FUNDING

DISCUSSION
The City of Torrance (City) is a federal entitlement grant recipient of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) funds from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). On July 8, 2025, City Council approved an Annual Action Plan covering FY 2025-26. The FY 2025-26 Annual Action Plan pertained to the City’s HOME allocation of $418,701.85 and CDBG allocation of $947,578. The City entered into a grant agreement with HUD for the administration of the HOME and CDBG funds on September 25, 2025.
CAPER
The purpose of the CAPER is for each participating jurisdiction to report and assess the progress made towards achieving strategic plan and action plan goals. The goals outlined in the FY 2025- 26 Annual Action Plan derived from the Strategic Plan were: Expand Affordable Housing Opportunities, Planning and Administration, Expand Fair Housing Choice and Access, and Special Needs ADA Improvements.
In FY 2025-26, the City continued to expand affordable housing opportunities by operating the Housing Choice Voucher Program through the City’s Public Housing Agency (PHA). The PHA entered into 26 new contracts in FY 2025-26, including new admissions, port-ins, and existing tenant moves.
Additionally, in Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26, the City continued services under the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the South Bay Cities Council of Governments for the operations of a 1 City Council

time-limited subsidy program for participants in the City’s homeless response efforts. The City provided short term rental assistance to 8 households in the program in FY 2025-26.
In program year 2025-26, the City did not expend HOME program funds for an affordable housing project. As stated in the Strategic Plan, due to the high cost of land and property in the Torrance area, the City anticipates using the FY 2025-26 allocation to fund a future affordable housing project.
In FY 2025-26 the City utilized CDBG funds for a sidewalk improvement for disabled accessibility project and a fair housing project. The City continued the sidewalk improvement project in FY 2025-26 in support of the Strategic Plan goal of providing accessibility improvements for the nonhomeless special needs community. This project removed and replaced localized areas of damaged or displaced sidewalk in the neighborhood bounded by 230th Place, Arlington Ave, Sepulveda Blvd, and Crenshaw Blvd and constructed new sidewalks to provide a continuous, unobstructed walking surface. The FY 2025-26 project improved approximately 13,300 square feet of sidewalk and constructed 21 curb ramps compliant with ADA standards to allow for better mobility of the elderly and individuals with disabilities.
In FY 2025-26, the City continued contracting directly with the Housing Rights Center (HRC) for fair housing services. This action is in alignment with the Strategic Plan goal of promoting fair housing among all income categories. In FY 2025-26, the HRC received 152 inquiries from Torrance residents, 13.8% related to housing discrimination. The majority of non-housing discrimination inquiries were related to termination notices. Additionally, the City hosted two Fair Housing Workshops, in collaboration with the HRC, to inform Torrance renters and owners of fair housing laws and regulations.
On September 4, 2026, a legal advertisement was published in the Daily Breeze announcing the 15-day public comment period for the Draft CAPER, which began on September 9, 2026, and ended on September 23, 2026. On September 25, 2026, a legal advertisement was published in the Daily Breeze announcing the public hearing. The CAPER was submitted to HUD on September 25, 2026. The Final CAPER is included as Attachment 2.
In conclusion, it is the recommendation of the Community Development Director that City Council conduct a public hearing on the FY 2025-26 CAPER.

16 CR-25 - Homeless and Other Special Needs 91.220(d, e); 91.320(d, e); 91.520(c) Evaluate the jurisdiction's progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending homelessness through:
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
The City of Torrance has three homeless Outreach Coordinators. The Outreach Coordinators provide outreach, case management, and housing navigation services to people experiencing homelessness in the City of Torrance. The Outreach Team connects clients to a variety of resources including temporary housing, time-limited subsidies, family reunification, and Share! Housing depending on the client's need.
The Outreach Team continued to collaborate with the Los Angeles County Homeless Outreach & Mobile Engagement (HOME) team for joint outreach with mental health services. The HOME Team provides street based specialty mental health care to those experiencing chronic unsheltered homelessness coupled with severe mental illness.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City of Torrance continued to operate a 40-unit temporary housing program in FY 2025-26. The temporary housing program assisted 55 clients. 3290 provides non-congregate shelter beds for people experiencing homelessness within the City of Torrance. Program participants are assisted with housing navigation, enrollment in mainstream benefits, on-site medical services through Venice Family Clinic, document readiness, and case management. Temporary housing participants were also connected with the County Interim Housing Outreach Program (IHOP). IHOP staff visited the site to provide direct service. IHOP is comprised of Staff from County Departments of Homeless Services and Housing (HSH), Mental Health (DMH), and Public Health (DPH). The goal is to provide services to participants whose health impacts their ability to remain in interim housing programs.
The City also expanded interim housing capacity by leasing 6 single room occupancy units in Wilmington for people experiencing homelessness with lower acuity. The outreach team placed participants in these beds while participants waited for placement in permanent housing.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs The City continued to collaborate with the South Bay Cities Council of Government for Client Aide funds.

