Community Development - CDBG JOHN SWEETEN, CLERK OF cc: County Administrator THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS County Counsel AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR Auditor-Controller DEPUTY BACKGROUND /REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS The CAPER is required by the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, for entitlement jurisdictions underthe Community Development Block(CDBG), HOME Investment Partnership Act (HOME), Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG), Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) programs. The CAPER provides the County with.an opportunity to evaluate its overall progress in carrying out priorities and objectives in the 5-year Consolidated Plan and annual Action Plan. HUD uses the CAPER to evaluate whether(1)the County, on behalf of the Urban County and HOME Consortium has carried out projects/programs as described in its Consolidated and Action Plans, (2)CDBG, HOME, ESG, and HOPWA assisted activities are eligible and meet a national objective, and whether expenditures meet certain statutory requirements; and (3) the County has demonstrated a continuing capacity to carry out its HUD funded programs. The basic elements of the CAPER are the following: summary of resources and expenditures, programmatic accomplishments, status of actions taken during the year to implement objectives contained in the Consolidated Plan, and evaluation of progress made during the past year in addressing identified priority needs and objectives. Highlights of the CAPER include the following: • The County received $7.45 million in new CDBG, HOME, EG and HOPWA funds for use in accomplishing housing and non-housing community development objectives. • The County spent $8 million on approved projects and programs. • For each dollar spent in County federal funds, $4.58 was leveraged from other federal, State, local and private resources. • In the Economic Development category, CDBG funds were used to assist 88 businesses and place 157 people in jobs. In addition, four loans were made to micro-enterprise or small businesses. • Twelve Infrastructure/Public Facilities projects were closed during the year, ten of which were projects from prior years. • Public service programs served more than 23,000 lower income County residents. • Nine housing projects were completed providing 421 affordable housing units, including 369 rental units and 52 homeowner units. These projects included new construction and rehabilitation for families, seniors, and individuals with special needs. • The Consortium HOME program is ranked #1 in California based on a HUD evaluation of all NOME programs. • The County continues to make substantial progress in meeting its five-year housing and non-housing goals as described in the Consolidated Plan. The County has already exceeded 20 of its 27 Consolidated Plan goals. • In an effort to decrease the administrative burden of our programs on subrecipients, the County and the other five CDBG jurisdictions(within the County)conducted joint subrecipient meetings, and developed joint forms to be used by subrecipients. The jurisdictions worked with subrecipient focus groups in the development of new procedures. CONTRACOSTA COUNTY FY 2002/03 CAPER l _ f .... ........

Introduction Access to safe, sanitary and affordable housing, living wage jobs, essential social services, and viable communities are important factors in determining the prosperity and livability of a community. Contra Costa County, on behalf of the Urban County' has participated in the Community Development Block Grant(CDBG)program since its inception in 1975. The primary purpose of the CDBG program is the development ofviable urban communities by providing decent housing,a suitable living environment,and expanded economic opportunities for persons of very-low and low-income. The purpose of the HOMB Investment Partnerships Act (HOME) program is to expand the supply of decent, safe, sanitary, and affordable housing for very-low and low-income families and households. In June of 1993,Contra Costa County as the Urban County representative and the Cities of Antioch, Concord, Pittsburg, and Walnut Creek joined together to form a Consortium for purposes of participation in the HOME programa. In addition to CDBG and HOME,the County receives Emergency Shelter Grants(BS G)funds to improve and expand the supply of shelters for the homeless,and to provide homeless prevention activities and support services. ESG funds must benefit Urban County homeless populations. .Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS(HOPWA)funds may be used throughout the County for the development of housing affordable to and occupied by low-income persons with HN/AIDS. Participation by the County in these four programs has substantially increased affordable rental and homeownership opportunities, and expanded the availability of employment,recreation,health services,childcare,and other social services in Contra Costa. In compliance with federal regulations,in April 2000 the County and the Consortium members adopted the FY 2000/01-2004/05 Contra Costa Consolidated Plan("Five-Year Plan"or"Consolidated Plan").Based on an assessment of community needs,the Consolidated Plan identifies affordable housing and community development goals,objectives and strategies to be implemented by Consortium members over the five-year planning period. The County's annual Action Plan identifies specific programs and projects to be implemented by the County in the current program year.These projects are consistent with and designed to achieve the goals and objectives identified in the Five-Year Plan. As required by 24 CFR.91.52,the Contra Costa County Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report(CAPER.) for FY 2002/03 provides an analysis of the progress the County has made in the past three fiscal years in caging out the Five-Year Consolidated Plan,and the FY 2002/03 Action Plan for the CDBG, HOME,ESG and HOPWA�programs. 'The County's eligible area,known as the Urban County,is the entire County,less the cities of Antioch,Concord,Pittsburg,Richmond,and Walnut Creek which operate independent CDBG proms. a This report uses the following definitions: • Low-income households are defined as households with incomes at or below 80 percent of the Area Median Income(AMI)for the Oakland DMSA as adjusted for household size and defined on an annual basis by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development(HUD), • Very-low income households are defined as households with incomes at or below 50 percent of AMI. • Extremely-low income households are defined as households with incomes at or below 30 percent of AMI, 3 The City of Richmond is an independent jurisdiction for purposes of participation in the CDBG and HOME Programs, °Contra Costa County administers HOPWA funds under a Funding Agreement with the City of Oakland. A more detailed HOPWA annual report for Contra Costa County activities is provided to the City of Oakland for inclusion in its CAPER and is available to interested parties on request.

