TITLE: Resolution No. 2024-30: Community Development Block Grant —
2024-2025 Annual Action Plan
ABSTRACT:
The City of Newport Beach receives funds each year through the U. S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) program for Community Development Block
Grants (CDBG), to benefit those with low and moderate incomes, aid in the prevention of
neighborhood deterioration, and meet other urgent community development needs due
to natural disasters or other emergencies. In compliance with the CDBG program
regulations, the City prepares a grant application, in the form of an Annual Action Plan,
outlining how funds will be used in the community. The plan implements strategies
adopted in the City's five-year Consolidated Plan. For the City Council's consideration are
the specific programs and funding proposed for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, allocating
approximately $399,099 in grant funds and $305,774 in program income.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
a) Conduct a public hearing to receive comments on the Annual Action Plan;
b) Find the approval of the 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan exempt from the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) pursuant to 24 CFR Part 58, Section 58.34;
c) Find the approval of the 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will
not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the
environment) and Section 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in
Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14,
Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the
environment, directly or indirectly;
d) Adopt Resolution No. 2024-30, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of
Newport Beach, California, Approving the 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan for
Allocation of the Federal Community Development Block Grant Program Funds for
Fiscal Year 2024-2025; and

e) Authorize the City Manager to:
a. Proportionally adjust appropriations to specific programs and projects as
necessary to conform with the final 2024-2025 formula grant allocation of CDBG
funds from HUD if the appropriation is more or less than $399,099;
b. Submit the 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan to HUD;
c. Execute the 2024-2025 CDBG Program Grant Agreement and all related
documents on behalf of the City of Newport Beach;

e. Authorize the Community Development Director, or his designee, to be the
official representative of the City of Newport Beach, administer the 2024-2025
Annual Action Plan and submit required environmental documentation to HUD
for CDBG projects.
DISCUSSION:
The City receives a formula grant allocation of CDBG funds each year from the federal
government, a program run by HUD. The objective of the CDBG program is to develop
viable urban communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment,
and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for low- and moderate -income
persons. CDBG is authorized under Title I of the Housing and Community Development
Act of 1974. CDBG funds may be used for a wide variety of programs, services and
facilities improvements, including but not limited to:
■ Community and senior services
■ Fair housing enforcement and landlord/ tenant mediation
■ Homeless prevention and domestic violence programs
■ Public facilities and infrastructure improvements
■ Disabled (ADA) accessibility improvements
■ Housing programs
■ Section 108 loan payments
Since July 1, 1989, the City has received total direct allocation of approximately $15.6
million of CDBG funds from HUD with annual allocations ranging from a low of $319,676
in 2017, to a high of $534,000 in 1995. The 2024-2025 formula grant allocation is
anticipated to be approximately $399,099, based on last year's grant amount. In addition,
the City will be using $305,774 in program income from the lease of property acquired
with CDBG funds, for a total of $704,873 to be programmed for fiscal year 2024-2025.
According to CDBG regulations, the City may spend up to 20% of the annual formula
grant allocation of CDBG funds for program administration and 15% for community
services such as senior meal delivery, senior services, or homeless prevention programs.
The remaining amount of funding may be used for projects such as street and sidewalk
improvements, disabled accessibility improvements, and public facilities improvements
such as the construction or rehabilitation of park and recreational facilities, provided the
projects meet applicable CDBG regulations and national objectives.

Each year, the City uses a portion of the funds reserved for program administration to
comply with Fair Housing Act requirements and make fair housing enforcement and
landlord/tenant mediation services available to the community. These services have been
provided free of cost to City residents by the Fair Housing Foundation since 2011.
On January 13, 2024, the City published a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) in the
Daily Pilot newspaper and on the City website, to announce the availability of CDBG funds
and solicit proposals from tax-exempt, nonprofit organizations that provide eligible CDBG
services or projects that benefit the residents.
In response to the NOFA, six nonprofit organizations submitted applications for CDBG
grants. In consideration of the funding available, the amount of funding requested, past
performance, anticipated benefit to the residents, and the City's priorities, staff
recommends program/project funding levels in the Action Plan as follows:
Category

The Action Plan, found in the draft resolution (Attachment A), describes each program. In
consideration of the amount of public service funding available and the amount of public
service funding requested, staff did not recommend fully funding the new public services
applicant, Boys and Girls Club. Doing so would impact the City's ability to fund the
requests of the three existing public service providers which have a focus on preventing
and addressing homelessness in the City. It should be noted the home delivered meals
program has previously been operated by Age Well Senior Services, but due to a
redistricting, the service provider for the City will be changing to Meals on Wheels OC.
Historically, the existing service providers have successfully accomplished their annual
performance goals and provided high quality services to City residents.