Approximately 48 households were assisted through Client Aide in FY 2025-26. Additionally, the City continued to operate voucher programs through the Public Housing Agency to assist very-low income households.
The City also worked with the SBCCOG on informing and referring Torrance residents to prevention funding through the Los Angeles County Affordable Housing Solutions Agency (LACAHSA).
This assistance is intended to be temporary, short-term, and available to individuals and families who are currently housed in order to prevent the loss of housing or to resolve a housing crisis. These funds can be utilized for Security Deposits and Other Required Deposits as well as Rental and Utility Arrears. 5 households were assisted in FY 2025-26.
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
As stated above, the City has invested in a temporary housing community, as well as outreach services to help homeless persons make the transition to permanent housing. The Outreach Coordinators as well as the case managers at 3290 work with clients to develop a housing plan and become document ready.
This process enables people experiencing homelessness to shorten the time that they are experiencing homelessness. 125 households were assisted through the Outreach program and 55 clients were assisted at 3290.
In FY 2025-26, the City continued to administer the EHV program. The EHV program bypasses the long waiting list times typical of the traditional housing choice voucher program to prioritize immediate solutions for people experiencing homelessness. HUD informed Public Housing Agencies across the United States that funding for EHV was ending in 2026. In FY 2025-26, the City began the process of transitioning the Emergency Housing Voucher (EHV) participants to the Housing Choice Voucher Program to avoid these participants falling back into homelessness.
The City also continued the administration of the Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing Program (VASH) and the Stability Voucher Program (SV). Both of these programs are referral based from the Veteran's Administration and the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority. The Stability Vouchers assist households experiencing or at risk of homelessness, those fleeing or attempting to flee domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, human trafficking, and veterans and families that include a veteran family member that meets one of the proceeding criteria. Both the Stability Vouchers and VASH vouchers are coupled with ongoing supportive services to prevent individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again.

Actions taken to address the needs of public housing
There are no public housing units in the City. Torrance is one of four independent SPA 8 cities that has its own Public Housing Authority (PHA) administering tenant-based voucher programs.
As identified in the Consolidated Plan, voucher holders face barriers to leasing such as lack of affordable rental units, lack of security deposits, and low credit scores.
In FY 2025-26, the PHA continued to utilized Small Area Fair Market Rents to increase the ability of voucher holders to lease in higher market areas of the City. The PHA also continued to allow housing assistance payment contracts for under one year, increasing the number of potential landlords that the PHA could contract with. The PHA entered into 26 new contracts in FY 2025-26, including new admissions, port-ins, and existing tenant moves.
In Fall 2023, the California State legislature implemented several new laws that reduced barriers to leasing for voucher holders in 2024. The PHA continued to educate current voucher and applicants on their housing rights. AB 12 limits security deposits to one months' rent for most landlords. This new law will assist voucher holders who wish to relocate to another unit. SB 267 prohibits rental property owners from using an assisted person's credit history as part of the application process without offering the applicant the option to provide alternative evidence of a verifiable legal means to pay their portion of the rent. The continued implementation and PHA education of these new laws will address the needs of tenant-based voucher holders/applicants.
Actions taken to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership
The City of Torrance does not operate a public housing program. For the Housing Choice Voucher Program, the PHA convened the annual Resident Advisory Board to solicit feedback from program participants on the creation of the PHA Annual Plan. The PHA also convened the Resident Advisory Board to discuss an amendment to the PHA Plan to allow for the prioritization of EHV Voucher Holders at risk of losing their voucher due to funding termination. The PHA refers participants who are interested in homeownership programs to the Los Angeles County Development Authority.
Actions taken to provide assistance to troubled PHAs
N/A, Torrance is not a troubled PHA.

