Subject: Fiscal Year 2019-2020 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Action Plan
Recommended Action
Hold a Public Hearing and adopt a Resolution approving and authorizing the submission of the
FY 2019-2020 Action Plan for Community Development Block Grant {CDBG) Funding to the United
States Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Executive Summary
Under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, the City of Carlsbad
continues to be eligible to receive funding under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) CDBG program to finance programs that serve the needs of lower income
persons.
In identifying the needs of lower income persons, federal regulations require that the City Council
hold at least two public hearings to obtain the views of citizens on Carlsbad's housing and
community development needs. An initial public hearing to invite comments on the city's CBDG
Program Funding Plan was held in Nov. 27, 2018, this second public hearing will provide another
opportunity to obtain comments on the city's housing and community development needs and
obtain comments on the FY 2019-2020 Action Plan and funding recommendations of the CDBG
Citizens Advisory Committee. All firial comments provided to the City Council at this second
public hearing will be included in the final FY 2019-2020 Action Plan that is submitted to HUD.
Federal regulations require the City Council to approve the FY 2019-2020 Action Plan following
the public hearing to obtain comments and recommendations on CDBG funding. Upon City
Council approval, the Action Plan will be submitted to HUD for final review and approval.
Discussion
The primary objective of the CDBG program is to assist lower income persons in the community.
Each proposed project or activity must meet at least one of the national objectives for the CDBG
program and at least one of the local housing and community development objectives. These
national and local objectives are outlined in the CDBG Program Funding Plan {Attached as Exhibit
3). These objectives reflect the city's desire to develop a program which best meets the various
May 14, 2019 Item #7 Page 1 of 56
needs of lower income Carlsbad residents; this program year the City Council decided to place a
priority on programs that provide assistance to the city's homeless residents.
The city received ten proposals for use of CDBG funds in response to a Request for Proposals
distributed on Nov. 28, 2018. The CDBG Advisory Committee evaluated the proposals and
interviewed applicants prior to developing the funding recommendations which are further
described below.
The following breakdown for project funding is proposed based on current estimates:
• FY 2019-2020 Entitlement Grant
o Public service (maximum of 15 percent)
o Public facilities, improvements
o Affordable housing
o Program administration/fair housing (maximum of 20 percent)
$565,819
$84,872
$183,892
$183,892
$113,163
For public services, the CDBG Advisory Committee recommends that approximately $84,872, as
permitted by federal regulations, be allocated to six organizations. For public facility
improvement funds ($183,892}, the Committee recommends that $95,000 be allocated to Casa
De Amparo. The Committee recommends that $271,950 in funds ($88,058 in general public
facilities, improvements dollars plus $183,892 in affordable housing set-aside funds) available for·
housing be allocated to the city's CDBG Housing Reserve Fund for the purchase of existing
affordable units as they become available in existing developments and other property
acquisitions for low income affordable housing purposes (such as vacant land for new
construction, existing rental units with rehabilitation efforts, market rate condominiums and
resales, and/or partnerships with an affordable housing developer for property acquisition).
Finally, per the federal guidelines, a maximum of 20 percent of the funding ($113,163) allocation
is recommended for CDBG program administration, including $22,750 for a contract with the
Legal Aid Society of San Diego to assist Carlsbad residents with fair housing counseling/testing
services as required by HUD. The CDBG Advisory Committee Funding Recommendations are
summarized in Exhibit 2 to this report.
Fiscal Analysis
It is anticipated that the city will receive $565,819 in new CDBG entitlement funds during FY 2019-
2020. Federal regulations allow the City to use a maximum of 20 percent ($113,163) of the new
allocation for administration costs and for fair housing counseling/testing services. The balance
of funds will be granted to the organizations set forth in the Action Plan and as approved by the
City Council. CDBG is a fully funded program and there is no fiscal impact on the city's General
Fund.
Next Steps
Staff will submit Carlsbad's FY 2019-2020 Action Plan to HUD via the County of San Diego, the
lead agency for San Diego County federal CDBG and HOME funds, and proceed with
administration of the funding program per the federal regulations.
May 14, 2019 Item #7 Page 2 of 56
Environmental Evaluation (CEQA)
Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, approval of CDBG funding recommendations
and accepting public comment, does not constitute a "project" within the meaning of CEQA in
that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a
reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and therefore does not
require environmental review.
Public Notification and Outreach
The FY 2019-2020 CDBG Action Plan requires a public review period of 30 days prior to the
Public Hearing before the City Council. The public review period notice was published in the
newspaper on April 15, 2019 and the Action Plan was available for review and comments for 30
days ending on the date of the public hearing on May 14, 2019. The CDBG Action Plan for FY
2019-2020 was made available for review on the city's website, as well as hard copies were
available in the office of Housing and Neighborhood Services at 1200 Carlsbad Village Drive.
The public review period will end May 14, 2019 with a public hearing before City Council. Public
comments from the public review period and the public hearing will be addressed through
written response and included in the final FY 2019-2020 Action Plan as part of the citizen
participation section of the plan.
Per the city's Citizen Participation Plan for the CDBG Program, two public hearings are to be
held to obtain public input on the needs of low income households. One of those public
hearings was held on Nov. 27, 2018 and the second is scheduled for May 14, 2019. In addition,
two noticed public meetings were held in April 2019 before the Ad Hoc CDBG Citizen Advisory
Committee to receive input from applicants for the CDBG funding and any other interested
person.
Information regarding public notifications are available in the Office of the City Clerk.