With the proposed funding levels shown in the table above, Meals on Wheels OC plans
to serve approximately 35 City residents during the 2024-2025 fiscal year; the agency's
focus is serving meals to homebound senior citizens. Seniors make up approximately
24% of the City's population. Families Forward plans to serve approximately
25 unduplicated City residents with the proposed funding level and will provide services
to families to prevent and address homelessness. Staff also recommends allocating
funding to supplement the City's motel voucher program that is part of the City's ongoing
efforts to address homelessness and provide for street exits. Funding will provide
approximately 30 individuals with short-term lodging as a temporary interim housing
solution as they transition to long-term housing and family reunifications.
Under the Capital Projects category, $458,170 is available to be programmed. Staff
recommends $15,000 to be allocated to Trellis International for its `Labors of Love' home
maintenance program to assist low- and moderate -income senior residents at risk of
losing their housing due to deferred maintenance or code enforcement violations. The
balance of the funding to be allocated under the Capital Projects category, $443,170, is
proposed to be added to the funding of $229,768 allocated under the CDBG 2023-2024
Annual Action Plan to further supplement the City's costs for the San Miguel Park
playground. The Recreation and Senior Services Department, with construction and
project management by the Public Works Department, is overseeing the playground
replacement project and is proposing to install inclusive playground equipment that can
be accessed by all children regardless of physical ability. The project is still in the design
phase, and the total project costs are still being developed. Staff will return to the City
Council for approval of the project once the design has been finalized.
Each of the programs and projects recommended above are contemplated within the
Strategic Plan priorities of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan.
On March 23, 2024, staff published a notice in the Daily Pilot informing the general public
that the City of Newport Beach had prepared the Draft 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan.
The notice also indicated the plan would be available for review and comment until
April 23, 2024. The public has been provided an opportunity to provide oral and/ or written
comments on the proposed activities included in the Draft 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan.
At the time this report was prepared, no public comments have been received.
Additionally, the current Citizen Participation Plan requires that a public hearing be held
to receive testimony from interested residents or parties regarding the Action Plan. The
April 23, 2024, public hearing fulfills this requirement.
CARES Act Funding Update
Under the 2020 federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act),
the City received additional CDBG funding from HUD. A Substantial Amendment to the
2020-2021 Annual Action Plan was approved by the City Council in July 2021 that funded
activities related to preventing and responding to homelessness. A contract with Mind OC
for the Be Well OC Mobile Crisis Response Team Program was approved by City Council
in September 2021, and the program began in March 2022, and has so far spent
$618,845 of $741,079 of the CDBG CARES Act funds. The funds will continue to be used
toward the Mind OC contract until fully expended.

FISCAL IMPACT:
This item provides for the City Council approval of the use of an estimated $399,099 of
CDBG funds, and $305,774 in program income for the 2024-2025 fiscal year, to be
adjusted by the city manager as necessary to conform with the final 2024-2025 formula
grant allocation from HUD. The costs associated with staff management of the CDBG
program are approximately $17,000 per year.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The development of required plans and allocation of CDBG program funds is an
administrative activity exempt under 24 CFR Part 58, Section 58.34 of the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), as amended.
Staff recommends the City Council find the adoption of the 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan
is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections
15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect
physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as
defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations,
Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the
environment, directly or indirectly.

Executive Summary
AP-05 Executive Suminary - 24, CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
1. introduction
The City of Newport Beach has prepared the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan as a requirement to receive
Federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. The Consolidated Plan provides the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) with a comprehensive assessment of the City's
housing and community development needs and outlines the City's priorities, objectives, and strategies
for the investment of CDBG funds to address these needs over the next five years, beginning July I, 2020,
and ending June 30, 2025.
The City receives CDBG funds from HUD on a formula basis each year, and in turn, awards grants to
nonprofit, for -profit or public organizations for programs and projects in furtherance of this Plan. The
CDBG program generally provide for a range of eligible activities for the benefit of low- and moderate -
income Newport Beach residents, as discussed below.
The 2024-2025 Action Plan is the last year of five annual plans implementing the 2020-2024 Consolidated
Plan Strategic Plan goals for the investment of annual allocations of CDBG funds from HUD. The Action
Plan identifies available resources, annual goals, projects, and activities for the period beginning July 1,
2024, and ending June 30, 2025.
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 created the CDBG Program with three primary
objectives against which HUD evaluates the Consolidated Plan and the City's performance under the Plan.
Those primary objectives are decent housing, suitable living environments, and expanded economic
opportunities for low- and moderate -income persons. The CDBG regulations require that each activity
meet one of the following national objectives:
• Benefit low- and moderate -income persons;
Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums and blight; or
Meet other community development needs having a particular urgency (usually the result of a
natural disaster).
For the 2024-2025 program year, the City is anticipating receiving approximately $399,099 in CDBG funds
from HUD. In addition, the City will be using program income of $305,774. Therefore, the total amount
of CDBG funds available for PY 2024-25 is $704,873, as shown in the table below. In the event that the
actual amount of CDBG funding received from HUD is higher or lower than anticipated, the City will
adjust the funding amounts for each activity proportionally and in compliance with regulatory requirements
for funding allocations to certain types of CDBG activities.

2. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan
The priority needs and goals identified in the Plan needs assessment were identified based on analysis of
information including the results of the City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan Needs Assessment Survey
and housing and community development data elements required by HUD in the online Consolidated Plan
system (the eCon Planning Suite) from the 201 1-2015 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-Year

Estimates and the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) covering the same time period.
Additional sources of information used to identify needs and establish priorities were obtained through
consultation with local nonprofit agencies involved in the development of affordable housing and the
delivery of public services to children, families, elderly persons and persons with special needs throughout
the community.
In consideration of community input and available data, the six (6) priority needs listed below are
established as part of this Plan:
• Ensure equal access to housing opportunities
• Provide public services for low- and moderate -income residents
• Improve public facilities and infrastructure
• Address material barriers to accessibility
• Economic development
• Prevent and eliminate homelessness

