Approved by: r e, a Oui;ano Finance Director i° 7 LL/10 it LL/ FA TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: W -Wooer- CITY OF BALDWIN PARK MAY 5 ITEM N0. 5- STAFF REPORT Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council , 1,7, ( Edwin "William" Galvez, Director of Public Works May 5, 2010 RESOLUTION 2010 -014 INITIATING THE PROCEEbINGS AND ORDERING PREPARATION OF THE ENGINEER'S REPORT FOR THE CITYWIDE LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT DISTRICT FOR FY 2010 -11 This report requests that the City Council consider the adoption of the attached resolution which would authorize the initiation of the FY 2010 -11 Citywide Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Assessment District and order the preparation of the Engineer's Report. The City has an annual program for the maintenance of landscaping and lighting improvements, as well as open space improvements, including the maintenance and operation of traffic signals, street lights, median landscaping, and street trees. It is recommended that we continue this program and fund it through the annual special assessments. This program and its corresponding assessments have been done every year for many years. The adoption of a resolution is required to initiate the proceedings and order the preparation of an Engineer's Report. DISCUSSION Each year, the City Council re- establishes the Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Assessment District (LLMD) with the purpose of establishing the legal mechanism to collect assessments to cover the related expenditures. The costs are distributed by equitably assessing properties in accordance with special benefits received from the improvements. Such revenues will serve to cover the cost of maintenance and operation of the landscaping and lighting system within the LLMD. Resolution 2010 -014 Ordering the LLMD Engineer's Report Page 2 of 3 May 5, 2010 The first step is ordering the preparation of an Engineer's Report, which contains the engineering study, the details of the assessments and its legal justification, and the assessment methodologies, all of which are ultimately required in order to submit the assessments to the Los Angeles County Assessors Office. Pursuant to the State of California Streets and Highways Code, the City of Baldwin Park must utilize the following steps to establish the annual levy for the Citywide Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District. 1. The City Council orders the preparation and filing of the Engineer's Report. 2. After receiving the Engineer's Report, the City Council adopts a resolution of intent to levy and collect assessments, and sets a date for a public hearing. 3. The City Council conducts a public hearing and adopts a resolution confirming the diagram and assessments, either as originally proposed or in its modified state. Over the last 17 years, the Engineer's Report has been prepared adhering to the procedures established in the 1972 Landscaping and Lighting Act, which the City has continued to use through FY 2009 -10. As in the previous years, the City must follow the same procedures such as preparation of an Engineer's Report and a public hearing in order to proceed with levying assessments. As a result of Proposition 218, which was passed in 1997, new or increased assessments, or existing assessments not used exclusively to fund capital costs or O &M, may not be imposed. Over the last eleven years, the City Council has supported staff's recommendation to rely on an exemption in Prop 218 which allows the renewal of these LLMD assessments so long_ as the rates are not changed. If the assessment rates are desired changed, then the balloting requirements under that proposition must be fulfilled. Last year's report was prepared by the firm of Bureau Veritas for a fee of $8,500. Bureau Veritas has since disengaged itself from providing financial services to government entities such as developing this Engineer's Report. However, the two individuals that have been responsible for our reports over the last decade, Cathy Shepherd and Chuck Crandall, have teamed up to form Community Economic Solutions (CES). This company specializes in financial services, and they certainly have the expertise, training, and background to provide us with assessment engineering services. They have the general liability insurance and can perform our assessment engineering services to prepare the FY 2010 -11 Engineer's Report, attend any necessary public hearings, and submit the assessment roll to the Los Angeles County Auditor - Controller's Office for a fee of $7,800. Resolution 2010 -014 Ordering the LLMD Engineer's Report Page 3 of 3 May 5, 2010 FISCAL IMPACT The Engineer's Report will include more refined detail of anticipated revenues and costs. The approved Budget for FY 2010 -11 anticipates that revenue for Fund 251 — Street Light and Landscape will be $1,758,400 which includes LLMD assessments estimated at $908,400 and Ad- Valorem revenue estimated at $850,000.

BACKGROUND The Summer Lunch Program provides over 52,695 lunches and 4,905 snacks to children of the community with nutritious meals each weekday throughout the summer. Lunch meals requires four (4) of the following components: one (1) serving of milk, one (1) serving of grains /bread, one (1) serving of meat or meat alternate, two (2) or more servings of vegetables and /or fruits. Snack only requires two (2) of the following four (4) components: one (1) milk, one (1) fruit /vegetable, one (1) grain or (1) meat /meat alternative. The lunch meals are served at nine (9) elementary schools, four (4) parks, and one (1) snack location for a total of fourteen locations throughout the City. The program is funded through the State of California Department of Education through a grant from the United States Department of Agriculture. Schnnl Sites- Santa Fe School Pleasant View Elementary School Bursch Elementary School Vineland Elementary School Tracy Elementary School Geddes Elementary School Walnut Elementary School Kenmore Elementary School Foster Elementary School Snack Location: Morgan Park DISCUSSION Park Sites: Morgan Park Hilda L. Solis Park Walnut Creek Nature Park Barnes Park Staff has prepared an application with a program budget to participate in the 2010 Summer Page Two Lunch Program. As in previous years, the City will serve lunch and snacks at various sites as indicated in the application throughout the summer. Staff has also submitted an application to the Baldwin Park School Unified District for approval to serve lunch at (9) school sites. The program will commence on June 28, 2010 and will continue through August 20, 2010. Meals will be provided free of charge at various times and locations throughout the City to allow all children to participate. Schedules are adjusted at sites offering summer school to accommodate children attending school. Under the program guidelines, the City can contract with a local school district to provide meals without going through a formal bid process. The City contacted Baldwin Park Unified School District to provide the service however; they are not able to accommodate our request. Therefore, the City has contracted once again with the El Monte Union High School District as it has for the past seventeen (17) years to prepare and deliver meals consistent with the California Department of Education Nutrition Services Division guidelines. Staff has met with representatives from the El Monte Union High School District and they have agreed to prepare and deliver program meals to each site on a fifteen (15) day cycle menu. The cost per lunch is $2.90 and $.85 per snack. FISCAL IMPACT The administrative and operational cost for the Summer Lunch Program is $200,000. The General Fund has a match of $25,000, which is included in the budget. The cost of this program is reimbursed by the State of California Department of Education with the exception of the City's match. Staff recommends that the City Council: Authorize staff to submit an application to the State of California, Department of Education to participate in the 2010 Summer Lunch Program; and 2. Authorize the Director of Recreation and Community Services to execute all Summer Lunch Program documents, including the agreement with El Monte Union High School District.

CLIENT shall indemnify, hold harmless, and defend PYRO from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liability and expenses, including but not limited to, attorney and other professional fees and court costs in connection with the loss of life, personal injury, and /or damage to property, arising from or out of the Production and the presentation thereof to die extent such are occasioned by any act or omission of CLIENT, its officers, agents, contractors, providers, or employees. In no event shall either party be liable for the consequential damages of the other party. 1 1. Limitation of Damages for Ordinary Breach - Except in the case of bodily injury and property damage as provided in the insurance and indemnification provisions of Paragraphs 9 and 10, above, in the event CLIENT claims that PYRO has breached this Agreement or was otherwise negligent in performing the Production provided for herein, CLIENT shall not be entitled to claim or recover monetary damages from PYRO beyond the amount CLIENT has paid to PYRO under this Agreement, and shall not be entitled to claim or recover any consequential damages from PYRO including, without limitation, damages for loss of income, business or profits, 12. Force Maieure - CLIENT agrees to assume the risks of weather, strike, civil unrest, terrorism, military action, governmental action, and any other causes beyond the control of PYRO which may prevent the Production from being safely discharged on the scheduled date, which may cause the cancellation of any event for which CLIENT has purchased the Production, or which may affect or damage such portion of the exhibits as must be placed and exposed a necessary time before the Production. if, for any such reason, PYRO is not reasonably able to safely discharge the Production on the scheduled date, or at the scheduled time, or should any event for which CLIENT has purchased the Production be canceled as a result of such causes, CLIENT may (i) reschedule the Production and pay PYRO such sums as provided in Paragraph 13, or (ii) cancel the Production and pay PYRO such sums as provided in Paragraph 14, based upon when the Production is canceled. 13. Rescheduling Ot'Event - If CLIENT elects to reschedule the Production, PYRO shall be paid the original Fee plus all additional expenses made necessary by rescheduling plus a 15% service fee on such additional expenses. Said expenses will be invoiced separately and payment will be due in full within 5 days of receipt. CLIENT and PYRO shall agree upon the rescheduled date taking into consideration availability of permits, materials, equipment, transportation and labor. The Production shall be rescheduled for a date not more than 90 Days subsequent to the date first set for the Production. The Production shall not be rescheduled to a date, or for an event, that historically has involved a fireworks production. The Production shall not be rescheduled between June 15th and July 15th unless the original date was July 4th of that same year, or between December 15th and January 15th unless the original date was December 31st of the earlier year unless PYRO agrees that such rescheduling will not adversely affect normal business operations during those periods. 14. Rh4ht To Cancel — CLIENT shall have the option to unilaterally cancel the Production prior to the scheduled date. If CLIENT exercises this option, CLIENT agrees to pay to PYRO, as liquidated damages, the following percentages of the Fee as set forth in Paragraph 3.1. 1) 50% if cancellation occurs 30 to 90 days prior to the scheduled date, 2) 75% if cancellation occurs 15 to 29 days prior to the scheduled date, 3) 100% thereafter. In the event CLIENT cancels the Production, it will be impractical or extremely difficult to fix actual amount of PYRO's damages. The foregoing represents a reasonable estimate of the damages PYRO will suffer if CLIENT cancels the Production. 15. No Joint Venture - It is agreed, nothing in this Agreement or in PYRO's performance of the Production shall be construed as forming a partnership or Joint venture between CLIENT and PYRO. PYRO shall be and is an independent contractor with CLIENT and not an employee of CLIENT.

ESPL -5323 (018) - FTIP NO.: LAES411 TO SULLY- MILLER CONTRACTING COMPANY IN THE AMOUNT OF $833,411. This report requests that the City Council consider an award of a contract for the construction of the Roadway Rehabilitation of Ramona A — 1 -605 to Francisquito Avenue, Federal Project No. ESPL 5323 (018) — FTIP No.: LASS 411 to Sully - Miller Contracting Company in the amount of $833,411. I Last _near, this City made preparations to ensure the City had shovel ready projects to fully utilize Stimulus funds that the Federal administration was making available under ARRA infrastructure funding. After successfully applying and qualifying for funds, the amount that the City was allocated was approximately $2.4 million. The two projects approved by the Federal highway Administration (FHWA) and Caltrans are the Ramona A and Ramona B improvements as follows: (1) Ramona A - Ramona Boulevard, I -605 to Francisquito Avenue, and (2) Ramona B - Ramona Boulevard, Francisquito Avenue to Merced Avenue. This project consists of the (1) Ramona A - 1 -605 to Francisquito Avenue, and includes rehabilitating the roadway pavement on Ramona Boulevard from 1 -605 to Francisquito Avenue. Essentially the work involves repairing concrete improvements and placing a rubberized asphalt concrete overlay. Concrete repairs include replacing damaged curb and gutters, cross - gutters, spandrels, sidewalks, and drive - approaches. Related work includes repainting traffic stripes and pavement markings, performing irrigation and landscaping upgrades and repairs, and planting trees and performing hardscape modification in the medians. Award a Contract for Ramon A Roadway Rehabilitation Page 2 of 3 May 5, 2010 Based on the quantities listed in the Contractor's Bid Proposal, the construction cost was estimated to be in the range of $800,000 to $850,000. On February 17, 2010, the City Council approved the plans and specifications, and authorized staff to advertise the Project for construction bids. Prior to this authorization, Staff had already received notice of funding authorization from FHWA which meant that the City could now proceed. Staff advertised the project by publishing a "Notice Inviting Bids" in accordance with the provisions of the Government Code and in accordance to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) requirements. DISCUSSION On April 13, 2010, ten (10) bids were received, opened, and declared publicly. The bid opening minutes is shown in Attachment 1. The competitiveness of the bids is summarized in a table of bids received which is shown in Attachment 2. Staff performed a bids analysis and has determined that the lowest responsive bid was submitted by Sully - Miller Contracting Company in the amount of $833,411. This contractor has recently completed similar roadway improvements for the Cities of West Hollywood, La Mirada and South El Monte. This Contractor has a Class A - General Engineering Contractors' license in good standing with the State Contractors' Board. A background search shows no irregularities regarding this Contractor. The proof of contractor's license is shown in Attachment 3. Sully - Miller Contracting Company will also be encouraged o participate in the City's newly adopted policy which provides incentives to contractors to encourage the hiring of City residents /businesses for City administered construction contracts. Staff will work L W _ r_i_:1.., policy with the ('�ontrac firm the le el f their ;nines +inn out tn� Uetans of this policy with I tIIC lwl ludl.tor to confirm t11Ci level of t1IC11 partl,.INauv11. If the City Council authorizes the award of a construction contract, the City must first obtain concurrence of the award by FHWA through Caltrans. On April 27, 2010, staff met with Caltrans to perform a Pre -Award Audit. This is a necessary step in order to ensure Federal funding. The pre -award audit went well, and there were no findings to correct. Upon award of a construction contract, the City will be required to send an award package along with a pre -award audit checklist to Caltrans for review prior to the start of construction. Other audit related issues were that the Construction Management process to engage a consultant was also approved, so the City may now look forward to initiating construction in June 2010. There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund associated with this project. Staff has obtained authorization from FHWA to expend up to $950,000 of Federal funds for the construction of this project, including contingencies. Expenditures of authorized Federal funds will be fully reimbursed.

Total Current Commitment $900,531 Available Contingency Funds $49,469 The City's standard practice has been to provide the Public Works Director with the authority to expend up to 10% in contingency funds. This amount is $83,341. Since there are only $49,469 in contingency from the ARRA FHWA funds, staff recommends authorizing the difference of $33,872 using the fund balance in TCRF Fund 242. These funds would only be used if absolutely necessary. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council: 1. Award a Construction Contract to Sully - Miller Contracting Company in the amount of $833,411; and Z Authorize the Mayor to execute the attached agreement; and 3. Authorize the Director of Public Works to execute any necessary change orders in an amount not to exceed ten percent (10 %) of the original contract. ATTACHMENTS 1. Bid Opening Minutes 2.

ESPL -5323 (018) - FTIP NO.: LAES411 TO CIVILSOURCE, INC. IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $67,120 This report requests that City Council consider an award of a contract to Civilsource, Inc. in the amount of $67,120 to perform turn -key Construction Management of the Ramona A — 1 605 to Francisquito Roadway Rehabilitation, Federal Project No. ESPL- 5323 (018) — FTIP No.: LAES 411. : _ . 9 Last year, this City made preparations to ensure the City had shovel ready projects to fully utilize Stimulus funds that the Federal Highway Administration (FHVVA) was making available under ARRA infrastructure funding. After successfully applying and qualifying for funds, the amount allocated to the City is approximately $2.4 million. The two projects approved by the FHWA and Caltrans are the Ramona A and Ramona B improvements as follows: (1) Ramona A - Ramona Boulevard, 1 -605 to Francisquito Avenue, and (2) Ramona B - Ramona Boulevard, Francisquito Avenue to Merced Avenue. These two projects are separate and cannot be commingled, and each has its own funding package. Ramona A has funding totaling $950,000 at a 100% funding formula which means that no matching funds are necessary and all $950,000 is available for the construction and construction management of this project. Ramona B has funding totaling $1.5 million also for construction and construction management, but requires a $70,000 local match. This report is for the construction management of the Ramona A improvements only. Award Construction Management for Ramona A Improvements Page 2 of 5 May 5, 2010 DISCUSSION Caltrans and Staff have reviewed the plans, specifications, and estimate for the Ramona A Improvements, and Caltrans authorized the City to proceed with construction, and to initiate the process of engaging a professional consultant to manage construction. On February 17, 2010, the City Council authorized staff to advertise the project for construction bids. In order to control construction and ensure project delivery within budget, on time, and at high quality expectations, staff followed the federal guidelines to select a consultant to perform construction management. Strict adherence to federal guidelines will ensure that the cost of the consultant services will be reimbursed, but more importantly, the City must ensure that the construction contractor adhere many strict federal documentation requirements. The turn key construction management services will also provide files management in a specified formatting standard. Having an experienced and knowledgeable construction management firm will ensure that the project is delivered per the City's expectations, but also that the City is reimbursed to the maximum amount allowed. Because the projects were submitted for funding consideration with very little time to fully develop precise plans, a creative construction manager is very important to ensure that the City's vision is implemented on the aesthetic project elements that were not designed, but that are expected to be completed. These include the entry monument adjacent to the 1 -605, hardscape, and landscape improvements that are essentially design -build component of the overall project. This is in addition to providing detailed technical oversight so that all necessary street repairs are addressed prior to paving operations. Construction Manager (CM) Selection Audit on the selection of the CM The construction bidding and the CM selection process was audited by Caltrans on April 27, 2010. Caltrans approved our method of selecting a CM, and there were no audit findings on our process which means we are on track with following strict guidelines and keeping proper documentation. Another round of audits will be performed during construction by FHWA on the selection process. Federal Requirements on Selecting a CM In order to engage a consultant, the City must advertise the RFP with: • Desired scope • Identification of the selection process • Indication how the proposals will be rated (Proposal rating Criteria / Form) - Appropriate selection procedure is the Caltrans / Federal Guideline "One Step RFP, followed by Interviews /Presentation. - Proposal Rating is the Caltrans /Federal recommended FORM and the rating criteria as spelled out on the FORM - Final selection may not involve consideration of cost. Award Construction Management for Ramona A Improvements Page 3 of 5 May 5, 2010 Once final selection was determined, then scope of work and cost was negotiated to a fair and reasonable level. A reasonable level is subjective, but generally involves looking at other top proposals to consider scope and cost. The body of proposals defines a frame in terms of scope, man -hour effort, and cost. From the Caltrans and FHWA auditors perspective, reasonable does not include negotiating to a lowest cost, rather it focuses on ensuring the best scope is obtained at a reasonable cost for those services. That cost could be the average cost of the top proposals. Findings resulting from Caltrans and Federal audits have no leniency, and therefore they recommend engaging the best services to give local agencies the best chance for full project delivery and full reimbursement. Attachment 1 details the process that we followed to select the CM. The technical merits of the written proposals were contained by most if not all proposers. However, it was the firm's creativity that set the shortlisted proposals apart from a standard approach. After the written proposals were rated, the following four firms were shortlisted and invited to an interview /presentation (listed in no particular order). PBSU Transtech Civil Source Willdan The presentation format was established to include: Introduction / Presentation of firm Introduction of proposed team Firm's approach to the project Brief overview of the scope of services Both committees met just prior to the inte,views / Prese °stations and agreed to ask the following questions: 1. What service do you bring to the City of Baldwin Park which characterizes your firm? 2. How will you ensure that the improvements to be constructed are to the satisfaction of the City given that some improvement elements do not have a design to follow? a. Landscaping, irrigation, planting b. Tree locations c. Monument 3. What would you say is the most creative aspect that your team brings to the City? 4. Please explain your procedures to assure federal compliance of DBE requirements. 5. How does your firm plan on minimizing disruption to residents and businesses along the project? Award Construction Management for Ramona A Improvements Page 4 of 5 May 5, 2010 After presentations and committee discussion, each Committee member scored all four firm's presentations. The score from the proposal (50 %) and from the interview (50 %) were combined giving the rankings below: Ramona A Committee: 1 - CivilSource 2 - PBSU 3 - Willdan 4 - Transtech The committee chair discussed with both committees the possibility of reaching unanimity of a single top consultant to perform on both projects. This option was discussed, however, in light of Committee B not identifying a single top consultant, further discussion to select a single firm for two committee's was abandoned. The committee chair stressed that fees would only be used to frame the scope and cost of services, so as to help right -size scope and fees. The following is a summary of the cost proposals of the top four firms (in no particular order): Ramona A Total Hours Total Amount Civil Source 747 $67,120 PBSU 1150 $127,938 Willdan 1045 $101,740 Transtech 1101 $141,065 Committee A was satisfied with the cost proposal from CivilSource. The number of effort hours was somewhat lower that the overall average (853), and was the lowest effort from the top four proposals, but the effort could still be enhanced in areas where landscaping and monument challenges could be needed during construction. Committee discussions suggested that 40 hours could be added to ensure landscape architectural support of beautification elements of the project. In negotiations with Civilsource on the project scope and cost, Civilsource included landscape services and added 50 hours to their effort. Staff is recommending an agreement with Civilsource which now includes 797 hours for the project at the same cost proposed. The possibility of engaging Civilsource, Inc. prompted staff to review the firm's background and official standing. This firm is officially recognized as indicated in the Article of Incorporation as shown in Attachment 2. A reference check of their work reveals this firm has performed well, and a computer internet search found nothing negative about this firm as shown in Attachment 3.

The following two tables summarize the funds available for the project: Ramona A - I -605 to Francisquito - Available Funds Federal ARRA Construction Funds $831,000 ...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... ............................... Construction Management* $119,000 Total Available Funds $950,000 *Unused funds from CM may be used for construction. There is no impact on the General Fund. This project is 100% reimbursable for both construction and nnnstruntinn management up to the funding limit stated in the tahle above. Staff recommends that the City Council award a Construction Management Contract to Civilsource, Inc. in the amount not to exceed $67,120 and authorize the Mayor to execute the attached agreement. 1 Consultant Selection Details 2 Articles of Incorporation 3 Google Search 4 Consultant Services Agreement Attachment 1 Details on the Selection Process of the CM The following are the steps that Staff took in compliance with the Federal Requirements for selecting a CM. The RFP published by the City (see attached FRP) included: ❑ A scope of services along with an indication that we would be seeking a CM with creativity as some of the construction plans did not include details on the landscaping and other beautification elements of the project. • The selection procedures, a proposal rating criteria /form, and a selection schedule. • The RFP indicated that written proposals would be evaluated by a committee. • The RFP indicated that a separate committee would evaluate Ramona A and Ramona B improvements. • Clarification that the City would retain the right to award a CM contract to one firm for both projects, or may award a CM contract to two different firms, one for each project. The City established two committees: Committee A for Ramona A consisted of: • Sal Lopez • Monica Killen • Edward Torres • William Galvez (I was common to both committees) Committee B for Ramona B consisted of: • Amy Harbin • Rudy Galindo • David Lopez • William Galvez (I was common to both committees) We originally had a fifth member for each committee with Lorena Quijano, Finance Director, also participating on both committees. But due to the heavy workload of the City's budget preparation, Ms. Quijano had to withdraw from participating. ❑ The City received 14 proposals for Construction Management for each of the Ramona A and Ramona B improvements (that's 28 total — see list below). ❑ Each committee held a proposal evaluation kickoff meeting to summarize the funding and what the construction project consists of, explain the RFP, the Federal Guidelines, and the rating criteria, and to distribute the written proposals. ❑ Written proposals were evaluated by each respective committee, and a subsequent meeting was held to tabulate the results. ❑ From the tabulated results, due to the high number of proposals, an analysis was performed to determine if there was a consensus on the ratings of the bottom one - half of the 14 proposals. Staff strongly recommends not releasing any details on the bottom ratings to avoid any embarrassment of the participating firms (this is for their sake). The typical and standard practice has been to hold a meeting with firms and pass on some of the positive proposal elements that were identified, and the strengths demonstrated in the interview. ❑ Both committees independently identified the bottom eight proposals by consensus during the first round of tabulations (this is an excellent result, demonstrating the committee understood the RFP, the City's goals, and fully read the proposals). ❑ From the remaining six proposals, a consensus was not immediately reached on the top three. We discussed the differences and based on the ratings, the committee agreed the combined committee scores did result in three proposals worthy of being shortlisted. The other committee also had similar results on their top three. ❑ The two committees had two firms in common in their top three, so four firms were shortlisted to satisfy both committees' top three. At this point we informed the ten forms not invited to the interview phase that they were not short - listed. ❑ Both committees attended the interview of the top four firms, and each committee identified a top firm. ❑ Discussion amongst both committees was held to see if a single firm could be selected for both projects. A consensus was not reached, and I recommended to each committee to independently make their selection and proceed to the cost proposal phase. ❑ Cost proposals from the firms selected yielded reasonable costs, with excellent scope of work and man -hour effort. ❑ Each committee recommended that the top firm identified be engaged for CM services. The principal elements of each scope were satisfactory, and the cost was immediately deemed reasonable. We received proposals from: PBSU Transtech Willdan Engineering CivilSource, Inc. SA Associates Vali Cooper & Associates, Inc. Ghirardelli Associates, Inc. DMR Team ECM Group Axiom Corporation Savannah Tech GK & Associates AAE, Inc. Delterra The firms in italics were the bottom eight written proposals as unanimously determined by both committees.

EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF SERVICES The attached Scope of Work is a detailed document based on the Civilsource, Inc. proposal to the City dated March 15, 2010, and subsequently revised to include added services and resubmitted to the City on April 22, 2010. GA170 Projects\2 C Num -Title \2009 -005 Ramona A -B Stimulus\ SConstruction \RamonaA \CivilSourceExhibits 05- 05- 2010.doc Scope of Work The CivilSource project management team has the size, depth, and experience to be able to commit the necessary personnel to meet your schedules and deadlines. We are represented by highly experienced construction professionals who have proven track records managing the construction of city projects. We have reviewed the Scope of Work as outlined in the Request for Proposal. CivilSource views construction management not simply as a list of tasks grouped by category but as a sequential and thorough process in which we have identified four phases: preconstruction, project start -up, construction and close -out. We will provide all services listed in the RFP and any of the following tasks we feel may be required to meet the project objectives. Our tasks during this phase will include Bid /Award coordination (including bid proposal review and recommendation, pre - qualification investigations, and ensuring DBE goals are met), thorough review of 100% design documents, preparing Construction Management Procedures Manuals, establishing project files, and other tasks that are undertaken in the Pre - Construction Phase. This phase is essential to establishing communications, setting protocols, and building the procedural _framework for the project. In particular, we establish communications between the project team, including the construction management team, City staff, the engineering design team, the Contractor, utility companies, and other essential parties at interest, to the resolution of construction issues. The following discussion briefly explains our approach. s Review project plans and specifications to become fully familiar with the project requirements and notify the City of any design ambiguities. As part of this service and to reduce any future change orders, CivilSource will walk the project with the project designer so that any final revisions to the contract documents can be made prior to bidding. ♦ Provide a concept drawing for the median within these project limits. CivilSource will manage development of a concept drawing for the redesign of existing median noses and monumentation implementation. Manage development of and submittal to the City the concept drawing which will show removal of trees per the project plan and specifications. Median noses will be designed as a common theme throughout the project limits. The scope of work for monumentation implementation will consist of the following: ✓ Five (5) meetings with City staff including an initial meeting to discuss relevant approval processes and monument design, as well as review and approval of the preliminary design. ✓ Preliminary Design and Refinement ✓ Manage development of CADD detail and specifications. ✓ Cost statement ✓ Coordinating with the Contractor to implement these changes to the work. ♦ Review funding with the City of Baldwin Park to affirm the special requirements affecting the work, and identifying accounting and reporting requirements that will be followed. ♦ Develop a project specific management plan, that outlines the procedures for all team communications, reporting, review and approval of critical submittals, protocol for weekly meetings, distribution of documentation, change order procedures, and other necessary procedures in order to streamline the project. We will ensure there is buy -in from all project members prior to the start of construction. ♦ Establish and ensure implementation of a coordination plan to coordinate work (e.g. utility facility relocations) and work impact (e.g. traffic and access) with all affected agencies including utilities, police and fire departments, home owner associations and special districts. ♦ Coordinate and conduct a pre- construction meeting and prepare meeting minutes for distribution. The pre- construction meeting will cover, at a minimum, the overall project objectives, responsibilities of key personnel and agencies, schedules, schedule of values, submittal procedures, correspondence, utility relocations, local agency permit requirements, RFQ /RFI processes, progress payments, change orders, safety issues, emergency response requirements, and all other pertinent topics. CivilSource will provide opportunities to have the Contractor's questions answered and will collect all of the required submittal items at that time. ♦ Preuare for and deliver to the City. with input from the Contractor(s), an overall site logistics nlan. This plan will outline items like staging, phasing, circulation for public access to and from businesses and neighborhoods, fire department access during construction, delivery path of travel, public safety concerns, and signage required during construction of the project. ♦ Review Contractor(s) Safety Program for compliance with City standards as well as any OSHA regulations. Recommend Contractor(s) submit "site Specific" safety plans that identify the risks and liability arising from specific operations relating to the project. Approach to Tasks CivilSource will focus on the daily tasks that are required to ensure the Contractor is executing the work according to the accepted CPM baseline schedule, the design team is responding in a timely manner, the Midget IS iiiaintafined, aitu tiic City is Iiifvrhied and inVOlved on all uc%ISIVnS and aspect as the prvlc%t is delivered. Timing is critical and expedient managerial procedures will be a key factor for staying on schedule and within budget. The following discussion details some of the key tasks to be performed in the Construction Phase, and briefly explains our approach. Construction Management ♦ Work as an extension of City staff. CivilSource will serve as an extension of the City staff on this project. This is our accustomed method of working, and the best way to ensure a close working relationship and to ensure all City objectives are fully met. ♦ Provide project coordination for project control during the construction period. We will monitor the contractor's work progress, personnel, equipment and materials to ensure that adequate resources are available to meet the project schedule and that the contractor's work is in compliance with the contract documents. Coordination will include ensuring that City activities (such as bus routes, street sweeping and trash pick -up) and responsibilities are addressed and appropriately scheduled so as not to affect the progress of the work. ♦ Process Requests for Information (RFI) and ensure timely distribution to and response by appropriate project team members (City staff, Engineer, other agencies). Response to RFIs shall take no longer than 7 calendar days. We will coordinate all technical support and constructability reviews during preparation of responses to RFIs and maintain an RFI log to track closed and outstanding RFIs. ♦ Ensure an efficient submittal process beginning with the contractor submitting a submittal schedule for review within 10 calendar days after the effective date of the construction contract. CivilSource will provide technical support during review of the submittal schedule (and at a minimum weekly thereafter) to ensure compliance with the contract documents and note any matters of concern to the City, such as potential impacts to schedule. We will monitor, process, and forward for approval all submittals and ensure timely distribution to and review by appropriate project team members (City staff, engine -er, and other agencies). ♦ Review and recommend for approval the contractors' CPM baseline schedule; and upon review and acceptance, will be adopted for the remainder of the project. We will monitor work progress in accordance with this baseline schedule on a daily, weekly, monthly basis to ensure the Contractor maintains all milestone and critical -path dates. Indicated slippage will be addressed during the project meetings and written reports. ♦ Review and respond to requests for design revisions by the contractor. CivilSource will provide recommendations and forward all responses for approval to the City and /or design engineer prior to transmitting to the Contractor. a. 't' field flora a the r ici needed t e design tent Initiate and review ..,;�u orders when u change in we k o maintain t .,ig.� in We will issue field orders to the Contractor and monitor the work for compliance. Changes will be logged and recorded in the record specifications and plans. If required, we will follow -up with a change order within 14 calendar days of mutual agreement with the Contractor on pricing and conditions. ♦ Review and evaluate Contractor change orders. CivilSource will act on behalf of the City and receive, evaluate, negotiate, and recommend for approval any change orders that are submitted. We will use our expertise in evaluating change orders by applying knowledge of prevailing wage rates, material unit cost guide publications, quantity take -offs, or other measures required in order to substantiate and /or negotiate change orders. We will provide easily accessible change order information by maintaining a Change Order Log that tracks executed and potential change orders and monitors the amounts against the total construction contract. ♦ Review, and forward for approval the Contractor Payment Applications. CivilSource will conduct the monthly "pencil draft" with the contractor to review the progress to date and verify that payment applications represent work in place and are in compliance with the accepted Schedule of Values and the requirements of the construction documents. Once the payment applications are reviewed and approved, and once we have verified that the contractor's record drawings are current, the construction schedule is updated, and weekly certified payroll reports are submitted, we will forward to the City for approval. -10- Geotechnical Materials Testing We have included Willdan Geotechnical as a part of our team to perform geotechnical materials testing. The geotechnical materials and testing work consists of: ♦ Attendance at preconstruction meeting by a California Registered Geotechnical Engineer. ♦ Soils technician on site during subgrade preparation and aggregate base placement. We will conduct field testing (nuclear gauge) of compacted subgrade and aggregate materials, and collect samples of subgrade and aggregate base material. ♦ Soils technician on site during reconstruction of asphalt pavements to monitor the compaction AC and ARHM using a nuclear density gauge. ♦ Asphalt Plant batch inspection and sampling during ARHM production and start -up. ♦ Provide laboratory testing for ARHM maximum density, gradation, percent asphalt and continue witness tests by the plant for gradation and binder content. ♦ Submittal of test results daily to project construction manager and inspector. ♦ Engineering support, inspector /technician coordination, dispatch, material engineering review, test reporting, QA /QC, and administrative support services. ♦ Submittal of a final report of findings and conclusions and summary of field and laboratory testing. ♦ We will promptly submit daily reports, which will include information on field observations, sampling and testing, as well as related laboratory testing.

We will use our in -house expertise to review these reports, verify payroll amounts against wage reports, and then submit to City for filing. CivilSource will work with the Contractor to correct any and all labor compliance violations. ♦ Affirmative action /DBE documentation. ♦ Enforcement of Quality Assurance requirements. ♦ Review Certified Payroll, EEO status and fringe benefit documents from the Contractor for compliance with the Federal labor standards provisions and higher wage determination decisions (state and federal). Inspection Detailed and accurate inspection of the contractor's work is required for successful project competition. Our Resident Inspector will discuss any appropriate revisions to the Contractor's methods and coordinate with the City's project manager and inspector at all times that work is progressing. ♦ Perform daily field and quality control inspections of the Contractor's work, submittals, and construction materials to ensure all conform to the contract documents, City codes and ordinances, "Greenbook" Standard Specifications and all other applicable codes and regulations. Health and safety measures will be strictly enforced to maintain a safe construction environment. ♦ Ensure compliance with environmental regulations. The inspector will confirm that the contractor is in full compliance with the Clean Water Act and require that the Contractor provide and maintain at all times during construction devices to promptly remove and dispose of all water entering the work area. We will monitor work to ensure full compliance with NPDES regulations and coordinate all other environmental coimphance monitoring as required. ♦ Prepare daily reports detailing work completed and /or other activities for each day the contractor performs work. Daily reports will be kept in a bound notebook and will state at a minimum the date, weather conditions, progression of work, materials used, and subcontractors, equipment and employees on site. We will also prepare reports of deviations and non - conformance to specifications and provide responses in accordance with the specification requirements. Notices of Non - Compliance will be immediately delivered to the Contractor for any and all deviations. ♦ Ensure implementation of a traffic control plan that is in accordance with the latest "Work Area Traffic Control Handbook" (WATCH) manual requirements, the City's requirements, and the contract documents (Section 7 -10 of the Special Provisions). "IMULIMUMA CivilSource is committed to executing an expedient close -out schedule. We have had considerable success in outlining the requirements during the initial start of construction and monitoring progress on a monthly basis with milestones. -12- Our philosophy on such projects is that "Close -Out starts during Pre - construction." Our efforts will begin up front, to outline and anticipate all project close -out deliverables. Financial close -out is a separate critical activity, and it is best to have the Contractor negotiate final contract amounts once their subcontractors' scope of work is complete. The following discussion outlines some of the key tasks to be performed in the Close -Out Phase, and briefly explains our approach. Compile detailed punch -lists with City, Consultants, and Contractor. The CivilSource Project Manager will conduct a preliminary walk- through with the Contractor to ensure there are no blatant issues and to generate a preliminary punch -list. After completion of the preliminary punch - list items, the Project Manager will conduct a punch -list walk- through with the Consultants to generate a second punch -list, if required. After completion of the consultant's punch list items, the Project Manager will conduct the official punch -list walk- through with City staff and the Engineer (anal all subs if necessary) to generate the official and final punch list. ♦ Evaluate Contractor claims. In the event Contractor claims arise, CivilSource will act on behalf of the City to review, evaluate, negotiate and recommend rejection /approval of such claims by our in house expertise. All potential claims will be identified, logged, monitored and reported immediately to the City. We will prepare written explanations of each claim with full background of issues, proposed resolution alternatives, and resolution recommendations for action. ♦ Evaluate private party claims. We will investigate claims for damages by private parties and respond in writing within two calendar days of receipt of claim. Responses will be coordinated with the City's Project Manager and Risk Manager. Filling of the Notice to Completion. We will advise the City when this is appropriate based on all expired time and other conditions required. ♦ Review Final Payment Application. CivilSource will review for completeness and forward to City for approval, the Contractor(s) Final Application for Payment. -13- Consultant Services Agreement Exhibits Civilsource, Inc.

ESPL -5323 (019) - FTIP NO.: LAES415 TO WILLDAN ENGINEERING IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $101,740 This report requests that City Council consider an award of a contract to Willdan Engineering in the amount of $101,740 to perform turn -key Construction Management of the Ramona B — Francisquito Avenue to Merced Avenue Roadway Rehabilitation, Federal Project No. ESPL -5323 (019) — FTIP No.: LAES 415. Last year, this City made preparations to ensure the City had shovel ready projects to fully utilize Stimulus funds that the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) was making available under ARRA infrastructure funding. After successfully applying and qualifying for funds, the amount allocated to the City is approximately $2.4 million. The two projects approved by the FHWA and Caltrans are the Ramona A and Ramona B improvements as follows: (1) Ramona A - Ramona Boulevard, 1 -605 to Francisquito Avenue, and (2) Ramona B - Ramona Boulevard, Francisquito Avenue to Merced Avenue. These two projects are separate and cannot be commingled, and each has its own funding package. Ramona A has funding totaling $950,000 at a 100% funding formula which means that no matching funds are necessary and all $950,000 is available for the construction and construction management of this project. Ramona B has funding totaling $1.5 million also for construction and construction management, but requires a $70,000 local match. This report is for the construction management of the Ramona A improvements only. Award Construction Management for Ramona B Improvements Page 2 of 5 May 5, 2010 DISCUSSION Caltrans and Staff have reviewed the plans, specifications, and estimate for the Ramona B Improvements, and Caltrans authorized the City to proceed with construction, and to initiate the process of engaging a professional consultant to manage construction. On February 17, 2010, the City Council authorized staff to advertise the project for construction bids. In order to control construction and ensure project delivery within budget, on time, and at high quality expectations, staff followed the federal guidelines to select a consultant to perform construction management. Strict adherence to federal guidelines will ensure that the cost of the consultant services will be reimbursed, but more importantly, the City must ensure that the construction contractor adhere many strict federal documentation requirements. The turn key construction management services will also provide files management in a specified formatting standard. Having an experienced and knowledgeable construction management firm will ensure that the project is delivered per the City's expectations, but also that the City is reimbursed to the maximum amount allowed. Because the projects were submitted for funding consideration with very little time to fully develop precise plans, a creative construction manager is very important to ensure that the City's vision is implemented on the aesthetic project elements that were not designed, but that are expected to be completed. These include hardscape and landscape improvements that are essentially design -build component of the overall project. This is in addition to providing detailed technical oversight so that all necessary street repairs are addressed prior to paving operations. Construction Manager (CM) Selection Audit on the selection of the CM The construction bidding and the CM selection process was audited by Caltrans on April 27, 2010. Caltrans approved our method of selecting a CM, and there were no audit findings on our process which means we are on track with following strict guidelines and keeping proper documentation. Another round of audits will be performed during construction by FHWA on the selection process. Federal Requirements on Selecting a CM In order to engage a consultant, the City must advertise the RFP with: • Desired scope • Identification of the selection process • Indication how the proposals will be rated (Proposal rating Criteria / Form) - Appropriate selection procedure is the Caltrans / Federal Guideline "One Step RFP, followed by Interviews /Presentation. - Proposal Rating is the Caltrans /Federal recommended FORM and the rating criteria as spelled out on the FORM - Final selection may not involve consideration of cost. Award Construction Management for Ramona B Improvements Page 3 of 5 May 5, 2010 Once final selection was determined, then scope of work and cost was negotiated to a fair and reasonable level. A reasonable level is subjective, but generally involves looking at other top proposals to consider scope and cost. The body of proposals defines a frame in terms of scope, man -hour effort, and cost. From the Caltrans and FHWA auditors perspective, reasonable does not include negotiating to a lowest cost; rather it focuses on ensuring the best scope is obtained at a reasonable cost for those services. That cost could be the average cost of the top proposals. Findings resulting from Caltrans and Federal audits have no leniency, and therefore they recommend engaging the best services to give local agencies the best chance for full project delivery and full reimbursement. Attachment 1 details the process that we followed to select the CM. The technical merits of the written proposals were contained by most if not all proposers. However, it was the firm's creativity that set the shortlisted proposals apart from a standard approach. After the written proposals were rated, the following four firms were shortlisted and invited to an interview /presentation (listed in no particular order). PBSU Transtech Civil Source Willdan The presentation format was established to include: Introduction / Presentation of firm Introduction of proposed team Firm's approach to the project Brief overview of the scope of services Botu h committees met just prior dw the Interviews i / r O i r Ucn0cr1n +an+i Ei n 1 s and agreed to ask the following questions: 1. What service do you bring to the City of Baldwin Park which characterizes your firm? 2. How will you ensure that the improvements to be constructed are to the satisfaction of the City given that some improvement elements do not have a design to follow? a. Landscaping, irrigation, planting b. Tree locations c. Monument 3. What would you say is the most creative aspect that your team brings to the City? 4. Please explain your procedures to assure federal compliance of DBE requirements. 5. How does your firm plan on minimizing disruption to residents and businesses along the project? Award Construction Management for Ramona B Improvements Page 4 of 5 May 5, 2010 After presentations and committee discussion, each Committee member scored all four firm's presentations. The score from the proposal (50 %) and from the interview (50 %) were combined giving the rankings below: Ramona A Committee: 1 - Wilidan Engineering (tie) 1 - PBS &J (tie) 3 - Civilsource 4 - Transtech The committee chair discussed with both committees the possibility of reaching unanimity of a single top consultant to perform on both projects. This option was discussed, however, in light of Committee B not identifying a single top consultant, further discussion to select a single firm for two committee's was abandoned. The committee chair stressed that fees would only be used to frame the scope and cost of services, so as to help right -size scope and fees. The following is a summary of the cost proposals of the top four firms (in no particular order): Ramona B Total Hours Total Amount PBSU 1367 $150,962 Willdan 1045 $101,740 Civil Source 747 $67,120 Transtech 1101 $141,065 Committee B was deadlocked with two consultants, PBSU and Willdan, which were tied as their top pick. Therefore, prior to unsealing costs, it was naturally agreed that cost or effort would now factor in. As costs were unsealed, it was noted that PBSU had too high a cost and too great a number of hours compared to the Willdan proposal, the choice was Willdan, especially since the hours and cost fit in the same proportion as Ramona A. The overall average effort hours are 973, and the top proposals average is 1,065. Willdan had also discussed with the committees during the interview the shortcomings of the project plans and the need to provide landscaping support. The committee chair indicated that the negotiation could require that Willdan enhance hours without a proposed increase in the cost. If this could be done, then no further meetings would be necessary. The final effort in hours by Willdan Engineering was increased to 1,065 to provide Landscape Architectural and Arborist support. The possibility of engaging Willdan Engineering prompted staff to review the firm's background and official standing. This firm is officially recognized as indicated in the Article of Incorporation as shown in Attachment 2. A reference check of their work reveals this firm has performed well and is actually well known and respected. This firm is employee owned, and a computer internet search found nothing negative about this firm as shown in Attachment 3.

The $70,000 match may come from either 1) if the project expenditures are below the available funding, we may charge in -kind city staff support against the project up to the $70,000 match, or 2) authorize utilization of the fund balance in TCRF Fund 242. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council award a Construction Management Contract to Willdan Engineering in the amount not to exceed $101,740 and authorize the Mayor to execute the attached agreement. ATTACHMENTS 1 Consultant Selection Details 2 Articles of Incorporation 3 Google Search 4 Consultant Services Agreement Attachment 1 Details on the Selection Process of the CM The following are the steps that Staff took in compliance with the Federal Requirements for selecting a CM. The RFP published by the City (see attached FRP) included: ❑ A scope of services along with an indication that we would be seeking a CM with creativity as some of the construction plans did not include details on the landscaping and other beautification elements of the project. ❑ The selection procedures, a proposal rating criteria /form, and a selection schedule. ❑ The RFP indicated that written proposals would be evaluated by a committee. ❑ The RFP indicated that a separate committee would evaluate Ramona A and Ramona B improvements. ❑ Clarification that the City would retain the right to award a CM contract to one firm for both projects, or may award a CM contract to two different firms, one for each project. The City established two committees: Committee A for Ramona A consisted of: • Sal Lopez • Monica Killen • Edward Torres • William Galvez (I was common to both committees) Committee B for Ramona B consisted of: • Amy Harbin • Rudy Galindo • David Lopez • William Galvez (I was common to both committees) We originally had a fifth member for each committee with Lorena Quijano, Finance Director, also participating on both committees. But due to the heavy workload of the City's budget preparation, Ms. Quijano had to withdraw from participating. ❑ The City received 14 proposals for Construction Management for each of the Ramona A and Ramona B improvements (that's 28 total — see list below). ❑ Each committee held a proposal evaluation kickoff meeting to summarize the funding and what the construction project consists of, explain the RFP, the Federal Guidelines, and the rating criteria, and to distribute the written proposals. ❑ Written proposals were evaluated by each respective committee, and a subsequent meeting was held to tabulate the results. ❑ From the tabulated results, due to the high number of proposals, an analysis was performed to determine if there was a consensus on the ratings of the bottom one - half of the 14 proposals. Staff strongly recommends not releasing any details on the bottom ratings to avoid any embarrassment of the participating firms (this is for their sake). The typical and standard practice has been to hold a meeting with firms and pass on some of the positive proposal elements that were identified, and the strengths demonstrated in the interview. ❑ Both committees independently identified the bottom eight proposals by consensus during the first round of tabulations (this is an excellent result, demonstrating the committee understood the RFP, the City's goals, and fully read the proposals). ❑ From the remaining six proposals, a consensus was not immediately reached on the top three. We discussed the differences and based on the ratings, the committee agreed the combined committee scores did result in three proposals worthy of being shortlisted. The other committee also had similar results on their top three. ❑ The two committees had two firms in common in their top three, so four firms were shortlisted to satisfy both committees' top three. At this point we informed the ten forms not invited to the interview phase that they were not short- listed. ❑ Both committees attended the interview of the top four firms, and each committee identified a top firm. ❑ Discussion amongst both committees was held to see if a single firm could be selected for both projects. A consensus was not reached, and I recommended to each committee to independently make their selection and proceed to the cost proposal phase. ❑ Cost proposals from the firms selected yielded reasonable costs, with excellent scope of work and man -hour effort. ❑ Each committee recommended that the top firm identified be engaged for CM services. The principal elements of each scope were satisfactory, and the cost was immediately deemed reasonable. We received proposals from: PBSU iranstevi i Willdan Engineering CivilSource, Inc. SA Associates Vali Cooper & Associates, Inc. Ghirardelli Associates, Inc. DMR Team ECM Group Axiom Corporation Savannah Tech GK & Associates AAE, Inc. Delterra The firms in italics were the bottom eight written proposals as unanimously determined by both committees.

ATTEST: City Clerk By: Name: Dated: Title: Address: Telephone: CITY OF BALDWIN PARK By: Manuel Lozano, Mayor Dated: CONSULTANT: By: Name: Dated: Title: Consultant Services Agreement Exhibits Willdan Engineering EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF SERVICES The attached Scope of Work is a detailed document based on the Civilsource, Inc. proposal to the City dated March 15, 2010, and subsequently revised to include added services and resubmitted to the City on April 27, 2010. GA170 Projects \2 C Num -Title \2009 -005 Ramona A -B Stimulus\ SConstruction \RamonaB \WilldanExhibits 05- 05- 2010.doc Willdan understands that the City of Baldwin Park is seeking professional construction management consultants to perform construction management, labor compliance and materials testing services for the City of Baldwin Park's ARRA funded Street Improvement Project. These services will include construction management, inspection, office contract administration, labor compliance, material testing, and other services as outlined in the City's Request for Proposal (RFP). We understand that the proposed improvements are funded with ARRA and all work and resulting facilities shall fully conform to the requirements set forth by the ARRA funding guidelines and the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual. Willdan's Construction Management Services will focus on: coordination, review, tracking, reporting, and on performing field inspections to ensure the quality of the work is in compliance with the contract documents. The Willdan team will coordinate, work and proactively assist the efforts of the general contractor in constructing the project, and maintain fluid channels of communication with the City's design consultants to technically support the construction effort and the efforts of the City in achieving a successful project completion with minimum complications. The Willdan team will review and monitor all the work as it is constructed and all supporting documentation which establishes the technical adequacy of the construction, the timely schedule of implementation, and the within budget cost of implementation. The Willdan team will track the progress and quality of construction, log and process submittals, requests for information (RFIs), requests for changes (RFCs), and contract change orders (CCOs), and reviews and resolution of all technical data and issues. The Willdan team will report to the City on the progress of construction and all technical and economic parameters of the project. The Willdan team is unique in that it is structured as an integrated unit with close communication between team members and interlocking responsibilities that provide good coverage of all elements of construction engineering, while at the same time having minimal overlap of duties to avoid misunderstandings of assigned responsibilities and to reduce costs. This structure, outlined in our scope of work, also provides a natural quality assurance /control system for the team. The resident engineer is the base for any decisions and provides assignment of specific duties on a daily basis, while monitoring the success of their fulfillment. The inspection supervisor has specific administrative duties of more close scrutiny of field activities and maintains a periodic program of field file reviews. The flow of key documents that move the project forward is the responsibility of the resident engineer, but he is freed from reviewing the routine paperwork. The inspectors have their assignments, and move the products of their reporting to the supervisors and their files. This tri -level approach has proved highly effective over the past 27 years at Willdan, because the likelihood of an item being missed or incorrect is essentially eliminated with the multi -level of control. There are many routine aspects that are common to the way every construction project is performed in terms of contract administration, construction inspection, and public relations. All of these are outlined in our scope of work. However, there are some very important areas, also mentioned in our BALDWIN f' I A- R: K City of Baldwin Park Construction Management Services Ramona A — Ramona Boulevard Roadway Preservation and Rehabilitation ESM scope of work that requires special attention that is not part of the routine process of the common Willdan's Construction Management team: 1. Institution of standard procedures for project records and procedures conforming to the highest standards for construction management is necessary to have effective claims avoidance, mitigation and resolution. Applying a uniform standard of excellence is the only way to ensure that documents are filed adequately to respond directly and in a timely manner to each situation that might impact a potential claim. Over 19 years ago, Willdan adopted, as standard procedures, the practices set forth in the Caltrans Construction Manual and in the Caltrans Bridge Construction Records and Procedures Manual, Volumes 1 and 2. 2. Schedule and cost management are priority areas for Willdan's professional construction team. Our team will be very aggressive in these areas and will continuously dedicate time and effort to very effectively keep track, review, and monitor the construction project schedule and budget. In order to exercise proper control and ensure time and cost commitments will be met, our management team will be constantly aware of the progress of the construction project. This awareness will come from first -hand field observations and inspections of the work in progress, along with detailed review and analysis of baseline and updated project schedules.. 3. Thorough and timely documentation of change order circumstances is crucial both to minimize potential and /or unresolved claims and provide properly for Agency approval of change order funding. Should extra work be required, the Willdan team will revise and analyze the contractor's proposal of increased cost and time. We will evaluate the contractor's estimate of costs and proposed methods to minimize additional costs; the effects and impacts, if any, on unchanged work; time extension; and, any delay and /or disruption to the performance of the construction work. The use of a labor classification, which would increase the extra work cost, will not be permitted unless the Contractor establishes the necessity for such additional costs. An attempt shall be made to reconcile the Contractor's extra work report daily, and the Willdan and the Contractor Field Representatives shall sign it. In the event of disagreement, pertinent notes shall be entered by each party to explain points which cannot be resolved immediately. Separate Daily Construction Inspection Reports will be written to monitor and document the particulars associated with this extra work to keep track of the labor, material, and equipment used in connection with it. All of these procedures are standard practice for Willdan resident engineers and construction inspectors. 4. A project specific quality assurance program (QAP) is essential on complex projects to maintain orderly, cost effective and comprehensive materials quality control. The City's general QAP will be superimposed with the Caltrans Construction Manual /Local Programs Manual testing frequency tables and applied to all of the materials in the various phases of work on the construction contract. A matrix will be generated from the correlation of all these documents that summarizes in detail the testing and frequency required for every material entering the project. The City will be consulted on in relation to the intent of their QAP. The resultant matrix will provide a set of tests and frequencies that can be rigidly followed by whichever inspector happens to be overseeing any particular item of construction. All members of the team, even the Contractor will be fully aware of precisely the game plan on material testing at all points throughout the term of the project, leaving no room for error. The secondary benefit is that all of the decisions regarding testing will have been worked out before the project starts in consultations with City staff and nothing will be left to chance. City of Baldwin Park -F!; Construction Management Services 2 BALDWIN Ramona A — Ramona Boulevard Roadway Preservation and Rehabilitation P'1- A 1--k-,--i'-' ESM Naturally, all general aspects of the QAP will be adhered to such as using certified laboratories. 5. Implementing quality construction management procedures, such as the following, can avoid most claims: • Use of customized (Willdan standard) forms for routine communications, including a confidential potential claim communique within Agency staff. • Conduct pre -job seminars with staff and field personnel so as to become very familiar with Contract documents and terms. • Firmly enforce the rule that in any circumstance of the slightest chance of a potential claim, a notice of potential claim form must be prepared by the inspector and delivered to the resident engineer. • Avoid verbal and other informal communications of scope /time issues, but confirm in writing promptly on such occurrences. • Respond in timely manner to Contractor's complaint and /or charge. • Persevere with as many letters as necessary to create a solid paper trail. • Date stamp all incoming correspondence. • Consistently maintain the rule that if there is any doubt about what should be done in any situation, ask the resident engineer. • Prepare /review meeting minutes ensuring accuracy and complete written representation of issues discussed at the meeting and their resolution or status, with a notation inviting participants to review and respond within the prescribed time after receipt of minutes. • Prepare and properly maintain detailed, comprehensive and very descriptive daily construction inspection reports. • Maintain daily photographic record to keep visual track of physical conditions and work force location and intensity. 6. Rigorous standard procedures for schedule control must be inherent in the construction management program in order to bring the project to completion in the shortest time and also with the least potential damages due to delays. All members of the construction management team have a standing duty to be proactive in identifying a situation that has a possibility of creating a delay. As for all situations that potentially may influence prosecution of the work in strict compliance to the contract, the item must be brought to the Resident Engineer's attention immediately. Gather all pertinent information relevant to the problem area, analyze thoroughly and proactively work together with the City of Commerce, and the Contractor as appropriate, on mitigation measures. Expeditiously log, track, and expedite evaluation, response and /or review of: Requests for Information (RFIs), Time Extension Requests, Requests for Substitution, and /or Requests for Change (RFCs) submitted by the Contractor. Expeditiously log, monitor, track and expedite review and approval of submittals and /or shop drawings. Closely monitor that material is procured and delivered in a timely manner. Special attention will be given to long lead items. City of Baldwin Park Construction Management Services 3 BALDWIN Ramona A — Ramona Boulevard Roadway Preservation and Rehabilitation I', A, �k_ Date stamp all incoming correspondence. Address and document discussions and verbal agreements reached at weekly and other meetings. Maintain photographic record to keep visual track of physical conditions and workforce location and intensity. If a Notice of Potential Claim (NOPC) is filed, the Willdan team will gather all of the documents, photos and pertinent information associated with the issue the claim is submitted for and prepare a meticulous and comprehensive written report determining the merit and validity of the claim and recommending the best action(s) to take for a timely, suitable, expeditious, and cost - effective resolution. A routine system of supervision of field personnel has been implemented to provide consistent, very proactive quality control of field operations. In addition to the Resident Engineer's review and direct supervision, at Willdan, our inspection supervisors routinely cycle around to all projects and review the performance and project files of the inspectors. The inspectors are also required to inform and consult with their supervisor and our construction engineering staff in the case of any potential claim on their project. On City projects, it is always of paramount importance to be cognizant of public relations. All of Willdan's Construction Management team members understand this concept and are fully aware and practice in dealing successfully with the public. This awareness comes from their day -to -day continuous work under the direct supervision of City Project Manager is naturally highly politically conscious of public relation ramifications. As part of Willdan's standard policy, the construction phase is always considered a team effort with communication a top priority between the Construction Management staff, contractor, city staff, and survey crew. Communication is the responsibility of the Resident Engineer and field inspectors to implement, coordinate, and maintain, facilitating open lines at all times, including bringing team members together at appropriate points during construction. This minimizes misunderstandings and potential disputes and /or claims. Willdan normally prepares progress reports based on weekly meetings with the contractor at which time, recent progress, material and shop /working drawings submittals, Requests for Information (RFIs), Requests for Change (RFCs), status of contract change orders, notices of potential claims (NOPCs), if any, planned progress, scheduling, special problems, and change orders are discussed. Each of these items becomes a primary heading for the minutes of the meeting, in which new business is identified and unresolved old business is reviewed. The minutes are prepared in such a way that they serve as a complete project status report and as the agenda for the following meeting, covering all items and providing the continuity such that no items are left unresolved.