Executive Summary
AP-OS Executive Summary -91. 200{c), 91.220{b)
1. Introduction
Carlsbad occupies approximately 39 square miles of rolling hills, beaches and bluffs along the northern
coast of San Diego County. The city is located about 30 miles north of San Diego and about 90 miles
south of Los Angeles. In addition to the Pacific Ocean coast line along its western boundary, the
communities surrounding Carlsbad include the city of Oceanside to the north, the city of Encinitas to the
south, and the cities of Vista and San Marcos and unincorporated areas of San Diego County to the east.
This Action Plan outlines Carlsbad's planned uses of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds
for Fiscal Year (FY) 2019-2020. The Action Plan describes the following: resources available, activities to
be undertaken during FY 2019-2020 and their relation to the five-year strategic plan, other actions to
address affordable housing, homelessness, and other special needs, as well as provides Carlsbad's
Monitoring Plan.

The City of Carlsbad has a range of housing and community development needs. CDBG funds alone are
not adequate to address the various needs identified during the public outreach process and
summarized in the Needs Assessment of Carlsbad's Consolidated Plan (CP) FY 2015-2019. Recognizing
the national objectives of these funding programs and specific program regulations, the city intends to
use these funds to coordinate programs, services, and projects to create a decent and suitable living
environment to benefit low-and moderate-income households and those with special needs. Needs
which have been determined to be a High Priority level will be receiving funding during this AP. Needs
with a Low Priority may be funded based on the availability of funds. The priorities for the FY2015-2019
CP established in consultation with residents and community groups are:
High Priority:
Increase the supply of affordable housing units
Provide supportive services for the homelessness, lower-income residents, and persons with
special needs
Improve and provide facilities to serve lower incdme persons
Provide fair housing services to residents
Planning and administration
Low Priority:
Conserve and rehabilitate the existing housing stock
The priorities identified above specifically address the use of CDBG funds. The city no longer receives its
specific allocation of HOME funds from the County of San Diego. The city facilitates the development of
new affordable housing primarily through its lnclusionary Housing Program, which is locally funded, and
its' Housing Reserve Fund. The Carlsbad Housing Agency also administers the Housing Choice Voucher
(HCV) Program for low income tenants.
3. Evaluation of past performance
This is an evaluation of past performance that helped lead the grantee to choose its goals or
projects.
In the past, as a participant of the County's HOME Consortium, the City of Carlsbad would receive a
small allocation of HOME funds for the city's affordable housing activities. However, since 2014, the
significant reductions in HOME funds necessitated the County to restructure its HOME program to more
efficiently expend the limited funds. The city no longer receives its specific allocation of HOME funds