Consistent with HUD's national goals for the CDBG program to provide decent housing opportunities, maintain a suitable living environment and expand
economic opportunities for low- and moderate -income residents, the priority needs listed above will be addressed over the next five years through the
implementation of CDBG funded activities aligned with the following six measurable Strategic Plan goals:

The City is currently implementing the activities included in the 2023-2024 Action Plan. As of this writing,
all activities are underway.
The investment of HUD resources during the 2023-2024 program year was a catalyst for positive change
in the community. Together with other federal, state and local investments, HUD resources allowed the
City and its partners to accomplish the following goals:
1) Provide fair housing services to residents.
2) Provide homeless prevention and assistance services to residents.
3) Provide public services such as home delivered meals to senior residents and
addressing elder abuse and neglect for senior residents.
4) Provide special needs services such as for community domestic violence for residents
and substance abuse and recovery services for residents.
5) Provide for Section 108 Debt Service and Public Facilities improvements.
4. Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process
Subsequent to the enactment of the Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing
(HEARTH) Act of 2009, HUD revised the Consolidated Plan regulations at 24 CFR Part 91 to emphasize the
importance of citizen participation and consultation in the development of the Consolidated Plan. HUD
strengthened the consultation process with requirements for consultation with the Continuum of Care
(CoC), Public Housing Authorities (PHA), business leaders, civic leaders and public or private agencies that
address housing, health, social service, victim services, employment, or education needs of low-income individuals
and families, homeless individuals and families, youth and/or other persons with special needs. Together with the
analytic capabilities of the eCon Plan Suite, these requirements created the conditions necessary to
implement a collaborative, data -driven and place -based planning process that includes a robust level of
citizen participation and consultation.
In accordance with the City's Citizen Participation Plan, residents and stakeholders were able to participate in
the development of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan through surveys, community meetings and public
hearings. Efforts were made to encourage participation by low- and moderate -income persons, particularly
those living in areas where HUD funds are proposed to be used, and by residents of predominantly low- and
moderate -income neighborhoods. Efforts were made to encourage the participation of minorities and non-
English -speaking persons, as well as persons with disabilities. The consultation process included representativesof
the CoC, PHA, and other specified groups who completed surveys, provided local data and assisted the City to
ensure practical coordination of strategies to maximize impact and to avoid duplication of effort.
2024-2025 Action Plan
In the development of the Action Plan, the City solicited applications from eligible subrecipients including
non-profit organizations and public agencies for fair housing services and a variety of public service

1. Introduction
HUD requires that each jurisdiction encourage its citizens to participate in the development of the
Consolidated Plan and subsequent Action Plan. To ensure the opportunity is provided, the City of
Newport Beach maintains a Citizen Participation Plan.
The Citizen Participation Plan set forth policies and procedures for citizen interaction in planning,
implementation, and assessment of the City's Consolidated Plan/Action Plan. The objectives of the Citizen
Participation Plan are:
• To encourage citizens, particularly residents of low- and moderate -income living in areas eligible
for the use of program funds, including minorities, non-English speaking persons, and persons with
mobility, visual, or hearing impairments, to participate in the development of the Consolidated
Plan/Action Plan.
• To assure that citizens are furnished with appropriate information about the Consolidated Plan
and its various component programs.
On January 13, 2024, the City published a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) in the Daily Pilot
newspaper, City website, and emailed nonprofits, to announce the availability of CDBG funds and solicit
proposals from tax-exempt, nonprofit organizations that provide eligible CDBG services or projects that
benefit Newport Beach residents.
On March 23, 2024, staff published a notice in the Doily Pilot and City website informing the public that
the City of Newport Beach had prepared the Draft 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan. The notice also
indicated the plan would be available for review and comment from March 23, 2024, to April 23, 2024.
The public has been provided an opportunity to provide oral and/or written comments on the proposed
activities included in the Draft 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan. Additionally, the current Citizen
Participation Plan requires that a public hearing be held to receive testimony from interested residents or
parties regarding the Action Plan. The public hearing was held by the City Council on April 23, 2024,
which fulfills this requirement.
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(1))
Through the CDBG program, Newport Beach works closely with a range of housing, social service, health
and other providers operating in Newport Beach and within the region. Throughout the Consolidated
Plan cycle and during the development of each Action Plan, the City creates multiple forums for
consultation and input from various stakeholders and partners operating in the City. During the delivery
of services, the City works as a conduit to align efforts among agencies and partners and ensure
coordination in the delivery of services, especially for those programs that are provided regionally within
Orange County.

Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs
of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families,
families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of
homelessness.
The Continuum of Care (CoC) for Orange County guides the development of homeless strategies and
the implementation of programs to end homelessness throughout the region. Orange County's homeless
system of care is comprised of a network of public, private, faith -based, for -profit, and nonprofit service
providers who utilize several federal, state and local resources to provide services for homeless people.
The regions municipalities, including the City of Newport Beach, also provide resources for services that
assist the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless. City Net provides outreach to homeless
populations and connects supportive organizations to leverage synergies and improve outcomes. The
County's nonprofit community plays a key role in the Continuum of Care system. Hundreds of agencies
throughout the County provide programs ranging from feeding the homeless on the street to creating
permanent supportive housing opportunities. These services are available to homeless adults, families, and
youth. The County's nonprofit community also serves special needs populations, such as victims of
domestic violence, veterans, the disabled and youth.
Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's
area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards for
and evaluate outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop
funding, policies and procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS
The City does not receive ESG funding. However, the City works closely with the CoC homeless system
to create funding policies and procedures. The City supports the network of homeless service providers
existing in and outside of Newport Beach and works to align the City's approach to addressing
homelessness with that of the CoC.

