Executive Summary
AP-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
Introduction
The Community Development Block (CDBG) program is authorized by the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, which provides eligible entitlement communities with annual grants. The annual grants must be used to provide decent housing, suitable living environments, and expanded economic opportunities, primarily for low - and moderate-income persons. The City of Santa Clarita (City) has been receiving entitlement funds since Fiscal Year (FY) 1991-1992 and became a Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) participating jurisdiction in FY 2020-2021. On April 11, 2026, the City received notification from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) regarding the allocation amount s for FY 2026-2027 which are $1,418,917 in CDBG Entitlement Funds, and $472,514 in HOME funds.

Substantial Amendment: In both the 2024-25 and 2025-26 Annual Action Plans, the City allocated funds to the Newhall Community Center Improvement Project. This Project was planned to carry out r epairs and improvements of the 23- year old Newhall Community Center to retain the ability to serve the low -and moderate-income community, including but not limited to playground and facility improvements. However, upon initiation of the NEPA environmental process, the activity was found to be ineligible for federal funding due to FEMA floodway regulations. The City therefore intends to reallocate these funds to the Creekview Park Improvements project.

The previously allocated funding by fiscal year for the Newhall Community Center Project was as follows:
2024-2025: $748,323, with $4,021 spent on environmental review, leaving a balance of $744,302 2025-2026: $700,129
Total available for reallocation: $1,444,431
In 2026-27, the City proposes to reallocate these $1,444,431 unspent carryover funds to the Creekview Park Project or another public facilities project if there are any eligibility barriers with the Creekview project . The proposed scope of the Creekview Park project includes rehabilitation and improvements including but not limited to the playground, recreational amenities, and park facility.

The City adopted its FY 2024 -2028 Consolidated Plan (Con Plan) in 2024 as required to receive federal CDBG funds from HUD. The Con Plan addresses the City's low - and moderate- income housing and Annual Action Plan

2 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
community development needs and sets forth a strategic plan of five- year goals, specific objectives, annual goals, and benchmarks for measuring progress.

This is the third Action Plan of the FY 2024-2028 Con Plan for the City. It describes the resources, programs, activities, and actions the City will take during FY 2026- 2027 to implement the strategic plan found in the 2024-2028 Con Plan. The FY 2024-2028 Con Plan for the City set forth the following priorities:
• Improve, Maintain, and Expand Affordable Housing
• Improve and Expand Public Facilities and Infrastructure in Lower Income Areas • Provide Services Addressing Homelessness and Homelessness Prevention • Provide Supportive Human Services
• Address the Impact of Covid-19 on Lower Income Residents Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan The City plans to use 20% of the FY 2026-2027 e ntitlement allocation for Administration and Planning, including funding a contract with the Housing Rights Center to provide residents with fair housing services.

The City will continue to fund Supportive Human Services to the greatest extent possible subject to the Public Services cap of 15% of the FY 2026-2027 allocation. The Handyworker Program will be funded to Improve, Maintain, and Expand Affordable Housing, and the remaining funds will be used to Improve and Expand Facilities and Infrastructure. The City will continue to use funds provided through the CARES Act (CDBG - CV) to Provide Timely Assistance to Those Impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic.

The City incorporated Performance Measure Objectives and Outcomes in accordance with the Federal Register Notice dated March 7, 2006, which requires Performance Measure Objectives and Outcomes to be associated with each activity:

Activities will meet one of the following:
• Decent Housing (DH)
• A Suitable Living Environment (SL)

Introduction
The City conducted outreach with non- profit agencies, affordable housing providers, and government agencies as part of the development of this Action Plan. The City reached out to over 200 non- profit and government agencies, and consulted with them regarding the needs of the low - and moderate- income community.

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(l))
The City works closely with public, private, and nonprofit partners regarding health, mental health, and social service provision. As part of their day -to-day operations, City staff members across the organization work with these agencies, increasing coordination through formal and informal collaborative efforts to serve City low- and moderate-income residents and refer to partner agencies when the individuals’ needs exceed the City’s response capacity. These efforts include working with the City’s Santa Clarita Community Task Force on Homelessness (Homeless Task Force), the San Fernando Valley Council of Governments (SFVCOG), L.A. Family Housing, and other partner agencies. The Homeless Task Force’s actions are detailed in the following section. The City also provides dedicated financial support to local nonprofit agencies.

In a further effort to enhance multi-organizational coordination, the City created a homeless coordinator/intern position, dedicated to facilitating the Homeless Task Force and increasing communication amongst the various local homeless service providers.

Actions that the City will continue to undertake to enhance coordination between public and private housing, health, and social service agencies include:
• Coordinating with the Los Angeles County Development Authority to provide information about Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
• Coordinating with the County of Los Angeles Health Department, Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPPP) to provide information about Lead-Based Paint (LBP) hazards. • Using CDBG funds to contract with The Housing Rights Center to provide fair housing services and landlord/tenant complaint and mediation services to the residents of the City. • Working with local service providers funded by the Los Angeles Homeless Service Agency (LAHSA) to provide homeless shelter and services.