At the City Council meeting on April 21, 201 the City Council discussed the issue of sound wall being constructed along the i -10 Freeway as part of the 1 -10 Freeway HOV Lane Expansion Project and asked staff to provide an update. The City of Baldwin Park has been opposing the construction of sound wall for several years. The City Council believes that the construction of the sound wall is likely to adversely impact the businesses along the freeway by blocking the visibility, which is considered important in promoting a business to potential customers. At Council's direction the City submitted a formal request to Caltrans in 2005 to remove the sound wall from construction plans for six locations. Caltrans asked the city to indemnify, defend and hold it harmless if there were and challenges or liabilities as a result of removal of the sound wall. Since the City is not in a position to indemnify the State the City dropped its pursuit of removal of the sound wall. Again in 2008 City requested removal of sound wall along 12819 Garvey Avenue, which was denied by Caltrans. On October 28, 2009 the Council Freeway Task Force Committee consisting of Mayor Pro Tern Monica Garcia and Council Member Marlen Garcia met with Caltrans representatives and elected officials from other cities and again requested reconsideration of the sound wall. Per Committee direction staff met with Caltrans staff on January 27, 2010. Caltrans informed city staff that if the sound study identifies an impact on residents then Caltrans is required to construct the sound wall. However, upon City's request Caltrans agreed to re- evaluate the sound study and also property uses to determine if any of the uses have changed facilitating removal of the sound wall along certain sections. May 5, 2010 Staff report on 1 -10 sound wall Page 2 of 2 On April 22, 2010 staff learned from Caltrans staff that the re- evaluation re- confirmed the sound wall. However, staff has not received details of the studies and recommendations. We are in communication with Caltrans to receive the information. In January of this year, the Task Force members again discussed the issue of sound wall removal with Chief Deputy District Director, Department of Transportation, District 7. Raja Mitwasi, who agreed to look into this matter. Mr. Mitwasi has since transferred to another division. We have contacted Mr. Teri Abbott Interim Chief Deputy District Director, Department of Transportation, District 7 who has represented that he will look into this matter. Task Force members are also working with the Office of Assembly Member Ed. Hernandez to seek Caltrans consideration and approval for removal of the sound wall. We anticipate meeting with Caltrans policy makers in the next few weeks. to determine how we can have the sound wall removed now since the engineering re- evaluation does not recommend removal of the sound wall. Attached is a memorandum from staff with detailed chronology and other documents providing history on this matter. We will update the Council as additional information becomes available. It is recommended the City Council receive and file the report or provide directions as deemed appropriate. 197-11194 Vijay Singhal, Chief Executive Officer Edwin "William" Galvez, Director of Public Works May 5, 2010 SUBJECT: Sound Wall Study and Chronology for the 1 -10 Freeway 4OV Lane Expansion Project 1:111;];L!Rl The purpose of this report is to provide a general understanding of events Isading to the current sound walls issues and request council direction. :l • r The following is a chronology related to the sound walls proposed along the 1 -10 HOV lane project. In the early 1990's the City was provided preliminary conceptual alignments for the widening of the Interstate 10 Freeway from the Interstate 605 freeway to Puente Ave. The widening was to accommodate High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes. In 1993, the City received conceptual drawings and a general project scope for the HOV Lane project; however, it did not include sound wall plans. In December 1994, the City and Caltrans met to discuss potential impacts due to the construction. These impacts, including noise issues, would be addresses in an Environmental Impact Study (EIS). At that meeting some general sound wall comments were made, but no specific locations were discussed or proposed. In the mid to late 1990's our City received correspondence focusing on construction standards for traffic signals, storm drains, landscaping, bridges, sound walls, studies, and other amenities. In March 2001 Caltrans provided a preliminary design of the Freeway HOV lane project to the City for comments. Page 2 In October 2002, Caltrans provided to the City the draft initial study /environmental assessment. The study made reference to a Traffic Noise Impact Report prepared by PBQ &D dated October 25, 2001. The report summarized the impacts to surrounding properties along the 1 -10 Freeway frontage. The report includes a summary of the recommended noise barriers proposed for construction. On May 4, 2005, the City Council formally authorized staff to submit a request to Caltrans to consider eliminating sound walls at six locations. On May 9, 2005, the City sent a letter to Caltrans requesting the removal of sound wall sections at the six locations. On May 23, 2005 Caltrans, responded to our request and indicated that Caltrans would consider the removing plans to construct proposed sound walls under the following conditions: 1. The City must provide a copy of the City Council Resolution clearly stating that the zoning for the affected locations will be redefined and that the existing residences within the affected areas wiii be removed. 2. The City Council must pass a resolution clearly stating that the City will indemnify, defend and save harmless the State of California, its officers, directors, agents and employees from all mitigation liabilities as well as litigations costs arising from the claims resulting from removing those portions of the sound walls from the freeway improvement project. On September 21, 2005, our City Council authorized staff to withdraw our request to Caltrans for the removal of sound walls at various locations alona the 1 -10 freeway corridor. In September 2006, the Project Study Report (PSR) was completed and the Noise Impacts for the project were addressed by referencing the Noise Study. On March 5, 2008, the City requested Caltrans, remove the proposed sound wall fronting California RV Sales (12819 Garvey Avenue - this business has since moved). On March 18, 2008 staff received a letter from Caltrans responding to our sound wall removal request. Caltrans denied the request and restated conditions similar to the May 23, 2005 letter summarized above. On November 5, 2009 Caltrans conducted one of an ongoing series of public meetings at our community center. Several business owners attended and were informed of the imminent work and the proposed sound wall locations. Several business owners brought up concerns about the sound wall, which Caltrans representatives answered, but would nevertheless provide additional follow -up with them. Page 3 DISCUSSION In an effort to further assist our businesses to reduce the lengths and locations of proposed sound walls, City Staff held a meeting at District 7 head quarters on January 27, 2010. The following were the topics of discussion: • reducing the sound wall lengths • substituting the sound wall material with transparent materials • re- evaluate the sound wall study and submit results to the City On April 21, 2010, the City received the attached letter and petition requesting City assistance to have adjacent or nearby sound wall segments not constructed. That same day, Caltrans provided a copy of a memorandum with results of a re- analysis. The letter did not address all the locations that City staff had requested evaluated. The re- evaluation did confirm the construction of the sound wall on the north side of the freeway on Garvey Avenue just West of the Wal -Mart shopping center (Lewis Retail Center). On April 22, 2010, staff contacted Roland Cerna of the Caltrans Noise and Vibration Investigations Branch Office of Environmental Engineering and Feasibility Studies. In speaking with Mr. Cerna the re- evaluation did include and re- confirmed the sound wall locations at: • North edge of freeway - Garvey Ave, Frazier to east of Fairgrove • North edge of freeway - Garvey Ave, Big Dalton Wash to Big Dalton • South edge of freeway - Francisquito Ave, Overcrossing by In and Out Restaurant The re- evaluation did not include the segment on Garvey Avenue from Francisquito Avenue to Vineland Avenue along the north edge of the freeway. Caltrans will need to follow -up at this last location by performing a re- evaluation. However, Mr. Cerna did provide his professional assessment that this location would be very unlikely to change if it were to be re- evaluated due to nearby housing units on Patty Lane, Feather, and Corak. These locations require mitigation of ambient freeway sound levels. Should you have any questions, let me know. Thank you. �- �� LIJ 'Ae umm cry 12�� mom OY a y gr f k�1 e Vin.

Vde have determined that the recommended limits of the soundwall No 10 -529 are necessary in order to achieve feasible traffic noise reduction of 5 dBA for the residential area located between Vineland Ave. and the Big Dalton Wash. Acoustical feasibility analysis was performed for soundwall No 10-529 with new termini at STA 531 +92.3 and STA 530 +86.0. The analysis results indicate that constructing soundwall No 10-529 with the new termini considerably reduce the number of benefited receivers. Twelve sensitive receivers would benefit with the soundwall ending at the current terminus at STA 532 +80.0. Only five receivers would benefit with the soundwall ending at STA 53I +92.3 and onl y one receiver would benefit with the soundwall ending at STA 530 +86.0. Please also note that the original length of soundwall No 10-529 has already been shortened in a previous design change, resulting in loss of traffic noise abatement benefits for apprnximat,ely twelve impacted residences on Big T)Phnn Aven„P, RefP7^ to Table 1 for analysis results.

Caltrans is extending the existing 1-10 High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane in each direction, from the 1-605 to Puente Avenue. The proposed project by Caltrans is scheduled to start in 2008 for completion in 2009. As part of the widening project, sound walls are proposed at various locations along the 1-10 corridor. The construction of the sound walls will visually block the view from the freeway into the proposed redevelopment project sites and on May 4, 2005, the City Council authorized staff to submit a letter to Caltrans, requesting the elimination of the below referenced six proposed sound wall locations. The letter was sent to Caltrans on May 9, 2005. North Side of 1-10 • Garvey Avenue easterly to Big Dalton Avenue (Big Dalton/Garvey Site). • Garvey Avenue east of the westbound Frazier Street off-ramp (Frazier/Garvey Site). • Garvey Avenue west of the Athol Street overpass, westerly to the 1-605 (GarveyNVestcott Site). South Side of 1-10 • Eastbound Francisquito Avenue off-ramp beginning west of the Francisquito overpass/bridge heading east to the end of the Francisquito Avenue off-ramp (Francisquito/Vineland Site). • Dalewood Street beginning east of the eastbound Baldwin Park Boulevard off-ramp heading east. • Dalewood Street beginning east of the Francisquito Avenue off-ramp and heading east (Big Dalton/Dalewood Site). Caltrans Sound Walls September 21, 2005 Page 2 of 2 These locations represent areas along the 1 -10 corridor in which the City's General Plan identifies the abutting properties as having a commercial land use designation. These properties represent potential commercial development with full freeway accessibility and exposure. DISCUSSION: In response to the City's letter, Caltrans is stating that the reasoning provided by the City was insufficient and that in order for Caltrans to remove portions of the proposed sound walls, the City must satisfy either one of the following conditions: 1) The City must provide a copy of the City Council Resolution stating that the zoning for the affected locations will be redefined and that the existing residences within the affected areas will be removed, or 2) The City Council must approve a resolution stating that the City will indemnify, defend and save harmless the State of California, its officers, directors, agents and employees from all mitigation liabilities, as well as litigation costs arising from the claims resulting from removing those portions of the sound walls from the freeway improvement project. Based upon the above mentioned conditions presented by Caltrans in response to the City's request, staff recommends that the proposed sound wall locations remain and that the City withdraw the initial request to Caltrans regarding the omission of portions of the proposed sound wall locations in Baldwin Park. FISCAL Iit PAa C. T : No impact to the General Fund is anticipated. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize staff to submit a letter to Caltrans withdrawing the City's initial request to eliminate portions of the proposed sound wall locations along the 1 -10 Freeway corridor in Baldwin Park.

Be energy effrcienff Thank you for your recent letter regarding the omission of portions of the proposed sound wails on Interstate 10 (1- 10) within the City of Baldwin Park. Based on my initial investigation, I regret to inform you that the stated reasoning given by the City to eliminate portions of the proposed sound walls is insufficient. In order for Caltrans to remove portions of the proposed sound walls, the City must satisfy either one of the Following conditions: The City must provide a copy of the City Council Resolution clearly stating that the zoning for the affected locations will be redefined and that the 6xisting residences within the affected areas will be removed. The City Council must pass a resolution clearly stating that the City will indemnify, defend and save harmless the State of California, its officers, directors, agents and employees from all mitigation liabilities as well as litigation costs arising from the claims resulting from removing those portions of the sound walls from the freeway improvement project. We understand and appreciate your concerns and we are willing to work with you in order to brim; a satisfactory -esult to this issue.

Dear Mehdi: Thank you for bringing your staff and Mr. Abdollah A. Ansari of MTA to our City and for sharing your preliminary design on the above project with the City staff. The meeting appeared to be very valuable for both of us and all the issues were discussed and resolved in a very cordial atmosphere. On behalf of the City we want to assure you that we will work with you on every issue and try to find a workable solution together. I would like to summarize the main items discussed during this meeting, for which nr% understanding %Aino reached: "I I U 1 1%.4 %,1 1., & vv"-.� 1. The City would like to minimize the impact on the residents whose property will be impacted by the construction of this project. This will also reduce the cost of the project. 2. Location of sound walls will be reviewed closely taking into consideration the City's upcoming developments. The City agrees with Caltrans' policy to provide sound walls only for residential areas. 3. The city would not raise the issue of extensive modification of on and off ramps, specially Francisquito Avenue. Including this could jeopardize or delay the progress of the project. The City requested, and MTA and Caltrans agreed, that Francisquito Avenue interchange can be a project by itself and can be pursued at a later date.

The City staff clearly stated that the City would not be able to contribute any financial support to the project based on the City's poor financial condition. If anything has been promised by previous administration, that is no longer possible because the conditions from then to now has changed so drastically. The City is depending on 100% funding of this project by MTA. .i. The City accepts the minimum width of access road to be 38' wide (top of curb to top of curb to be 30'wide with 8'of parkway one side only). 6. The City standard drawing for curb and gutter is attached. The City will accept 8" curb height or equal to the existing curb height. We hope to continue our discussion throughout the design process and work out all problems together. Please feel free to call or meet with us any time. Sincerely Shafique Naiyer, P.E.

Quon, Chief Office of Project Development B Department of Transportation - District 7 120 South Spring Street Los Angeles, CA 90012 Attention: Mr. George Hayakawa Dear Mr. Quon: As you requested, this letter is in response to your letter of February 7, 1995 regarding issues affecting the 1 -10 Freeway Widening Project. The City supports the HOV Widening Project, however, the following are our comments with respect to those issues: 1. north and Southside Frontage Road Width The City does not approve the change proposed for the frontage road geometries to 7 -foot sidewalk (City side), 40 -foot roadway (curb to curb) and 2 -foot to freeway right - of -way line. The City already compromised its 1103--foot standard by reducing It Lo o 5- eet in the area adjacent to the freeway. Please note the attached City standard. The City does not approve the construction of 6 -inch curb height. 2. Francisquito Eastbound On -Ramp The City is still interested in the construction of an eastbound on -ramp at Francisquito. Furthermore, the City is submitting an application to MTA under the FY1995 -96 Call for Projects. The application, if approved, will provide 90% of the funding required to purchase additional right -of -way to accommodate the construction of the Francisquito on -ramp. The remaining 10% will be funded by the City through other funding sources. Subject to the availability of the right -of -way, Caltrans will design and construct the on -ramp with or without the HOV Project. As requested by Caltrans, a staff report will be prepared for City Council on April 19, 1995 and soon thereafter, the City will forward to you a copy of the staff report, as well as, a certified copy of the City Council minutes.

This report requests City Council approval of a Resolution authorizing the city to enter into a contract with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health (DPH) upon receipt of a "RENEW" (Renewing Environments for Nutrition, Exercise and Wellness) Grant for the development and implementation of evidence -based policies, systems and environmental change strategies. In December of 2009, city staff submitted a grant application in response to a request for proposals from DPH seeking applicants who can form effective partnerships to create and implement policies, systems and environmental changes that will increase opportunities for physical activity, improve nutrition, and /or decrease obesity /overweight prevalence throUrihnl It an entire community On March 19, 2010, the City received notice the RENEW proposal was selected for a two -year funding in the amount of $240,000 ($115,000 for year 1 and $125,000 for year 2). Baldwin Park was one of nine (9) cities /organizations (initiatives) that were funded throughout Los Angeles County. Of the nine initiatives, four (4) are developing complete streets policies. Through the grant process, the city can leverage the resources from these organizations to create strong partnerships, share best practices and create the most effective model policies. Complete streets are designed and operated to enable safe access for all users. Pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and transit riders of all ages and abilities must be able to safely move along and across a complete street. Creating complete streets means transportation agencies must change their orientation toward building primarily for cars. Instituting a complete streets policy ensures that transportation May 5, 2010 Page 2 of 5 agencies routinely design and operate the entire right of way to enable safe access for all users. Places with complete streets policies are making sure that their streets and roads work for drivers, transit users, pedestrians, and bicyclists, as well as for older people, children, and people with disabilities. The goal is to create an environment where the children and youth of Baldwin Park can make good eating and physical activity choices in their community. The grant focus is on implementing broad scaled policy changes to create built environment changes that make it easier to be physically active and to access healthier foods. The strategies selected for the initiative are: 1. Improve Access to physical activity by adopting a City -wide Complete Streets policy to provide safe, attractive and accessible streets; and 2. Improve physical activity opportunities by developing a partner action plan with the Baldwin Park Unified School District to facilitate a pilot after school physical activity /education program in a middle school in Baldwin Park; and 3. Improve Point of Purchase /Promotion by engaging youth and residents in changing the business practice of local cornerstores /neighborhood stores to sustain the of forts of the Dior I er store Conversion sion Program through institutionalizing the "Healthy Selection Program ". A) Partnerships A key component of the grant involves a partnership with the California Center for Public Health Advocacy (CCPHA) and the Baldwin Park Unified School District (BPUSD). The role of the partners is to promote and advocate for the initiative by leading the community outreach efforts, which include presentations to various community groups, one -on -one discussions with key leaders and create and disseminate promotional materials. Each partnership is required to form a coal ition /taskforce of community stakeholders to advocate for the new policy, systems or environmental change. The City will pay CCPHA and the BPUSD $20,000 per year respectively from the RENEW budget to conduct this work. In addition to community outreach, the $20,000 allocated to the BPUSD will be used to provide an annual stipend to a physical education coach to facilitate a pilot after school physical activity /education program at one middle school in Baldwin Park. B) Initiative Coordinator The grant requires the City to provide one person to serve as a full -time initiative coordinator to organize and lead the partnership forward to meet the deliverables and goals of the grant. Associate Planner Salvador Lopez will be designated as the initiative coordinator for the 2 year project. Mr. Lopez has been instrumental in collaborating with city and community leaders in our health and built environment efforts. His expertise and knowledge brings the capacity and leadership needed to ensure proper implementation of the grant and high visibility for the City of Baldwin Park May 5, 2010 Page 3 of 5 and the County. His attention to detail in the progressive built environment and smart growth concepts will provide the impetus for a successful grant launch. He will work collaboratively with all departments and required partners to ensure this work gets integrated with minimal costs. It also provides for a single point of contact for the residents. Another benefit of assigning in -house staff is that once the grant expires the city would not have to find funding to retain the newly hired staff. Once the two -year project is complete, the City will retain his expertise to ensure long term sustainability of the grant objectives, complete streets and engagement of small business and cornerstores. The annual salary for the initiative coordinator for the two (2) years will be supplemented by the grant. Although the salary of Mr. Lopez exceeds the maximum allocation, the grant funding will fund 82% of his current salary. The remaining 18% will be covered by the funding of his currently budgeted position. Due to the current economic environment, the activities in the Planning Division are leaner. Moreover, Mr. Lopez was already dedicating time to this work, therefore, his transfer will not have a significant impact. As activity picks up, the city will hire an intern /part -time staff to manage the workload. C) Deliverables In addition to (1) holding monthly meetings with core partners to coordinate initiative efforts; (2) participate in regular DPH -led learning network meetings and (3) provide monthly written reports for monitoring and expectations, the first year of the initiative will involve an extensive public outreach and engagement process. Some of the milestones include but are not limited to: • Develop an action plan with detailed steps for adoption and implementation • Gather baseline data and identify process for measuring progress • Hold meetings with community leaders and groups to raise awareness about the initiative • Form a community taskforce • Implement promotional activities • Develop policy proposal /language • Develop a partner action plan with the BPUSD stipulating work products and activities for the pilot program • Sustain the efforts of the Cornerstore Conversion Program The second year of the initiative will involve: • Adoption of the Complete Streets Policy • Develop timeline for policy implementation • Create an action plan for launching the related physical project • Implement physical project • Evaluate and measure change in Body Mass Index (BMI) and track development of curriculum guidelines for after school program • Create guidelines for healthy store floor plans May 5, 2010 Paae 4 of 5 • Explore pricing strategies for cornerstore incentives • Adopt Healthy Baldwin Park program as a permanent campaign This grant opportunity will accomplish the City's desire of providing and improving pedestrian access and mobility throughout Baldwin Park as well as continued efforts to improve the pedestrian circulation system as identified in the City's General Plan. The adoption of the complete streets policy will foster walkability and physical activity through physical changes of the public right -of -ways, which will ensure safe access to and from schools and public parks as well as continuing the momentum of providing access to healthy foods and sustainability of physical activity. The creation of this health and built environment will prime Baldwin Park to become a model city in Los Angeles County where other cities will want to emulate and where making the healthy choice the easy choice. D) Resolution In order for staff to execute the agreement, a Resolution must be approved by the City Council (no later than May 14, 2010) authorizing staff to enter into a contract between the City and DPH. That resolution will commit the City to the deliverables outlined in the attached detailed Scope of Work (Attachment #1) as well as dedicate one (1) full - time staff person to act as the initiative coordinator. The execution of this grant will not have an adverse effect on the general fund as the two (2) year salary (including benefits) for the initiative coordinator as well as all other associated expenses will be fully covered by the grant on a monthly reimbursable basis. T his report has been reviewea and approved by the City Attorney's Office as to legal form and content. Staff recommends that the City Council: Resolution No. . entitled RESOLUTION • COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BALDWIN PARK AUTHORIZING STAFF TO SIGN CONTRACT LOS COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH .O FROM EVIDENCE- BASED POLICY, SYSTEMS AND ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE STRATEGIES"; and 2. Authorize the Finance Director to create an appropriate line item budget in the Grant Fund 270 in accordance with the requirements; and May 5, 2010 Paae 5 of 5 3.

NIETO, CMC, Deputy City Clerk of the City of Baldwin Park, do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was adopted on May 5, 2010 at a regular meeting of the City Council by the following vote: AYES: COUNCILMEMBER: NOES: COUNCILMEMBER: ABSENT: COUNCILMEMBER: LAURA M. NIETO DEPUTY CITY CLERK is F A, K' & ITEM NO. STAFF REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Marc Castagnola, AICP, Community Development Manager—t DATE: May 5, 2010 SUBJECT: Public Hearing Regarding Five Year Consolidated Plan, Fiscal Year 2010 - 2011 Annual Action Plan, Citizen Participation Plan And Analysis Of Impediments To Fair Housing Choice/Fair Housing Plan The purpose is for City Council to hold the second of two required public hearings regarding the: 1) 2010-2015 Five Year Consolidated Plan; 2) FY 2010-2011 Annual Action Plan; 3) Citizen Participation Plan; and 4) Analysis Of Impediments To Fair Housing Choice/Fair Housing; and 5) To Consider The Revised Funding Allocations For The FY 2010-2011 CDBG Public Service Programs. BACKGROUND/ DISCUSSION Pursuant to Housing and Urban Development (HUD) regulations, the City is preparing its five - year strategy designed to n.,jr1racc the hnw-,;ng needs of r-Ytrpmp-lv low, low and moderate- income households within the community. The current Five Year Consolidated Plan covers years 2005-2010. The new Five Year Plan will cover years 2010-2015. Along with the Five Year Plan, the City must also prepare and submit its Annual Action Plan, Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice and Citizen Participation Plan. All Plans are due to HUD by May 15, 2010. On March 3, 2010 the City Council allocated $226,819 to various public service programs. Subsequent to this action, HUD finalized the allocation to the City of Baldwin Park resulting in an increase of $17,744 in funds that may be allocated to public service programs. With the new funding information available, the City Council must now consider the actual HUD CDBG allocation and possibly revise the public service allocations. The increase to the 15% maximum calculation is as follows: CDBG Annual Plan PSA May 5, 2010 Page 2 of 3 Calculations Previously Considered Actual Amounts Difference 15% of Allocation 222,319 240,063 17,744 15% of $30,000 estimated PI 4,500 4,509 0 Total Available for Public Services 226,819 1 244,563 17,744 Funding Recommendations Taking into consideration the actual CDBG allocation from HUD, staff is proposing a revised public service allocation to include the $17,744. Based on City Council approval on March 17, 2010, authorizing the Police Department to implement a Domestic Violence Advocate program, staff proposes to fund $15,000 to this program. The Domestic Violence Advocate program is an eligible expense under CDBG public service regulations. The implementation of the City's Domestic Violence Program arises at the perfect time since the previous domestic violence provider will no longer be able to maintain this program in FY 2010 -2011. Allocating $15,000 creates a perfect opportunity to continue providing a much needed service under the CDBG Public Service Program. Since funding was reduced for the Pride Platoon and Family Service Center, staff also proposes to increase these programs by $1,744 and $1,000 respectively. Staff revisions are proposed as follows: (Boys and Girls Club 0 01 U BPPD Pride Platoon $20,000 $21,744 $1,744 Childcare Subsidy $27,000 $27,000 0 Church of the Redeemer Food Bank $10,000 $10,000 0 Domestic Violence Advocate 0 $15,000 $15,000 ESGV Coalition for the Homeless $10,000 $10,000 0 Family Service Center $39,000 $40,000 $1,000 Graffiti Removal $56,819 $56,819 0 KID -FIT Preschool Health and Fitness 0 0 0 MAPS For College 0 0 0 Mid Valley Recovery Center 0 0 0 Project Sister $5,000 $5,000 0 Recreation /Sports Scholarship $20,000 $20,000 0 Santa Anita Family Services $5,000 $5,000 0 St. Johns Church Social Services $4,000 $4,000 0 Youth Employment $30,000 $30,000 0 TOTALS $226,819 $244,563 $17,744 CDBG Annual Plan PSA May 5, 2010 Page 3 of 3 City Council is requested to consider the increased amount of $17,744 to public service programs. Please note that while this amount is the maximum amount the City may fund to public service programs, it is not a requirement. Therefore, the City Council may elect to fund any of the specific public services listed in the table or opt to allocate the $17,744 to any eligible CDBG project. Baldwin Park's total allocation from HUD for FY 2010 -2011 is $536,750 (reduction of $4,247) in HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) entitlement funds, and $1,600,420 (increase by $118,291) in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. The City also expects to receive approximately $40,000 in HOME projected Program Income (PI) and $30,000 in CDBG projected PI. Public Review Pursuant to the City's Citizen Participation Plan, the City is required to hold two public hearings during the preparation of the subject plans. The draft plans were available for the required 30- day comment period and public review at City Hall, 3rd floor and the Public Library beginning April 4, 2010 and concluding at the second public hearing scheduled for May 5, 2010. There is no impact to general funds. Staff recommends that the City Council conduct the public hearing and following the public hearing, approve: 1) 2010 -2015 Five Year Consolidated Plan; 2) FY 2010 -2011 Annual Action Plan; 3) Citizen Participation Plan; an-a' 4) Analysis Of Impediments To Fair Housing Choice /Fair Housing; and 5) Approve the allocations for the FY 2010 -2011 CDBG public service programs by selecting one of the following options: OPTION 1 — Approve staff's recommendations for funding; or G OPTION 2 — Devise allocations, as the City Council deems appropriate.

What is the Consolidated Plan? The Consolidated Plan identifies each community's priority needs, short- and long -term goals and objectives, and strategies and timetables for achieving its goals. It asks each community to state how it plans to achieve local objectives in accordance with the statutory goals of all community development programs; to provide decent housing in a suitable living environment and to expand economic opportunity for low- and moderate - income families. The Consolidated Plan codifies the relationship between the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), local units of government and citizens. Developed with the input of citizens and community groups, the Consolidated Plan serves four (4) primary functions. First, it is a planning document for each community, built upon public participation and input. Second, it serves as the application for housing and community development funds through HUD's formula grant programs, of which the City of Baldwin Park is only eligible to directly receive Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) program funds. Third, the Consolidated Plan defines local housing and community development priorities. Fourth, the Consolidated Plan is a five -year strategy that the City will follow each fiscal year to implement HUD programs locally. The Consolidated Plan describes the lead agency responsible for overseeing the development and implementation of the plan and agencies, groups, and organizations that participate in the process. It also includes a summary of the citizen participation process, public comments, and efforts made to broaden public participation in preparing the plan. The City of Baldwin Park 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan identities tree Uity's needs in housing, homelessness, community development and economic development programs. It also presents the City's strategies to address those needs. -- HUD requires the City to complete a Consolidated Plan to receive funds under the CDBG and HOME Programs. Consolidated Plans are required to be prepared every five years and include five Annual Action Plans (described below) to be produced for each year. This Consolidated Plan covers the period from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2015. CDBG and HOME funds can be used for a variety of activities to help low- income people and neighborhoods, such as planning activities, housing assistance, public services, infrastructure, economic development, and other community development projects. The Consolidated Plan is built through a comprehensive consultation and citizen participation process. The City's Housing Department is the lead agency for the City of Baldwin Park I - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan. The Housing Department is tasked with developing and carrying out the plan. C. Community Vision Since the last Consolidated Plan in 2005, the City of Baldwin Park has continued to provide a high standard of living through sound planning practices, managed growth and a host of City services that are available to residents from all walks of life. Baldwin Park is a community of villages that each offer residents, visitors and businesses a distinctive character, composition and appearance. The City uses all resources at its disposal to support the vision outlined in the General Plan to meet current and future demands for housing, commercial development, public open space and public facilities. With state and federal governments constantly threatening Cities with a reduction of funds, future community developments in Baldwin Park will increasingly depend on the efficient use of City resources to maintain its infrastructure, wisely develop its remaining vacant land and to redevelop its underdeveloped land to meet current and future community needs. The City's General Plan is a blueprint to guide development in the City of Baldwin Park in future years. It provides a framework for decisions regarding land use and transportation, as well as public facilities, economic development, housing, and other public issues that are vital to a healthy and livable community. The Housing Department is the primary entity that carries out the vision of the General Plan. Beyond infrastructure, facilities and open space, the City also supplements its general- funded community services with CDBG funds to ensure the efficient and effective delivery of a wide variety of public services to meet the needs of its citizens. The Housing Department oversees the implementation of various public service projects that are carried out by community -based organizations to address the needs of low- and ivierate - iicome citiZ e-,ins. T hnc ; to ensure that all segments of the population are able to thrive in Baldwin Park. D.

Certification to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing and other certifications The City must produce five Annual Action Plans under the Baldwin Park Consolidated Plan for 2010 -2014. Each Annual Action Plan describes how the City will implement projects and invest its CDBG and HOME funds during a given program year. The first Annual Action Plan for 2010 -2011 is included in this Consolidated Plan Document as an Appendix. E.

In the development of the 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan, the City offered numerous opportunities for public input and review, including: City of Baldwin Park 1 -3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 • A needs survey that was distributed at all of the City facilities for residents to communicate their comments on housing, homelessness, community development, and economic development needs. • A Community Meeting that examined issues related to affordable housing, public housing, homelessness, and non - housing community development. • A review of the needs, strategies, actions, and projects in the draft Consolidated Plan by the City and other stakeholders through the citizen participation process. • Public hearings to garner citizen comments on the needs, strategies, actions, and projects in the Consolidated Plan. • Distribution of the draft Consolidated Plan combined with a minimum 30- day public comment period. IV. Housing Itllar'Ket Analysis and Housing Needs: This chapter presents an overview of the City's projected housing supply and demand, and assesses housing needs. The Consolidated Plan regulations require the City to conduct this analysis in order to establish priority housing needs and strategies. The Department conducted an extensive market analysis that focused on: • Existing housing supply and demand. • Economic and development trends that will determine future supply and ripmand. • Niche markets such as public housing, homeless facilities, and housing for persons with special needs. • HUD - specific market characteristics such as low- and moderate - income concentrations, as well as ethnic and minority concentrations. • Priority housing needs and strategies set by the City through the Consolidated Plan development process. The housing market analysis revealed a number of findings, including: •. The supply of housing increased by 660 units since 2000. • Homeownership increased by 1.03% since 2000. The vacancy rate increased from 2.69% in 2000 to an estimated 3.4% in the 2006 -2008 American Community Survey (ACS). City of Baldwin Park 1 - 4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 77% of all housing units are more than 25 years old, indicating that significant repairs to a portion of the City's housing units may need to be completed during this planning period. The City will need to consider the rehabilitation needs of low- and very -low income homeowners who may not be able to afford the costly but necessary repairs to maintain the habitability of their dwelling units. • The lowest income renters are in the most need of more affordable housing. A growing demand for one and two bedroom units is driving up rents while many of these renters are already paying more than half their wages for housing. • With assistance, homeownership may once again be within reach of some moderate - income families. Down payment assistance programs and housing counseling would help the dream of homeownership become a reality for these families. • As the amount of developable land becomes smaller, the need for infill / redevelopment will increase. V. Public Housing Needs: This chapter describes the agencies that provide pi,blir and assisted housing needs in Baldwin Park. The City of Baldwin Park is committed to working with public and assisted housing providers to address housing needs. Several agencies provide public or assisted housing in the City of Baldwin Park city limits. The Housing Authority of the City of Baldwin Park provides assisted housing in the City. The Housing Authority offers the Section 8 (Housing Choice Voucher) Program, which is a federally - funded program that provides rental assistance in the form of a voucher to very low- income families, senior citizens, disabled and other individuals for the purpose of securing decent, affordable housing. Several additional agencies also develop affordable housing for low- and moderate- income households and persons with special needs. The Housing Authority manages 12 units of public and other affordable housing at one site in the City. Vl. Homeless and Special Needs Assessment: This chapter examines the needs of homeless and persons with special needs. Despite greater attention to the problem, there are 2,780 homeless living in the San Gabriel Valley Service Planning Area as determined on a point in time survey conducted by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority in 2009. The diversity of the homeless population continues to increase and the percentage of homeless persons suffering from mental illness and substance abuse also continues to increase. Many homeless have come from rural areas to the City to be near family or to seek employment. Many addicted persons have recycled in and out of homelessness with many of those persons reporting prior episodes. The causes of homelessness in the City include a variety of factors, including: • Substance abuse. • De- institutionalization of persons with mental illness. City of Baldwin Park 1 - 5 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 • Lack of resources to address the needs of homeless or "near- homeless" persons with substance abuse or mental illness, including persons with dual diagnoses. • Unemployment /underemployment. • Lack of job skills among persons at high risk for homelessness. • Domestic violence. • A large gap between the number of affordable housing units and the number of households which need them. Poverty and Lack of Personal Resources. Although more people are homeless, the organizations and programs designed to serve them are making some progress in addressing these often, multi- diagnosed homeless needs. Studies indicate that more of the easier -to- reach "situational homeless" in the City are being helped now compared to several years ago. Crises such as domestic violence, unemployment, or death put these people at risk. Helping the chronically homeless, who often have lived on the streets for years, is harder. These people tend to be substance abusers, persons with mental illness, or dually - diagnosed. The response by City agencies has moved toward a more effective treatment and rehabilitation focus, instead of merely providing food and shelter. According to the Continuum of Care (CoC) Community survey, the number of potentially homeless and at -risk persons in transitional, group, and nonpermanent living arrangements is :Increasing. Persons with special needs may have a variety of mental and physical disabilities; therefore, need a variety of housing options. Their housing needs vary depending on the type of disability and may vary throughout an individual's life depending on the degree of disability and individual circumstances. Special Needs Populations. Several common themes and issues emerged from the Consolidated Plan needs assessment, discussions with community - based organizations, and the analysis that provides a good starting point in understanding how to serve persons with special needs i� � t he City more effectively: Lack of Income: Organizations that assist special needs groups indicated that persons with special needs find it extremely difficult to maintain employment. Therefore, they often cannot afford many of the housing and supportive services they need and must rely upon public assistance. City of Baldwin Park 1 - 6 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 • Discrimination: While there are differences in the intensity of opposition to housing for the different special needs populations, individuals reported that landlords often did not want to rent to persons with special needs. NIMBY, the "Not In My Back Yard" syndrome, was also discussed as a common issue. • Lack of Funding: Agencies indicated the need for additional funding for affordable housing for persons with special needs. They further discussed the lack of funding for the supportive services necessary for persons with special needs. • Education: Another common theme was the need for educating the public regarding a variety of issues, including resources, services, and programs available for lower- income families and persons with special needs. Also cited was the need for prevention education. • Support for Organizations Serving Persons with Special Needs: Another common theme participants expressed was the need for resources (especially for administrative support) for these organizations. VII. Non - housing Community Development Needs Assessment: This chapter examines "non- housing" community development needs in Baldwin Park such as planning, economic development, public services, and public facilities. The CDBG regulations categorize the types of programs and projects that are eligible for funding. The categories include community improvements, community facilities, economic development, accessibility needs and community services. The Non - Housing Community Development Needs Assessment revealed that infrastructure improvements, public services, youth services„ employment /training services, and tenant /landlord counseling were high prinrity needc . nnedi:.1m needs innh irierl senior services, substance abuse services, and job creation. VIII. Barriers to Affordable Housing: This chapter examines barriers to affordable housing and the City's strategy for addressing those barriers. Although each specific affordable housing development proposal has unique challenges, some of the more common barriers to the development of affordable housing include: • Building codes and standards. • Zoning. • Land use controls. • Citizen opposition based on unfounded neighborhood criticism. • Lack of knowledge of available subsidies and resources. • Resource fragmentation and scarcity. City of Baldwin Park 1 - 7 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 • Housing acquisition finance requirements. • Lack of private financial resources by housing providers. IX. Impediments to Fair Housing: This chapter describes the impediments to fair housing choices in Baldwin Park. The City has prepared the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice as part of its 5 -year consolidated plan cycle. Fair Housing Analysis of Impediments that addresses localized issues affecting fair housing issues /choices. The analysis entitled Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice for the City of Baldwin Park was completed and is available for review by the public. It assesses housing segregation in the private market; housing and lending discrimination based on race, national origin, familial status, and disability; racial attitude; housing segregation and discrimination in public and subsidized housing; and public policies affecting fair housing choice. The analysis revealed the following findings, which are impediments to fair housing: The A.I. revealed the following three (3) findings: 1. Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities. 2. Lack of Awareness of Fair Housing Laws. 3. Lending Discrimination Based on Race. X. Lead -based Paint Hazards: This chapter summarizes the lead -based paint hazards in housing. Lead poisoning is one of the most common and preventable health hazards to American children. Research indicates that even a low -level of lead in a child's bloodstream can have harmful effects on their physical and developmental health. Anv housing built before 1978 is at risk of containing some amount of lead - based paint. Older housing is more likely to have lead -based paint and the amount of lead pigment in the paint tends to increase with the age of the housing. Slightly over 13,068 housing units in Baldwin Park were built before 1979. Since low- income people often live in older housing throughout the city, they are at much higher risk. Young children who could ingest lead -based paint are at even higher risk. Consequently, children of very low- and low- income families are disproportionately at risk for lead poisoning, as they tend to reside in older homes. In accordance with the 2000 Census, the number of children in Baldwin Park under the age of five years of age is equivalent to 8.0 percent of the population of the City, or 6,151 children. This group could be at higher risk of lead -based paint poisoning. XI. Housing and Community Development Delivery System: This chapter summarizes the gaps in the City's housing and community development delivery system. As recipient of CDBG and HOME funds, the City of Baldwin City of Baldwin Park 1 - 8 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Park is tasked with the responsibility for developing and carrying out the Consolidated Plan. The City uses these and other funds to provide decent housing, create a suitable living environment, and expand economic opportunities throughout the city. Effective program delivery would not be possible, however, without the efforts of many other Federal, State and local partners. Leadership begins with the City's elected officials. The Mayor and City Council members. These officials approve all Consolidated Plan strategies, activities, substantial amendments, and contracts. Since they represent the residents of the City, these officials also provide insight into the needs of City residents. The City is building strong working relationships with other organizations and programs that support the Consolidated Plan goals and strategies. This working relationship and its results are the City's housing and community development delivery system. The Consolidated Plan requirements include examining how organizations in the city "deliver" housing and community development (called the institutional structure). This examination includes identifying the gaps in the institutional structure and developing strategies to address the gaps. Baldwin Park can only achieve its Comprehensive Plan goals and Consolidated Plan strategies if its institutional structure is complete. Interviews, community meetings, and needs surveys included questions or comments concerning the current gaps in the local delivery system for housing and community development. They also discussed preliminary components of strategies for filling the most troublesome gaps. Several primary themes and issues emerged that provide a foundation for developing workable, collaborative strategies to fill the gaps: • Lack of knowledge among the public and lower income clients is a common issue. The most common gap is limited knowledge of the available resources, services, and programs for lower income people and persons with special needs. • An need for affordable housing, especially supportive housing for lower - income people and persons with special needs. • Continued support for services for the homeless and persons with special needs. • Need for enhanced communication /coordination among organizations in the housing and community development delivery system. XII. Anti - poverty Strategy: This chapter describes how CDBG projects are part of the City's efforts to move low- income families to self- sufficiency. By undertaking activities funded by the CDBG programs, the City supports the overall anti - poverty strategy of moving low- income people to self- sufficiency. Census data from the year 2000 indicates that 13,541 Baldwin Park residents City of Baldwin Park 1 - 9 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 were living in poverty in 1999, which is 18.2 percent of the population. This number translates to 2,323 families, or 15.4percent of the families in Baldwin Park. Just slightly over 15.5 percent of these families had a child under the age of 5 years old. The City of Baldwin Park's anti - poverty strategy and activities support the overall effort in the State to move low- income families to economic self - sufficiency. The City's goal is to help families that are self- sufficient yet still at- risk to increase their financial stability. The focus of the anti - poverty strategy is three -fold: (1) to help these families accumulate assets, (2) to help these families address issues, such as substance abuse and domestic violence, that may threaten the family's stability, and (3) to provide these families with employment - related supportive services such as child -care. This focus will be incorporated into the programs and policies undertaken by the City as part of this Consolidated Plan. i. Strategic Plan: This chapter presents the City's strategies to meet the housing and community development needs found in the previous sections. Based on the community survey, focus groups, consultation with other organizations, individual interviews, housing market and needs study, and other factors, the City of Baldwin Park has developed the following five -year strategies to address the priority needs found in the Consolidated Plan: Priority Need: Housing 5 -Year Strategy. Expand the supply of affordable rental and homeownership housing opportunities. 5 -Year Strategy: Preserve and improve the existing housing stock and ensure equal access. Priority Need: Youth Services 5 -Year Strategy: Provide youth with appropriate health, recreational, educational, and other services that help them to develop into well - rounded, well- adjusted and independent adults Priority Need: Senior Services 5 -Year Strategy: Provide quality supportive services so elderly residents can live as independently as possible. Priority Need: Special Needs / Non - Homeless • 5 -Year Strategy: Help persons with special needs to live as independently as possible. City of Baldwin Park 1 - 10 2010 -2014 Consolidated flan Draft 03/25/10 Priority Need: Homeless • 5 -Year Strategy. Support a continuum of services in support of the City's and County's efforts to end homelessness.

Priority Need: Public Facilities • 5 -Year Strategy: Provide access to local public facilities that contribute to community and neighborhood development. XIV. Monitoring Standards and Procedures: This chapter describes how the City monitors CDBG projects as well as its progress in carrying out Consolidated Plan strategies and objectives. As the lead agency for the City of Baldwin Park 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan, the Housing Department is continually honing its standards and procedures to monitor the performance and effectiveness of housing and community development activities. Monitoring of the City's contractors and sub - recipient partners is not just a regulatory process or a fact - finding mission. Rather, it involves effective communication and cooperative, problem - solving relationships between the City and its contractors/sub- recipients. City of Baldwin Park I - 11 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 The City undertakes two types of monitoring: project monitoring and Consolidated Plan monitoring. Both types of monitoring ensure the success of Consolidated Plan projects and activities. As the lead agency, the Housing Department is constantly refining monitoring procedures to ensure that projects have measurable outcomes. This constant refinement ensures long -term compliance with all applicable program regulations and statutes. XV. Leveraging: This chapter provides a list of resources that public agencies, neighborhoods, and nonprofit organizations can use to further the strategies in the Consolidated Plan. The City anticipates that the Federal, State, local, and private resources listed in this section of the Consolidated Plan will remain available over the five -year period of the Consolidated Plan. City of Baldwin Park 1 - 12 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 L � �� + � \q\ /� dA4 Community Profile II. Community Profile A. City - History Baldwin Park began as part of cattle grazing land belonging to the San Gabriel Mission. It eventually became part of the Rancho Azusa de Dalton and the Rancho La Puente properties. With the decline of cattle ranching due to severe drought, the area north of the present Ramona Boulevard was settled by small farmers /squatters. The community, named "Pleasant View ", was composed of small farms and vineyards, shaded by pepper trees. Water shortage was a major problem — farmers with no wells were forced to haul water in from the San Gabriel River. Since irrigation was not utilized, all crops depended upon rainfall for water. The community's name was changed to "Vineland" in 1880, with business centered around the General Store at today's Los Angeles and La Rica Streets. By 1906 the name had changed to Baldwin Park. It was named after Elias J. "Lucky" Baldwin, a colorful individual whose exploits were well known. In 1956 Baldwin Park became the 47th incorporated city in the State of California. In the 1950s Vias Turkey Ranch was about one mile from the now 10 Freeway just off of Frazier Avenue. It was not only a huge commercial turkey ranch but famous in the Valley for a huge outdoor aviary with a unique selection of birds. The ranch had two -to three types of deer species. When the value of the land escalated, the property was sold and the Ranch moved to Apple Valley. The Milikan Dairy was on Frazier where area schools brought students on field trips. Popular pastimes in the 1950s included riding at the horse stables across the bridge of the San Gabriel River, which was an open sand and rock river bed.' B.

Testament to the City's commitment to investment and reinvestment in the community are significant projects that maintain the current high level of public safety, focus resources in Baldwin Park's neighborhoods and provide enhanced recreational, educational and cultural activities. An important component program for Baldwin Park is the identification of key opportunity areas for commercial and industrial development. Fifteen such areas were defined aS part of the General Plan prOaram. These Focus Areas represent locations where long -term change and improvement are desired.2 Baldwin Park is the city in which the famous In -N -Out burgers were founded. The restaurant opened back in 1948 still stands today as part of the City's and In -N -Out's history, since they have constructed a bigger dine -in restaurant next to it.

State Route 210 (previously Route 30) or Foothill Freeway is within 3 miles, and was recently extended from the easterly section of Los Angeles County to connect with interstate 10 at Redlands. The City of Baldwin Park is largely developed, and efforts are focused on the redevelopment of land within the project areas. The City is encouraging market supportable commercial and industrial uses that can help provide greater fiscal strength and stability. Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is located approximately 35 miles southwest of Baldwin Park. A more convenient and growing transportation opportunity is Ontario International Airport (ONT), a medium -hub, full- service airport with commercial jet service to major U.S. cities and through service to many international destinations. ONT is located in the Inland Empire, approximately 22 miles east of Baldwin Park and 35 miles east of downtown Los Angeles in the center of Southern California. The airport is the centerpiece of one of the fastest - growing transportation regions in the United States. ONT's service area includes a population of six million people living in San Bernardino and Riverside Counties and portions of north Orange County and east Los Angeles County. In 2002, 6.5 million passengers used the airport and 547,461 tons of airfreight was shipped. The option of these two major air transportation facilities is a strong incentive to attract business to the City.

As of September 1882, the first schoolhouse was built on the southeast corner of North Maine and Los Angeles Avenues in 1884. It contained two rows of double seats, a central aisle leading to the teacher's desk, and a heating stove at the north end. Mr. Frazier was the first teacher. In April 1888, The Vineland School District was established according to county records. The first Board of Trustees took office on July 1, 1888, and elected Miss Jessie Washburn to teach the district school that fall. The building was sold in 1890 and moved to another site for a private residence. The district built the second school in 1890 and hired two teachers, Miss Ellen Lang and Miss Venna O. Finney. The second schoolhouse was relegated to the past in 1912. It later became a private Japanese school and stood as a landmark until it caught fire one September 5, 1936, and burned to the ground. On January 10, 1910, Baldwin Park, then known as Vineland, joined the Covina Union High School District. All high school students went to Covina until Baldwin Park School District unified in the early 1950s. In 1912, a larger school was built and it was named Central School. It was completed in 1922. In 1914, the community of Vineland changed its name to Baldwin Park, and the name of the district was officially changed to Baldwin Park School District. Another school was started in 1924 and it was completed in 1927. Margaret Heath had been a teacher since 1906, so in 1924 she was appointed principal of the new school and John Hampton Watts was appointed the district's first superintendent. Upon Mrs. Heath's retirement in 1930, the school was named in her honor. Central School, built in 1912, was sold to the City of Baldwin Park and a new Central School was built in 1052 at n different location, Heath School, built in 1924 was torn down and a new Heath School was built on the same site in 1954. As the district continued to grow, Kenmore, the third school, was built in 1939. It is in full operation today. During the 1940s, the three schools in the district adequately housed the elementary grade students of Baldwin Park. After World War II, growth 12 the area continued throughout the 1950s and 1960s, so new schools were built accordingly. The last new school, Olive, was built in 1968, although quite a few relocatable classrooms have been added to the elementary schools, the adult school, and the continuation high school. Today, there are 13 elementary schools, 4 junior high schools, 2 comprehensive high schools, one continuation high school, an adult school of 5,000, and a Children's Center. City of Baldwin Park II - 6 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 *: 10-1 »: *< � .. .. � .� + # » w 2 » «� r� Consolidated Plan Development III. Consolidated Plan Development A. Introduction The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires Baldwin Park to complete a Consolidated Plan to receive funds for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, and HOME Investment Partnership Act (HOME). CDBG can fund a variety of activities to help low- income people and neighborhoods, such as housing rehabilitation, community services, infrastructure, economic development, and business assistance. The HOME program can fund housing - related activities for lower- income people such as housing construction, housing rehabilitation, first -time homebuyer assistance, and rental assistance. B. Purpose of the Consolidated Plan The Consolidated Plan serves as: ■ A planning document which builds on a comprehensive consultation and citizen's participation process; • Ana application for HUD funds; Pp - • A strategy for housing, homelessness, community development, and economic development; and • An annual business plan that presents an investment strategy for the CDBG Program. It contains six major components, including: • A housing market analysis; • An assessment of housing, homelessness, community development, economic development, and related needs; • A description of priority needs; • Long -term strategies to address those priority needs; • An explanation of how the City will work with its partners in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors to carry out these strategies; and • An Annual Action Plan, which is a description of annual projects and activities the City of Baldwin Park will undertake to pursue its housing and community development strategies. Each component of the Consolidated Plan serves a specific purpose. The housing market analysis and needs assessment allow the City to determine existing needs. Identifying needs helps the City set priorities for its CDBG program. Finally, assessing needs and identifying priorities allows the Agency, with the advice of citizens and partner organizations, to set five -year strategies to address the priority City of Baldwin Park III - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan Development needs. The City then proposes how to invest CDBG funds for projects in the coming program year to carry out those five -year strategies. The Annual Action Plan and Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report. To receive CDBG funds, the City must produce an Annual Action Plan each year. The Annual Action Plan describes the City's planned investments for the coming program year, including proposed actions and proposed projects. The Annual Action Plan is similar to a yearly operating plan for a business. It outlines the City's proposed activities in several areas and relates these activities back to the five -year strategies to address priority needs described in the Consolidated Plan. The City must also submit a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) each year. The CAPER reports the City's progress in meeting its proposed actions and projects, as well as its progress in carrying out the Consolidated Plan's five -year strategies. The CAPER is similar to an annual report to stockholders except with this example, the stockholders are citizens and taxpayers. 1. Consolidated Plan Goals Baldwin Park must use its CDBG funds to provide decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanded economic opportunity for its residents, particularly those earning low- to moderate - incomes. The statutes' for the Federal grant programs covered by the Consolidated Plan set forth three basic goals against which HUD will evaluate the City's performance: Provide decent housing, which includes activities to: rteip homeless people obtain appropriate I [Uu011 ]y. ■ Assist people threatened with homelessness. ■ Retain the affordable housing stock. ■ Make available permanent housing that is accessible to job opportunities and is affordable to low- income people and families without discrimination. ■ Increase the supply of supportive housing for persons with special needs. Provide a suitable living environment, which includes activities to: Improve safety and livability of neighborhoods. Increase access to quality facilities and services. Reduce isolation of income groups within an area through decentralization of housing opportunities and revitalization of deteriorating neighborhoods. ' The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 and the National Affordable Housing Act (as amended). City of Baldwin Park III - 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan Development • Restore and preserve properties of special value for historic, architectural, or aesthetic reasons. • Conserve energy resources. Expand economic opportunity, which includes activities to: ■ Create and retain jobs, especially for low- income people. • Expand small businesses. • Provide public services concerned with employment. • Increase access to capital and credit for development activities that promote the long -term socioeconomic viability of the City. • Empower low- income persons to achieve self- sufficiency to reduce generations of poverty in federally assisted public housing. 2. Institutional Structure /Consultation The City of Baldwin Park prepared this Consolidated Plan to promote these statutory goals through a collaborative process that encourages citizen participation and collaboration among organizations. It views these goals as an opportunity to extend and strengthen partnerships among organizations in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors. In the preparation of the Consolidated Plan, the City has obtained input from agencies such as the County of Los Angeles, the State of California Housing and Community Development (HCD) Department, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, California Department of Health Services, National Center for Lead Safe Housing, and Community Action Partnership of Los Angeles. The City has consulted with organizations that provide housing and supportive services. A list those agencies can be found in Appendix 1. 3. Lead Agency The City of Baldwin Park Housing Department is the lead agency. The Housing Department, along with its housing and community development partners will be responsible for carry out programs to address the five -year strategies in the Consolidated Plan. C. Community Involvement in the 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan The City of Baldwin Park views the Consolidated Plan as an opportunity to invest its CDBG resources. It urges citizens to voice their concerns and share their ideas concerning community development, affordable housing, and homelessness. It encourages all residents, especially those living in low- and moderate- income neighborhoods, to participate in the planning process. The Consolidated Plan process brings government agencies, community organizations, service providers, and City residents together to address the larger City of Baldwin Park III - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan Development picture in which housing and community development programs operate. The City of Baldwin Park encourages agencies, businesses, and community groups to share their comments on needs, strategies, and proposed projects. 1. Summary of Citizen Participation The City of Baldwin Park developed the Baldwin Park 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan using substantial citizen participation and consultation.

Residents Survey A Needs Assessment survey (see Appendix "A ") was distributed at various public facilities and was forwarded to a number of public service, community based organizations, and other stakeholders that serve the City of Baldwin Park. In addition, the survey was posted in the City's website to allow visitors to download the form for completion. The surveys were distributed and posted on the website in an effort to garner citizen comments on the needs of the community. The survey was broken down into seven sections. The sections were Community Facilities, Community Services, Infrastructure, Neighborhood Services, Special Needs Services, Business and Jobs, and Housing. The survey asked the residents to rate the need level for each of the items listed in the survey. The results of the survey are also included in Appendix "A." 3. Community Meetings for Consolidated Phan To garner the opinion of Baldwin Park's residents on community needs, the - Housing Department held three community meetings at the Julia McNeil Senior Center. The time and location was selected to make it as convenient to the public as possible, particularly actual and potential beneficiaries of program activities. The Community meetings were held on Thursday October 8, 2009, Saturday October 10, 2009, and Tuesday October 13, 2009. Comments were received and are included in Appendix B. 4.