proposals from tax-exempt, nonprofit organizations that provide eligible CDBG services or projects that
benefit Newport Beach residents.
In response to the NOFA, six nonprofit organizations submitted applications for CDBG grants. In
consideration of the funding available, the amount of funding requested, past performance, anticipated
benefit to Newport Beach residents, and City priorities, staff recommends program/project funding levels
in the Action Plan.
On March 23, 2024, staff published a notice in the Doily Pilot and City website informing the general public
that the City of Newport Beach had prepared the Draft 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan. The notice also
indicated the plan would be available for review and comment from March 23, 2024, to April 23, 2024.

Introduction
For program year 2024-2025, the City anticipates receiving approximately $399,099 in CDBG funds from
HUD. In addition, the City will be using $305,774 from program income. Therefore, the total amount
of CDBG funds available for PY 2024-25 is $704,873.
321Page
15-45
Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state, and
local funds), including a description of how matching requirements will be satisfied
Depending on the financing structure of a given activity, it may be advantageous for the City to use CDBGfunds
to leverage appropriate state, local, and private resources, including but not limited to those listed below.
State Resources
• State Low-income Housing Tax Credit Program
• Building Equity and Growth in Neighborhoods Program (BEGIN)
• CalHome Program
• Multifamily Housing Program (MHP)
• Housing Related Parks Grant
• CaIHFA Single and Multi -Family Program
• Mental Health Service Act (MHSA) Funding
Local Resources
• Orange County Housing & Finance Agency (OCHFA) Funding
• Southern California Home Financing Authority (SCHFA) Funding
• Orange County Continuum of Care Program
• Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA) Programs
Private Resources
• Federal Home Loan Bank Affordable Housing Program (AHP)
• Community Reinvestment Act Programs
• United Way Funding
• Private Contributions
• Public -Private Partnerships
If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may
be used toaddress the needs identified in the plan
Newport Beach will comply with new State requirements under AB 1486 and AB 1255 to inventory and support
developers to access and utilize surplus municipal and state land for the construction of affordablehousing. If
such sites are identified, the City will consider the use of CDBG or other resources to assist with site preparation.
At the point of developing this Action Plan, the City does not have anypublicly owned land that can be used to
support the development of affordable housing within the City of Newport Beach.
Matching Requirements
The City of Newport Beach does not receive HOME Investment Partnerships funds as part of its entitlement
allocation. The amountof matching is therefore not applicable for the 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan.

Discussion
Assuming continued level funding of the CDBG programs, the City expects to utilize approximately $2.07million
of CDBG funds during the five-year period beginning July I, 2020 and ending June 30, 2025 to achieve the goals of
the Strategic Plan.

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing
underserved needs
Based on the Strategic Plan, the City is allocating a majority of its non -administrative CDBG funds for programyears
2020-2024 to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate -income people throughout the City.
The primary obstacles to meeting the underserved needs of low- and moderate -income people include lack of
funding from federal, state, and other local sources and the high cost of housing that is not affordable to low-
income residents. To address these obstacles, the City is investing CDBG funds through the 2024-2025 Action
Plan in projects that provide public services to low- and moderate -income people and projects that prevent
homelessness for the low- and moderate -income residents of Newport Beach.

AP-50 Geographic Distribution - 91.220(i)
Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-
incomeand minority concentration) where assistance will be directed
Based on evaluation of CPD Maps data, there are no areas within the City exhibiting a greater level of need
for affordable housing or services for low- and moderate -income residents and there were no areas of the
City containing minority concentrations; therefore, no geographic priorities were established within the
Consolidated Plan and allocation priorities will be driven by citywide need, All CDBG funds will be directed
toward activities benefitting low- and moderate -income residents citywide.
The only exception to this approach would be for CDBG projects that are qualified on a low- and moderate -
income area basis where a specific proportion of the residents within the service area must be low- and
moderate -income residents.
Geographic Area
Table 4 - Geographic Distribution
Citywide Newport Beach will allocate resources across the
City based on need and eligibility
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically
The City's investments in Fair Housing Services, Public Services and Homelessness Prevention Services projects
are based on a citywide geography because individuals in need of these services may live anywhere within the
jurisdiction —particularly services for seniors and homeless individuals.
Discussion
Based on the Strategic Plan, the City is allocating 100 percent of its non -administrative CDBG funds for program
year 2024-2025 to projects and activities that benefit low- and moderate -income people.

