Service delivery areas are assigned by the Department of: :.Rehabilitation to each of the 29 Indpendent Living Centers in California. This ILC serves the Pomona & San Gabriel Valley region. The agency in unique, in many ways, one being that there is no other agency that provides the services to individuals regardless of the type of disability, and another is the presence of disabilities on staff. This disability service and education project enables the City of Baldwin Park to offer a multitude of services to residents with disabilities for far less than the cost of hiring a single staff person. The number and variety of services, and the expertise of the staff on the project cannot be easily replicated and further demonstrate ifs' cost effectiveness. The project will offer 190 hours of services that will benefit the entire city, including systems change advocacy-, outreach to all persons with disabilities, a mobile center for on -site service delivery; the production and dissemination of a quarterly newsletter; Community Capacity Building Forums on such topics as ADA; the Olmstead Act; DisasterfE merge ncy Preparedness; Changes in the Health Care Systems; Employment; Public Accommodations; Transportation; Government Services; Social Security; Fair Housing; staff training for City employees as well as the Police, Fire, Personnel on 'What you need to know about disability" and emergency preparedness for residents with disabilities as well as Case management services such as; information and referral; assistive technology assistance; housing assistance; benefits advocacy and counseling; personal assistance services, independent living skills training; peer counseling; self - advocacy training and interpreting for the deaf and hard of hearing. In the following, letters in bold italics identify a variety of problems /obstacles and the service which addresses the problem is in bold letters. Mobilit is a problem for many of us who face a two hour ordeal just to get out of bed and ready for work or to look for work, each day_ The help of a personal care assistant is required to accomplish tasks of daily living, so Independent Living Centers provide Personal assistance services. Centers maintain a registry individuals who have experience and are seeking employment as an independent contractor. Ph sical Limitations can often be accommodated through the use of assistive devices, or "tools for living " - This problem is being addressed through our Assistive Technology Program that includes both low -tech and high -tech equipment demonstration and instruction. Housiqq Accessible, affordable, and safe housing is an issue for many people with disabilities. Housing assistance services include instruction on the Olmstead Act, fair housing and independent living skills along with a registry of available housing. Social Security Benefits a vast majority of persons with disabilities applying for benefits are denied on their first attempt. Benefits counseling and representation at appeals hearings are available through this program. Regardless of the income level prior to becoming disabled, the costs of treatment, rehabilitation and equipment quickly exhaust tangible assets, and most frequently result in unemployment and real poverty- RECEIVED FEB A 2.003 BA ueml' i'MiYk FJMJJLN6 AUTNOMW Entitlement programs and benefits such as Social Security and Disability Insurance, ...... ........... have eligibility and filing requirements which are burdensome and often overwhelming to the inexperienced applicant. Appealing an adverse ruling on SSI or SSDI is now so complex, the average person is advised to seep legal representation. Generally legal assistance is unaffordable, so Advocacy services are offered to assist individuals with the SSI consultation and representation for administrative law appeals, self - advocacy and ADA instruction. App ro riate resources are needed for products or services unique to persons with disabilities. Accurate information and referral to these resources is only available through independent living services networks. Both Information and Referral services are provided to several thousand individuals with disabilities each year, carrying out our mission to `increase access to programs and services and resouorces for independence" The agency has a computerized program which identifies resourses by type and geographic location. The search can be as broad as the entire County of Los Angeles, or as specific as one zip code. Inclusion is critical in recovery of individuals diagnosed with an illness or injury that results in severe disability. Peer counseling offers the comfort and reassurance of someone with a similar experience and is far more effective than that of a person who does not have personal experience with a disability. Communication is a fundamental aspect of daily living. For those who are deaf, who have never "heard" or otherwise learned the English language, there is no way to understand the information being exchanged and shared by the hearing world. More important, is the need for communication of critical information, which directly affects the individual, whether social, legal, or medical. Alternate forms of Communication such as readers