Baldwin Park residents may obtain copies of the full version of written or public hearing comments by contacting the City of Baldwin Park Finance Department. The City's Citizen Participation Plan must include an Anti - displacement and Relocation Plan that describes how it will help persons who must be temporarily relocated or permanently displaced due to the use of CDBG funds. This plan takes effect whenever the City fNinds proierts that in\inl\ie the following; ■ Property acquisition. • Potential displacement of people from their homes and the need to relocate people (either permanently or temporarily). • The demolition or conversion of low- and moderate - income dwelling units. .. Two acts apply whenever any of the above issues are present: the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Policies Act of 1970 (URA) and Section 104(d) of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. Each of these acts places different obligations on the City. The URA governs the processes and procedures which the City must follow to minimize the burden placed on low- and moderate - income tenants, property owners, and business owners who must move (either temporarily or City of Baldwin Park III - 6 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan Development permanently) as the result of a project funded in whole or in part by the CDBG program. The URA applies to: • Displacement that results from acquisition, demolition, or rehabilitation for HUD - assisted projects carried out by public agencies, nonprofit organizations, private developers, or others. • Real property acquisition for HUD - assisted projects (whether publicly or privately undertaken). • Creation of a permanent easement or right of way for HUD - assisted projects (whether publicly or privately undertaken). • Work on private property during the construction of a HUD - assisted project even if the activity is temporary. 2. What is Displacement? Displacement occurs when a person moves as a direct result of federally assisted acquisition, demolition, conversion, or rehabilitation activities, because he or she is: • Required to move, or • Not offered a decent, safe, sanitary and affordable unit in the project, or ■ Treated "unreasonably" as part of a permanent or temporary move. ■ A person may also be considered displaced if the necessary notices are not given or provided in a timely manner and the person moves for any reason. 3. What is a Displaced Person? The term displaced person means any person that moves from real property or moves his or her personal property from real property permanently as a direct result of one or more of the following activities: • Acquisition of or written notice of intent to acquire, or initiation of negotiations to acquire, such real property, in whole or in part, for a project. • Rehabilitation or demolition of such real property for a project. • Rehabilitation, demolition, or acquisition (or written notice of intent) of all or a part of other real property on which the person conducts a business or farm operation, for a project. • Baldwin Park offers advisory and financial assistance to eligible tenants (or homeowners) who meet the above definition. City of Baldwin Park III - 7 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan Development 4. Persons Not Eligible for Assistance A person is not eligible for relocation assistance under the provisions of the URA if any of the following occurs: • The person was evicted for serious or repeated violation of the terms and conditions of the lease or occupancy agreement, violation of applicable Federal, State, or local law, or other good cause. However, if the person was evicted only to avoid the application of URA, then that person is considered displaced and is eligible for assistance. • The person has no legal right to occupy the property under State or local law. ■ The City determines that the person occupied the property to obtain relocation assistance and the HUD Field Office concurs in that determination. • The person is a tenant - occupant that moved into the property after a certain date, specified in the applicable program regulation, and, before leasing and occupying the property, Baldwin Park or its subgrantee provided the tenant - occupant written notice of the application for assistance, the project's impact on the person, and the fact that he or she would not qualify as a "displaced person" because of the project. • The person is a tenant - occupant of a substandard dwelling that is acquired or a tenant - occupant of a dwelling unit to which emergency repairs are undertaken and the HUD field office concurs that: ■ Such repairs or acquisition will benefit the tenant; • Bringing the unit up to a safe, decent, and sanitary condition is not feasible; • The tenant's new rent and average estimated monthly utility costs will not exceed the greater of: the old rent /utility costs or 30 percent of gross household income; and • The project will not impose any unreasonable change in the character or use of the property. • The person is an owner - occupant of the property who moves because of an arm's length acquisition. • Baldwin Park or its subgrantee notifies the person that they will not displace him or her for the project. • The person retains the right of use and occupancy of the real property for life following the acquisition. • Baldwin Park determines that the person is not displaced as a direct result of the acquisition, rehabilitation, or demolition for the project and the HUD field office concurs in the determination. City of Baldwin Park III -8 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan Development 5. Minimizing Displacement As a general philosophy, Baldwin Park will take reasonable steps to minimize displacement occurring as a result of its CDBG activities. This means that the City will: • Consider if displacement will occur as part of funding decisions and project feasibility determinations. • Assure, whenever possible that occupants of buildings to be rehabilitated are offered an opportunity to return. • Plan substantial rehabilitation projects in "stages" to minimize displacement. • Meet all HUD notification requirements so that affected persons do not move because they have not been informed about project plans and their rights. 6. Anti - Displacement Policy: Baldwin Park's policy is to minimize, to the greatest extent feasible, the displacement, whether permanently or temporarily, of persons (families, individuals, businesses, nonprofit organizations, or farms) from projects funded with CDBG involving single- or multi - family rehabilitation, acquisition, commercial rehabilitation, demolition, economic development, or capital improvement activities. Projects that Baldwin Park deems beneficial but that may cause displacement may be recommended and approved for funding only if Baldwin Park or its subgrantee demonstrates that such displacement is necessary and vital to the project and that they take efforts to reduce the number of persons displaced. Further, they must clearly demonstrate that the goals and anticipated accomplishments of a project outweigh the adverse effects of displacement imposed on persons who must relocate. 7. Displacement Assistance Consistent with the goals and objectives of the CDBG program, Baldwin Park will take all reasonable steps necessary to minimize displacement of persons, even temporarily. If displacement occurs, the City will provide relocation assistance to all persons directly, involuntarily, and permanently displaced according to HUD regulations. If Baldwin Park temporarily displaces a low- or moderate - income household, that household becomes eligible for certain relocation payments. The assistance applies to those persons residing in the residence at the time the application is processed and is based on the following procedures: ■ If the structure and its occupants are determined eligible for temporary relocation assistance, the owner - occupants and tenants are eligible for the City of Baldwin Park III -9 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan Development actual reasonable cost (based on fair market rent) of temporary lodging facilities until the structure is determined habitable by Baldwin Park' Building Department. Baldwin Park must approve housing and the Lessor and Lessee must sign a rental agreement before move -in. Housing must be comparable functionally to the displacement dwelling and decent, safe, and sanitary. This does not mean that the housing must be of comparable size. The term "functionally equivalent" means that it performs the same function, has the same principal features present, and can contribute to a comparable style of living. Approved lodging accommodations include apartments and houses. Baldwin Park does not reimburse "rental expenses" for living with a friend or family member. Either Baldwin Park will provide the owner - occupants and tenants a direct payment for moving expenses (to and from temporary housing) and storage costs, or Baldwin Park will arrange moving and storage of furniture with a moving company. If Baldwin Park makes a direct payment, complete documentation and receipts are necessary to process claims when storage costs exceed the amount assumed by the direct payment. Damage deposits, utility hookups, telephone hookups and insurance costs are not eligible for reimbursement. The City may pay the cost of relocation assistance from Federal funds or funds available from other sources. • One-For-One - -, . - Dwelling Baldwin Park will generally avoid awarding funds for activities resulting in displacement. However, should Baldwin Park fund an activity, specific documentation is required to show the replacement of all occupied and vacant dwelling units UCi ii IVltsl ICU or converted to another iii use. vaidiivii Parn will assure that relocation assistance is provided as described in 24 CFR 570.606(b)(2). Before obligating or expending funds that will directly result in such demolition or conversion, Baldwin Park will make public and submit to the HUD field office the following information in writing: A description of the proposed assisted activity. The general location on a map and approximate number of dwelling units by size (number of bedrooms) that will be demolished or converted to a use other than as low- and moderate - income units. A time schedule for the commencement and completion of the demolition or conversion. City of Baldwin Park III - 10 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan Development • The general location on a map and approximate number of dwelling units by size (number of bedrooms) that will be provided as replacement units. • The source of funding and a time schedule for the provision of replacement dwelling units. ■ The basis for concluding that each replacement dwelling unit will remain a low- and moderate - income unit for at least ten years from the date of initial occupancy. Consistent with the goals and objectives of the CDBG program, Baldwin Park will take all reasonable steps necessary to minimize displacement of persons from their homes. The City will avoid funding projects that cause displacement of persons or businesses and will avoid funding any project that involves the conversion of low- and moderate - income housing to non - residential purposes. 9. Decent, Safe and Sanitary Dwelling The basic definition is found at 49 CFR 24.2 (a)(8). The term decent, safe, and sanitary dwelling means a dwelling that meets the following standards and any other housing and occupancy codes that are applicable. It will: ■ Be structurally sound, weather tight, and in good repair. ■ Contain a safe electrical wiring system adequate for lighting and other devices. ■ Contain a safe heating system capable of sustaining a healthful temperature for the displaced person. = Be adequate to accommodate the displaced person. There will be a separate, well lit, ventilated bathroom that provides privacy to the user and contains a toilet, sink, and a bathtub or shower, all in good working order and properly connected to appropriate sources of water and to a sewage drainage system. There should be a kitchen area that contains a fully usable sink, properly connected to hot and cold water and to a sewage drainage system, and adequate space and utility service connections for ,@ stove and refrigerator. ■ Contain unobstructed egress to safe, open space at ground level. ■ For a mobility- impaired person, be free of any barriers that would preclude reasonable ingress, egress, or use of the dwelling by such person. This requirement will be satisfied if the displaced person elects to relocate to a dwelling that he or she selects and the displaced person determines that he or she has reasonable ingress, egress, and the use of the dwelling. ■ Comply with lead -based paint requirements of 24 CFR Part 35. City of Baldwin Park III - 11 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan Development 10. Real Property Policies The City and its CDBG recipients must follow specific guidelines regarding the acquisition and use of real property funded in whole or in part with CDBG funds. 11. Use of Real Property The following standards apply to real property within the recipient's control and acquired or improved, in whole or in part, using CDBG funds. These standards will apply from the date funds are first spent for the property until five years after the project is audited and closed. A recipient may not change the use of any such property (including the beneficiaries of such use) from that for which the acquisition or improvement was made unless the recipient gives affected citizens reasonable notice of, and opportunity to comment on, any such proposed change, and either: The use of such property qualifies as meeting a national objective and is not a building for the general conduct of government. The requirements in the paragraph below are met. If the recipient determines, after consultation with affected citizens, that it is appropriate to change the use of property to a use that does not qualify under the above paragraph, it may retain or dispose of the property. The Baldwin Park CDBG program must be reimbursed in the amount of the current fair market value of the property less any portion attributable to expenditures of non - federal funds for the acquisition of and improvements to the property. If the change of use occurs within five years of the project being audited and closed, income from the disposition i of the real property will be returned to the Baldwin Park CDBG program. Following the reimbursement of the federal program pursuant to the above paragraph of this section, the property is no longer subject to any federal requirements. 12. Real Property Acquisition All real property acquisition activities described in this section and funded in whole or in part with CDBG funds and all real property that must be acquired for an activity assisted with Federal funds, regardless of the actual funding source for the acquisition, are subject to the URA (as amended). a. What is Real Property Acquisition? City of Baldwin Park III - 12 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Consolidated Plan Development Real property acquisition is any acquisition by purchase, lease, donation, or otherwise, including the acquisition of such interests as rights -of -way and permanent easements. HUD Handbook 1378 and 49 CFR Part 24 currently contains such regulations. These regulations detail a standard procedure for acquiring property and methods of determining a purchase price and outline other documents that must be provided to Baldwin Park before disbursement of funds. These regulations further require the applicant to provide relocation payments and assistance to any business or residential occupant of the property whom the acquisition will displace. 13. Eligible Activities Baldwin Park or its sub - grantee may acquire real property for a project using CDBG funds where the proposed use of the acquired property will be an activity that the City can demonstrate as beneficial to low- and moderate - income persons. 14. Environmental Review Process (24 CFR Part 58) HUD requires that all real property acquisition projects be reviewed before the commitment of Federal funds to assess the impact of a project on the environment. Baldwin Park will undertake this review process. The applicant should be aware, however, that this review process may delay the date by which CDBG funds may be available and, in case of serious adverse environmental impacts, may effectively stop a project.

Housing Market Analysis A. Overview The purpose of this study is to determine the availability of affordable housing in the City of Baldwin Park. It is in the City's interest to ensure that its housing stock is comprised of decent and suitable affordable units, as affordable housing is the basis and foundation of self- sufficiency. For the purposes of this plan, the City will define affordable housing based on Section 215 of the National Affordable Housing Act: ■ Rental Housing is considered affordable if it is (A) occupied by a household earning less than 80 percent of the area median income and (B) pays a rent no more than the existing fair market rent established by HUD. ■ Owner - occupied Housing is considered affordable if it is (A) the principal residence of the owner, whose income is less than 80 percent of the area median income, and (B) the purchase price is not more than 95`x% of the median purchase price for the area. In order to gauge the availability of affordable housing within the City, this study examined the following aspects of the current housing market: ■ Supply: Current housing stock by size of units; units in structure and age of unit; recent Permit Activity; available vacant land. ■ Demand: Number of households by size and type; vacancy rates; population growth; economic outlook and job growth. ■ Supply vs. Demand: Sales data; rent increases; overcrowded housing; cost - burdened households. Based on this information, the City formulated different levels of need for three (3) income levels: moderate- income households, low- income households, and extremely low- income households. These levels of need will form the basis for the City's Five -Year Strategic Plan. ■ Moderate - income households earn between 50 and 80 percent of the area median income. ■ Low- income households earn between 30 and 50 percent of the area median income. ■ Extremely low- income households earn less than 30 percent of the area median income. In addition to the private housing market, the City examined the inventory of public and assisted housing to determine the level of need for the following types of housing and services: City of Baldwin Park IV - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 alysis Homeless Facilities and Services: includes homeless prevention, emergency housing, transitional housing, permanent supportive housing and supportive services. Supportive Housing: includes elderly, persons with disabilities, persons suffering from substance abuse and persons living with HIV /AIDS. Public Housing and Subsidized Housing: includes Low Income Housing Tax Credit Units, public housing developments and Section 8, HUD multi - family developments, and locally- funded housing. B. Housing Supply The City reviewed several variables of the community's housing stock in order to gain a complete understanding of the available supply of homes. This section covers the supply, tenancy, condition, and other characteristics of existing housing stock, as well as touch on future housing development. Note that some of the tables reflect housing data from the 2000 U.S. Census and the 2006 -2008 American Community Survey (ACS) based on occupied units and not the total number of housing units located in the City. The tables where this occurs will contain a note denoting such. Overall Supply The overall number of housing units in Baldwin Park grew at a low rate throughout the 1990's. The 2000 U.S. Census indicates that Baldwin Park's current housing stock contains 17,430 units, an increase of 1.5 percent, or 251 units, from 1990. In accordance with the ACS, the City's housing stock has increased to 18,090 units which is an increase of 3.8 percent or 660 units from 2000. 2. Tenure The rate of homeownership has remained relatively constant in Baldwin rain. The 59.4 percent homeownership rate is slightly lower than the national rate of 66.2 percent. It should be noted that homeownership rate has increased at a similar rate as throughout the United States. In addition, the homeownership rate has remained constant at 60.4 percent in the ACS 2006 -2008 estimates. Recent decreases in the cost of housing may result in homeownership being more attainable to families of modest income. Currently, low interest rates on mortgages are giving potential homeowners more buying power and have brought homeownership within reach of some families who were previously excluded when rates were higher.

The table shows that under the 2000 census, 57 percent of all Baldwin Park housing units contain between two to three bedrooms. Approximately 24 percent of the units are one - bedroom units. Combine these figures and 81 percent of the City's housing units contain from one to three bedrooms. Eleven percent or 1,784 units are considered to be efficiencies. Less than one percent of the units have more than five bedrooms. Combined, the four and five bedroom units make up eight percent of the housing units in the City. Under the 2006 -2008 ACS, the percentages remained relatively level with the exception of efficiencies and 4 bedroom units.

Housing Type Single- family detached units currently account for a majority of the housing stock in the City. Just over 67 percent of all units are detached single- family units while attached single - family units, such as townhouses and condominiums, account for 11 percent. City of Baldwin Park IV - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Housing Market Analysis Existing multifamily housing is often packaged in small complexes with less than ten units. These units account for eight (8) percent of all housing stock. In the 2000 Census, structures with ten or more units account for 14 percent. Many of these structures were built between 1940 and 1980. The 2006 -2008 ACS estimates a reduction in the percentages of structures with ten or more units to 11.8 percent. Mobile homes have traditionally filled a unique and useful niche for the lower income housing market. These units are recognized as a viable solution to the shortage of affordable housing. According to the 2006 -2008 ACS, the number of mobile homes has experienced a increase in recent years and currently account for 2.3 percent of housing in the City, or 411 units. Land in Baldwin Park is becoming too valuable to use as mobile home parks. Owners of existing parks are considering selling their land for development.

City of Baldwin Park IV - 4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Housing Market Analysis C. Age of Housing Stock According to the latest Census figures, the majority of the City's housing stock was built between 1950 and 1969. This coincides with one of the City's booming economic growth periods. During that period 7,802 units were built, accounting for approximately 46 percent of the City's current housing stock. Unfortunately, many of the units were built using low quality materials that did not follow any quality or design standards. Age has been taking its toll on these units, which are candidates for rehabilitation. The condition of mobile homes has become more of an issue as the units' age and decrease in value while the residentially zoned land where they are located becomes more valuable. When parks close, the older and more deteriorated homes cannot be transported without renovations that are unaffordable to the owner.

Units older than 30 years typically need significant repair and rehabilitation to the roof, heating and air conditioning, and other key components. ■ Housing -units built before 1980 may have lead based paint hazards, especially if those units are occupied by households under the poverty line. Households in poverty occupy 2,061 of the housing units built before 1980. Of these units, 64 percent are rentals. D. Housing Permits The City tracks the housing activity as it relates to the number of housing permits issued during a given year. The graph and table provided below shows the recent permit activity for both single - family and multi - family housing. The graph indicates that the number of building permits for single - family residential decreased to a 10 year low in 2008 with permits being issued for 8 new dwelling units. The highest level of permit activity took place in 2002 with permits being issued for 161 new dwelling units. The largest number of permits issued for single- family dwellings occurred in 2004. However, a total of six multi family dwelling units were issued a permit during the 2003 through 2008 calendar years. This generally results in the lack of availability for low- to moderate - income households.

Only 109 single family units have been permitted from 2006 -2008, a decrease of 36 percent. E. Available Land An important component of the Consolidated Plan is the identification of sites for the remainder of the current planning period and future housing development in the planning period. The information in this section is based on the City of Baldwin Park Housing Element 2008 -2014. Opportunities for residential development in the City fall into one of two categories: !.Vacant land that is either designated for residential use or is likely to be designated for residential use in the future. 2. Underutilized residential sites where the current residential use is less intensive than allowed for by the site's zoning designation, and where infrastructure needs for additional development can be met by existing or proposed systems. According to the Housing Element covering the planning period extending from the date of adoption to June 30, 2014, estimates for remaining undeveloped properties within the corporate boundaries of the City, there are more than adequate sites available to accommodate the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) numbers issued by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG). In accordance with SCAG, the City's housing needs for the period of 2008 through 2014 totals 744. The RHNA is broken down further by income categories (very low - income, low- income, moderate - income and above moderate- income) and is provided below.

The major constraint on residential construction is the lack of developable land and the resultant premium cost of finished units as demand exceeds supply. The inventory of vacant land designated for multi - family residential development totals 1.4 acres.

These vacant sites are likely to develop during the planning period, especially due to the limited amount of vacant residential land in the area. Two of the sites located on Ramona Boulevard are adjoining. These two sites have the potential for lot consolidation and the development of at least 10 units. Assuming development at 80 percent of maximum capacity, all of the vacant properties located in the R -3 zone have the potential to yield 23 units. The densities that can be achieved in � this zone are -- appropriate to facilitate the production of housing that is affordable to moderate - income households. Underutilized Land Baldwin Park also has a limited reserve of underutilized land, zoned R -3 and general planned as Multi - Family Residential, which contain lower intensity uses. These properties encompass over 12 acres, are transitional in nature, and can covert to multifamily residential use without Planning Commission or City Council approval. Infill trends in the City indicate that multi - family developments such as apartment and condominium developments are the most likely residential product to be produced. Recycling to higher- intensity uses is very probable given that the scarcity of land in Baldwin Park. The following table presents a summary of residential capacity o�n, underutilized residential land. The City has only identifi °cd proper ties that have the prv'tential for sufficient added capacity to make recycling of land economically feasible. For all properties included in this inventory, realistic capacity (80% of maximum density) was more than twice the number of existing housing units for each parcel. Further, five of the sites involve adjoining parcels, increasing the likelihood of lot consolidation and the development of new housing units. On consolidated lots alone, there is the capacity for 76 new units. Three sites are located in Redevelopment Areas; two of these sites are adjacent to each other (the existing use is residential on both parcels, with a total of 5 units). Together, these two sites have the potential to yield 17 units. One parcel located in the Redevelopment Area is currently used for industrial purposes, but is designated in the General Plan and zoned for residential use. This site has the potential for 31 new dwelling units. The densities that can be achieved in the R -3 areas are appropriate to facilitate the production of housing that is affordable to moderate- income households.

Table 4 -9 Summary of Residential Capacity on Underutilized Residential Land Source: Baldwin Park Housing Element 2008 -2014 Taken together, there is currently a reserve of vacant and underutilized residential land that can accommodate 217 new multi - family units. Mixed -Use Opportunity Areas One of the greatest opportunities for infill development in Baldwin Park is found in areas designated Mixed Use, including the greater downtown area and along North Maine Avenue. The potential for creation of residential units in mixed -use areas is predicated on the interest from developers - expressed to the City - and on the limited opportunities for higher - density development elsewhere in the City or in the immediate surrounding area. Consistent with the Land Use Element, the City encourages residential uses in areas designated as Mixed -Use to support a viable pedestrian district in downtown and along North Maine Avenue. The Land Use Element vision for Mixed -Use consists of both retail and commercial in conjunction with higher- density residential uses. In the Mixed -Use 11 area, either vertically- integrated mixed -use projects are allowed, or stand -alone residential or stand -alone neighborhood commercial may be constructed. A density incentive (0.5 increase in FAR) is offered for commercial projects that include a residential component in Mixed -Use areas. Development within the Mixed -Use areas is permitted to achieve densities of 30 units per acre per the General Plan. Zoning regulations were tailored to facilitate housing development at these densities and will consider appropriate setbacks, heights, and parking requirements. The maximum residential density in the MU -1 zone is 30 dwelling units per acre, with a minimum lot area of 15,000 square feet. In the MU -2 zone, the maximum residential density is 30 dwelling units per acre on lots with a minimum of 20,000 square feet. Lots less than 20,000 square feet have a maximum density of 15 units per acre; the minimum lot area is 10,000 square feet.

H. Cost of Rental Housing -- For the purposes of this analysis, affordable rental housing is defined as units that a low- income family can afford without incurring a housing cost burden and without being "overcrowded." A unit is considered overcrowded when there is more than one person per room. Rooms that are considered in this calculation include bedrooms, living rooms, kitchens, dens, home offices and other finished rooms. This calculation excludes bathrooms and laundry rooms. Different sized units will have different thresholds of affordability. The adjustments in the thresholds will mirror those made for family size in HUD's annual release of Section 8 Income Limits.

City of Baldwin Park IV - 14 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Cost of Owner- Occupied Housing During the period of 2001 through 2006, the cost of single family homes in the City of Baldwin Park increased to the point that the number of families that are able to purchase a home has decreased substantially. The low interest rates during the same time period were part of the impetus for the surge in home prices. With interest rates increasing in 2007, home prices did not follow. This resulted in a decrease in the number of families being able to purchase a home. In addition, households with variable interest rates had problems keeping up with the increased payments and as a result, banks commenced foreclosing on those homes. Within a short period of time, the housing market collapsed and home prices started plummeting. The table below shows the median sales price for single family home in Baldwin Park for the zip code 91706 that corresponds to the City. These numbers represent 2008 values. The results show that on a citywide average, the decrease in single - family home prices in Baldwin Park during the previous 12 month period was approximately 32 percent. Countywide the price of single - family homes decreased in value by 29 percent. Similar conditions occur for condominium or attached single- family dwellings. However, the annual increase was not at the same level as those of the single - family home.

City of Baldwin Park IV - 15 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Housing Market Analysis J. Vacancy This analysis provides a comparison rate for vacancy rates for residential properties in four (4) local counties. The four (4) counties represented are Los Angeles County, Orange County, Riverside County and San Bernardino County. Graph 4 -4 shows a constant vacancy rate for both homeownership and rental properties in the four (4) counties. In comparison, the vacancy rates in the Los Angeles County area for residential properties have maintained a rate of just over 4 percent. In contrast, the vacancy rates in nearby San Bernardino County has been consistently at just under 12 percent over the period studied. Graph 4-4 Housina Vacancy Rates 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 Source: California Dept. of Firiance Los Angeles COUnty Orange County — Riverside County San Bernardino County Key Stats • The housing vacancy rate for Los Angeles County has remained constant for the past 5 years (approx. 4.1 percent). • According to the Southern California Association of Governments, a vacancy rate below 3% points to a severe deficit in the supply of housing. K. Overcrowding Overcrowding is a living condition defined by the Census as more than one (1.1) person living per dwelling room. "Extreme overcrowding" is defined as 1.51 or more persons per room. Current Census data indicates that 17 percent of occupied housing units have rooms that are occupied by 1.01 to 1.50 persons. In addition, 29 percent of the occupied units have rooms that are occupied by 1.51 and above. This means that 54 percent of units have rooms that are occupied by 1 person or less. City of Baldwin Park IV - 16 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Throughout the State, County and City, overcrowding is increasingly becoming a problem. In the last decade, there has been an increase in the number of married couples, children, and other family members living together in units to pay the rent or mortgage. This doubling up is the result of a combination of rising housing costs, population growth, unemployment and an inflow of new immigrants moving into the area. The City of Baldwin Park's overcrowding decreased from 2000 to 2008 to a total of 23.6 percent.2 However, the recent housing decline may result in an increase. The foreclosure phenomenon is adding a new dynamic to the City's housing market. While strict code enforcement helps ensure safety, it may also mean increasing the homeless population, placing lower income households with housing cost burden, or housing discrimination. However, the underlying problem is a shortage of affordable housing. For the most part Baldwin Park's residential code violation process is complaint - driven. Therefore, residents and officials attempt to strike a balance between social understanding and the law to address overcrowding issues. Overcrowding in a home often causes neighbors to be concerned about their property values. Therefore, many of the City's residents bring potential overcrowding hazards to the attention Code Enforcement staff. Therefore, the City will need to continue weighing the benefits and drawbacks to strict code enforcement. Many of the complaints received fall under the Health Depart�i�ent regulation, not a City reg` °In+` ^�; � ^' U GliVl 1 nrNf enforceable by Code Enforcement staff.

Almost half of the dwelling units (7,864) is considered overcrowded. • A disproportionate number of Hispanic Native American, and Other Race households live in overcrowded units. NOTE: It is presumed that most Other Race households are Hispanic. Multiracial, and Pacific Islander also reported a higher than average level of overcrowding. • The lack of housing can create an informal housing market of illegal units, usually consisting of garage conversion. Illegal units are not included in many of the figures presented in this document. This means that the number of overcrowded units may be understated. L. Cost Burdens The table below lists the percentages of monthly income renters paid for housing costs in 1999. Given that any household paying more than 30 percent of monthly income is considered cost burdened, the data from the 2000 Census shows that: 45% percent or 2,931 renter households in Baldwin Park experienced a cost burden by spending 30 percent or more of their income on housing in 1999. In 2008, it is estimated that the number has risen to 60 percent. Of population that was cost burdened: eight (8 %) percent were slightly burdened (30 to 34 percent of income spent on housing) and 15% were moderately burdened (35 to 49 percent of income spent on housing) and 22% were severely cost burdened (50 percent or more of income spent on housing). In 2008, 9.6 percent are slightly burdened with 50.4 percent being moderately or severely burdened.

These households are considered severely cost burdened and at high risk of homelessness. Any break in the flow of income or unexpected expenses, such as loss of employment or hospitalization, would severely jeopardize the household's ability to continue to meet the housing expense. In 2000, the number of severely cost burdened families (renter and homeowner) reached 2,781. Key Statistics • A household is considered cost burdened when it pays more than thirty percent of its gross income for housing costs. At this point the unit is considered unaffordable for the household. Over Forty -five (45 %) percent of all renter households endure a cost burden. Over Forty -two (42 %) percent of all owner households have a housing cost burden. • A household is considered to have a severe cost burden when more than 50 percent of it gross income goes toward housing costs. Households with severe cost burdens run a risk of losing their housing if faced with a loss of employment, sickness, injury, or similar event that reduces income. One of every three renters 2,781 households has a severe cost burden. M. Physical Defects and Substandard Condition HUD considers a unit that lacks a complete kitchen or bathroom to have a physical defect and therefore a housing problem. 2000 Census data indicates that 507 units (2.4 percent of units) lacked complete plumbing or complete kitchen facilities. Current ACS data indicates that 170 units lacked complete plumbing or kitchen facilities.

Since substandard housing can cause serious health and safety issues, the definition of physical defects should not be used as the only definition of substandard housing. The City considers housing units in compliance with local building codes to be standard units. Any housing unit that does not meet these requirements is considered substandard. Common housing code violations make a unit unsafe and /or unsanitary, including problems with wiring, plumbing, windows, roofs and exterior, and heating and air conditioning systems. Most of these units are substandard units that are suitable for rehabilitation. These units, which do not meet local code standards for occupancy but are still in use, though dilapidated and poorly maintained, are suitable for essential repairs to rehabilitate the unit. However, any property found to be structurally unsound or badly deteriorated is considered in substandard condition, unsuitable for rehabilitation. These units may be candidates for reconstruction. These are units that do not meet local code standards for occupancy and are "uninhabitable" as a working residential unit because they no longer contain an enclosed, heated residential unit with working plumbing and electricity. N. Housing Needs HUD requires the following Priority Housing Needs Table to be submitted as part of the Consolidated Plan. The table is organized first by tenancy and then by income. Renter housing needs are further categorized by family type. The information in each category of the Priority Housing Needs Table is defined below. Relative Level of Need A score of low, medium, or high reflects the level of need for this household type relative to the other categories. A category that receives a "low" may in fact have a large number of households in need of assistance, but the City understands that either another agency is servicing these needs or the need is greater for other household types. A medium level of need indicates the City will attempt to satisfy these needs if funding is available or pursue other funding sources to meet these needs.

A City of Baldwin Park IV - 21 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 low need level indicates that the City does not consider the household type a priority or that another organization is sufficiently serving the need. The need level indicates where the City will spend its housing funds. A category assigned a high need level is considered a priority and will receive funding throughout the plan. 2. Estimates of Current Housing Needs The housing assistance needs of low- and moderate- income households (80 percent MFI) in Baldwin Park by household tenure (owner /renter), household type (elderly, large family), and "housing problems" are summarized in the table below. This non - duplicative count of households with "housing problems" includes those that: 1) occupy units with physical defects (lacking complete kitchen or bathroom); 2) live in overcrowded conditions (housing units with more than one person per room); 3) have a housing cost burden, including utilities, exceeding 30 percent of gross income; or 4) have a severe housing cost burden, including utilities, exceeding 50 percent of gross income. The following discussion summarizes the housing assistance needs of Baldwin Park households as identified in the table below by income group.

For renters, housing costs include rent paid by the tenant plus utilities. For owners, housing cost include mortgage payment, taxes, insurance and utilities. 3. Goals The City has developed the following goals. In determining the goals, the historical participation in housing programs by various household types and estimated level of funding over the next five years was considered. Special attention was given to family households as such households are more likely to consist of children further stretching the resources available to low- income families.

Public Housing Needs A. Introduction Public housing and other assisted housing programs are crucial elements of the City's efforts to address the affordable housing needs of low- and moderate- income families in Baldwin Park. The Baldwin Park Housing Authority (BPHA) oversees the City's public housing programs. As a standard performing housing authority, BPHA provides affordable housing for low- income families, seniors, and disabled persons. It manages 12 units of public and other affordable housing at one site in the City. BPHA also administers the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8), which provides rental assistance in all areas of the City and in 5 participating cities. The BPHA is officially recognized by HUD as a Public Housing Agency. The BPHA applies for available voucher programs through Federal affordable housing programs. The BPHA is a division of the City of Baldwin Park. B. Public and Assisted Housing Providers The City of Baldwin Park Housing Department, as part of its mission of collaboration and leveraging, is committed to working with public and assisted housing providers to address housing needs. The following section provides a summary of the various agencies that provide public housing assistance or programs that can be used to create public housing. 1. Baldwin Park Housing Authority The BPHA offers two types of housing assistance programs. These are the Section 8 Assisted Housing Programs and the Public Housing Program. Under both programs, the owner is required to provide decent, safe, and sanitary housing to tenants at a reasonable rent. Inspections are performed initially and at least once annually thereafter to insure that tenants and owners comply with Housing Quality Standards, and other lease and contract provisions. A summary of each program is provided below. Anyone whose income does not exceed 80 percent of median income is eligible to reside in public housing. However, the BPHA is required to target 75 percent of all new admissions from families earning below 30 percent of median income. Specific income limits are defined by HUD and are based on family size and the community in which the unit is located. The BPHA maintains a waiting list based on the date and time the application is submitted. The Public Housing program is comprised of 12 units owned and managed by the BPHA. Residents in the Public Housing program are required to pay rent based on 30% of their adjusted gross income. The Public Housing program City of Baldwin Park V - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Public Housing Needs provides vital assistance for many low- income families and seniors, aggressively addressing the need for affordable housing in the City of Baldwin Park. Section 8 Assisted Housing Program The Section 8 Assisted Housing program was established by the 1974 Housing and Community Development Act and is administered by the BPHA. This federally funded program provides rental assistance in the form of a voucher to very low- income families, senior citizens, disabled, handicapped, and other individuals for the purpose of securing decent, affordable housing. The BPHA is currently managing 500 Section 8 certificates and vouchers units that are located within Baldwin Park. While the City is allocated 882 vouchers, the current budget allocation received from HUD provides for only 500 vouchers to be funded. Under the Housing Choice Voucher Program, subsidy payments are made by the BPHA to property owners on behalf of the family. Assistance is provided to very low-income families including senior citizens, disabled, handicapped, and other individuals. The program uses a Payment Standard to determine the maximum amount of assistance that will be paid on behalf of the family. The family's portion will be a minimum of 30% of their adjusted gross monthly income up to a maximum of 40% if they choose. 2. Federally- Assisted Housing Aside from the programs that the BPHA currently administers, HUD also provides funding for the construction of low- and moderate - income rental housing as authorized under Sections 202, 241, 236, and 811 of the I�atio� gal Affordable Housing Act. Many of these projects also maintain project -based Section 8 contracts to subsidize rents for low- income tenants. HUD Section 236 Loans Housing projects funded under the HUD Section 236 loan program carry 40- year low- income use restrictions. After the first 20 years of the loan, owners participating in this program can choose to prepay the outstanding mortgage loan and opt out of the low- income use restriction. Until recently, prepayment of the Section 236 loan had been regulated by the provisions of the Low Income Housing Preservation and Resident Homeownership Act (LIHPRHA). Under LIHPHRA, the owner of a prepayment- eligible project can choose to retain project ownership in exchange for additional federal incentives, or sell the properties under a voluntary sale program. Where the owner chooses to sell, the residents and non - profit organizations are provided with an exclusive 12- month negotiating period. Prepayment and conversion of the housing to non - low income use can only occur if there is no willing buyer to purchase the project. City of Baldwin Park V-2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Public Housing Needs In light of the budgetary constraints at the federal level, Congress passed the Housing Opportunities Extension Act in 1996, which limits the incentives that can be offered to prepayment - eligible projects in exchange for extending the low- income use restrictions, and allows more flexibility for owners to prepay and sell the projects than previously provided for under LIHPRHA. For all practical purposes, HUD now considers all prepayment - eligible projects to be at risk of converting to market rate housing. HUD Section 8 Project -Based Contracts Projects with Section 8 contracts receive Section 8 rent subsidies that are tied to the project units. Many projects financed with HUD Section 202, 221, and 236 funds also maintain Section 8 contracts with HUD. The contracts typically carry an initial term of 15 -years with the option for five -year extensions thereafter. However, passage of the 1996 Housing Opportunities Extension Act also jeopardized the continued availability of project -based Section 8 assistance. The bell allows owners of projects With Section 8 contracts to opt out of the Section 8 program with a six -month notification prior to expiration of the contracts. For owners who elect to renew the expiring contracts, HUD is giving local HUD offices the authority to renew these contracts on an annual basis pending funding availability. For these reasons, projects with Section 8 contracts are considered at risk of losing their affordability. HUD Section 221 Loans There are typically two types of Section 221 loans - loans with below- market rate interest (221(d)(3)) and loans with market rate interest (221(d)(4)). Projects financed under Section 221(d)(3) have a 40 -year low- income use restriction and the long -term low- income use of these units is therefore considered fairly secure. However, the Section 8 contracts on these projects may still expire due to budgetary constraints at HUD. Projects financed under the Section 221(d)(4) market rate program alone have no binding low- income use restrictions. Typically, these projects also receive project -based Section 8 assistance to maintain the affordability of the units. These projects may be at risk if Section 8 funds are reduced or no longer available. HUD Sections 202/811 These projects are owned by non- profit organizations and low- income use restrictions are locked -in for the full 40 -year mortgage term. The long -term low - income use of these projects is fairly secure as they are required to be owned by non - profit entities. However, the Section 8 contracts on these projects, if any, may still expire due to budgetary constraints at HUD. The City's policy is to emphasize preservation of the existing units when they become available by leveraging funds from existing City programs with HUD resources on a project - by- project basis. City of Baldwin Park V - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Public Housing Needs C. Units at Risk of Conversion HUD requires that the City undertake an analysis of federal, state and locally assisted housing units that may be lost from the City's affordable housing stock. The expiration of affordability restrictions on government assisted rental units is the typical reason of this potential loss. Much of the housing at risk of conversion from affordable housing to market rate housing is predominantly reserved for lower income households. Use restrictions, as defined by State law, means any federal, state or local statute, regulation, ordinance or contract which as a condition of receipt of any housing assistance, including a rental subsidy, mortgage subsidy, or mortgage insurance, to an assisted housing development, establishes maximum limitations on tenant income as a condition of eligibility for occupancy. Table 5 -1 provides an inventory of the assisted units that are at risk of converting to market rate housing. As shown, there are a total of 495 assisted, multi-family rental units in the City, of which 174 are units that are "at- risk" of conversion to market rate. These units received assistance under a combination of HUD programs, Housing Revenue Bonds, the Mortgage Revenue Bond Program, and other Baldwin Park Redevelopment Agency Funds.

Table 5 -1, inventory of assisted units, shows which projects are at -risk, and their potential conversion dates. A brief discussion of each project follows. Clark Terrace: Clark T errace is a 79 -unit apartment complex owned by Goldrich and Kest. Built in 1979, the complex is assisted under HUD's Section 221(d)(4) program, which provides mortgage insurance to private developers to facilitate the development of rental housing. Projects financed under this program have no binding low- income restrictions; however, affordability is controlled by a Section 8 contract. In 1999, the 20 -year Section 8 contract expired. The property owner filled for renewal of the contract which expires in 2011.

The property owner filled for renewal of the contract which expires in 2011. City of Baldwin Park V - 5 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Public Housing Needs Foster Avenue: Foster Avenue is a 40 -unit apartment complex owned by Foster Apartments Corporation, a community based organization. This project was initially funded with a HUD Section 2360)(1) loan. In 1995, the original owner, Southern California Industries, transferred ownership to Foster Apartment Corporation, which received funding from HUD Section 241(f) to purchase the property. The project will remain affordable until the year 2035. Frazier Park: Frazier Park is a 60 -unit apartment complex also owned by Goldrich and Kest. Built in 1982, the complex is assisted under HUD's Section 221(d)(4) program, and affordability of the project is governed by the Section 8 Contract. As of 2008, the project was in the process of getting final approval to extend the contract, which expires in 2008. According to the management company, it is the owners' intent to retain all units in this project as affordable housing for the foreseeable future. Ramona Park: Ramona Park is a 49 -unit apartment complex owned by Goldrich and Kest. Built in 1980, the complex was financed under HUD's Section 8 New Construction and the California Housing Finance Agency (CHFA) programs. The CHFA funding imposes affordability controls on the project until November 2020. The Section 8 contract is also due to expire November 2020. Robert H. McNeill Manor: The Baldwin Park Housing Authority (BP HA) owns and administers Mc Neil Manor, a project -based public housing unit. McNeil Manor is a 12 -unit low- income senior (62 years or older) housing development. The BPHA is currently reviewing the process necessary to convert these units to market -rate units. Conversion is anticipated to be completed during this five - year period. Syracuse Park: Syracuse Park is a 60 -unit apartment complex owned by Syracuse Park LDP. Built in 1972, this project was financed by HUD Section 2360)(1) program, which offers reduced interest loans to developers to construct multi - family oroiects. In return for preferential financing, the project is subject to a low- income restriction, with the option of paying off the loan after 20 years and eliminating the affordability controls. Syracuse Park also received public assistance with Section 8 contract; however, that contract expired 1999. The Section 8 contract has been renewed on an annual basis. In 1991, the owners filed a notice of intent to extend the affordability control on this project in exchange for additional incentives. The proposal was approved and the earliest possible conversion date of this project is 2012. TELACU Las Palomas: Built in 2001, this 75 -unit apartment complex is owned by the East Los Angeles Community Union, a non - profit entity. The project was financed by HUD's Section 202 program, which offers direct loans to agencies that develop housing for elderly and disabled. In return, low- income use restrictions on the project are secured for the full 40 -year mortgage term due in 2041. TELACU Senior Complex: This project is a 74 -unit apartment complex also owned by the East Los Angeles Community Union and financed by HUD's City of Baldwin Park V-6 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Public Housing Needs Section 202 program. Built in 1991, the low- income use restrictions on the project are secured for the full 40 -year mortgage term due in 2031.The 20 -year Section 8 contract will expire in November 2011. Villa Ramona: Built in 2004, this project offers 71 total units of affordable housing, of which half are reserved for senior and the remainder reserved for families. The developer, Thomas Safran, received tax credits from the State to assist with the construction costs. At the time of approval, the Community Development Commission approved $1,555,000 in assistance to the developer, of which $200,000 was utilized for off -site, surrounding neighborhood improvements. The $200,000 accrues a 0% interest and is due and payable in 2048. The remaining $1,355,000 matures in 2047 and accrues 3.49% simple interest per annum. 2. Cost of Preservation versus Replacement Over the next ten years (2008 - 2018), three federally assisted developments that provide 174 affordable units have expiring Section 8 contracts. These projects — Clark Terrace, Frazier Park, and Syracuse Park — are owned by for - profit corporations, and as such are considered at high risk of conversion. The likelihood of each project not continuing their Section 8 contracts would depend on whether the owners can command higher rents on their units in the open market than by continuing their Section 8 contract. Preservation of at -risk projects can be achieved in a variety of ways, with adequate funding availability. These include: • Transfer of ownership to nonprofit developers and housing organizations • Providing rental assistance to renters through other funding sources • Purchase affordability covenants • Refinance mortgage revenue bonds Alternatively, units that are converted to market rate may be replaced with new assisted multi- family units with specified affordability timeframes. Transfer of Ownership Transferring ownership of the affordable units to a nonprofit housing organization is a viable way to preserve affordable housing for the long term and increase the number of government resources available to the project. The feasibility of this option depends upon the willingness of the owner to sell, funding sources to actually buy the property, and the existence of a nonprofit organization with sufficient administrative capacity to manage the property. Additionally, projects in which all of the units are affordable, rather than just a portion, are more likely to be feasible because they can participate in ownership transfers more simply. City of Baldwin Park V - 7 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Public Housing Needs In Baldwin Park, the estimated market value for the 174 affordable units in the at -risk projects is evaluated in Table 5 -2. The current market value for all affordable at -risk units is estimated to be approximately $13 million. Table 5 -2 Rent Subsidies Required to Preserve At -Risk Rental Units 1.

Market value = Annual net project income * multiplication factor (ratio of the price of a real estate investment to its annual rental income) o. Multiplication factor .or a building in moderate condition = ! Rental Assistance State, local, or other funding sources can also be used to provide rental subsidies to maintain the affordability of at -risk projects. These subsidies can be structured to mirror the Section 8 program, whereby the subsidy covers the cost of the unit above what is determined to be affordable for the tenant's household income (including a utility allowance) up to the fair market value of the apartment. Given the mix of unit sizes of the at -risk developments, the total annual subsidv to maintain the 174 at -risk units is estimated at over $1,300,000 each year. Purchase Affordability Covenants Another option to preserve the affordability of at -risk projects is to provide an incentive package to the owners to maintain the projects as low- income housing. Incentives could include writing down the interest rate on the remaining loan balance and /or supplementing the Section 8 subsidy received to market levels. The feasibility of this option depends on whether the complexes require rehabilitation or are too highly leveraged. By providing lump - sum financial incentives or on -going subsidies in rents or reduced mortgage interest rates to the owner, the City can ensure that some or all of the units remain affordable.

Resources for Preservation Funding Sources The following summarizes financial resources available to the City for preservation of assisted, multi - family rental housing units. CDBG — The City estimates that it will receive approximately $7,400,000 during the next five years. CDBG funds are awarded to the City on a formula basis for housing activities. Eligible activities include acquisition, rehabilitation, economic development, and public services. HOME Investment Partnership Funds — The City estimates that it will receive approximately $2,700,000 in HOME funds during the next five years. HOME funding is a flexible grant program, which is awarded to Baldwin Park on a formula basis for housing activities. Eligible activities include acquisition, rehabilitation, and rental assistance. Redevelopment Agency Funding — Twenty percent of this local agency's funds are set aside for affordable housing activities governed by state law. Eligible activities include acquisition, rehabilitation, and new construction. T hese funds are administered through the City of Baldwin Park Redevelopment Agency. Public and Private Resources Available for !dousing and Community Development Activities The City may pursue additional funding from the following resources: Section 8 Rental Assistance Program — This program provides rental assistance payments to owners of private market rate units on behalf of very low - income tenants. Section 202 — Provides grant to non - profit developers for supportive housing for elderly. Eligible activities include acquisition, rehabilitation, new construction, and rental assistance. California Housing Finance Agency (CaIHFA) Multiple Rental Housing Programs — This state program provides below market rate financing to builders and developers of multiple - family and elderly rental housing. Tax exempt bonds provide below market mortgage money. Eligible activities include new construction, rehabilitation, and acquisition of properties with 20 -150 units. Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) — This state program provides tax credits to individuals and corporations that invest in low- income rental housing. Tax credits are sold to corporations and people with high tax liability and proceeds are used to create housing. Eligible activities include new construction, rehabilitation, and acquisition. California Community Reinvestment Corporation (CCRC) — This private, non- profit mortgage banking consortium provides long -term debt financing for City of Baldwin Park V - 9 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Public Housing Needs affordable multi - family rental housing. Eligible activities include new construction, rehabilitation, and acquisition. D. Public Housing Strategy The following public housing strategies will be implemented to address the preservation of public housing for very low- and low- income persons: 1. Monitor At -Risk Units Maintain contact with owners of at -risk units as the use restriction expiration date approaches. Communicate to the owner the importance of the units to the supply of affordable housing in Baldwin Park as well as its desire to preserve the units as affordable. Make every effort in using local incentives that can be offered to property owners to preserve any at -risk units. 2. Rental Subsidies If other methods to preserve the at -risk units fail, determine if it can assign financial resources to provide rental assistance to very low- income tenants to cover the difference between their current rents and market rents. 3. Support and Assistance to Local Nonprofits Focus on development and /or support of local nonprofit housing organizations. If owners of the i �. e at`risk housing fir ojects are interested in sailing to nonprofit organizations, work with the project owner(s) and nonprofit(s) to maximize the possibility of purchase. Use incentives, such as low -cost financing or payment of some of the costs associated with the purchase, to facilitate non - profit purchase of the project in order to preserve its affordability. 4. Housing Department Purchase Assist the Baldwin Park Housing Department in preserving affordable units by purchasing projects with at -risk units from the current owners. The Baldwin Park Housing Department gets credit toward state and federal housing requirements for affordable housing units within the redevelopment area. The Baldwin Park Housing Department and the City will evaluate the potential for purchase of the units. The City will also explore which local incentives can be offered to property owners and the Baldwin Park Housing Department to preserve the units.

Homeless and Special Needs Assessment Activities that provide service needs to individuals who are homeless or special needs including individuals with HIV /AIDS are addressed in this section of the Consolidated Plan. It should be noted that the homeless sub - populations tend to include those with substance abuse and dependency issues, those with serious mental illness, persons living with HIV /AIDS, women and other victims of domestic violence, emancipated youth, and veterans. The major causes of homelessness seen in Los Angeles County are poverty, lack of affordable housing, substance abuse, mental illness and the lack of needed services, low- paying jobs, domestic violence, unemployment, changes and cuts in domestic service programs, limited life skills, and prison release issues. The City is placing a high priority on Homeless and Special Needs populations that can contribute to the City's Anti - poverty Strategy. Table 6.1 provides the results of the Needs Assessment Survey that was distributed. Although the average rating was not listed as a high priority for the residents of Baldwin Park, other statistical data showed the need for these types of activities.

Profile of the Homeless Homelessness can be defined as the absence of a safe, decent, stable place to live. A person who has no such place to live stays wherever he or she can find space — an emergency shelter, an abandoned building, a car, an alley, or any other such place not meant for human habitation. When a low- income household suffers from a personal crisis, the result can be loss of their housing. Issues most often cited by homeless persons as the cause of homelessness include substance abuse, loss of employment, health issues and injuries. Substance abuse is the most commonly reported cause of homelessness. The Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority ( LAHSA) addresses homeless issues for the City of Baldwin Park. LAHSA conducts a point and time study every City of Baldwin Park VI- 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Homeless and Special Needs Assessment two years to gather demographic information on the homeless. The demographic survey referenced in this section was conducted March 2009 to May 2009. The demographic survey defines homelessness as follows, which is based on standard established by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) California Housing Finance Agency: ■ Any individual who lacks a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence or has a primary nighttime residence in any facility not designed for permanent living. • Families, individuals, and youth residing in emergency shelter or transitional housing. • Persons in drug and alcohol treatment who were homeless before they entered treatment or will be homeless after they leave. • Family members wait - listed for public housing that are currently residing in substandard or overcrowded housing. • Individuals discharged from correctional institutions within 30 days of the survey date that would meet the definition of being homeless. B. Homeless Definitions The definition of homelessness in the survey differs slightly from the definitions for HUD's homeless programs (the Emergency Shelter Grant, the Supportive Housing Program, Shelter Plus Care program, and the Section 8 Moderate Rehab for Single Room Occupancy Units program). All organizations receiving funds under these four programs must ensure that any homeless persons participating in any activities funded by these programs meet HUD's homeless definitions. HUD defines the term "homeless" according to the Stewart B. McKinney Act, 42 U.S.C. § 11301, et seq. (1994), which states that a person is considered homeless if the person lacks a fixed, regular, and adequate night -time residence, or a person who has a primary night time residence that is a supervised publicly or privately operated shelter designed to provide temporary living accommodations or an institution that provides a temporary residence for individuals intended to be institutionalized or a public or private place not designed for, or ordinarily used as, a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings (42 U.S.C. § 11302(a)).37 HUD considers persons living in overcrowded housing to be at high risk for homelessness, but not homeless, as in the definition in the survey. HUD also has a requirement that people leaving institutions (such as in- patient alcohol and drug treatment facilities) —where they have stayed more than 30 days —are only considered to be homeless if they have no family or friends where they can stay, have no resources to obtain housing, and did not have housing discharge planning. Please note that HUD does not consider people staying in such institutions for more than 30 days to be homeless just because they once were in a shelter or living on the City of Baldwin Park VI- 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Homeless and Special Needs Assessment streets. For such people to be considered homeless, the other criteria (support network, resources, planning) must also be absent and documented. Finally, HUD does not consider persons living in transitional housing to be homeless unless they leave within 30 days and previously came from the streets or emergency shelter. In this case, documentation must exist that the person came from the streets or emergency shelter. If a person has been in an institution for more than 30 days, they must meet the "network, resources, planning" test described above. C. Factors Contributing to Homelessness Based on the consultations, and survey results, the following issues surfaced as contributing factors: ■ Substance abuse. • De- institutionalization of persons with mental illness. • Lack of resources to address the needs of homeless or "near- homeless" persons with substance abuse or mental illness, including persons with dual diagnoses. • Unemployment /underemployment. • Lack of job skills among persons at high risk for homelessness. • Domestic violence. ■ A large gap between the number of affordable housing units and the number of households which need them. ■ Poverty and lack of personal resources. D. Local Homeless Population LAHSA provided the following information about the estimated homeless population in the San Gabriel Valley (Service Planning Area SPA3). = In 2005, there were an estimated 9,254 homeless in the San Gabriel Valley (Service Planning Area 3). This represents 11.0 percent of the 82,291 homeless population of Los Angeles County. In 2007, the number increased to 9,942 homeless in SPAS. In 2009, that number decreased substantially to 2,780. ■ A total of 94 percent of the 2,780 homeless in the San Gabriel Valley are comprised of single adults. City of Baldwin Park VI- 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Homeless and Special Needs Assessment ■ Homelessness is temporary for most. Roughly 18 percent can be described as chronically homeless. E. Homeless Needs To most efficiently address the needs of the homeless population, HUD has tasked local governments with developing a Continuum of Care. The Continuum of Care (CoC) is a planning model designed to provide assistance to homeless persons at every level of need and to move a client from homelessness to permanent housing. The Continuum addresses both the lack of housing affordable to the lowest income levels; it also addresses the underlying causes of homelessness such as substance abuse, domestic violence, and mental illness. The City of Baldwin Park is part of the county -wide Los Angeles Continuum of Care (LACoC). The LACoC is coordinated by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority ( LAHSA). LAHSA is a City- County Joint Powers Authority formed to address homelessness throughout Los Angeles County. LAHSA partners with other local government agencies and community -based nonprofit agencies to provide homeless services throughout Los Angeles County. Homeless needs are presented by the levels of service that form the Continuum: Prevention — Activities include income supports, rental assistance and advocacy. Eviction prevention and crisis intervention help at -risk households maintain their housing and side -step homelessness. Outreach and Assessment — Activities include walking the streets and other places not fit for human habitation and marketing available services to homeless persons reluctant to apply for services on their own. Once the client enters the system, the assessment process identifies a client's needs. Emergency Shelter — Offers a safe, secure, temporary place (up to 90 days) for homeless persons to reside while they prepare to move into more stable housing. Transitional Housing — Long term (up to 24 months) housing with supportive services that address the underlying causes of homelessness. Transitional housing programs enable people to successfully transition to and maintain permanent housing. Permanent and Permanent Supportive Housing — Permanent housing for most is affordable, market -rate housing. Permanent supportive housing enables persons with disabilities to live as independently as possible. Moving previously homeless persons into permanent housing is the primary objective of the Continuum. Supportive Services — Activities that help persons address the underlying causes of homelessness and move towards self- sufficiency and independent living. Services include substance abuse treatment, employment education and job readiness, budgeting workshops, parenting classes, and childcare. Services may be part of a housing program or independently. City of Baldwin Park VI- 4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Homeless and Spe, For many Baldwin Park residents, the first entry into the Continuum of Care is through an emergency shelter, where individuals and families obtain emergency housing and supportive services directed to getting people off the streets and into a safe environment. Typically, people stay in an emergency shelter for a short period. Usually during this time, other housing is arranged and the homeless person's immediate social service and medical needs are addressed. The next component of the Continuum is transitional housing, designed as short - term housing for up to 2 years, where persons move into a more stabilized housing arrangement than an emergency shelter. In transitional housing, persons receive substantial supportive services that are normally directed toward long -term solutions (i.e. employment, counseling, medical aftercare and life skills training), rather than the immediate needs and services addressed in the emergency shelter settings. The final component of the Continuum of Care is permanent housing, both with and without supportive services. The goal of the Continuum of Care system is to move people toward housing alternatives where they are able to reside permanently in safe and sanitary housing. This housing must be available at prices they can afford and in locations where they can receive the support services necessary for them to achieve maximum independence based on their abilities. The following tables were provided as part of the county's Continuum of Care. The inventory numbers in the tables below are based off the results of a survey sent to all homeless service providers who participate in the Los Angeles County Continuum of Care.