AP-55 Affordable Housing - 91.220(g)
Introduction
The City of Newport Beach will look at using non-CDBG local, state, and federal funding sources to develop
new housing units. Preservation of the physical and functional integrity of existing housing units occupied by
low- and moderate -income households is a cost-effective way to invest limited non-CDBG resources to retain
existing housing units that are already affordable to low- and moderate -income households in the community.
Additionally, rehabilitation will assist in resolving housing problems that residents face throughout Newport
Beach. Addressing substandard housing conditions through housing preservation activities ensures that all
economic segments of the community can live in decent housing that meets local standards.
Expand the Supply of Affordable Housing
Based on evaluation of 201 1-2015 ACS and CHAS data, there is a need for additional rental housing units
affordable for households earning less than 50 percent of AMI. Of the households earning 0-80 percent of
AMI, 8,943 are cost burdened households — meaning households paying more than 30 percent of their income
for housing. Additionally, 6,614 of the cost burdened households are considered severely cost burdened
households — meaning that they pay more than 50 percent of their income for housing. Of the 4,410 severely
cost burdened households, 3,580 are renters. Of those severely cost burdened renter households, 3,320
households earn less than 50 percent of AMI and are considered the most at risk of becoming homeless. The
City will continue to use its Affordable Housing Trust Fund and other available options under the State Density
Bonus law to create additional affordable housing. The City's updated its General Plan Housing Element
to 4,845 new housing units. Of that number, 70 percent are required to be affordable to very -low, low -
and moderate -income households. In order to accommodate that requirement, the City is exploring new
policies to encourage production of affordable housing in the 2021-2029 planning period.
Preserve the Supply of Affordable Housing
As the City's housing stock ages, a growing percentage of housing units may need rehabilitation to allow them
to remain safe and habitable. The situation is of particular concern for low- and moderate -income homeowners
who are generally not in a financial position to properly maintain their homes.
The age and condition of Newport Beach's housing stock is an important indicator of potential rehabilitation
needs. Commonly, housing over 15 years of age will exhibit deficiencies in terms of paint, weatherization,
heating 1 air-conditioning systems, hot water heaters and finish plumbing fixtures. Housing over 30 years of age
will typically some form of major rehabilitation, such as roof replacement, foundation work and plumbing
systems. According to CHAS data showing the year that housing units were built categorized by owner and
renter tenure:
• 5,680 or 27 percent of the 20,920 owner -occupied housing units built between i 5 and 34 years
ago (built between 1980 and 1999).
441 Page
15-57
• 11,905 or 57 percent of the 20,920 owner -occupied housing units in Newport Beach were built
34 or more years ago (built prior to 1980).
• 4,745 or 28 percent of the 17,160 renter -occupied housing units in Newport Beach were
builtbetween 15 and 34 years ago (built between 1980 and 1999).
• 10,930 or 63 percent of the 17,160 renter -occupied housing units in Newport Beach were
built 34or more years ago (built prior to 1980).
Preservation of the physical and functional integrity of existing housing units occupied by low- and moderate -
income households is a cost-effective way to invest limited resources to retain existing housing units that are
already affordable to low- and moderate -income households in the community. Addressing substandard
housing conditions through housing preservation activities ensures that all economic segments of the
community have the opportunity to live in decent housing that meets local standards.

Discussion
The Strategic Plan identifies a high priority need to expand the supply of affordable housing. However, the City
will use other funding sources and methods to create affordable housing opportunities such as the Affordable
Housing Trust Fund and the State Density Bonus law. As mentioned previously, the City is also exploring
new affordable housing policies as part of its Housing Element update that would encourage the
production of new affordable units.

Introduction
The City of Newport Beach does not administer Section 8 and does not own HUD Public Housing. Newport
Beach is within the service area of the Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA) for the purposesof Section 8
and Public Housing. The data presented in the tables below is for Newport Beach and the narrative responses
address the needs for the entire county, with specific references to the City of Newport Beach.
Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing.
In the upcoming five years, OCHNs goals are:
• Apply for additional housing assistance funding and programs that may become available.
• Explore the use of Project -Based Housing Choice Vouchers or other housing funds
to promote the construction or acquisition activities that will result in additional
units or developments that will servespecial needs populations.
• Ensure consistent quality of assisted housing services by maintaining high performer status in
Section Eight Management Assessment Program (SEMAP) scores.
• Promote Family Self -Sufficiency incentives and homeownership opportunities
for Housing ChoiceVoucher participants in partnership with local programs
and related service providers.
• Expand assisted housing choices by conducting outreach efforts to increase the
number of propertyowners and their participation in housing assistance
programs.
• Identify and utilize technology to enhance operational effectiveness and
efficiency in delivery ofhousing assistance services.
Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and
participate inhomeownership.
OCHA supports resident councils and actively seeks input from PHA residents on the management and
implementation of OCHA policies and procedures.
Housing prices in Orange County are so high that homeownership opportunities are limited for OCHA
residents. On a limited basis, OCHA has partnered with Habitat for Humanity to provide two affordable
homeownership units, but these types of efforts are limited.
OCHA also manages a Housing Choice Voucher Homeownership Program that it markets to all OCHA
program tenants.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities - 91.220(i)
Introduction
The City will invest CDBG funds during the 2024-2025 program year to address high priority needs identified in
the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan including preventing homelessness and providing public services to
homeless populations.
Homelessness Prevention Services
The Point In Time is a biennial count of people experiencing homelessness on a given night that takes place
during the last ten days in January. The count provides vital information that helps the County better understand
homelessness in the community and guides the way the County and its partners respond to homelessness in
Orange County.
There was not a Point In Time Count conducted in 2023. The County of Orange and Orange County CoC
conducted the sheltered count the night of Monday, February 21, 2022. Emergency Shelters and
Transitional Housing Programs collected participant -level demographic information from individuals and
families staying the night in each program. The 2022 Unsheltered Count process took place over three days
- Tuesday, February 22 through Thursday, February 24 - to ensure the 800 square mile Orange County
jurisdiction was canvassed effectively. This methodology allowed the count teams to collect unique ID data
points that were used to deduplicate records for the three-day street count process. The survey data was
collected with ArcGIS Survey 123, a phone application that captures GIS locations and provides vital
information that guides the way the County responds to homelessness in Orange County. The methodology
for the 2022 Everyone Counts process provides the most accurate data on the scope of homelessness in
Orange County, ensuring that Everyone Counts.
According to the results of the most recent data available from the bi-annual Point -In -Time Homeless Count
(PIT Count) held on February 2 I , 2022, on any given night in Newport Beach, approximately 96 people are
homeless. To address incidences of homelessness in Newport Beach and to prevent extremely -low income
Newport Beach families from becoming homeless, the City places a high priority on programs that work to
prevent homelessness or rapidly assist homeless individuals living in the community. To address this need, the
City will support CDBG public service activities that help prevent homelessness and that provide a structured
path to stable housing for individuals and families who become homeless.
Services for Residents with Special Needs
Analysis of available data and consultation with organizations providing services for special needs populations
revealed a need for a range of additional services including, but not limited to, those concerned with domestic
violence, human trafficking, mental disabilities, physical disabilities, developmental disabilities, substance
abuse/alcoholism and HIV/AIDS that may be addressed by non-profit organizations. Non-profit organizations
currently exist to fulfill some of these needs of individuals. Organizations such as Human Options, an Orange