from the County. City residents will continue to be eligible to apply for the HOME funded Down payment
and Closing Costs program via a new program that began in September of 2014 through a partnership
between County of San Diego and the San Diego County Housing Commission.
In years past, the city utilized HOME and other funding to assist in the development of affordable
housing. The city provided a total of $3,750,000 in the form of residual receipts loans from the Carlsbad
Redevelopment Agency's Low and Moderate-Income Housing Set-Aside Fund. In 2009, the city assisted
San Diego Habitat for Humanity with the development of six condominium units (Roosevelt Garden) for
lower-income families. The city also provided financial assistance to Meta Housing Corporation for the
Tavarua Senior Apartments, a 50-unit apartment community completed in 2013. Ten of the 50 units are
designated for qualifying older adults with mental illness eligible for supportive services under the
Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) program. This program is part of a larger regional supportive housing
initiative by the County of San Diego's Behavioral Health Services Division (BHS) to link homeless or at
risk of homelessness individuals with mental illness to permanent housing and social services.
The city also provided HOME funds in 2012 to Solutions for Change to assist in the acquisition of Vista
Terrace Apartments in the City of Vista to serve as a regional resource for homeless families with
children from the region who are graduating from their program which helps the families become stable
members of the community and provide them with homes. One unit in Vista Terrace was converted to a
community room for residents of the apartments. In 2014, the city provided an additional $454,000 to
Solutions for Change in order to assist the agency with the acquisition of a 16-unit apartment complex to
be used for graduates of the Solutions University for homeless families.
During the previous Consolidated Plan period, the city assisted over 9,000 homeless persons or persons
at -risk of homelessness (duplicated counts) with temporary shelter and supportive services. An
additional 3,600 lower-income persons or persons with special needs were assisted through a variety of
public service programs, including the North County Health Services Immunization and Health Screening
Program, after school programs, and meal or food delivery programs.
In addition, a total of six projects to improve community facilities have been completed since 2010,
including the Casa de Amparo Twin Oaks facility, Catholic Charities La Posada de Guadalupe Men's
Shelter, North County Health Services Health Care Center, and Hospice of the North Coast Hospice
House. In 2016, the city partnered with Interfaith Community Services to acquire vacant commercial
property which now serves as the Carlsbad Service Center. This Service Center is in the heart of the city
and is easily accessible to all residents. Services such as case management, job training, employment
skills, job placement, emergency food distribution, and ESL classes are just some of the services
available.

1. Introduction
As part of the development of this AP, the City conducted an outreach program to consult and coordinate nonprofit agencies, affordable housing
providers, and government agencies regarding the needs of the low-and moderate-income community. The outreach program has been
summarized in the Executive Summary and Citizen Participation sections of this AP.
Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction's activities to enhance coordination between public and assisted housing providers
and private and governmental health, mental health and service agencies {91.215(1 )).
The City of Carlsbad serves as the city's public housing agency whereby the Section 8 Rental Assistance Program is implemented and
administered daily. The city actively participates in a variety of coalitions made up of affordable housing and community development
coordinators from all 18 incorporated cities and various nonprofit organizations in the San Diego region: These strong partnerships result in
coordination of activities, sharing of information, and joint operation of specific HUD programs. These coal it ions include: CDBG Coordinators
Group; County of San Diego HOME Consortium; Regional Continuum of Care Council; California Finance Officers' Group; California Association of
Housing Authorities; National Association of Housing Redevelopment Officials; Housing Authorities within the County of San Diego; participating
cities in the First-Time Homebuyer Program; and notably, the city engages and contributes as a member of the San Diego Regional Alliance for
Fair Housing (www.sdfairhousing.org). Also included is the San Diego Housing Federation, made up of affordable housing organizations and
lenders that sponsor programs and activities in partnership with the County of San Diego and cities in the region.
Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically
homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of
homelessness.