CABG Narrative A. Non-Housing Community Development A.I. Priority/goal assessment Non-housing community development activities are those that provide for a safe and livable environment as identified by the community. The County funds community development activities under three different categories;Economic Development,Infrastructure/Public Facilities,and Public Service. The County is committed to allocating fiends that serve the needs of the lowest income and most disadvantaged residents. The Contra Costa Board of Supervisors has identified as a priority for the allocation of CDBG funds the needs of children/families and the homeless, those segments of the population that are the most at-risk and powerless. The Contra Costa Consolidated Plan identifies the following priorities for non-housing community development needs. Economic Development CD-1 Reduce the number of persons below the poverty level,expand economic opportunities for very-low and low-income residents and increase the viability of neighborhood commercial areas. Infrastructure/Public Facilities CD-2 Maintain quality recreational,public facilities and adequate infrastructure and ensure access to the mobility impaired. CD-3 Continue to address physical barriers to public facilities and infrastructure as required through the Americans with Disabilities Act Public Services CD-4 Homeless Services: Reduce incidence of homelessness and assist in alleviating the needs of the homeless. CD-5 Special Needs-Prevention: Ensure access to programs that promote prevention and early intervention related to a variety of social concerns such as domestic violence, HIV/AIDS, Substance Abuse,illiteracy,and other issues experienced by special needs populations. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER. 5 DRAFT 9/3/2003 CD-6 Special Needs-Services: Ensure that opportunities and services are provided to improve the quality of life and independence for persons with special needs such as frail elderly, disabled persons, migrant farm workers, abused children, those with substance abuse problems, illiterate adults, battered spouses and persons with HIV/AIDS. CD-7 Communities: Target resources to underserved areas of the County to ensure that communities are safe and provide a high quality of life.

Affordable Housing See Section IV. HOME and CDBG lousing Narratives for discussion of affordable housing. C. Changes to the Program There were no changes to the CDBG program this year. D. Consolidated Plan Implementation/Certifications As indicated in the discussion on leveraging in Section H.D,the County diligently pursued resources identified in the annual Action Plan and Consolidated Plan. During FY 2002/03,the County supported efforts by local jurisdictions and nonprofit organizations to obtain additional federal resources for affordable housing development and programs and projects to assist the County's homeless populations by working with applicants to ensure consistency with the currently approved Contra Costa Consolidated Plan and providing the required certifications. The County has worked with the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa to ensure that its Five- Year and Annual PHA Plans are consistent with the Consolidated Plan. In addition to certifications, CDD staff works with other County departments to coordinate efforts in providing comprehensive services and programs that assist in implementation of the Consolidated Plan goals. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 9 DRAFT 9/9/2003 E. Displacement Narrative Priority in the allocation of funds is assigned to projects that do not involve permanent relocation. However,projects involving relocation may be funded if required to: eliminate unsafe or hazardous housing conditions; reverse conditions of neighborhood decline and stimulate revitalization of a specified area; and/or to accomplish high priority affordable housing projects. As specified in all Project Agreements and related loan documents,the County and project sponsors must adhere to the requirements of the Uniform Relocation Act (URA)in projects involving permanent or temporary relocation. In addition, wherever feasible, households and organizations will be offered the opportunity to remain in the project upon completion. The County has developed procedures for monitoring relocation activities to ensure full compliance with the URA. The procedures include: a pre-funding interview with a review of project sponsor capacity for carrying out relocation activities (e.g.,contracting with a qualified consultant,in-house staff experience); a mandatory subrecipient meeting that covers relocation requirements and procedures for reporting; and submission of relocation reports and copies of proper noticing throughout the relocation activities. No projects required relocation during the program year. F. Neighborhood Revitalization -- North Richmond Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area Accomplishments The North Richmond Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area(NRSA)was approved by HUD in August 1996. The purpose of the NRSA is to create opportunities for economic self-sufficiency through jobs and housing,viable neighborhood commercial areas,childcare,transportation,and safe streets. The County's intent has been to take a collaborative approach to making these opportunities a reality by working proactively with residents,the North Richmond Municipal Advisory Council,the County Redevelopment Agency,Employment and Human Services,Community Services,Health and Sheriffs Departments, and community based organizations and businesses. The majority of projects originally identified in the NRSA have been completed and an update to the Plan has begun and will be completed by the end of the calendar year. The update will include an assessment of current conditions, establish new benchmarks and identify short-term and long-term goals to be achieved. MRSA The following programs originally identified in the MRSA continue to operate and provide services to the comimunity of North Richmond. Both CDBG supported programs and non-CDBG supported programs are listed. • Rubicon's OPEN program(formerly West Contra Costa Community Access to Employment)has been on-going since FY 1996/97 and was expanded in FY 1999/00 to include Old Town San Pablo as well as North Richmond.

Of the persons enrolled in the program, 56%were fiorn North Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 10 DRAFT 9/3/2003 ......... _............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. .............................................................................................. _....................... _ _ ............. ..................................................................... _ __ _ _ .._..................... Richmond. • Neighborhood House of North Richmond Multi-Cultural Family and Senior Center(02-49-PS) continues to receive CDBG funding. The Center is host to a number of community meetings and events, and is home to a number of programs providing education and social services. CDBG funds are provided for operation and staffing of the Center. CDBG funds were also awarded (02-70-IPF) to make a number of improvements to the facility including making a number of accessibility improvements to the building. • The Service Integration Team(02-53-PS)provides case management and employment assistance to Cal Works clients and is administered by the County Administrators Office.This CDBG funded program attempts to remove substance abuse and mental health issues as a barrier to families striving to achieve economic self-sufficiency and optimal family functioning.