County -based non-profit that provides assistance to individuals experiencing domestic violence. Laura's House
provides emergency shelter to women and children fleeing domestic violence situations. Radiant Health Centers
provides services for those with HIV/AIDS such as free HIV and Hepatitis C testing.
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including reachingout
to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
To reach out to unsheltered homeless persons and assess their individual needs for the purpose of connecting
them with available emergency shelter and transitional housing resources, the City of Newport Beach, throughits
Planning Division will provide information and referrals — primarily to 2-1-1 Orange County. Additionally, to
reduce and end homelessness, the City of Newport Beach will provide CDBG public service funds to the following
activities:
• Families Forward: Housing Program (25 people)
• Newport Beach Motel Voucher Program (30 people)
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
The City has taken several steps to address this very complex issue. City staff and City Net, a contractor that
assists with community outreach and case management services, work in collaboration to engage these individuals
and connect them with services such as emergency housing, mental and health care, benefits counseling and a
variety of other community -based programs and services. It is not uncommon for individuals to be resistant to
engagement at first. The more successful interventions are built upon a pattern of consistent engagement and
building trust so that the individual will be able to accept the assistance that will lead to a lasting solution to their
homelessness.
The City has a dedicated, full-time police officer and a homeless coordinator who focus on the issue of
homelessness. The Homeless Liaison Officer works closely with the County of Orange Health Care Agency's case
management staff and City Net to provide homeless outreach services. The uniqueness of each homeless
individual's situation requires an individual approach. Since everyone's needs are different, City staff works with
homeless individuals on a case -by -case basis.
It is important to understand that individuals are often resistant to seeing case workers or police officers assigned
to work with those experiencing homelessness. Multiple visits may be required before gaining a person's trust in a
way that opens a conversation about solutions. That is why, in addition to the full-time officer, the City has
contracted with City Net to provide homeless outreach services. Street outreach services seeks to connect
unsheltered homeless individuals with emergency shelter, housing, critical services, healthcare, or urgent, non -
facility -based care.
Newport Beach has entered a partnership with the City of Costa Mesa for shelter beds at the Costa Mesa Bridge
Shelter, which opened in Spring 2021. In addition to temporary housing, the Bridge Shelter provides case workers
who assist homeless individuals with addiction and mental health counseling, job searches, and accessing permanent
housing.