for blind and vision impaired persons and sign language interpreters for deaf and hard of hearing persons are provided on -site by two experienced staff at no cost to consumers. The Center also operates a registry that provides Interpretation by independent contractors to private and public agencies on a fee-for-service basis. Nutrition cooking, cleaning, bud a and bankin along with problem solving, hiring and managing an attendantlemployee, negotiating terms and asserting ones -self are but a few of the basic skills which many persons with disabilities must learn in order to retain control over decisions and live in one's own home. All ILG's, offer Independent Living Skills training to address this need through - orientation to public transportation and other community resources as well as budget and menu planning. Community education and ublic policy pLo `ects are needed to promote disability awareness as well as housing and employment issues. our Community Advocate will be responsible for Systems Advocacy services that would bring forth extensive work with local government and private agencies to eliminate the barriers to independence that have become institutionalized within the systems which were developed prior to the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

Review and consider the approval of the FY 2003 -2004 draft Annual Action Plan for submission to HUD. Authorize the Housing Director to submit the final citizen Participation Plan and FY 2003 -2004 Annual Action Plan. AA -612-0 91 LIrV 1. On January 5, 1995 The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) established the Final Rule for Consolidated Submission for Community Planning and Development Programs. Essentially, the Federal government established a requirement that all state and local governments prepare a five -year strategy designed to address the housing needs of extremely low, low and moderate - income households within the community. Local governments are only provided federal funds when they prepare a five -year Consolidated Plan and obtain approval from HUD. Accordingly, Baldwin Park has submitted and received HUD approval for its ongoing FY 2000 -2004 Consolidated Plan. Also required is the annual submission of a City's Action Plan 45 days prior to the beginning of each fiscal year. The attached draft FY 200304 Annual Action Plan describes the proposed activities and funding amount for the new program year. Under consideration during this public hearing is the projected use of the City's $1,830,705 in FY 2003 -2004 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds and $562,492 in FY 2003 -2004 HOME Investment Partnership Act (HOME) allocations. City Council — May 7, 2003 Page 3 * Rental Rehabilitation Assistance: improve living conditions for extremely low, low and ....... moderate income renter households, - • Neighborhood Revitalization Program: to promote housing opportunities and encourage both tenant and property owners to become stakeholders in high density areas in need of revitalization; • At Risk Assistance: provision of supportive housing needs for the "at risk" population; • Housing Stock Expansion:. increase housing stock for all segments of the community, particularly for low and moderate - income households; and * Lead Based Paint Abatement: testing and abatement of housing units for lead based paint hazards. Community Development Nan - Housin • Capital Improvement: projects to be implemented in eligible census tract areas benefiting extremely low, low and moderate income residents and presumed benefit populations. *Planning and Capacity Building: creation of eligible planning documents that positively impact areas designated as low and moderate - income (i.e. Downtown Specific Plan and Zone Code Update). • Public Service Assistance: to increase opportunities to community youth from extremely low, low and moderate income households. Economic Develo meat • Economic Development Assistance: will assist the business community to create new employment opportunities, particularly for low and moderate- income persons and neighborhoods through business expansion and retention. For each of the Housing, Community and Economic Development priorities listed above, the City will administer a number of programs (i.e. Home Improvement, Rental Rehabilitation Neighborhood Revitalization, Code Enforcement Programs) for the remainder of the five -year period covered by the Consolidated Plan. The FY 2003 -2004 Annual Action Plan provides both a qualitative and quantitative description of proposed program activities. In addition to addressing housing priorities, the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan reflect Baldwin Park's long -term goals for community and economic development in general, and the use of federal CDBG and HOME funds in particular. These goals include neighborhood support and revitalization, the improvement of the community's appearance, the development of facilities and infrastructure, and support for qualified community service providers and City sponsored programs. The FY 2003 -2004 Annual development activities to be (e.g. Sidewalk and ADA Improvements). It addresse sAction Plan also addresses non - housing community