19 CR-35 - Other Actions 91.220(j)-(k); 91.320(i)-0)
Actions taken 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. 91.220 (j); 91.320 (i) The City is implementing actions identified in the 2021-2029 Housing Element. In FY 2025-26, the City Council adopted the Religious and Higher Education Institution Housing Overlay Zone Ordinance (RHEIHOZ). The RHEIH-OZ applies to qualified properties owned by and operated by religious institutions and independent institutions of higher education. In order to qualify for the RHEIH-OZ, the units must be affordable to low income (80% area median income) households. This Ordinance added a new Section
91.52 entitled "Religious and Higher Education Institution Housing Overlay Zone" to the Torrance Municipal code to establish RHEIH-OZ objective development standards. RHEIH-OZ will allow singlefamily, two-family, multiple-family residential, and senior citizen housing uses by right without discretionary review. The City also adopted the Targeted Density Bonus Ordinance to incentivize housing production at the target density. The Ordinance includes disincentives if the project proposes housing below the target density.
Additionally, in FY 25-26 the City joined the South Bay Regional Housing Trust (SBRHT). The SBRHT will help fund the development and construction of affordable housing units in cities who are members of the trust, and only for development projects supported by the city in which it is proposed.
Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City continued to look for non-traditional ways to develop affordable housing units and meet community development needs. These strategies will continue into future funding years. To meet the current affordable housing need, the City encouraged participants in the City's Temporary Housing Program to complete the Universal Housing Application (UHA). The UHA is a product of the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority, the lead agency of the Los Angeles County CoC. The UHA is an online system that creates a centralized digital application for housing resources. The UHA allows LAHSA to digitally submit housing applications and refrain from using individual paper applications.
The City also continued to administer the SBCCOG funded time-limited subsidy program. This program creates an additional avenue for formerly homeless households to access affordable housing. By providing time-limited subsidies, participants can work to earn additional income and achieve selfsufficency.
Actions taken to reduce lead-based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City of Torrance complied with HUD Lead Based Paint Regulations, which requires all federally assisted housing programs, including rehabilitation, homeownership, and tenant-based subsidy systems, CAPER 17

The City also adopted the Targeted Density Bonus Ordinance to incentivize housing production at the target density. The Ordinance includes disincentives if the project proposes housing below the target density.
Additionally, in FY 25-26 the City joined the South Bay Regional Housing Trust (SBRHT). The SBRHT will help fund the development and construction of affordable housing units in cities who are members of the trust, and only for development projects supported by the city in which it is proposed.
Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City continued to look for non-traditional ways to develop affordable housing units and meet community development needs. These strategies will continue into future funding years. To meet the current affordable housing need, the City encouraged participants in the City’s Temporary Housing Program to complete the Universal Housing Application (UHA). The UHA is a product of the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority, the lead agency of the Los Angeles County CoC. The UHA is an online system that creates a centralized digital application for housing resources. The UHA allows LAHSA to digitally submit housing applications and refrain from using individual paper applications.
The City also continued to administer the SBCCOG funded time-limited subsidy program. This program creates an additional avenue for formerly homeless households to access affordable housing. By providing time-limited subsidies, participants can work to earn additional income and achieve selfsufficency.
Actions taken to reduce lead-based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City of Torrance complied with HUD Lead Based Paint Regulations, which requires all federally assisted housing programs, including rehabilitation, homeownership, and tenant-based subsidy systems, 20 to address lead hazards. The Housing Authority continued to inspect all assisted units biennially to ensure that any lead-based paint hazards were addressed.
Actions taken to reduce the number of poverty-level families. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City and its partners supported a diverse range of programs and services funded through multiple sources to help low to moderate-income families. The City's anti-poverty strategy as outlined in the Action Plan focuses on:
1. Assist families and individuals access resources that may help them move into self-sufficiency (stable and affordable housing, neighborhood-based sources, after-school programs, job training);
2. Prevent poverty through assistance to City of Torrance's youth, building communities, and supporting affordable housing initiatives;
3. Alleviate poverty by improving family and individual economic opportunities that lead to a sustainable living wage.
Special services were provided to Torrance seniors through the City's Community Services Department in the form of health, exercise classes, legal aid, and nutritious meals. In addition, referrals were made to the Los Angeles County Department of Public Social Services for financial assistance to a variety of disabled persons including cooking, cleaning, personal care and transportation.
The City's Public Housing Agency continued to operate tenant based voucher programs, providing stability for poverty-level families (including elderly and disabled people). By providing affordable housing resources, households are able to focus on enrollment in mainstream benefits, education, and job training.
Actions taken to develop institutional structure. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City Council reviews, holds hearings, approves the funding priorities, and approves the submission of the Action Plan to HUD. These hearings took place during the FY 2025-26 funding year. While the Community Development Department has the major responsibility for the Action Plan budgeting, project formulation, and program implementation, other City departments, government agencies, social service agencies, and Torrance residents play an important role. There are several inter-departmental programs, primarily in the area of neighborhood quality of life that are composed of a wide variety of City departments.
Additionally, the City continued to actively collaborate with the South Bay Cities Council of Governments (SBCCOG), particularly in the homeless response network. The SBCCOG is an organization that is a key element of the institutional structure. In the Continuum of Care (CoC), the City's Public Housing Agency continued collaborating with the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) in an effort to further integrate into the CoC.