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.

Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal-setting The City encourages citizens to par ticipate in the development of the FY 2026-2027 Action Plan and the proposed use of housing and community development funds. Residents, public agencies, and other interested parties are given the opportunity to receive information and review and submit comments on proposed activities.

Community Needs Assessment: In preparation for the development of the FY 2026-2027 Action Plan, the City undertook a Community Needs Assessment (CNA) process. The CNA was conducted using an on- line survey tool, which was available from September 22, 2025 to November 17, 2025. Notice was sent to approximately 40 local agencies requesting that they complete the survey and distribute it to their clients.

City staff also participated in direct outreach with residents at several City-hosted events, as well as provided the survey link via email to over 1,000 participants of City Recreational programs. A total of 314 individuals responded to the survey. Five percent were seniors, 2 2 percent were renters and 66 percent were homeowners. The results of the CNA w ere presented to the Santa Clarita City Council in a Public Hearing on February 10, 2026.

Applications for funding: The City used an open and objective process for the award of FY 2026-2027 CDBG funding for subrecipient grants. For the HOME funds, the Cit y will utilize a separate NOFA process once a sufficient amount of HOME funds are available through multiple years of allocation. For the FY 2026- 2027 funding process, the City took the following actions:
• Notified over 200 local-serving non-profit organizations by email of the availability of grant funds and funding opportunity meetings.
• Formed a five- member int er-departmental committee who evaluated, scored, and ranked the proposals submitted.
• Reviewed and scored Risk Assessment Questionnaires to determine the level of risk per CFR 200.331(b)(c).
• Checked debarment status through the System for Award Management (SAM) website. • Completed a CDBG Activity Type and Eligibility Determination form for all funding requests, ensuring that the proposed program/activities were eligible, met a HUD National Objective, addressed a Consolidated Plan priority, and met a current community need.

The City received 22 applications for CDBG Entitlement funds: 22 for Public Service funds and one for Capital funds. Of these, the City recommended seven of the Public Service applications and one of the Capital Annual Action Plan

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
applications for funding. Thirteen of the applications received proposed programs to address the impacts of the COVID-19. The City recommended twelve for funding with available CDBG-CV funds.

The proposals recommended for funding were those which scored the highest based on addressing a Consolidated Plan priority and a current community need, meeting a HUD National Objective, having clear and adequate goals and objectives, and serving residents of the City. Those proposals demonstrated the proposers’ ability to meet the participant eligibility criteria and CDBG Program and reporting compliance.

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 will use CDBG funds to leverage funds from other sources, including:
• Other grant and private funds used by the CDBG subrecipients to operate the same programs for which they received CDBG funds. • HOME and LACAHSA funds may be used with CDBG funds in the development of affordable housing. • City general funds which are allocated to public facilities improvements which are partially funded by CDBG The City intends to leverage all available funds to the maximum extent feasible in order to deliver high-quality, creative, and efficient housing programs, neighborhood improvement programs, supportive services and economic development programs. The City will continue to pursue all other opportunities to obtain additional funding through other federal, state and local funding sources which can help leverage internal resources.

If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan
The City does not own any land which would be appropriate to use in addressing the needs identified in the plan.

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved needs The City will fund high priorities in FY 2026-2027. These were identified through the public outreach process and evaluation of past and present unmet needs in the community. The greatest obstacle to meeting underserved needs is the lack of funding. The groups with the greatest underserved needs identified in the Con Plan include the homeless, those at -risk of homelessness, the disabled, female- headed households, and very low-income families.

The City allocates the maximum allowable funds (15 percent of the Entitlement allocation) to public services each year. Despite this limited funding, the City is serving those groups with the greatest underserved needs in FY 2026-2027. The City is a relatively new HOME Participating Jurisdiction and must bank HOME funds until an adequate level can be accumulated to pursue an affordable housing project with an affordable housing developer or Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO).

The City believes that the needs of the low - and moderate-income community exist Citywide. There is no plan to allocate FY 2026- 2027 CDBG funds geographically, however, some subrecipients may locate their offices and service locations in areas most accessible to low - and moderate-income neighborhoods to be accessible to their clients living in those areas. The City has not determined the way in which HOME funds will be used to provide affordable housing and will consider whether a geographic priority is appropriate at the time a plan is formulated.

Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically In the City of Santa Clarita, areas of low-income and minority concentration tend to be smaller, pocket areas spread out throughout the City. The City believes that making Public Services, the Property Rehabilitation Program, and the Handyworker Program available Citywide is the best way to ensure the largest number of eligible residents are able to access the services. As noted above, a HOME Project has not yet been identified. When it is, the City will evaluate the effectiveness of targeting specific areas for those activities.

Introduction
Actions planned during the next year to address the needs of public housing Orchard Arms is the only public housing located in the City. It is owned by the County of Los Angeles and is managed by the Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA) . This 183‐unit apartment project serves the low‐income elderly. Elevators and covered pathways between buildings were added in the past couple of years to improve accessibility. The units are in good condition, and there are no substandard units or rehabilitation needs at the facility.

Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership
LACDA encourages the participation of public housing residents through Resident Councils. The role of a Resident Council is to improve the quality of life and residential satisfaction in self-help initiatives to enable residents to create a positive living environment for individuals and families living in public housing. Orchard Arms has an active Resident Council.

If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be provided or other assistance
To the extent of the City’s knowledge, LACDA is not designated as a troubled PHA.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i) Introduction
The Los Angeles Homeless Service Authority (LAHSA), a Joint Powers Authority (JPA), is the lead agency in the Los Angeles Continuum of Care and coordinates funds for programs providing shelter, housing, and services to homeless persons in Los Angeles County. LAHSA partners with the County to integrate services and housing opportunities to ensure a wide distribution of service and housing options throughout the Los Angeles Continuum of Care. The City is located in the Serv ice Planning Area 2 (SPA2) and will continue to collaborate with LAHSA and other local agencies in providing services for homeless persons.

The City has updated the Community Plan to Address Homelessness . This document lays out concrete policies to confront the challenges of a growing unhoused population. The City designed the plan to align local resources, both in the non- profit and private sectors, with Los Angeles County investments. The plan facilitates strategic planning sessions among local stakeholders and led to the creation of the Community Task Force on Homelessness (Task Force) - a city-led committee dedicated to streamlining communication, enhancing information sharing, and coordinating projects.

The Task Force is comprised of service providers, government agencies, faith- based organizations, and schools - each member participates in one of the four Task Force sub-committees: 1) Case Management, 2) Funding, 3) Housing, and 4) Prevention. The Task Force meets quarterly to coordinate action-items related to the plan's priorities including increasing affordable housing options, enhancing mental health services, and streamlining information sharing and opportunities for collaboration.

Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including:

Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
The City uses CDBG Entitlement funds to support various programs aimed at assisting the homeless and those at-risk of homelessness. Listed below are the agencies funded by the City using Entitlement funds in FY 2026- 2027 to specifically address homelessness. Both agencies reach out to the homeless in the community and provide services based on an assessment of their individual needs.

CDBG Entitlement
• $39,046 to Family Promise of Santa Clarita Valley for Low/Mod Income Household Support services to families who are low-and moderate-income.
• $39,666 to Child & Family Center for Domestic Violence Shelter services to survivors of domestic

violence and their children fleeing their homes.

The City continues to use CDBG-CV funds to assist those who are homeless or at-risk of homelessness due to the impacts of the pandemic. The City is funding three programs to address homelessness and special needs in FY 2026-27 with CDBG-CV funds.

CDBG-CV
• $59,920 to Bridge to Home to provide Homeless Intake services for entry to their homeless shelter. • $40,000 t o Family Promise of Santa Clarita Valley to provide services to families who became homeless due to the impacts of COVID-19.
• $40,000 to Single Mothers Outreach to provide rental assistance to those impacted by COVID-19. • $50,000 to Salvation Army to provide rent and utility assistance to families and individuals affected by COVID-19.
• $30,000 to Finally Family Homes to operate the Oasis Resource Center for low- income youth who are at risk of homelessness or aging out of foster care and impacted by COVID 19.

Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The year-round homeless shelter operated by Bridge To Home (BTH) is the only homeless shelter in the Santa Clarita Valley. In prior years, the City purchased an adjacent piece of property using non-CDBG funds and transferred ownership of this property to BTH. This new land provided enough space for BTH to construct an expanded permanent year -round shelter. BTH also secured additional funding from the County for the construction. The new shelter opened its doors in the summer of 2024, which includes 69 individual shelter beds and 8 family units which accommodate a family of 4 in each unit. In FY 2026-27, the City will fund BTH to address homelessness with CDBG Entitlement and CDBG-CV funds.

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 FY 2026-27, the City will fund two programs for Family Promise of Santa Clarita Valley: one supported by Entitlement funds and one supported by CDBG -CV funds. Collectively, these programs will provide a wide variety of services to homeless families, including transitional housing which provides stability and the opportunity to address issues related to employment, mental and physical health, and substance abuse with

Annual Action Plan

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
the goal of moving participants on to permanent housing. BTH also assists the homeless make the transition to stable housing through extensive case management, referrals, and housing placement assistance.

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.

In addition to the homeless services provided by the Bridge To Home and Family Promise programs detailed above, in FY 2026-27, the City will fund Single Mothers Outreach and Salvation Army with CDBG- CV funds to provide short-term emergency rental assistance to households at risk of homelessness due to the impacts of COVID-19. In addition, while not direct homeless service providers, the City will fund the agencies below to address some of the critical issues that lead to homelessness:
• Fostering Youth Independence will provide case management, support services, life skills training, and housing assistance to foster youth and former foster youth with the goal of helping them obtain a post-secondary education. Foster youth have one of the highest rates of homelessness.