The priorities were last updated June 2009. 1. Reduce chronic homelessness by advocating for capital, operating and services funding to increase permanent supportive housing. Advocate for new programs and resources that move the most vulnerable individuals directly into housing. 2. Decrease family homelessness by advocating for programs and funding for homelessness prevention, rapid re- housing for homeless families, and mainstream benefits for low- income families. 3. Increase housing stability by advocating for new and ongoing funding for supportive services linked to housing and programs that better assure individuals and families stay in housing and do not cycle back into the more expensive emergency system of care. 4. Increase employment outcomes by advocating for resources to connect homeless individuals to educational and employment opportunities. 5. Prevent homelessness by advocating for funding and policy that preserves the net amount of affordable housing stock and reduces the number of people discharged into homelessness from public systems of care. 6. Increase resources for the Los Angeles Continuum of Care by advocating for an increased level of funding for Los Angeles area providers of housing and homeless services. City of Baldwin Park VI- 7 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Homeless and Special Needs Assessment F. Strategy HUD has established a goal to end chronic homeless within 10 years. The City of Baldwin Park works in partnership with the County of Los Angeles and LAHSA in support of the County's Continuum of Care to address homelessness on a regional basis. As part of this partnership, the City works in conjunction with the County of Los Angeles's Homeless Policy Council. In addition, the City is part of the Homeless Coalition meetings sponsored by LAHSA. The County's Continuum of Care system provides a community -based process that offers a comprehensive response to the different needs of homeless individuals and families. The four fundamental components of the system are as follows: Emergency shelter through a homeless shelter or a motel voucher and outreach and assessment will be provided to identify an individual's or family's needs and connect them to the appropriate facilities and services. 2. Supportive services such as job training, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, mental health services, special services to specific subpopulations will be provided. 3. Transitional housing for homeless families and individuals will be provided. 4. Finally, permanent housing and homelessness prevention will be available in the final phase. The four components of the Continuum of Care system will not be needed by all homeless persons. The Continuum of Care system will provide for the specific needs of all of the homeless populations in a coordinated and balanced effort. The City of Baldwin Park works with organizations that provide services that provide essential services within the four fundamental components within Baldwin Park, including motel vouchers, outreach services, transitional housing, and permanent housing. G. Other Special Needs 1. Substance Abuse Services The County is the primary provider of substance abuse services. The County provides a range of outpatient and residential treatment programs, including crisis intervention, assessment and evaluation; and counseling. Specialized programs provide services for pregnant and parenting women, persons who require methadone maintenance and detoxification, adolescents, persons who have been dually diagnosed with substance abuse and mental health problems, and individuals referred by the Los Angeles County Drug Court. The City is served by 15 drug and alcohol outpatient clinics located outside the City (El Monte and West Covina). In addition, there are multiple residential City of Baldwin Park VI- 8 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Homeless and Special Needs Assessment treatment facilities throughout the County. The City has assigned a high priority to this need category, based on existing programs and other funding sources. The City will consider support for a program that meets this need if it supplements the existing programs. 2. Services for the Disabled The Community Rehabilitation Services, with offices located in East Los Angeles and San Gabriel, is the primary provider of services to the disabled in the area. The Center receives funding from the State Department of Rehabilitation and is designated as a one of the twenty -nine Independent Living Centers (ILCs) in the state. These centers are dedicated to the ideal that communities become fully accessible and integrated so that all persons with disabilities can live, work, shop and play where they choose, without barriers. The Community Rehabilitation Services provides a variety of services including advocacy, counseling, and vocational services. Residents of Baldwin Park with developmental disabilities, such as mental disability. , cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and autism, are also served by the Regional Center of Los Angeles County. In addition, the State administers the In -Home Supportive Services Program that helps pay for services so that clients can remain safely at home as an alternative to expensive out -of -home care, such as nursing homes or board and care facilities. Types of services include housecleaning, meal preparation, and personal care services. Given the existing level of service and funding, the City has set this need category as a low funding priority, where it will consider supporting programs that complement existing services. 3. Accessibility Needs The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) recognizes and protects the civil rights of people with disabilities. Local jurisdictions (Title II) and Nonprofits (Title III), as well as other entities covered by the ADA, must ensure that the facilities they build or alter are accessible to people with disabilities. The highest degree of accessibility is required in new work, at the time when it is most cost - effective to incorporate accessible design features. If a covered entity alters an existing facility or part of a facility, the altered area must be accessible to and usable by people who have disabilities to the maximum extent feasible. Alterations must follow the ADA Standards for Accessible Design unless compliance is technically infeasible. Where the nature of an existing facility makes it virtually impossible to comply with all of the accessibility standards applicable to planned alterations, any altered features of the facility that can be made accessible must be made accessible. Program accessibility is a provision of the ADA and DOJ Title 11 regulations and applies to the existing facilities and programs of a jurisdiction. City of Baldwin Park VI- 9 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Homeless and Special Needs Assessment Persons who are physically disabled, including blindness and persons who suffer from brain impairments due to diseases or accidents, often face accessibility issues. The American Disabilities Act of 1991 provides comprehensive civil rights protection to persons with disabilities in the areas of public accommodation, employment, state and local government services, and telecommunications. The design, implementation, and maintenance of all park facilities must comply with ADA; persons of all abilities must have the opportunity to participate in recreation activities. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the City is charged to ensure that individuals with disabilities are not excluded from services, programs, and activities because existing buildings are inaccessible. ADA compliance is a concern of the Consolidated Plan as many persons with disabilities qualify as low and moderate income. The City is working to assure compliance with this important legislation and has assigned this category of need a high priority. 4. HIMIDS Centers & Serviced The dominant definition of HIV /AIDS has been developed by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in the United States. The CDC offers the following non- technical summary: AIDS stands for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. A human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected person receives a diagnosis of AIDS after developing one of the CDC defined AIDS indicator illnesses. An HIV - positive person who has not had any serious illnesses also can receive an AIDS diagnosis on the basis of certain blood tests (CD4+ counts). A positive HIV test result does not mean that a person has AIDS. A diagnosis of AIDS is made by a physician using certain clinical criteria (e.g., AIDS indicator illnesses). AIDS is a specific group of diseases or conditions which are indicative of severe immunosuppression related to infection with the HIV. There may be many different factors causing or contributing to the severe immunosuppression. Assessing the needs of Los Angeles County residents in relation to HIV and AIDS is an ongoing process. One might suggest that to the degree residents engage in HIV risk behaviors; there is a need for HIV prevention and related services. However, estimating the extent of need is challenging. The County of Los Angeles Department of Public Health lists the number of reported cases in the San Gabriel Valley as low. In 2008, the number of reported cases was 62 which represents 8 percent of the total for the Los Angeles County region. In Los Angeles County, the HIV Epidemiology Unit coordinates HIV /AIDS care, treatment, and support services and HIV /AIDS prevention services for the County of Los Angeles. The HIV Epidemiology Unit receives Federal and State HIV /AIDS grants and subcontracts the funds to Agency programs and City of Baldwin Park VI- 10 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Homeless and Special Needs Assessment community -based organizations. HIV Epidemiology Unit recommends HIV /AIDS- related policies to Health Care Agency administration. The HIV Planning and Coordination Unit is essential to the continued coordination of a public health response to the HIV /AIDS epidemic in Los Angeles County. It is the only entity, public or private, that is charged with this responsibility. The HIV Epidemiology Unit ensures that persons at high risk for contracting or transmitting HIV are targeted for HIV prevention education, and that persons living with HIV disease receive the medical and support services they need. The HIV Epidemiology Unit mission is to prevent the transmission of HIV, to encourage early intervention for those already infected, and to ensure that persons living with HIV have access to needed health care and services.3 Although the HIV Epidemiology Unit is responsible for the coordination of all HIV /AIDS care for the County, the City will work with agencies that provide referral or case management services in collaboration with the HIV Epidemiology Unit. The City has assigned this category of reed a 1-M priority. 3 Los Angeles County HIV Epidemiology Unit City of Baldwin Park VI- 11 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 >essment Intentionally Left Blank City of Baldwin Park VI- 12 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 R G ¥ i w w � � 4 « r � � � + # KIA �q �7® Non- Housing Community Development Needs Assessment V11. Non- Community Development Needs Assessment A. Introduction The Consolidated Plan regulations require an assessment of "non- housing community development needs." The City of Baldwin Park is committed to developing effective investment strategies to meet these needs using the City's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). This section is presented in the following order: ■ The City's methodology for determining priorities amongst the several competing community needs. ■ The three funding priority levels and their meaning. • An overview of the CDBG program and eligible uses of funds. • The City's community development needs, including infrastructure improvements, facilities, public services, accessibility improvements, and economic development needs; and. ■ Consolidated Plan Table 2B. This table summarizes all of the non - housing community needs and the City's 5 -year funding strategy for Consolidated Plan funds. B. Methodology The City used several data sources to assess its non - housing community needs. The 2000 U.S. Census data and the 2006 -2008 U.S. Census American Community Survey (ACS) were the primary source for the demographic data. Information on local economic conditions was obtained from County of Los Angeles, the State of California, and other governmental agencies. As required by federal regulations, the City consulted local Service providers a w obtain input. The .c first -1hanu knowledge of local community development professionals, including City staff and non - profit advocacy groups, made a significant contribution to the assessment. In addition, the City conducted a Community Needs Survey to gather public opinion. C. Funding Priority Levels Consolidated Plan funds are limited and are not sufficient to meet all of a community's reeds. Therefore, it is necessary that the City assigns relative priorities to each need, and use its limited resources to address the highest priorities. The City has assigned one of the following Priority levels to each possible use of funds: High Priority: A high priority indicates the City will use Consolidated Plan funds to implement programs and projects to address this need. Medium Priority: A medium priority indicates the City acknowledges a need exists but that the need level is relatively low compared to other needs and / or City of Baldwin Park VII - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non- Housing Community Development Needs Assessment' the need is being addressed by another program or funding source. The City will partner with other agencies and organizations to apply for additional funding. Low Priority: A low priority indicates that the City does not perceive a need for this type of service or program. D. The CDBG Program This section provides a brief overview of the CDBG Program as it is the primary funding source utilized by the City for non - housing community and economic development activities related to this Consolidated Plan. The CDBG statute calls for program funds to be used to develop viable communities through the provision of decent housing, a suitable living environment and expanded economic opportunities, primarily for persons of low and moderate income. To achieve these ends, the statute requires that activities funded through CDBG meet one of three national objectives: ■ Benefiting low- and moderate - income (LM) persons. ■ Preventing or eliminating slums or blight. ■ Meet urgent needs. 1. Activities Benefiting Low- And Moderate - Income Persons LMA - Area Benefit Activities: An activity with benefits available to all residents in a particular area where at least 51 percent of the residents are low- and moderate - income persons. Typical area benefits include Street Improvements; Water and Sewer Lines; Neighborhood Facilities; and Fagade Improvements in Neighborhood Commercial Districts. LMC - Limited Clientele Activities: An activity that provides benefits to a specific group of persons of which at least 51 percent of the beneficiaries are low - and moderate- income persons. Presumed Group: An activity that benefits clientele who are generally presumed to be principally low- and moderate - income persons. (Presumed groups: abused children, battered spouses, elderly persons, adults who are severely disabled, homeless persons, illiterate adults, persons with AIDS, and migrant farm workers). Activities that would be expected to qualify under the LMC Presumed Group subcategory include construction of a senior center, public services for the homeless, assistance to LM persons developing a micro - enterprise, Meals on Wheels for the elderly; services for battered and abused spouses or children; or Construction of job training facilities for severely disabled adults. Requiring Income Documentation: An activity requiring information on family size and income to document that at least 51 percent of the clientele are persons whose income does not exceed the low- and moderate - income limit. City of Baldwin Park VII - 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non - Housing Community Development Needs Assessment Programs Limiting Services to Low- and Moderate - Income: An activity that has income eligibility requirements which limit the activity exclusively to low- and moderate- income persons, or is of such a nature and location to limit services to primarily low- and moderate - income persons. LMJ - Job Creation or retention: An activity that directly creates or retains permanent, full -time equivalent jobs. Activities that could be expected to create or retain jobs include the construction by the grantee of a business incubator that is designed to offer both space and assistance to new, small businesses, to help them survive and perhaps even expand; loans to help finance the expansion of a plant or factory; financial assistance to a business, which has publicly announced its intention to close, and to help it update its machinery and equipment to remain open; and improvement of public infrastructure as needed by a company to comply with environmental laws to avoid closure. 2. Activities Preventing or Eliminating Slums or Blight The second of the CDBG national objectives has its roots in the Urban Renewal program, one of the major Federal programs that were terminated and replaced with the CDBG program upon its formation in 1974. Although the vast majority of persons who resided in the areas that qualified for assistance under the Urban Renewal program were LM, the principal focus of that program lay in eliminating major slums and other areas of blight within the community and preventing the return of blight to treated areas. Because of some concerns that the CDBG program might not allow the continuance of the type of projects that were funded under Urban Renewal, provision was made for this through the inclusion of the national objective concerning slums and blight. The subcategories under this national objective are: SBA — Slum or Blighted Area Activities: An activity serving to improve an area in which documented conditions of slums or blight exist. SBS - Slum or Blight on Spot Basis Activities: An activity outside of a slum and blighted area designed to address imminent safety hazards. 3. Activities Designed To Meet an Urgent Need To comply with the national objective of meeting community development needs having a particular urgency, an activity must be designed to alleviate existing conditions that the grantee certifies: ■ Pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community; ■ Are of recent origin or recently became urgent; ■ The grantee is unable to finance the activity on its own; and City of Baldwin Park VII - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non- Housing Community Development Needs Assessment ■ Other resources of funding are not available to carry out the activity. Example: a major catastrophe such as a flood or earthquake that threatens the community's residents with the spread of serious disease. The community's other resources may well be depleted and other Federal programs may not be sufficient to cover all the costs associated with this public health threat. E. Community Development Priority Needs The CDBG regulations categorize the types of programs and projects that are eligible for the funds. This assessment examines the following need categories: Community Improvements; Community Facilities; Community Services; Accessibility Needs; and Economic Development. Each need category is defined below. Economic Development Activities or improvements designed to support, increase, or stabilize business development, as well as to create or retain jobs, or expand the provision of goods and services (e.g., small business incubators, commercial and industrial development, loans to for- profit businesses, infrastructure improvements specific to expanding or creating business development). Community Improvements Community Improvements are public community development that benefit s gutters, sewer systems, street lighting, Community Facilities improvements that support existing or future an entire area or site (e.g., roads, curbs, bridges, etc.). Community Facilities includes the construction or rehabilitation of structures or facilities that house a public use. Facilities used for the general conduct of government are ineligible for CDBG assistance except under certain circumstances, such as the elimination of material or architectural barriers to ADA accessibility. Community Services Activities that provide services to individuals and /or households (e.g., job training, child care, graffiti removal, etc.). Accessibility Needs Non - housing activities or improvements that provide accessibility improvements for persons who are physically disabled. All improvements completed must meet the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. F. Infrastructure Improvements The Infrastructure category looks at all public improvements that support existing or future community development benefiting an entire area or a particular site (e.g., roads, curbs, gutters, sewer systems, street lighting, bridges, etc.). For the City, the City of Baldwin Park VII -4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non- Housing Community Development Needs Assessment community infrastructure improvements are a low priority for Consolidated Plan funds. With a few exceptions, infrastructure is typically installed at the same time as the development it serves. This is the case with the City's current infrastructure system. As with most development in the City, a good portion of the City's infrastructure is in need of repair or replacement. Table 7.1 provides the results of the Needs Assessment Survey that was distributed. Based on the Rating Averages, the residents of Baldwin Park indicated that all infrastructure improvements are considered to be a high priority need. Table 7 -1 Infrastructure Survey Results Infrastructure Answer Options No Need Low Need Medium Need High Need Rating Average Response Count Drainage Improvements 3 10 64 118 3.52 195 Water /Sewer Im r. 9 31 116 172 3.38 328 Street Improvements 7 31 87 201 3.48 326 Street Lighting 4 18 91 224 3.59 337 Sidewalk Improvements 7 30 87 189 3.46 313 Street Improvements The City's Public Works Department is responsible for the maintenance of the local street system, including all sidewalks, curbs and gutters, and the local in- street storm drain facilities. The Department is also responsible for street construction that is not otherwise completed by developers as part of new development or through improvement districts. Street improvements is considered a high priority need for the City. The City's streets have performed well over the years due to the City's constant maintenance efforts. Nonetheless, new overlay and hardscape repair are necessary to ensure many more years of service. Street improvements also include sidewalk improvements and curb cuts to meet ADA requirements. The City considers the construction of access ramps and walkways in the public right -of -way a high priority. 2. Flood Drainage Improvements Flooding in Baldwin Park has the potential to result in property damage. Rapid storm water and debris runoff can create flood conditions. In the past, flooding occurred in both commercial and residential areas. Many of these areas were recently corrected as a result of expensive public works projects. Nonetheless, areas of the City are prone to minor flooding, therefore drainage improvements are a high priority for the City. City of Baldwin Park VII - 5 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non- Housing Community Development' Needs Assessment 3. Water /Sewer Improvements Baldwin Park is served by three water companies (Valley County Water District, San Gabriel Valley Water Co., and Valley View Mutual Water Company. The three suppliers meet State and Federal standards for water quality and supply all of their water from groundwater wells. The City is located in a superfund site with areas of soil and groundwater being contaminated. Wells in the City have been found to contain high levels of Trichloroethatene and Perch loroethylene. The water purveyors have been able to continue to provide residents clean water by shutting down wells in contaminated areas. Underground sewer lines in Baldwin Park appear to be sufficient to carry sewage to County facilities. Although some sections are aging and need repair, these deficiencies are usually the result of normal use. The City is classifying this use as a medium priority need. G. Community Facilities A principal goal of the Consolidated Plan is to develop viable urban communities by developing a suitable living environment. A suitable living environment also includes community (public) facilities that add to the quality of life for a community's residents. In terms of the Consolidated Plan, public facilities include Park and Recreational Facilities, Community Centers, Health Care Facilities, as well as Fire Stations, Libraries, and Public Parking Facilities. Households with limited resources face great difficulty in meeting everyday needs and maintaining a safe, healthy community and suitable standard of living. The uses of funds to construct, expand, and renovate public service facilities contribute a great deal to the quality of life in these households. By making it possible for communities to provide health, recreational, and safety services to their residents, the City's program activities are an important tool for enhancing the livability of the City's lower income households and communities. The provision of these services eases the burden of low- and moderate - income households that must struggle to meet the needs of their families. Table 7.2 provides the results of the Needs Assessment Survey for the Community Facilities category.

Health Care Facilities The availability of public health care facilities is a necessity in jurisdictions of any size. Such agencies regulate health care standards throughout the jurisdiction, monitor trends in health indicators such as rates of infectious disease and injury, and provide needed medical care to poor households. There are several existing health care facilities operating within the City and adjacent cities. Kaiser Permanente Hospital is located within the City of Baldwin Park City limits. Other hospitals serving the City residents are located outside of the City limits. The Doctor's Hospital and Citrus Valley Medical Center — Queen of the Valley are located in West Covina. As noted above, there are a number of private health care providers servicing the residents of Baldwin Park. The City considers this category a medium priority relative to other community needs. 2. Fire Station and Equipment The City of Baldwin Park contracts with the Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACFD) for its fire prevention services. LACED operates one fire station within the City limits (Fire Station No. 29). Funding for fire stations and equipment comes primarily from property taxes. The Needs Assessment Survey results indicate that the need is a high need (rating of 3.64). However the LACFD continues to monitor the needs of the community to assure proper coverage for the City. In addition, the City counts on services from Los Angeles County fire stations located in adjacent Cities to address additional needs. Given this data and the alternative funding sources for the development of fire stations, the City has assigned this category of need a low priority. City of Baldwin Park VII - 7 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non- Housing Community Development Needs Assessment 3. Youth Centers Baldwin Park has a large youth population. According to the 2000 Census, 38.4 percent of the City's population was under age 19, representing a significant user group for dedicated youth facilities. The Needs Assessment Survey results indicate that the need is a high need (rating of 3.57). The City has a specific facility set aside for the exclusive use of youth at the Baldwin Park Teen Center and Skate Park. In addition, the majority of the general use recreation facilities host a wide variety of youth activities. The City is continually increasing the number of community facilities that can be used by the City youth. The City considers this to be a medium priority relative to other community needs. 4. Libraries The City of Baldwin Park is serviced by the Los Angeles County Public Library system. The Baldwin Park Library provides basic library facilities. Some of the services they provide to meet the information needs of specific target audiences include: Bookmobiles Books -by -mail — for residents of rural areas and to the homebound Audio Books -On -Tape (for a rental fee) Internet - public access to Internet information resources Literacy Centers The Needs Assessment Survey results indicate that the need is a medium need (rating of 3.66). With access to all of the County Library System, the City considers this need to be a low priority relative to other community needs. 5. Child Care Centers There are approximately 6,150 children under the age of five in the City, according to the 2006 -2008 ACS. This accounts for 8.0 percent of the total population. To meet the needs of families with children, the City of Baldwin Park has 22 licensed child care facilities in the City. Overall, the 22 childcare centers serve 911 infants, toddlers and pre - schoolers. The City has given a medium priority for this category. The key subsidized childcare services are described below. a. Head Start Preschools: These preschools provide child development services to preschool children ages 3 -5 and assistance for families. For the children, the schools provide hot meals, along with health and social and psychological services. Referral services for housing and job information are provided for the parents. City of Baldwin Park VII - 8 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non- Housing Community Development Needs Assessment b. Avenues for Independence (GAIN) Program: This program subsidizes childcare for people who meet the low- income eligibility and who are either working or going to school. The intent of this program is to help parents achieve greater financial independence by maintaining employment or acquiring the job skills to secure employment. 6. Senior Centers The City has assigned this category a low priority because the existing facility currently meets the community needs. Baldwin Park's senior population as of the 2006 -2008 ACS data surpassed 6,000 residents and accounts for approximately 8.4 percent of the population. As the senior population grows and the average lifespan increases, the need for additional capacity and upgrades to the existing facilities will grow. Baldwin Park is home to the Julia McNeill Senior Center. The center offers a variety of programs for the City's elder population, including counseling, legal aid, caregiver support, support groups, meal service, and recreational activities. The City ensures that the facilities are accessible through the Baldwin Park Dial -A -Ride Program. The Dial -A -Ride program provides a low -cost, door -to- door, wheelchair accessible transportation service to qualified residents who are senior citizens and persons with disabilities. The program encourages independence, personal competency and community involvement among seniors. The Needs Assessment Survey results indicate that the need is a low need (rating of 3.24). With the existing facility, the City considers this to be a low priority relative to other community needs. 7. Park and Recreational Facilities Parks and recreational facilities serve an important role in a community. They provide opportunities for resident interaction, and improve the overall aesthetic of a neighborhood. Funds can be used to acquire land, build or improve playgrounds or buildings used primarily for recreation, and develop open spaces that will serve low to moderate - income areas. The City of Baldwin Park has a number of parks, open spaces, and recreational areas. There are six (6) community parks providing a total of 27 acres of open space and six (6) community facilities throughout the City. In addition, the City has a joint use agreement with the school district that provides an additional 17 joint use park/recreational facilities at elementary and high schools. Baldwin Park's recreational areas support a wide variety of family sports activities. There is an extensive network of soccer, baseball, and basketball fields /courts. The City owns and operates four recreational facilities: the Teri G. Muse Family Service center, the Esther Snyder Community Center, the Julia McNeill Senior Center, and the Baldwin Park Teen Center and Skate Park. The City has a skate park facility located at the Baldwin Park Teen Center. The City has assigned this category a low priority need. City of Baldwin Park VII - 9 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non- Housing Community Development Needs Assessment 8. Community Centers Community service centers may provide recreational space and activities, but also provide neighborhood services such as computer labs, adult education programs, family services, and general information about public services available throughout the community. Whether or not recreational opportunities are provided by a given community service center, all centers provide multiple public services to the neighborhood and community where they are located. The City of Baldwin Park has the Esther Snyder Community Center. This facility offers space for a variety of programs for all age groups and genders and available for public use. With the development of the community center, the City has assigned this category a low priority need. H. Community Services The City is placing a high nrinriity on community services that can contribute to the City's Anti - poverty Strategy. Specifically, these services are: senior activities youth activities, and child care services. Senior Services and Youth Services are further discussed under Senior Center and Youth Center facilities. Table 7.3 provides the results of the Needs Assessment Survey for Community Services. Table 7 -3 Communitv Services Survev Results Community Services Answer Options No Need Low Need Medium Need High Need Rating Average Response Count Senior Activities 4 35 102 150 3.37 291 Youth Services 2 23 81 224 3.60 330 Child Care Services 5 22 61 203 1 3.59 291 Transportation Services 7 21 64 184 3.54 276 Anti -Crime Program 4 25 59 241 3.63 329 Health Services 2 21 77 229 3.62 329 Mental Health Services 8 46 90 184 3.37 328 Legal Services 11 47 80 188 3.37 326 1. Health Services As health care costs rise and an increasing number of residents go without health insurance, this category is an increasing concern. Health services that can be found in the City include, but are not limited to Referral Opportunities through the Family Service Center; Women's Cancer Screenings through the YWCA and Pacific Coast Medical Services; GEMS Program; Child Health and Disability Prevention Program; and Project BRIDGE Resource Directory. The City has assigned a medium priority to health services and will continue to look to partner with local non - profit agencies and local health care providers to meet this need. City of Baldwin Park VII - 10 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non- Housing Community Development Needs Assessment This category also includes mental health services. The county currently provides a range of services including emergency crisis intervention, acute and long -term hospitalization, short -term outpatient services and longer -term rehabilitative and recovery outpatient mental health services. Outpatient programs emphasize individual needs and strengths while developing rehabilitation and recovery goals chosen by the consumer. Supportive services are provided to those able to live independently as well as to those in need of shelter. Under this (2010 -2014) Consolidated Plan process, the residents have given Health Services an average rating of 3.62 with Mental Health Services average rating of 3.37. As a result, the City has assigned a low level priority. 2. Youth Services Due to the large number of youth in the City, the need for youth services is very high. The City, through the Department of Recreation and Community Services and other public and nonprofit agencies, provide a wide range of services for the youth of the City. These programs include but are not limited to Kids Care Fair, USDA Free Summer Lunch Program, Sports Scholarship Program, Educational Enhancement Program, Aquatics Program, Teen Center and Skate Park, After School Program, and Summer Learning Program. The Needs Assessment survey indicated that the residents believe this to be a high priority need. The City also feels the needs of at -risk youth are a high priority and will support programs that meet these needs. 3. Child Care in addition to services provided directly to young people, childcare is a necessary service for single parent families and in families where both parents work. An increasing number of families must have both adults working full time ;obs in order to maintain self -suf icienrv_ According to the C ounty Department of Health Services, 65 percent of women with children under the age compared to 39 percent in 1975. There are numerous licensed childcare facilities in Baldwin Park, however, the cost of these facilities is often unaffordable to the families who most need it. According to a set of 2008 community indicators published by Los Angeles County, childcare costs increased three times as fast as the median family income. Affordable childcare is an essential component to a low - income working families ability to rise out of poverty. The City has placed a high priority on meeting the community's childcare needs as part of the Anti - poverty Strategy. 4. Senior Services Senior citizens represent one of the fastest growing segments of American society. At the same time, advances in health technology have made it possible City of Baldwin Park VII - 11 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non- Housing Community Development Needs Assessment for elderly Americans to live longer lives and to enjoy independent lifestyles. These two trends have combined to place increased demand on a range of elderly services that are necessary to maintain a suitable quality of life. The City is fortunate to have a senior center that provides a full range of activities for City residents. However, some elderly residents on fixed incomes cannot afford the fees charged for services and others are not able to easily access the centers due to mobility impairments. The City places a high priority on supportive senior services that help maintain independence. Services such as Meals on Wheels allow seniors to remain in their homes when they may otherwise be institutionalized at a high cost to both the seniors and the public. 5. Transportation Services The Foothill Transit Agency and the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) provide local- serving and regional bus lines for the residents of Baldwin Park. To ensure that bus transit services continue to meet the transportation needs of the residents, the City is committed to maintaining a local bus system and the Dial -A -Ride. These include the Baldwin Park Teal and Pumpkin Lines. The Baldwin Park train station is located one block from City hall. The train station provides an important stop for the Metrolink (San Bernardino) commuter line. Even with the multiple services available to the residents, the Needs Assessment Survey results (average rating of 3.54). The City has assigned this category of need a low priority. 5. Crime Preventlon Crime against persons or property is of significant concern in the City of Baldwin Park. Even the perception of the risk of crime can lead to a decline in the livability of residential neighborhoods, and suppress economic viability in commercial areas. Consequently, crime prevention, awareness, and intervention efforts are important steps toward building a strong community and assisting in arresting slum and blight. The City operates its own Police Department. The department maintains staff and equipment necessary to provide patrol services, crime prevention and public information about safety issues. The City of Baldwin Pak is committed to the safety of its residents. The Police Department implements a number of programs including the Foot and Bike Patrol; Baldwin Park Explorers Program; Neighborhood and Business Watch Programs; Volunteer and Internship Program; Chaplain Program; PRIDE Platoon and LA Impact Program.. Based on the need for crime prevention programs and the lack of funding sources, the City has assigned this category of need a high priority relative to other community needs. City of Baldwin Park VII - 12 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Non- Housing Community Development Needs Assessment Neighborhood Services The Neighborhood Services category looks at all neighborhood improvements that benefit a local area (e.g., tree planting, trash debris removal, parking facilities, graffiti removal, and code enforcement) or site. For the City, the neighborhood improvements are a low priority for Consolidated Plan funds. The City is fortunate that these local services are being addressed through assessment districts or other funding sources.

Providing a combination of technical assistance (business start -up, general business, marketing, procurement, workforce recruitment, governmental matters, import /export, etc.), capital access (loans and equity investments for working capital, inventory, fixed assets) and tax incentives (federal, state and local), are all essential ingredients in assisting new business start -ups and helping existing businesses to grow, expand and hire new employees. The majority of the City's economic development programs are coordinated through the Baldwin Park Economic Development Division.

Barriers to Affordable Housing A. What is a Barrier to Affordable Housing? As defined by the Consolidated Plan regulations, a barrier to affordable housing is a public policy, such as land use controls, property taxes, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limits, and other policies. Since cost reduction opportunities in housing can also be found in areas other than public policy, the Housing Department chose to look at all potential barriers. To distinguish a barrier to affordable housing from an impediment to fair housing choice, is to think of a barrier as not unlawful necessarily (i.e., the lack of affordable housing stock, in and of itself, is a barrier to affordable housing). B. Analysis of Barriers The Housing Department is committed to helping reduce barriers to affordable housing. Despite Baldwin Parks growing housing demands, the local market is not responding to the needs of lower- income households to the degree needed. The inventory of affordable housing continues to deteriorate, while the production rate of new affordable housing units cannot keep up with demand. As the lead agency for housing and community development in Baldwin Park, the Housing Department is making a significant effort to identify housing problems and reshape its policies and programs for the coming years. The Housing Department sponsored community meetings, distributed needs surveys, and conducted individual interviews as part of Consolidated Plan development (described in the Consolidated Plan Development section). Participants in these meetings identified several issues that are barriers to affordable housing. Comments from these sources reveal a variety of barriers to affordable housing in Baldwin Park. The two primary barriers to accessing affordable housing are: Housing Affordability Lack of affordable housing. Other possible barriers may include: • Zoning and Land Use Controls. • Citizen opposition (the "Not In My Back Yard," or NIMBY syndrome). • Lack of knowledge of available programs and resources. • Resource fragmentation and scarcity. • Lack of supportive services. • Approval process and fees. • Environmental Review • Building codes and standards. City of Baldwin Park VIII - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Barriers to Affordable Housing In addition, some families and individuals face barriers to fair housing choice. For more information on impediments to fair housing choice, consult the City's 2010- 2014 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice. 1. Primary Barrier: Housing Affordability Since housing continues to become scarcer, many low - income households are forced to pay more than they can afford for a home, or live in overcrowded or less- than - desired conditions. As reported in the housing needs section, the U.S. Census Bureau 2006 -2008 American Community Survey estimates that 5,041 (57.4 percent) of owner households and 3,751 (60.1 percent) of the renter households in Baldwin Park are experiencing a cost burden. What is a Housing Cost Burden? When a household pays more than 30 percent of its income on housing and utilities, HUD considers the household to be experiencing a cost burden. %Arhen a household pays more than 50 percent of its income on housing, the household experiences a severe cost burden. The City collects housing cost burden data from all households receiving HUD - funded program assistance form a project qualified as meeting the Low- and Moderate- Income Housing (LMH) National Objective. 2. Primary Barrier: Lack of Affordable Housing The most important land use planning issue for the City is the lack of available land —not only for homes, but also for businesses, industry, and public uses. The lack of availability of land for housing results in the lack of land to develop new affordable housing. Because of this condition, affordable housing must be created by converting existing housing into affordable housing or acquiring underutilized parcels and increasing the density of such parcels. n+6r%r De%ecEihln Rnrriarc V• VY�IM� � VVV.N.V ✓an...v.v a. Zoning and Land Use Controls: Local zoning is the primary system used by the City to maintain control over the pattern of land development within its borders. Zoning regulations allocate parcels of land to different classifications with certain uses being permitted, while others are proscribed. Zoning regulations often restrict density and limit housing types in locations that might otherwise be suitable for affordable housing. Such restrictions therefore exclude lower income household from many neighborhoods. Zoning regulations prescribing minimum lot sizes, minimum setbacks, and other requirements may necessitate the need for larger lots, which drive up the cost of housing making it less affordable. In addition, zoning is occasionally used to "zone out" mobile /manufactured homes, which are an important source of affordable housing for many low- and moderate - income citizens in Baldwin Park. City of Baldwin Park VIII - 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Barriers to Affordable Housing Zoning regulations may also prohibit the development of ancillary dwelling units, even if such units do not impose a significant cost on other community residents. Ancillary dwelling units — sometimes called "in -law apartments" or "grandparent apartments" —are an important tool to increase the supply of affordable housing for moderate - income households, particularly single people who require minimal space. Zoning practices often have the intended or unintended effect of increasing housing costs, and effectively excluding prospective moderate - income households from locating affordable housing for purchase or rent. Separation of residential from non - residential uses exacerbates traffic problems since most employees must then drive to work. Higher- income residents may bid up the price or rent of housing units that are near places of employment thereby forcing lower- income residents to live farther from their places of employment or other amenities. T he average minimum time required to get a zoning variance or change is - -- four to six weeks, which often hampers redevelopment and rehabilitation efforts. The City's entitlement fees for a single family home are estimated at $14,836 with reduced fees for affordable housing units at $7,874. For multi- family developments, the estimated fees are $13,616 per unit with the reduced fee for affordable units at $5,654.' For low- and moderate income homeowners with available lot space to develop additional housing capacity, this additional cost precludes the provision of additional new, code - compliant housing units and off - street covered parking. b. Lack of Knowledge of Available Programs and Resources: A lack of knowledge among organizations and lower income clients arose as a common theme in meetings and interviews. c. Resource Fragmentation and Scarcity: To finance affordable housing, sponsors must now bundle together many Federal, State, City, and private p r r � nncrnfinn ci fincidiec, and in x /PCtminnt my n rogr ams pi Vdi n napi�al fun s, incentives. Funding fragmentation is administratively onerous, often resulting in conflicting program requirements that can paralyze affordable housing projects. Even with the availability of a variety of programs, affordable housing resources remain scarce. Like most jurisdictions, the City still has insufficient resources to fully address the need for affordable rental and homeownership housing. The need for increased revenue for housing on the Federal, State, and local levels competes with other public priorities, such as education, transportation, health, and welfare. d. Lack of Financial Resources: Housing Acquisition Finance Requirements: Mortgage down payment requirements are a significant barrier to the purchase of otherwise affordable housing by moderate - income households. Moderate - income households may have little difficulty in making monthly City of Baldwin Park 2008 -2014 Housing Element City of Baldwin Park VIII - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Barriers to Affordable Housing mortgage payments provided that household incomes increase over time, thus increasing self- sufficiency and creating real wage growth. However, in this period of economic recession or stagnation, households have even more difficulty accumulating the total amount required for the up -front down payment on a home purchase and /or obtaining a loan due to recent tightening of underwriting criteria used by lenders since the collapse of the housing market and the beginning of the recent economic recession. Rental security deposits may also constitute a significant barrier to the acquisition of otherwise affordable rental housing by low- and moderate - income households, although security deposits are generally small compared with mortgage down payment requirements. e. Environmental Review: Environmental review procedures also pose barriers to affordable housing. These barriers are both intended and unintended. Environmental regulations provide positive public benefits to all citizens and communities because they serve to protect the environment from the adverse affects of new development or change -in -use and they conversely protect projects from the adverse affects of the surrounding environment. However, the type and extent of environmental reviews often prolongs the affordable housing development process; thereby increasing costs, creating confusion, reducing affordability and imposing undue administrative burdens. Approval Process and Fees: Obtaining government approvals for affordable housing projects requires ever - increasing amounts of time and money. The length of time involved in the permit approval process itself can be a barrier to affordable housing. The 2008 -2014 Housing Element cites the approximate time for entitlements on an average project to be 5- 1/2 months. During this period, the owner or developer must pay the explicit costs of funds borrowed to finance the development and staff retained to design it, as well as the implicit cost of revenues foregone as a result of the approval process delay. Often such delays are due to the needs for submission revisions in accordance with permit requirements. However, whether the delays are due to government officials or developers, they still reduce the financial return on the development of affordable housing. Approval fees also may constitute a significant barrier to the development of affordable housing depending on the type, size, and location of the proposed development. The fees and charges necessary for approval of a residential development include subdivision fees, building and other permit fees, and charges for access to sewers and other public infrastructure, among others. Prospective developers may be required to prepare market analyses, environmental or economic impact analyses, or infrastructure requirements analyses and engineering plans to accompany particular development proposals. In many cases, the aggregate cost of these fees, charges, and required submissions can amount to a significant share of the total cost of City of Baldwin Park VIII - 4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Barriers to Affordable Housing a residential development. These costs are passed on to the homebuyers making the homes less affordable for low- and moderate - income families. Lack of Supportive Services: Additionally, many low- income households and most special needs populations require access to a variety of supportive services. A common theme reported in interviews was insufficient access to public transportation that connects housing to job centers and community resources. In most areas of the City, affordable housing is not located near public transportation routes, which are scarce. The lack of sufficient public transportation is a significant barrier to self - sufficiency in many cases. C. Strategy and Objectives The primary barrier to affordable housing in Baldwin Park —as cited through the citizen participation and consultation process —is the lack of affordable rental and homeownership units. Many low- and moderate - income persons and households, especially the very low- income households, the homeless, the physically and mentally disabled, the frail elderly, and other persons with special needs, have problems finding and obtaining affordable housing. Therefore, the City's primary strategies for helping reduce barriers to affordable housing are the same as its strategies to meet affordable housing needs: • Preserve existing rental and owner - occupied housing resources. • Expand affordable rental housing opportunities, particularly for low- income persons. • increase affordable homeownership opportunities, particularly for low- and moderate - income persons. • In accordance with density, building and environmental standards increase the supply of affordable housing units through new construction.

Impediments to Fair Housing A. Introduction Consolidated Plan requirements include completing an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice. As part of a mandate to affirmatively further fair housing, Baldwin Park must take appropriate actions to overcome the effects of the impediments to fair housing choice it identifies in its analysis. As the lead agency for the City of Baldwin Park 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan, the Housing Department is committed to working with the public, private, and nonprofit sectors in Baldwin Park to ensure fair housing choice for all residents. This commitment includes incorporating fair housing needs and strategies into the Consolidated Plan. This section on Fair Housing includes the following: ■ Overview of fair housing, with background on the Fair Housing Act. • Impediments to Fair Housing Choice in Baldwin Park, as identified in the City's Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI). • A strategy for the City of Baldwin Park to affirmatively further fair housing by addressing current impediments. B. Overview of Fair Housing 1. What is Fair Housing Choice? The ability of persons, regardless of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, national origin, of similar income levels to have available to them the same housing choices. Consolidated Plan requirements include completing an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice. As part of a mandate to affirmatively further fair housing, the City of Baldwin Park must take appropriate actions to overcome the effects of the impediments to fair housing choice it identifies in its analysis. 2. What is an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing? HUD requires each CDBG recipient to complete an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice, also known as an Al. The analysis includes examining barriers to fair housing choice. Many communities develop this analysis and planned actions as part of a broader fair housing strategy or fair housing plan. City of Baldwin Park IX - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 IImpediments to Fair Housing 3. What is an Impediment to Fair Housing Choice? Housing choice is impeded when actions, omissions, or decisions are taken that restrict a person's choice of housing because of his /her characteristics as listed above. It is also impeded when certain residential dwellings are not made available to a person because of his /her characteristics as listed above. C. Fair Housing in Context Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 (and a subsequent Amendment in 1988) made it unlawful to discriminate in any aspect related to the sale, rental, or financing of dwellings (or in the provision of brokerage services or facilities) in connection with the sale or rental of a dwelling because of: • Race. • Sex • Color • National origin • Religion 1. Application of the Fair Housing Act • Persons with handicaps. • Families with children Application of the Fair Housing Act is not limited to situations involving Federal funds. It provides for fair housing throughout the United States in the private and public sectors. When Congress first passed the Housing and Community Development Act in 1974, HUD instructed recipients of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to "affirmatively further fair housing." However, it did not provide specific guidance for implementing programs to affirmatively further fair housing. Therefore, vDBG recipients engaged In a variety of - Nri nvynri agmi i o an d n�.. rnlarfe �........ Some CDBG recipients funded nonprofit groups to provide direct assistance to victims of housing discrimination. Others funded educational programs for consumers and industry about their rights and responsibilities under Federal, State, or local fair housing laws. Other CDBG recipients took actions such as holding special events during the National Fair Housing Month in April each year. Other CDBG recipients did nothing specific to affirmatively further fair housing. 2. Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice To help remedy this situation, when HUD published the Consolidated Plan Final Rule in 1995, it required each CDBG recipient to complete an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing. The Al is part of the mandate to affirmatively further fair housing. This mandate also includes planning and taking annual actions to overcome the effects of any identified impediments. A jurisdiction must also maintain records reflecting the Al and the actions it takes to address fair housing impediments. City of Baldwin Park IX - 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Impediments to Fair Housing The City is updating its Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice concurrently with the Consolidated Plan. This study evaluated the nature and extent of housing segregation and discrimination in the City. It serves as a framework for the City's fair housing planning as part of its Consolidated Plan implementation. D. Discrimination Discrimination in the sale or rental of housing has diminished significantly since the 1960s. Discrimination affecting home sales appears to occur most commonly when potential buyers are hoping for approval of their mortgage application by the lender. Discrimination in apartment rentals is no longer simply a matter of white landlords refusing to rent to minority tenants. Members of many ethnic groups, often immigrants, own or manage apartment complexes, and their own ethnic biases clearly affect their treatment of prospective tenants. Populations that are particularly impacted by discrimination and face higher levels of fair housing violations are large families with children, female- headed families, formerly homeless persons, disabled persons and persons with HIV /AIDS. Many of these groups face housing restrictions imposed by property owners /managers working under misperceptions or stigmas about these population groups. Many families with children often face housing discrimination by landlords who fear that children will cause property damage or have cultural issues with children of opposite sex sharing a bedroom. Female- headed families may be discriminated against in the rental housing market because some landlords are concerned about the ability of these households to make regular rent payments. Formerly homeless persons may encounter fair housing issues when landlords refuse to rent to them based on the perception that homeless persons are more economically, and sometimes mentally, unstable. Persons with disabilities may face discrimination in the housing market because of the need for wheelchairs, home modifications to improve accessibility, or be refused housing based on the stigma of mental disability. Many persons living with HIV /AIDS face illegal eviction from their homes when their illness is exposed. Discriminatory advertising is also issue that inhibits fair housing choice. When looking for a home to purchase or rent, some of the main sources of information are the classified advertisements in local newspapers, word of mouth, signs, apartment guides, the Internet, and apartment brokers. The language in these types of advertisements has become an issue in that it can contain discriminatory references such as the use of words describing conditions like "adults preferred," "perfect for empty nesters," or "ideal for married couples without kids." Further, if advertisements are limited to one language it can be targeted to specific ethnic groups, excluding others, such as when "for rent" and "for sale" signs and advertisements for housing are in Spanish or languages other than English. This can exclude English speaking -only residents and also make certain groups feel unwelcome. City of Baldwin Park IX - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Impediments to Fair Housing Discrimination can also play a role when deciding where to live. Realtors can act unintentionally by steering potential buyers or renters to particular neighborhoods by encouraging the client to look into certain areas; others may choose not to show clients all of the choices available. Further, agents may also discriminate by their choices in whom they agree to represent, whom they turn away, and the comments they make about their clients. Instances of steering by realtors to certain neighborhoods occur in many communities. The homeownership market lends itself to potential increases in discrimination by the very nature of stakeholders involved. While the City understands that limited housing is not a fair housing issue, it also understands that this condition can exacerbate fair housing problems as housing becomes increasingly scarce and competition for housing increases. When the housing market is tight, with high demand, low vacancies, and rising costs, the potential for discriminatory housing practices also increases. E. Summary of Issues and Key Findings The analysis entitled 2090 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice for the City of Baldwin Park was completed and is available for review by the public. It assesses the progress to impediments to fair housing choice for the prior document (2003 Al), housing segregation in the private market; housing and lending discrimination based on race, national origin, familial status, and disability; racial attitude; housing segregation and discrimination in public and subsidized housing; and public policies affecting fair housing choice. The 2003 City of Baldwin Park Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice identified three (3) impediments, of which two (2) are repeated in this 2010 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice, as follows: Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities. The primary incidence of complaints to the Housing Rights Center (HRC) continues to be on the basis of physical or mental disability. Fifty -six percent (56 %) of all complaints in Baldwin Park over the period studied were based on mental tai or physical disabilitys=° -a statistic that mirrors numerous other Cities in Southern California. This reveals a fundamental lack of understanding and sensitivity to the fair housing rights of the disabled amongst stakeholders in the housing industry. Disabled persons are experiencing difficulties when requesting reasonable accommodations or modifications. In particular, persons with cognitive disabilities experience significantly more problems with these accommodations. 2. Lending Patterns. Overall, the analysis of lending patterns revealed that loan approval rates are generally higher for Asians and Whites than for Hispanics in the City of Baldwin Park. Current HMDA data from 2008 shows that Hispanic households continue to experience higher loan denial rates than Asians and Whites when purchasing a home. City of Baldwin Park IX - 4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Impediments to Fair Housing Table 9 -1 Lendinq Patterns by Race Race /Ethnicity Home Purchase Loan Approval Rate Refinance Approval Rate Asian 77.2 58.8 White 74.2 56.3 African American 100 52.94 Hispanic 64.83 48.3 All Groups (Overall) 70.4 51.6 Source: HMDA Database, 2009. The data analyzed indicates that across all racial /ethnic groups, loan approval rates increase with corresponding increases in the income of the applicants; however, Hispanic applicants had lower loan approval rates in comparison to other similarly- situated racial /ethnic groups with respect to income. These lower home purchase and refinance loan approval rates could be due to significant factors considered in the loan application review process, such as credit, employment history, debt - income ratio, etc. To help improve the lending outcomes of Hispanics, the City will work with its fair housing service provider to improve its homeownership education workshops in areas with high concentrations of minorities (See Map I in Chapter II, Community Profile). This 2010 -2014 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice identifies two (2) additional impediments, as follows: 3. Lack of Awareness of Fair Housing Laws. Despite significant and persistent outreach and educational efforts by the Housing Rights Center, a general lack of knowledge of fair housing rights and responsibilities continues to exist in the City. Although the incidence of fair housing discrimination complaints in Baldwin Park has trended downward over the three -year period ending June 30, 2009, HRC statistics show that over 2/3 of all cases are successfully counseled. This indicates that landlords and tenants can generally resolve their differences when the HRC, as a neutral convener, provides clarifying information to resolve actual or perceived discrimination that is against the law. 4. Lack of Large Family Housing Opportunities. The availability of large family housing (3+ bedrooms) is lacking in the City of Baldwin Park. According to the U.S. Census, large family units account for only 37 percent of the available housing stock in the City (See table 4 -2 in Chapter ii). According to reports from City housing staff, the City regularly receives calls from residents inquiring about the lack of housing opportunities for large families — particularly those with children. According to HRC, discrimination complaints on the basis of familial status are the second leading cause of resident complaints accounting for 21 percent of all cases over the three -year period studied that ended June 30, 2009.

Recommendations to Address Impediments to Fair Housing Choice This Al identifies common problems and barriers to fair housing in Baldwin Park. This section builds upon the previous analysis, outlines conclusions, and provides recommendations for the City to address impediments to the fair housing identified earlier. These recommendations will serve as the basis for the City to develop an action plan to eliminate identified Impediments. The recommendations listed in Table VI -1 on the following page are designated for action by the City, and other service agencies that assist Baldwin Park residents. Table 9 -2 Fair Weuminn PAt-nmmPnr1;fflnnS impediments: Recommendations Lead Agency Timeframe It is recommended that HRC expand its existing fair housing workshops in the City to specifically address the disabled and this population's particular housing needs and rights. These workshops will inform landlords and housing industry stakeholders about Discrimination reasonable accommodations and modifications. Housing Rights 1, against Center; Housing 6/30/11 Persons With The City of Baldwin Park will provide funds to Department Disabilities HRC for expanded testing, (a minimum of 15 tests) in Baldwin Park to address issues of possible discrimination based on disability to expand the base of knowledge surrounding specific types of housing discrimination against the mentally and physically disabled. It is recommended that the City continue to monitor lending patterns on an annual basis to observe changes in lending activity in an effort to adjust its fair housing approach and its own homebuyer program. Housing Rights 2• Lending Patterns In conjunction with the City fair housing Center; Housing 7/1/11 provider, it is recommended that the City Department De P expand homebuyer workshops in Baldwin Park and target marketing efforts to under- represented race and ethnic groups in census block groups with higher minority concentrations. City of Baldwin Park IX - 6 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Impediments to Fair Housing Impediments ; '' ,- Recommentlafions ry' Lead Agency ' T,imeframe It is recommended that HRC continue to provide fair housing technical assistance to real estate professionals with fair housing questions or concerns in Baldwin Park and throughout Los Angeles. The City should work with HRC in an effort to expand community participation at the City of Baldwin Park's Crime Free Multi- Family Housing Workshop. This annual gathering of property managers /owners promotes Lack of awareness of fair housing laws at no charge. City of Baldwin 3' Awareness of The City also publishes a newsletter "Baldwin Park Housing 6/30!10 Fair Housing Park Now." It is further recommended that the Division; Housing Laws City publish real -life accounts from families who Rights Center have been discriminated against in seeking housing opportunities, followed by a statement that households or individuals who are experiencing similar discrimination should contact the Housing Rights Center for more information and assistance in securing housing in the City. These outreach efforts will serve to increase awareness of fair housing rights and responsibilities throughout Baldwin Park.

The Housing Rights Center provides a wide array of programs and services to its clients free of charge and which are available in multiple languages to residents, housing professional and community service providers under contracts with the City of Baldwin Park, and many other communities. H. Fair Housing Strategy The Housing Department, as the lead agency for the Consolidated Plan, is committed to working with its public, private, and nonprofit partners to ensure fair housing choice for all residents. This commitment includes incorporating fair housing needs and strategies into the Consolidated Plan. In conjunction with the 2010 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice for the City of Baldwin Park the Housing Department will develop measurable actions that it will undertake each year to carry out this strategy. The Annual Action Plan for each program year will describe these actions. City of Baldwin Park IX - 8 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 ¥. �+ � �a .� m 2® «4A Lead -based Paint Hazard X. Lead -based Paint Hazards A. Introduction Lead -based paint poisoning among children is increasing nationwide. Research indicates that even a low level of lead in a child's blood can have harmful effects on physical and developmental health. The Center for Disease Control has designated lead exposure as the primary environmental health hazard facing American children. The most common source of exposure is deteriorating lead -based paint and lead - contaminated dust found in the home. Fortunately, lead poisoning is preventable. To adequately protect children, the Federal government streamlined, modernized, and consolidated all lead -based paint requirements in Federally- assisted housing. In 2000, HUD implemented new regulations (24 CFR Part 35) to arrest the incidence of lead -based paint poisoning as a result of aging and deteriorating housing conditions across the nation. The City has implemented these regulations and will continue to follow these regulations in its programs. B. Lead Hazards Lead can cause severe damage to the health of young children. Lead attacks the central nervous system and the neurological system, and can cause brain damage, IQ reduction, learning disabilities, decreased attention span, hyperactivity, growth inhibition, comas, seizures, and in some cases, death. Fetuses may also experience significant adverse effects through prenatal exposure. In 1991, the Center for Disease Control issued guidelines for identifying children with lead poisoning. It recommended that jurisdictions screen all young children for lead in their blood. Children identified with blood lead poisoning would receive intervention to remove the source of the poisoning and reduce the blood lead level. The problem of lead poisoning has increased so dramatically that the Center has reduced the standard regarding the blood level that demarcates lead poisoning by more than half. By reducing the standard from 25 micrograms to 10 micrograms of lead in a deciliter of blood (lag /dL), it expanded the number of people considered to be poisoned and in need of help. A level of 10 tag /dL or above is now considered an "elevated blood lead level." If a child's blood lead level is 20 tag /dL or remains at 15 lag /dL after two tests, the Center for Disease Control requires case management by local health professionals. Even a low level of lead in a child's blood can have harmful effects on physical and developmental health. C. Sources of Lead Hazards The most common source of child lead poisoning is exposure to lead -based paint (and lead- contaminated dust) in the child's home. Housing built before 1978 may contain some lead -based paint since the use of lead -based paint became illegal that City of Baldwin Park X - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Lead -based Paint Hazard year. Since the amount of lead pigment in the paint tends to increase with a home's age, older housing is more likely to have the most lead -based paint hazards. Lead exposure occurs when children ingest chips of lead -based paint, paint contaminated dust, or paint- contaminated soil. It also occurs if they inhale dust particles from lead -based paint (usually occurring due to deterioration, abrasion, home renovation, or maintenance). Children are also exposed to lead through a variety of other sources besides lead -based paint, such as gasoline, air, food, water, soil, dust, and parental hobbies such as pottery and stained glass making. Occupational lead exposure accounts for poisoning cases. Occupations in which ; smelting and refining industries, battery construction and residential painting. D. What is a Lead -based Paint Hazard? approximately 90 percent of adult lead a worker is potentially exposed include manufacturing plants, gasoline stations, Lead -based paint hazards consist of any condition that causes exposure to lead from the following sources that would result in adverse human health effects: Lead -based paint dust. Lead -based paint contaminated soil. Lead - contaminated paint that is deteriorated or present in accessible surfaces, friction surfaces, or impact surfaces. E. Effects of Lead Hazard Lead poisoning is one of the most common and preventable health hazards to American children. today. Research indicates that even a low level of lead in a child's blood can have harmful effects on their physical and developmental health. Lead poisoning is the most serious environ1 i entai threat to childr en's health If harmful levels of lead are not detected early, children could suffer from: • Decreased growth. • Learning problems. • Impaired hearing. • Behavior problems (such as hyperactivity). • Nerve and /or brain damage. Children are more susceptible to the effects of lead, because their growing bodies absorb more lead and young children often put their hands and other objects in their mouths. In addition, their brains and nervous systems are more sensitive to the damaging effects of lead. City of Baldwin Park X - 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Lead -based Paint Hazard Most children do not have any symptoms, even if a blood test shows that they have an elevated blood lead level. If a child does have symptoms, the symptoms may be mistaken for the flu or other illnesses. If symptoms occur, they might be: • Irritability ■ Frequent Vomiting • Poor appetite • Fatigue ® Headache • Stomachache and cramps • Constipation • Sleep disorder Lead can cause severe damage in young children. It attacks the central nervous system and the neurological system, causing brain damage, IQ reduction, learning disabilities, decreased attention span, hyperactivity, comas, seizures, and in some cases, death. There may also be significant adverse effects to fetuses through prenatal exposure. Who is At Risk? Residents of any housing built before 1978 are considered to be at risk of containing some amount of lead -based paint. Older housing is more likely to hays !ead -based paint and the amount of lead pigment in the paint tends to increase with the age of the housing. A small portion of Baldwin Park's housing stock (24 percent) was built after 1979, eliminating the residents of these homes from risk of lead -based paint hazards. An additional 15 percent of the City's housing stock was built between 1970 and 1979, which has a somewhat lower risk of lead -based paint hazards. Since low- income people often live in older housing, they are at higher risk for exposure to lead -based paint. It is estimated that 15.3 percent of the units constructed before 1978 are occupied by low - -income households and potentially have lead -based paint. However, empirical evidence gathered through the testing of pre -1978 housing done in conjunction with the City's various housing rehabilitation programs suggests that a smaller percentage of the City's housing stock has paint containing lead. Young children who live in housing built before 1978 could ingest lead -based paint and are thus at higher risk. The following children in Baldwin Park could be at higher risk: Children under 5 years old: about 11.8 percent of the population of Baldwin Park, or 8,947 children,' Approximately 838 families (or 36 percent of the total number of families below the poverty level) have related children under six years old are living below poverty.2 F. Number of Children with Elevated Blood Levels of Lead The Center for Disease Control mandates lead screening for all children who participate in Federally- funded health programs. Screening typically occurs when a child is between 12 and 72 months old. An elevated blood level (EBL) is recorded when the blood level is 10 fag /d L.

