Strategy and Plan for the Community Development Block Grant/Home Investment Partnership Program to
the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On March 9, 1999, the City Council selected the organizations to receive funding under the City’s
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership Program for fiscal year
1999-2000. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires the preparation of
an annual planning document as a condition to receiving CDBG and HOME funding.
The plan must include the following: 1) Standard form 424-Application for Federal Assistance; 2)
Description of activities to be undertaken to address priority housing and community development needs
and local objectives; 3) Activities to address the housing needs of homeless; and 4) Actions to foster
and maintain affordable housing. Staff has prepared the annual plan, also known as the Consolidated
Funding Strategy and Plan, for fiscal year 1999-2000 in accordance with the federal regulations.
Regulations also require that the annual plan be available for a 30 day review and comment period. A
public notice was published on March 15, 1999, to begin the public review and comment period. Copies
of the annual plan have been available for review in City facilities and staff have been available’to receive
comments or answer questions regarding the plan. Comments were accepted until April 15, 1999.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City of Carlsbad will receive an estimated new allocation of $609,000 in CDBG funds for program
year 1999-2000. The City may use a maximum of twenty percent of the allocation, or $121,800, for
administration of the CDBG/HOME Program. A grant agreement for the funds will not be executed by
HUD until the City’s 1999-2000 Consolidated Plan is submitted to them for approval. The CDBG Program
has no impact on the General Fund.
As a participant in the San Diego Urban County HOME Investment Partnership Consortium, the City will
receive a new allocation of approximately $225,811 to increase affordable housing opportunities in
Carlsbad. Administration of the HOME Consortium, including overall program management, is the
responsibility of the County of San Diego. The County will submit an annual plan to HUD on behalf of the
Consortium for approval of HOME funds. The HOME Program has no impact on the General Fund.

B. Projected Financial Resources to be Available
The financial resources for addressing housing and community development needs are fairly limited for
the City of Carlsbad. To ultimately reach the vision and goals of the City, a variety of resources must
be used to achieve each objective. Limited City resources must be leveraged with additional funds
from private and public sources and programs.
The City’s policy is to leverage, to the maximum extent feasible, the use of funds available in the
development of affordable housing and the maintenance and preservation of existing housing which
serve identified needs categories. The City supports the use of CDBG, HOME, and Redevelopment
Set-Aside funds for predevelopment activities and “gap financing” by private and non-profit entities in
their efforts to develop affordable housing. The City will consider the utilization of Redevelopment
Housing Set Aside Funds to further affordable housing goals whenever a match, grant, or loan is
necessary and appropriate to ensure the financial feasibility of a project. Criteria for the leveraging of
funds will be the ratio of federal funds to other funds.
The City anticipates that the following resources will be available for 1999-2000:

CITY OF CARLSBAD
1999-2000 CONSOLIDATED PLAN
1. Affordable Housing Activities
Approximately 812 non-homeless households, families, and individuals are expected to receive housing
services in 1999-2000 through the Section 8 Tenant-Based Rental Assistance Program, new
construction, first time home buyer programs, and single family residential rehabilitation.
Approximately 75 percent of this number is expected to be very low income households whose income
is below 50 percent of the median family income for San Diego County. The following describes the
specific plan for investment the City reasonably expects to be available this upcoming program year.
a. Section 8 Tenant-Based Rental Assistance Program
The 1999-2000 Section 8 Rental Assistance Program anticipates a total budget of $2,923,395 for rental
assistance payments and administrative fees. This budget will allow the city to continue to provide
rental assistance to a total of 503 very low-income households during fiscal year 1999-2000. The City
has approved housing assistance payment contracts with property owners to commit these funds.
With the proposed cuts in the budget for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s
Section 8 Rental Assistance Program, it is expected that additional certificates/vouchers will not be
available for 1999-2000.
b. New Construction of Rental Units
The City provided assistance in the financing of a construction project known as the Laurel Tree
Apartments by committing $700,000 in Redevelopment Low Income Housing Set Aside and Housing
Trust Funds for the project. This funding will meet the matching funds requirement of the HOME
program. Construction of the project began in the fall of 1998, and is expected to be completed in
December of 1999.
The Laurel Tree Apartment project will provide approximately 138 new housing units, with 128 units
affordable to very low-income households. The units will vary in size from one bedroom units to four
bedroom units, accommodating single persons, and small and large related households. It is envisioned
that 14 one bedroom units will be provided, 64 two bedroom units, 46 three bedroom units, and 14
four bedrooms units.
The City Council has also provided construction financing for the Ranch0 Carrillo Apartments. The
City has provided $1.16 million from the City’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund to assist in the
construction of 116 units affordable to very low and low tenants. The units will consist of 12 one-
bedroom units, 48 two-bedroom units and 56 three-bedroom units. Construction began in January of
1999 and will be available for occupancy in December of 1999.