Supporting them in their effort to gain an education and establish stable housing helps them avoid homelessness.
• The Santa Clarita Valley Senior Center will provide Community Access Services to assist individuals over 50 years of age with all aspects of housing. Each individual receives a comprehensive assessment to determine housing needs. They are then provided with a wide array of housing related services, which help them maintain independent living in the least restrictive manner possible and avoid homelessness.
• Salvation Army will assist those at risk of becoming homeless through rent and utility assistance, and supportive services. They will provide housing-focused case management including assessment, counseling and access to supportive services. The case manager will provide clients with referrals for issues pertaining to mental illness, substance abuse and employability.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j)
The main barriers to the development of affordable housing are high development costs and a lack of funds.

Santa Clarita is a desirable city in which to live, and the high demand for market -rate housing drives land costs up. Construction costs, which were already high, have risen dramatically since the start of the pandemic. Santa Clarita also has physical constraints such as slopes, ridgelines, flood zones, and high fire zones, which can add significantly to construction costs.

State law (California Envir onmental Quality Act, California Endangered Species Act) and federal law (National Environmental Protection Act, Federal Endangered Species Act) regulations require environmental review of proposed affordable housing developments. While environmental revie w is an important and necessary component of development which benefits the community, the costs of the environmental review process also increase the cost of affordable housing.

One source of affordable housing funding is HOME funds. The City became a HO ME Participating Jurisdiction in 2020 and receives approximately $600,000 annually. The City also receives CDBG Entitlement funds, but there are constraints on how CDBG funds may be used in an affordable housing project. CDBG may not be used for affordabl e housing construction, but may be used as a source for land acquisition and site improvements. The City has a limited amount of local housing funds which may be used as well. Even with these resources, the City will need to seek out other funds in order to build affordable rental units.

While developing new affordable housing is important, it is equally important to maintain existing affordable housing. Activities that the City plans to undertake in FY 2026- 2027 to help maintain existing affordable housing include:
• Funding the Handyworker Program which provides owner -occupied minor rehabilitation services. The Handyworker Program targets low - and moderate- income homeowners and provides repairs to condominiums, mobile homes, and single-family homes, thus preserving the affordable housing stock.
• Administering Santa Clarita Municipal Code (SCMC) 6.02 and 6.04 to protect residents in mobile home parks. Mobile homes represent a large percentage of the City's affordable housing stock. The following Ordinances will continue to be in effect in FY 2026-2027 to foster and maintain this critical resource for affordable housing:
o Manufactured Home Park Rent Adjustment Procedures Ordinance (SCMC 6.02) Adopted in 1991, and most recently updated in 2017, t his City Ordinance protects manufactured home park residents from unreasonable rent increases and provides an appeal process.
o Manufactured Home Parks - Change in Use Ordinance (SCMC 6.04) - Adopted in 1991, and most recently updated in 2015, this City Ordi nance establishes specific requirements for compensation to mobile home park residents in the event of mobile home park closures.
o Funding a contract with The Housing Right s Center. Fair housing issues are affordable housing issues since violations of fair housing law disproportionally impact low - and moderate- income residents. The City has an Analysis of Impediments (AI) which identifies any potential impediments

Annual Action Plan

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
to fair housing in Santa Clarita and establishes a Fair Housing Action Plan.

Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment
The City is currently in its 6th cycle of the 2021- 2029 Housing Element which was submitted and approved by the State of California Housing and Community Development Department (HCD). It was certified by HCD in August 2023. As part of the development of the 2021- 2029 Housing Element, the City evaluated local zoning with the intent to encourage affordable housing. The City also reas sessed land use policies, development standards and procedures for facilitating housing development. During this process, the City established goals, policies, and programs for housing production and preservation for the eight-year planning period.

The 2021-2029 Housing Element contains over 20 programs and policies which address the housing needs for low- and moderate-income households and remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies which serve as barriers to affordable housing. The implementing programs include, but are not limited to:
• Identifying and maintaining a sufficient inventory of sites suitably zoned for housing at all income levels.
• Offering incentives for projects which include affordable housing, including priority processing of subdivision maps, expedited review of development applications, and modifications of development requirements designed to reduce the projects overall cost. • Developing a formal request for proposal process to encourage affordable housing developers to submit viable affordable housing proposals.
• Prioritizing affordable housing funding (as available) for the development of extremely low - income units.
• Offering expedited processing for affordable housing projects. • Maintaining the existing Affordable Housing Density Bonus program. • Giving funding preference of housing subsidies to extremely low -income households in new affordable development.
• Limiting code enforcement activities to those which pose an immediate threat to public health and safety.

Introduction
Priority needs established in the FY 2024-2028 five-year Consolidated Plan, which forms the basis for establishing objectives and outcomes in the FY 2026-2027 Action Plan, are as follows:
• Improve, Maintain, and Expand Affordable Housing
• Improve and Expand Facilities and Infrastructure in Lower Income Areas • Provide Services to Address Homelessness and Homelessness Prevention • Provide Supportive Human Services
• Address the Impact of Covid-19 on Lower Income Residents • Planning and Administration
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs Those residents with the greatest underserved needs are the homeless, those at -risk of homelessness, the disabled, female- headed households, and very low -income families. The greatest obstacle to meeting underserved needs is a lack of funding. Nevertheless, the City will use FY 2026-2027 CDBG funds to assist all of these underserved needs by funding the programs which are described in detail in section AP-38.