Thirty teachers and 5 parent-staff participated in this program during the year. • The Verde School Sports, Citizenship and Fitness project (02-68-PS) sponsored by the Verde Partnership Garden/Tides Center attempts to increase academic achievement and reduce conflicts by teaching students to play cooperatively, manage emotions and solve problems by providing structured playground activities. A total of 300 Verde students participated in this program. • The After School Outreach Performing Arts project(02-60-PS)sponsored by the East Bay Center for Perfonning Arts provides programs in music and dance to children at sites in North Richmond (Verde School) and San Pablo. A total of 238 students participated in these classes during the year. • Self-Sufficiency Through Licensed Family Day Care (02-16-ED) sponsored by the Cambride Community Center provides opportunities for low-income women to develop in-home day care centers in North Richmond and Bay Paint. • The Increase Your Business Success project(02-19-ED) sponsored by the West Contra County Business Development Center(BDC) provides technical assistance to microenterprises in West County to improve businesses and create jobs. This year, 9 new businesses were provided assistance by the BDC. These businesses created 33 new jobs. • The HomeCare Healthcare Career Training project(02-20-ED)sponsored by Rubicon Programs, provides training and placement services to low-income persons to develop careers in the health care profession. Though available to residents County-wide, the program has a strong west County focus.During the year,a total of 139 people were trained in the health care profession and placed in job. • The North Richu.-nond Enhancement and Circulation project(01-27-IPF)sponsored by the County Redevelopment Agency will increase community safety for pedestrians and motorists through Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 11 DRAFT 9/3/2003 circulation and streetscape improvements. A particular focus of the program is to reroute truck traffic away from the residential areas of North Richmond. • The Weed and Seed program is operated out of the County Employment and Human Services Department and sponsored by the U.S.Department of Justice. The program supports an additional officer from the Sheriff's Department and youth ernployrnent and educational programs through local non-profits in both North Richmond and Rodeo. • The Promoting Safe and Stable Families program administered by the Einployment and Human Services Department provides a variety of services to community residents through a collaboration of community-based organizations. Services include childcare,family planning,parenting classes, educational support groups, domestic violence counseling, youth activities and others. • The North Richmond Employment Collaborative managed by Neighborhood House of North Richmond provides employment services to area residents. • The Cominunity Preservation Program,operated by the County Building Inspection Department, implements rental ordinances and safety code requirements for rental and vacant property in order to ensure safe and sanitary housing and property. Community Action Plan The North Richmond community adopted a Community Action Plan (CAP) in April of 1999. The CAP is implemented by several committees composed primarily of community residents with support, by county staff. It focuses on education, cominunity appearance and safety, and economic development and employment.The updated MRSA will incorporate the goals of the CAP and include the activities of the CAP's committees as it is developed. Education • The.County Service Integration Program works closely with parents, the principal and staff of Verde Elementary School to improve student attendance and participation. As a result, absenteeism was reduced by thirty-eight percent during the school year following a seventy percent reduction the previous year. Monthly attendance averaged 92.3 percent for the year. • The District 1 Board of Supervisors office, the Federal Regional Council, and the West County Unified School District have worked closely together to identify programs and funding to enhance both the physical appearance of schools and educational opportunities for students. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 12 DRAFT 9/3/2003 Community Appearance and Safety During FY 2002/03,construction drawings were completed for streetscape improvements along the Third Street/Filbert Street corridor(01-27-IPF). This is the main route linking unincorporated North Richmond with the City of Richmond and is a primary target area of the Redevelopment Agency for connnercial development. The Phase 1 (from Chesley to Grove Avenue) improvements will be installed in the Fall of 2003. The City of Richmond will also be installing improvements on a two- block area to the south. ,Economic Development and Employment One objective of the CAP is to establish a Farmer's Market within the community. However, a traditional Farmer's Market proved to be infeasible for a variety of reasons. The community researched alternative approaches and the citizens committee approved the approach to establish a mobile farm stand with some of the produce grown at the grin Allen Bays Ranch in East Contra Costa County and transported to various locations in North Richmond by van. CDBG funds were awarded in FY 2000/01 for the purchase of this van. This project is in the late stages of development with implementation anticipated by the end 2003. Miscellaneous The following programs though not specific to North Richmond are available to North Richrnond residents and businesses. All projects are ongoing and funded through the CDBG and HOME programs. • Housing Development Assistance Fund—HOME and CDBG funds are available for the purpose of funding eligible housing projects during the program.year, • Rental Rehabilitation Program--CDBG resources are available throughout the program year for the purpose of rehabilitating rental housing affordable to low-income households. Since approval of the MRSA in 1996, 17 rental units affordable to low-income households in North Richmond have been rehabilitated through this program. • Neighborhood Preservation Program—Zero and low interest CDBG loans are available to owner occupants for home rehabilitation and renovation. Since approval of the NRSA, 15 units owned and occupied by very-low and low-income households in North Richmond have been rehabilitated through this program including five in FY 2002103. • Small Business and Microenterprise Loan Program---CDBG funds are available to persons and small businesses intending to start a business or expand an existing one. The following are Redevelopment Agency activities that continue in North Ri.clunond. • A feasibility analysis for a light industrial incubator sponsored by the Redevelopment Agency, was completed in FY 1997/98. The analysis concluded that a machining and tooling incubator was viable. CDBG funding was allocated for Phase II of the incubator feasibility study in FY Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 13 DRAFT 9/3/2003 1999/00(project 99-12-ED). This Phase of the study includes verification of assumptions in the feasibility analysis, development of a business plan, securing financing, and identifying and acquiring land or existing structures for construction or rehabilitation to house the incubator. Currently,the Agency is in the process of identifying potential sites for the incubator and securing funds for acquisition and development. • The Redevelopment Agency has continued to implement its First Source Hiring Agreements for new businesses or new construction in North Richmond. The Agency maintains an Abatement Revolving Loan Fund,which is available to cure health and safety violations. • The Redevelopment Agency, the Housing Authority of Contra Costa and Community Housing Development Corporation of North Richmond in joint application received a HUD YouthBuild grant for the North Richmond community. G. Five-year Assessment The priorities and strategies established for non-housing community development activities in the Consolidated Plan are intended to improve the livability and viability of our communities.Activities considered for funding must meet priorities for economic development, infrastructure and public facility improvements, the needs of the homeless, seniors, youth, families and special needs populations, underserved communities, and historic preservation. The practice of the County is to serve a minimum of 75 percent very-low and low-income persons in the Public Service category.An average of approximately percent of the total persons served in FY 2002/03 were very-low and low income. Likewise,training and placement programs specifically target extremely low-and very-low income persons,which has resulted in nearly 100 percent of participants meeting target incomes.

