hospital administrators for best practices, such as recuperative care, and co- location of health services near affordable housing developments.
During the program year 2025 the City will direct ESG funds to Volunteers of America Los Angeles and WISEPlace to provide rapid rehousing, and homelessness prevention services to qualified households.

AP- 75 Barriers to Affordable Housing
A barrier to affordable housing is a public policy or nongovernmental condition that constrains the development or rehabilitation of affordable housing, such as land use controls, property taxes, state prevailing wage requirements, environmental protection , cost of land and availability of monetary resources. Barriers to affordable housing differ from impediments to fair housing choice in that barriers are typically lawful and impediments to fair housing choice are usually unlawful.
The City’s
2021-2029 Housing Element includes an identification and prioritization of significant contributing factors that impede fair housing and/or result in disproportionate housing needs. Through discussions with stakeholders and fair housing advocates, community feedback, and the assessment of fair housing included in the Housing Element, the City identified the following fair housing issues:
- Displacement risk
- Lack of safe and sanitary housing
- Housing overcrowding
- Low household incomes
- Exposure to environmental hazards
- Lack of quality education and job training
The pr
imary factor contributing to these housing issues is the limited availability of resources to subsidize housing development to the point that units are affordable to low - and moderate-income households. 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. This was the most significant public policy change impacting affordable housing and residential investment. While there are m echanisms whereby certain affordable housing assets tied to the former Redevelopment Agencies may be utilized today, these resources are finite and scarce.
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.
As described in the 2021-2029 Housing Element, the City is taking several actions to address the contributing factors to fair housing issues and affirmatively further fair housing throughout the city. These actions are summarized below.
To address the housing overpayment/burden and the risk of displacement or homelessness that new development and overpaying for housing may cause, the City plans to pursue the following strategies:
EXHIBIT 1
178
Housing Stabilization. Implement the rent stabilization and just cause eviction ordinances to preserve affordable housing through regulating rent increases and establishing just cause eviction regulations.
- Housing Opportunity Ordinance. Require eligible rental and ownership housing projects to include affordable units.
- Housing Priority. Administer local preference for affordable housing created under the AHOCO or with City funding.
- Community Land Trusts and Collective Ownership. Partner with community-based organizations to support a community land trust program and pursue collective ownership models to promote ownership options and opportunities. - Shelters and Support Services. Provide funding for creation and/or the provision of shelters, permanent supportive housing, and services for those experiencing homelessness or that are at risk of becoming homeless.
To address the issues of safe and sanitary housing, the City plans to pursue the following strategies:
- Tenant Protections. Provide resources to residential tenants regarding landlord - tenant laws and responsibilities to ensure units are being maintained and up to code, and if not, tenants are aware of their rights and options for recourse. - Code Enforcement.

To address Environmental Justice (EJ) issues, the City underwent an extensive multiyear engagement effort as part of its comprehensive General Plan update, with the last year focusing on engaging EJ communities and listening to their experiences and issues regarding environmental health and quality of life. The City has developed over 75 policies and over 70 programs that are informed by the feedback received from the community and that address pollution and population variables in the CalEnviroScreen model that are in the upper quartile rank in the identified EJ areas. With the completion of the General Plan, the City will begin the process of addressing the disproportionate environmental burden that residents in these communities have experienced.
To address educational and economic opportunity barriers that lead to housing and affordability issues, the City is including an Economic Prosperity Element in the updated General Plan. The element includes programs for workforce development, small business creation and retention, and incentives to hire local. In addition, the updated General Plan includes an element called the Community Element. The Community Element includes numerous policies and programs to directly address the education and jobs training issue.
For example, there are policies and programs to support parent participation programs to increase high school and college graduation rates, expanding access to libraries and learning centers, promoting skill - based education programs, and investing in lifelong learning programs.

Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families.
The implementation of CDBG, HOME, and ESG activities meeting the goals established in the Strategic Plan and this Annual Action Plan will help reduce the number of poverty-level families by supporting:
- Affordable housing development, maintenance, and preservation - Code enforcement
- Public service programs
- Homeless services and facilities

- Planning, administration and fair housing
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 pathways 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.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure.
The institutional delivery system in Santa Ana is highly functioning and collaborative, particularly the relationship between local government and the nonprofit sector , which is comprised of a network of capable organizations that are delivering a full range of services to residents.

HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) Reference 24 CFR 91.220(l)(2)
1. A description of other forms of investment being used beyond those identified in Section 92.205 is as follows:
The City of Santa Ana does not use HOME funds in any other manner other than those described in Section 92.205(b).
2. 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 City incorporates a recapture requirement into written agreements and long -term affordability covenants for homebuyer assistance activities administered by the City as EXHIBIT 1
183
required by 24 CFR 92.254. For any homebuyer assistance activity implemented by subrecipients or CHDOs, this recapture requirement shall also be used.
HOME affordability requirements are imposed based on the amount of direct HOME subsidy pursuant to HUD regulations as follows:
Assistance under $25,000: 5-year affordability period
Assistance between $25,000 - $50,000: 10-year affordability period Assistance over $50,000: 15-year affordability period
The amount subject to recapture is the direct HOME subsidy received by the homebuyer.
Direct HOME subsidy includes the HOME investment that enabled the homebuyer to purchase the property. This includes down payment assistance, closing costs, or other HOME assistance provided directly to the homebuyer or the difference between the fair market value of the property (as determined by appraisal) and a reduced sales price, but excludes any HOME assistance provided to develop the unit.
The recapture provision ensures that the entire amount of the City's direct HOME subsidy to homebuyers is recaptured if the housing does not continue to be the principal residence of the family for the duration of the applicable period of affordability (e.g., the home is sold, the home is foreclosed, the assisted owner is no longer residing in the assisted residence, or for any other breach of the agreement with the City ). The HOME -assisted homebuyer may sell their unit at any time during the period of affordability, to any willing buyer, and at the price the market will bear. The recapture provision requires that the City’s direct HOME subsidy and any interest due under the HOME loan (that has not previously been repaid) is returned to the City from net proceeds , subject to the limitation that if there are no net proceeds or the net proceeds are insufficient to repay the HOME investment due, the City may only recapture the net proceeds, if any. Net proceeds are defined as the sales price minus superior loan repayment (other than HOME funds), and any closing costs.
In the event of a mortgage default, a provision in the written agreement and long -term affordability covenant stipulates that the City has the right of first refusal before foreclosure and may use additional HOME funds or other resources to acquire the housing in order to preserve the housing’s affordability. The home then will be resold to an eligible buyer with a new long-term affordability covenant that imposes a period of affordability in accordance with the total HOME investment, including the direct homebuyer assistance provided to the homebuyer at the initial sale, plus any additional HOME funds invested to purchase the property out of foreclosure.
Recaptured funds will be used for any HOME eligible activity. If the funds were provided as a grant or zero interest loan, then the recaptured funds will be receipted into IDIS and treated like program income, except that no portion of the funds will be used for administrative costs. If the recaptured funds were pr ovided as an interest -bearing loan, EXHIBIT 1
184
then the funds will be receipted (principal and interest) into IDIS as program income. Up to ten percent of the program income may be used for administrative costs. These recaptured funds are identified in the City’s accounting system by a unique recaptured revenue object number. Any recaptured funds will be used by the City before committing HOME funds from the City’s line of credit.
When the City uses a resale restriction, the City allows property sales to eligible income households, provided the sales price does not exceed an affordable housing cost to the proposed transferee ("Permitted Transfers"). If a homebuyer wishes to transfer the property during the affordability period, they must notify the City beforehand by submitting a Notice of Intent to Transfer. This notice should include the identity of the proposed transferee, their household income, and the proposed sales price so that the City may determine that the homebuyer’s household income and the sales price meet the affordable housing cost criteria.
The term of the period of affordability is determined according to the amount of HOME funds invested (see chart above under Recapture) and a long -term affordability covenant will be recorded against the property in the County real estate records. The covenant will impose a resale formula that provides a fair return on investment (including the homeowner’s investment and cost of capital improvements) and ensure the housing wi ll remain affordable to a reasonable range of low-income homebuyers.
3. 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