CDBG-CV funds do not have the same 15% limit for social service type programs. The City has used and plans to continue to use up to 80% of the CDBG -CV funds to address the needs of those impacted by the pandemic, which include the homeless, those at -risk of homelessness, the disabled, female- headed households, and very low-income families for those impacted by the pandemic.

Because CDBG and CDBG -CV funds are not sufficient to meet underserved needs, the City also provide s general fund grants to local non-profits to provide services to City residents in the areas of arts and community services. Grants awarded in FY 2025- 26 included but were not limited to, a program which provides home furnishings and necessities to foster youth moving into a new home, access to computers for seniors, and a program which provides care kits to homeless individuals – all addressing underserved needs.

Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City will foster and maintain affordable housing by using FY 2026- 2027 CDBG funds to provide a grant to the Santa Clarita Valley Committee on Aging for the Handyworker Program. Through this grant, a total of $450,000 in CDBG funds will assist low- and moderate-income homeowners to address accessibility issues and unsafe conditions in their homes. These activities are expected to provide rehabilitation assistance to 60 households.

The City plans to release a Request for Proposals to engage an affordable housing developer with whom to partner on the development of new affordable housing. The acquisition of land will be funded with the City’s HOME funds and possibly with City developer funds. CDBG funds may be used for acquisition and site

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
improvement. The City will also seek additional funding from other sources such as tax credits or State Multi- Family Housing grants.

The City will also continue to encourage developers, non-profit organizations, and other interested parties to develop new affordable units and will support non- City applications for development funds through the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC) and the State of California.

Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards.

Due to the mean age of the City's housing, homes containing lead- based paint are not believed to be a significant problem. However, the City will continue to evaluate and reduce lead-based paint hazards through the following actions and activities:
• Make information available to landlords, renters, and various property management agencies regarding the dangers of lead-based paint and appropriate mitigation strategies, as part of the City's contract with the Housing Rights Center.
• Provide written information through one- on-one contact with contractors, building inspectors, code enforcement officers, and the public at the City's Permit Center. • Provide homeowners who have been cited for code violations involving the disturbance of paint on a pre-1978 home with information on lead-based paint hazards as part of the citation package • In FY 2026-2027, the City will fund the Handyworker Program operated by the Senior Center. This program will assist low-income homeowners with minor interior and exterior housing repairs as well as address lead- based paint hazards in pre- 1978 homes, where applicable. All occupants of pre- 1978 housing assisted by the Handyworker Program will receive the most updated version of the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Protect Your Family from Lead in Your Home pamphlet.

Handyworker staff will implement lead- safe work practices for all repair work in compliance with HUD’s Lead-Safe Housing Rule.
• Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families.

The City supports other governmental, private, and non-profit agencies involved in providing services to low- and moderate-income residents and coordinates efforts with these groups where possible to allow for more efficient delivery. A branch of Los Angeles County ’s America’s Job Center is located in Santa Clarita and provides no- cost job training assistance, interview training, and specialized services for marginalized populations like the disabled and those exiting institutional settings. The programs are designed to increase employment marketability, household income and housing options, thereby reducing the number of families in poverty.

The City will allocate fifteen percent of CDBG funds to public service agencies that offer supportive services in the fight against poverty, as detailed earlier in this Action Plan. In addition, other special community benefit needs are also addressed through the Community Services Grant Program by providing funding to various local agencies using General Funds.

In FY 2026- 27, the City’s Economic Development division will continue in its efforts to aid the economic growth of the City. The City strives to create a quality jobs -housing balance to ensure the needs of the community and its residents are met. To this end, the City has targeted six main industry sectors for attraction

Annual Action Plan

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
and expansion: Aerospace and Defense, Bioscience and Medical Devices, Advanced Manufacturing, Digital Media and Entertainment, Information Technology, and Corporate Headquarters and Professional Services.

The Economic Development division works with agencies such as the Santa Clarita Economic Development Corporation, the Santa Clarita Chamber of Commerce, and the Valley Industrial Association to achieve these goals. Through these efforts, the Economic Devel opment division will continue to work diligently to provide quality employment opportunities and support the overall economic health of the City and its residents.

Actions planned to develop institutional structure
The City has developed a strong institutional structure which includes a wide spectrum of partners as outlined in SP-40 of the Con Plan and does not believe there are significant gaps in the institutional structure. These partnerships include frequent interactions across the organizations, as well as more formal collaboration efforts, including meetings organized through the San Fernando Valley Council of Governments (SFVCOG) and L.A. Family Housing.

