ITEM EXPLANATION: The Housing & Neighborhood Services Department for the City of Carlsbad administers the federally funded Section 8 Rental Assistance Program for the Public Housing Agency (PHA). Pursuant to code of federal regulations (CFR) 24 Part 903, a Public Housing Authority is required to submit a 5-Year and Annual Plan to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The 5-Year and Annual PHA Plan provide a basic guide to Public Housing Agencies policies, rules, and requirements concerning the Public Housing Agency's operations, programs, and services. In addition, the Plan advises HUD and members of the community of the Public Housing Agency's mission and strategies for serving the needs of low-income and very low-income families for the next five years. The purpose of the 5-Year PHA Plan is to identify goals and objectives to serve the needs of low-income (under 80% of the area median income -AMI), very low-income (under 50% of the AMI), and extremely low-income (under 30% ofthe AMI )families for the next 5 years. The goals are: 1. Expand the supply of assisted housing; 2. Improve the quality of assisted housing; 3. Increase assisted housing choices; 4. Promote self-sufficiency and asset development of families and individuals; and S. Ensure equal opportunity and affirmatively further fair housing. In addition, as a High Performing Housing Agency, the only requirement for the PHA Annual Plan is to identify PHA Plan elements that have been revised since the last Annual Plan submission. The PHA Plan Update section addresses the following areas that have been revised: 2. Financial Resources; 3. Rent Determination, specifically Payment Standards; DEPARTMENT CONTACT: Bobbi Nunn 760-434-2816 bobbi.nunn@carlsbadca.gov FOR CITY CLERKS USE ONLY.

FISCAL IMPACT: The PHA Plan governs the federal funds allocated for administration of the Section 8 Rental Assistance Program. For calendar year 2015, the City of Carlsbad's funding allocation is $5,517,941 million for rental assistance payments and an estimated $470,165 for operating expenses. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, this action 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.