The City of Carlsbad isan activememberoftheSan Diego Regional Continuum of Care Council (RCCC) which isa large cooperative community
group consisting of representatives of the 18 cities within the County of San Diego, nonprofit homeless providers and other interested parties.
The RCCC regularly meets to identify gaps in homeless services, establish funding priorities, and to pursue an overall systemic approach to
addressing homelessness. The RCCC makes recommendations for allocation offundsavailable under the Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG)
program. The representatives seek ways to improve collaboration and share scarce resources. The consensus approach from service providers is
to emphasize prevention of homelessness first, then transitional housing and support services for individuals and families, and finally support for
chronically homeless individuals. Facilities in proximity to Carlsbad serving this population include the Brother Benno Foundation providing
transitional housing for men in recovery from substance abuse, the Women's Resource Center which provides emergency safe shelter for
victims of domestic violence, Catholic Charities' La Posada de Guadalupe men's shelter which targets homeless men , Community Resource
Center which provides emergency safe shelter for victims of domestic violence, and Casa de Amparo which provides targeted support for
children and youth who have been removed from their homes by Child Protective Services.
During 2015, the city actively participated alongside both nonprofit and for-profit agencies in the 25 Cities Effort which was a key federal strategy
initiative aimed to end veteran homelessness. Since the adoption of the 2017-2018 AP, the 25 Cities Effort has come to a sunset and the San
Diego region is collectively working on a plan to end homelessness which is spearheaded by the Regional Task Force on the Homeless. In
·November of 2017, the Carlsbad City Council approved a local Homeless Response Plan which serves as a principal planning guide for our city's
collaborative efforts. Near term goals are to hire two (2) Licensed Clinical Social Workers to help provide daily case management to our homeless
community and later adopt a more robust budget to provide the necessary foundation for this community need.
Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds,
develop performance standards for and evaluate outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding,
policies and procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS
The City of Carlsbad does not receive ESG (Emergency Shelter Grant) funds from HUD.
The Regional Continuum of Care Consortium (RCCC) coordinates efforts to address homeless in the San Diego region and is the HUD
designated Continuum of Care (CoC) for the region. The RCCC manages the application for, receipt and distribution of federal and
other grant funds, including the Homeless Super NOFA (Notice of Funding Availability).

The _Regional Task Force on the Homeless (RTFH) was selected by the RCCC to manage the region's homeless management information
system (HMIS). This system coordinates the region's AHAR efforts and is working to combine data from multiple consortium area
systems into one data warehouse. The HMIS produces quarterly and annual reports that assist in monitoring key indicators to assess needs
and progress on strategic goals pertaining to homelessness. In 2010, a Data Advisory Committee was created to provide
community-based oversight, system evaluation, and comprehensive HMIS planning.
Carlsbad does not receive any dedicated homeless assistance funding as a result of the Super NOFA or the RCCC activities. However, annually
. the city uses a portion of its CDBG Public Service Dollars to assist agencies that serve the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless.

Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal-setting
Citizen participation is one of the most important components of the CP process. To solicit public input during the development of
this CP, the City of Carlsbad held a Community Workshop for residents, local housing and services providers, as well as community
stakeholders. A Housing and Community Development Needs Survey was also administered, in both English and Spanish, to
members of the community. For this survey, residents could access the survey via the city's website (www.carlsbadca.gov), paper
copies of the survey were also made available at the Carlsbad Senior Center (799 Pine Avenue, Carlsbad, CA 92008), also press
releases and social media (Facebook, Twitter, NextDoor) were utilized to request community feedback. A total of 162 responses
were received. A Public Hearing before the City Council was also held on April 7, 2015. A public notice for the hearing was published
on April 3, 2015. A second Public Hearing was held for the adoption of the Consolidated Plan on May 5, 2015. A 30-day public
review of the CP was held from April 4, 2015 through May 4, 2015. A public notice for the hearing and public review period was
published on April 4, 2015. The final CP, amendments, Annual Action Plans and performance reports will be available for five years
at Carlsbad City Hall.