City of Baldwin Park X - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Lead -based Paint Hazard In accordance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a "case" is defined as a child having a blood lead level equal to or greater than 20 fag /dL once, or blood lead levels between 15 -19 pg /dL for at least two tests. Once a case is reported, the Department of Health Services is involved in the case, as described below the heading, Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPP). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, records the number of reported annual screenings, the number of children with elevated blood levels and the number of reported cases for the cities within Los Angeles County. The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health — Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPPP) for the time period of 2004 -2009, reports the following: Table 10 -1 Elevated Blood Lead Levels Year # of Reported Cases* # of Elevated Blood Lead Levels 2005 1 5 2006 2 3 2007 0 4 2008 0 5 2009 0 2 5-year total 3 19 BILL = blood lead level CDC = Centers for Disease Control and Prevention mcg /dL = micrograms per deciliter *As of 2005, California Law requires all laboratories to report all Blood Lead Levels electronically.

G. Strategies and Objectives The City's strategy for lead -based paint falls under: Housing Strategy #1: Preserve and Improve the Existing Stock of Affordable Housing The following describes the programs and activities to support this strategy and more specifically to address lead -based paint in federally assisted housing. City of Baldwin Park X-4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Lead -based Paint Hazard The City undertakes a range of activities to address the problem of lead -based paint in the housing, including outreach, assessment, and abatement. As required by HUD regulation 24 CFR Part 35, the City has a Lead -Based Paint Implementation Plan that includes a Needs Assessment Matrix that estimates lead -based paint needs by activity. The City conducts housing inspections to determine if various types of housing are safe, sanitary, and fit for habitation. H. City Compliance and Activities The City has taken aggressive action to ensure compliance with HUD's Consolidated Lead -Based Paint Regulations. The matrix on p. X -6 displays the process and procedures that the City uses to address lead -based paint in CDBG and HOME - funded Rehabilitation Programs. This matrix is broken into three categories— rehabilitation under $5,000, rehabilitation $5,000 to $25,000, and rehabilitation over $25,000 —and describes the approach to lead hazard evaluation and reduction, application to the program, scope of work, notification, lead hazard evaluation, relocation requirements, lead hazard reduction, clearance, and options.

City of Baldwin Park X - 6 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Lead -based Paint Hazard In prior years, the City has proactively disseminated information on lead hazards and the new regulations to its Housing staff; Community -Based Organizations; non- profit organizations; and other participating public agencies that receive City administered federal funds. To ensure that its staff is knowledgeable about lead regulations, the City has sent staff to HUD - sponsored training sessions. Activities of Other County Agencies Other County agencies administer various programs and engage in various activities to address lead hazards or lead -based paint issues. These programs and activities are listed below. Los Angeles County Department of Public Health The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health implements the Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPPP). The program is a court ordered program which implements a multifaceted approach to preventing childhood lead poisoning which includes screening, surveillance, risk reduction, primary prevention activities, interagency coordination, and services for children affected by lead. The mission of Los Angeles County CLPPP is to reduce children's blood lead levels below 10 pg /dl through primary prevention activities. The Public Health Nutrition Division of the County of Los Angeles County Department of Health Services administers a Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPPP) with the following mission: Forming alliances with the community, schools, public and private agencies, local print and broadcast media and businesses to promote healthy eating and physical activity; Empowering families and individuals to choose and prepare nutritious foods and to be physically active; Providing referrals to emergency food resources to those in need of food assistance and raising community awareness about food security. The Division has four units to carry out the mission of the CLPPP: the Case Management, Environmental Health, Epidemiology, and Health Promotion and Education Units. The Case Management Unit has Public Health Nurses who assist primary care providers with identification, follow -up and management of lead- poisoned children considered to be a case. Once a child has been identified as a case, a Public Health Nurse visits the child's home to provide a general physical assessment of the child. The nurse also educates the family on the effects of lead poisoning, explains how to prevent it, and helps link the family to any needed health and social services. 3 Information on the Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program was received from the County of Los Angeles County Department of Health Services. City of Baldwin Park X - 7 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Lead -based Paint Hazard The Environmental Health Unit sends Registered Environmental Health Specialists to visit a lead- poisoned child's environment to identify hazards, interview parents and take environmental samples. These specialists investigate, evaluate and analyze lead hazards, including source identification. The inspectors may issue corrective notices to eliminate lead hazards as well as monitor home repair, corrective notices, or compliances. The Epidemiology Unit maintains a lead poisoning database, which includes demographic, geographic, laboratory and clinical information on all reported screenings, and identified cases throughout the County. The Epidemiology staff plans, directs, and evaluates original epidemiological studies, analyzes lead poisoning data and responds to data requests from interested parties. Finally, the Health Promotion and Education Unit maintains a library of information on lead and lead poisoning prevention, available to the community in several languages. The unit also provides presentations, information booths, and trainings upon request.

Housing and Community Development Delivery System A. Housing and Community Development Delivery System State agencies, local governments, nonprofit organizations, businesses, and financial institutions are all vital players in Baldwin Park's housing and community development delivery system. This section examines the effectiveness of the housing and community development system in the City and possible strategies to enhance collaboration. Institutional Structure: The institutional structure is comprised of the private, public, and nonprofit organizations that help carry out the Consolidated Plan for the City. The relationships and interaction of these organizations as they deliver programs and undertake activities is known as the City's housing and community development delivery system. 1. Lead Agency The City of Baldwin Park Housing Department is the lead agency for the Consolidated Plan. It administers the City's CDBG and HOME programs. As the City's affordable housing and community development agency, its mission is to Enhances the Quality of Life of Residents Within our Community by strengthening communities, empowering families, supporting local economies, and promoting individual achievement. The Housing Department plans, administers, implements, and monitors projects funded through the City's formula entitlement funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. These entitlements include the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) programs. As the recipient of these funds, the Housing Department is tasked with the responsibility for developing and carrying out the Consolidated Plan. The City uses these and other funds to provide decent housing, create a suitable living environment, and expand economic opportunities throughout the City. 2. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program The CDBG program was initiated by the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. Although the Act has been amended in recent years, the primary objective continues to be the development of viable urban communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons of low and moderate - income. Each year the City program is designed to achieve this primary objective. Regulations governing the Program also require that each activity undertaken with CDBG funds meet one of three broad national objectives as follows: City of Baldwin Park XI - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Benefit low- and moderate - income persons. • Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums and blight. • Meet other community development needs having a particular urgency. The City certifies that its Annual Action Plan has been designed to give maximum feasible priority to activities, which meet the first and second objectives above. Additionally, the City certifies that no less than 70 percent of the CDBG funds received will be designed to benefit low- and moderate - income persons. 3. Home Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) On November 28, 1990, the Cranston - Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act was enacted (P.L. 101 -625). The HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) program was created as a result of this legislation. It affords states and local governments the flexibility to fund a wide range of low- income housing activities through housing partnerships among states, localities, private industry, and nonprofit organizations. This program provides federal funds for the development and rehabilitation of affordable rental and homeownership housing, replacing a series of programs previously funded by HUD. Funds are allocated by HUD to qualifying "Participating Jurisdictions" (PJs), such as the City of Baldwin Park, based upon a variety of demographic and housing factors. With the exception of a waiver granted for disaster - related funding, HOME funds are subject to a 25 percent match of non - federal funds or in -kind contributions. The City of Baldwin Park has obtained such a waiver from HUD, therefore is not requested to provide a match. HOME regulations require grantees, such as the City of Baldwin Park, to allocate at least fifteen percent (15 %) of its annual HOME award to activities sponsored, managed or owned by a Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO). A CHDO is a special designation for nonprofits that provide a variety of housing activities including affordable housing development, management and homeless housing programs. HUD encourages partnerships between grantees and CHDOs to maintain and expand affordable housing. 4. Homeless Services Programs (Including ESG Program) The Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG) program began on November 7, 1989, as part of the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act. The program is designed to improve the quality of existing emergency shelters, make available additional emergency shelters, help meet the cost of operating emergency shelters, and provide essential social services to homeless individuals. The ESG program ensures that the homeless have access not only to safe and sanitary shelter but also to supportive services and other kinds of assistance needed to improve their situations. The program is also intended to reduce homelessness through the funding of preventive programs and activities. On December 17, 1993, the County of Los Angeles and the City of Los Angeles entered into a joint exercise of powers agreement to create the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) to provide coordinated homeless services. Programs initially assigned to LAHSA by the County and City of Los Angeles include City of Baldwin Park XI - 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 the ESG Program and the Cold/Wet Weather Emergency Shelter Program, funded in part with CDBG funds, as well as other homeless services programs already being provided by the County and City. Subsequently, on November 15, 1994, the County approved entering into a grant agreement with the City and HUD to implement the Los Angeles Area Homeless Initiative pursuant to the "HUD Demonstration Act of 1993." The County and City have designated LAHSA to administer the Homeless Initiative. All of these Homeless Programs and funds will be coordinated by LAHSA. The funds will be apportioned in the County and City according to need and in keeping with the Continuum of Care, described in Section VI of the Consolidated Plan. The City of Baldwin Park is located in the County's Service Planning Area 3 (SPA 3) commonly referred to as the San Gabriel Valley Planning Area. The estimated number of homeless persons in the LAHSA- defined SPA 3 region is 2,780 according to LAHSA's 2009 Greater Los Angeles Homeless Count. Housing and service providers to the homeless in the San Gabriel Valley have formed a coalition known as the East San Gabriel Valley Coalition for the Homeless. The Coalition serves 35 public and private organization members, including the City of Baldwin Park. Coalition members meet monthly and contribute input at LAHSA's Continuum of Care planning workshops. 5. Housing Authority of County Of Los Angeles (HACoLA) The Housing Authority of the County of Los Angeles (HACoLA) is a public housing authority with jurisdiction throughout the unincorporated county and within the participating cities. its purpose is to administer federal funds for public housing projects and government assisted housing units such as the Section 8 Rental Subsidy and Family Self- Sufficiency programs. HACoLA is staffed by the Community Development Commission (CDC), and is governed by the Housing Authority Board of Commissioners. The County Board of Supervisors serves as the Housing Board of Commissioners, with each of the five members duly elected by supervisorial district. Each member of the Housing Board of Commissioner in turn appoints a representative to the nine member Housing Commission, with four at -large members; two selected from tenants of Housing Authority developments and two who are receiving Section 8 assistance through HACoLA. The Housing Commission serves as an advisory body to the Board of Commissioners on matters related to the Housing Authority, including housing development, modernization, acquisition, management, maintenance and administration. The majority of HACoLA decisions such as procurement, hiring and contracting are independent of review and approval by the Community Development Block Grant Division of the CDC. The CDC maintains decentralized procedures by division, with all activities governed by the CDC's Purchasing, Policies and Procedures Manual. The manual ensures that CDC activities are consistent with Office of City of Baldwin Park XI - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 unity Development'` System Management and Budget regulations. The Central Services Division of the CDC is charged with providing final oversight of procurement and contracting to ensure compliance with adopted policies. Because HACoLA is part of the overall CDC structure, there is good communication between HACoLA and other divisions of the CDC. Specifically, HACoLA communicates with the relevant divisions of the CDC regarding the public housing comprehensive plan, and proposed demolition or disposition of public housing projects, or proposed development sites. The goals of the Public Housing Comprehensive Plan are coordinated with the Consolidated Plan and Annual Agency Plans that are submitted to the Community Development Block Grant Division for certification of consistency of the Consolidated Plan. 6. Housing Authority of City of Baldwin Park In 1981, the City of Baldwin Park established the Housing Authority of the City of Baldwin Park as a public housing authority having jurisdiction within the City's corporate limits. Aseven- member Board of Commissioners consists of five (5) residents of Baldwin Park and two (2) resident members currently residing in housing BPHA or Section 8 housing units. Two of the Commissioners serve as Chair and Vice - Chair, respectively. The Baldwin Park Housing Authority is responsible for preserving, increasing, and improving the supply of affordable housing in the community. This is accomplished through administration of the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program. The Department also manages the Housing Authority's 12 -unit public housing project, and works with developers to create new affordable housing opportunities for low- income households. 7. Other Housing and Community Development Organizations Other public agencies, for - profit entities, and nonprofit organizations all play a part in the provision of affordable housing and community services in the City. The City strives to coordinate with these organizations in the development of "Lu h is Consolidated QiI an and in the delivery Of the program Is v rc red by it. City Departments City staff coordinates with various City departments to carry out the City's housing and community development strategies and to allocate CDBG and HOME funds to provide funding support to achieve community development goals. These departments include: • Community Development Department • Police Department ■ Public Works Department ■ Recreation Department City of Baldwin Park XI - 4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Organizations Major players in the City's institutional structure for housing and community development include nonprofit organizations. The City contracts directly with a number of nonprofit community -based organizations to provide public services to City residents, including a wide range of programs for persons with special needs, homeless, seniors, youth, and other low- and moderate - income populations. For production of affordable housing, the City supplements its own efforts by entering into partnerships with private sector and nonprofit developers and housing development corporations. Additionally, through a joint exercise of powers agreement, the County of Los Angeles and City of Los Angeles created the Los Angeles Homeless Service Authority (LAHSA) in 1993. LAHSA is charged with planning the continuum of care for homeless services in the City and County of Los Angeles, a component of which includes distribution of the County's ESG funding to nonprofit agencies operating shelter programs. LAHSA functions to coordinate homeless service funas throughout the County and link such funds to development activities. Housing Authority of the County of Los Angeles— administers the project - based housing units in Baldwin Park. Housing Authority of the City of Baldwin Park – The Housing Authority of the City of Baldwin Park currently owns one 12 unit multi - family complex and Section 8 vouchers located in the City of Baldwin Park. Housing Rights Center – provides Fair Housing services. California Department of Health Services (CDHS), Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Branch (C LIP PB)— compiles information, identifies target areas and analyzes information to design and implement a program of medical follow-up and environmental abatement to reduce childhood 'lead exposure. Programs operated by the CLPPB include: 1) accreditation of training providers and certification of individuals involved in construction related activities; 2) reporting of elevated blood lead levels by medical laboratories; 3) lead exposure screening; 4) real estate disclosure of known LBP hazards upon sale of property; and 5) lead related activities in construction work, as well as other various other childhood and occupational lead poisoning prevention programs. 8. Faith -Based Organizations Recently, there has been great recognition and value given to the contributions of faith -based organizations (FBOs) in providing social services. In the past, FBOs have been particularly visible in providing food, clothing, and shelter to individuals and families in need. However, more recently faith -based organizations have also taken on a (new) role in helping encourage housing and community development efforts. City of Baldwin Park XI - 5 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 welopment System Moreover, the significance of faith based organizations in the United States is underlined by former President George Bush's creation of the Office of Faith - Based and Community Initiatives. This initiative expanded the role of faith based organizations, by requiring Cabinet agencies to create their own Center for Faith -Based and Community Initiatives to work in tandem with the White House OFBCI, to make federal grants available to Faith -Based and Community Initiatives nationwide. Agencies include the following Federal Departments: Health and Human Services; Housing and Urban Development; Labor; Justice; and Education. B. Gaps in the Institutional Structure Consolidated Plan requirements include an examination of how organizations in the City that "deliver" housing and community development (called the institutional structure). This examination includes identifying the gaps in the institutional structure and developing strategies to address the gaps. Baldwin Park can only achieve its Comprehensive prehensive Plai goals and Consolidated Plan strategies if its institutional structure is complete. As the lead agency for the City of Baldwin Park 2010 — 2014 Consolidated Plan, the Baldwin Park Housing Department desired to gain a better understanding of the gaps and potential strategies needed for collaborative long -term planning. The ideas of the City's housing and community development organizations are crucial to an accurate gaps analysis of the institutional structure. They are even more important to the development and implementation of strategies to overcome the gaps. Therefore interviews and discussions with stakeholders included questions or comments concerning the current gaps in the local delivery system for housing and community development. Also discussed were the preliminary components of strategies for filling the most troublesome gaps. Gap in the Institutional Structure: A missing component, such as an organization, a relationship, a service, a project, or an activity. Common Themes Several issues emerged from the interviews and discussions with community based organizations and other stakeholders. These issues provide a good starting point in understanding the gaps in the housing and community development delivery system. They also provide a foundation for developing workable, collaborative strategies to fill the gaps. a. Public Education Gap: The lack of knowledge among the public and lower income clients arose as a common need. The most common gap cited was knowledge of the available resources, services, and programs for lower income people and persons with special needs. This lack of knowledge occurred among clients, employers, and service providers. b. Unmet Housing Needs: Almost all providers mentioned an urgent need for affordable housing spread out across the City, especially supportive housing for lower income people and persons with special needs. People mentioned that under - served housing needs include persons with both City of Baldwin Park XI - 6 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Housing & Community Development; System substance abuse and mental illness, including the dually diagnosed, persons needing assisted or supportive living arrangements, and former offenders. c. Lack of Children- Centered Services: Services and programs related to children in lower income families repeatedly arose as a theme. Lack of quality childcare surfaced as a gap in all discussions. Other child - related issues included the lack of the following items: a children's primary prevention program, training for childcare providers, childcare at non - traditional hours, mental health and substance abuse treatment services and facilities for children and mental health prevention for children. d. Need for More Services for Persons with Special Needs and the Homeless: Such needs include mental health and substance abuse treatment services and facilities, long -term care facilities and services for low- income persons, transportation for the low- income elderly and low- income residents, transitional housing with supportive services for homeless persons with multiple diagnoses, and homeless shelters with services for children. e. Communication /Coordination among Organizations: This theme arose in many forms. It includes lack of communication between specific groups and the overall community of service providers, such as the need for stronger relationships between all types of organizations involved in housing and community development (neighborhood groups, church groups, nonprofit agencies, and government agencies). Lack of a working group on affordable housing was cited as a gap. Participants pointed to many reasons for this lack of communication and coordination, such as the division of City programs and the division of Federal, State, and local grant programs as a barrier. In addition, confidentiality laws reduce information sharing between service providers and contribute to a lack of good referrals. C. Housing and Community Development Delivery System Strategy The themes and gaps that emerged from the needs assessment surveys and interviews with community based organizations and stakeholders provide the basis for cooperative strategies to fill gaps in the City's housing and community development system. As lead entity for Baldwin Park's Consolidated Plan, the Baldwin Park Housing Department's focus on the institutional structure should be a broad strategy of coordination, empowerment, and communication with the public, private, and nonprofit sectors. D. Priority Strategy for the Housing and Community Development Delivery System: Encourage collaboration among the organizations providing housing, community development, and economic development programs and services in the City. The Baldwin Park Housing Department has an opportunity to take an active leadership role in many of the areas above. These areas include vision, communication and coordination, education, and outreach. The Baldwin Park Housing Department will continue to develop and communicate its vision and mission. This will allow its partners to better understand Baldwin Park Housing Department's role in the City of Baldwin Park XI - 7 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 City of Baldwin Park Draft 03/25/10 ystem iffies in 2O1O-2014 Consolidated Plan v # #. 2 t .w 7 Anti- Poverty Strategy XII. Anti - Poverty Strategy A. Poverty in Context The U.S. Census Bureau follows the Office of Management and Budget's Directive 14 to define poverty. It therefore uses a set of income thresholds that vary by family size and composition to detect who is "poor." If the total income for a family or unrelated individual falls below the relevant poverty threshold, then the family or unrelated individual is classified as being "below the poverty level." The official poverty definition counts money income before taxes and does not include capital gains and non -cash benefits (such as public housing, Medicaid, and food stamps). Poverty is not defined for people in military barracks, institutional group quarters, or for unrelated individuals under age 15 (such as foster children). They are excluded from the poverty universe —that is, they are considered neither as "poor" nor as "non- poor." Since this Housing and Community Development Plan covers programs designed to help primarily low- income people and neighborhoods, it must also include an anti - poverty component. By undertaking activities funded by the CDBG, HOME, and ESG programs (City does not have an ESG program unless you are referring to HPRP), the Housing Department supports the State's overall anti - poverty strategy of moving low- income people to self- sufficiency. The Housing Department consults with many public, private, and nonprofit organizations to help ensure that its goals, programs, and policies for activities such as producing and preserving affordable housing are effectively coordinated to best reduce the number of poverty level families. Most of the funds available through the Consolidated Plan assist households with incomes below 80% of the area median income. However, the City must develop strategies and programs that targets assistance to families at the lowest income levels and help them rise above the poverty level. This set of strategies is called the Anti - Poverty Strategy. This section will provide an overview of existing services and i_gow 'the City will complement those services. B. Analysis of Poverty in City Poverty is the condition of having insufficient resources or income. In its extreme form, poverty is a lack of basic human needs, such as adequate and healthy food, clothing, housing, water, and health services. Even modest levels of poverty can prevent people from realizing their goals and dreams. Census data from the year 2000 indicates that 13,541 Baldwin Park residents were living in poverty in 1999, which is 18.2 percent of the population. This number translates to 2,323 families, or 15.4 percent of the families in Baldwin Park. Almost 15.5 percent of these families had a child under the age of 5 years old. In accordance with the 2006 -2008 U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey the estimated percentages for the number of individuals in poverty has decreased to 14.6 percent and the number of families has also dropped to 12.7 percent. City of Baldwin Park XII- 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Anti- Poverty Strategy Although most of Baldwin Park's households have higher incomes, a significant number are living at or near poverty. The housing section stated that this division of wealth has significant social consequences and implications for Baldwin Park's market segmentation, housing demand, and affordability. In 2000, female headed households make up 36.7 percent of families living in poverty. More than 32 percent of the households living in poverty included a child under the age of 18; almost 37 percent of these families included a child under the age of 5. In accordance with the 2006 -2008 U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey the estimated percentages for the number of female headed households in poverty has decreased to 23.5 percent. C. The State's Welfare -to -Work Program The City's anti - poverty strategy and activities support the overall effort in the State to move low- income families to economic self- sufficiency. The California Department of Health and Social Services is the nexus of the State's welfare -to- work program and is thus the lead anti - poverty agency in the State. D. Existing Programs In California, the primary programs for assisting families in poverty are CalWORKS, Food Stamps, and Medi -Cal. Together, these programs combine to provide clients with employment assistance, discounted food, medical care, child care, and cash payments to meet basic needs such as housing and transportation. A short description of each is provided below. CaIWORKs The California Work Opportunities for Kids (CaIWORKs) program is a time - limited program that provides financial assistance and Welfare -to -Work services to families with children who are deprived of support or care due to the death, incapacity, unemployment /underemployment, or continued absence of one or both parents. Homeless Assistance is included it this program Cal1n /ORKc is adminictPrPd following Federal and State regulations. Food Stamps The Food Stamp Program is a nutritional assistance program designed to help single people and families with little or no income to buy food. Food Stamp benefits are issued on an EBT Card that is used just like a bank card at most local food stores. The Food Stamp Program is a Federal State funded program. Medi -Cal The Medi -Cal program pays for health care for certain needy residents of California, including public assistance recipients. Medi -Cal is supported by federal and state taxes. Pregnant women and children have been the focus of outreach efforts by the State of California for enrollment in the Medi -Cal program. City of Baldwin Park XII- 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Anti- Poverty Strategy CDBG, HOME, and ESG- Funded (SAME COMMENT REGARDING HPRP)Activities Congress designed the CDBG, HOME and ESG programs to serve lower- income people, some of which may meet the federal poverty definition, and at least 51 percent of whom are low- and moderate - income individuals and families. At least 70 percent of all CDBG funds must be used for activities that are considered under program rules to benefit low- to moderate - income persons. Additionally, every CDBG activity must meet one of three national objectives: (1) benefits low- and moderate - income persons (at least 51 percent of the beneficiaries must be low- to moderate - income; (2) addresses slums or blight, or (3) meets a particularly urgent community development need. Under the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), households must earn no more than 80 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI), adjusted for household size, to be eligible for assistance. Furthermore, 90 percent of a HOME Participating Jurisdiction's (PJ's) annual HOME allocation that is invested in affordable rental housing must go to assist households earning no more than 60 percent of AMI (the "90/60" rule). The County's ESG program is administered through the County of Los Angeles and its continuum of care provider Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority. Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority supports, creates, and sustains solutions to homelessness in Los Angeles County by providing leadership, advocacy, planning and management of program funding. Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority provides funding and guidance for a vast network of local, non - profit agencies with missions to help people leave homelessness permanently. These agencies are dedicated to providing as much assistance as possible, including emergency shelter, to help homeless persons with housing, case management, counseling, advocacy, substance abuse programs, and other specialized services. General Relief rte_ County r�_i:_r ,.^�r+� �_�� s_.., ., s. .J:. -_-.s I He County General Relief ((3R') program provides loan assistance to indigent individuals and families in temporary need of housing, food, and /or transportation. General Relief is the only Transitional Assistance Department (TAD) program that is totally funded, as well as administered, by the County of Los Angeles. Child Care TAD operates a number of child care programs funded by the California Department of Social Services or the Department of Education. These programs provide child care payments to providers on behalf of CaIWORKs recipients in approved work or training programs, former CalWORKs recipients, parents in child protective services cases, and the working poor. Payments are reimbursements for child care provided and are paid directly to the provider. Also available are services designed to treat persons suffering from substance abuse, domestic violence, and mental illness. These programs are administered through TAD. City of Baldwin Park XII- 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Anti- Poverty Strategy E. Anti - Poverty Strategy The City's goal is to help families that are self- sufficient yet still at -risk to increase their financial stability. The focus of the anti - poverty strategy is three -fold: (1) to help these families accumulate assets, (2) to help these families address issues, such as substance abuse and domestic violence, that may threaten the family's stability, and (3) to provide these families with employment - related supportive services such as child -care. This focus will be incorporated into the programs and policies undertaken by the City as part of this Consolidated Plan. Programs The City of Baldwin Park is considering a variety of programs. Activities will be described in detail in the City's Annual Action Plan. Potential programs may include: Asset Building: Downpayment Assistance: Homeownership is the most effective array for a family to accumulate assets. The City will continue to administer its First Time Homebuyer Program to assist low -and moderate - income families realize the dream of homeownership. Family Stability Counseling: Substance Abuse Services: Domestic Violence Services: Employment Related Supportive Services Job Training Child Care 2. Policies The City will fully comply with Section 3 of the Housing and Community Development Act. Section 3 helps foster local economic development, neighborhood economic improvement, and individual self- sufficiency. This set of regulations require that to the greatest extent feasible, the City will provide job training, employment, and contracting opportunities for low- or, very -low income residents in connection with housing and public construction projects. Public services funded through the Consolidated Planning process that promote the self- sufficiency of families in poverty (extremely low- income) will be given preference. City of Baldwin Park XII- 4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 IAnti- Poverty Strategy Firms that accept City contracts that are implemented using federal funds are encouraged to adopt an affirmative hiring policy that gives preference to participants in the County's GAIN Welfare to Work Program. When evaluating economic development aid packages and incentives offered to firms in exchange for relocating to the City, the City will incorporate a benchmark measure called the Stability Index when reviewing the income level of potential jobs. The Stability Index determines the wage required, based on family size and composition, a family needs to (A) meet their basic needs without subsidies of any kind and (B) save 5% of their income. This index is based on the Self - Sufficiency Standard developed by Wider Opportunities for Women.

Strategic Plan The Strategic Plan section of the Consolidated Plan summarizes Baldwin Park's 5 -year strategies and objectives to address the needs described earlier in the Consolidated Plan. To carry out each objective, the City has developed measurable actions that it will undertake each year. The Baldwin Park 2010 -2015 Consolidated Plan includes the first of five Annual Action Plans. Each of these plans will describe the activities planned for the coming program year to carry out the 5 -year strategies. Additionally, 90 days following the conclusion of each program year, the City will submit a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) to report the City's progress in carrying out the strategies, objectives, and actions of the Annual Action Plan and the 5 -year strategies. A. Strategies and Objectives Baldwin Park developed priority strategies and objectives to meet the housing and - - community development needs described in earlier sections. It also set other strategies regarding specific local issues. Consolidated Plan Goals The City's strategies, objectives, and activities for the Consolidated Plan must meet Federal goals. Regulations state that the Consolidated Plan's activities should meet one of the following three goals, including the provision of: ■ Affordable housing opportunities; ■ A suitable living environment; and /or ■ Expanded economic opportunity. The City's Priority Strategies Through the citizen participation and consultation process described in the Section on Consolidated Plan Development, the City developed top -level strategic goals to meet the priority needs (described in previous sections). It will invest its CDBG and HOME, funds according to these strategies: 1. Expand the supply of affordable rental and homeownership housing opportunities. 2. Preserve and improve the existing housing stock and ensure equal access. City of Baldwin Park XIII - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Strategic Plan Homeless Strategy 1. Support continuum of care services in support of the City's and the County's efforts to end homeless. Special Needs Strategy 1, Help persons with special needs live as independently as possible Senior Services Strategy 1.

Contribute to the well -being of individuals, families, and neighborhoods. The City will provide CDBG and HOME funds to projects that help meet the above strategies during one or more of the five program years covered by the Baldwin Park 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan. City of Baldwin Park XIII - 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Strategic Plan Other Strategies The City of Baldwin Park develops strategies to carry out specific national Consolidated Plan objectives. These include strategies to: • Address impediments to fair housing • Reduce lead -based paint hazards • Move low- income persons to self- sufficiency (anti - poverty strategy) • Address barriers to affordable housing • Monitor all projects and programs In support of these strategies, the CITY developed the following additional strategies to ensure coordination and collaboration in meeting the objectives: ■ Work with the p! hlic, private, and nonprofit sectors to identify impediments to fair housing choice and develop strategies to overcome them. ■ Collaborate with State and local agencies, nonprofit groups, and the private sector to reduce housing - related lead -based paint hazards, especially for low - income families and children. ■ Support State and County efforts to move low- income persons to economic self sufficiency. ■ Encourage collaboration among the organizations providing housing, community development, and economic development programs and services in the County. Ensure compliance with applicable Federal and contractual requirement of all subgrantees and other service providers. B. General Priorities for Investment The Strategic Plan must identify Baldwin Park's general priorities for activities and HUD - supported investments to address affordable housing needs, homelessness, the need of non - homeless persons who required supportive housing, and non - housing community development needs. These general and relative priorities will help guide HUD - supported housing and community development initiatives in Baldwin Park for 2010 -2015. General priorities are those shown as "H" (for "high) as shown on the priority needs tables in earlier sections of this document. These are the priority needs tables that address affordable housing needs (HUD Table 2A), homelessness (HUD Table 1A), the need of non - homeless persons who required supportive housing (HUD Table 1B), and non - housing community development needs (HUD Table 213). These priorities are not intended to preclude nor impede use of HUD or other City of Baldwin Park XIII - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Strategic Plan government /private resources when other documented priority needs are known to exist or can be established. The relative priority of needs is delineated into three categories: high, medium and low. C. Geographic Priorities for Investment Most general priorities in this Strategic Plan are focused on meeting the housing and community development needs of low- income households and neighborhoods throughout the City Baldwin Park. Some housing and community development revitalization initiatives are targeted to low- income residents or specific neighborhoods. Basis for Assigning Priorities The narrative for each table contains a description of the basis for assigning priorities to the needs that have been identified. Please consult each needs section for this explanation. Obstacles to Meeting Underserved Needs Obstacles to meeting underserved needs have been identified through the housing and community development needs assessment and input from the citizen participation process. Some of these needs were identified in the previous Consolidated Plan, while others were identified in this one. Underserved groups in City include large family renters, defined as five or more persons. This group experienced various housing problems including high housing costs, overcrowding and inadequate housing as referenced in the Housing Market Analysis section. Underserved needs exist when there is a disproportionately greater need by the low -to- moderate - income population targeted, in comparison to the needs of the population as a .dhole. Data analyzed in the Hni sing Market Analysis indicateci that housing and rents have risen in the City while incomes have not kept pace with the rising housing costs. The demand for low cost housing continues to increase, while housing costs continue to increase. Other underserved groups include the mentally ill homeless, and homeless persons who are dually diagnosed with mental illness and substance abuse. The County's Continuum of Care strategy, administered by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) and implemented locally by the East San Gabriel Valley (ESGV) Coalition for the Homeless, intended to meet this challenge through coordinated efforts with the County Department of Mental Health and other homeless service agencies. Services provided by LAHSA and ESGV include such program as the Winter Shelter, InfoLine, Emergency Response Team, 24 -hour beds, and Access Centers to prevent homelessness and meet emergency shelter needs. Additionally, transitional housing needs programs are funded through the Supportive Housing Program, and Community Voice Mail boxes help people make the transition to permanent and independent living. City of Baldwin Park XIII - 4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Strategic Plan Housing and Services Housing market characteristics having the greatest influence on the City's use of funds to support affordable housing are the average purchase price of home in Baldwin Park, the extremely low rental vacancy rate, and the lack of new multi- family rental construction. Based on these factors, funds have been targeted for home ownership program, rental assistance, and housing rehabilitation assistance for low -and moderate - income homeowners. Other factors that may influence future funding decisions are: ■ NIMBY, the "Not in My Back Yard" Syndrome, including stigma attached to housing of special needs populations. ■ Insufficient service capacity to address the needs of homeless, working poor and at -risk populations. ■ Changes in economic conditions that result in the addition, modification or termination of programs that are privately or publicly fi inded. D. Outcome Performance Measurement System On March 7, 2006, HUD issued a notice entitled, "Notice on Outcome Performance Measurement System for Community Planning and Development Formula Grants Programs." The notice requires that grantees implement HUD's Outcome Performance Measurement System (OPMS). The OPMS is intended to provide HUD and grantees with a standardized methodology to demonstrate the outcomes of the CDBG and HOME programs. The OPMS has three main components: Objectives, Outcomes, and Outcome Indicators. Each activity is assigned an objective and outcome. In addition, each activity will report on the outcome indicators throughout the year. Objectives There are three objectives that originate from the statutory purposes of the formula grant programs. They are as follows: ■ Creating a suitable living environment. In general, this objective relates to activities that are designed to benefit communities, families, or individuals by addressing issues in their living environment. ■ Provide decent affordable housing. The activities that typically would be found under this objective are designed to cover a wide range of housing possibilities under HOME and CDBG. This objective focuses on housing programs where the purpose of the program is to meet individual, family or community needs and not program where housing is an element of a larger effort (such as would be captured above under creating a suitable living environment). City of Baldwin Park XIII - 5 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Strategic Plan Creating economic opportunities. This objective applies to the types of activities related to economic development, commercial revitalization, or job creation. Outcomes There are three outcomes that reflect what the grantee seeks to achieve by the funded activity. The City associates the National Objectives to these Outcomes. The three outcomes and their associated national objectives are as follows: Availability /Accessibility. This outcome category applies to activities that benefit families and individuals. The national objectives that apply to this outcome are Low- and Moderate - Income Limited Clientele and Low- and Moderate - Income Jobs. Affordability. This outcome category applies to activities that create or maintain affordable housing. The national objective that applies to this outcome is Low - and Moderate- income Housing. Sustainability. This outcome applies to activities that improve neighborhoods or communities. The national objectives that apply to this outcome are Addressing Slums or Blight on an Area Basis, Addressing Slums and Blight on a Spot Basis, Serving a Low- and Moderate - income Area, and Urgent Need. In addition to the OPMS, the City must also ensure that its HUD - funded activities carried out under the Consolidated Plan, meets its 5 -year priorities and strategies. The City helps ensure that the Consolidated Plan activities meet these priorities and strategies as well as the OPMS objects and outcomes through a measurement system that quantifies achievement. E. Performance Evaluation System Baldwin Park's Consolidated Plan activities must meet one of the three national goals set by HUD for all but its administrative activities. As the lead entity for the Consolidated Plan, the City is responsible for ensuring the Consolidated Plan meets these three national goals. The City must also ensure that its HUD- funded activities carried out under the Consolidated Plan meet its 5 -year priorities and strategies. The next set of tables summarizes the City's 5 -year strategies and objectives in relation to the national goals for the Consolidated Plan. The City will update these tables in each year's Annual Action Plan and CAPER to reflect actions and accomplishments. Such updates will allow citizens and other organizations to track the City's performance. Objectives are measured by the proposed and actual accomplishments. See each year's Annual Action Plan for proposed measurements for each objective. The measurements for 2010 are listed here as an example. The City helps ensure that Consolidated Plan activities meet these goals, strategies, and objectives through a measurement system that quantifies achievement. City of Baldwin Park XIII - 6 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Strategic Plan Identified in the matrix are the following: the City of Baldwin Park Priority Need and 5 -Year strategy and Outcome /Objective statements. There are a total of nine (9) possible outcome /objective statements. However, the City uses the following six (6) and links it to the national objective as discussed above under Outcomes: • Accessibility for the purpose of creating suitable living environments • Accessibility for the purpose of providing decent affordable housing • Accessibility for the purpose of creating economic opportunities • Affordability for the purpose of creating decent affordable housing • Sustainability for the purpose of creating suitable living environments • Sustainability for the purpose of providing decent affordable housing The second component of the City's performance measurement system is a table in each year's Action Plan that contains measurable short -term objectives planned for the coming year along with the planned activities, unit of accomplishment, and the number of expected accomplishments upon completion of activities. The measurement system's third component is the Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS), a computer system that reports accomplishments and other information to HUD. During the program year, the City will enter its planned and actual accomplishments for each activity into IRIS. At the end of the program year, the City will run reports that summarize these accomplishments. The City will aggregate the actual number of accomplishments and enter them into Baldwin Park 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Priority Needs Five -Year Performance Measurement System Matrix. It will also update the accomplishment table published in the Annual Action Plan by entering actual units of accomplishment. The final component of City's performance measurement system is the CAPER. The City will publish these two tables in each year's CAPER to reflect its number of planned and actual accomplishments and how they relate to the long- and short - term objectives set in the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan. Such updates will allow HUD, the City's partners, citizens and others to track the City's performance City of Baldwin Park XIII - 7 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 z cri Q- C) C CO O (D z 'L O L.

Other Strategies The City must also develop strategies to carry out specific national Consolidated Plan objectives. These include strategies to: • Address impediments to fair housing; • Reduce lead -based paint hazards; • Move low- income persons to self- sufficiency (called an anti- poverty strategy in the regulations); • Address barriers to affordable housing; and ■ Monitor all projects and programs. Therefore, to address the national Consolidated Plan objectives, the City developed the following four additional strategies: 1. Work with the public, private, and nonprofit sectors to identify impediments to fair housing choice and develop strategies to overcome them. 2. Collaborate with State and local agencies, nonprofit groups, and the private sector to reduce housing - related lead -based paint hazards, especially for low - income families and children. 3. Support State and City efforts to move low- income persons to economic self - sufficiency. 4. Encourage collaboration among the organizations providing housing, community development, and economic development programs and services in the city. Although Consolidated Plan regulations require the City to carry out these other strategies during the years covered by the Consolidated Plan, they do not require it to The five -year Consolidated Plan also has other strategies detailed in the previous Needs Assessment sections, such as the: ■ Anti - poverty strategy; • Strategy to remove barriers to affordable housing; • Strategy to reduce lead -based paint hazards; • Fair housing strategies; • Strategy to promote for cooperation and coordination; and the ■ Strategy to remove gaps in the institutional structure. Measurable actions for each strategy are listed in each year's Annual Action Plan.

Monitoring Standards and Procedures A. Project Monitoring Monitoring of the City's contractors and subrecipient partners is not just a regulatory process or a fact - finding mission. Rather, it involves effective communication and cooperative, problem - solving relationships between the City and its contractors/ subrecipients. What is a Subrecipient? A subrecipient is an organization receiving CDBG and HOME funds from the City that implements eligible activities and is responsible for complying with the applicable program regulations. The City monitors all CDBG and HOME programs to ensure subrecipient compliance with the applicable program regulations. When HOME- funded Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO's) are funded, such CHDO's shall be recertified annually as a part of the subrecipient monitoring process. The review for recertification will include, among other things, a review of the Board of Directors, capability of current staff, review of financial statements and mission statements, review of past and current projects. Each subrecipient program requires a written agreement between the recipient (City) and the subrecipient. The requirements demand that the agreement remain in effect throughout the period that the subrecipient has control over funds. In addition, regulations prescribe the provisions that the agreement must contain. These provisions include a statement of work (description of work, budget, and time schedule); records and reports, program income, uniform administrative requirements, other program requirements such as fair housing, labor, displacement, employment opportunities, lead -based paint, debarred contractors, conflict of interest, restrictions for certain resident aliens (as described in 24 CFR Part 49); provisions for Community Housing Development Organizations, religious entities, the Architectural Barriers Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act. Project Monitoring Process When the City awards a grant, the City also develops an individual monitoring schedule for each subrecipient or contractor that includes the following elements: Desk monitoring Performance reports Annual onsite reviews These three items combine to provide a clear and timely picture of each contractor /subrecipient's progress. The following narrative explains each of these three items in more detail. City of Baldwin Park XIV - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Monitoring Standards and Procedures Desk Monitoring City staff reviews copies of case files to ensure complete and accurate documentation regarding the following items: ■ Client eligibility. • Property eligibility. • Appropriate funding levels for the activity. • Compliance with all program requirements (i.e. environmental review). Performance Reports In the subrecipient agreement, subrecipient agencies are required to submit performance reports to City staff in order for the City to periodically assess a project's progress and to better ensure timeliness. For capital improvement projects and public service grants, reports are required on a quarterly basis. Housing program reports are obtained based upon the specifics of a particular programs' operation. Annual Onsite Reviews As appropriate, the City also provides annual on -site project reviews to assess the capabilities of subrecipient / contractor staff and to review case files. Desk monitoring, performance reports and annual onsite reviews combine to provide a clear and timely picture of each sub - recipient's progress. For housing projects, the City has implemented additional monitoring procedures to ensure: ■ Consistency with the primary objective —not less than 70 percent of CDBG funds used during the program year must be for activities that benefit low - and moderate- income persons. ■ Compliance with the criteria of the most appropriate National Objective. Compliance with all other regulatory eligibility requirements for each activity. Compliance with the Consolidated Plan regulations regarding displacement. Compliance with all other applicable laws and program requirements. Production and accountability. City Staff's periodic evaluation of organizational and project performance. City of Baldwin Park XIV - 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Monitoring Standards and Procedures The City achieves success through: • Pre -award screening, risk assessment, and orientation. • Strong written agreements. • Performance standards and program objectives. • Defined monitoring visits for each subrecipient partner: quarterly, semi- annually, and /or annually. Monitoring Staff The City periodically reports on the progress of each project. Additionally, staff has the following monitoring duties: To oversee the planning and budgeting process to ensure that projects and programs are consistent with the Consolidated Plan's identified high- and possibly medium- priority objectives and grant requirements. Staff will also provide technical guidance regarding Affirmative Marketing and Fair Housing practices. To provide technical guidance with each subrecipient partner regarding: program structure, income requirements, and document compliance. Staff will review the City's monthly expenditure reports. At a minimum, staff will perform quarterly drawdowns in HUD's Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS) against the appropriate grant. For IDIS, staff will gather quarterly program statistical reports from the subrecipient partners and update all necessary fields from setup to completion of each project and activity. Regular updating and draws will ensure meeting the CDBG timeliness deadline and HOME's program year deadline. As needed, staff will perform environmental reviews and Davis Bacon monitoring. Staff re. e.vs the invoices (requests for reimbursement for costs Incurred against grants) from each subrecipient and ensure timeliness with expenditures. To provide technical guidance regarding all housing construction, demolition, and rehabilitation projects ensuring the correct number of units, timeliness in build -out, and approval of payments. For new construction, ensure compliance with all applicable local codes, ordinances, and zoning ordinances at the time of project completion. To provide monitoring orientation with all subrecipient partners and establish monitoring visits. The monitoring orientation includes the timing for monitoring visits. Subrecipient partners without problems or significant findings receive annual or bi- annual monitoring visits, while new subrecipients and subrecipients with significant problems or complex projects receive quarterly visits. City of Baldwin Park XIV - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Monitoring Standards and Procedures Community Based Organizations Community -Based Organizations (CBO's) are funded for a wide variety of CDBG and ESG- funded activities, especially public services. However, their experience and training in implementing these activities in compliance with applicable statutory and regulatory requirements vary widely. In addition, some projects are a one -time City effort while others are ongoing activities. Based on this diversity, the City has determined that some of these projects can represent the highest potential for risk, while others represent a very low risk. Therefore, completed projects will be candidates for the full range of monitoring tools. Ongoing CBO projects receive annual or bi- annual on -site monitoring visits. HOME - Assisted Activities As a condition of receiving HOME funds, recipients agree to maintain all HOME - assisted units as affordable housing and in compliance with Housing Quality Standards (HQS). A site visit is made to each development and multifamily rehabilitation project in order to conduct mandatory tenant file reviews and physical inspections. The greater of 10 units, or 10 percent of the total development units are inspected and tenant files reviewed. All sampling is performed randomly. Tenant file reviews consist of evaluating documentation. B. Risk Assessment To ensure the most efficient use of grant funds, the City conducts its project monitoring in a targeted manner consistent with HUD's recommended use of "risk analysis" to target monitoring resources in areas that will yield the most opportunities to influence the responsible and compliant expenditure of federal housing and community development assistance. Concurrent with the adoption of each Annual Action Plan, City staff prepares a comprehensive ivllonitor ing Plan and assigns one (1) Cf three (3� rick iextel designations to each activity, as follows: High Risk: High risk activities are those activities that pose the most risk of non- compliance with the CDBG and HOME regulations and the Uniform Administrative Requirements. Such activities include projects that are implemented by new or inexperienced staff, new or inexperienced subrecipients and subrecipients or staff that have received monitoring findings on projects in prior years. High risk activities receive the highest level of scrutiny and often will require the submittal of full supporting documentation with Invoices and on -site monitoring more than once per year. Moderate Risk: Moderate risk activities are those activities that pose an elevated risk of non - compliance with the CDBG and HOME regulations and the Uniform Administrative Requirements. Such activities include projects that are implemented by newer staff, new subrecipients that have demonstrated acceptable capacity. Staff or programs that received monitoring findings in the City of Baldwin Park XIV - 4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Monitoring Standards and Procedures prior year must be designated as "High Risk" activities and cannot be designated as "Moderate Risk." Moderate risk activities are those activities like capital improvement projects or limited- clientele public service activities requiring extensive supporting client documentation. Activities involving direct assistance to individuals or businesses are automatically considered "Moderate Risk" until the staff implementing such activities successfully passes an annual on -site monitoring review with no Findings and minimal observations. Low Risk: Low risk activities are those activities that pose very little risk of non- compliance with the CDBG and HOME regulations and the Uniform Administrative Requirements because these activities are implemented by experienced senior staff persons who have demonstrated expertise in the applicable program area. "Low Risk" activities are those continuing activities that did not receive monitoring findings in the prior year and whose implementing staff has not undergone significant change or turnover. . .. -. I I The City understands that monitoring the Consolidated Plan and the annual activities must be carried out regularly to ensure that statutory and regulatory requirements are met and that, where appropriate, information submitted to HUD is correct and complete. To ensure that the City's CDBG and HOME programs further Consolidated Plan goals, the City incorporates the Consolidated Plan's strategies, objectives, and activities into its work plan. The City's staff will measure and track the achievement of Consolidated Plan goals by the same standards used to evaluate all programs and activities. The City will appraise its diverse operations and controls and determine whether: risks are identified and reduced; acceptable policies and procedures are followed; established standards are met; resources are used efficiently and economically; and ultimately, its objectives are achieved. City staff prepares documentation and reports as required by HUD, including the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). Using a substantial citizen participation and consultation process, the CAPER describes each year's performance regarding Consolidated Plan strategies, objectives, actions, and projects Monitoring Strategy As the lead agency for the CDBG and HOME programs, the Housing Division is refining monitoring procedures to ensure that projects have measurable outcomes. This refinement will allow assessment of progress toward the specified goals and objectives of the projects, as well as ensuring long -term compliance with all applicable program regulations and statutes. The City will publish any proposed significant changes to monitoring standards and procedures in a future Annual Action Plan so that citizens and grant recipients may comment on those changes.

Leveraging A. Federal Resources Funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which operates in excess of 100 programs and a variety of other Federal sources are available to address the Consolidated Plan's priority needs, such as grants and other revenues that provide funding to Baldwin Park or other organizations within the City. 1. Homeless Programs — The Continuum of Care The Continuum of Care is a set of three competitive programs based on the law of the McKinney - Vento Homeless Assistance Act to address the problems of homelessness in a comprehensive manner in concert with other federal agencies. a. Supportive Housing Program (SHP) SHP helps develop housing and related supportive services for people moving from homelessness to independent living. Program funds help homeless people live in a stable place, increase their skills or income, and gain more control over the decisions that affect their lives. Eligible applicants include States, local governments, other government agencies (such as public housing agencies), private nonprofit organizations, and community mental health associations that are public nonprofit organizations. After HUD publishes a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for Continuum of Care Homeless Assistance in the Federal Register, applicants must submit specific information about a proposed project, along with their Continuum of Care application. Each application must include a certification that the project is consistent with the Consolidated Plan of the jurisdiction where each proposed project is found. b. Shelter Plus Care (S +C) Shelter Plus Care (S +C) provides rental assistance that, when combined with social services, provides supportive housing for homeless people with disabilities and their families. The program allows for a variety of housing choices such as group homes or individual units, coupled with a range of supportive services (funded by other sources). Grantees must match the rental assistance with supportive services that are at least equal in value to the amount of HUD's rental assistance. States, local governments, and public housing agencies may apply for Shelter Plus Care grants. Single Room Occupancy Program (SRO) The Single Room Occupancy (SRO) Program provides Section 8 rental assistance for moderate rehabilitation of buildings with SRO units- single- room dwellings, designed for the use of an individual, that often do not contain food City of Baldwin Park XV - 1 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Leveraging preparation or sanitary facilities. A public housing authority makes Section 8 rental assistance payments to the landlords for the homeless people who rent the rehabilitated units. SRO units are less expensive to rent than regular apartments, so they often serve as the only affordable housing option for many low- income individuals and homeless persons. Such units are in short supply, however, since they yield negligible profits for building owners. Public housing agencies and private nonprofit organizations may apply. Nonprofit organizations must subcontract with public housing agencies to administer the rental assistance. 2. Supportive Housing for the Elderly (Section 202): This competitive Federal program funds nonprofit organizations to develop housing designed to accommodate the special needs of elderly persons and provide a range of services tailored to their needs. Assistance is in the form of capital advances and rental assistance. Recipients can use the funds for acquisition, rehabilitation, new construction, rental assistance, and supportive services. Private nonprofit sponsors apply directly to HUD in response to a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) published in the Federal Register each fiscal year. Applications must be submitted to the Los Angeles HUD Field Office. Awards are usually announced in September. 3. HUD Assisted Living Conversion Program This program provides nonprofit owners of eligible developments with a grant to convert some or all of the dwelling units in the project into an assisted living home for the frail elderly. The state must license and regulate the assisted living home. This program provides funding for the physical costs of converting some or all of the units of an eligible development into an assisted living home, including the unit configuration, common and services space, and any necessary remodeling, consistent with HUD or state statute /regulations (whichever is more stringent). There must be sufficient community space to accommodate a central kitchen or dining facility, lounges, recreation, and other i lounges, recreation, � multiple -areas available to all residents of the project, or office /staff spaces. The owners either directly or through a third party must provide funding for the supportive services. Only private nonprofit owners of Section 202, Section 8 project -based housing developments that are designated primarily for occupancy by the elderly for at least five years are eligible for funding. A private nonprofit of an unused /underutilized commercial property is also eligible. For more information, contact the Los Angeles HUD Office. 4. Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities (Section 811): This competitive Federal program funds nonprofit organizations to develop housing designed to accommodate the special needs of persons with disabilities. It also provides supportive services that address the individual health and other needs of such persons. Houses may be group homes, independent living facilities, or City of Baldwin Park XV - 2 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Leveraging intermediate care facilities. Assistance is in the form of capital advances and rental assistance. A set -aside exists under this program for persons disabled due to HIV. Eligible applicants are private nonprofit organizations. Private nonprofit sponsors apply directly to HUD in response to a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) published in the Federal Register each fiscal year. Applications must be submitted to the Los Angeles HUD field office. Awards are usually announced in September. 5. Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA): This program provides both entitlement and competitive grants for housing assistance and supportive services for low - income persons with AIDS and related diseases. It can be used for acquisition, rehabilitation, conversion, lease, repair of facilities, new construction, project -based or tenant -based rental assistance, planning, support services, operating costs, short -term payments (rent, mortgage, utility), and administrative expenses. 6. HUD Service Coordinators in Multi- Family Housing: The purpose of this Service Coordinator program is to allow non- profit multifamily housing owners to assist elderly individuals and people with disabilities living in HUD- assisted housing and in the surrounding area to obtain needed supportive services from the community, in order to enable them to continue living as independently as possible in their own homes. Eligible programs include HUD Sec. 202, 221/236, and Section 8: Project -based assistance. The number of units in the property and a 1:5 staffing ratio determines the maximum grant. Service Coordinator grants are awarded competitively each year, with priority going to Assisted Living Conversion Program sites. For more information, contact the Los Angeles HUD Office. 7. Emergency Food and Shelter Program: T. ie Emergency Food and Shelter Program i � uses f ui ids from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) that are administered locally through the United Way, is another source of Federal formula funds that are awarded annually to "local boards" to aid the homeless. With the exception of major shelter development, the eligible activities for this program are essentially the same as ESG (i.e. essential services, shelter operating support and homeless prevention.) 8. Low- Income Housing Preservation Program: This competitive program provides financial incentives to retain subsidized housing projects when Federal assistance is expiring. The owner may apply for incentives or sell to another entity that will maintain low- income affordability restrictions. City of Baldwin Park XV - 3 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Leveraging 9. VA Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem The Veteran's Administration's Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program is offered annually, as funding permits, by the Department of Veterans Affairs Health Care for Homeless Veterans Programs to fund community agencies providing services to homeless veterans. The purpose is to promote the development and provision of supportive housing and /or supportive services with the goal of helping homeless veterans achieve residential stability, increase their skill levels and /or income, and obtain greater self - determination. Only programs with supportive housing (up to 24 months) or service centers (offering services such as case management, education, crisis intervention, counseling, etc.) are eligible for these funds. The program has two levels of funding: the Grant portion and the Per Diem portion. Currently grants of up to 65 percent of the project are awarded for the construction, acquisition, or renovation of facilities or to purchase vans to provide outreach and services to veterans. The program may provide partial operating funds for programs through per diem payments. Priority in awarding the Per Diem funds goes to the recipients of Grants. Non -Grant programs may qualify if they meet these criteria: (1) at least 75 percent of those receiving supportive services are veterans, and (2) provide supportive housing or a homeless service center. 10. Lead -Based Paint Abatement Program: This program provides competitive grants to State and local governments for the development of cost effective community strategies for lead -based paint abatement. Recipients may use the funds for rehabilitation, planning and operating costs. Funding match is required for this program. 11. Surplus Housing to Assist the Homeless: This program leases suitable Federal properties, rent free, to organizations serving the homeless. The organizations must pay operating and any rehabilitation and /or renovation costs. 12. Section 108 Loan Guarantee (Section 108): Through Section 108, HUD guarantees notes issued by units of general local government. Funds finance economic revitalization and development activities that include housing and rehabilitation of privately owned buildings for residential purposes; expansion of for - profit businesses; financing and rehabilitation of low - income and public housing; acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation of neighbor -hood and community facilities; site improvement on community -owned land leased to a developer for a commercial or industrial development project; site development; purchase of land or buildings for economic development; and infrastructure development that includes street reconstruction and /or sewer system repairs. City of Baldwin Park XV - 4 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 13. Community Services Block Grant (CSBG): Leveraging This program can fund activities to implement anti - poverty activities such as housing counseling, emergency assistance and other supportive services. 14. Youthbuild: This program provides assistance for activities and services to assist economically disadvantaged youth to obtain education and employment skills and to expand the supply of permanent affordable housing. It may be used for planning grants or implementation grants that may be used for architectural and engineering work, acquisition, rehabilitation, construction, relocation, administrative costs, and education and job training services. Activities may also include counseling, leadership skill development, support services, wages, stipends and benefits to participants, operating expenses, replacement reserves, legal fees, and training and technical assistance for the applicant. 15. Community Outreach Partnership Center (COPC) Program: This HUD program provides funding for universities to become more involved in community development activities. 16. Department of Energy: The U.S. Department of Energy ( USDOE) provides funds to carry out weatherization and energy assistance programs for low- income homeowners and tenants. In 2009, USDOE entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with HUD to streamline the weatherization of homes and businesses to promote greater energy efficiency and to save low- and moderate - income homeowners money on monthly utility bills to ease economic pressures on such households. Key elements of the agreement include streamlining the income qualification requirements and standardizing the weatherization and energy efficiency standards used in i� HUD housing programs to match those recommended by USDOE. 17. Brownfields Economic Development Initiative (BEDI) Grants: BEDI grants target Economic Development Initiative funds to brownfields projects. BEDI grants are made to local governments for use in supporting brownfield redevelopment activities and projects financed in whole or in part with Section 108 loan guarantees. 18. Economic Development Initiative (EDI): The Economic Development Initiative provides grants to be used in tandem with Section 108 guaranteed loans for economic revitalization projects. These grants will enhance the viability of such projects (through interest rate subsidies and debt City of Baldwin Park XV - 5 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Leveraging service /operating reserves) and increase the likelihood that the Section 108 loans can be repaid from project revenue. 19. HOPE VI (Public Housing Revitalization) The HOPE VI (Public Housing Revitalization) Program was developed as a result of the National Commission on Severely Distressed Public Housing. The Commission recommended revitalization in three general areas: physical improvements, management improvements, and social and community services to address resident needs. Any public housing authority (PHA) that operates public housing units with severe problems -such as crime, maintenance, and safety problems is eligible to apply for HOPE VI. HOPE VI permits expenditures for the capital costs of demolition, construction, rehabilitation and other physical improvements, development of replacement housing, planning and technical assistance, and planning and implementation of self- sufficiency programs. It encourages PHAs to seek new partnerships with private entities to create mixed-finance and mixed - income affordable housing that is radically different from traditional public housing "projects." PHAs administer the program, and can use the grants in conjunction with modernization funds or other HUD funds, as well as municipal and State contribution, public and private loans, and low- income tax credit equity. While most of the funds are to be used for capital costs, a limited amount may be used for self- sufficiency programs. Appropriations are distributed through an annual national competition. PHAs respond to a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) published in the Federal Register by submitting an application to HUD. Each year's NOFA and application kit are automatically mailed to each eligible PHA upon publication. 20. Federal Tax Credit and Tax Exempt Programs The U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service oversees several useful and important Federal housing and related programs. Most of these programs are administered by State agencies. a. Low Income Housing Tax Credits The Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program (LIHTC) is an Internal Revenue Service program (IRC Section 42) that provides federal income tax credits to owners of rental housing where a number of units are set - aside for low and moderate - income families. The California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC) administers the Federal, as well as a State, Low - Income Housing Tax Credit Program (see State programs for a discussion of the State Low- Income Housing Tax Credit Program. Under the Program, owners "sell" the tax credit to investors and use the proceeds to support the development cost of the project. Developments that are financed with the proceeds of tax - exempt bonds may also receive federal tax credit (See Tax - Exempt Private Activity Bond Program). In this instance, the developer /owner of a tax - exempt development must apply to TCAC and must conform to the federal and City of Baldwin Park XV - 6 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Leveraging state statutory and regulatory requirements, but there is no annual "cap" on the amount of credit that may be awarded by the state to such developments. The credit available is based on approximately 4% (instead of 9 %) of the "qualified basis" of the development. b. Tax - Exempt Private Activity Bond Program The Tax Exempt Private Activity Bond Program is an Internal Revenue Service program (IRC Section 146) that permits the issuance of tax - exempt bonds to finance certain activities, including single- and multi - family housing development and rehabilitation. The California Debt Limit Allocation Committee (CDLAC) administers Tax Exempt Private Activity Bond Program in California. c. Federal Rehabilitation Tax Credit (a /k /a Historic Tax Credit) The Rehabilitation Tax Credit is a two - tiered program, because there are two tax credit rates based on the status or age of the buildings. The 20% credit is available for income- producing buildings that are considered certified historic structures (Historic Tax Credit). Federal historic tax credits are available for buildings listed in the National Register of Historic Places or located in certain historic districts that are substantially rehabilitated for income - producing purposes according to standards set by the Secretary of the Interior. The 10% credit is available for non - residential income producing buildings originally used before 1936, which are not certified historic structures. Consequently, the two credits are mutually exclusive. d. Federal New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) Program The New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) Program, which is administered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI), permits taxpayers to receive a credit against Federal income taxes for making qualified equity investments in designated Community Development Entities (CDEs). Substantially all of the qualified equity investment must in turn be used by the CDE to provide investments in low- income communities. The credit provided to the investor totals 39% of the cost of the investment and is claimed over a seven -year credit allowance period. In each of the first three years, the investor receives a credit equal to five percent of the total amount paid for the stock or capital interest at the time of purchase. For the final four years, the value of the credit is six percent annually. Investors may not redeem their investments in CDEs prior to the conclusion of the seven -year period. NMTCs will be allocated annually by the Fund to CDEs under a competitive application process. These CDEs will then sell the credits to taxable investors in exchange for stock or a capital interest in the CDEs. To qualify as a CDE, an entity must be a domestic corporation or partnership that: 1) has a mission of serving, or providing investment capital for, low- income communities or low- income persons; 2) maintains accountability to residents of low- income communities through their City of Baldwin Park XV - 7 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Leveraging representation on a governing board of or advisory board to the entity; and 3) has been certified as a CDE by the CDFI Fund. The Fund is currently accepting applications from entities seeking CDE certification. A listing of current CDEs may be found at http : / /www.cdfi.org /resource.asp. 21. Public Works and Development Facilities Program: Grants are provided to help distressed communities attract new industries, encourage business expansion, diversify local economies, and generate long- term, private- sector jobs. Projects funded include water and sewer facilities primarily serving industry and commerce, access roads to industrial parks or sites, port improvements, and business incubator facilities.