In December of 1998, the City Council agreed to provide $920,000 in construction financing to the
Poinsettia Station Apartments Project. This project will provide 92, 1,2 and 3 bedroom units, all of
which will have rents not to exceed 60% of the area median income. In addition to construction
financing, the City Council has agreed to issue up to $6.5 million in tax exempt bonds to further assist
in developing the project. Construction is anticipated to begin in the summer of 1999.
C. New Construction of Owner Occupied Units
The City has provided $453,000 from the City’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund to assist in the
development of a for sale residential project known as Cherry Tree Walk. The project will provide 235
new housing units, with 42 units affordable to low income households. It is anticipated that there will
8
CITY OF CARLSBAD
1999-2000 CONSOLIDATED PLAN
be 12 two bedroom and 30 three bedroom affordable units. Construction will be complete in May of
1999.
The City council has also agreed to provide $75,000 from the City’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund to
assist in the development of five four-bedroom single family homes in Calavera Hills. The units will
include 1,800 square feet of living are and a two car garage. The units will be available for purchase
by low income households. Construction is to begin in May of 1999.
d. Single Family Residential Rehabilitation
A single family residential rehabilitation program is currently being administered by the County of San
Diego on behalf of the City of Carlsbad. This residential rehabilitation program targets very low and
low-income single family homeowners, including mobile homes. The program provides two types of
loans, an interest subsidy loan and a deferred loan. For the interest subsidy loans, the City’s funds will
be leveraged with funds from a private financial institution. The financial institution will provide
conventional financing with the City paying part of the interest rate to offer qualified lower-income
household a below market interest loan. Deferred loans will be made by the City to lower-income
households who cannot qualify for conventional financing. The loan will be offered with no interest
and will be repaid upon change in title of the property. Grants will be provided to elderly or
handicapped households for rehabilitation regarding health and safety issues and to lower-income
households for weatherization.
There is an existing balance of approximately $394,516 as of March 1, 1999 in previously allocated
HOME Consortium funds for the rehabilitation of single family homes. These funds will be able to
provide assistance to eighteen (18) single family home owners and four (4) mobilehome owners.
The City will have approximately $225,811 in new funding available from the County of San Diego
HOME Consortium for the single family and multifamily residential rehabilitation program. With
limited resources allocated for this program, it is anticipated that five (5) additional lower-income
households will be assisted with residential rehabilitation in fiscal year 1999-2000.
e. Homebuyer Programs
As a participant in the San Diego County Regional Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) program,
MCCs are available for first-time home buyers in the City of Carlsbad. The MCC program allows a
first time home buyer to take a federal income tax credit of 20 percent of the annual interest paid on the
home mortgage. This program will provide MCC’s to primarily moderate-income households and in
some cases lower-income households to help them qualify for a home purchase loan.
The San Diego County Regional MCC Program has applied for additional funding for calendar year
1999. Allocations are expected to be determined in May of 1999 and it is anticipated that the City of
Carlsbad will receive approximately $500,000 in MCC credit. The City of Carlsbad anticipates that ten
(10) MCCs will be issued in 1999-2000 to persons purchasing a home in Carlsbad.
Additionally, the City will be providing subsidy assistance to low income first time home buyers
through the Carlsbad Homebuyer Assistance Program (CHAP). The City will provide a maximum of
$20,000 in the form of a non interest bearing loan to bridge the gap between the loan amount a low
income household can qualify for and the purchase price of a home. The term of this loan is 15 years.
Payments will be deferred the first five years of the loan. CHAP funds are currently available.
9
CITY OF CARLSBAD
1999-2000 CONSOLIDATED FUNDING PLAN
As of January 31, 1999, the City has $3,200,000 reserved in the Affordable Housing Trust fund for the
CHAP. Approximately 160 low income households will be provided with home buyer assistance. It is
anticipated that approximately fifty (50) households will be assisted through this program in the 1999-
2000 program year.
2. Community Development Activities
In March of 1999, the Carlsbad City Council selected 21 community development proposals,
amounting to $704,565.66, for funding under the federal Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) program. The City will be eligible to receive $609,000 in new CDBG funds for 1999-2000 to
finance the projects which will assist low and moderate income persons. In addition, the City has
$95,565.66 in CDBG funds which were allocated in previous year to projects which have been
canceled or completed with a surplus of funds and will need to be reallocated to other eligible activities.
The total funds available for allocation in 1999-2000 is $704,565.66. A list of the community
development proposals selected for funding in 1999-2000 are listed in Table 3-Listing of Proposed
Projects.