Cities and counties are obligated to follow state laws, federal laws and court rulings that define the parameters of
what can and cannot be done when addressing the impacts of homelessness. Newport Beach, along with the rest of
the cities in Orange County, must follow and comply with those laws and court rulings.
In September 2018, the United States Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that if there is no option for sleeping
indoors, the government cannot criminalize individuals experiencing homelessness from sleeping outdoors on public
property. As a result, the federal judge overseeing Orange County's homeless issues was asked to block cities from
enforcing anti -camping laws if the city does not have an adequate, alternative sleeping location for individuals
experiencing homelessness, such as a shelter bed or other housing.
To address the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless people, the City supports the Families
Forward Housing Program that provides transitional housing, counseling, and case management tofamilies at risk
of homelessness. Each year, Families Forward serves approximately 25 additional unduplicated people because of
CDBG funding. In addition, the City will support a City -run motel voucher program to assist 30 homeless individuals.
Other organizations in the Continuum of Care (CoC) addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housingneeds
of homeless persons include City Net, Orange Coast Interfaith Shelter, Orange County Rescue Missionand
WISEPIace.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children,
veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and
independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness,
facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and
families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again.
To address the needs of homeless families, families with children, veterans and their families, the City supportsthe
Families Forward Housing Program, which provides transitional housing, counseling, and case management to families
at risk of homelessness. Each year, Families Forward serves approximately 25 unduplicated Newport Beach residents
through its transitional housing program. When paired with financial counseling, career coaching and other
available case management services, Families Forward makes certain that families are ready to succeed in their
transition to permanent housing.
In addition, Trellis International is a local non-profit organization which provides volunteer opportunities for
individuals experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity to learn and/or rebuild job skills and a path toward
stable employment and housing. Through volunteer projects managed by Trellis' Community Impact Team
(CIT), participants develop and refine job skills needed to reenter the job market and remain employed. The
projects in Newport Beach may include cleanup of beaches, hiking trails, parking lots, piers and other public
areas, graffiti removal, vegetation trimming and removal, and more.
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 correctionsprograms and
institutions); or, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health,social services,
employment, education, or youth needs
50 1 Page
15-63
The Orange County CoC Ten Year Plan to End Homelessness included a goal to establish countywide protocols
and procedures to prevent people from being discharged from public and private institutions of careinto homelessness
that will help decrease the number of persons being discharged into homelessness. The CoC is seeking improve
coordination among publicly and privately funded institutions of care and local serviceagencies in the County of
Orange in order to decrease the number of persons being discharged into homelessness annually.
City Net is an organization that coordinates outreach among homeless service providers in the county with vulnerable
homeless neighbors. City Net collects data for a Homeless Services Dashboard Report with frequent meetings on how
to improve public services that enables organizations in Newport Beach to better coordinatetheir efforts and leverage
key synergies.
Preventing and ending homelessness is a HUD priority addressed nationally through coordination of regional strategies
carried out locally by government agencies and a wide variety of community -based organizations andfaith-based groups.
Consistent with this approach, the City of Newport Beach supports the efforts of Orange County Continuum of
Care (CoC) and its member organizations that address homelessness throughout Orange County. In alignment
with this strategy, the City will use CDBG funds to support local service providerswith programs to prevent
homelessness and to expand the supply of affordable housing in Newport Beachfor low- and moderate -income
residents.
Discussion
The City of Newport Beach considers ending and preventing homelessness a high priority and will supportCDBG
public service activities that help prevent homelessness and that provide a structured path to stablehousing for
individuals and families who become homeless.
A mobile crisis intervention program to address mental health issues in the community is up and running in
Newport Beach, The Be Well OC Mobile Crisis Response Team is working closely with City's public safety
departments to address mental health challenges among the City's homeless population, as well as residents
and visitors who may be experiencing a mental health crisis.
Under the Be Well OC program, Newport Beach now has a dedicated two -person team of experienced crisis
counselors working 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. The team responds to mental health calls for service to the
Police Department's non -emergency or 91 1 call lines. Individuals may be transported to Be Well OC's local
crisis center, or a detox facility or shelter, as needed. The service provides direct mental health intervention
and will reduce the need for police and emergency medical services in these cases.
The Be Well OC program supplements and augments the City's current efforts to address homelessness, which
include a shelter partnership with the City of Costa Mesa, and the pilot program with Trellis International
providing volunteer opportunities for individuals experiencing homelessness to learn and/or rebuild job skills
and a path toward stable employment and housing.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable 11DLISillg - 91.220(1)
Introduction:
A barrier to affordable housing is a public policy or nongovernmental condition that constrains the developmentor
rehabilitation of affordable housing, such as land use controls, property taxes, state prevailing wage
requirements, environmental protection, cost of land and availability of monetary resources. Barriers to
affordable housing are distinguished from impediments to fair housing choice in the sense that barriers arelawful
and impediments to fair housing choice are usually unlawful.
Based on information gathered during community meetings, the Consolidated Plan Needs Assessment Survey,the
2014-2021 Housing Element and market analysis, the primary barriers to affordable housing in Newport Beach are
housing affordability and the lack of monetary resources necessary to develop and sustain affordablehousing. The two
barriers are related in the sense that demand for affordable housing exceeds the supply and insufficient resources
are available to increase the supply of affordable housing to meet demand.
For low- and moderate -income households, finding and maintaining decent affordable housing is difficult dueto the
high cost of housing in Newport Beach and throughout the region in general. Over 20 percent of theCity's 38,075
households experience a cost burden or severe cost burden, meaning that they pay more than 30 or 50 percent of
their income for housing, respectively. Consistent with available data, responses to the2020-2024 Consolidated
Plan Needs Assessment Survey indicate a high need for additional affordable housing in Newport Beach.
Actions 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
In the development of the 2021-2029 Housing Element, the City evaluated significant public policies affecting
affordable housing. The Housing Element identifies and analyzes the Cit/s existing and projected housing needs. The Housing
Element contains a detailed outline and work program of the Citys goals, policies, and quantified objectives for the preservation,
improvement, and development of housing for a sustainable future. This indudes timelines for the City to accomplish each identified
action within the Housing Plan.
As is common in many communities, a variety of constraints affect the provisions and opportunities for adequate housing in the City
of Newport Beach. Housing constraints consist of both governmental constraints, including but not limited to land use controls,
development fees and permitting fees, development standards, building codes and permitting processes; as well as, nongovernmental
or market constraints, including but not limited to land costs, construction costs, and availability of finances. Combined, these factors
create barriers to availability and affordability of new housing, especially for louver and moderate -income households.
On September 13, 2021 the Newport Beach City Council adopted an update to its Housing Bement for the 2021-2029 planning
cycle in response to the 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation of 4,845 new housing units for Newport
Beach. On October 5, 2022, the City received a letter from HCD certifying the Citys Housing Element as being in full compliance
with State Housing Element Law.