HOME and ODBC Housing Narratives The Contra Costa Consortium)Five-Yeas Plan establishes the following priorities for affordable housing programs and projects: H-1 Expand housing opportunities for lower-income households through an increase in the supply of decent, safe and affordable rental housing and rental assistance. H-2 Increase homeownership opportunities for lower-income households. H-3 Maintain and preserve the affordable housing stock. H-4 Improve the public housing stock. H-5 Adopt the Continuum of Care Flan as the overall approach to addressing homelessness in the Consortium. H-6 Assist the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless by providing emergency, transitional, and permanent affordable housing with appropriate supportive services. H-7 Increase the supply of appropriate and supportive housing for special needs populations. H-8 Alleviate problems of housing discrimination. H-9 Remove constraints to affordable housing development. A. Allocation of Funds During FY 2002/03, the County allocated CDBG, HOME, HOPWA and ESG funds in a manner consistent with these objectives and strategies.These projects are summarized under the appropriate strategy/need in Appendix E. Project information including expenditures,current project status and accomplishments,is contained in the Integrated Disbursement and Information System(IDIS).Printed copies of the report are available from the Community Development Department. B. Much Contributions The HOME program incurred a match liability of$457,302 in FY 2002/03,anal realized a total match of$976,949. Sources of match include the net present value of below market interest rate loans,the net present value of property tax waivers,land cost write-downs, and volunteer labor. See Appendix C for HOME match report, HUD-4107-A. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 16 DRAFT 9/3/2003 C. MBE/WBE Analysis A minority and women owned business enterprise(MBE/WBE)outreach program was adopted by the Board of Supervisors as a component of the Consortium HOME Program and the County's Affordable Housing Program. Consortium and County MBE/WBE policies are discussed at the Countywide HOME information meetings and at individual meetings with developers awarded HOME funds.In addition,requirements concerning minority and women-owned business participation in Consortium- funded HOME projects have been incorporated into all HOME project agreement and loan documents. Subrecipients must advertise business and contracting opportunities in a manner that would provide maximum notification to minority and women-owned business enterprises. Further,Subrecipients are encouraged to utilize certification lists maintained by local public agencies. As indicated in the.HUD-40107 form (see Appendix C), projects completed during the CAPER reporting period include: ■ A total of 49 contracts and sub-contracts • percent of all contracts were with minority-awned business enterprises • percent were with Asian/Pacific Islander-owned firms • percent were with Hispanic-owned firms ■ Minority-owned firms were awarded$$MM in contracts/subcontracts representing IV percent of the total contract amount ■ percent of all contracts were with women-owned firms ■ Women-owned firms were awarded$'���� �in contracts/subcontracts representing `percent of the total contract amount. The Community Development Department will continue to work with project sponsors to improve the participation of minority and women-owned business in housing developments. D. On-site Inspections Federal regulations require the County to perform on-site inspections of a reasonable sample ofrental housing units assisted with HOME funds in order to ensure continued compliance with Federal Housing Quality Standards. Projects with 26 or more HOME-assisted units must be inspected annually, projects with 5 to 25 units, every two years; and projects with up to 4 units, every three years. The Community Development Department (CDD) in consultation with the County's Building Inspection Department and the Housing Authority of Contra Costa County(HACCC)determined:that the federal Housing Quality Standards (HQS) are the appropriate standards to use in annual compliance monitoring.All new construction and rehabilitation ofhousing in the County is completed in strict accordance with Uniform Building Codes.HQS is used to evaluate the condition of existing properties to ensure housing is maintained in a safe and sanitary condition. HACCC and CDD staff Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 17 DRAFT 9/3/2003 performed inspections of 10 to 15 percent of the HOME-assisted units for each monitored project. Copies of the inspection reports are maintained at the CDD offices. During the current reporting period, the County performed on-site inspections of 11 HOME- assisted projects. In addition to HOME projects, four CDBG-assisted housing projects were randomly selected for monitoring. The following table summarizes onsite inspections conducted over the current reporting period.

Affirmative Marketing Please see Section VIII.C,Fair Housing and Appendix D for discussion on affirmative marketing. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 18 DRAFT 9/3/2003 F. Actions to Address the Housing Needs of Special Needs Populations County actions to address housing needs of Contra Costa's special needs populations through the development of affordable housing are summarized in Appendix E,Housing Table(Priority H-7). In FY 2002/03 Resources for Community Development completed Alvarez Court in Pinole. This project will provide housing for physically disabled adults,including those with HIV/AIDS diagnosis. In addition three project which house senior residents,Danville Senior(Sycamore Place) in Danville,Rodeo Senior(Rodeo Gateway)in Rodeo, and Tice Maks in Walnut Creek were also completed. In addition to the above, all new residential construction projects funded with County resources are required to include units accessible to disabled populations. A minimum of five percent of all units built and all common areas must be accessible to mobility impaired persons and an additional two percent must be accessible to vision and/or hearing impaired persons. G. Slow Moving Projects During the current program year, Contra Costa made significant progress toward meeting its affordable housing goals. In measuring the County's accomplishments, it must be noted that the majority of funded housing projects are complex, involving new construction or acquisition and rehabilitation ofmultifamily housing and requiring multiple funding sources.In general,these projects require two to five years from initial development planning to completion and occupancy.In order to facilitate the ability of the project sponsor to obtain additional funding from other sources (e.g., LIHTCs, FHLB Affordable Housing Program, HUD 202 and 811), the County often commits resources relatively early in the process.Therefore,the number of units funded and completed with current resources is significantly less than the number funded and in development.The housing table in Appendix E includes projects that have been designated as delayed(or slow-moving). H. Displacement See the displacement discussion under Section III.E. L Accomplishments Appendix E contains a summary of FY 2002/03 completed and ongoing housing projects. In. addition,the Contra Costa County HOME Consortium is ranked as the highest performing HOME Consortium in California according to a HUD analysis.