implemented during the upcoming 2003 -2004 fiscal year improvements, Zoning Code Update, and Street economic development priorities and activities including Exhibit "A" Draft Annual Action Plan EXHIBIT "A" DRAFT ANNUAL ACTION PLAN of Baldwin Park ... . .I.......... FISCAL YEAR FY 2003 -2004 ANWAL ACTION PLAN The development of this FY 2003 -2004 Annual Action Plan includes the 2000 Census data and information obtained in community meetings with residents, several county agencies, and non - profit organizations. The county and social service agencies (e.g., Los Angeles County Department of Public Social Services and Los Angeles County Department of Health Services, Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention program) that the City conferred with provide a variety of housing services for children, the elderly, the disabled, and the homeless. The East San Gabriel Valley Homeless Coalition also conducted a point-in time homeless survey on February 3, 2003, which revealed that -there were 2703 homeless individuals in the San Gabriel Valley (Baldwin Park is awaiting homeless specific figures for its jurisdiction). In essence, the FY 2003 -2004 Annual Action Plan provides a one -year summary of the Five -Year Strategic Plan, which was submitted, to HUD in May 2000 for each identified priority. Consequently, the Annual Action Plan carries out over a one program year period (i.e., FY 2003 -2004) the housing and community development goals of the Five - Year Consolidated Plan. As may be recalled, the Five -Year Consolidated Plan addresses the housing needs identified in this Annual Action Plan. A. APPLICATION FORM #424 Please See Attachment "B" to this Document. B. AVAILABLE RESOURCES The FY 2003 -2004 Annual Plan describes all available resources for housing, Federal programs, non- Federal public programs (State and local), and private resources (for - profit and non- profit). This section lists by activity type (i.e., rehabilitation, new construction, or homebuyer assistance) all resources by program expected to be available to the jurisdiction for use in carrying out that activity. Provided herein is a short description of each program resource, the City's experience with the program and an evaluation of each program's advantages and disadvantages in achieving affordable and supportive housing goals. The HUD allocation for FY 2003.2004 for all jurisdictions is $1.925 billion for HOME funds and $4.4 billion for CDBG funds. FY 2003 -2004 Annual Action Plan Page 2 Citv of Baldwin Park iii._ Youthbuifd Program: Funding for this program is awarded through a - - .. competitive process as implementation grants...,.., or private nonpro .. ....... agencies, states or local housing agencies or authorities, state or local governments and Indian tribes are eligible to apply. The program is designed to provide economically disadvantaged young adults with educational, employment skills, and on-site construction work experience as a service to their communities and a means to become self-sufficient. Should a local non -profit developer wish to apply for funding under this program, the City will support their efforts. C. How -ebu er Assistance Activities i. HOME Program: the HOME Program allows funds to be used for first -time homebuying activities. Use of these funds in a homebuyer program requires that all participants be at or below 80% of area median and occupy the property as their principal residence. There are two options regarding how a city may structure the resale of a homebuyer property. Other resale restrictions on properties purchased with HOME Program funds may apply. As of FY 94, a 25% non - Federal match was required for home buying activities. This program is anticipated to assist a number of low- income households in attaining affordable homeownership. In FY 94 the City became a participating jurisdiction and has since received an annual HOME funding allocation. Because of its poverty rate and social economic composition, Baldwin Park's match was reduced to 12.5% in 1997. d. Renta[ Assistance Activities i, Public Housing: the Baldwin Park Housing Authority administers this program and provides rental assistance payments to the Baldwin Park Housing Authority who lease their units to eligible extremely low income families and individuals. A Public Housing Authority (PHA) may choose to use 20% of this rental assistance to implement a project -based certificate program. This means that assistance is based on the unit in which a tenant resides. The rental assistance stays with the unit should the tenant decide to move to a different unit. Once a household enters a unit with this assistance or obtains this certificate assistance, they may receive this assistance for up to 15 years if the household's extremely low - income status does not change. Although the program houses 4.4 million low - income people, this program has a waiting list, which exceeds twice the number of available Section 8 certificates. FY 2003 -2004 Annual Action Plan Page 4 Citv of Baldwin Park e. New Construction Activities L HO111J'E Program: new construction may be undertaken with HOME Program funds. However, all projects constructed must be available to low - income