The grants are used to purchase computer equipment and software, train staff and users, and provide connections to the Internet. Funds also support evaluation and dissemination of project findings. 24. Housing Preservation Grant Program: This program also makes available funds to repair housing. Non - profits receive grants and they in turn make funds available to homeowners that cannot afford to make needed repairs. 25. Multifamily Housing and Health Care Facilities Mortgage Insurance Programs: The Federal Housing Administration (FHA), part of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), provides mortgage insurance programs that make capital available for, and facilitate the development of, multifamily rental housing and healthcare facilities. FHA insures loans that are City of Baldwin Park XV - 8 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Leveraging originated by private, HUD - approved lenders.

California Office of the Treasurer Programs The Officer of the Treasurer oversees several important program initiatives available to address the Consolidated Plan's priority needs. a. Low Income Housing Tax Credits As previously noted (See Federal Programs Tax Credit and Tax Exempt Bond Programs), the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC) administers a Federal and State Low - Income Housing Tax Credit Program. The Federal Program is an Internal Revenue Service program (Section 42) that provides federal income tax credits to owners of rental housing where a number of units are set -aside for low and moderate - income families. Owners "sell" the credit to investors and use the funds to support the development cost of the project. Developments that are financed with the proceeds of tax - exempt bonds may also receive federal tax credit (See Tax- Exempt Private Activity Bond Program). In this instance, the developer /owner of a tax - exempt development must apply to TCAC and must conform to the federal and state statutory and regulatory requirements, but there is no annual "cap" on the amount of credit that may be awarded by the state to such developments. The credit available is based on approximately 4% (instead of 9 %) of the "qualified basis" of the development. Recognizing the high cost of developing housing in California, the State legislature authorized a state low income housing tax credit program ( "Mate PI ogr am ") to augment the Federal Pr ogr am. The State credit is only available to a project which has previously received, or is concurrently receiving, an allocation of federal credits. The state program does not stand alone, but instead, supplements the federal tax credit program. California's tax credit program was structured to mirror the federal program with certain exceptions. In addition to the state credit only being available to projects that also receive a federal credit, other major differences include: TCAC gives priority for state credit allocations to projects not located in a designated high cost area and those using HOME funds to finance eligible costs. The applicable percentage to be applied to the qualified basis for determining the amount of state credits is 30% for projects which are not federally subsidized, and 13% for projects which are federally subsidized, in contrast to 9% and 4% for the federal credit. City of Baldwin Park XV - 14 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Leveraging State credits are not available for acquisition costs, except for already assisted projects that qualify as "at- risk" of being converted to market rate. The State program has a rate of return limitation. Any surplus revenues generated above the limitation must be used to reduce rents. Additional information and regulations for both the Federal and State Programs may be found at http : / /www.treasurer.ca.gov /ctcac. b. Tax - Exempt Private Activity Bond Program The California Debt Limit Allocation Committee (CDLAC) administers the tax - exempt private activity bond program available annually for California. Federal and state revenues are not utilized in this program. The maximum issuance amount, which is set by the Federal government, for calendar year 2010 was over $3.2 billion. The bonds issued are purchased by the private sector and the repayment is not an obligation of the state or of the federal government. Agencies and organizations authorized to issue tax - exempt private activity bonds or mortgage credit certificates must receive an allocation from CDLAC. For additional information on the bond allocation process, visit http: / /www.treasurer.ca. gov /cdlac. Three of the six programs tax - exempt private activity bond programs may be used for housing activities. The three housing programs are: Qualified Residential Rental Project Program State and local governmental agencies and joint powers authorities can issue tax - exempt housing revenue bonds. These bonds assist developers of multifamily rental housing units to acquire land and construct new units or purchase and rehabilitate existing units. The tax - exempt bonds lower the interest rate paid by the developers. The developers in turn produce market rate and affordable rental housing for low and very low- income households by reducing rental rates to these individuals and families. Projects that receive an award of bond authority have the right to apply for non- competitive 4% tax credits. See Low Income Housing Tax Credits. Bond authority for Rental Projects is awarded in three allocation rounds and to three sub - pools: the General Pool (Projects having more than 50% of total units designated as Restricted Rental Units); the Mixed Income Pool (Projects having 50% or fewer of total units designated as Restricted Rental Units); and the Rural Project Pool (Projects located in a rural area as defined by California Health and Safety Code Section 50199.21 but shall not include a Mixed Income Project). Single - Family Housing Program State and local governmental agencies and joint powers authorities can issue tax - exempt mortgage revenue bonds (MRBs) or mortgage credit certificates (MCCs) to assist first -time homebuyers to purchase homes. City of Baldwin Park XV - 15 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan Draft 03/25/10 Leveraging These agencies and authorities may issue MRBs, the proceeds of, which back below market interest rate mortgages. As an alternative to issuing MRBs, state and local governmental agencies and joint powers authorities may issue MCCs. Homebuyers use the MCC to reduce their federal tax liability by applying the credit to their net tax due. Homebuyers may purchase single - family homes, either freestanding detached, condominiums or townhouses. Program participants must meet program income limits and must purchase a home that falls within the program's purchase price limitations. Extra Credit Home Purchase Program State and local governmental agencies and joint powers authorities can issue tax - exempt mortgage revenue bonds (MRBs) or mortgage credit certificates (MCCs) to assist teachers, principals and other credentialed school staff purchase homes. These agencies and authorities may issue MRBs, the proceeds of which back below market interest rate mortgages. As an alternative to issuing MRBs, state and local governmental agencies and joint powers authorities may issue MCCs. Homebuyers use the MCC to reduce their federal tax liability by applying the credit to their net tax due. Homebuyers may purchase single- family homes, freestanding detached homes, condominiums or townhouses. Participants must be employed at a low- performing school (a California K -12 public school that is ranked in the bottom 50% of all the schools based on the most recent Academic Performance Index (API), i.e. schools receiving an API Statewide Ranking of 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5) and make a commitment to work at a low performing school for at least three years. In addition, Program participants must meet program income limits and must purchase a home that falls within the program's purchase price limitations. C.

EDI accomplishes this by providing grants to local governments to be used in conjunction with Section 108 loan guarantees. A locality may use the grant to provide additional security for the loan (for example, as a loss reserve), thereby reducing the exposure of its CDBG funds (which by law must be pledged as security for the loan guarantees). A locality may also use the EDI grant to pay for costs associated with the project, thereby enhancing the feasibility of the 108 - assisted portion of the project. EDI- funded projects must meet one of the CDBG program's national objectives.

Executive Summary As a designated entitlement jurisdiction, the City of Baldwin Park annually receives federal funding designated to assist in the development of viable communities by supporting projects that provide decent housing, sustain suitable living environments, and expand economic opportunities primarily for low- and moderate - income persons. The City is required to develop an Annual Action Plan for the use of these funds which serves as the means to meet the application and submission requirements for two (2) entitlement formula programs: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME). This Annual Action Plan outlines the activities which will be undertaken during the program year beginning July 1, 2010 and ending June 30, 2011. Programs and activities described in this plan are intended to primarily benefit low- income and moderate - income residents of the City of Baldwin Park, neighborhoods with high concentrations of low -- income and moderate - income residents, and the city as a whole. This plan is the product of extensive public outreach, consistent with the City of Baldwin Park's 2010 -2014 Five -Year Consolidated Plan. This public participation has included multiple public hearings, and consultation with agencies, groups, and organizations involved in the development of affordable housing, and providing a suitable living environment for low- income and moderate - income residents, and /or provision of services to children, elderly persons, persons with disabilities, and homeless persons. A complete draft of this plan has been made available for public review and comment for a 30 day period beginning April 5, 2010. The availability of both the draft plan and the final plan is advertised in the local newspaper and the complete documents are available for review on the City's website (www.baidwinpark.com) and in print form at the Housing Department, the Baldwin Park Library, and the Office of the City Clerk. 1.

Performance and Outcome Measurement HUD has encouraged grantees to incorporate performance based standards in project selection and contracting with consolidated plan funds. As a result, for the 2010 -2011 program year the City will focus on outcome accomplishments rather than output accomplishments. All reimbursement requests will still require documentation as proscribed in the appropriate Federal regulations and City policies. 6. Summary of Objectives and Outcomes Consolidated funds for the 2010 -2011 program year will be allocated among the following nationally reportable outcomes, which have been established by HUD: SL -1: Availability /Accessibility of Suitable Living Environment SL -1.1 Decrease crime in neighborhoods and communities • Baldwin Park Police Department Pride Platoon SL -1.1 Support a continuum of services in support of the City's and County's effort to end homeless • ESGV Coalition for the Homeless SL -1.3 Provide access to local public facilities that contribute to community and neighborhood development • Morgan Park Parking Lot and Playground Surface First Program Year Action Plan 5 City of Baldwin Park SL -1.4 Provide youth with appropriate health, recreational, educational, and other services that help them to develop into well - rounded, well - adjusted and independent adults • Childcare Subsidy Program • Recreation /Sports Scholarship Program SL -1.5 Provide quality supportive services so elderly residents can live as independently as possible • Santa Anita Family Service • Recreation /Sports Scholarship Program SL -1.6 Help persons with special needs live as independently as possible • Barnes Park ADA Improvement Project • Redeemer Food Bank • Domestic Violence Advocate SL -1.7 Contribute to the well -being of individuals, families, and neighborhoods • Family Service Center • Project Sister • Saint John the Baptist Church Citizenship Classes SL -3: Sustainability of Suitable Living Environment SL -3.1 Decrease crime in neighborhoods and communities • Graffiti Removal SL -3.2 Encourage the continued maintenance and improvements of infrastructure • Street Improvement Project SL -3.3 Prevent and arrest the decline of the physical conditions of neighborhoods and communities • Code Enforcement Program EO -1: Availability /Accessibility of Economic Opportunity EO -1.1 Provide youth with appropriate health, recreational, educational, and other services that help them to develop into well- rounded, well - adjusted and independent adults • Youth Employment Program EO- 1.2Stimulate Business investment and job development to build vibrant, self - sustaining communities • Section 108 Loan Repayment - Economic Development DH -1: Availability /Accessibility of Decent Housing First Program Year Action Plan 6 City of Baldwin Park DH -1.1 Preserve and improve the existing housing stock and ensure equal access • Home Improvement Residential Loan Program • Rehabilitation Grant Program • Rehabilitation Administration • Lead Testing Program • Lead Abatement Program • Fair Housing Services DH -2: Affordability of Decent Housing DH -2.1 Expand the supply of affordable rental and homeownership housing opportunities • First Time Homebuyer Program • Acquisition /Rehab /Development of Multi - Family Housing DH -2.2 Preserve and improve the existing housing stock and ensure equal access • Section 8 Rental Housing Program • Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program DH -3: Sustainabiiity of Decent Housing DH -1.1 Preserve and improve the existing housing stock and ensure equal access 7. Evaluation of Past Performance In October 2009, The City completed the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report for the 2008 -2009 program year. The goals and objectives for the reporting period were based on priority needs identified in the 2005 -2010 Five -Year Consolidated Plan. More than 25 activities were funded during the 2008 -2009 program year. The collective impact of these activities resulted in substantial improvements to the lives and neighborhoods of the City's low -and moderate - income residents and persons. The City is on target to meet its Five -Year Goals as established under the 2005 -2010 Consolidated Plan. During the 2008 -09 program year, measurable progress was made on the majority of the five -year goals established in the 2005 -2009 Consolidated Plan. Delays were encountered on some capital improvement projects, making it difficult to complete the activity and report total accomplishments by the close of the program year. These projects are typically completed in subsequent program years. B. General Questions First Program Year Action Plan 7 City of Baldwin Park Describe the geographic areas of the jurisdiction (including areas of low income families and /or racial /minority concentration) in which assistance will be directed during the next year. Where appropriate, the jurisdiction should estimate the percentage of funds the jurisdiction plans to dedicate to target areas. According to the 2006 -2008 American Community Survey (ACS) estimate, there are 77,089 people living in the City. There are a total of 18,090 housing units within the City. The racial makeup of the City is 29.7 percent White, 1.1 percent African American, 0.9 percent American Indian and Alaska Native, 12.4 percent Asian, 0.1 percent Pacific Islander, 54.0 percent from other races, and 1.8 percent from two (2) or more races. Ethnically, Hispanic or Latino of any race makes up 80.3 percent of the population. The majority of the general priorities in the Strategic Plan are focused on meeting the housing and community development needs of low- and moderate - income households and neighborhoods throughout the City. This includes the CDBG Benefit Service Areas (commonly referred to as CDBG Target Areas) which is made up of census tracts /block groups that are comprised of predominantly (at least 51%) low- and moderate income residents (csee Table 10) Table 9: Low and Moderate Income Census Tracts /Block Groups i� llylali � i 11 l �r61fi� it llll� l 111; Iii s ^ � rl i r�slill�i� 4�, llilsiil iilip � i 1,1, illllird �y; 2. Describe the basis for allocating investments geographically within the jurisdiction (or within the EMSA for HOPWA) (91.215(a)(1)) during the next year and the rationale for assigning the priorities.

Describe the basis for allocating investments geographically within the jurisdiction (or within the EMSA for HOPWA) (91.215(a)(1)) during the next year and the rationale for assigning the priorities. Because the primary national objectives of the Consolidated Plan programs are to benefit low- income and moderate - income residents, the City's CDBG program funds will First Program Year Action Plan 8 City of Baldwin Park be targeted to low- income and moderate - income neighborhoods and activities that benefit the City as a whole, the majority of whose residents are low- and moderate - income. The map below (Map 1) illustrates the areas where Consolidated Plan activities will occur within the City during the 2009 -2010 Program Year (CDBG Target Area). CDBG Target Areas are defined as geographic locations within the City boundaries where 51% or more of the households residing in those areas are low- to moderate - income. Based on the 2000 Census, 49% (20 of 41) of the census tracts in the City qualify as CDBG Target Areas. Activities, such as housing rehabilitation or infrastructure improvements, which will involve scattered sites, are not shown. The City proposes to utilize its funding for fiscal year 2010 -2011 to finance a variety of housing, community development, and capital improvement projects. The majority of the - funding will be used to finance projects targeting low- and moderate- income individuals and families throughout the City including those in special needs categories such as elderly persons, and homeless persons. Based on Census 2000 data, 49.68 percent of the population in the City of Baldwin Park is identified as low- and moderate - income households. The plan for geographic distribution of resources and projects identified as serving an area benefit is based in part one the geographic distribution of low- a� �d � � Moderate- income households throughout the City. The following map (Map 1) shows the low- and moderate - income areas (CDBG Target Areas). First Program Year Action Plan 9 City of Baldwin Park Map 1: CDBG Target Area Map First Program Year Action Plan 10 City of Baldwin Park 3. Describe actions that will take place during the next year to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. During the 2010 -2011 Program Year, the City will continue to support nonprofit agencies, the Baldwin Park Housing Authority, homeless providers, and special needs groups in their goal to meet the underserved persons of the community. The City will partner with over half dozen non - profit service providers as well as the Recreation and Community Services Department, and Police Department to provide $244,563 in CDBG funds to support public service projects including anti -crime program, youth activities, graffiti removal, rape and sexual assault program, and domestic violence, support services for seniors, homeless services and fair housing assistance. The City will utilize $1,380,000 in CDBG funding for capital improvement projects in low - income neighborhoods including improvements to park facilities, street improvements, ADA accessibility improvements and residential rehabilitation activities serving targeted populations. In addition, the City's Housing staff will work with local Certified Housing Development Organizations (CHDOs) to complete the acquisition /rehabilitation /development of a new multi - family project. The City will continue to allocate HOME funding to provide tenant -based rental assistance to homeless individuals and those at -risk of becoming homeless; provide rehabilitation loans and grants for low income owner occupied households to address health and safety issues The City will continue to communicate with these groups as their needs change or the demand dramatically increases over the next year. The City will provide technical assistance to providers in the pursuit of Federal, State, and other funding sources. The primary obstacle to meeting underserved needs of low- income and moderate- - income populations continues to be the availability of funds. Organizations serving these populations continue to experience significant reductions in funding from both governmental and private sources. Reductions in State aid to the City and the local budget have prohibited the City from being able to cover this funding gap, leaving many worthy and valuable programs unfunded or underfunded. This challenge is beyond the capacity of the local jurisdiction to satisfactorily address. 4. Identify the federal, state, and local resources expected to be made available to address the needs identified in the plan. Federal resources should include Section 8 funds made available to the jurisdiction, Low - Income Housing Tax Credits, and competitive McKinney -Vento Homeless Assistance Act funds expected to be available to address priority needs and specific objectives identified in the strategic plan. The federal, state and local resources expected to be available in fiscal year 2010 -2011 to carry out projects and activities identified in the Annual Action Plan include: Federal Source: Amount State and Local Sources: Amount CDBG $1,600,420 RDA 20% Housing Funds $10,400,000 (anticipated tax increment) HOME $536,750 CaIHOME $850,000 FEDERAL TOTAL $2,137,170 STATE AND LOCAL TOTAL $26,702,103 TOTAL FUNDING RESOURCES $34,957,181', First Program Year Action Plan 11 City of Baldwin Park C. Managing the Process 1. Identify the lead agency, entity, and agencies responsible for administering programs covered by the consolidated plan. The Housing Department provides oversight and management of these federal programs for the City and is responsible for the preparation of the Consolidated Plan, the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER), and the Annual Action Plan. The Department works in concert with other jurisdictions, internal city departments, municipal agencies, public service groups, and residents to plan and carry out the activities proposed each year in the Annual Action Plan. 2. Identify the significant aspects of the process by which the plan was developed, and the agencies, groups, organizations, and others who participated in the process. The Annual Action Plan encompasses an application process whereby organizations, such as City departments, nonprofit social service agencies, and private for - profit businesses have the opportunity to submit proposals to fund projects that will eventually define the City's Annual Action Plan. The primary objective of the CDBO and HOME programs is to provide decent housing and a suitable living environment with expanding economic opportunities principally for low- income and moderate - income persons. The Housing Department staff conducted extensive outreach to engage a wide range of agencies, groups, organizations, and residents in the process of developing the Action Plan. This process included: a. A public application process for community -based organizations to apply for project funding in program year 2010 -2011; b. Discussions with several city departments to help identify eligible projects for the coming program year; c. Meetings with other departments to identify potential housing projects for the coming year; d. Publlc meeting to present the strategies for tl �e next years as n.^,ted in the 2010 -2011 Consolidated Plan; e. Public meeting to allow public service agencies and stakeholder to present their applications and their programs; f. A Public Hearing conducted on May 7, 2010 to receive public testimony on the proposed Annual Action Plan. 3. Describe actions that will take place during the next year to enhance coordination between public and private housing, health, and social service agencies. The City continues to work in consultation and coordination with a wide -range of public and private agencies, local jurisdictions, housing developers and providers, social service agencies, and community residents in the development and implementation of strategies identified in this Plan. In particular, the Housing Department staff regularly attends regional meetings and works on a continual basis with the City's Housing Authority and many others to coordinate joint efforts relating to homeless issues, First Prograrn Year Action Plan 12 City of Baldwin Park affordable housing needs and conditions, special need populations, and community development activities. D. Citizen Participation 1. Provide a summary of the citizen participation process. As required by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Rules and Regulations, the City complies with regulation 24 CFR 91.105, Citizen Participation Plan for local governments as outlined. The City has adopted a citizen's participation plan that sets forth the City's policies and procedures for citizen participation. A complete copy of this Citizen Participation Plan may be found at the Housing Department. During the preparation of the 2010 -2011 One -Year Action Plan, the City of Baldwin Park solicited widespread public participation and input through surveys, workshops, community meetings, and public hearings.

Provide a summary of efforts made to broaden public participation in the development of the consolidated plan, including outreach to minorities and non - English speaking persons, as well as persons with disabilities. The components of the citizen participation plan discussed above have been designed with the explicit intention of accommodating and encouraging participation by low- and moderate- income residents, residents of low- and moderate - income neighborhoods, First Program Year Action Plan 13 City of Baldwin Park members of minority groups, persons with limited English skills, and persons with disabilities. In addition to these efforts, the City is adopting the Five -Year Consolidated Plan. The plan was guided in large part by the results of an extensive public opinion research process. This process included a survey conducted in Spanish and English. The results of the outreach played a primary role in the development of the Consolidated Plan. Plan development consultations in conjunction with the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan planning process included specific targeted outreach to service providers, subrecipients involved in the delivery of eligible program activities to eligible populations. These consultations involved the active participation of members of minority groups, low - income and moderate - income individuals, persons with limited English skills, and individuals with disabilities. The City also conducted extensive outreach to inform local agencies regarding the opportunity to apply for CDBG funds. Outreach included a public notice for availability of funding, a letter mailed to each interested agency, and technical assistance to aid those public service agencies with application preparation. Finally, the City reviewed its compliance with Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity requirements as part of its update to the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice. Publishing the Plan for Public Review and Comment The 2010 -2011 Action Plan was made available for public review and comment for a 30- day period beginning April 5, 2010 through May 5, 2010.

Institutional Structure Describe actions that will take place during the next year to develop institutional structure. The Housing Department of the City of Baldwin Park is responsible for the administration - of the two entitlement grants (CDBG and HOME). The Housing Department has staff that is specifically responsible for the administration, implementation, and the monitoring of programs funded with these sources. In conjunction with other City departments, such as Public Works, Park, Recreation and Community Services, and Community Development, staff will continue to identify the community's greatest needs and allocate resources accordingly. Housing staff will continue to work with for - profit and non - profit developers and lenders to facilitate the improvement, preservation, and /or creation of affordable housing opportunities for low- to moderate - income households within the City. Furthermore, the City will continue to work on coordinating activities with Los Angeles County agencies such as the Department of Public Social Services and the Department of Mental Health, to continue to meet the needs of the City's special needs populations by providing services and affordable housing opportunities. In addition, the City will continue to improve internal processes regarding the allocation and administration of all federal and state ftinderl nrngr ams by identifying structural gaps and enhancing protocols to allow for greater accuracy in reporting and monitoring. Internally, Housing staff will continue to enhance project coordination by utilizing Memorandums of Understanding (MOU) between the Department and other City departments responsible for administering HUD funded projects. This will continue to establish more communication, coordination and greater accountability on city administered projects. 1. Describe actions that will take place during the next year to monitor its housing and community development projects and ensure long -term compliance with program requirements and comprehensive planning requirements. First Program Year Action Plan 15 City of Baldwin Park Recipient Monitoring In order for the City to monitor itself, the Housing Department, the agency charged with administering and implementing the Annual Action Plan, has developed an internal management plan to assure the proper and timely implementation of the strategic plan and the annual plan. Procedures have been put in place to assure proper compliance with all program requirements for the CDBG and HOME entitlements. Since the CAPER is not completed until September of each year, an analysis of the comparison of the achievements of the recently completed program year cannot be measured against the goals identified in the strategic plan until that time. Most adjustments to the annual plan must be made every other year to try to meet the stated goals of the five -year strategic plan. The Housing Division also monitors the amount of available funding utilizing the IDIS and the City's accounting system to assure that uncommitted and expended funding does not exceed allowable HUD- recommended levels. Sub - Recipient Monitoring The City of Baldwin Park's Housing Department is responsible for oversight of all designated sub - recipients of CDBG and HOME funds and will perform the following tasks: • Distinguish between sub- recipients, contractors, and other entities, • Execute written agreements containing all required elements before providing • funds to sub - recipients, • Periodically review sub - recipients in order to determine that program requirements are being met; and • Take effective corrective and remedial actions toward sub - recipients who do not comply. A ,J L., r °.- .cipi°.nt Grant Monitoring policy had heen --- -lnp -- encN - that Cub_reCipi —.- comply with OMB Circular A -133 regulations as well as City policies and procedures. The City's Staff conduct program monitoring and audits of the Sub - Recipient's or Service Provider's records and facilities throughout the program year. The Housing Department's goal is to visit every sub - recipient each year, but due to time constraints and the volume of programs being funded, it is not always possible to do so. Therefore, by carefully examining sub - recipients' past performance, the Housing Department will conduct a risk assessment to identify which sub - recipients require a more comprehensive monitoring. High -risk sub - recipients might include: • Sub - Recipients new to the CDBG, HOME, ESG, or HOPWA programs; • Sub - Recipients that have experienced turnover in key staff positions or a change in goals or direction. • Sub - Recipients with previous compliance or performance problems including failure to meet schedules, submit timely reports, or clear monitoring or audit findings. • Sub - Recipients carrying out high -risk activities (such as economic development); and First Program Year Action Plan 16 City of Baldwin Park • Sub - Recipients undertaking multiple CDBG and HOME funded activities for the first time. As part of its monitoring responsibility, the City shall review the quarterly compliance reports, the annual single audit required of those Sub - Recipients or Service Providers subject to 24 CFR Part 44.6, and all financial information of the Sub - Recipients or Service Providers in order to conduct risk assessments, to ensure production and accountability, to ensure compliance with CDBG or HOME and any other federal requirements, and to evaluate their organizational and project performance. The monitoring activity and audits shall be by telephone, desk and /or an annual on -site visit as more fully set forth below. a.

Monitoring for HOME Projects and Programs: On rental projects, the City of Baldwin Park performs on -site inspections to determine compliance with property standards no less than once every three years for oroiects containing 1 to 4 units; once every two years for projects containing 5 to 25 units; and once per year for projects with 26 or more units. During the months of April staff reviews tenant's incomes via a self - certification process on an annual basis. During on -site inspection, housing staff reviews full tenant income verification. Staff also verifies that rents on HOME assisted units conform to current HOME rent limits. A Davis -Bacon compliance staff member oversees any projects that require Davis Bacon compliance. In addition, we have improved our process and bid documents to include all necessary information that must be included in a sub - recipient's contract for construction projects including but not limited to: • HUD Form 4010 — Federal Labor Standards Provisions • HUD Form 2992 — Certification Regarding Debarment and Suspension • The appropriate wage determination First Program Year Action Plan 18 City of Baldwin Park • A copy of the "Notice to All Employees" poster, to be posted at job site • A copy of the "Contractor's Guide to Prevailing Wage Requirements for Federally- Assisted Construction Projects ", which is to be provided to the prime contractor The compliance staff member will conduct site visits, conduct employee interviews, and check the weekly payroll forms for accuracy and compliance. MINORITY AND WOMEN BUSINESS OUTREACH PROGRAM There are several practices and procedures in place within the City to encourage the participation of Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Women Business Enterprises (WBE) in its contracts and construction projects. Minority utilization is also greatly encouraged in all hiring practices with regard to City projects. The City encourages the utilization of minority and women -owned businesses and low - income local residents by: A. Noting that MBE/WBE businesses are encouraged to participate in all bid ads advertised. B. By encouraging the local and area MBEMBE certified businesses to participate in City activities. C. By working with the area Employment and Training Office, Job Training Partnership Act, to set up a referral system between area contractors working on City projects and local low- income persons seeking training and /or employment. In addition, on HOME funded activities, the City will: A. Make every reasonable effort to encourage the use of minority and women's business enterprises in connection with HOME assisted activities. B. To the maximum extent possible, seek the inclusion of minorities and women, and businesses owned by minorities and women in the areas of real estate, construction, appraisals, management, financial services, investment banking, lending, underwriting, accounting, and legal services, in all contracts entered into by the City and such persons or entities, public or private, in order to assist in the activities funded by the HOME Program. The City will make an effort, as part of its minority outreach, to establish procedures to include minorities and women, and minority and women owned businesses located in the City in the development and implementation of its HOME Program activities. CODE COMPLIANCE The City will take several actions to ensure compliance with housing codes, consistent with the requirements of Consolidated Plan programs. A. All properties assisted with either Lead Paint Abatement or Housing Rehab funds will be inspected prior to assistance by a trained inspector for code compliance and First Program Year Action Plan 19 City of Baldwin Park require that violations be addressed as a condition of funding. In many cases, the rehab project will assist in addressing the violations. Inspectors will continue to monitor projects throughout construction. B. All projects assisted with HOME funds will be monitored subsequent to completion consistent with the regulations of the program. CDBG funds will be used to support the City's code enforcement program. Code enforcement activities supported with FY 2010 -2011 CDBG funds will be targeted in low - and moderate - income areas. G. Lead -based Paint 1. Describe the actions that will take place during the next year to evaluate and reduce the number of housing units containing lead -based paint hazards in order to increase the inventory of lead -safe housing available to extremely low - income, low - income, and moderate - income families, and how the plan for the reduction of lead -based hazards is related to the extent of lead poisoning and hazards. Baldwin Park's Housing Department implements the Residential Rehabilitation Program. The Department notifies all Residential Rehabilitation Program applicants about the hazards of lead -based paint by providing them with a pamphlet addressing the lead - paint hazards. These pamphlets are provided in English and Spanish. IN addition, during the 2010 -2011 Program Year, $10,000 in CDBG funds will be used to conduct lead based paint testing for properties being rehabilitated through the City's housing programs. An additional $20,000 in HOME funds will be used to provide loans and grants to eligible owners of properties utilizing the City's Residential Rehabilitation Program where lead based paint is present. Individuals who are not participating in any of the City's housing programs are referred to the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health where they can be assisted through the Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPPP). The CLPPP was established in 1991, as a result of the California legislature mandating the California Department of Health Services (CDHS) to develop and enact a standard of care for identifying and managing children with elevated blood lead levels. CLPPP, funded by the CDHS, is structurally placed under two Programs within Department of Public Health, 1) the Maternal, Child, and Adolescent Health Programs; and 2) the Environmental Health Program. The two programs ensure nursing and environmental case management and follow -up for lead- burdened children; to promote screening; and to carry out primary prevention, targeted outreach and education, and surveillance activities.

Describe the priorities and specific objectives the jurisdiction hopes to achieve during the next year. The City has made housing preservation and conservation a high priority. Older housing units represent a significant portion of the housing stock within Baldwin Park, indicating the ongoing need for maintenance, code enforcement activities, safety improvements, and rehabilitation assistance. As discussed in the 2010 -2014 Consolidated Plan, 37.9% of the housing units in the City were renter - occupied in 2000. In 2000, the rental housing vacancy rate was 2.7 %. A vacancy rate of 5% for rental housing is considered healthy, providing a certain level of mobility among renters. The vacancy rate for rental housing indicates a high demand for rental housing. The low vacancy rate for rental housing makes finding affordable and appropriate housing difficult for many households in the City. The current decline in housing values has brought homeownership back as tenure choice for low- and moderate - income households. Providing financial assistance to first - time homebuyers is a major focus of housing activities. The City is constantly looking at funding options to provide assistance to low- and moderate - income households that can make the monthly payments on a mortgage, however, cannot save the necessary funds for a down payment. The City will continue to implement its First Time Homebuyer Program that provides a silent second for eligible low- and moderate - income households. A reduced funding level for the Section 3 Program has made it difficult to maintain a 100% lease -up rate. The gap between the monthly adjusted income of extremely low - income households and the fair market rent requires a monthly subsidy in excess of funds provided by HUD. The City is forced to look at all options to reflect the level of funds received, thereby possibly reducing the number of households that could be served and the length of time a household would remain on the waiting list. In fiscal year 2010 -2011, the City of Baldwin Park will continue with a high priority on: A. Expand the supply of affordable rental and homeownership housing opportunities B. Preserve and improve the existing housing stock and ensure equal access. The following table outlines the specific accomplishment goals that the City plans to achieve through projects supported during the 2010 -2011 Program Year. A more detailed enumeration of output and outcome objectives for individual housing projects is included with the project worksheets that describe these projects.

Describe how Federal, State, and local public and private sector resources that are reasonably expected to be available will be used to address identified needs for the period covered by this Action Plan. As is outlined in the table above, the City intends to use $1,674,392 in Consolidated Plan funding from the 2010-2011 CDBG and HOME Program Year funds to support housing activities that address the 2010-2014 Consolidated Plan housing objectives/strategies. This funding will support the following housing activities: Other Federal, state, local, and private funding sources will be used in addition to these funds to achieve the accomplishment goals outlined above. The HOME and CDBG- funded projects outlined above may be matched by funds from other funding sources. Sources of matching funds may include: • Community Redevelopment Agency set-aside funds • Project-based Section 8 certificates through the Baldwin Park Housing Authority • Low Income Housing Tax Credits • Private contributions to sub recipients • CalHOME funds HOME Program Match Requirement The City has received a waiver from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) from having to provide a local match for the HOME Program funds as normally required under the HOME regulations. First Program Year Action Plan 22 City of Baldwin Park B. Needs of Public Housing 1. Describe the manner in which the plan of the jurisdiction will help address the needs of public housing and activities it will undertake during the next year to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership. The City of Baldwin Park does not own or manage any public housing. 2. If the public housing agency is designated as "troubled" by HUD or otherwise is performing poorly, the jurisdiction shall describe the manner in which it will provide financial or other assistance in improving its operations to remove such designation during the next year. NOT APPLICABLE C. Barriers to Affordable Housing 1. Describe the actions that will take place during the next year to remove barriers to affordable housing. Constraints to the provision of adequate and affordable housing are posed by market, governmental, infrastructure, and environmental factors. These constraints may result in housing that is not affordable to low- and moderate - income households or may render residential construction economically infeasible for developers. Constraints to housing production significantly impact households with lower incomes and special needs. a. Market Constraints Market factors, such as the cost to develop housing and the availability of funding for the purchase or rehabilitation of housing, can constrain the ability of lower income households to purchase or maintain affordable housing. b. Construction Costs A major cost associated with building a new house is the cost of building materials. Costs for wood frame, single- family construction, of average to good quality range from $60 to $80 per square foot. Costs for wood frame, multifamily construction, average about $50 per square foot, exclusive of parking. During past years, construction costs accelerated due to increased demand for building products generated by the Gulf States devastation and increased world -wide demand. With the current recessive market conditions, the costs have come down. The ability to mitigate high construction costs is limited without direct subsidies. c. Land Costs First Program Year Action Plan 23 City of Baldwin Park The price of land and any necessary improvement is a key component of the total cost of housing. Land costs include the cost of raw land, site improvements, and all costs associated with obtaining government approvals. Due to several market. factors, including a limited supply of vacant land, land costs can comprise a significant proportion of the costs of developing homes within the City. d. Availability of Mortgage and Rehabilitation Financing Under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA), lending institutions are required to disclose information on the disposition of loan applications and the income, gender, and race of loan applicants. According to HMDA statistics, lower income households experienced a significantly lower rate of approval compared to middle and upper income households. e. Governmental Constraints Actions by the City can have an impact on the price and availability of housing in the City. Land use controls, site improvement requirements, building codes, fees, and other local programs to improve the overall quality of housing may serve as a constraint to housing development. Land use policies are fundamental to ensuring housing opportunities. The Baldwin Park General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance determine the amount, location, type, and density of housing in the City of Baldwin Park. Land use policies that do not promote a variety of housing options can be barriers to affordable housing. The City of Baldwin Park allows housing in four (4) of its nine (9) land use designations, implemented through residential zones or zones with certain permitted residential uses. City regulations affect the type, location, density, and scale of residential development. The Zoning Ordinance is the primary regulatory tool that guides development. Zoning regulations are designed to protect and promote the health, safety and welfare of local residents and businesses, as well as implement the policies of the General Plan. The Zoning Ordinance also serves to preserve the character and integrity of existing neighborhoods. The Ordinance sets forth the residential development standards, including density, lot area, lot coverage, and parking. Density: A range of densities is permitted in residential zones. Density levels range from 5.8 units per acre in the single - family (R -1) zone and up to 20.0 units per acre in the R -3 zone. Residential development in the MU -1 and MU -2 zones is permitted up to 30 units per acre. Density bonus and regulatory concessions encourage and facilitate the development of affordable and senior housing. Height Limits and Lot Coverage: Maximum height is 27 to 35 feet for R -1 throught R -3 zoned properties and up to 50 feet for MU -1 zoned properties. Maximum lot coverage varies from 40% in the R -1 zone to 70% in the MU -1 zone. Although these building standards are designed to ensure the livability and quality of residential development, especially open space for families with children, the combination of height restrictions, lot coverage, and parking requirements may constrain the development of affordable, higher density housing in Baldwin Park. First Program Year Action Plan 24 City of Baldwin Park Parking Requirements: The Zoning standards require that all residential units have at least two parking spaces. Single- family homes are required to have two parking spaces (covered) with one additional space for each bedroom in excess of five. Multifamily dwellings must have two spaces per unit, with a minium of one covered space and one surface space. f. Fees and improvements Various fees and assessments are charged by the City to cover the costs of processing permits and providing services and facilities, such as utilities, schools, and infrastructure. Almost all of these fees are assessed through a pro rata share system, based on the magnitude of the project's impact or on the extent of the benefit that will be derived. However, these fees contribute to the cost of housing and may constrain the development of lower priced units. g. Local Processing and Permit Procedures The evaluation and permit process required by City procedures contributes to the cost of housing in that holding costs incurred by developers are ultimately manifested in the unit's selling price or rent. The permit processing procedure takes between four to eight weeks to complete. ..- The City has adopted the 2007 State Uniform Building, Housing, Plumbing, Mechanical, and Electrical Codes. These codes are considered to be the minimum necessary to protect the public health, safety, and welfare. The local enforcement of these codes does not add significantly to the cost of housing. D. HOME/ American Dream Down payment Initiative (ADDI) 1. Describe other forms of investment not described in § 92.205(b). The City uses HOME funds only in the ways described in Section 92.205(b). 2. If the participating jurisdiction (PJ) will use HOME or ADDI funds for homebuyers, it must state the guidelines for resale or recapture, as required in § 92.254 of the HOME rule. If down payment assistance participants sell or rent their properties, the principal loan amount plus an equity share of appreciation shall be calculated by subtracting the seller's applicable closing costs, seller's cash contribution in the original purchase price, and the documented value of capital improvements from the gross appreciation amount. The equity appreciation that is repaid to the City shall be placed back into the HOME First -time Homebuyers Program. The City is using the HOME recapture provision. First Program Year Action Plan 25 City of Baldwin Park 3. if the PJ will use HOME funds to refinance existing debt secured by multifamily housing that is that is being rehabilitated with HOME funds, it must state its refinancing guidelines required under § 92.206(b). The guidelines shall describe the conditions under which the PJ will refinance existing debt. At a minimum these guidelines must: a. Demonstrate that rehabilitation is the primary eligible activity and ensure that this requirement is met by establishing a minimum level of rehabilitation per unit or a required ratio between rehabilitation and refinancing. b. Require a review of management practices to demonstrate that disinvestments in the property has not occurred; that the long -term needs of the project can be met; and that the feasibility of serving the targeted population over an extended affordability period can be demonstrated. c. State whether the new investment is being made to maintain current affordable units, create additional affordable units, or both. d. Specify the required period of affordability, whether it is the minimum 15 years or longer. e. Specify whether the investment of HOME funds may be jurisdiction -wide or limited to a specific geographic area, such as a neighborhood identified in a neighborhood revitalization strategy under 24 CFR 91.215(e)(2) or a Federally designated Empowerment Zone or Enterprise Community. f. State that HOME funds cannot be used to refinance multifamily loans made or insured by any federal program, including CDBG. N/A - The City of Baldwin Park will not use any of its HOME funds to refinance existing debt secured by multifamily housing. 4. If the PJ is going to receive American Dream Down payment Initiative (ADDI) funds, please complete the following narratives: a. Describe the planned use of the ADDI funds. b. Describe the PJ's plan for conducting targeted outreach to residents and tenants of public housing and manufactured housing and to other families assisted by public housing agencies, for the purposes of ensuring that the ADDi funds are used to provide down payment assistance for such residents, tenants, and families, c. Describe the actions to be taken to ensure the suitability of families receiving ADDI funds to undertake and maintain homeownership, such as provision of housing counseling to homebuyers. N/A — The City of Baldwin Park does not receive ADDI funds. First Program Year Action Plan 26 City of Baldwin Park a�:v i � asnu, I Y.

Specific Homeless Prevention Elements Sources of Funds— Identify the private and public resources that the jurisdiction expects to receive during the next year to address homeless needs and to prevent homelessness. These include the McKinney -Vento Homeless Assistance Act programs, other special federal, state and local and private funds targeted to homeless individuals and families with children, especially the chronically homeless, the HUD formula programs, and any publicly -owned land or property. Please describe, briefly, the jurisdiction's plan for the investment and use of funds directed toward homelessness. The City works in coordination with the County of Los Angeles and local public and private service agencies to address the needs of homeless individuals and families with children and to prevent at -risk households from becoming homeless. The City has received over $605,041 in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds to implement the Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re- housing Program (HPRP). The Program provides financial assistance and services to prevent individuals and families from becoming homeless and help those who are experiencing homelessness to be quickly re- housed and stabilized. In addition, the City will continue in the next program year to utilize funding allocated through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program to fund the East San Gabriel Valley (ESGV) Coalition for the Homeless which provides services for the homeless by providing hotel vouchers, transitional housing, and permanent housing. Other sources of funds that the City will attempt to obtain include, but are not limited to, the Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP), Emergency Housing Assistance Program (EHAP), Mental Health Services Act (MHSA), as well as a range of private grants and contributions to local non -profit service organizations. In program year 2010 -2011, the City will continue to utilize HOME funds allocated to the Tenant -Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) program to help address the need for permanent housing solutions for individuals and families experiencing homelessness or on the verge of homelessness in the City of Baldwin Park. The City is working in partnership with The Baldwin Park Housing Authority to administer the City's TBRA programs. During the 2010 -2011 program year, the City will continue to collaborate with the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), the East San Gabriel Valley (ESGV) Coalition for the Homeless and other area homeless service providers. This collaborate includes attending and hosting regularly scheduled meeting that address the homeless conditions on a regionally (LAHSA) and local (ESGV) basis. 2. Homelessness— In a narrative, describe how the action plan will address the specific objectives of the Strategic Plan and, ultimately, the priority needs identified. Please also identify potential obstacles to completing these action steps. First Program Year Action Plan 27 City of Baldwin Park The City of Baldwin Park has taken a pro- active approach to addressing homelessness in our community in partnership with a wide -range of non - profit organizations, social service agencies and faith -based institutions. Programs that are funded by the City and /or the City collaborates with are as follows: a. Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re- Housing Program The City was allocated $605,041 for up to three -years from the Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re- Housing Program (HPRP) established under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. In October 2009, the City began working with a public service agency (Beyond Shelter) to provide temporary financial assistance and housing stabilization services to help prevent low- income individuals and families from becoming homeless and help those who are experiencing homelessness to be quickly re- housed and stabilized. The program includes payment of rental arrears, assistance with move -in costs and /or short -to- medium -term rental subsidies coupled with case management services to facilitate client stabilization leading to self- sufficiency. The intent of the federal funding is to serve persons who are experiencing a housing emergency due to the economic downturn and became homeless or would become homeless but for this assistance and can remain stably housed after this temporary assistance ends. b. Tenant -Based Rental Assistance Program The City continues to work with the Baldwin Park Housing Authority (BPHA) utilizing federal HOME funding to administer the City's Tenant -Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) program which emphasizes moving people into housing as quickly as possible and providing the appropriate level of services to support housing stabilization and retention. The TBRA program provides eligible homeless individuals and families as well as those at -risk to homelessness in Baldwin Park with short -term rental subsidies coupled with home -based case management. c. Annual Funding for Social Service Providers The City Council continues to appropriate federal funding, including Community [),e . lop en+ Block GI �-i LJnKAI:- in�icc4mon4 Dnr+norchin Ae-+ (i�- r)hAs =N VGVeIVt.JmCl Il ii3%ir' Grant (CiDBv� and i 1%- a ivc��i i 1a1 n I aI a Ica — nN I - ,i I—VI"I Program funds, to public and private service agencies that assist homeless individuals and families and those at -risk of becoming homeless. Funding to these agencies support a wide -range of programs and services that may not assist the homeless directly, however, some of these programs assist in preventing individuals and families from possibly becoming homeless. Over $170,000 in CDBG and HOME funding has been allocated to agencies providing these services for fiscal year 2010 -2011. Programs supported with this funding include: Family Service Center: provides a variety of social services to the extremely low- to moderate - income residents. Services include referral resources for medical care, family services, dental assistance, and women's health services. Santa Anita Family Services: provides a wide range of services to the community. Services include counseling programs, senior services, anger management, empowerment counseling, and information and referral services. First Program Year Action Plan 28 City of Baldwin Park East San Gabriel Valley Coalition for the Homeless: provides services that assist the homeless with hotel vouchers, transitional housing, and permanent housing. Redeemer Food Bank: the program provides food bank services for low- and moderate - income persons and those who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. Domestic Violence Advocate: the program provides assistance to victims of domestic violence by providing counseling, court advocacy, and federal services. Tenant Based Rental Assistance: the City provides this program to assist very -low income households with rental subsidies for a period of up to two (2) years. d. Partnerships with Faith -Based Organizations City staff continues to work with leaders of faith -based and community -based organizations to strategize on how to expand and better utilize the efforts and support of faith -based organizations in providing assistance to homeless families and individuals. New partnerships are being developed with a goal of facilitating a 111vre coordinated, collective effort focused on developing solutions to ending the cycle of homelessness in our community, including the creation of a coordinated system of care and permanent housing opportunities. 3. Chronic homelessness— The jurisdiction must describe the specific planned action steps it will take over the next year aimed at eliminating chronic homelessness by 2012. Again, please identify barriers to achieving this. The City is aggressively working with our community partners to address the issue of chronic homelessness. The City's Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re- Houisng (HPRP) Program and TBRA programs (described above) specifically target the chronically homeless population within the City. Specific planned actions for the next program year include: Continue to work with the LAHSA to implement Housing First strategies focused on moving chronically homeless individuals off the streets and directly into housing linked to rental subsidies, home -based case management and wrap- around supportive services. Work with local CHDOs and continuum of care providers to secure federal and state funding to establish additional permanent supportive housing units for chronically homeless individuals. Much of the County Continuum of Care effort toward ending chronic homelessness centers on improving data collection, and communications and coordination among gong and between providers. Unfortunately, several potential barriers hinder this communication. Funding structures and legal structures of current systems may not allow for development of a centralized intake system /HMIS that includes the collection of clinical data necessary to comprehensively document and address chronic homelessness. Health Information Privacy Portability Act (HIPPA) regulations regarding privacy in health care and the inability of many homeless housing and service providers to employ the number of well qualified clinicians and social workers that are needed to meet the daunting case management demand, continue to be difficult obstacles to overcome. First Program Year Action Plan 29 City of Baldwin Park In addition, without the availability of detox, respite and community stabilization beds /units and qualified teams of dedicated and persistent outreach professionals, many chronically homeless, mentally ill and /or chemically depended individuals will continue to evade and /or refuse treatment programs. 4. Homelessness Prevention —The jurisdiction must describe its planned action steps over the next year to address the individual and families with children at imminent risk of becoming homeless. During the 2010 -2011 program year, the City will continue to work with our community partners to focus attention and resources on efforts to prevent individuals and families from becoming homeless. The City has been allocated $605,041 to implement the Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re- housing Program (HPRP) established under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The HPRP provides financial assistance and services to prevent individuals and families from becoming homeless and help those who are experiencing homelessness to be m iickly re- housed and stabilized. The City will continue to work with the Baldwin Park Housing Authority to utilize HOME funds allocated to the Tenant -Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) Program to provide housing solutions to individuals and families with children at imminent risk of becoming homeless in Baldwin Park. Additionally, the City will continue to provide on going support for agencies that provide emergency services to households in need of temporary assistance in order to prevent possible eviction situations and work with community organizations to develop a strategy to solicit faith -based organizations and other private sector resources to invest in short - term rental subsidies and other forms of assistance for households at -risk of becoming homeless. 5. Discharge Coordination Policy — Explain planned activities to implement a cohesive, community -wide Discharge Coordination Policy, and how, in the coming year, the community will move toward such a policy. The City will continue to work with LAHSA to implement strategies identified in the Ten - Year Plan to End Homelessness to establish a cohesive, countywide Discharge Coordination Policy to ensure that individuals are not discharged from public or private institutions of care into homelessness. B. Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG) (States only) Describe the process for awarding grants to State recipients, and a description of how the allocation will be made available to units of local government.

First Program Year Action Plan 31 City of Baldwin Park The following table identifies the City of Baldwin Park's anticipated 2010 -11 Program Year non - housing Community Development accomplishments for each of the identified priority activities identified above. Only those categories in which the priority need was identified as being "High" priority are listed below. The City of Baldwin Park does not anticipate funding activities which address the needs that are not listed during the 2010 -2011 Program Year. Specific activities that will meet these goals are described in greater detail on the project worksheet contained as an appendix to this plan. All of the projects supported with CDBG funds will meet the statutory goals of providing decent housing and a suitable living environment and expanded economic opportunities principally for low- income and moderate income persons.

The project was completed in 2007. The economic development project created employment opportunities to over 320 low -and moderate - income individuals. 1. Describe the actions that will take place during the next year to reduce the number of poverty level families. The 2000 Census data Poverty Status indicated that 2,323 families or 13,541 individuals in the City live below poverty level. Implementing programs such as the housing rehabilitation loan and grant program will assist in maintaining livable conditions for lower- income persons. Most activities undertaken by the City's CDBG and HOME funds are efforts to reduce persons in poverty and improve the quality of life for Baldwin Park First Program Year Action Plan 32 City of Baldwin Park residents, either directly or indirectly. The various programs funded through CDBG, coupled with various social services, childcare programs, food, and counseling programs, provide City residents opportunities to utilize programs at little or no cost, thereby reducing their financial burden. Types of programs that directly influence the poverty level include job enrichment, development, and placement through education and economic development. Types of programs that indirectly affect poverty include those that upgrade the community and provide affordable housing. CDBG and HOME funds are often used as matching funds for other grants that also reduce the number of poverty level families. Specific projects being supported during the 2010 -11 Program Year designed to help lift some participants out of poverty include: • Tenant Based Rental Assistance • First Time Homebuyer Project • Housing Rehabilitation Programs (grant and loan) Specific projects being supported during the 2010 -2011 Program Year providing direct assistance to clients who include persons in poverty include: • Family Service Center • Childcare Subsidy Program • Recreation /Sports Scholarship Program • Youth Employment Program • Santa Anita Family Services • ESGV Coalition for the Homeless • Redeemer Food Bank • Project Sister • Domestic Violence Advocate First Program Year Action Plan 33 City of Baldwin Park i��„RI, m, y" fir, uuuu�n . v ^ii aoi mw�,lr p u a ru „�cu xul,u0,4m,law r prl "t &" ,tua 9i7M,1Nio1 liv ,mwaa II ^a1 M 9 � 4� i p. �i� � �k p ^p'' ¢u�wlll �m i y r, �"�f1ulG g�'" mhba7 a yl a , V { 4V ��,�,,, V +�V',�re k rpfu1eed:+J, 6i a t 1�';,fti E n.6, w I�,I�i�.. dVi��ll'? k1uVi��,'ma�,IG ISO, �i'.�'Nl�ii uGU rll'ud �r o,u,owu'�mwliui nnml h �muremu�uu .