HOPWA Narrative—HIV/AIDS Activities County Community Development and Health Services Department staff meet periodically to identify and address the housing and housing-related service needs of low-income persons with HIV/AIDS in Contra Costa.Activities during FY 2002/03 include inter jurisdictional planning efforts to evaluate project proposals,refinement of the current referral process for affordable HIV/AIDS housing, and provision of technical assistance to current and potential developers of affordable housing and related services for persons with HIV/AIDS. In addition to these activities, the County HIV/AIDS Program allocated$1,851,205 in FY 2002/03 HOPWA and Ryan White CARE funds for the following services which address the needs of low- income persons with HIV;AIDS in Contra Costa: $602,170 for case management, $147,141 for emergency housing and other assistance, $196,293 for food, $90,000 for housing advocacy, and $725,601 for other support services such as mental health, substance abuse, client advocacy, transportation,nutritional counseling, and legal services. Contra Costa apportions approximately 20 percent of its HOPWA allocation to the Contra Costa Health Services Department(HSD)to provide housing advocacy services to persons with HIV/AIDS. The balance is used for acquisition/rehab and new construction of affordable housing for persons with HIV/AIDS. All funds are awarded to subrecipients on a competitive application basis. During FY 2002/03,HSD allocated$90,000 in HOPWA funds to Catholic Charities of the East Bay and Shelter, Inc. to provide housing advocacy services, including client intake, housing needs assessment, assistance with locating affordable housing, assistance with housing-related benefit applications, development and implementation of client housing plans,follow-up to ensure receipt of benefits and housing, and referral to other services. In addition, the County allocated $370,000 in HOPWA funds to Resources for Community Development to develop the Bay View Community project.This project will provide five apartments to persons with HIV/AIDS. An additional 46 units will provide housing for families. See also the discussion on Public Service projects that target individuals with HIV/AIDS(Section III. Priority CD-6). See Section IV for information on housing projects carried out with HOPWA funds. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 22 DRAFT 9/3/2003 Section 'VI. ESC Narrative Contra Costa County receives an annual allocation of federal Emergency Shelter Grants(ES G)funds through HUD. In FY 2002/03, the County received $135,000 in ESG funds, which, in turn, were allocated to eligible agencies on a competitive application basis. Proposed projects were evaluated based on several criteria including consistency with the Contra Costa Consolidated Plan and the Continuum of Care Plan. These plans identify priorities and specific actions to alleviate homeless needs in Contra Costa. (Additional information on actions to address the needs of the homeless population can be found in Appendix E, Priority CD-4.) Appendix E describes the ongoing and completed ESG projects, including match. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER. 23 DRAFT 9/3/2003 Section VII general Narratives A. Five-year Assessment See Tables C and J for the five-year assessment. B. Location of Projects (Investments) and Public Participation (Beneficiaries) See Appendix A for a status of projects including location and project beneficiaries. C. Fair Housing Over the past year,the County continued working to overcome or eliminate impediments to fair housing choice identified in the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice(AI).The specific Al recommendations addressed this year are as follows Action 1.1 -Participating jurisdictions are strongly recommended to work toward achieving substantial compliance with State law. In a letter dated March 26, 2002 the Department ofHousing and Community Development determined that the Contra Costa Mousing Element adopted on December 18, 2001 is in compliance with State housing element law. Compliance was conditioned on the County's implementation ofProgram 19 to re-zone at least 10 acres to M29 zoning to facilitate lower-income housing development by 2003. On June 18,2002 the Board ofSupervisors approved the PittsburglBay Point B RTStationArea Speck Plan, which increased densities up to 65 units per acre in 7 S acres aced 29 units per acre in 31 acres. On February 11, 2003 the.Board of Supervisors approved the planned-unit district rezoning and the (anal development plan for the Bay Point redevelopment area. This action brought the zoning into compliance with the Specific Flan densities. Therefore, the County has met its condition of compliance. During the program year, the Urban County jurisdictions of El Cerrito,.Lafayette,Pinole,Pleasant Dill, and Sara Pablo adapted Housing Elements that are in compliance with the State requirements. Action 2.1 -Through the Consolidated Plan and one-year Action Plan,the Consortium should continue to allocate resources to encourage and facilitate the development of affordable housing throughout the entire Consortium.Also, adequate resources should continue to be allocated to provide fair housing education and outreach efforts. In FY 2002103, resources were allocated to develop 145 new units of affordable housing in different regions of the County. In addition, resources were provided for multi_family and single- family rehabilitation programs,first time homebuyer programs, and fair housing counseling, legal services, and outreach (See Table.). Action 3.2 -The Housing Authority of Contra Costa County and the Housing Authority of the City of Pittsburg should continue to conduct outreach efforts to promote acceptance of the Section 8 program by property owners,particularly in areas outside of minority and poverty concentrations. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 24 DRAFT 9/3/2003 Action 8.1 - The Consortium should encourage the fair housing service providers to develop one brochure to describe fair housing services offered by the three service providers,including geographic areas covered by the service providers and contact infonnation. This effort is underway and should be complete in the early part of FY 03104. Action 8.2 - Participating jurisdictions should consider providing links on their official web sites to the web sites of the fair housing service providers. A notice was sent to all jurisdiction webmasters requesting that the links to the web sites of Housing Rights, Inc. and Bay Area Legal Aid be added to their official web sites. Action 9.1 -Fair housing service providers should work collaboratively to develop a format for reporting fair housing services that can allow compilation of data to assess trends and patterns. This effort is underway. Consortium members met with the fair housing providers to discuss coordination of services and reporting. All parties agreed that it is necessary to develop standardized procedures. Consortium members will meet again in the first quarter of FY 2003104 to determine and implement the next step. Action 10.1 - The Consortium and fair housing service providers should consult with lenders to explore ways to i nprove access to financing for all. The Mortgage Credit Certificate program reserves 40 percent of its allocation for households with incomes at or below SO percent of area median income. Lenders have been cooperative with this program, and 41 Mortgage Credit Certificates were provided to low-income households in the last fiscal year. Action 12.3 - State law requires local jurisdictions to either adopt ordinances that establish the conditions under which second units will be permitted or to follow the State law provisions governing such units. On May 19, 2003, the City of Pleasant Hill amended its Zoning Ordinance as it pertained to secondary dwelling units so that it now conforms to State guidelines. On June 3, 2003, the County Board of Supervisors adopted a revised Second Unit Ordinance to comply with recent changes to State law. D. Affordable Housing See Section IV.