households. Also, an up to 25% non - Federal match of funds is required with new construction activities under the HOME Program for most localities. ii. Supportive Housing for the Elderly (Section 202) Program: is discussed on page 5, d, iv. These funds are available for capital advances to private, non- profit applicants to finance the construction of elderly housing units. The City has had good experience with this program and has been able to add affordable housing units for the elderly to the City's Dousing stock through this program. f Homeless Assistance Activities i. Emergency Shelter Grants Program: these grants improve the duality of existing emergency shelters and increase the number of developing shelters for the homeless. Program funds are awarded to formula grantee cities in proportion to their previous year's CDBG allocation. Even though the City recognizes that this is a tremendous resource for non - profits operating essential homeless projects, the fact is that there are no homeless shelters in the City of Baldwin Park and the point in time survey conducted on February 3, 2003 revealed 2,703 homeless people in the San Gabriel Valley. fl. Shelter Plus Care: this is a program for rental assistance offered with supportive services to homeless people with disabilities. These are competitive grant funds awarded annually in a nationwide competition. Support services must match rental assistance and must be provided by other funding sources. The City has not applied for these funds in the past. g. Homeless Prevention Activities h Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS Program ( HOPWA): there are two types of grants, entitlement and competitive, for housing assistance and supportive services for low - income persons with AIDS or related diseases and their families. Funds may be used for acquisition activities. HOPWA is a competitive program and has limited funding availability. HUD allocation for HOPWA FY 2003-2004 is $292 million. FY 2003 -2004 Annual Action Plan Page 6 of Baldwin Parr repayment required only upon refinance, transfer or safe of the property prior to the ten year maturity date: Redevelopment Set-aside Funds Development of Affordable Housing (DAN): these funds have been used to establish a second mortgage loan program available to qualified moderate - income first -time homebuyers for new construction developments (i.e., D.G. Corporation's new housing developments). Loans were available up to $19,100. Loans are due and payable in full only upon the safe, transfer or change in title to the Property to a new buyer that is not a qualified moderate - income buyer. If such sale, transfer or change in title occurs within- forty-five (45) years from initial purchase the principal with interest (rate based upon number of years of loan) will be due and payable. If each transfer or sale is to another moderate - income homebuyer during said time period, the Note amount for the Second Trust Deed shall be automatically and completely forgiven after forty -five (45) years from the initial purchase date by Participant. The DAH also has provided assistance in the development of a 71 -unit multi- family housing project Thomas Safran and Associates, a private developer and the Regional Occupational Program Single- Family Housing Project (ROP). NOME Funds: these funds, which are matched with Redevelopment Set- aside Funds, have been used to establish a First Time Homebuyers Program (FTHB). This program offers a silent second mortgage loan to qualified low or moderate- income first -time homebuyers. Loans up to $40,000 are available. The principal loan amount is due and payable after 10 years and the interest will be forgiven. Loans are due and payable in full upon the sale, transfer or change in title of the Property to a buyer that is not a qualified moderate- income buyer. If such sale, transfer or change in title occurs within 10 years from initial purchase, the principal with interest (rate based upon number of years of loan) will be due and payable. Due to the use of Redevelopment Set -Aside Funds, an affordability clause is also included to read "if the property is sold or transferred to another person for a family who is low to moderate - income within forty -five (45) years from the initial date of purchase of property by participant, this note and the Loan, including any accrued interest shall be deemed to be automatically and completely forgiven and require no repayment by the Participant." FY 2003 -2004 Annual Action Plan Page 8 of Baldwin Park iii, Homebuyer Assistance Activities: First-time homebuyers; participating in the City's horrie'150yer assistance programs" must contribute with at least 5% of the total purchase price as down payment toward the home and pay all closing costs. However, the City encourages the seller to pay a portion of the closing costs. The financial participation of the new homeowner ensures the City that the new owner has a vested financial interest in the home which helps to stabilized the City's neighborhoods. b, Non-profit All Activities: non-profit organizations receive tax deductible contributions, grants, and nominal user fees for their on-going affordable housing and supportive service activities.