The City of Carlsbad worked towards meeting its affordable housing objectives by allocating CDBG funds in previous years to
Solutions for Change for the planned acquisition of a 16-unit apartment complex in Carlsbad for graduates of the Solutions
University for homeless families. Prior year CDBG funds were also used to assist in the acquisition of a health care center in the City
that continues to provide services to low -income residents. No other publicly owned land or property is anticipated to be used to
address needs identified in this plan.
Discussion
The Carlsbad Housing Agency administers the Section 8 Rental Assistance program for Carlsbad residents. For calendar year (CY)
2016, the City of Carlsbad's allocation was $5,545,117 for rental assistance payments and $588,690 for operating expenses. HUD is
currently operating under a Continuing Resolution. Since January 2017, the Carlsbad Housing Agency has received 94 percent of CY
2016 housing assistance payments funding and 77 percent of administrative allocation. Once the CY 2018 Appropriations Act is
approved, HUD will notify the housing agencies within 60 days what the final funding appropriations will be before CY 2018. The
program provides rent subsidy payments for very low-income households in privately owned rental housing units. Each month, 600
families are assisted with Section 8 Rental Assistancefunds.

The City of Carlsbad is limited in its ability to meet all of the housing needs of lower income households.
However, a sincere effort will be made to combine various city resources to meet as much of the need as
financially feasible within the Action Plan time period, as well as the overall needs identified in the FY
2015-19 Consolidated Plan.

thereby reducing the impact of housing on any one area. City staff will be responsible for initiating or facilitating the development 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, construct ion, or
improvements to public services or facilities to meet the community development needs will also be distributed throughout the city. Carlsbad

AP-75 Action Plan Barrier to Affordable Housing-91.420, 91.2200)
Introduction
The City of Carlsbad works to remove barriers to affordable housing and the financial impacts of efforts
to protect public health and safety by taking actions to reduce the costs or provide financial incentives
to assist in the production of safe, high quality, affordable housing.
Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers
to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building
codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment.
The City of Carlsbad works diligently to remove barriers to affordable housing and the financial impacts
of efforts to protect public health and safety by taking actions to reduce the costs or provide off-setting
financial incentives to assist in the production of safe, high quality, affordable housing. The following
measures may be taken to alleviate the barriers to affordable housing:
Apply for State and federal funding to provide gap financing for affordable housing production
and rehabilitation of existing affordable housing stock.
Continue to support applications for Tax Exempt Bond financing from the California Debt Limit
Allocation Committee.
Continue to support applications for Low-Income Housing Tax Credits from the California Tax
Credit Allocation Committee.
Continue to stream line the environmental review process for housing developments, using
available state categorical exemptions and federal categorical exclusions, when applicable. Also,
send staff to CEQA and NEPA trainings as needed to gain expertise in the preparation of
environmental review documents.
Continue to improve the permit processing and planning approval processes to minimize delay
in housing development in general and in particular affordable housing development.
Continue providing rehabilitation assistance and homeownership assistance, and to assist in the
construction and preservation of affordable housing.
Encourage public participation when a proposed project is being considered for approval.
Implement policies and strategies identified in Carlsbad's 2013-2021 HousingElement.
Housing affordability is affected by numerous factors in both the private and public sectors. With the
dissolution of redevelopment in California, the City of Carlsbad has lost its most powerful tool and
funding mechanism to provide affordable housing in the community. Funding at the State and Federal
levels has also continued to experience significant cuts. With reduced funding and increased housing
costs, the city faces significant challenges in providing affordable and decent housing opportunities for
its lower and moderate-income residents, especially with extremely low incomes. Actions by the city can
have a significant impact on the price and availability of housing in Carlsbad. Lack of affordable housing

funds, land use controls, site improvement requirements, building codes, fees, and other local programs
intended to improve the overall quality of housing may serve as a constraint to affordable housing
development. These governmental constraints can limit the operations of the public, private, and
nonprofit sectors, making it challenging to meet the demand for affordable housing and ever decreasing
supply in the region.