In accordance with Section 104 (a)(3) of the Housing and Community Development Act, the Citizen Participation Plan sets forth a formal process for citizen participation in the City's five -year Consolidated Plan, the Annual Action Plan, the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER), and any Substantial Amendments to the Consolidated Plan or Action Plan. Baldwin Park's Citizen Participation Plan is composed of the following parts: A. Purpose B. Definitions C. Citizen Participation Opportunities D. The Consolidated Plan Process E. The Program Year and the Citizen Participation Schedule F. Notice to the Public G. Access to Materials H. Review and Comment i. Public Meetings and Forums J. Amendments K. Complaints L.

PURPOSE The purpose of Baldwin Park's Citizen Participation Plan is to create opportunities for and encourage citizen participation in the development of the City's Consolidated Housing and Community Development Plan(s) and performance. To this end, policies and procedures for public involvement in Baldwin Park's Consolidated Planning process are described in the Citizen Participation Plan. As articulated in the Plan, the City of Baldwin Park strongly encourages public participation to insure that proposed goals, programs and activities represent the needs of the community The Community Development Department, acting as the lead agency for the Consolidated Plan, is responsible for the citizen participation process and for Page 2 of 12 making available the Citizen Participation Plan and other Consolidated Plan documents. 411 a r 9 a R M IsP. F Five -Year Consolidated Plan: This document is submitted to HUD every five years and serves as the five -year planning document of the City and application for funding for CDBG, HOME, and other federally funded programs. The Consolidated Plan consists of the following primary components: a needs assessment and an analysis which identifies priorities and a strategy which establishes goals and objectives for addressing priority needs and time frames for achievements. One -Year Action Plan: This document is submitted to HUD every year and updates the Consolidated Plan and allocates one year's CDBG and HOME funding, including any program income generated from CDBG and HOME. The Action Plan is developed to identify the actions that will be taken and projects that will be funded to meet the strategy's goals and objectives. Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER): This document reports on the progress made in carrying out the Consolidated Plan and Action Plan. Public Hearing: A public hearing is a public meeting that has been publicly noticed in a local newspaper of general circulation, or noticed in a fashion which otherwise follows local procedures for formal noticing of public hearings. Public hearings are required prior to the adoption of the Consolidated Plan, Action Plan, and Substantial Amendments to either plan. C. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION OPPORTUNITIES The City. of Baldwin Park provides citizens With the nppnrf inity to rnmment nn matters pertaining to CDBG and HOME during scheduled public hearings and community meetings and /or through contact with the City's Housing Department. The input received is included in the Consolidated Plan and Action Plan narratives and provided to the City Council for consideration when adopting the plan(s) and the proposed priorities, funding amounts, and activities. Specifically, the following steps are pursued by the City to encourage public input during the development of the Consolidated Plan and Action Plan: • The City will publish a summary of the contents of the proposed plan in at least one local city newspaper of general circulation. The summary shall include the amount of funding the City expects to receive, the proposed list of activities that will be undertaken, and the estimated amount of funds benefiting low and moderate income persons. Page 3 of 12 • The City will conduct at least two public hearings on the proposed plan and at least two community meetings. • The City will provide a comment period of at least 30 days prior to the schedule City Council meeting to approve the Consolidated Plan and Action Plan. During the comment period, residents, groups, and public agencies may examine and submit comment regarding the proposed plan. • The City will provide a copy of the proposed plan to the Office of the City Clerk, the City Library, and Community Development Department Office. The City shall provide a reasonable number of free copies of the proposed and final plan upon request; thereafter, there will be a cost of $1 for the first page and 25 cents for each additional page. The law declares that the primary purpose of the Community Development funds is to improve communities by providing: decent housing, a suitable living environment, and growing economic opportunities— principally, for low and moderate- income people. The Citizen Participation Plan encourages participation by low and moderate - income persons, particularly those living in slum and blighted areas and in areas where federal funds are proposed. In addit+ n c+ o,,,.,,,,rngQ­ the participation of on i+e citizens, including minorities and ion, I GI UICA VJ l Ut W1 WI uI1 Rv vR� non - English speaking persons, as well as persons with disabilities. In the process of developing and implementing a Consolidated Plan, it also encourages the participation of other members of the community such as private and non- profit groups and other government agencies, which have impact on the community development needs of the City. Low to Moderate - Income People Because the amount of CDBG and HOME assistance is mostly based upon the severity of both poverty and substandard housing conditions, it is necessary that public participation genuinely involve low to moderate- income residents who experience these conditions. Every effort will be made to ensure involvement by low to moderate- income persons at all stages of the process, including: identifying needs, setting priorities, suggesting programs, and overseeing the way in which programs are carried out. This can be achieved through: • Workshops and meetings conducted by the Community Development Department. • Communication and coordination with service providers, the school district, and local organizations. Non - English Speaking People A considerable number of citizens in the Baldwin Park community are non - English speaking. It is important that these citizens also have input on the community development needs of the City. To this end, the City of Baldwin Park will provide full access to the Consolidated Plan process through: Page 4 of 12 • Communication and coordination with local community and civic groups. • Program information and public hearing notices in Spanish. • Interpreters (if available) at public hearings when a significant number of non - English speaking residents are expected to attend. People with Disabilities To provide full access under the Consolidated Plan for persons with disabilities, the City of Baldwin Park, will undertake the following: Select public meeting sites that are accessible for persons with physical disabilities. Conduct outreach to community organizations that represent people with disabilities as part of the Consolidated Plan process. D.

In general, the process involves: 1. Identification of housing and community development needs. 2. Preparation of a draft use of funds for the upcoming year called the "Proposed Annual Action Plan ". Every five years, there will also be the development of the proposed Five -Year Strategic Plan or Consolidated Plan. 3. Formal approval by elected officials of the final Annual Action Plan or Five -Year Consolidated Plan. 4. On occasion during the year, it might be necessary to change the use of funds already budgeted in the Action Plan, or to change priorities established in the Consolidated Plan. In that a case, a formal Substantial Amendment will be proposed, considered, and acted upon. 5. After a program year is complete, an Annual Performance Report must be drafted for public review and comment, and then sent to HUD. E.

PUBLIC MEETINGS AND HEARINGS Because the housing and community development needs of low and moderate - income people are so great and so diverse, priorities must be set in order to decide which needs should get more attention and more resources than other needs. This is the basic reason the Consolidated Plan exists. To encourage public involvement, public meetings will be conducted in various neighborhoods to determine the specific needs and priorities identified by low and moderate - income people. "Needs" meetings may be conducted by City staff. The Community Development Department will work with community and neighborhood -based organizations to get the involvement of the people they serve, particularly if they are from targeted low to moderate- income or blighted target sites. The Department will ask these organizations to provide meeting space and announcements regarding the meetings. In addition, there will be at least two public hearings at different times during the program year to garner citizen comments. If a Substantial Amendment is required, an additional public hearing will be scheduled. Public hearings are required by law in order to obtain the public's views, and to provide the public with the City's responses to public questions and proposals. The law requires public hearings at all stages of the process, including at least a hearing about community needs, a public hearing to review proposed uses of funds, and a public hearing to assess how funds were spent during the previous program year. If resources permit, other public hearings may also be scheduled. Allhl' •�' .,1 n i rel I.-I • + r�lrsnnc nnrn c� nh ihl'r 11 public meetings and [hearings will be held cat.

Signature Page City of Baldwin Park Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Executive Summary A. Background Fair housing is a condition in which individuals of similar income levels in the same housing market have like ranges of choice available to them regardless of race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, sex, disability, marital status, familial status, or any other arbitrary factor. The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (A.I.) provides an overview of laws, regulations, conditions or other possible obstacles that may affect an individual or household's access to housing. Equal access to housing for all is fundamental to each person in meeting essential needs and pursuing personal, educational, employment, or other goals. Recognizing this fundamental right, the federal and State of California governments have both established fair housing as a right protected by law. Fair Housing Laws The Civil Rights Act of 1968 and Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988' are the primary federal laws that prohibit discrimination in the sale, rental, lease, or negotiation for property based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Whereas the Civil Rights Act contained provisions protecting people from housing discrimination, amendments enacted in 1988 extended protection to families with children and people with disabilities. The Fair Housing Act also sets accessibility standards for new multi- family units and requires "reasonable accommodations" for people with disabilities. The State of California has enacted a number of statutes that mirror and, in certain cases, extend fair housing protections in federal law. The Unruh Civil Rights Act of 19592 and subsequent court decisions require equal access to the accommodations, advantages, facilities, privileges or services of all business establishments regardless of protected status. The courts have interpreted this Act to prohibit any arbitrary discrimination based in any class distinction, regardless of whether or not that basis is enumerated in the Act. The Fair Employment and Housing Act of 19633 is the primary state law that prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, 'lease negotiation, or financing of housing based oil race, color, religion, sex, marital status, national origin, and ancestry. The California Fair Housing Act of 1992 brought state laws into conformity with the Federal Fair Housing Act of 1988 and added protections for people with a "mental and physical disability" and "familial status." The Act also requires that housing providers allow disabled persons to modify their premises to meet their needs. The Ralph Civil Rights Act of 1976 provides that all persons have the right to be free from any violence, or intimidation by threat of violence, committed against their persons or property because of their race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, political affiliation, sexual orientation, sex, age, disability, or position in a labor dispute. The Act prohibits violence or threat of the same in rental housing situations. The Banes Civil Rights Act also forbids interference by force or threat with an individual's constitutional or statutory rights in places of worship, housing, and private property. ' 43 U.S. Code §§ 3601 et. seq. 2 California Civil Code, §§ 51 and 52 3 California Government Code §§ 12900 -12906 City of Baldwin Park I -1 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Executive Summary Defining Fair Housing and Impediments In light of fair housing legislation passed at the federal and state levels as well as consultation with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and professionals providing fair housing services, the following definition of fair housing is used for this report: Fair housing is a condition in which individuals of similar income levels in the same housing market having a like range of housing choice available to them regardless of race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, sex, disability, marital status, familial status, source of income, sexual orientation, or any other arbitrary factor. Within the legal framework of federal and state laws and based on the guidance provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Fair Housing Planning Guide, impediments to fair housing choice can be defined as: Any actions, omissions, or decisions taken because of age, race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, sex, disability, marital status, familial status, source of income, sexual orientation, or any other arbitrary factor which restrict housing choices or the availability of housing choices; or Any actions, omissions, or decisions which have the effect of restricting housing choices or the availability ^f housing choices on the basis of age, race, color, ancestr;�, national origin, religion, sex, disability, marital status, familial status, source of income, sexual orientation or any other arbitrary factor. To affirmatively promote equal housing opportunity, a community must work to remove or mitigate impediments to fair housing choice. Furthermore, eligibility for certain federal funds requires the compliance with federal fair housing laws. Specifically, to receive HUD Community Planning and Development (CPD) formula grants, a jurisdiction must: • Certify its commitment to actively further fair housing choice; • Maintain fair housing records; and • Conduct an analysis of impediments to fair housing. The City of Baldwin Park is dedicated to providing fair housing opportunities to all residents, and ensuring compliance with all applicable laws. B. Methodology and Citizen Participation The scope of this A.I. adheres to the recommended content and format included in Volumes 1 and 2 of the "Fair Housing Planning Guide" published by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity. Methodology HUD requires jurisdictions that activities to assess the status o f Community Development Block Analysis of Impediments to Fai rreceive federal funding for community development fair housing in their community. As a recipient of Grant (CDBG) funds, Baldwin Park should update its Housing (last updated in 2003) and report the findings City of Baldwin Park I -2 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Executive Summary and progress in the Consolidated and Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER) submitted to HUD. The purpose of this report is to identify impediments to fair and equal housing opportunities in Baldwin Park. This Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing (A.I.) provides an overview of the laws, regulations, conditions or other possible obstacles that may affect access to housing and other services in Baldwin Park. The scope, analysis, and format used in this A.I. report adheres to recommendations of the Fair Housing Planning Guide published by HUD. The A.I. contains these six (6) chapters: 1. Executive Summary. This chapter provides background on "fair housing," methodology, citizen participation, and a summary of the findings and recommendations identified within the report. 2. Community Characteristics. This chapter provides a brief history of the City, a demographic profile, income profile, employment profile, housing profile, special needs housing profile and key maps to provide the baseline information necessary to form a complete understanding of the City. This chapter provides a broad overview and understanding of the community so that housing needs are clearly defined. Analysis of Private Sector Impediments. This chapter provides an overview of the private owner- occupied housing market and the renter - occupied housing market. It examines the private- sector impediments to fair housing. 4. Analysis of Public Policy Impediments. This chapter identifies analyzes a range of public activities that may impede fair housing choice, including governmental land use, development regulations, and community development activities. Potential impediments to fair housing choice are discussed. 5. Analysis of Ci7rrent Fair Housing Activity. This chapter includes the current fair housing education, enforcement and legal status of any pending cases currently underway in the City. 6. Conclusions and Recommendations. This chapter provides a summary of major issues and recommendations to further fair housing. This chapter also reports on progress made in implementing the prior A.I. These actions are specific, with implementing timeframes. Citizen Participation The City values citizen input on how well city government serves its residents. The public participation effort for the 2010 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (A.I.) adheres to the City's adopted Citizen Participation Plan. To solicit public participation in the A.I., the City held a Community Meeting on October 8, 2009. The purpose of the meeting was to provide background on the scope of the study City of Baldwin Park I -3 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Executive Summary and solicit input on the most pressing issues affecting housing opportunities in Baldwin Park. The City also distributed Resident Surveys at various locations. Following the Community Meeting, a draft copy of the A.I. was prepared. The Draft A.I. was then finalized and made available for a 30 -day public review. The City Council convened a Public Hearing to solicit feedback from the public and then formally adopted the A.I. during the City Council Meeting held on . Comments received on the Draft A.I. during the public review period or during the Public Hearing were incorporated into the Conclusions and Recommendations section of the A.I. C. Summary of Findings and Recommendations The A.I. revealed the following three (3) findings and Recommendations: 1. Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities. Discrimination against the disabled is the leading cause (56 %) of all fair housing complaints in Baldwin Park. Disabled persons are experiencing difficulties when requesting reasonable accommodations or modifications. In particular, persons with cognitive disabilities experience significantly more problems with these accommodations. Recommendation: Lending Patterns. An analysis of lending patterns revealed that loan approval rates are generally higher for Asians and Whites than for Hispanics in the City of Baldwin Park. The data analyzed indicates that across all racial /ethnic groups, loan approval rates increase with corresponding increases in the income of the applicants; however, Hispanic applicants had lower loan approval rates in comparison to other similarly - situated racial /ethnic groups with respect to income. Recommendation: To help improve the lending outcomes of Hispanics, the City will work with its fair housing service provider to improve its homeownership education workshops in areas with high concentrations of minorities (See Map I in Chapter II, Community Profile). 3. Lack of Awareness of Fair Housing Laws. A general lack of knowledge of fair housing rights and responsibilities exists in the City. HRC statistics show that over 2/3 of all cases are successfully counseled. This indicates that landlords and tenants can resolve their differences when the HRC, as a neutral convener, provides clarifying information to resolve actual or perceived discrimination. Recommendation: To continue the declining incidence of fair housing discrimination complaints, the City will work with HRC to maintain and more effectively target informational and outreach efforts in the community. 4. Lack of Large Family Housing Opportunities. The availability of large family housing (3+ bedrooms) is lacking in the City of Baldwin Park. Such units comprise only 37% of the City's housing stock. According to reports from City housing staff, the City regularly receives calls from residents inquiring about the lack of housing opportunities for large families — particularly those with children. According to HRC, City of Baldwin Park I -4 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03/25110 Fair Housing Choice Executive Summary discrimination complaints on the basis of familial status are the second leading cause of resident complaints. Recommendation: To improve the availability of large family housing, the City's Housing Department should pursue the development of affordable large - family infill housing. Further, HRC should prominently discuss large family housing issues and discrimination based on familial status or families with children during fair housing workshops conducted in the City.

Historical Profile Baldwin Park began as part of cattle grazing land belonging to the San Gabriel Mission. It eventually became part of the Rancho Azusa de Dalton and the Rancho La Puente properties. With the decline of cattle ranching due to severe drought, the area north of the present Ramona Boulevard was settled by small farmers /squatters. The community, named "Pleasant View ", was composed of small farms and vineyards, shaded by pepper trees. Water shortage was a major problem — farmers with no wells were forced to haul water in from the San Gabriel River. Since irrigation was not utilized, all crops depended upon rainfall for water. The community's name was changed to "Vineland" in 1880, with business centered around the General Store at today's Los Angeles and La Rica Streets. By 1906 the name had changed to Baldwin Park. It was named after Elias J. "Lucky" Baldwin, a colorful individual whose exploits were well know. In 1956 Baldwin Park became the 47' incorporated city in the State of California. In the 1950s Vias Turkey Ranch was about one mile from the now 10 Freeway just off of Frazier Avenue. It was not only a huge commercial turkey ranch but famous in the Valley for a huge outdoor aviary with a unique selection of birds. The ranch had two or three types of deer species. When the value of the land escalated, the property was sold and the Ranch moved to Apple Valley. The Milikan Dairy was on Frazier where area schools brought students on field trips. Popular pastimes in the 1950s included riding at the horse stables across the bridge of the San Gabriel River, which was an open sand and rock river bed. Patrons rode for $1.00 per hour, a hefty price at the time since the minimum wage was fifty cents an hour. B. Demographic Profile Population Trends Baldwin- Park is one of 88 incorporated cities in Los Angeles County, During the 1990s, the population of Baldwin Park and El Monte outpaced population growth countywide. From 2000 -2009, Baldwin Park's population growth increased at a lesser pace than the prior decade and at a lesser rate than that of the City and County of Los Angeles (Table II -1).

City of Baldwin Park II 1 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Communitv Characteristics Age Characteristics The age distribution of Baldwin Park residents remained stable between 1990 and 2000 despite a 9.4% increase in the City's population over the ten year period. Adults age 25- 54 remained the largest portion (41 %) of the City population in 2000, while seniors comprised 66/0 of the population. The fastest growing age groups were persons 55 -64 and seniors (Table II -2).

Race and Ethnicity From 1990 to 2000, Census respondents identifying themselves as "Hispanic" increased by 21.6% and represented the largest numerical increase in the Baldwin Park population. The proportion Whites decreased by 47% or 5,203 people, representing the largest numerical decrease amongst racial /ethnic groups (Table II -3).

Whereas the separation of different race and ethnic groups has historically been associated with segregation, people's choice of residence today is complex. The quality of local schools, housing prices, access City of Baldwin Park II -2 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03/25/10 Fair Housing Choice Community Characteristics to transportation alternatives, and affiliation with people or friends of similar values are all important reasons which affect where people choose to live. Map 1 shows the Minority Population by block group. Different statistical techniques, such as the dissimilarity or exposure index, can aid in evaluating the degree of integration among different race /ethnic groups. The dissimilarity index represents the percentage of one group that would have to move to a new neighborhood to achieve perfect integration with another group. An index score can range in value from 0, indicating complete integration, to 100, indicating complete segregation. As an example, Gary, Indiana was the nation's most segregated city (between Whites and African Americans), with an 87.9 rating.' The degree of racial integration in Baldwin Park between Whites and other ethnic groups is shown in Table II -4. Baldwin Park is not only a diverse multi - cultural community, but also one which people of different race and ethnic backgrounds live in close proximity to one another. With respect to integration with Whites, the overall level of integration is very high. The same pattern exists when comparing the proportion of Hispanics (majority group) with other minority groups.

When a group's population is less than 1;000, exercise caution in interpreting its dissimilarity indices.

The Bureau of the Census defines a household as all persons who occupy a housing unit, which may include single persons living alone, families related through marriage or blood, and unrelated individuals living together. Person living in retirement or convalescent homes, dormitories, or other group living situations are not considered households. Table II -5 compares various household trends in Baldwin Park. Eighty -two percent (89 %) of the City's households were family households at the time of the 2000 Census. Perhaps the most significant change since 2000 was the percent change in the number of family households that are married without children (32.3% change), comprising 240/0 of all households in the 2006 -2008 American Community Survey. Single, non - family households increased by 32.7% since 2000. Non - family households include single persons and unrelated individuals sharing housing accommodations. Household size identifies sources of population growth and /or overcrowding in individual housing units. A city's average household size will increase over time with an increase in larger families or may decline where the population is aging. In 2006- 2008, it was estimated that the City's average household size decreased from 4.44 to 4.37 persons per household. This decrease increase is attributable to an aging population and an increase in households that are married without children or single - person households.

Income Profile In evaluating changes in household income, households are oftentimes grouped into different income groups in relation to the County Median Family Income (MFI) and adjusted for household size.' This provides a useful comparison of changes in the City's household income distribution over time and in relation to the County. The four income categories are shown below: • Extremely Low Income (0 -30 percent of County MFI) • Low Income (3 1 -50 percent of County MFI) • Moderate Income (51 -80 percent of County MFI) • Middle /Upper Income (>81 percent of County MFI) As shown in Table II -6, the median income adjusted for inflation (2006 dollars) decreased by $3,718 over the period between 1989 and 1999. This is attributable largely to inflation and the exodus of high - paying jobs from the L.A. metropolitan area during the 1990s. When this occurred, the median family income returned to nearly 1979 levels and has remained there since. The 2006 American Community Survey reports that the median family income in 2006 is $46,308 as compared to $48,517 in 1979 when adjusted for inflation. In terms of household income levels from 1990 -2000, there was a significant increase in the number and proportion of low income groups and a significant decrease in the number of high income households (Table II -6).

The Consolidated Plan database provides a useful comparison of household income by race /ethnicity and household type. Approximately 44% of White households, 470/0 of Hispanic households, and 54% of African American households were low- and moderate - income households compared to Asians (28 %). White, African American and Hispanic households were disproportionately low- and moderate income households. 2 The Department of Housing and Urban Development uses Census data to develop special tabulations by federal income group and special needs category for the Consolidated Plan. The City's income distribution is indexed to the County median family income to provide a comparison of changes in Baldwin Park over time and relative to the larger County area. City of Baldwin Park II -6 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housinb Choice Community Characteristics Among household types, 71% of elderly households earned low and moderate incomes, presumably due to their limited retirement income. However, 44% of all large families also earned low and moderate incomes, which is problematic due to the higher living expenses, including child care and medical care, incurred by larger families.

The definition of an area of concentration for low and moderate income households is governed by federal regulations for the Community Development Block Grant Program. Low and moderate income area is defined as a block group or census tract with 51% or more residents earning income less than 80% of the County median family income. The western and central Baldwin Park is largely a low- moderate income area. A small portion of north Baldwin Park also has a low -mod area. Map 3 shows the concentrations of low- and moderate - income persons in the census block groups.

This section explores economic trends and characteristics in Baldwin Park as a means to identifying and understanding local housing needs. Major Employers Baldwin Park has a diversified mix of government, service, education medical employers. Baldwin Park's location in eastern Los Angeles County has historically generated many good - paying private sector jobs in the medical, transportation and service industries.

E. Housing Profile Fair housing is also concerned with the availability of a range in types and prices of housing. This section provides an overview of the housing market and the dynamics affecting housing availability. Chapter IV of this Analysis of Impediments study build on this analysis and evaluate the City's Zoning Ordinance and land use regulations to assess the status of fair housing in their community. Housing Growth Baldwin Park's housing inventory expanded by only 2.9% from 1990 -2000, which is less than neighboring Cities and the metropolitan area. This relative lack of growth is due to City of Baldwin Park II -11 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Community Characteristics the fact that the City was mostly developed over 30 years ago and available land for new development is scarce. Between 2000 and 2009, housing growth increased slightly from 1.4% in 1990 to 2.9% between 1990 and 2000. As discussed later, the predominant housing type in Baldwin Park remained single- family homes, accounting for 78% of the City's housing stock in 2009. Approximately 19% of Baldwin Park's housing inventory is multi - family units, which is a lesser proportion than the countywide proportion of 43 %. Table II -10 shows changes in the housing inventory of Baldwin Park as compared to surrounding jurisdictions and the County as a whole.

Department of Finance, 2009 Housing Characteristics The rate of homeownership has remained relatively constant in Baldwin Park. The 59% homeownership rate is near the national rate of 66.2 %. It should be noted that the homeownership rate increased at a similar rate as throughout the United States. However, recent reductions in the cost of housing may result in homeownership being more attainable to families of modest income. Currently, low interest rates on mortgages are giving potential homeowners more buying power and have brought homeownership within reach of some families who were previously excluded when rates were higher.

Table II -12 below provides a breakdown of the size of the housing in the City by tenure. Note that the table reflects occupied units and not total units. The table shows that 570/0 of the City's occupied housing units contain between two to three bedrooms. One - bedroom units comprise 24% of all housing units. Combine these figures and 81% of Baldwin Park's housing units contain from one to three bedrooms.

With 7% of the units containing four bedrooms and one percent (1 %) containing five (5) or more bedrooms, four and five bedroom units make up eight percent (8 %) of the housing units in the City. Based on these statistics and information provided by City Housing Department staff and Housing Rights Center statistics, it can be reasonably concluded that large families have a difficult time finding housing of adequate size in Baldwin Park to meet their family needs.

Single family detached units currently account for a majority of the housing stock in the City. Just over 67 percent of all units are detached single- family units while attached single- family units, such as townhouses and condominiums, account for 11 percent. Existing multifamily housing is often packaged in small complexes with less than ten units. These units account for eight percent of all housing stock, while structures with ten or more units account for 14 percent. Many of these structures were built between 1940 and 1980. Mobile homes have traditionally filled a unique and useful niche for the lower income housing market. These units are recognized as a viable solution to the shortage of affordable housing. However, the number of mobile homes has experienced a drastic decline in recent years and currently account for two percent of housing in the City, or 313 units. Land in Baldwin Park is becoming too valuable to use as mobile home parks. Owners of existing parks are considering selling their land for development.

If not regularly maintained, housing can deteriorate into disrepair, depress neighboring property values, discourage reinvestment, and eventually impact quality of life in an entire neighborhood. Maintaining quality housing is thus an important community goal. This section therefore analyzes and discusses the age and condition of Baldwin Park housing and neighborhoods. Table 11 -14 indicates the number of homes built in Baldwin Park by decade. According to the latest Census figures, the majority of the City's housing stock was built between 1950 and 1969. This coincides with one of City's booming economic growth periods. During that period 7,802 units were built, accounting for 46/0 of the City's current housing stock. The quality of construction of this newer housing stock will not subject them to the ravages of older housing units. Many of the older units, accounting for about 46% of the housing stock, were built using low quality materials that did not follow any quality or design standards. Age has taken its toll on these older units, which are candidates for rehabilitation and in some cases demolition and reconstruction. Concerning mobile homes, the condition of these homes has become more of an issue as these units age and decrease in value while the residentially zoned land where they are located becomes more valuable. When parks close, the older and more deteriorated homes cannot be transported without renovations that are unaffordable to the owner.

Rental Housing Prices For the purposes of this analysis, affordable rental housing is defined as units that a low income family can afford without incurring a housing cost burden and without being "overcrowded." A unit is considered overcrowded when there is more than one person per room. Rooms that are considered in this calculation include bedrooms, living rooms, kitchens, dens, home offices and other finished rooms. This calculation excludes bathrooms and laundry rooms. Different sized units will have different thresholds of affordability. The adjustments in the thresholds will mirror those made for family size in HUD's annual release of Section 8 Income Limits.

The low interest rates during the same time period were part of the impetus for the surge in home prices. With interest rates increasing in 2007, home prices did not follow. This resulted in a decrease in the number of families being able to purchase a home. In addition, households with variable interest rates had problems keeping up with the increased payments and as a result, banks commenced foreclosing on those homes. Within a short period of time, the housing market collapsed and home prices started plummeting. The table below shows the median sales price for single family home in Baldwin Park for the zip code 91706 that corresponds to the City. These numbers represent 2008 values. The results show that on a citywide average, the decrease in single - family home prices in Baldwin Park during the previous 12 month period was approximately 32 percent. Countywide the price of single - family homes decreased in value by 29 percent. Similar conditions occur for condominium or attached single family dwellings.

Special Housing Needs Profile Senior Citizens According to the 2000 Census, 6.2% of Baldwin Park's households were seniors, defined as 65 years old and above. Senior households have special housing needs due to income, health care costs, and physical disabilities. Services Available to Seniors Seniors receive social services through a variety of nonprofit organizations. Regionally, the Los Angeles County Department of Community and Senior Services provides a nutrition program, transportation, paralegal service and property tax assistance, and other supportive services through a drop -in center. Congregate meals are provided at the Baldwin Park Community Center. The Los Angeles Metropolitan Transit Authority provides subsidized transit services and special medical shuttles to hospitals. Locally, the City of Baldwin Park offers a variety of services to address senior needs. The Julia McNeill Senior Center is a resource to help connect seniors to valuable outside resources and programs. The Senior Center provides high-quality nutritional, educational and cultural programs. Some programs include income tax preparation, fitness walks, wellness activities, crafts and health - related support groups. People with Disabilities The Americans with Disabilities Act defines a disability as a "physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities." People with disabilities have special housing needs because of their fixed income, higher health costs, and need for accessible and affordable housing. Seniors may also face discrimination if landlords treat them differently due to their source of income, ability to maintain the unit, or disability. In the 2000 Census, 8.3% of Baldwin Park residents reported a physical disability. Services Available to the Disabled The Center for Independent Living is the primary agency serving disabled residents in the Los Angeles area. Core services include: Advocacy, Cross Disability Peer Modeling; Housing Referrals; Personal Assistance Referrals; Systems Advocacy; Technical Assistance; Information and Referral; Emergency Services; Equipment Loans; and Assistive Technology. Representatives from the agency indicate that the primary need in the Los Angeles is the shortage of affordable housing for very low income disabled people which is also accessible, since the vast majority of affordable housing was built before the advent of modern accessibility standards. The Lanterman Development Services Center also provides other services. Other local nonprofit agencies serving seniors assist in providing services. With respect to housing, the City's Home Improvement Loan and Grant Program assists homeowners with health and safety issues such as heating, cooling, leaky roofs, access ramps or other emergency issues. For those requiring supportive living, Baldwin Park has 11 adult residential care facilities and 2 residential care facilities for the elderly, providing City of Baldwin Park II -20 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Community Characteristics a total capacity of 157 beds. However, given the large number of disabled people living in Baldwin Park, the demand for facilities far exceeds the actual number of beds available.

Homeless Persons Housing affordability for those who are or were formerly homeless is challenging from an economics standpoint, and this demographic group may also encounter fair housing issues when landlords refuse to rent to formerly homeless persons due to poor credit history. These difficulties are more severe for homeless families that need larger affordable units. According to the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) Homeless Count' conducted in 2009, the San Gabriel Valley Service Provision Area (SPA) No. 3 has 1,770 unsheltered homeless on a given night. Homeless people face critical housing needs due to their income and the lack of affordable housing. Housing affordability for homeless or formerly homeless people is challenging not only from an economics standpoint — this demographic group may also encounter discriminatory housing practices when landlords refuse to rent to formerly homeless persons due to poor credit history. Property managers often require an income three times the rent, and reject housing applicants with poor credit histories or records of eviction. These difficulties are more severe for homeless families that need larger affordable units. Services Available to the Homeless Homeless prevention services in the City of Baldwin Park are largely provided through small homeless service providers throughout the region and, in particular, the following programs: The Los Angeles Homeless Assistance Program, part of the Mental Health Association in L.A. County, provides supportive services to mentally ill homeless persons including life skills training, money management, case management and referrals to other resources. The Los Angeles County Homeless Services Authority offers transitional housing and supportive services for homeless youth aged 18 -21 who were emancipated from the foster care system. The National Mental Health Association of Greater Los Angeles includes an Los Angeles Services section that serves the mentally ill and the homeless mentally ill. Services include mental health treatment; living and work skills; assistance with medical and financial benefits; housing assistance; substance abuse recovery; and several other services. a 2009 Greater Los Angeles Homeless Count.

City of Baldwin Park II -22 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments Fair housing opportunity is covered by federal and State regulations and court decisions that prohibit discrimination in the rental, sale, negotiation, advertisement, or occupancy of housing on the basis of protected class. Implementation of fair housing practices is achieved through a network of realtors, apartment associations, housing associations, fair housing providers, and the courts. This chapter provides an overview of the private sector housing industry in Baldwin Park and its interrelationship with fair housing services. A. Owner - Occupied Housing Part of the American dream involves owning a home in a good neighborhood near schools, parks, shopping centers, jobs and other community amenities. Homeownership strengthens individual households and entire neighborhoods because owner - occupants have made an investment in their own personal property as well as the neighborhood and community. This fosters a greater sense of pride in the appearance and condition of not only the home but of the neighborhood as well. It also promotes owner involvement in the community because owner- occupants have a personal stake in the area and tend to be more active in decisions affecting the community. Fair housing opportunity laws protect an individual or family's right to occupy suitable housing in any location. Ensuring fair housing is an important way to not only preserve but to improve the housing opportunities for all residents in Baldwin Park. Home Buying Process Purchasing a home presents many challenges to the would -be owner. One of the main challenges in buying a home is the process by which an individual or family must acquire the property. The time required to find a home, the major legal and financial implications surrounding the process, the number of steps required and financial issues to be considered can be overwhelming to many home buyers. Throughout this time - consuming and costly process, fair housing issues can surface in many ways. Discriminatory practices in the home buying process can occur through the: • Advertisement of homes for sale; • Lending process; • Appraisal process; • Actions of real estate agents and sellers; and • The issuance of insurance. Advertising The first step in buying a home is to search for available housing through advertisements that appear in magazines, newspapers or in listings on the Internet. Advertising is a sensitive issue in the real estate and rental housing market because advertisements advertently or inadvertently can signal preferences for certain buyers or tenants. Recent litigation has held publishers, newspapers, the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), real estate agents and brokers accountable for discriminatory ads. Advertising can suggest a preferred buyer or tenant in several ways. Some examples include advertisements or listings that: • Suggest a preferred type of buyer or tenant household; City of Baldwin Park III -1 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments • Use models that indicate a preference or exclusion of a type of resident; • Publish advertisements or listings in certain languages; • Restrict publication to certain types of media or locations so as to indicate a preference. As a rule of thumb, advertisements cannot include discriminatory references that describe current or potential residents, the neighbors or the neighborhood in racial or ethnic terms, or terms suggesting preferences for one group over another (e.g., adults preferred, ideal for married couples with kids, or conveniently located near Catholic church). Lending Initially, home buyers must locate a lender that will work with the buyer to qualify for a home loan. This process generally entails an application, credit check, determination of the home buyer's ability to repay, the maximum amount that may be borrowed and determining the type and terms of the loan. Applicants must provide sensitive information including their gender, ethnicity, income level, age, and familial status. This information is required to be gathered by the Community Reinvestment Act and the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act; however, it does not guarantee that individual loan officers or underwriters will not misuse the information. A report on mortgage lending discrimination by the Urban Land Institute describes four basic stages in wuicu discrimination can occur: • Advertising/outreach stage. Lenders may not have branches in certain locations, not advertise to certain segments of the population, or violate advertising rules with respect to fair housing. • Pre - application stage. Lenders may not provide applicants of different racial and ethnic backgrounds the same types of information as other preferred groups, or may urge some to seek another lender. • Lending stage. Lenders may treat equally qualified individuals in a different manner, giving different loan terms, preferred rates, or denying a loan based on a factor not related to ability to pay aria risk. • Loan administration. Lenders may treat minorities in harsher terms, such as initiating foreclosure proceedings if any payment is late, or by making loans at terms that encourage defaults. Appraisals Banks order appraisal reports to determine whether or not a property is worth the amount of the loan requested. Generally, appraisals are based on the comparable sales of properties surrounding the neighborhood of the subject property. Other factors such as the age of the structure, improvements made and location are also considered. Homes in some neighborhoods with higher concentrations of minorities and poverty concentrations may appraise lower than properties of similar size and quality in neighborhoods with lower concentrations of minorities or low- income households. Taking these factors into consideration when valuing a property in an appraisal causes the arbitrary lowering of property values and restricts the amount of equity and capital City of Baldwin Park III -2 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments available to not only the potential home buyer but also to the current owners in the neighborhood. Disparate treatment in appraisals is difficult to prove since individual appraisers have the latitude within the generally accepted appraisal practices to influence the outcome of the appraisal by factoring in subjective opinions. Real Estate Agents and Sellers Finding a real estate agent is normally the next step in the home buying process. The agent will find the home for the prospective buyer that best fits their needs, desires, and budget based on the amount they are qualified for by the lender. Real estate agents may also intentionally or unintentionally discriminate by steering a potential buyer to particular neighborhoods, by encouraging the buyer to look into certain areas or failing to show the buyer all choices available. Agents may also discriminate by who they agree to represent, who they turn away and the comments they make about their clients. Sellers Even if a real estate agent is following fair housing practices, the current occupant (seller) may not want to sell his /her house to certain purchasers protected under Fair Housing laws or they may want to accept offers only from a preferred group. Oftentimes, sellers are home when agents show the properties to potential buyers and sellers may develop certain biases based upon this contact. The Residential Listing Agreement and Seller's ,, a fluvi_ so y f� orms that sel>l> e rs dust sign disclose their understanding of fair housing laws and practices of discrimination. However, preventing this type of discrimination is difficult because a seller may have multiple offers and choose one based on bias. Insurance Insurance agents have underwriting guidelines which determine whether or not a company will sell insurance to a particular applicant. Currently, underwriting guidelines are not public information; however, consumers have begun to seek access to these underwriting guidelines to learn if certain companies have discriminatory policies, called redlining. Some states renuirP companies to file the underwriting guidelines with the State_. Department of Insurance, making the information public. Texas mandates this reporting and has made some findings regarding discriminatory insurance underwriting. Many insurance companies have traditionally applied strict guidelines, such as not insuring older homes, that disproportionately affect lower income and minority households that can only afford to buy homes in older neighborhoods. A California Department of Insurance (CDI) survey found that less than one percent of the homeowner's insurance available in California is currently offered free from tight restrictions. The CDI has also found that many urban areas are underserved by insurance agencies. Home Loan Activity A key aspect of fair housing choice is equal access to financing for the purchase or improvement of a home. In 1977, the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) was enacted to improve access to credit for all communities, regardless of the race /ethnic or income makeup of its residents. CRA was intended to encourage financial institutions to help City of Baldwin Park III -3 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments meet the credit needs of communities, including low - moderate income people and neighborhoods. Depending on the type of institution and total assets, a lender may be examined by different supervising agencies for its CRA performance. In tandem with the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA), financial institutions with assets exceeding $10 million are required to submit detailed information on the disposition of home loans by applicant characteristics. HMDA data can then be evaluated with respect to lending patterns. This study uses a Chi - Square test to analyze loan approval rates. This statistical test can determine whether loan approval rates are significantly different for one group versus another, but cannot establish the presence of bona fide discrimination. Nonetheless, these statistical tests can certainly help provide direction on potential areas to focus further inquiry and study. During 2008, 3,705 loan applications were filed for housing in Baldwin Park. As seen in Table III -1, 90% of all loan applications were for conventionally - financed home purchase, home improvement or refinance loans. Initial home purchases and refinancing comprised 92.1% of the activity. Home improvement loans comprised only 7.9% of all loan applications as investment in existing properties has slowed throughout the region due to the economic recession and limited equity in existing properties.

The Fannie Mae Foundation commissioned a study of mortgage rates from 1989 - City of Baldwin Park III -4 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments 2001 (Rates and Race: An Analysis of Racial Disparities in Mortgage Rates, by T. Boehm, P. Thistle, A. Schlottman, 2005). The study was published in the Housing Policy and Debate, Volume 17, Issue 1 of 2006. According to the study, the average annual percentage rate (APR) for African Americans was 8.07 %, while the average APR for whites was 7.96 0/0. Although the authors concluded that economically the disparity in interest rates for African Americans resulted in a minimal economic impact, (an increase of seven cents a month per $1,000 of the loan amount), it is was evident that African Americans, when all other factors where controlled, received higher interest rates on their home loans. A significant conclusion of the study was the disparate loan terms for home refinancing for African Americans as compared to their white counterparts, when all other factors (e.g. credit history, loan amount and type, property, etc.) were controlled. African Americans average interest rate for refinancing a home loan was 8.82 %, a much higher rate than whites whose average interest rate was 7.81 %. The difference of 1.01% resulted in African Americans paying on average 71 cents more a month per $1,000 of the borrowed amount, a substantial economic impact as compared to whites over the term of the loan. Clearly African Americans fare much worse in refinancing than whites. The average interest for Hispanics was slightly higher than that of whites as well for home loans, but there was little difference in the average interest rate amongst Hispanics and whites for refinancing. The disparity of higher interest rates for home loans of African Americans and Hispanics, as well as the disparity of higher interest rates for African Americans in refinancing home loans is an impediment. The authors looked at conventional home loans as a subset of all mortgage types analyzed in the study. Once again, the average APR for African Americans for conventional loans was higher for home purchases and also for refinancing of home loans as compared to whites. The average APR amongst Hispanics for conventional loans was also higher than whites, although the gap was not as high as it was for African Americans. Such discriminatory practices in loans for African American and Hispanic homebuyers are impediments to homeownership. (The study did conclude that there was no disparity on the interest rates charged to Hispanics as compared to whites for refinancing home loans). Not only is there empirical evidence of discrimination in the interest rates charged for home loans and refinancing for certain minority groups, but also discrimination in the mortgage rate fees charged for home loans of African Americans and Hispanic borrowers. According to HUD's Office of Policy Development, African Americans and Hispanics pay on average $415 and $365 more, respectively, for closing costs on FHA mortgages as compared to whites, when all other factors such as loan amounts and property values are controlled.' In addition, disparate mortgage fees are charged based on the racial composition of the borrower's neighborhood; borrowers in African American neighborhoods pay on average $120 more for title services and borrowers in primarily Hispanic census tracts pay $110 more compared to borrowers residing in non - minority neighborhoods'. The disparate charge of mortgage interest rates and fees for African Americans and Hispanics borrowers is an impediment to housing choice. 1 Mortgage Interest Rates and Fees, A Study of Closing Costs for FHA Mortgages, HUD Office of Policy Development and Research, by Susan E.

City of Baldwin Park III -5 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments Lending Outcomes This section summarizes lending activity in Baldwin Park during 2008. HMDA data provides some insights regarding the lending patterns in a community. However, the HMDA data is only an indicator of potential problems; it cannot be used to conclude discrimination due to the limitations of the data. Lending Outcomes by Race /Ethnicity and Income. Generally, home loan approval rates increase as household income increases. However, this pattern was not evident for upper- income home purchasers whose approval rate was 8% less than that of middle income purchasers. Across all incomes, approval rates for Asians were generally highest, followed by Hispanics. Those declining to state ethnicity /race or those loans where ethnicity /race information was not reported also had higher than average approval rates. Table III -2 shows loan approval rates for home purchases and refinances by applicant characteristics.

Differences in approval rates for home loan applications among different race and ethnic groups does not necessarily reflect discriminatory practices. Differences could be due to credit scores, employment history, knowledge of the lending process, debt - income ratio, or other factors. Refinance loans are further impacted by the amount of equity available in properties. Due to declining real - estate prices throughout the middle of this decade, home equity has been severely impacted. Lending Outcomes by Tract Characteristics. The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) is intended to encourage regulated financial institutions to help meet the credit needs of entire communities, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. Analyzing lending patterns by neighborhood characteristics can show whether City of Baldwin Park 111 -6 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03/25/10 Fair Housing Choice Anal sy is of Private Sector Impediments significantly fewer home loans are being approved or issued in low /moderate income neighborhoods or neighborhoods with a disproportionately high percentage of minority residents. The lack of lending activity in one or more neighborhoods has been linked to unequal access to credit among different race and ethnic groups and alleged practices of redlining and discrimination. Baldwin Park is a multi - cultural community; therefore, one would not expect to see evidence of redlining. As shown in Table III -3, the approval rate for applications for home purchase and home refinance loans are generally equivalent for all tracts.

Lender Performance and CRA requirements. In 2008, the top ten mortgage lenders received 63% of conventional home mortgage loan applications in Baldwin Park (Table III -4). Among the top lenders, First Mortgage Corp. had the highest approval rate (100 %), followed by JP Morgan Chase Bank (85.7 %), and Countrywide Bank (80.3 %). GMAC Bank had the lowest approval rate (68.8%), followed by Bank of America (69.1 %). Bank of America and Wells Fargo had the highest percentage of withdrawn /closed loans. It can be reasonably concluded that lenders with lower approval rates in 2008 are have adopted more strict lending standards as a result of the fallout from the sub -prime mortgage crisis that emerged in the late 2000s. High withdrawal rates can be attributed to customers starting the application process and deciding not to continue when it became apparent that they would not be approved for the loan.

The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) is intended to encourage regulated financial institutions to help meet the credit needs of entire communities, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. Financial institutions are regulated by various Federal oversight bodies depending on the type of institution and its total assets. Lenders may be examined by different supervising agencies for its CRA performance and general compliance with laws applicable to lending institutions.

As a result of the acquisition of Countrywide, the records of Bank of America and Countrywide were evaluated by the Federal Reserve Board with respect to CRA compliance'. Bank of America received a rating of "outstanding" in its 2006 evaluation, while Countrywide received only a "satisfactory" rating in its most recent 2004 review. The Federal Reserve Board noted that Bank of America would be instituting its CRA policies and procedures at Countrywide; therefore, the CRA performance records of both institutions were consistent with FRB approval of the proposed acquisition of Countrywide. Predatory Lending Predatory lending involves abusive loan practices usually targeting minority homeowners or those with less - than - perfect credit histories. The predatory practices include high fees, hidden costs, unnecessary insurance, and larger repayments due in later years. A common predatory practice is directing borrowers into more expensive and higher fee loans in the "subprime" market, even though they may be eligible for a loan in the "prime" market. Predatory lending is prohibited by a number of state and federal laws. The Fair Housing Act of 1968 requires equal treatment in terms and conditions of housing opportunity and credit regardless of race, religion, color, national origin, family status, or disability. The Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1972 also requires equal treatment in loan ' Federal Reserve Bulletin, 2008, Volume 94. http: / /www.federalreserve.gov/ pubs / bulletin /2008/legal /g208 /oi,der3. htm #nl5 City of Baldwin Park III -9 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments terms and availability of credit for all of the above categories, as well as age, sex, and marital status. Lenders would be in violation of these acts, if they target minority or elderly households to buy higher priced loan products, treat loans for protected classes differently, or have policies or practices that have a disproportionate effect on the protected classes. In addition, the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) requires lenders to inform the borrower about payment schedules, loan payments, prepayment penalties, and the total cost of credit. In 1994, Congress amended TILA and adopted the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act (HOEPA). HOEPA requires that lenders offering high -cost mortgage loans disclose information if the annual percentage rate (APR) is ten points above the prime or if fees are above eight percent of the loan amount. HOEPA also prohibits balloon payments for short -term loans and, for longer covered loans, requires a warning if the lender has a lien on the borrower's home and the borrower could lose the home if they default on the loan payment. Following North Carolina's lead, in September 2001, California became the second state to pass a law banning predatory lending. Codified as AB489 and amended by AB344, the law enables state regulators and the Attorney General to attempt to prevent "predatory" lending practices by authorizing the state to enforce and levy penalties against licensees that do not comply with the provisions of this bill. The law provides protections against predatory lending to consumers across the state with respect to financing of credit insurance, high loan and points, steering and flipping, balloon payments, prepayrr,ent penalties, call provisions, interest rate changes upon default, or encouragement to default when a conflict of interest exists. Foreclosures Foreclosure occurs when homeowners fall behind on one or more scheduled mortgage payments. The foreclosure process can be halted if the homeowner is able to bring their mortgage payments current or if the homeowner sells their home and pays the mortgage off. However, if regular payments cannot be resumed or the debt cannot be resolved, the lender can legally use the foreclosure process to repossess (take over) the home. When this happens, the homeowner must move out of the property. If the home is worth less than the total amount owed on the mortgage loan, a deficiency judgment could be pursued. If that happens, the homeowner would lose their home and also would owe the home lender an additional amount. In the late -2000s the number of foreclosed homes in California hit an all time high. The problem was so severe in its consequences that numerous factors have been attributed for the high incidence of foreclosure, including but not limited to abnormally high housing prices in the early part of the decade, the origination of sub -prime loans to unqualified buyers, the economic recession and job losses. This confluence of negative economic incidents has left most housing markets in the United States in severe decline with historically high rates of foreclosure. Property values have declined significantly —in some cases to pre -2000 levels. Southern California and Los Angeles County, in particular, are characterized by a high percentage of foreclosed homes as many homeowners were unable to keep up with payments. The high foreclosure rate prompted Congress to create the Neighborhood City of Baldwin Park III -10 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analvsis of Private Sector Impediments Stabilization Program (NSP), which is administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to purchase abandoned and foreclosed properties in an effort to stabilize local housing markets that have been targeted for their high risk of foreclosure. The NSP provides grants to every state and certain local communities to purchase foreclosed or abandoned homes and to rehabilitate, resell, or redevelop these homes in order to stabilize neighborhoods and stem the decline of house values of neighboring homes. The program was authorized under Title III of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008. An evaluation of HUD data' assessing the risk of foreclosure in all of the City of Baldwin Park's 2000 Census Block Groups revealed that 35 out of 41 block groups have a risk factor above 7 on a scale of 1 -10. This means that the entire City has a high risk of foreclosure. All 35 of the Census Block Groups rated between 7 -10 would qualify for NSP assistance because those areas have populations that predominantly earn less than 120% of the Area Median Income. The City of Baldwin Park Housing Department is actively engaged in the NSP program and has acquired properties using NSP funds. The high incidence of foreclosure and the housing crisis in general represent a system- wide collapse of the housing market that has resulted in numerous national, state and local efforts to reform virtually every aspect of housing acquisition and finance. Due to the widespread and complex nature of the foreclosure crisis, it is not possible to point to particular lenders or lending practices within the City that may be unnecessarily contributing to the high incidence of foreclosure. Therefore, foreclosure is not included in this analysis as an impediment to Fair Housing Choice. Agency Coordination Many agencies are involved in overseeing real estate industry practices and the practices of the agents involved. A portion of this oversight involves ensuring that fair housing laws are understood and complied with. The following organizations have limited oversight within the real estate market, and some of their policies, practices, and programs are described. National Association of Realtors (NAR). The National Association of Realtors (NAR) is a consortium of realtors which represent the real estate industry at the local, state, and national level. As a trade association, members receive a range of membership benefits. However, in order to become a member, NAR members must subscribe to its Code of Ethics and a Model Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan developed by HUD. The term Realtor thus identifies a licensed real estate professional who pledges to conduct business in keeping with the spirit and letter of the Code of Ethics. Realtors subscribe the NAR's Code of Ethics, which imposes obligations upon Realtors regarding their active support for equal housing opportunity. Article 10 of the NAR Code of Ethics provides that "Realtors shall not deny equal professional services to any person for reasons of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. Realtors shall not be a party to any plan or agreement to discriminate against any person or persons on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial ' U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, 2008. http://wv,rw.huduser.org/publications/commdevl/nsp2arget.html City of Baldwin Park III -11 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03/25110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments status, or national origin." REALTORS® shall not print, display or circulate any statement or advertisement with respect to the selling or renting of a property that indicates any preference, limitations or discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin." The NAR has created a diversity certification, "At Home with Diversity: One America" to be granted to licensed real estate professionals who meet eligibility requirements and complete the NAR "At Home with Diversity" course. The certification signals to customers that the real estate professional has been trained on working with the diversity of today's real estate markets. The coursework provides valuable business planning tools to assist real estate professionals in reaching out and marketing to a diverse housing market. The NAR course focuses on diversity awareness, building cross - cultural skills, and developing a business diversity plan. In July 1999, the NAR Diversity Program received the HUD "Best Practices" award. California Association of Realtors (CAR). The California Association of Realtors (CAR) is a trade association of 92,000 realtors statewide. As members of CAR, Realtors subscribe to a strict code of ethics. CAR has recently created the position of Equal Opportunity /Cultural Diversity Coordinator. CAR holds three meetings per year for its general membership, and meetings typically include sessions on fair housing issues. They also maintain fair housing and ethics information on their website: http: // secure. dre. ca. gov /publicasp /unlicenseddnr.asp. The licensure status of *n Jlz lu l agents can be reviewed at: http:/ /secure dre ca.Sov /PublicASP /pr Ii fo.asp and this web site includes any complaints or disciplinary action against the agent. Realtor Associations Serving Baldwin Park. Realtor associations are generally the first line of contact for real estate agents who need continuing education courses, legal forms, career development, and other daily work necessities. The frequency and availability of courses varies among these associations, and local association membership is generally determined by where the broker is located. Complaints involving agents or brokers may be filed with these associations. Monitoring of services by these associations is difficult as detailed statistics of the education/services these agencies provide or statistical information pertaining to the members is rarely available. The West San Gabriel Valley Association of Realtors (WSGVAR) serves the Baldwin Park area. California Department of Real Estate (DRE). The California Department of Real Estate (DRE) is the licensing authority for real estate brokers and salespersons. DRE has adopted education requirements that include courses in ethics and in fair housing. To renew a real estate license, each licensee is required to complete 45 hours of continuing education, including three hours in each of the four mandated areas: Agency, Ethics, Trust Fund, and Fair Housing. The fair housing course contains information that enables an agent to identify and avoid discriminatory practices when providing real estate services. DRE investigates written complaints received from the public alleging possible violations of the Real Estate Law or the Subdivided Lands Law by licensees or sub- dividers. DRE also monitors real estate licensees conducting business as mortgage lenders and mortgage brokers. If an inquiry substantiates a violation, DRE may suspend or revoke a license, issue a restricted license, or file an Order to Desist and City of Baldwin Park III -12 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analvsis of Private Sector Impediments Refrain. Violations may result in civil injunctions, criminal prosecutions, or substantial fines. The Department publishes monthly a list of names of persons and businesses which have been conducting real estate activities without a license. DRE reviews Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC &Rs) for all subdivisions of five or more lots, or condominiums of five or more units. The review includes a wide range of issues, including compliance with fair housing law. CC &Rs are restrictive covenants that involve voluntary agreements, which run with the land they are associated with. In the past, CC &Rs were used to exclude minorities from equal access to housing. DRE reviews CC &Rs and they must be approved before issuing a final subdivision public report. This report is required before a real estate broker or anyone can sell the units, and each prospective buyer must be issued a copy of the report. The California Organized Investment Network (COIN). COIN is a collaboration of the California Department of Insurance, the insurance industry, community economic development organizations, and community advocates. This collaboration was formed in 1996 at the request of the insurance industry as an alternative to state legislation that would have required insurance companies to invest in underserved communities, similar to the federal Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) that applies to the banking industry. COIN is a voluntary program that facilitates insurance industry investments providing profitable returns to investors and economic /social benefits to underserved communities. B. Rental Housing Similar to the owner - occupied market, a major challenge to ensuring fair housing in the rental market is the complexity of the process. Stages in the process of renting a home include advertising, pre- application inquiries, viewing the apartment, criteria for qualifying for the lease, lease conditions, and administration of the lease. The process becomes even more difficult and subjective in a tight rental market, where the landlord has numerous options for choosing the future tenant based on subjective factors. The Rental Process While the process of renting an apartment or home may be less expensive and burdensome up front than the home - buying process, it may still be just as time - consuming and potential renters may still face discrimination during various stages of the rental process. Some of the more notable ways in which tenants may face discriminatory treatment are highlighted below. Advertising The main sources of information on rentals are newspaper advertisements, word of mouth, signs, apartment guides, the Internet, and apartment brokers. Recent litigation has held publishers, newspapers, and others accountable for discriminatory ads. Advertising can suggest a preferred tenant by suggesting preferred residents, using models, publishing in certain languages, or restricting media or locations for advertising. Advertisements cannot include discriminatory references that describe current or potential residents, the neighbors or the neighborhood in racial or ethnic terms, or other terms suggesting City of Baldwin Park III -13 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments preferences (e.g., adults preferred, ideal for married couples with kids, or conveniently located near a Catholic church). Viewing the Unit Viewing the unit is the most obvious place where potential renters may encounter discrimination because landlords or managers may discriminate based on race or disability, judge on appearance whether a potential renter is reliable or may violate any rules, or make any other subjective judgments. For example, if a student is wearing a T- shirt with a heavy metal band on the front, a landlord may suspect that the renter could play loud music disturbing to other tenants. If a prospective tenant arrives with many children, the landlord may be concerned that the children may disturb other renters. In addition, the prospective tenant may also have an accent or wear religious symbols or jewelry which may again play in the decision to rent the unit. Qualifying for the Lease Landlords may ask the potential renters to provide credit references, lists of previous addresses and landlords, and employment history and salary. The criteria for tenant selection, if any, are typically not known to those seeking to rent a home. An initial payment consisting of first and last months' rent and security deposit are typically required. To deter "less- than - desirable" tenants, a landlord may ask for an initial payment or security deposit higher than for others Tenants may also face differential treatment when vacating the unit. The landlord may choose to return a smaller portion of the security deposit to some tenants, claiming excessive wear and tear. The Lease Most apartments are rented under either a lease agreement or a month -to -month rental agreement. A lease is favorable from a tenant's point of view for two reasons: the tenant is assured the right to live there for a specific period of time and the tenant has an established rent during that period. Most other provisions of a lease protect the landlord. The lease agreement usually includes the rental rate, required deposit, length of occupancy, apartment rules, and termination requirements. Typically, the rental agreement is a standard form for all units in the same building. However, enforcement of rules contained in the lease agreement may not be standard. A landlord may choose to strictly enforce rules for certain tenants based on their race /ethnicity, children, or a disability — raising fair housing concerns. Rental Housing Services The City of Baldwin Park has contracted with Housing Rights Center (HRC) to provide fair housing and related services. Established in 1980, HRC is a private, non - profit and community based organization which implements the following fair housing programs for communities throughout Los Angeles County: Community -Based Mediation. HRC provides trained volunteer mediators to resolve conflicts between landlords and tenants (including mobile homes), transportation users and the transit system, and others. HRC contracts with Los Angeles County to provide mediation in small claims and unlawful detainer City of Baldwin Park III -14 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03/25/10 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments lawsuits in County courts. Education /Outreach. HRC provides education and outreach services to landlords and tenants, Realtors, newspapers, service organizations, schools, English as a- second language participants, and others interested in learning about fair housing laws. HRC also provides HUD certified counseling to homeowners who are delinquent on FHA loans or seniors interested in reverse equity mortgage loan programs. Fair housing workshops and newsletters are also provided on a quarterly basis. • Senior Services. HRC actively and successfully mediates conflicts between seniors and Social Security, Medi -Cal, utility companies, collection agencies, neighbors, and others. HRC also provides a Care Referral Service, offers help in filing for HEAP and Homeowner /Renter Assistance, and maintains a list of senior housing and care homes. • Alternative Dispute Resolution. The California Dispute Resolution Act of 1986 provides the authority for mediation in the legal court system. Housing Rights Center has a contract with the County of Los Angeles to provide mediation with small claims and unlawful detainer lawsuits in all of the courts in Los Angeles County. • Mobilehome Mediation. Specialized problem solving based on Mobilehome Residency Law that reflects the dual ownership and unique life style of mobile home communities. In -park workshops are provided to assist residents to file for refunds on utility and property tax burdens. • Transportation Information, Conciliation and Mediation. HRC also provides a wide range of information, conciliation, and mediation services to transportation users who have conflicts with transit providers concerning compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. During athree -year period (r 1 2005- ZG08), HRC assisted residents -in the resolution of various landlord/tenant issues. Most complaints involved tenant evictions (29 0/0), followed by rights and responsibilities (30 %), habitability /repairs (22 0/6), deposits (10 %), rent increases (3 0/6), and other complaints (5 %). Agency Coordination Many agencies oversee the apartment rental process and related practices. This oversight includes ensuring that fair housing laws are understood and complied with. The following organizations have limited oversight within the rental housing market, and some of their policies are described. California Apartment Association (CAA) CAA is the country's largest statewide trade association for rental property owners and managers. Incorporated in 1941 to serve rental property owners and managers throughout California, CAA represents rental housing owners and professionals who manage more than 1.5 million rental units. CAA has developed the California Certified City of Baldwin Park III -15 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Private Sector Impediments Residential Manager (CORM) program to provide a comprehensive series of courses geared towards improving the approach, attitude and professional skills of on -site property managers and other interested individuals. The CCRM program consists of 31.5 hours of training that includes fair housing and ethics along with other courses. National Association of Residential Property Managers ( NARPM) NARPM promotes standards of business ethics, professionalism, and fair housing practices in the residential property management field. NARPM is an association of real estate professionals experienced in managing single - family and small residential properties. The North Los Angeles Chapter covers Baldwin Park. In addition, NARPM certifies its members in the standards and practices of the residential property management industry and promotes continuing professional education. NARPM offers 3 professional designations: Residential Management Professional, RMPO, Master Property Manager, MPMO, and Certified Residential Management Company, CRMCO. These certifications require educational courses in fair housing. City of Baldwin Park III -16 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policv Impediments A. Land Use Policy General Plan Land use policies are fundamental to ensuring housing opportunities. The Baldwin Park General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance determine the amount, location, type, and density of housing in the City of Baldwin Park. Land use policies that do not promote a variety of housing options can impede housing choice. The City of Baldwin Park allows housing in four (4) of its nine (9) land use designations as shown in Table IV -1, implemented through residential zones or zones with certain permitted residential uses. Table IV -1 Land Use Designations Allowing Residential Uses Desi' nation ' Code Zone Description The R -1 - 7,500 zone provides areas for the Low- Density development of detached single - family dwellings on Single - Family lots greater than or equal to 7,500 square feet. The zone 7,50 0 7,50Residential provides larger lots and separation from incompatible Single- Family land uses. Residential The R -1 zone provides areas for the development of Single - Family detached single- family dwellings. It is also intended to R -1 Residential protect and stabilize desirable characteristics of single- family residential areas. The R -G zone provides an environment suitable for Garden Multi- Garden Multi- both small -lot detached or attached dwelling units Family R -G Family where more than one unit may be built on a lot. The Residential Residential intent is to promote desirable characteristics for medium- density neighborhoods. The R -3 zone provides opportunities for persons to live, Multi- Family High Density in small -lot single- family developments and those Residential R -3 Multi - Family containing multiple units, such as apartments or Residential condominiums with common open space and other shared amenities. The MU -1 zone provides for development that integrates commercial and residential uses within a large district, with an emphasis on retail, service, MU -1 Mixed Use 1 professional office, entertainment, and restaurant business oriented toward street frontages and serving as Dwelling the primary use, and medium- and high- density Units residential uses built to complement such uses. The MU -2 zone is established to create opportunities for MU -2 Mixed Use 2 mixed -use developments that emphasize medium- and high- density residential uses, with limited commercial, institutional, office, and service uses. S Sources: Baldwin Park General Plan, Baldwin Park Zoning Ordinance, 2009. Housing Element The Housing Element is one of seven mandated elements of the City of Baldwin Park's General Plan. The State of California housing element law, enacted in 1969 and recently amended in 2008 by Senate Bill 2, requires that local governments adequately plan to City of Baldwin Park IV -1 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Anal sy is of Public Policy Impediments meet the existing and projected housing needs of all economic segments of their community. As of December, 2009, the City of Baldwin Park Housing Element 2008 -2014 was in draft form and was determined to be out of compliance by the State Department of Housing and Community Development. Therefore, references to the Housing Element shall be to the 2000 -2005 Housing Element adopted as part of the Baldwin Park General Plan on November 20, 2002, The Housing Element adopted identifies the following policy goals: 1. Conserving and improving the existing supply of affordable housing; 2. Providing adequate housing sites for a variety of housing types; 3. Assisting in the development of affordable housing; removing governmental constraints to the development of housing; and 4. Promoting equal housing opportunities. To implement these policies, the Housing Element contains 19 different housing initiatives designed to support and implement the City's housing goals. Where relevant to this Analysis of Impediments, housing programs which affect Fair Housing are described in this report. The Housing Element is reviewed by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), for compliance with State Law. An important component of HCD certification is an implied determination that the City's development goals, policies and regulations do not constrain maintenance, improvement and development of housing for all income levels, including individuals with disabilities. HCD is engaged in the process of reviewing the City's updated Housing Element 2008 -2014 for compliance with State Law. The City is optimistic that the current draft Housing Element will meet the provisions of the State Law. Approval of the updated Housing Element will affirm that the City evaluated its public policies as potential constraints to the maintenance, improvement, and development of housing and has adequately removed or mitigated potential constraints through planned housing policies and programs. Housing Opportunities Housing Element law requires that cities facilitate and encourage the provision of a range in types and prices of housing for all economic segments and special needs groups. Local government policies that limit or exclude housing for persons with disabilities, the lower income, homeless persons, families with children or other groups may violate the Fair Housing Act.