1999-2000 CONSOLIDATED FUNDING PLAN
3. Housing Activities for the Homeless
During 1999-2000, the City will attempt to address the needs of homeless individuals, families, or
persons with special needs: severe mental illnesses, drug or alcohol addiction, diagnosed with AIDS or
HIV, fleeing domestic violence and non-homeless persons with special needs through the funding of
various non-profit agencies under Carlsbad’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program.
The following organizations have been selected for funding during fiscal year 1999-2000 and provide
facilities and services for non-homeless persons with special needs, homeless persons, homeless persons
with special needs, and other low and moderate-income households:

32 35
CITY OF CARLSBAD
1999-2000 CONSOLIDATED FUNDING PLAN
On September 5, 1995, the City Council adopted a resolution declaring the City of Carlsbad’s intention
to participate with other jurisdictions in the North San Diego County Coastal region to address the
needs of homeless persons and families on a region wide basis. North County jurisdictions, with the
assistance of local social service providers, continue to meet and work cooperatively to discuss the
region wide approach and various strategies, such as the North County Regional Homeless Shelter, to
address the shelter and supportive service needs of the homeless.
D. Geographic Distribution - All Priorities
The City intends to develop lower-income affordable units throughout the entire city thereby reducing
the impact of housing on any one area within Carlsbad. City staff will be responsible for initiating or
facilitating the development of this housing through agreements with local for-profit and non-profit
housing developers (including agreements to provide City assistance) and through managing/monitoring
the affordability of these housing units in future years.
City resources for the provision, construction, or improvements to public services or facilities to meet
the community development needs will also be distributed throughout the City. The City will also
consider the allocation of resources to public service organizations located outside of the City limits in
those instances where such public services are limited within the San Diego North County Coastal area,
but provide adequate access to Carlsbad residents.
E. Institutional Structure
1. Funding and Incentives for Affordable Housing
The City of Carlsbad has been working with local non-profit organizations and other private entities to
identify sources of funding which may be available for affordable and supportive housing. For
identified federal, state and/or other private sources of funding which may not be available to the City,
other eligible agencies will be encouraged to apply. The City provides a variety of “incentives” to
encourage private, non-profit and/or for-profit housing developers to build housing units in Carlsbad
which are affordable to low and moderate income persons. The City will continue to offer these
“incentives” as well as with local private developers to identify and use all available financing resources
for the purposes of creating new affordable housing units.
To meet “matching funds” requirements of state and/or federal affordable and supportive housing
financing programs, the City will consider the use of redevelopment funds, “in-lieu” fees, private
contributions and/or general city funds. The various “matching fund” requirements will be identified
and considered on a case-by-case basis prior to submitting, or assisting with the submission of an
application, for any federal and/or state housing financing program. The City’s “underwriting” of
specific projects and proposals will be evaluated based on the need being served and the effectiveness
or “leveraging” in the use of City resources.
2. Network Building Activities
The City will continue to be engaged in network-building activities with governmental, for-profit and
non-profit organizations. This will include participation in the San Diego County Non-Profit Housing
and Community Development Federation.
33
CITY OF CARLSBAD
1999-2000 CONSOLIDATED FUNDING PLAN
The Fair Housing Resource Board (FHRB) has been expanded to include more local governmental
involvement with regional affordable housing, fair housing issues and advocacy, Carlsbad is a member
of the FHRB, which is recognized by HUD as a forum to facilitate fair housing in the San Diego area.
The City will continue to fund an agreement with Heartland Human Relations Association (HHRA) to
provide fair housing services which includes counseling, tenant/landlord mediation, education seminars, and to mitigate and/or prevent housing discrimination practices.
The City will also continue to be active participants in the North County Homeless Coalition. This
group meets monthly and provides a forum for discussion of current housing issues and other social
service activities.
In a cooperative effort, the City of Carlsbad will continue to meet with other San Diego County
jurisdictions to form a resource information group for such programs as the CDBG program,
Residential Rehabilitation programs, and the Regional MCC (First Time Homebuyer) program. The
City will also continue to encourage and participate in efforts to work collectively and cooperatively
with other San Diego County jurisdictions.
The Carlsbad City Council has adopted a Resolution declaring the City’s intention to participate with
other jurisdictions in the North San Diego County Coastal region to address the needs of homeless
persons and families on a region wide basis. North County jurisdictions and local social service
providers have been meeting and working cooperatively together to discuss the region wide approach
and various strategies to address the shelter and supportive service needs of the homeless.
F. Public Hoking Improvements
The City of Carlsbad does not own or operate public housing and, no public housing developments are
proposed for FY 1999.
G. Public Housing Resident Initiatives
The City of Carlsbad does not own or operate public housing and, no public housing developments are
proposed for FY 1999.
H. Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction
The activities and programs to evaluate and reduce lead based paint hazards, and the integration of
lead-based paint hazard reduction in housing policies and programs for the coming year are intended to
remain as described in the Five-Year Strategy.
These strategies include the following:
Strategy 1: Integrate lead hazard evaluation and reduction activities into all housing programs,
particularly residential rehabilitation programs.
Currently, many federal programs have requirements for evaluating and reducing lead hazards. For
those state and local housing and community development programs, the City will pursue the following
activities to evaluate and reduce lead hazards:
34 37
CITY OF CARLSBAD
1999-2000 CONSOLIDATED FUNDING PLAN
a. Require inspection for and abatement of lead based paint hazards as a requirement of all residential rehabilitation programs when children
under the age of seven reside in the dwelling unit and have been
identified with elevated blood levels;
b. Include lead based paint hazard abatement as an eligible activity under
the City’s residential rehabilitation programs and add minimum lead
based paint abatement requirements to housing quality standards which
must be met; and
C. Provide all eligible applicants of housing programs, particularly
residential rehabilitation programs, with information regarding lead
based paint.
Strategy 2: Support the development of comprehensive public health programs for the screening
of children for lead poisoning and a follow-up on those identified as lead poisoned.
In accordance with CDC guidelines, all children found to have elevated blood levels (above 20
micrograms per deciliter) should both be provided with public health management services and be
tested every three months. The County of San Diego’s Department of Health Services currently
provides this service. The City should encourage the abatement of lead based paint hazards once a
child under the age of seven is identified as having elevated blood levels. CDBG can be used to help
the City or other organizations in developing a comprehensive approach to lead poisoning prevention.
Strategy 3: Provide public information and education.
Public information campaigns can alert households residing in pre-1978 housing of the dangers of lead
poisoning, provide advice on the maintenance of the home, and suggest ways to reduce exposure to
lead based paint hazards. Information should also be provided to landlords and owners of property
with pre-1978 residential structures.
The following information should be provided to homeowners, renters, and landlords of pre-1978
housing:
A)
B)
c>
D)
E)
F)
That the property may contain lead-based paint;
The hazards of lead-based paint;
The symptoms and treatment of lead-based paint poisoning;
The precautions to be taken to avoid lead-based paint poisoning (including maintenance
and removal techniques for eliminating such hazards);
The advisability and availability of blood lead level screening for children under seven
years of age; and,
In the event lead-based paint is found in the property, appropriate abatement
procedures may be undertaken.
Strategy 4:
activities.
Seek public and private funding to finance lead hazard abatement and reduction
Significant lead hazard reduction and abatement can be costly and beyond the means of lower-income
homeowners and owners of lower-income rental properties. The City and other community
organizations should be encouraged to pursue public and private funding to finance lead abatement and
reduction activities. Lead reduction and abatement should be an eligible activity in the City’s
35
CITY OF CARLSBAD
1999-2000 CONSOLIDATED FUNDING PLAN
residential rehabilitation program. CDBG funds are available for lead abatement and reduction. Additional resources for lead hazards are listed in Appendix F of the 19952000 Consolidated Plan.
I. Coordination Efforts
The Carlsbad Housing Authority has made a commitment to work with other public and non-profit
agencies to provide needed services for low-income households.
As discussed in the City’s anti-poverty strategy, City staff encourage Section 8 certificate/voucher
recipients to participate in a Self-Sufficiency program. This Self-Sufficiency program involves
public/private cooperative efforts involving housing, education, employment and the supportive
services to help participating families to become upwardly mobile.
In an effort to increase housing opportunities throughout the City of Carlsbad, staff has enlisted the
cooperation of the real estate community, property managers and owners by conducting quarterly
workshops, mailing informative information regarding the Section 8 Rental Assistance program,
making rental advertisements available to Section 8 tenants, and through public media announcements.
To foster awareness and education of organizations providing housing assistance or other supportive
services to lower-income households and those in need, the City has a community resources phone
directory available at City facilities and through other organizations within Carlsbad that provide the
public with referrals to City facilities and services.
The City annually assists in the funding of Heartland Human Relations Association, in order to promote
Fair Housing. Heartland’s counselors provide information regarding the rights and responsibilities of
both tenants and landlords:, Heartland also provides community education via speakers and literature
and assistance to victims of housing discrimination. Periodically, Heartland Human Relations
Association conducts audits of real estate and rental practices throughout the County of San Diego to
determine the extent of discrimination in a given area. The City has completed it’s assessment of
impediments to fair housing choice within the community and is currently implementing
recommendations of this assessment of impediments to alleviate these barriers and to continue to
promote fair housing.