21 Actions taken to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
The City continued to coordinate with Harbor Interfaith Services, the lead agency in SPA 8, to fill gaps in the social services landscape. This includes the contract with Harbor Interfaith Services for the administration of the City's Temporary Housing Program.
In FY 2025-26, the City's collaboration with the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority continued. The City served as a deployment site for LAHSA's 2026 Homeless Count. The Stability Voucher holders are referred directly from LAHSA, with LAHSA provided intensive case management services (ICMS) through Mental Health America Los Angeles. The City participated in check-ins with LAHSA Staff to ensure program success.
Through the City's PHA, the City continued to work with the other housing agencies in the area including LACDA, HACLA, City of Redondo Beach Housing Authority, City of Hawthorne Housing Authority, and the City of Inglewood Housing Authority. Through the administration of VASH vouchers, the City also continued to collaborate with the West Los Angeles VA as well as VA contractors (Volunteers of America Los Angeles, Village for Vets, etc).
Identify actions taken to overcome the effects of any impediments identified in the jurisdictions analysis of impediments to fair housing choice. 91.520(a) The City's analysis of impediments to fair housing choice was completed in FY 2024-25.
One potential impediment identified was Housing Discrimination Complaints Based on Disability Status or Source of Income. In the Housing Rights Center's Fair Housing workshops in FY 2025-26, Staff highlighted disability discrimination and assisted tenant protections at Fair Housing Workshops in Torrance.
Additionally, the Al identified a need for Expanding Affordable Housing Opportunities. Housing affordability alone is not a fair housing issue. Fair housing concerns arise only when affordability interacts with any issues covered under Fair Housing Law. Furthermore, Black or African American (11.38%), Some Other Race (8.48%), Two or More Races (8.19%), and Hispanic or Latino of Any Race (7.43%) are disproportionately impacted by lower and moderate incomes, and therefore have fewer housing options than other racial/ethnic groups.
The following actions assisted the City in expanding affordable housing opportunities for low- to moderate-income residents.
Section 8 Rental Assistance - The City operated voucher programs through the City Public Housing Authority (PHA). This includes the housing choice voucher program (HCV), veteran's affairs supportive housing program (VASH), emergency housing voucher program (EHV), and stability voucher program CAPER 19

The primary objective of this program is to assist low-income (0 to 50% of MFI) persons and households in making rents affordable. Additionally, the City implemented HUD's Small Area Fair Market Rent (SAFMR). The implementation of the SAFMRs will increase the payment standards in higher rent areas in Torrance, creating increased housing choice for assisted households into higher income zip codes.

23 CR-40 - Monitoring 91.220 and 91.230
Describe the standards and procedures used to monitor activities carried out in furtherance of the plan and used to ensure long-term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements
The City will monitor future activities to ensure long term compliance including determining that activities meet the eligibility of HOME costs, HOME property standards, and cost reasonableness regulations.
The City understands that all efforts using federal, state, and local resources to carry out its Annual Action Plan must be conducted in accordance with established laws, regulations, sound management, and accounting practices. The following procedures have been established for monitoring activities:
• Ongoing, internal reviews of progress reports and expenditures. • Regular internal meetings to coordinate staff efforts in regard to performance and compliance. • Periodic reports to appropriate City officials and other stakeholders. • Full review of audit statements and other documentation from any future subrecipient's prior to disbursement of funds
• Project and financial data on CDBG-funded activities will be maintained using the HUD software IDIS (Integrated Disbursement Information System). Use of this system will allow HUD staff easy access to local data for review and progress evaluation. • Timely submission of the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER).
The Community Development Department oversees the CDBG and HOME funded programs for the City. The Department ensures that all of the CDBG and HOME funded programs are implemented in compliance with federal regulations and local policy. This would include ensuring compliance with Davis- Bacon, environmental review, fair housing, minority and women owned business enterprises, Section 3 affirmative marketing through on-going monitoring of programs and services assisted with CDBG and HOME funds.
The Department will coordinate with other internal departments (i.e. Public Works Department), as well as external agencies (ex. Housing Rights Center), when receiving CDBG funds to operate the various projects and programs. However, each program is administered or coordinated by the appropriate staff in each department and supervised by the Director of that department.
The lead department for the Con Plan preparation and yearly reporting is the Community Development Department under the supervision of the City Manager.