The County continues to use Planned Unit Development (P-1) zoning to streamline the development process and permit the use of flexible design standards for projects with an affordable or special needs housing component. The County also provides expedited plan review and pen-nit processing, flexible design standards, and deferred or reduced fees for affordable housing projects in County redevelopment areas on a case-by case basis. • Through the Employment and Human Services Department, the County has developed housing programs targeting families who are transitioning from welfare to work.The purpose of these programs is to help families obtain and/or maintain affordable housing. Housing assistance programs include the following: housing information and referral; grants to assist households in moving closer to employment; transition support grants;emergency assistance grants; and housing counseling for tenants. Unfortunately due to State budget cuts, FY 2002/03 is the last year of this program. F4 Actions to overcome gaps in the institutional structure The County Corurnunity Development Department continues to provide technical assistance to area non-profits to build capacity and assist in the development of programs and projects designed to meet the County's Consolidated Plan objectives through individual meetings and workshops held during the program.year. Further,the Department works with non-profits to achieve designation as a Comrmun ty Housing Development Organization(CHDO)and/or Community Based Development Organization (CBDO) for purposes of participating in the Consortium HOME and County CDBG affordable housing programs. F5 Actions to improve public housing and resident initiatives Section 8/Housing Choice Vouchers For the FY 2.002/03 the total resource for the Section 8 program was $67,778,314. The Housing Authority's aim is to administer the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program to pen-nit the widest range of housing opportunities for low-income Contra Costa County residents. To help meet this goal, the Housing Authority has sub-programs that target special populations and neighborhood revitalization efforts. A description of these programs is provided below. + Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCV) The Housing Authority Housing Choice Voucher program currently administers 6,687 vouchers. This number represents a 100% utilization of its baseline unit allocation. The Housing Choice Voucher waitlist has over 3,5030 families. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 30 DRAFT 9/3/2003 The Housing Authority received $314,239 in FY 2002/03 HUD funds to operate a comprehensive Drug Elimination Program(PHDEP)at its Rodeo and North Richmond public housing developments. Activities supported include community-oriented policing to reduce drug traffic, economic self- sufficiency services (e.g., life skills, computer training,job development) and children educational opportunities("Piny Tots [Look, Listen & Learn], Homework Club and Harry Potter Reading Club, etc.).These activities have been supplemented through formal establishment of"Weed& Seed Safe Havens"at the YMCA in Rodeo (30—45 children are served daily) and through the Project PRIDE recreation program (70 — 90 children are provided services daily) and collaborative efforts with Neighborhood House Community Center in North Richmond. Safe Haven programs include computer training,drug prevention workshops,cooking class,arts and crafts,conflict resolution,sport,and other recreational activities. PHDEP programs for the FY 200.2/03 is still being funded by the 2001 Drug Elimination grant. The federal government has eliminated the PHDEP program. The HACCC will continue to fund the operation of the comprehensive Drug Elimination Program.However,support for coni munity-oriented policing has been reduced. Without the PHDEP funds, HACCC will only be able to support one Deputy, rather than two full-time positions. Presently, 2/3 of the PHDEP grant goes toward law enforcement, and 1/3 toward drug prevention activities, such as Project PRIDE and the YMCA. Employment The Housing Authority is still under Contract with Rubicon to facilitate our Project Employ job readiness program at both Las Deltas in North Richmond and El Pueblo in Pittsburg.This program has been modified to include pre-employment skills training, job placement and case management. Residents from both Rodeo and Pittsburg have been assisted by Project Employ this year. Residents have been permanently hired at various jobs,or are in some form of job training or receiving some other type of employment support (substance abuse counseling, child care or transportation assistance). In the upcoming year, Pittsburg and North Richmond public housing residents will be targeted for enrollment in Project Employ. The Comprehensive Apprenticeship Self-Sufficiency and Entrepreneurship (CASE)program is a public/private partnership providing ladders to career success in the painting industry for public housing residents. The Contra Costa Housing Authority collaborated with Cypress Mendela/WIST and Painters and Tapers Union to establish this program for public housing residents interested in careers as painters. Candidates received pre-apprenticeship training to establish job readiness, including work nonms, physical capacity, improving self-knowledge, and being drug free. As required under the terms of the contract established by the Housing Authority, a local painting contractor working on painting a public housing development was required to hire pre- apprenticeship graduates as trainees. Upon completion, successful trainees were guaranteed acceptance into the union's apprenticeship program,job placement and ultimately, a career in the painting industry. Youth Activities The Housing Authority continued to work with the Police Activities League to operate a computer learning center at the Alhambra public housing development in Martinez.The purpose of the program is to provide training and employment skills for local teenage residents.