ACTIVITIES TO BE UNDERTAKEN Priority #1 Homeowner Assistance, improvement of the City's existing single - family residences owned by extremely low, low and moderate - income homebuyers. As the Housing and Homeless Needs Assessment previously submitted as part of the City's 2000 -2004 Consolidated Plan demonstrates, 51 % of the City's homeowners and. The Housing and Homeless Needs Assessment of the Housing Element and Consolidated Plan further reveals that a high proportion of extremely low, low, and moderate - income Baldwin Park residents are confronted with a variety of housing problems such as affordability gap, cost burden, overcrowding and/or substandard living conditions. Housing cost burden was a contributing factor to housing problems faced by most owner - households regardless of income. FY 2043 -2004 Annual Action Plan Page 12 Citv of Baldwin Park title or, I the title is transferred. These loans are provided with a 1 % simple .... . ... interest rate. 1,2) Residential Rehabilitation Grant Program (RGP) - if necessary, a very low, low and moderate - income homeowner may be eligible for a grant. Grants may range from as low as $500 to a maximum of $5,000 depending on need and work the property requires. Typically, the HIRP and RGP provide funding for substantial home repairs and/or makes feasible room additions to alleviate overcrowded living conditions. Whether the homeowner receives an amortized loan, a deferred loan, or a grant, the primary objective of the HIRP is to provide financial assistance to very low, low, and moderate - income homeowners for the effective maintenance of the City's quality single family housing stock. The HIRP in FY 2003 -2004 will be funded with $350,000 in NOME funds (Prior year funding — $212,694; FY 03 -04 NOME funding $137,306) and the RGP will be funded with $50,000 in CDBG funds. The City of Baldwin Park plans to rehabilitate 10 single - family homes and provide 10 grants during FY 2003 -2004. Geographic Distribution: the HIRP and RGP is available citywide as long as the homeowner's income is at or below 80% of median income. Service Delivery and Management: the City's Housing Department administers the HIRP and the RGP. The Housing Programs Coordinator and Rehabilitation Housing Specialist are responsible for the daily activities involved with this program. Essentially, the City's Housing Director supervises the HIRP and RGP coordinator, and the City's Loan Committee ultimately approves all HIRP loans and RCP's. 1.3) Code Enforcement Program (CEP): over the past several years, the City has maintained an aggressive proactive code enforcement program designed to protect existing residential neighborhoods against the ill effects of deterioration due to neglect and/or deferred maintenance. An integral and vital component of the CEP is the City Prosecutor Program (CPP). The purpose of the CPP is to enhance the overall effectiveness of the CEP by legally enforcing the City's Property Maintenance Ordinance (PMO). Two different funding sources, CDBG and General Funds provide funding for the CEP increment funds. During FY 2003 -2004, the CEP will receive an approximate total of $399,000 of which $235,000 will be from CDBG and the remaining $156,000 from the City's General funds. Over the next year, the City's goal is to continue to enforce the PMO and to initiate 2,100 corrective actions. Geographic Distribution; the CEP activities are conducted citywide with particular attention given to the City's CDBG eligible areas.

An example of the savings to recipients of MCC's is fully detailed in the Five -Year Consolidated Plan. It is the City of Baldwin Park's goal to process 10 MCC's during FY 2003 -2004. Geographic Distribution: the MCC program will be available citywide to all people who purchase a property under the second mortgage loan program in the City, Service Delivery and Management, the daily administrative activities of the MCC program will- -be handled by the Housing Department. Priority #2 Rental Rehabilitation Assistance: the City's Rental Rehabilitation Program is designed to improve the existing rental housing stock and to allow extremely low and low - income renters to afford the rehabilitated units. As the Housing and Homeless Needs Assessment previously submitted as part of the City's 2000 -2004 Consolidated Plan demonstrates 76% of the City's renters experience some kind of housing problems. For example, the City's most severely overcrowded housing units are occupied by low - income (55 %) and moderate - income (48.2 %) renter households. As a result, the City has established as a priority to rehabilitate substandard properties occupied by extremely low, low, and moderate - income residents. When rehabilitating dilapidated properties, preference will be given to properties occupied by very low and low- income households that are severely cost burden (e.g., paying more than 50% of monthly income for housing).

Loan Committee ultimately approves all rental rehabilitation loans funded by the City's RRP. 2.2) Fair Housing Services: over the past several years, the City has implemented a Fair Housing Program designed to limit discrimination in housing on the basis of race, color, national origin, handicap, gender or creed. In order to implement its plan, over the past eight years the City has maintained an agreement with the Housing Rights Center (HRC) to provide such services. Through the years, the HRC has effectively provided these services to Baldwin Park residents. The services provided by the HRC are funded through CDBG Administration funds. During FY 2003 -2004, a total of $15,000 will be available for fair housing services in Baldwin Park. Over the next year, the City's goal is to continue providing fair housing services to at least 300 property owners and renters. HRC will also continue to assist the Baldwin Park community through the agency's telephone counseling service and participate in property management workshop through the City -Crime Free Multi- Housing Program. The HRC will provide 2 housing audits citywide and assist in providing 6 Property Management Workshops and Training to Property Owners and Managers of rental property in the area of fair housing. Geographic Distribution: fair housing services are available citywide to all current or prospective renters and property owners. Service Delivery and Management: the Housing Rights Center will conduct the daily administrative activities. The City's Housing Programs Coordinator along with the Accounting Supervisor will monitor on a regular basis the major activities and financial accounts of the aforementioned agency. 2.3) Property Management Workshops: the Housing Department expanded its services to include the promotion of effective property management practices. Accordingly, the Housing Department functions as a central source of information and provides education on landlord and tenant rights and responsibilities; conducts seminars on effective property management (e.g., marketing and advertising, tenant screening, rent collection, eviction procedures, and dealing with problem tenants); encourages property maintenance and city code compliance; and develop a property management resource manual.