Discussion:
To address housing affordability and the lack of monetary resources for affordable housing, the City's goals, policies,
and programs will be aimed at providing additional housing opportunities, removing governmental constraints to
affordable housing, improving the condition of existing housing, and providing equal housing opportunities for all
residents. These goals, policies, and programs further the City's overall housing policy goal to encourage a more diverse,
sustainable, and balanced community through implementation of strategies and programs that will result in economically
and socially diversified housing choices that preserve and enhance the special character of Newport Beach.
The City of Newport Beach has identified the following housing goals as part of the 2021-2029 General Plan
Housing Element:
• Quality residential development and preservation, conservation, and appropriate redevelopment
of housing stock.
• A balanced residential community, comprised of a variety of housing types, designs, and
opportunities for all social and economic segments.
• Housing opportunities for as many renter- and owner -occupied households as possible in
response to the demand for housing in the City.
• Preservation and increased affordability of the City's housing stock for extremely low-, very
low—, low-, and moderate -income households.
• Housing opportunities for special needs populations.
• Equal housing opportunities for all residents.
• Effective and responsive housing programs and policies.
The goals listed above are described in further detail in the Housing Plan.
As directed by the recently adopted 2021-2029 General Plan Housing Element, the City is developing an
inclusionary housing program that would require developers to provide a minimum percentage of lower -and
moderate -income dwelling units within new residential developments. The City is considering several policies,
regulations, and incentives to help achieve the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation of 4,845
new housing units that the City must plan for over the next 8 years. Of the total RHNA, about 7 1 % must be
planned to accommodate moderate- and [ower-income households.

AP-85 Other Actions - 91.220(k)
Introduction:
In the implementation of the 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan, the City will invest CDBG resources to address obstacles
to meeting underserved needs, reduce the number of poverty -level families, develop institutional structure and enhance
coordination between public and private social service agencies.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs
The primary obstacles to meeting the underserved needs of low- and moderate -income people include lack offending
from federal, state, and other local sources, and the high cost of housing that is not affordable to low- income people.
To address these obstacles, the City is investing CDBG funds through the 2024-2025 Action Plan in projects that provide
assistance to those with special needs, projects that prevent homelessness, and strengthen economic opportunities for
low- and moderate -income residents. To address underserved needs, the City is allocating 100 percent of its non -
administrative CDBG investments for program year 2024-2025 toprojects and activities that benefit low- and
moderate -income people or people presumed under HUD regulations to be low- and moderate -income.
Actions planned to foster- and maintain affordable housing
In the implementation of the 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan, the City will continue to look at alternate fundingsources
and programs to preserve and maintain existing affordable housing such as the County's Residential Rehabilitation
Program.
Actions planned to reduce lead -based paint hazards
The City of Newport Beach will administer a Residential Rehabilitation Program. The City will disseminate brochures
provided by the U.S, Environmental Protection Agency to all applicants as part of the transmittal of the program
application. Anyunit receiving assistance through the program that was built prior to January I, 1978, will be tested
for lead -based paint. If lead -based paint is present, appropriate abatement procedures are implemented as part of the
rehabilitation contract consistent with the requirements of 24 CFR Part 35.
Actions planned to reduce the number- of poverty -level families
The implementation of activities funded with other non-CDBG federal, state and local resources will support
the City's effort in reducing the number of poverty -level families by:
• Supporting activities that expand the supply of housing that is affordable to low- and moderate- income
households, including investment of the City's Housing Trust Fund resources and using theState Density Bonus
law to incentivize the development of additional affordable housing units;
• Supporting a continuum of housing and public service programs to prevent and eliminatehomelessness;
• Supporting housing preservation programs that ensure low-income households have a safe, decentand
appropriate place to live; and
• Supporting public services through various nonprofits funded by CDBG that serve the community's
541Page

youth, seniors, families and those with special needs.
In addition to these local efforts, mainstream state and federal resources also contribute to reducingthe numberof individuals
and families in poverty. Federal programs such as the Earned Income Tax Credit and Head Start provide a pathway out
of poverty for families who are ready to pursue employment and educational opportunities. Additionally in California,
the primary programs that assist families in poverty are CaIWORKs, CalFresh (formerly food stamps) and Medi-Cal.
Together, these programs provide individuals and families withemployment assistance, subsidy for food, medical care,
childcare and cash payments to meet basic needs such as housing, nutrition, and transportation. Other services are available
to assist persons suffering from substanceabuse, domestic violence, and mental illness.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
The institutional delivery system in Newport Beach is high -functioning and collaborative — particularly therelationship
between local government and the nonprofit sector comprised of a network of capable community -based organizations
that are delivering a full range of services to residents. Organizations such as City Net coordinate housing support groups
to increase coordination and leverage key synergies to improve resident outcomes. Affordable housing development and
preservation activities will be carried out by thePlanning Division of the Community Development Department in
partnership with other agencies. Publicservice activities will be carried out by nonprofit organizations to achieve the
Strategic Plan goals. The PlanningDivision and the Engineering Department will work together with contractors to
implement public facilityimprovement projects.
One of the keyways the City is developing and expanding institutional structure to meet underserved needs isby funding a
wide variety of services targeted to seniors, special needs populations and individuals or families at risk of homelessness
with CDBG public service grants.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies
To enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies, the City will continueconsulting
with and inviting the participation of a wide variety of agencies and organizations involved in thedelivery of housing and
supportive services to low- and moderate -income residents in Newport Beach.
Discussion
In the implementation of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, the City will invest CDBG resources to address obstacles to
meeting underserved needs, reduce the number of poverty -level families, develop institutional structure and enhance
coordination between public and private social service agencies.