In addition,all housing development funds are provided to projects in the form of a loan, with applicable federal regulations, and affordability and use restrictions incorporated into the loan documents and effective throughout the tern of the loan. + Following approval of FY 2002%03 funding allocations for CDBG and HOME, a mandatory meeting was held with all project sponsors to discuss County Affordable Housing Program and federal regulatory requirements. An overview of the contracting and project implementation process was followed by presentations on CDBG/HOME Project Agreements, regulatory requirements, project loan documents, federal environmental review procedures, documentation and procedures required for payment, and monitoring and reporting requirements. + During project implementation, project sponsors are required to submit quarterly progress reports detailing project progress, significant development problems, project funding and expenditures,outreach to women and minority-owned businesses,and affinnative marketing activity. In addition, projects are monitored as applicable for compliance with federal accounting and procurement standards, labor and construction standards, relocation, affirmative marketing, equal opportunity, fair housing, and other federal requirements. i Following project completion, project sponsors are required to submit Project Completion Reports identifying:project accomplishments;population served,including data on household characteristics(e.g.,income,ethnicity);rent and/or housing affordability;and total sources and uses of funds. + Affordable housing development projects(e.g., acquisition,rehabilitation,new construction) must also submit annual compliance reports designed to ensure continued compliance with federal regulations,affordability and use restrictions,and other requirements as specified in the project loan documents. In addition,all HOME-assisted projects are subject to periodic onsite inspections to ensure continuedd compliance with federal housing quality standards. F.7 b Non-Housing Community Development Projects and Programs Monitoring procedures for non.-housing projects and programs are similar to those described for housing projects and programs. + Prior to funding consideration, all applications are reviewed for consistency with federal regulations, the Consolidated Plan, and Board of Supervisor policy. + Following funding approval, project sponsors are required to enter into Project Agreements which specify: project objectives: scope of work; applicable time lines and performance `Includes compliance with federal regulations concerning;equal opportunity and fair housing;affinnative marketing;displacement, relocation and acquisition; Davis-Bacon labor standards; lead-based paint; conflict of interest; federal debannent and suspension; environmental requirements;historic preservation;and flood insurance. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 34 DRAFT 9/3/2003 across agencies. Contra Costa County,in partnership with the Workforce Investment Boards fi om the City of Richmond, Alameda, and Oakland has fonned a collaborative known as "Eastbay Works". Presently there are 14 East Bay One Stop and Career Centers,more con nonly known as One Stops; six of which specifically serve the needs of Contra Costa residents. One Stops are located in Richmond, Hilltop Mall (also in the City of Riclunond), Concord, Pittsburg, Brentwood and San Pablo. The North Richmond Employment Collaborative opened in November of 1998 and provides employment services primarily to residents of North Richmond and surrounding communities,and is electronically linked to the One Stop facilities. In addition, Bay Point works Community Career Center provides employment services to residents of Bay Point. The East Bay One Stop and Career Centers offer services to the universal population that include targeted services for those who are presently receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds. In addition to lob Training Partnership Act funds,the Workforce Investment Boards receive Welfare to Work formula grants and have secured competitive grants to provide enhanced services and expanded training options for this population. Services are available for eligible individuals and include in-depth assessment, team case management, training, Job placement assistance,,and development of skills leading to higher wage earnings. CalWORKS clients also have an option to participate in a child care training program,carried out in cooperation with the Regional Occupation Program(ROP)from the County Office of Education,Los Medanos College and adult schools in each area of the County. Clients earn six ROP units, which can be transferred to Los Medanos College towards an Early Childhood teaching credential. The program staff teach classes in Spanish and provide ESL classes. Participants in the program have attained employment in childcare centers(including Head Start),in private hornes as nannies,or were successful in securing other types of employment. During FY 2002/03, the Contra Costa County Transportation Alliance provided the following programs. • Vehicle Loan and Auto Donation program to provide Cal Works participants with low cost vehicles. • Demand-Response Transportation program to guarantee participants a ride to work.This program began in September 2001 and continues to expand. • The Children's Transportation Program that provides bus service to and from school and childcare for children of CalWorks families continues to be successful. Currently there are nine buses operating daily with a long waiting list for this service. In addition,the Alliance continues to work closely with local service providers and County agencies to expand bus service in low-income areas. Opportunities for microenterprise and small business development are facilitated through a Small Business and Microenterprise Loan Program(02-25-ED)sponsored by the County's CDBG Program. The purpose of the program is to stimulate local economic growth by providing loans and technical assistance to microenterprises and small businesses. Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 36 DRAFT 9/3/2003 Due primarily to the recent rapid escalation in housing prices,project sponsors have also experienced a lack of production in first-tune homebuyer assistance programs.Current high housing prices require subsidies to assist low-income households in purchasing a home that generally exceed acceptable per unit subsidy levels.This was been a problem for the Pinole First-time Homebuyer Program(HSG 98- 2). Since being funded in FY 1998/99, this prograin has assisted only six first-time homebuyers compared to a program objective of 13.The City decided to suspend the CDBG-funded portion of the project,which targeted households earning less than 80 percent of the area median income. While the County's accomplishments are significant, problems persist in timely implementation of some programs and projects.Affordable housing projects often experience significant delays between the initial cornrnitment of County funds and completion. These delays relate to the complexity of housing finance and the ability of project sponsors to obtain the remaining resources required to fully fund a project. In order to compete effectively for major funding sources such as nine-percent LIHTCs, taxa-exempt bond funds, HUD Section 202/811, and State Housing Programs, project sponsors must have firm funding commitments from local jurisdictions. The high demand for affordable housing resources of all types combined with the limited supply of funds has resulted in an extremely competitive financing enviromnent in Contra Costa County and the Bay Area,potentially causing lengthy delays in the completion of affordable housing projects. Delays in project implementation in the current construction environment also result in increased project costs,requiring supplemental funding from the County and other sources of financing. The County,on behalf ofthe HOME Consortium,is extremely pleased with its high evaluation in the "HOME Program Performance SNAPSHOT."The Consortium was ranked number one in the State of California and the 94 percentile nationwide. Historically the County's infrastructure projects have been very slow moving. Staff gave considerable focus to the infrastructure category this year to close outstanding projects, and ensure viable current projects.During this year,ten of the seventeen outstanding projects were closed,and the design phase began for the remaining seven outstanding projects. During the application process,staff scrutinized each of the timelines submitted, and included contingencies for timeliness in funding recommendations. As discussed in preceding years,there is ongoing concern about the long-tenn capacity of the non- profit community providing services in Contra Costa County and their ability to comply with often complex federal regulations and requirements in implementing federally funded programs. Contributing factors include the relatively low pay scale associated with non-profits leading to high staff turnover and a lack of resources for ongoing training and professional development. In an effort to address this issue, the County provides technical assistance to non-profit organizations receiving County CDBG and HOME.funds,including workshops on contracting,budget and payment requests, federal regulations and other County requirements. The County and the other CDBG jurisdictions have also consolidated processes and procedures to limit the administrative burden of our grant programs.A joint grant cycle kick-off meeting was held for current subrecipients and other local non-profit agencies to introduce our CDBG and HOME program application processes.We consolidated our quarterly report forms so that our subrecipients only need to fill out one form for all of the jurisdictions.

Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 42 DRAFT 9/3/2003 Appendix D — Affirmative Marketing Procedures The objective of affirmative marketing within the context ofthe HOME,CDBG,HOPWA,and ESG Programs is to promote equal access to housing by all groups within the relevant market area. In order to accomplish this objective in accordance with federal regulations the County has adopted the following policies and measures: 1. Methods for informing the public, owners, and potential tenants about the HOME, CDBG, HOPWA,and ESG Programs,federal fair housing laws and the County's affirmative marketing op a. Information concerning the availability of funding, housing opportunities, and fair housing and affirmative marketing requirements will be distributed to: the general public; all jurisdictions and housing agencies located in the County;nonprofit and for-profit owners and developers of affordable housing; and minority and public interest groups representing the County's disadvantaged populations. Methods of distribution will include: a. Press releases to the local news media. b. Preparation and distribution of an informational brochure describing the HOME,CDBG, HOPWA, and ESG Programs, including fair housing and affirmative marketing requirements, and the Equal Housing Opportunity logo. C. Meetings and workshops with potential applicants for HOME funds (e.g., cities, developers, current operators and owners of affordable housing). d. Meetings and workshops with representatives ofminority and other disadvantaged groups in Contra Costa County, including the NAACP, United Council of Spanish Speaking Organizations, Pacific Community Services, Contra Costa Legal Services Foundation, Borth Richmond Neighborhood House, Housing Alliance, and the Chinese American Political Association. e. The County will maintain records concerning the above activities, including copies of press releases,affirmative marketing materials distributed,and workshops and meetings held with the above groups and organizations. 2. Requirements and practices owners of assisted housing must adhere to in order to carry out the County's affirmative marketing procedures and requirements. The County will require owners of federally assisted housing to comply with federal fair housing law and employ the following affirmative marketing activities: Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 43 DRAFT 9/3/2003 a. Advertise the availability of assisted units on an equal opportunity basis in local newspapers and community newsletters, such as those published by minority groups, neighborhood churches, public service organizations, etc.; and on bulletin boards in community gathering spots (e.g., community center, church, supermarket, laundroimat, fair housing/housing counseling agency, and employment office). b. Contact appropriate neighborhood and community organizations and representatives of minority and other disadvantaged groups to solicit tenants and provide inforimation about the availability of the assisted units on an equal opportunity basis. C. Display the Equal Housing Opportunity logo at the project location and in all advertisements pertaining to assisted units. 3. Special outreach procedures to be used by owners of assisted units to solicit applications from hard-to-reach populations who maynot otherwise apply for residence in these units. a. In conducting the advertising and outreach activities described in 2.a and b above,owners of assisted units will be required to solicit the cooperation of appropriate organizations in the relevant market area in identifying hard-to-reach populations and informing prospective tenants from these groups of the availability of the units on an equal opportunity basis. Organizations which maybe particularly effective in this effort include community churches, social service organizations, housing and homeless service providers, and minority and senior citizen groups. As appropriate, owners may request organizations to assist in distributing marketing information concerning the availability of rental units through newsletters, group meetings, and organization and community bulletin boards. b. Again, all advertisements,workshops,meetings and notices concerning the assisted-units will emphasize that the units are available on an equal opportunity basis. 4. Record keeping requirements. The County will require recipients of federal funds to keep records concerning affirmative marketing activities. These records must include copies of advertisements placed in newspapers/newsletters and on local bulletin boards,as well as lists of community groups and organizations contacted to solicit tenants. Recipients will also be required to keep information on relevant tenant characteristics, including ethnic composition, income,household size, and age and sex of head of household. 5. Assessment of affirmative marketinp, activities. The County will require the information compiled in 4 above to be reported annually as a component of the project monitoring process. Affirmative marketing activities will be evaluated to ensure that an adequate level of activity is maintained. Tenant characteristics will be compared with population characteristics in the market area as a further indicator of the effectiveness of the affirmative marketing program and the absence of discrimination. Where discrepancies exist,the County will work with the project owner to determine whether additional affirmative marketing measures are required. Requirements concerning affirmative marketing and fair housing compliance will be incorporated in contract and loan agreements for all assisted projects. The County will document any complaints Contra Costa County FY 2002/2003 CAPER 44 DRAFT 9/3/2003 received concerning a project recipient's failure to abide by all fair housing and equal opportunity lavas. All such complaints will be carefully evaluated to determine their validity. In the event that a violation is identified,the County will inform the recipient and take appropriate action to ensure that the situation is corrected.