In 2018, the City created its Homeless Task Force, bringing together governmental agencies, nonprofit partners, school districts, private sector partners, and faith-based partners together to increase collaboration and work together to address homelessness. The Homeless Task Force prepares and works towards a bi - annual Action Plan, which details specific goals for the Homeless Task Force to accomplish, including increasing coordination among the agencies, increasing services provided for specific sectors, inc luding youths and those with mental health needs, and evaluating ways to integrate with and expedite the process towards permanent housing. The Homeless Task Force is currently comprised of 30+ organizations and meets quarterly, with subcommittees focusing on specific sections of the Action Plan typically meeting monthly.

In addition, the City’s Recreation and Community Services Department directly provides accessible, affordable enrichment and recreation opportunities for youth and families. Specific programs address the needs of at -risk youth, promote volunteerism, encourage healthy lifestyles, and celebrate the community’s cultural and family identity. Reduced- fee or no- fee options are available to low - and moderate- income residents.

The City also utilizes the services of North Los Angeles County Volunteer Center, a local non-profit agency.

The North Los Angeles County Volunteer Center programs services include coordinating volunteer opportunities for individuals and the administration of the City’s Court Referral Program.

Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies
The City’s Community Development Department manages all housing- related projects, programs, and functions. Community Development includes an administration component and is comprised of the Planning, Community Preservation, and Building and Safety Divisions. The CDBG and HOME programs are managed through the Community Development Department which allows for better communication and a more coordinated effort to address the issues affecting the low - and moderate-income residents of the City. The three Divisions work together to support the development of a clear and comprehensive affordable housing

1 What about services for people with cancer? 11/11/2025 8:26 AM 2 I’m not sure what ‘assistance’ means or ‘services’ means here so it’s hard to answer. 11/10/2025 2:58 PM 3 Me (kovid chad mataisz) not being censored, discriminated, blocked, or oppressed for my amazing service providing the antibody inside the covid 19 vaccine. The payout and props from the pharmaceutical companies would be great for our city for sure. 11/5/2025 3:10 PM

6 All services are important and need to continue to be funded. Our homeless population is starting to get more and more. We need resources for them, so they aren't sleeping outside of the CVS. I also wonder how the homeless population is in Saugus and Valencia. It seems like Canyon Country and Newhall are taking the brunt of it.

12 Right now, the libraries and senior programs at the Community Centersare overflowing with the groups who assist with adults with disabilities. The large influx of groups is leaving very little available seating and program resources for anyone not in these groups. There is a big need in the community for activities for adults with disabilities and their groups. 9/24/2025 10:13 AM

1 We are missing the arts. 11/12/2025 5:06 PM
2 Focus on the foundation and then the extra services. The foundations of Santa Clarita are crumbling. Too many people, too much traffic, school districts are falling apart. The infrastructure is falling apart. Stop building houses. Parents not parenting their children. It's a mess. Where is actual leadership? Not people with titles eager to ingratiate themselves, but actual leadership. People looking out for the good of Santa Clarita. I've been here 44 years and it's never been so bad.
11/11/2025 8:26 AM
3 It seems we are too soft on homelessness. Nearby Carlsbad and Oceanside have very little homelessness (visible anyways). Maybe unpopular opinion but do whatever they are doing. 11/10/2025 2:58 PM
4 That any funds that are allocated to any project are managed well, funds are accounted for, and regular and independent financial audits are conducted. 11/8/2025 11:40 AM
5 :) 11/7/2025 9:49 PM
6 You need to advertise that these funds are available, and how to get them. 11/7/2025 6:02 PM 7 Affordable Housing is important but we should do more to support couples to invest instead of more low income rentals that are based on an individual being below a threshold where the more dependents the more they qualify (this promotes poverty). We need more programs that give incentives to build wealth and have pride in ownership and unity with a domestic partner who shares in the responsibility. The more people partner less supply is needed than housing people individually. Please keep out transitional housing and homeless shelters, the more you cater to this population in SCV the more homeless people will migrate here. It's all too common in downtown LA and has run down neighborhoods. I am speaking from experience having the misfortune of ending up in that situation myself (I don't want that lifestyle to spread to my beautiful hometown of Santa Clarita)

9 Since I am the sole provider whose antibodies were used by pfizer, Moderna, biontech, and jansenns to develop the covid 19 vaccine and boosters that save so many lives world wide and put an end to the pandemic after on October 8, 2020 I demanded nurses at Henry mayo to draw extra vials of my blood and to rush those vials to the pharma companies so they could develop the covid 19 vaccine all ready ( at that point in time they were only at the drug remdemivir in their quest to create the vaccine , they had yet to do such)...I believe that I Chad mataisz who is a life long resident of Santa clarita deserves proper public recognition and also compensation from the pharmaceutical companies involved. Thank you. 11/5/2025 3:10 PM
10 Please introduce programs for residents who have been long time renters in SCV the opportunity to be eligible for a home ownership program in SCV. 11/4/2025 3:04 PM
11 Less stringent requirements to reserve baseball fields. 10/28/2025 5:39 PM 12 We really appreciate everything The city of Santa Clarita does. I do wish they would stop building homes too many new homes and not enough roads. 10/28/2025 4:21 PM
13 Housing for the homeless. No homeless should be on our streets. 10/27/2025 1:01 PM 14 more youth basketball teams 10/27/2025 12:05 PM
15 More water parks, activities for low-income family for music for sports 10/24/2025 2:45 PM 16 Need another community centers for for all ages to use and more centers for youth. 10/24/2025 9:08 AM 17 More affordable activities to do in this town for teens. How many times can they go to MB2 and Magic Mountain??? Going bowling is over $80 for less than 2 hours play time, it is over $60 or $70 to go to a movie. Not everyone in this town has that kind of money. I would say that 10/23/2025 1:23 PM