High Priority
Increase the Supply of Affordable Housing Units
Provide Supportive Services for the Homeless, Lower-Income Residents, and Persons with
Special Needs
Improve and Provide Facilities to Serve Lower-Income Persons
Provide Fair Housing Services to Residents
Planning and Administration
Low Priority
Conserve and Rehabilitate the Existing Housing Stock
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs
limited financial resources are the biggest obstacle to meeting underserved needs in Carlsbad. The city's
policy is to leverage, to the maximum extent feasible, the use of funds available in providing public
services and affordable housing. The city supports the use of CDBG and Housing Trust funds for
development activities and "gap financing" by private and non -pro fit entities in their efforts to develop
affordable housing.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing
In order to foster and maintain affordable housing for lower income households, the city will use CDBG
funds to assist with the development of affordable multi-family housing. The city also fosters
development of affordable housing through implementation of its lnclusionary Housing Ordinance,
which requires that 15 percent of all housing units constructed in city be affordable to lower and
moderate-income households. For projects proposing seven units or less, a fee is collected and
deposited into the city's Housing Trust Fund to be used to foster and maintain affordable housing.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
The Residential Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 (Title X) emphasizes prevention of
childhood lead poisoning through housing-based approaches. This strategy requires jurisdictions to
focus on implementing practical changes in older housing to protect children from lead hazards. The city
Annual Action Plan
2019
38
May 14, 2019 Item #7 Page 45 of 56
has identified two primary strategies to reduce lead-based paint hazards in Carlsbad to be carried out
during the FY 2015-2019 CP period.
Strategy I: Integrate lead hazard evaluation and reduction activities into all housing 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:
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;
Include lead-based paint hazard abatement as an eligible activity for funding under the city's
CDBG program and include minimum lead-based paint abatement requirements to housing
quality standards which must be met; and
Provide all eligible applicants of housing programs, with information regarding lead-based
paint.
Strategy 2: Support the development of comprehensive health programs for the screening of children for
lead Poisoning and a follow-up on those identified as lead poisoned. In accordance with Center for
Disease Control (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 encourages the abatement of lead-based paint hazards once a child under the age of seven is
identified as having elevated blood levels. CDBG funds may be used to help the city or other
organizations in developing a comprehensive approach to lead-poisoning prevention.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families
The city currently has various programs and policies in place to help reduce the number of households
with incomes below the poverty line. These policies and programs aim to improve coordination and
collaboration among city departments; and nonprofit agencies which provide health and social services,
employment training, legal assistance, and other support services for low income persons. The city will
pursue the following programs during FY 2019-20 to reduce poverty in Carlsbad:
1. lnclusionary Housing Ordinance
2. Housing Reserve Fund
3. Affordable Housing TrustFund
4. Section 8 Vouchers
5. Village Revitalization Partnership Program
6. Economic Development Strategic Plan
Annual Action Plan
2019

May 14, 2019 Item #7 Page 46 of 56
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
There are many organizations within the County of San Diego that provide housing or supportive
services to Carlsbad residents. These agencies tend to be smaller organizations with many using
volunteers. The city will continue to encourage greater efforts to make use of available housing, social
service and mental and other health care resources. The city can also help strengthen the housing and
service delivery system by helping to educate such organizations and agencies regarding the resources
that are available.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
service agencies
The city proposes to strengthen, coordinate and integrate the governmental institution, non-profit and
private delivery systems discussed in the FY 2015-19 CP and FY 2019-2020 Action Plan through on-going
"strategy ·and development" meetings between city staff, private developers, non-profit organizations and
various financial institutions. Through these meetings, the city will continue to identify the constraints to
affordable housing and develop/implement programs to mitigate them. The key to successful
development of affordable housing for lower-income households in Carlsbad is communication, flexibility,
and adequate funding. The city will communicate openly with private developers and service providers as
well as make every effort to maintain the flexibility in policies and/or ordinances necessary to create
public/private housing development partnerships.