Cam: Not permitted Single and Multi family Detached single- family dwelling units are permitted in all residential zones. However, the City recognizes that this can have the effect of using up scarce land available for multi- family development with lower - density housing. Residential neighborhoods in Baldwin Park are very well established, and future development activity in this fully developed community is expected to occur outside of the low- density residential neighborhoods. In particular, the City promotes development in mixed -use areas of downtown. The City's strategy is to intensify and promote residential opportunities in downtown to leverage access to transportation and encourage higher- density development in a mixed -use setting. Multiple- family dwellings and condominiums are permitted uses in R -G, R -3, MU -1 and MU -2 zones. As discussed later in this chapter, I-ICD typically requires jurisdictions which require conditional use permits for multiple- family in residential zones to eliminate the requirement. The use of a conditional use permit can at times constrain the development of multiple- family housing, because the project is subject to a public hearing and can often be appealed to the City Council. The City of Baldwin Park has incorporated this requirement into its Zoning Ordinance; therefore, the City is in compliance with State Laws pertaining to the zoning of multi- family developments. Manufactured Housing State law requires cities to permit manufactured housing and mobile homes on lots zoned for single - family detached dwellings provided that the manufactured home meets the City of Baldwin Park IV -3 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Anal sy is of Public Policy Impediments location and design criteria established in the Zoning Ordinance.' The City's Zoning Ordinance explicitly defines manufactured housing as follows: § 153.040.060 - Manufactured Housing. Manufactured housing units shall comply with the following limitations and standards: A. A manufactured housing unit shall be considered a single - family dwelling, and is therefore subject to the development standards set forth in Part 1 of §153.040 Residential Zones, except as provided for within the development standards set forth in Part 4 of §153.040 Residential Zones. B. If a mobile home was constructed after October 1, 1976, it shall be certified pursuant to the National Mobile Home Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974, evidence of which shall be provided to the Director of Community Development in a manner approved by the Director. C. A manufactured home shall be installed and maintained upon a permanent, continuous, exterior, masonry or concrete foundation. Mobile Home Parks State law requires that jurisdictions accommodate a mobile home park within their community; however, a city, county, or a city and county may require a use permit. A mobile home park refers to a mobile home development built according to the requirements of the Health and Safety Code, and intended for use and sale as a mobile home condominium, cooperative park, or mobile home planned unit development.' In compliance with State law, the City permits mobile homes parks, subject to a Conditional Use Permit, within all residential zones, including the R -1- 7,500, R -1, R -G and R -3 zones established in the Zoning Ordinance. Accessory Units Enacted in 2002, AB1866 requires cities to use a ministerial process to consider and approve accessory dwelling units in residential zones.' According to HCD, a local government must "...accept the application and approve or disapprove the application ministerially without discretionary review..." In order for an application to be ministerial, the process must apply predictable, objective, fixed, quantifiable, and clear standards. These standards must be administratively applied to the application and not otherwise be subject to discretionary decision - making by a legislative body. The City allows accessory units in all residential zones, permitted by right. Therefore, the City is in compliance with AB1866. Residential Care Facilities The Lanterman Developmental Disabilities Services Act declares that mentally, physically, and developmentally disabled persons, children and adults who require supervised care are entitled to live in normal residential settings. State law requires that licensed residential care facilities serving six or fewer persons be treated as a residential use under zoning, be allowed by right in all residential zones, and not be subject to more stringent ' California Government Code, § 65852.3 z California Government Code § 65852.7 a California Government Code § 65852.2 City of Baldwin Park IV -4 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policy Impediments development standards, fees, taxes, and permit procedures than required of the same type of housing (e.g., detached single- family dwellings) in the same zone.' Map 4 illustrates the distribution of such facilities throughout the City of Baldwin Park. The City allows licensed residential care facilities serving six (6) or fewer clients as a permitted use in all residential zones. As of 2009, 17 licensed residential care facilities provide accommodations to 191 residents. Residential care facilities serving seven (7) or more clients are allowable in all residential zones subject to a Conditional Use Permit. 4 California Welfare and Institutions Code, §5000 et. seq.

The courts have also passed subsequent rulings.' To that end, State Law (SB2) requires jurisdictions to designate a zone and permitting process to facilitate the siting of such uses. If a conditional use permit is required, the process to obtain the conditional use permit may not unduly constrain the siting and operation of such facilities. The City's Zoning Ordinance provides for emergency shelters in the I -C zone as a permitted use. Emergency shelters provide short -term shelter for homeless persons. Transitional housing provides longer -term housing (up to two years), coupled with supportive services such as job training and counseling, to individuals and families who are transitioning to permanent housing. Siting for emergency and transitional housing is based on the character of development (residential, commercial, etc.), not the population these developments serve. Consistent with State law, small transitional housing serving six or fewer people is considered a regular residential use and permitted in all zones where residential uses are permitted. Transitional housing for more than seven people that is operated as a residential care facility is conditionally permitted in all residential zones and the C1 and C2 zones. Transitional housing that functions as a regular multi- family use (such as apartments) is permitted where multi - family uses are permitted. D. Development Policy Development Standards The General Plan provides policy guidance for where housing can be located. Moreover, the Zoning Ordinance establishes minimum residential development standards to ensure the construction of quality housing, to preserve and protect neighborhoods, and to further broader City land use goals.

City of San Diego, 55 Cal.App.4th 1098 City of Baldwin Park Iv -7 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policy Impediments As a precondition to the HCD certification of a City's Housing Element, HCD will make a determination that the City's development standards adequately facilitate and encourage the construction of housing for all income levels, including housing affordable to very low, low, and moderate income households. As part of this effort, the Department reviewed the City's requirements included in the 2000 -2005 Housing Element and deemed that such requirements would not preclude the City from addressing its housing obligations under State law. Local Government Fees Since the passage of Proposition 13 in 1978, local governments have had to diversify their revenue sources. As reliance on General Fund revenues declined, local governments began charging service fees and impact fees to pay for City services needed to support the development of new housing. The City currently charges fees and assessments to cover the costs of processing permits and providing services for residential projects. Development fees depend on the location, project complexity, and cost of mitigating environmental impacts. Table IV -4 provides the most common development fees charged for new housing. Fees range from approximately $16,446 for mobile homes to $32,275 for a 5 -unit apartment development and to $20,835 for a single- family dwelling. Additional building and engineering fees apply. Altogether, fees comprise 12% of the median sales price of a home and 50% of mobile home prices. The City charges planning fees to process and review permits for residential developments. Some Baldwin Park fees were adjusted in 2008, for the first time in 18 years. These fee increases are reflective of higher costs to complete administrative review of documents and applications. In order for fee increases and proposed fees to meet legal standards, those fees cannot exceed the actual cost to provide the related services (including staff time and overhead). Revised fees in Baldwin Park are consistent with State law and do not exceed actual costs of administrative processing.

City of Baldwin Park IV-8 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policy Impediments State law allows local governments to charge fees necessary to recover the reasonable cost of providing services. State law also allows local governments to charge impact fees provided the fee and the amount have a reasonable nexus to the burden imposed on local governments. While the fees in Baldwin Park constitute a percentage of housing sales prices, the fees are necessary to provide an adequate level of services and mitigate the impacts of housing development. To facilitate affordable housing development and to off- set the impact of these fees on development costs, the City has the ability to "gap- finance" projects by utilizing various revenue sources. Building Codes Building codes are enacted to ensure the construction of quality housing and further public health and safety. Ensuring that buildings are accessible to people with disabilities is an important way to improve fair housing. However, the rigid adherence to non- essential codes may indirectly create discriminatory impacts on people with disabilities. The following f�1.SC11.SSP_..S the Citv's building codes and applicability to persons with __. disabilities. The City of Baldwin Park adopted the 2007 edition of the California Building Code, based upon the 2006 International Building Code with local amendments. California cities are required to adopt the California Building Standards Code (Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations). The Code is a set of uniform health and safety codes covering building, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, fire safety, and other issues. Uniform codes are considered the minimum acceptable standards for health and safety. The California Building Standards Commission updates these codes every three years based on updates to uniform codes adopted by professional associations (such as the ICBC). State law allows cities to add local, more restrictive, amendments to the California Building Code, provided such amendments are reasonably necessary to address local climatic, geological, or topographic conditions. The City has adopted local amendments to address things such as fire hazards and seismic conditions. None of these amendments directly or indirectly limits the type of housing opportunities available to disabled people nor limits access to housing. All local amendments are intended to strengthen and enhance building and safety standards to provide safer housing opportunities and disabled access to housing in excess of California's current requirements. Accessibility Standards Cities that use federal funds must meet federal accessibility guidelines that accommodate people with disabilities. For new construction and substantial rehabilitation, at least 5% of the units must be accessible to persons with mobility impairments and an additional 20/0 of the units must be accessible to persons with sensory impairments. New multiple- family housing must also be built so that: 1) the public and common use portions of such units are readily accessible to and usable by disabled persons; 2) the doors allowing passage into and within such units can accommodate wheelchairs; and 3) all units contain adaptive design features.' ' Section 804(f)(3)(C) of the Fair Housing Act City of Baldwin Park IV-9 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policy Impediments The Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) also recommends, but does not require, that the design, construction and alteration of housing units incorporate, wherever practical, the concept of visitability. This recommendation is in addition to requirements of Section 504 and the Fair Housing Act. Recommended construction practices include wide enough openings for bathrooms and interior doorways and at least one accessible means of egress /ingress for each unit.' The City's adopted Building Code contains and incorporates the latest accessibility standards promulgated by the state and federal government. The City checks plans for compliance with State and Federal accessibility law so that privately owned and publicly assisted housing with four or more units meets accessibility requirements of the Fair Housing Act. The City of Baldwin Park enforces all federal and state accessibility laws but does not require accessibility standards in excess of state and federal law. Reasonable Accommodation Because a significant portion of the Baldwin Park housing stock was built well before the advent of modern accessibility standards, there are times when residents need to modify their home to allow access by a person with a disability. The City encourages property owners to install features that accommodate people with disabilities (e.g., ramp to the front door). Such requests are approved upon payment of building permit and plan check fees, as applicable. Depending on the modifications to be made, the City also may require the applicant to apply for a zoning variance costing $1,500. In 2001, the State Office of the Attorney General issued a letter encouraging local governments to adopt a reasonable accommodation procedure.' HCD has also urged the same. The federal Fair Housing Act and California Fair Employment and Housing Act impose an affirmative duty on local governments to make reasonable accommodation when such accommodation may be necessary to afford disabled persons an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling. The State Attorney also provided guidance on the preferred procedure. The Fair Housing Act, as amended in 1988, requires that cities and counties provide reasonable accommodation to rules, policies, practices and procedures where such accommodation may be necessary to afford individuals with disabilities equal housing opportunities. While fair housing laws intend that all people have equal access to housing, the law also recognizes that people with disabilities may need extra tools to achieve equality. Reasonable accommodation is one of the tools intended to further housing opportunities for people with disabilities. For developers and providers of housing for people with disabilities who are often confronted with siting or use restrictions, reasonable accommodation provides a means of requesting from the local government flexibility in the application of land use and zoning regulations or, in some instances, even a waiver of certain restrictions or requirements because it is necessary to achieve equal access to housing. Cities and counties are required to consider requests for accommodations related to housing for people with disabilities and provide the accommodation when it is determined to be "reasonable" based on fair housing laws and the case law interpreting the statutes. 'HUD Directive, Number 00 -09. ' State Office of Attorney General, May 15, 2001 City of Baldwin Park IV -10 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policv Impediments State law allows for a statutorily based four -part analysis to be used in evaluating requests for reasonable accommodation related to land use and zoning matters and can be incorporated into reasonable accommodation procedures. This analysis gives great weight to furthering the housing needs of people, with disabilities and also considers the impact or effect of providing the requested accommodation on the City and its overall zoning scheme. Developers and providers of housing for people with disabilities must be ready to address each element of the following four -part analysis: • The housing that is the subject of the request for reasonable accommodation is for people with disabilities as defined in federal or state fair housing laws; • The reasonable accommodation requested is necessary to make specific housing available to people with disabilities who are protected under fair housing laws; • The requested accommodation will not impose an undue financial or administrative burden on the local government; and • The requested accommodation will not result in a fundamental alteration in the local zoning code. — To create a process for making requests for reasonable accommodation to land use and zoning decisions and procedures regulating the siting, funding, development and use of housing for people with disabilities the City created a reasonable accommodation ordinance as part of the comprehensive Zoning Code update. The City now provides notice to the public of the availability of an accommodation process at all counters where applications are made for a permit, license or other authorization for siting, funding, development or use of housing and on the City's website. Permit Processing Development permit procedures are designed to ensure that residential development proceeds in an orderly manner so as to ensure the public's health, safety, comfort, convenience, and general welfare. Although permit processing procedures are a necessary step, unduly burdensome procedures can subject developers to considerable uncertainty, lengthy delays, and public hearings that cumulatively make a project financially infeasible. State law requires communities work toward improving the efficiency of building permit and review processes by providing one -stop processing, thereby eliminating the necessary duplication of effort. The Permit Streamlining Act helped reduced governmental delays by - -- limiting processing time in most cases to one year and requiring agencies to specify the information needed to complete an acceptable application.' The City development approval process is designed to accommodate, not hinder, development. The City of Baldwin Park is committed to processing a project application within 30 days of submittal to deem a project application complete or incomplete. Once a project is deemed complete, coordination reports are prepared and the appropriate City departments and non -city agencies are consulted for review and comment. Subsequent to receiving and incorporating the comments from other departments and agencies, the environmental review process is undertaken by the planning department. Subsequent to 9 Government Code Section 65920 et seq. City of Baldwin Park IV -11 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policy Impediments the environmental review, the project is scheduled for consideration by the Planning Commission at a public hearing. The project is then either approved or denied. If the project is approved, an approval letter, including the conditions of approval, is sent to the applicant. The project only proceeds to the City Council if it has been denied by the Planning Commission and is being appealed by the applicant. The project approval process is identical for single- family and multiple- family residential projects. If a housing project does not require a discretionary approval (four or fewer dwelling units requires plan check approval only), the average time for processing a plan check is 30 days. If the project requires a discretionary approval as previously described, the process, due to noticing requirements, project revisions, and the generation of staff reports, typically takes eight to twelve weeks. If the project requires a legislative act by the City Council such as a General Plan Amendment or Zone Change in conjunction with the discretionary project, an additional eight to ten weeks is typically required to allow for preparation for and scheduling of the public hearing. As supported by reasonable processing times, and the relative facility of permit procedure, the City is processing and permit procedures are not deemed to constrain the development of housing. Assessment HCD reviews development processing procedures to ensure that such procedures facilitate and encourage the construction of housing for all income levels. HCD often considers that a conditional use permit for multi - family housing subjects the project to unfounded neighborhood criticism that can often lead to rejection of a project that otherwise complies with City regulations. The City is committed to providing sites that are capable of providing housing accommodation that will meet its fair share of the Regional Housing Need Assessment (RHNA). The removal or mitigation of impediments that prevent achievement of this goal is essential. State law prohibits a local agency from disapproving a low income housing development, or imposing conditions that make the development infeasible, unless one of six conditions exists. Three conditions are of most importance: 1) the project would have an unavoidable impact on health and safety which cannot be mitigated; 2) the neighborhood already has a disproportionately high number of low income families; or 3) the project is inconsistent with the general plan and the housing element is in compliance with state law."' Community Representation The City values citizen input on how well city government serves its residents. The City Council relies on its Planning Commission, Housing Commission, advisory commissions and boards to provide advice and recommendations in areas of City services. Baldwin Park makes an effort to ensure that advisory boards and commissions reflect the diversity of the City's residents. Boards, commissions, and advisory committees that have responsibility for land use, building, and other policies that could affect fair housing choice include: • Planning Commission; and 10 Government Code Section 65589.5 City of Baldwin Park IV -12 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policy Impediments • Housing Commission. Public Housing Authority (PHA) Tenant Selection Procedures An examination of the City of Baldwin Park Housing Authority's tenant selection procedures did not reveal any impediments to fair housing choice. Based on information provided by the Housing Authority, no complaints were received from prospective tenants alleging discrimination or unfair practices in the Housing Authority's selection of tenants to occupy public housing projects. Residential Anti- Displacement Policy It is the policy of the City of Baldwin Park to comply with the requirements of Section 104(d) of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 with respect to the prevention and minimization of residential displacement as a result of the expenditure of HUD assistance. E. Housing — Employment— Transportation Linkage The City of Baldwin Park has numerous plans that impact housing opportunity, provision of public services, and access to public transit within the community. These plans include the City's General Plan, Housing Element, Consolidated Plan, Redevelopment Implementation Plan, and County Housing Authority Plan. This section first provides details on how the City of Baldwin Park and other agencies further fair housing for City residents through housing programs, employment, and services. The section concludes with an analysis of transit policies and services to determine if there are impediments to fair housing that are apparent as a result of the locations and concentrations of housing and employment centers as related to public transportation routes in the City. Housing Programs The Housing Element sets forth various housing goals for the community, accompanied by many implementing policies and programs. The following briefly describes rental assistance, homeownership assistance, and housing rehabilitation programs currently underway in the City of Baldwin Park. Rental Assistance. The Baldwin Park Housing Authority is a federally- funded agency that administers housing assistance programs for qualified very low income families, disabled people, and seniors. Section 8, a rent subsidy program, offers very low income households the opportunity to obtain affordable, privately -owned rental housing on the open rental market. Section 8 tenants pay a minimum of 30% of their income for rent and the Housing Authority pays the difference to the negotiated payment standard established by HUD. As of November 2009, 555 households in Baldwin Park were utilizing Section 8 vouchers. However, the demand for affordable housing far outpaces available financial resources. As of November 2009, 836 families were on the Baldwin Park waiting list. The estimated wait time for a Section 8 voucher is approximately 5 years. City of Baldwin Park IV -13 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policy Impediments The Housing Authority has one (1) public housing complex known as McNeil Manor. This 12 -unit complex is owned and operated by the Baldwin Park Housing Authority. As of November, 2009, the complex is fully occupied and there is one (1) household on the waiting list. Homeownership Assistance. Financial lending institutions offer homeownership programs. The City cooperates with other organizations to increase homeownership options. Low- and moderate - income households seeking to purchase a home in Baldwin Park can apply for home purchase assistance through the City of Baldwin Park First Time Homebuyer Program. The program consists of a maximum $50,000 deferred payment second mortgage loan. Homebuyers must contribute 1.5% of the purchase price as a down payment to qualify. Housing Rehabilitation. Housing rehabilitation is an important means to improve the individual properties as well as maintain the quality of life in our neighborhoods. The City's Housing Department implements the Home Improvement Loan and Grant Program to provide immediate monetary resources needed to assist very iow, iow, and moderate income owner- occupants to make necessary repairs to their homes. The grant program provides a maximum of $10,000 and the loan program provides a maximum of $45,000 in the form of a 3% amortized loan with monthly repayment to a City - approved escrow company. The City also operates an aggressive code enforcement program to ensure the health and safety of all residents. Employment and Economic Development Certain areas of Baldwin Park have historically suffered from blighting conditions which have resulted in a lack of economic investment, deteriorated infrastructure, poor neighborhoods and housing, and higher prevalence of social problems, including crime. These factors often impact the viability of local neighborhood businesses that can provide jobs approximate to the homes of low- and moderate - income residents. To address these concerns, the City has adopted six (6) redevelopment project areas, described below, and shown in Map 5 to address these conditions. West Ramona Redevelopment Project. The West Ramona Redevelopment Project was adopted on September 6, 1979 and amended on September 19, 1984. It consists of 14 acres located along Ramona Boulevard between the western City limits and Baldwin Park Boulevard . This was a section of the former Pacific Electric Red Car right of way. The project area is built out for all intents and purposes, mostly developed with multifamily residential and a small commercial retail use. Puente - Merced Redevelopment Project. The Puente - Merced Redevelopment Project was adopted on August 16, 1978, amended on June 16 and December 5, 1984, and is comprised of 17 acres. Located near the I -10 freeway at Merced and Puente Avenues, this project area mainly consists of the Baldwin Park Towne Center that is anchored by the new Home Depot and San Gabriel Valley Hotel and includes Starbucks, Guadalajara Grill, McDonald's and Denny's. City of Baldwin Park N -14 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policy Impediments San Gabriel River Redevelopment Project. The San Gabriel River Redevelopment Project was adopted December 2, 1976 and comprises 189 acres of primarily industrial uses. It is located in the northwest part of the City, along the 605 Freeway between Live Oak Avenue the San Gabriel River and Los Angeles Street. Central Business District Redevelopment Project (CBD). The Central Business District Redevelopment Project Area was adopted February 3, 1982, amended on May 19, 2004 and consists of 130 acres along Maine Avenue between Ramona Boulevard and Los Angeles Street . It exhibits a variety of land uses. There are tremendous opportunities for commercial and residential uses along Maine Avenue and industrial uses in the eastern portion of the project area. The Metrolink Station is in the project area near the downtown civic center. Delta Redevelopment Project Area. The Delta Redevelopment Project Area, adopted on December 21, 1983, is comprised of 22 acres and located in the southwest portion of the City at the intersection of the I -10 and I -605 freeways. The principal land uses in the area are industrial, governmental and some open space. This project is built out. Sierra Vista Redevelopment Project Area. The Sierra Vista Redevelopment Project Area, adopted on July 2, 1986 and amended on December 3, 1997, �s the newest and largest project area. It consists of 500 acres along both sides of the I -10 freeway. There is also a small, non - contiguous area located east of the Redevelopment Project Area. The project area has a mix of land uses that include industrial, commercial and multi-family residential. One of the main objectives of the Redevelopment Plan is to mitigate the impacts that the I -10 freeway has on adjacent residential uses. The proposed Sierra Expansion Project will be located across Baldwin Park Boulevard from the Target Center and will feature Smart & Final, CVS Drugs and an IHOP restaurant.

Housing— Employment — Transportation Linkage Public transit helps move people who cannot afford personal transportation or who elect not to drive. Elderly and disabled persons also rely on public transit to visit doctors, go shopping, or attend activities at community facilities. Many lower income persons are also dependent on transit to go to work. Public transit that provides a link between job opportunities, public services, and affordable housing helps to ensure that transit - dependent residents have adequate opportunity to access housing, services, and jobs. Local and Regional Services. Foothill Transit operates throughout the urbanized area east of Los Angeles from Pasadena in the west to Claremont, Montclair and Chino in -- the East. The City of Baldwin Park is completely served by Foothill Transit, the primary local transit service provider for the City. Foothill Transit is a joint powers authority of 21- member cities in the San Gabriel and Pomona Valleys, was created in 1988 after the former Southern California Rapid Transit District (RTD) announced service cuts and fare increases that would negatively impact the San Gabriel Valley. In an effort to provide better public transportation options for the community while reducing costs and improving local control, the Los Angeles County Transportation Commission (LACTC) approved Foothill Transit's application to assume operation of 14 lines which were operated by the RTD. Fixed -route bus service began in December 1988 with operation of Lines 495 and 498. The remaining 12 lines were transferred to Foothill Transit over a period of five years. City of Baldwin Park IV-17 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Public Policy Impediments Foothill Transit also assumed administration of the Bus Service Continuation Project and began providing service on an additional six lines that were abandoned by the RTD. The agency analyzed the transit need for the region and began modifying existing lines, increasing weekday service, introducing weekend service, and creating new service. Foothill Transit now operates 36 fixed -route local, express and rail - feeder lines, covers 327 square miles, and serves 15 million customers each year. This number is up from 9.5 million at the time of Foothill Transit's original application. Transit routes within Baldwin Park are laid out to maximize circulation throughout the City, which is bordered on all sides by other incorporated Cities including Irwindale, West Covina, La Puente, Industry and El Monte. Foothill Transit bus routes in the City include routes 178, 272, 486, 488 and 492. Routes generally begin between 5:00 a.m. and run until 10:30 p.m. on weekdays. All buses are equipped with lifts to carry wheelchairs and other mobility devices allowing people with a disability to board buses.

Service is available on the same days and at the salve times as fixed -route buses. Transit fares depend on the type of user and number of trips purchased. The standard full fare is $1.00 for a one -way trip, with seniors and disabled persons eligible for a discounted rate of $0.50. Children age 5 and under may ride Foothill Transit busses for free (maximum of two children per paying adult). A 31 -day pass is available for adults ($66.00), students ($30.00), and seniors /disabled ($20.00). Metrolink is a premier regional rail system, including commuter and other passenger services, which links people to employment and activity centers. Services run Monday through Sunday. The San Bernardino Line (Union Station to San Bernardino) through Baldwin Park begins at 6:05 a.m. and ends at 10:30 p.m. This line also runs from San Bernardino to Union Station, starting at 4 :18 a.m. and ending at 8:50 p.m. A one -way regular fare from Baldwin Park to Union station costs $6.50 on weekdays and $5.00 on City of Baldwin Park IV -18 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Anal sy is of Public Policy Impediments weekends. Seniors and youth are eligible for a reduced fare ($3.25). Multi -day and monthly passes are available at reduced rates. Service Standards. Foothill Transit has adopted service standards to ensure a high level of service and equitable distribution of services among the many communities served. Perhaps the most important indicator is route coverage. All areas having a minimum residential density of 3.5 dwelling units per acre or employment density of 10 jobs per acre, as measured over an area of 25 acres, should be provided with a transit service that places 90% of residences and jobs within one -half mile of a bus stop. To provide adequate access to persons with disability, special service is available through the Foothill Transit service area within a 3/4 mile radius either side of an existing Foothill Transit fixed - route. Foothill Transit maps as of December 2009 indicate that the City of Baldwin Park is well served. Map 6 shows Public Facilities and Employers in relation to public transportation routes. The current Foothill Transit fixed routes are reflected on the map, which indicates that the major employers and public facilities within the City of Baldwin Park are all well - served by public transportation lines within 1%2 of a mile from a transit line. Based on this analysis, it appears that major transit lines serve areas in the central core of the City with high concentrations of affordable rental housing developments and assisted housing, within approximately 1/2 mile of a Foothill Transit fixed route.

Landlord /tenant counseling services involve informing landlords and tenants of their rights and responsibilities under fair housing law and other consumer protection legislations and mediating disputes between landlords and tenants. This section reviews the fair housing services available in Baldwin Park, the nature and extent of fair housing complaints, and results of fair housing testing /audits. The City of Baldwin Park contracts with the Housing Rights Center (HRC) to provide fair housing related services. HRC is a private, non - profit and community based organization that focuses on housing - related issues, tenant /landlord complaints, community disputes, as well as fair housing and discrimination issues. HRC serves several jurisdictions in the County of Los Angeles. A. Fair Housing Education Recent Fair Housing A ccomplishm en ts HRC continuously develops and distributes written materials that describe the applicable laws that protect against housing discrimination and ways to prevent housing injustices. During FY 2006 -2008, HRC recorded the following accomplishments with respect to providing fair housing services. Specific accomplishments include the following: Each year the Housing Rights Center conducts a citywide outreach program for Baldwin Park that includes: 1. The distribution of fair housing educational materials on fair housing; 2. Education programs for landlords and property managers; 3. Public service announcements and press releases; 4. Information Booths at community resource fairs; S. Workshops; and 6. Walk -in clinic office hours. In FY 2008, HRC conducted the following outreach activities in the City of Baldwin Park: 1. Distributed 1,262 pieces of literature; 2. Conducted 26 Fair Housing Certification Training Sessions for landlords and property managers; 3. Made three (3) public service announcements and submitted nine (9) press releases to media outlets; 4. Provided three (3) information booths at community events including the Baldwin Park Foreclosure Prevention Seminar, Senior Center Directors' Knowledge Fair and Apartment Owners Association Trade Show; and S. Conducted five (5) workshops for landlords and tenants, including the Baldwin Park Foreclosure Prevention Seminar, Baldwin Park Crime Free Multi Housing Seminar, Baldwin Park Family Service Center, Housing Rights Workshop for Baldwin Park residents and the Apartment Owners Association Workshop. As of December 30, 2009, the following activities have been conducted in the City for FY 2009: 1. Distributed 600 pieces of fair housing literature; City of Baldwin Park V-1 Analysis oflmpediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Current Fair Housing A cti vity 2.

Provided two (2) information booths at community events including the Senior Center Directors' Knowledge Fair and the Apartment Owners Association Trade Show; and S. Conducted four (4) workshops for landlords and tenants. Fair housing awareness is an essential part of furthering fair housing opportunities for all Baldwin Park residents. Despite their presence, many residents, property owners, managers, and others involved in the housing industry are unaware of fair housing laws. This lack of awareness is attributable to ignorance on the part of residents, property owners, managers and others involved in the housing industry until a fair housing concern directly impacts them. As a proven leader in the field, HRC continues to find new ways to raise public awareness of fair housing. B. Fair Housing Enforcement Housing Rights Center (HRC) is a complaint- driven agency that investigates fair housing complaints based on fair housing violations in the City of Baldwin Park. Fair housing complaints are received through our internal Landlord Tenant Department, education and outreach, internet, referrals, and advertisements activities that take place in the City of Baldwin Park. HRC investigates State and Federal protected categories which include Race, Color, National Origin, Religion, Sex, Familial Status, Disability, Marital Status, Sexual Orientation, Ancestry, Age, Source of Income and Arbitrary Characteristics. The State of California has identified Marital Status, Sexual Orientation, Ancestry, Age, Source of Income and Arbitrary Characteristics as additional protected classes. Once a Fair Housing complaint is received, HRC educates the complainant of their rights and responsibilities. The complainants are advised of possible further investigation depending on the complaint. HRC uses government regulated testing methodologies to enforce, support, and conduct fair housing investigations. Based on the details provided by the complainant HRC will either investigate the complaint or advise the complainants of their other options, which include: conciliation, Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH), Attorney or Department of Justice (DOJ). HRC handled a total of 38 discrimination complaints over a three -year period of FY 2006/07 to FY 2008/09. Discriminatory treatment based on physical disability was the leading basis of all complaints (45 %), ollowed by familial status (21%), mental disability (11%), race /ethnicity (8 %), religion (8 %), other discrimination (5 %) and source of income (3 %). Age, arbitrary, gender, marital status, and national origin were not cited. Since a majority of all complaints (56 %) were based on some form of disability, the data indicates that more efforts must be made to promote awareness of and sensitivity to disabilities amongst housing providers in Baldwin Park. According to the 2000 Census, 24% of Baldwin Park residents over the age of 5 identified themselves as disabled. In terms of familial status, families with children comprised 55.9% of City of Baldwin Park V-2 Analysis oflmpediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Curren t Fair Housin�Acti v all households, female- headed households accounted for 17.5% of all households and non- family households accounted for 11.2 %. In terms of ethnicity, 78.7% of the population was reported as Hispanic or Latino with a majority of those persons originating from Mexico (64.7 %). In terms of race, Whites comprised 40.2% and Asians 11.6 %. Senior citizens (age 65 +) comprised 6.2% of the population.

The Department of Fair Employment and Housing's mission is to protect Californians from employment, housing and public accommodation discrimination, and hate violence. During the prior three years, DFEH processed one (1) harassment case on the dual basis of mental disability and national origin /ancestry. It was found that there was no probable cause to prove a violation of the applicable statutes. Fair Housing discrimination cases for harassment are often difficult to prove because it is difficult to obtain witness testimony and to document the alleged acts. There was not a sufficient number of DFEH cases during the reporting period to establish a correlation between DFEH and HRC cases in the City of Baldwin Park. In May 2003, DFEH announced a new program for mediating housing discrimination complaints — in partnership with state fair housing enforcement agencies. The program provides tenants, landlords, property owners and managers through mediation in a free and timely manner. Mediation takes place within the first 30 days of filing of the complaint, often avoiding the financial and emotional costs resulting from a full DFEH investigation and potential litigation. The Office of Fair Housing and Employment (OFHE) is the federal agency responsible for investigating housing discrimination complaints filed with HUD. HUD annually compiles data on housing discrimination complaints from OFHE and Federal Housing Assistance Programs (FHAP) which are state and local government agencies that enforce fair housing laws. The annual report identifies the types of complaints, any fair housing impediments, OFHE's progress in addressing the complaints, and HUD's efforts to promote equal housing choice. City of Baldwin Park V -3 Analysis oflmpediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Analysis of Current Fair Ho usine Acti vity The most recent OFHE report, State of Fair Housing, FY 2008 Annual Report found that "the share of complaints filed under each issue has remained relatively stable during the past 4 fiscal years, with a few notable exceptions. The report states that "failure to make a reasonable accommodation" increased by 200 between 2005 -2007 and increased by 300 nationwide from 2007 - 20081. The second most common housing discriminatory complaint filed with the aforementioned agencies was discriminatory refusal to rent. The following table (Table V -2) illustrates the plethora of HUD and FHAP discrimination complaints from 2005 - 2008. Table V -2 HUD and FHAP Discrimination Complaints, 2005 -2008 Source: The State of Fair Housing FY 2008 Annual Report Note: Percentages do not total 100 percent because complaints may contain multiple bases. Percentages are rounded to the nearest percentage point. The share of complaints filed under each basis has remained relatively stable during the period represented in the report. Discrimination complaints were higher in 2008 than in the prior three (3) years. Race continues to be the second most common basis of complaints filed with HUD and FHAP agencies. Familial status, the third most common basis of housing complaints, has steadily increased since 2005. Discrimination based on familial status covers acts of discrimination against parents or guardians of a child under the age of 18, the parent's or guardian's designee, and persons who are pregnant or in the process of obtaining legal custody of a child under the age of 18. 1 The State ofFair Housing FY2008 Annual Report, HUD Office of Housing and Equal Employment, page 7. http• / /Zwww hudhudgov/ content /releasesZfy2008annual- rpt.pdf City ofBaldwin Park V-4 Analysis oflmpediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Fiscal Year Basis of Discrimination.

Percentages are rounded to the nearest percentage point. The most prevalent complaint issue filed with HUD and FHAP from 2005 - 2008 is discriminatory terms, conditions, privileges, services and facilities in the sale or rental of property. This category would include actions that illegally subject disparate treatment of one group but does not require the same of another group. For example, a landlord requires Hispanic applicants to undergo employment verification but not require the same of white applicants. Although complaints of this kind dropped off slightly in 2007 and in 2008 as compared to the previous two years, such complaints represented more than half (56 %) of all complaints filed with HUD and FHAP in 2008 (see Table V -3). The second most common complaint issue filed with HUD and FHAP agencies was discriminatory refusal to rent, also a prevalent complaint issue made to the local Housing Rights Center. Discriminatory complaints alleging refusal to rent represented 26% of all complaints whereas refusal to sell represented only 2% of complaints. Housing discrimination based on failure to make a reasonable accommodation was the third most common complaint at 23% of all complaints filed with HUD and FHAP in 2008, followed by discrimination based on coercion, intimidation, threats, interference, and retaliation at 13 %. The above discriminatory issues in rental housing are impediments to fair housing choice. Hate Crimes Hate crimes are violent acts against people, property, or organizations because of the group to which they belong or identify with. The Federal Fair Housing Act makes it illegal to threaten, harass, intimidate or act violently toward a person who has exercised their right to free housing choice. Some examples include threats made in person, writing or by telephone, vandalism of the home or property, or unsuccessful attempts at any of these. According to FBI reports, one (1) hate crime case was filed from calendar years 2006 -2008. The FBI classifies hate crimes into one of five (5) primary bias motivation categories, including: race, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity or disability. The one (1) hate crime reported for the City of Baldwin Park occurred in 2006 and was bias classified for ethnicity.

C. Fair Housing Legal Status Between July 1, 2007 and June 30, 2009, no cases were filed in a court of competent jurisdiction by HRC or DFEH to enforce fair housing laws. HRC was successful in counseling and conciliating the fair housing cases that were investigated on behalf of the City of Baldwin Park during this time period; therefore, there is no litigation to report. The vast majority of the 38 discrimination complaint cases reported by HRC were successfully counseled or conciliated. The outcomes and dispositions of these cases are summarized in Table V -4 and Table V -5 as follows: Table V -4 Discrimination Compliant Outcomes Outcome.`: FY 2006 " FY 200?

City of Baldwin Park V-6 Analysis oflmpediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Conclusions and Recommendations Previous chapters of this A.I. study examined changes in Baldwin Park during the last ten (10) years, analyzed public policies for impediments to fair housing, and documented fair housing opportunity in Baldwin Park. Building upon the previous analysis, this chapter recommends actions to improve housing opportunity in Baldwin Park. Table VI -1 at the end of this chapter summarizes the unresolved impediments, new impediments and recommendations to address these impediments to fair housing choice with an implementation schedule. A. Impediments to Fair Housing Choice The 2003 City of Baldwin Park Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice identified three (3) impediments, of which two (2) are repeated in this 2010 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice, as follows: Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities. The primary incidence of complaints to the Housing Rights Center (HRC) continues to be on the basis of physical or mental disability. Fifty -six percent (56 %) of all complaints in Baldwin Park over the period studied were based on mental or physical disability —a statistic that mirrors numerous other Cities in Southern California. This reveals a fundamental lack of understanding and sensitivity to the fair housing rights of the disabled amongst stakeholders in the housing industry. Disabled persons are experiencing difficulties when requesting reasonable accommodations or modifications. In particular, persons with cognitive disabilities experience significantly more problems with these a%%omliiodatoris. Lending Patterns. Overall, the analysis of lending patterns revealed that loan approval rates are generally higher for Asians and Whites than for Hispanics in the City of Baldwin Park. Current HMDA data from 2008 shows that Hispanic households continue to experience higher loan denial rates than Asians and Whites when purchasing a home. Race /Ethnicity Home Purchase Loan Approval Rate Refinance Approval Rate Asian 77.2 58.8 White 74.2 56.3 African American 100 52.94 Hispanic 64.83 48.3 All Groups (Overall) 70.4 51.6 Source: HMDA Database, 2009. The data analyzed indicates that across all racial /ethnic groups, loan approval rates increase with corresponding increases in the income of the applicants; however, Hispanic applicants had lower loan approval rates in comparison to other similarly - situated racial /ethnic groups with respect to income. These lower home purchase and refinance loan approval rates could be due to significant factors considered in the loan application review process, such as credit, employment history, debt- income ratio, etc. To help improve the lending outcomes of Hispanics, the City will work with its fair housing service provider to improve its homeownership education workshops in areas with high concentrations of minorities (See Map I in Chapter II, Community Profile). City of Baldwin Park VI -1 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Conclusions and Recommendations This 2010 -2014 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice identifies two (2) additional impediments, as follows: 3. Lack of Awareness of Fair Housing Laws. Despite significant and persistent outreach and educational efforts by the Housing Rights Center, a general lack of knowledge of fair housing rights and responsibilities continues to exist in the City. Although the incidence of fair housing discrimination complaints in Baldwin Park has trended downward over the three -year period ending June 30, 2009, HRC statistics show that over 2/3 of all cases are successfully counseled. This indicates that landlords and tenants can generally resolve their differences when the HRC, as a neutral convener, provides clarifying information to resolve actual or perceived discrimination that is against the law. Lack of Large Family Housing Opportunities. The availability of large family housing (3+ bedrooms) is lacking in the City of Baldwin Park. According to the U.S. Census, large family units account for only 37 percent of the available housing stock in the City (See table 4 -2 in Chapter II). According to reports from City housing staff, the City regularly receives calls from residents inquiring about the lack of housing opportunities for large families — particularly those with children. According to HRC, discrimination complaints on the basis of familial status are the second leading cause of resident complaints accounting for 21 percent of all cases over the three -year period studied that ended June 30, 2009. City of Baldwin Park VI -2 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03125110 Fair Housing Choice Conclusions and Recommendations B. Recommendations to Address Impediments to Fair Housing Choice This Al identifies common problems and barriers to fair housing in Baldwin Park. This section builds upon the previous analysis, outlines conclusions, and provides recommendations for the City to address impediments to the fair housing identified earlier. These recommendations will serve as the basis for the City to develop an action plan to eliminate identified Impediments. The recommendations listed in Table VI -1 on the following page are designated for action by the City, and other service agencies that assist Baldwin Park residents. Table VI -1 Fair Housing Recommendations Impediments Recommendations Lead Agency Timeframe It is recommended that HRC expand its existing fair housing workshops in the City to specifically address the disabled and this population's particular housing needs and rights. These workshops will inform landlords and housing industry stakeholders about Discrimination reasonable accommodations and Housing Rights 1' against Persons modifications. Center; Housing 6/30/11 With Disabilities The City of Baldwin Park will provide funds Department to HRC for expanded testing, (a minimum of 15 tests) in Baldwin Park to address issues of possible discrimination based on disability to expand the base of knowledge surrounding specific types of housing discrimination against the mentally and physically disabled. It is recommended that the City continue to monitor lending patterns on an annual basis to observe changes in lending activity in an effort to adjust its fair housing approach and its own homebu_ver program. Housing Rights 2. Lending Patterns In conjunction with the City fair housing Center; Housing 7/1/11 provider, it is recommended that the City Department expand homebuyer workshops in Baldwin Park and target marketing efforts to under- represented race and ethnic groups in census block groups with higher minority concentrations. City of Baldwin Park VI -3 Analysis of Impediments to Draft 03/25/10 Fair Housing Choice Conclusions and Recommendations Impediments_ Recommendations Lead Agency Timeframe It is recommended that HRC continue to provide fair housing technical assistance to real estate professionals with fair housing questions or concerns in Baldwin Park and throughout Los Angeles. The City should work with HRC in an effort to expand community participation at the City of Baldwin Park's Crime Free Multi- Family Housing Workshop. This annual gathering of property managers /owners promotes Lack of awareness of fair housing laws at no charge. City of Baldwin Park 3 Awareness of The City also publishes a newsletter `Baldwin Housing Division; 6/30/10 Fair Housing Park Now." It is further recommended that Housing Rights Laws the City publish real -life accounts from Center families who have been discriminated against in seeking housing opportunities, followed by a statement that households or individuals who are experiencing similar discrimination should contact the Housing Rights Center for more information and assistance in securing housing in the City. Tli a mitreach efforts will serve to increage awareness of fair housing rights and responsibilities throughout Baldwin Park. It is recommended that the City address the lack of large family housing opportunities by seeking opportunities for the development of new large family housing as infill developments. City of Baldwin Park Lack of Large Family Further, it is recommended that the City, in Housing 6/30/12 4. Housing partnership with HRC, provide landlord Department; Housing Rights rFor Opportunities education Workshops /seminars that include Center information on what constitutes housing overcrowding as well as information about the illegal practice of discriminating on the basis of familial status against large households with children.

BACKGROUND In accordance with ABX4 26, redevelopment agencies are required to shift $1.7 Billion in property tax increment revenues to K -12 schools in FY 2009 -2010 via the Supplemental Educational Revenue Augmentation Funds (SERAF) and an additional shift of $350 Million in FY 2010 -2011. On November 13, 2009, State Department of Finance notified the Commission of the SERAF amount determined to be transferred, which is calculated based on net and gross tax increments. DISCUSSION The Commission's proportionate share of the property tax shift for FY 2009 -2010 is $1,790,663 and must be allocated to the LA County Auditor - Controller for deposit into the SERAF on or before May 10, 2010. The estimated shift amount for FY 2010 -2011 is $368,000. If the Commission does not make its payment on time, then it will receive the "death penalty" and must increase its housing set -aside to 25 %, during receipt of tax increment, as well as not add new or expand existing project areas, issue new bonds or other indebtedness, expend any funds, except as expressly provided in ABX4 26. The State statute required the Commission to report to the LA County Auditor - Controller by March 1, 2010 as to how it intends to fund its proportionate share. SERAF FY 2009 -2010 May 5, 2010 Page 2 of 3 On February 24, 2010, the Commission notified the LA County Auditor - Controller via letter the Commission's intent to pay the proportionate share, under protest, with funds advanced from the Commission's Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund, other available tax increment revenue, and the General Fund, if necessary. Commission's February 24th letter to the LA County Auditor - Controller is attached. The Commission can use any available funds to make the SERAF payment. In order to make the SERAF payment, an option the Commission can use is to "suspend" all or a portion of Commission's required 20% housing set -aside allocation for FY 2009 -2010. However, the Commission cannot use accumulated housing set -aside funds from prior years to make the payment. The housing set -aside fund must be repaid by June 30, 2015. If not repaid by the deadline, then the housing set aside allocation is increase to 25 %. CRA has filed a lawsuit in Sacramento County Superior Court, challenging the constitutionality of ABX4 26, California Redevelopment Association et al. v. Genest et al. (CRA v. Genest). That case alleges, among other things, the duties of county auditors to deposit funds received from redevelopment agencies in SERAF are inconsistent with State and Federal constitutional provisions and are unlawful and unenforceable. CRA has urged agencies not to make any payments before the deadline and agencies carefully monitor the progress of the pending litigation. However, the Commission should be prepared to make the SERAF payment to comply with this fast - approaching deadline. CRA filed a motion asking the court not to require agencies to make the SERAF payments due on May 10th, until the court makes its decision. The court notified CRA the April 23`° hearing for the motion was cancelled, because Judge Connelly intends to rule on the case before May 4th If the outcome of the lawsuit is not in the CRA's favor, or the judgment is not received prior to May 10th, the Commission will be required to make the payment. In such an event, the Commission will use FY 2009 -2010 housing set -aside funds to make the SERAF payment, which is permitted by Chapter 21 and as stated in the Department of Finance letter dated November 13, 2009, as attached. The FY 2009- 2010 housing set -aside amount available to use will be up to $1.4 Million, leaving a remainder balance of approximately $400,000, which will be paid from available Commission funds. Commission will be required to enter into an agreement to repay the housing set aside fund by June 30, 2015. Staff will provide any updates received from the CRA on the pending litigation at the May 5th meeting. SERAF FY 2009 -2010 May 5, 2010 Page 3 of 3 Staff recommends the Community Development Commission authorize staff to make the required SERAF payment using FY 2009 -10 Low and Moderate Income Housing Funds and available Commission funds by May 10th, if the outcome of the CRA lawsuit is not in their favor, and prepare an agreement for repayment by June 30, 2015.

While a majority of those cuts, shifts, and deferrals are necessary due to the current deep and prolonged recession, the existing structural problems, in large part, are a direct result of poor fiscal management by the State of California, the result of which is tangible financial harm to redevelopment agencies and communities throughout the State, including Baldwin Park. One of the State's funding shifts (Chapter 21, Statutes of 2009) purportedly requires California redevelopment agencies, as in prior years, to shift $1.7 billion in property tax increment revenues to K-12 schools during fiscal year 2009-10. Section 33692 of the California Health and Safety Code requires each redevelopment agency to report to the county auditor as to how it intends to fund its proported proportionate share of the shifts by March 1, 2010, and allocate the required amount to the county auditor for deposit into the Supplemental Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund (SERAF) by May 10, 2010. The validity of the legislation mandating this proported SERAF transfer has been challenged in litigation pending in the Superior Court for Sacramento County, California Redevelopment Association et al. v. Genest et al., Case No. 34-2009- 80000359-CU-WM-GDS (CRA v. Genest). That case alleges, among other things, the duties of county auditors under Health and Safety Code Sections 33690(a) and 33690.5(a) to deposit funds received from redevelopment agencies in County Supplemental Educational Revenue Augmentation Funds are inconsistent with various state and federal constitutional provisions and are, therefore, unlawful and unenforceable.

The CDC reserves any rights it may have to withhold the payment of funds to you under Health and Safety Code Section 33690 or to recover those funds after payment or transfer based on any order or judgment of the Court in CRA v. Genest. Subject to all the foregoing, the CDC hereby, authorizes the Executive Director to remit, if at all, the CDC's purported share of the SERAF shift of $1,790,663 to the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller by May 10, 2010, with funds advanced from the CDC's Low- and Moderate-income Housing Fund, other available tax increment revenue, and the General Fund, if necessary.