95% of all the 40 parks in this town are sports based. My child likes her sports but not every park needs to have a ball field and basketball hoops. And pretty much all the community centers are sports based too!! You keep allowing more homes to be built but not all families are going to want to play sports, and you can only go to swing and go down a slide so many times. I have to go to the valley or the South Bay to keep my daughter and myself entertained. 18 more affordable year around sports opportunities for the youth to keep them out of trouble. more affordable teen groups for kids with mental health issues and disorders. I remember going to a once a week free group where I was provided food and we would just talk about stuff how our weeks went, every week was a subject where we couldnt talk to parents about but to other teens about and it was great.
10/23/2025 1:12 PM
19 Your Parks And Recs registration needs to be improved. Using a system that crashes and choosing a time and date that is the same for multiple very popular sports and activities. Just set everyone up for failure, including those less fortunate, with limited access to computers and whose first language is not English. As many times as you have chosen a new company or a new program to use, no one has figured out the simplicity of just spacing out each programs registration for different dates and times to alleviate the system overload that happens every time.
10/23/2025 12:40 PM
20 Stop building new homes!! This city traffic is already horrible! Stop wasting money on things that don’t need improvement! Add more libraries, senior and youth centers. Help our veterans! And why do things have to benefit primarily low-and moderate-income residents, the city should equally benefit all its residents!! Add more open spaces with benches and gathering areas, maybe a town plaza for the community to gather in and connect 10/23/2025 12:09 PM
21 More year-round youth sports. 10/23/2025 12:01 PM
22 Refacing old or damaged store fronts would enhance the community also. What comes to mind is the west/north corner of Soledad Canyon and Sand Canyon…such an eye sore. 10/23/2025 11:45 AM
23 Traffic lights dont seem to synchronize especially during school area, and delays long. Plus to many homes are being constructed
10/23/2025 11:43 AM
24 Focus on the homeowners. The more money you throw at homeless, the more they’re going to flock to the area. Get rid of them and prioritize the families who pay to be here and not suckle at the government’s teet.
10/19/2025 3:39 AM
25 More dog parks, water play areas, and parks that have play structures and basketball courts. I noticed a lot of bus stops don’t have shade. Every bus stop should have a canopy or something for people to stand under when it’s extremely hot. That might encourage more bus transportation.
10/18/2025 9:29 AM
26 It’s not that the issues raised on this survey are not important but I am most concerned with the amount of dumping and trash along the SR-14 and Sierra Hwy. Streets in Newhall have pots and holes. It looks terrible and it’s dangerous. Please focus on the beautification of our city. SR-14 and Sierra Hwy is a direct reflection on the city of Santa Clarita. 10/18/2025 7:23 AM
27 I think it’s really important that the unhoused and low income communities get the support and infrastructure they need. Another big help for the city would be starting after school programs or creating safe spaces for youth so they are not getting in trouble because they are bored. 10/17/2025 3:20 PM
28 Santa Clarita has a thriving cycling community, hundreds of people and their families use the existing bike infastructure for enrichment and entertainment. Any improvements to these bike paths, or extra accessibility to them will be a huge welcome. Bike lanes on streets would also be an excellent safety idea.
10/17/2025 2:22 PM
29 Please add a splash pad to one of the public parks! 10/17/2025 1:23 PM 30 The city should invest in splash pads for very young children (not wading pools), whether that's at parks or in public areas near shopping centers. Bridgeport Park, Todd Longshore Park, Summit Park, Downtown Newhall would all be good options. Here are a couple examples: 1. https://www.sioux-city.org/government/departments-g-p/parks-recreation/splash-pads 2. https://www.carsonnow.org/06/06/2019/mcfadden-plaza-splash-pad-now-and-running-cool- during-hot-weather

32 CDBG grants are so restrictive and the administrative burden and requirements on reporting end up costing more to manage than the amounts that are distributed to organizations who receive the funding.
10/15/2025 4:36 PM
33 Newhall park play area is in urgently needed of upgrade, since it was built nothing has been done on it. It is very old and out dated. This park is very important to the Newhall community. I have seen new parks built some old completely redone, however this park has been forgotten.

I feel this park and this community have been left behind by the Santa Clarita Valley, proof me wrong.

