MEETING DATE: March 26, 2024 PAGE 2
SUBJECT: 2024-2025 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT ANNUAL ACTION PLAN Proposed 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan. This item is the first of a two-step approval process. The City Council must conduct a public hearing to review and receive comments on the proposed 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan (2024 Annual Plan) and open a 30-day public comment period. A second meeting to consider and adopt the 2024 Annual Plan is scheduled for the April 23, 2024 City Council meeting. The Draft 2024 Annual Action Plan (Exhibit 1) includes affordable housing goals, HUD required fair housing services, homeless prevention and reduction services, facility infrastructure improvements, beautification efforts, crime and delinquency prevention activities, and public services for low-income individuals.
The City anticipates that the United States Congress will retain the current CDBG funding level; however, the grant amount may increase or decrease up to 20 percent. The City's estimated CDBG commitment for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-2025 is $966,700.
The CDBG program can utilize funds in the following categories:
• Public (Social) Service Programs with a maximum of 15 percent of the annual CDBG allocation can be dedicated to social services. The FY 2024-2025 plan estimated allocating $145,000 for public service programs.
• Housing and Capital Projects does not have a maximum allocation for this category. The FY 2024- 2025 plan estimates allocating $628,360 to capital projects. • Program Administration, which includes Fair Housing Services, with a maximum of twenty percent of the annual CDBG allocation that can be dedicated to administration. The FY 2024-2025 plan estimates allocating $193,340 to administration.
The amount spent for public services and administration cannot exceed the respective caps. However, if a jurisdiction chooses to spend less than the maximum amount for public services or administration, the remaining balance for those categories may be allocated to capital projects, non-public service economic development activities, or other eligible activities. Savings in administration cannot be used to exceed the 15 percent public service cap.
Public (Social) Service Programs. On December 10, 2019, the City Council approved Public Service funding priorities for the City's Five -Year Consolidated Plan based on resident feedback. On January 5, 2022, City staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for public service projects addressing one of the following approved categories:
• Homelessness and housing services
• Health services (including mental health and substance abuse) • Support services for seniors and special needs
• Crime awareness and prevention services
As approved by City Council funding priorities, and included in the RFP package, the City has set aside $22,000 for Operation Hope. In addition to dedicated CDBG-Coronavirus funding, the City has set aside $15,000 for the Senior Nutrition Program.
The CDBG Citizen's Advisory Committee (Advisory Committee) evaluated and interviewed fourteen public service providers in January and February. The Advisory Committee held a meeting on February 14, 2024 and ranked proposals based upon the applicants' ability to provide services within the HUD program federal guidelines as well as the parameters outlined in the RFP. The funding recommendations are listed in the chart below and these contracts will be in place for a term of one year. 03/26/2024 PH 1 2 of 52

Capital Projects. On December 12, 2017, the City Council directed staff to allocate available CDBG funding towards sidewalk improvements. Based on the anticipated funding, staff recommends allocating $628,360 to sidewalk improvements, Senior Center Improvements, facility improvements and other pedestrian amenities as approved by HUD. Work has begun on Avenida de Benito Juarez sidewalks and will likely be completed in April 2024. These areas have been identified as areas of high poverty, high population density, and a high pedestrian volume including children traveling to and from school.
Administration. Funds allocated for CDBG program administration are used to support general CDBG administration and operation costs associated with the City's Housing Programs and to fund Fair Housing activities. HUD requires CDBG recipients to affirmatively further fair housing. Fair Housing services are allowable under Public Service or Administration. By utilizing Administration funds, the City can fund more programs under Public Service. Staff recommends an estimated commitment of funding for administration in the amount of $193,340, the maximum allowable amount, which includes Fair Housing Services.
FISCAL IMPACT: The City's estimated commitment of $966,700 will be programmed in the FY 2024/25 Operating Budget in the CDBG Grant Revenue account (No. 1030028.427013). CDBG is a cost reimbursement program, requiring the City to pay costs upfront and then submit for reimbursement on a quarterly basis.

Executive Summary
AP-05 Executive Summary - 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
Introduction
As an entitlement jurisdiction under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the City of Vista ("City") receives federal funds in proportion to its population size, concentration of poverty, and other socioeconomic and demographic data. Located seven miles inland from the Pacific Ocean, Vista is a thriving community in northern San Diego County and is the commercial heart of the fast-growing Highway 78 Corridor. The Charter Law city was incorporated in 1963 and is approximately 19 square miles with an estimated population of 99,835 (CA Department of Finance, 2021-2023).
In 1991, the City of Vista became an entitlement city, in which the City receives an annual entitlement of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). CDBG funding must be allocated to activities that benefit low-income persons and/or low-income neighborhoods. Low-income neighborhoods are identified as having a high concentration (51% or more) of low -to -moderate -income individuals and/or families. Every five years, the City prepares and adopts a five-year Consolidated Plan, which identifies strategies for addressing the City's overall housing and community development goals. This is the Fifth year (2024) of the Consolidated Plan, which is in effect from 2020 through 2024. The Annual Action Plan sets forth the 2024 projects and activities and identifies the expected resources that will further the priorities and goals in the Consolidated Plan. The City estimates to receive grants funds from HUD in the amount of $990,268.
The City does not receive other federal funding sources such as The Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) or Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG). Beginning in FY 2014-2015, based on new federal criteria, the City was determined to be ineligible to receive direct funding from the HOME program; therefore, the City participates in the San Diego HOME Consortium. The Consortium consists of the cities of Carlsbad, Encinitas, La Mesa, San Marcos, Santee, Vista, and the County of San Diego. Jointly, the San Diego HOME Consortium is eligible to receive HOME funds as a single participating jurisdiction and the County of San Diego serves as the lead agent for the Consortium. On February 28, 2023, the City authorized the renewal of an agreement to participate in the San Diego County HOME Consortium for Fiscal Year 2024/25 with an automatic renewal to participate in Fiscal Years 2025/26 and 2026/27.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing-91.420, 91.220(j)
Introduction
As part of the Consolidated Plan process, a regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) was conducted for all jurisdictions in the County. The City of Vista is currently in a collaborative process with the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDRAFFH) to develop the 2020-2024 Al. The Al is a review of barriers that prevent people from choosing their preferred housing including an assessment of the availability of affordable, accessible housing.
Land use controls, site improvement requirements, building codes, fees, and other local programs to improve the overall quality of housing are constraints to housing development. These issues were explored in the development of the City's 2021-2029 Housing Element.
State law requires each community to play a role in meeting the region's housing needs. A jurisdiction must demonstrate in the Housing Element that its land inventory is adequate to accommodate its share of the region's projected growth. Vista's share of regional future housing needs is 2,561 new units between June 30, 2020 and April 15, 2029 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 of Vista is committed to reducing the barriers of housing to vulnerable populations due to environmental hazards. Communities of color and lower -income communities are disproportionately burdened with poor housing conditions due to a variety of environmental threats and hazards. Under California Government Code 65040, environmental justice is designed as "the fair treatment of people of all races, cultures, and incomes with respect to the development, adoption, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies." The City is committed to expanding safe and healthy housing opportunities for people of all groups through the continuous expansion of environmental justice policies, conducting thorough environmental review of all housing developments, and creating partnerships with environmental justice agencies and advocates such as the California Environmental Justice Alliance.