Priority #4 At Risk Assistance: Provision of supportive housing needs for the at risk" population. The City of Baldwin Park has defined the "At Risk" population to consist of families and persons who are threatened with the loss of their place of residence. The "At Risk" population includes very low and low- income families, as well as persons released from: substance abuse, or mental facilities who are in imminent danger of residing in shelters, or of being unsheltered due to a lack of access to permanent housing. When a situation warrants, the aforementioned non - homeless people with special needs will be referred to the appropriate county social service agency. The City will then work with these agencies to ensure that the needs of these populations are effectively addressed. Furthermore, given the large percentage of extremely low and low- income households that are cost burdened, the City has decided to implement the three Continuum of Care programs discussed below to address the housing needs of the "At Risk" population within the City. Over the next year, the three programs discussed in the investment strategy below will be available to all Baldwin Park residents whose distressed situation requires assistance. In addition, the City will remain cognizant of the special needs of the "at risk" population to assure that a greater homeless problem does not develop. r-t,l - 417 _ Drinri+ti fld r)na +Yaar Investment Plan 1 Ql.I1G 3rf { siViil —ar +� Continuum of Care Assist 8 households at risk Continuum of Care Citywide Housing GrantfCDBG of losing their home or apartment Women's & Children's PHF ChoiceslCDBG Assist 1,250 households a Citywide Counseling ear.

Service Delivery and Management; the City's Department of Recreation and Community Services handle the daily administration of this program. -- Priority #5 Housing Stock Expansion: increase housing stock for all segments of the community, particularly for low and moderate - income households. During recent years much has been written about increasing home prices becoming inaccessible to low and moderate - income families. These market conditions have been severely impacted by high land cost in the Los Angeles metropolitan areas and is cause for the creation of distinct approaches in the development of affordable housing. With this challenge in mind, the City has implemented the following programs to increase affordable housing opportunities as the table below reflects. µw _t_1.. o n.4-4– 4– fir, nna-Vanr InvpcfmPnt Plan 5.1) Community Housing and Development Organization (CHDO), Multi - family and Senior Housing and New Development of Affordable Housing (DAH), while the City of Baldwin Park is essentially a mature community with little room to expand its housing stock, there are however, limited sites where both infill development and large scale tract development may be accommodated.

Priority #6 Lead Based Paint (LBP): testing and abatement of housing units for lead based paint hazards. The Department of Environmental Health Lead Programs of the County of Los Angeles indicated that there was one reported case in 2001, and eight reported cases since 1997. The City recognizes the hazards that lead based paint poses to young children. As a policy, the City's goal continues to be two -fold: 1) to determine the number of Baldwin Park homes with potential LBP hazards, and 2) to establish a means of providing information to residents regarding the hazards that LBP poses.

OTHER ACTIONS N Public Policies: the City's Annual Plan for FY 2003 -2004 does not intend or propose to revise any public policies pertaining to housing. An extensive re- evaluation of the City's housing policies was conducted during FY 2001 as part of the City's State mandated Housing Element. During the re- evaluation period, staff analyzed the City's regulatory environmental, development fees, building codes and found that the City's public policies do not inhibit the construction of affordable housing. ii.} Institutional Structure: other than fine tuning the existing programs and services currently offered by the City, the City does not intend or propose to take remedial actions to improve its institutional structure during FY 2003 -2004. The Baldwin Park Housing Department will carry out a variety of CRA funded activities (e.g. First -Time Homebuyer's and Housing Residential Improvement Program). Additional programming essentially required additional staff; therefore, the nonprofit was formed to handle these new City programs. FY 2003 -2004 Annual Action Plan Page 40 of Baldwin Park III.