35 I would love to see my local park (newhall park) get upgraded. I would also love to see if there can be a a bridge be built from the canyon crest apartments to the plaza on the across the street from there. I see a lot a people crossing the avenue on busy hours. 10/8/2025 8:08 AM

9/24/2025 4:28 PM
41 An everyday issue is the sheer magnitude of terrible drivers we have living in this area.

Constantly seeing drivers running red lights, speeding, and with little regard for pedestrians. It is truly like we're living in Mad Max: Fury Road. I do not necessarily support a larger police presence really anywhere, but a brainstorm session needs to be had about what can be done to remedy this issue a bit. Other than that, we need to put an emphasis on compensation for the jewels of our city: the public libraries. Public libraries offer countless resources to the community and there needs to be an emphasis on promoting its services and singing its praises. Also it's time to have a revote on compensating city workers in general for being bilingual. In this day and age, and especially being in Southern California, you SHOULD know how to speak Spanish. Our bilingual workers are able to help a larger amount of patrons and community members and this is a SKILL that should not be ignored. LA County offers this level of compensation to its library workers and seems like this city has little regard for the diversity, assistance, and communication this skillset can bring. 9/24/2025 1:07 PM
42 none 9/24/2025 9:17 AM
43 Providing resources for individuals, particularly adults, with special needs is hugely beneficial.

Services and opportunities drop off in adulthood.
9/24/2025 8:51 AM
44 All of these programs are invaluable assets to the community. It's important to maintain effective services in all areas, due to the intersectionality of issues like unaffordable housing, homelessness, and community programs.
9/24/2025 8:46 AM
45 Financial incentives for homeowners for energy efficiency due to rising energy prices 9/24/2025 7:25 AM 46 I know 1.4 million is not enough for a hospital, but the community needs another hospital. 9/23/2025 5:23 PM 47 Consider trying out Metro's budget survey on when they ask residents to allocate budget to these different priorities. It's a fun way to collect the same data and helps people understand that there are tradeoffs with the budget.
9/23/2025 5:15 PM
48 More sports for kids with Disabilities more inclusion programs 9/22/2025 2:52 PM 49 We need MORE INDOOR BASKETBALL COURT facilities. For a city that collects Mello Roos and extra taxes, INDOOR basketball courts should be built for the youths so Leagues/Teams can run weekend Tournaments for the kids.
9/22/2025 2:33 PM
50 We need fewer apartments and more houses 9/22/2025 12:05 PM 51 The Santa Clarita elementary school should be turned into another recreational entertainment for the city of Saugus all community members specially children would benefit from it. 9/22/2025 11:44 AM

52 Santa Clarita has two or three indoor gyms, we have a sports complex were volleyball can not be played at a normal level due to low ceilings. We are one of the richest cities and we need our infrastructure upgraded.
9/22/2025 11:36 AM
53 If you’re going to use the block grant for youth sports, please make them more affordable 9/22/2025 11:32 AM 54 Our area is already overpopulated and understaffed. We need a new hospital, more services and LESS new home developments. We also need to prioritize help for the homeless that are SLEEPING on our streets. We pay ENTIRELY too much to have to deal with this. Crime is up.

Homeless is up. Traffic is up. And what does the city do, "LET'S BUILD MORE HOMES". This is not the answer. DO BETTER.
9/22/2025 11:22 AM
55 Help with the increasing number of car accidents. 9/22/2025 11:17 AM 56 Crime & gang prevention programs for youth need to be a priority. Santa Clarita also needs more residential treatment centers and programs for those experiencing drug addiction. 9/22/2025 8:45 AM

Q7 7. ¿Tiene algún comentario o sugerencia adicional para el uso quehace la Ciudad de los fondos CDBG del programa 2026-2027? Answered: 6 Skipped: 4
# RESPONSES DATE
1 Mejorar el parque de Newhall, William S. Hart y Canyon Country para que tengan el mismo nivel de intraestructura que los parques nuevos de Santa Clarita con opciones en las que muchas ninos y personas puedan utilizar como soccer rapido, algun tipo de escenario para grupos de baile como folklorico, danza, o bandas de escuelas puedan ensayar o presentarse.

Y alrededor de parques hacer siempre un espacio para que puedan andar en bici, correr, caminar o patinar.

2 Me gustaría ver todas las áreas limpias y verdes me refiero a calles enfrente de las casas últimamente la Ciudad no está haciendo mucho a el respecto 10/9/2025 12:52 PM
3 Un supermercado en Newhall nos hace falta. La communidad enfrento un cambio dificil cuando nos quitaron Las Tres Sierras y ahora lo an remplacado con una vivienda de cinco pisos Que Va alejar aun mas la communidad latina. La renta en newhall ya esta muy alto y el sueldo minimo no Alcanza para seguir viviendo aqui. Mucha gente latina ya se mudo a Lancaster , Palmdale, o San Fernando por esta misma razon . El centro de Main Street ya no lo reconozco y los negocios Latinos han cerado sus puertas por Los precios altos de rentar Los locales en Main Street. La communidad NO neccessitan mas bares de alcohol porque ya existen demasiados en Main Street