Discussion
The City of Vista has worked collaboratively with the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing to complete the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing which identifies regional barriers and local barriers to fair housing around the city, with heavy emphasis on racial and economic disparity and environmental justice. Methodologies were identified to reduce barriers in the City include adjusting zoning amendments to expand affordable and alternative housing opportunities, and increasing accessibility to information.

The City has and will continue to work with other governmental organizations, nonprofits, businesses, and other entities to coordinate the provision of services in Vista.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City will continue to work with affordable housing developers to expand housing options for low- income individuals. The City is providing land, which will be assessed for value, and financial contribution of $1.25 million to National CORE and San Diego CHC for 54-units of affordable housing. The development, Vista Senior Village, will be permanent supportive housing targeted at formerly unsheltered seniors and will be completed in the Fall of 2024.

Economic Development activities aim to reduce the number of poverty -level families in the City through increased skills and opportunities. Employment services help ensure that individuals are prepared for the workforce and the initial process of applying and interviewing for a job.

2024-2025 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) FUNDING Honorable Mayor and City Council Members,
My name is Nannette Stamm, and I am the Chief Community Health Officer at Vista Community Clinic.
On behalf of Vista Community Clinic, I would like to express our gratitude and appreciation for the continued support via CDBG funds that the City of Vista has provided to our Wellness Clinic. We are grateful that the City is proposing to continue this support through CDBG funding in FY 2024-2025. Our Wellness Clinic has been an instrumental tool for helping to improve the health and well-being of low- income residents of the City of Vista by providing low- to no -cost immunizations on a walk-in basis and/or by appointment at our three (3) Vista -based clinics (Vale Terrace, Grapevine and Durian). During the first half of this FY (7/1/23—12/31/23), we served 4,080 Vista residents through our Wellness Clinics. Of those served 97% were extremely low-income (0-30% AMI) and 81% were Hispanic. The immunization program also served 71 people experiencing homelessness and 979 Female Head of Households. We anticipate continuing to serve similar numbers in the future. The recent COVID-19 pandemic underscores the important and vital role that community health centers, like Vista Community Clinic, play in helping our community address vital public health needs. Thank you for supporting our work through CDBG funding.

You don't often get email ftom . Team wh: this i= iatpor aat Dear City Council,
My name is Michelle Martinez. I am a resident of Vista and I support our child care businesses!
I'm writing to express my support for Upwards childcarel There is a pressing need for childcare FOR ALL families in our community. I believe quality childcare providers should be an area of focus and effort because it is SO importantll
Parents are working hard to support their families, but it's sad to see that no matter how hard they work, so many of them still can't afford childcare! Upwards opens up so many child care options for families who may not qualify for other types of programs. They also assist childcare providers with actually maintaining and growing their businesses which is an incredible help!
There is a shortage of childcare in our community! The number of families in need of childcare is concerning and needs attention! We need to invest in expanding childcare services if we want to see our community thrive!
There is also a huge opportunity for job creation here! If we open more childcare centers, there will be more childcare jobs! We need more women in the workforce! Let's help them out!
I would be so excited if you gave Upwards the opportunity to help our community! Their programs have the potential to help so many families and providers who really need it! I would love to see city council prioritize childcare by working with Upwards! Accessible childcare for ALL families should be of high priority and concern! We need to address this NOW! Let's help families and the working class!
Thanks so much!
Sincerely,
Michelle Martinez

Good evening, Mayor Franklin and esteemed City Council Members, Palomar Family Counseling Service supports the 2024/25 Community Development Block Grant Annual Action Plan and is honored to be recommended for funding. We are pleased to partner with the City as well as Vista Unified School District to provide counseling services to Vista residents who may not have ready access otherwise, whether due to inadequate resources or insurance, waitlists, transportation, or other barriers that so many families frequently encounter. We have proudly served the Vista community for more than 60 years. PFCS is steadfast in our commitment to reduce stigma relating to mental health, foster hope for a future without despair, and bolster healthy social - emotional skills, one individual or family at a time. Every individual possesses strengths and the capacity for positive growth, and we thank the City for its investment in the community.