ITEM NOT ON AGENDA There were no items not on the agenda. NEW BUSINESS Debbie Fountain, Director of Housing & Neighborhood Services, introduced the new Housing Commission member, Alan Newman. Ms. Fountain introduced Bobbi Nunn, Housing Program Manager. Ms. Nunn gave the presentation for the Carlsbad Public Housing Agency Five Year and Annual Plan. Commissioner Kirk asked with regards to CMH testing, what are the requirements? Ms. Nunn said it is determined by the consultant. We will get that information and forward it on to you. Commissioner Kirk asked if they are testing more than one site. Ms. Fountain said they ask certain legal questions of potential tenants. They are testing for the whole complex. Commissioner Kirk asked with regard to disabilities and racial sensitivity, how do they test for all of that? l HOUSING COMMISSION MINUTES March 12, 2015 PAGE 2 of 5 Ms. Fountain answered that staff will find out the methodology. It is the county-wide impediment to fair housing that is put together. We hire a contractor to do the testing as well. Ms. Nunn commented that the Fair Housing Council in San Diego does have shoppers that have gone out to test racial differences as well as handicap accessibility. We are not sure ifthis is how CMH is conducting their testing. Commissioner Kirk added that if it is a blind test, then they should have at least three or four people to test it. Commissioner Newman asked which rental sites are involved in affordable housing. Ms. Fountain answered all in general. Commissioner Newman asked if large apartment complexes have a need for affordable housing. Ms. Fountain said not all of the apartment complexes if they are older. Newer complexes do have a portion of their buildings as affordable housing. Commissioner Newman asked if that portion also has to be maintained. Ms. Fountain said they do if they have a requirement. Ms. Nunn added that they also have to provide compliance reports. Commissioner lgoe also said if they receive credits or funding through the city, they are required to maintain the property as affordable. Ms. Fountain commented our requirement is 15% of the development. Some apartment complexes have no restrictions. Some are more affordable market rate housing such as Jefferson Housing I and II. Chairperson Smith asked how they estimate for fair housing testing. Ms. Fountain said we will find out the methodology. I imagine it is random. Commissioner Kirk asked if we would have access to fair housing complaints. Ms. Fountain said that is why we have a contract. We would generally refer them to the appropriate agency. We do not provide legal opinions. We contract for this expertise. Commissioner Kirk asked if there is a particular complex that has complaints, would the contractor test that as well. Ms. Fountain said it is our understanding the contractor will do the testing. Commissioner Kirk asked if they received CDBG funding. HOUSING COMMISSION MINUTES March 12, 2015 PAGE 3 of 5 Ms. Fountain answered yes. We do Fair Housing Workshops and we do invite the apartment owners to attend them. Commissioner Kirk commented on the order of bullets on Page 3, operations and maintenance is number 4, then it goes to number 11, the fiscal year audit. Ms. Nunn said we only need to address the items that were changed for the plan. We only had the four items that were changed as noted, and that is why it is not in numerical order. Commissioner Kirk added that he just wanted to make sure we weren't missing anything. Commissioner lgoe congratulated staff on receiving High Performer seven years in a row. Ms. Nunn said it is a team effort. Commissioner lgoe asked Ms. Fountain if she could give the Housing Commission an update on Carol and Harding affordable development. Ms. Fountain said the developer for Carol and Harding project is out of Irvine and has joined with Innovative Housing Opportunities. Both companies are now trying to expand. This development was initially purchased with city money, about 7.5 million, for 44 units, 22 duplexes. Part of the agreement with the city was to purchase the remaining duplexes and eventually do a larger project. They are moving forward with the preliminary application for the new apartment project on that site. They will demolish all of the existing duplexes and build a three-story apartment complex. They will move forward with 1, 2 and 3 bedroom family oriented units, which are across from Jefferson School. The first 22 duplexes were all owned by the same owner, which is unusual. The developer purchased them with city financial assistance, but the remaining 5 are individual owners. We are also waiting on another item. The city gave the developer 18 months to finish acquisition, and the city needed to complete processing of the density increases in the barrio to allow this project. The city has had to wait for the Coastal Commission approval so they do not have to request a density increase or a density bonus. They are mostly doing site planning right now. Once we receive something formal from the developer, we will show you. Commissioner Newman asked if you have 525 people on a waiting list since 2005, where are they living now. Ms. Nunn said a lot of times they are doubling up by living with their parents or making it work one way or another. Some people work in Carlsbad but live elsewhere. Some people are renting a room from someone. Commissioner Newman asked if we regularly update to see if people are still interested. Ms. Nunn answered we did a major purge of our waiting list two or three years ago. We sent out inquiries to all the people on our waiting list, which eliminated quite a few. Some people do not work or live in Carlsbad so they are further down on the list. Carlsbad is the only housing agency in San Diego County that has a closed waiting list. We do accept other housing agency's applications, but only if they applied prior to October 1, 2005. HOUSING COMMISSION MINUTES March 12, 2015 PAGE 4 of 5 Commissioner Newman asked if the duplexes are demolished, where will the people go. Ms. Fountain said the developer will need to pay for relocation expenses, and this is considered in the development budget. Commissioner Newman asked if it is covered by the city or the project. Ms. Fountain said it is covered by the project cost. They will offer the eligible residents to move back in, but they will have to pay the relocation expenses regardless. We have had other projects where we have given enough funding to the residents that they are able to use it as a down payment to purchase a property, which is a nice outcome. When the city purchased Tyler Court, we did not require anyone to move as we were able to move people in through attrition. Ms. Nunn added that by purchasing the Harding property, they increased the value ofthe area. There are a couple of Section 8 clients there and when I have done inspections, I have noticed upgrades such as crown molding, painting and new stucco on the outside. The new apartment complex will be required to accept Section 8 participants as part of their regulatory agreement. Commissioner lgoe asked if there will be an on-site manager. Ms. Fountain said yes. They had an absentee owner previously, which was not ideal. That was an area that had a high level of criminal activity. The City Council has been supportive of affordable housing and cleaning up a blighted area of old units such as this. An on-site manager is a requirement. Chairperson Smith asked ifthere is a projected date for opening the waiting list for the Section 8 program. Ms. Nunn said it will probably be within a year. We are getting ready to pull names off the waiting list. Once we reach the point that we have only people on the list who do not work or live in Carlsbad, then we will open the list. Norwalk is about the same size of a city as us and they had 70,000 applications when they opened. We will need to do a public notice and send information to the senior centers and complexes as well as get it out to the media. All applicants will be ranked according to preferences; veterans, people who live or work in Carlsbad, people who are extremely low income (under 30%). Currently we do not have the staffing to maintain a large waiting list. Commissioner Kirk made a motion to approve the resolution of the Housing Commission of the City of Carlsbad, California, recommending approval of the Carlsbad Five-Year and Annual Public Housing Agency (PHA) Plan for fiscal year 2015 and authorizing staff to submit to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Commissioner lgoe seconded. VOTE: 4-0 AYES: NOES: ABSTAIN: ABSENT: lgoe, Kirk, Newman and Smith None None Bradwell IO HOUSING COMMISSION MINUTES March 12, 2015 PAGE 5 of 5 DIRECTOR'S REPORT-Ms. Fountain said she has a couple of things to share. We are currently working on performance measures for affordable housing. If you can think of something you would like to see in the statistics, please let us know. We hope to put this on a future agenda. We are reviewing other cities and what they are doing. If you feel there is something important that we could start measuring such as job housing balance or number of low income jobs and the housing they can afford, then we would like to discuss that. We do have demographics from the census of how many people are at certain income levels, which will help in these measurements. Commissioner Kirk volunteered his expertise. Ms. Fountain offered for anyone else on the Commission who is interested to email her. Commissioner Newman asked if the City of Carlsbad imposes minimum sizes for living units. Ms. Fountain answered the city does not have that in its development standards. Minimum size for a bedroom tends to be 400 square feet based on a city policy. We also have a new tool on our website identifying where our affordable housing is. It is on a map and when you click on the location, a picture comes up with a description of the complex. The last thing, the City of Carlsbad is hosting a conference, Carlsbad Love lt. It is a free event, but you must register for the event. There will be a lot of great sessions and our theme is about healthy living. We will have workshops and a keynote speaker as well as interactive activities and we have daycare for children. Please register if you wish to attend or call our office.

II. BACKGROUND Housing & Neighborhood Services administers the federally funded Section 8 Rental Assistance Program for the Public Housing Authority in Carlsbad, which is more specifically known as the Carlsbad Housing Agency. Pursuant to code of federal regulations {CFR) 24 Part 903, a Public Housing Authority {PHA) is required to submit a 5-Year and Annual Plan. The 5-Year and Annual PHA Plan provide a basic guide to PHA policies, rules, and requirements concerning the PHA's operations, programs, and services. In addition, the Plan advises HUD and members of the public the PHA's mission and strategies for serving the needs of low-income and very low-income families for the next five years. III. DISCUSSION The Draft PHA 5-Year and Annual Plan are available for public review and comment prior to the Public Hearing and adoption by the Community Development Commission. The public review period will end on April 7, 2015, and the Public Hearing is tentatively scheduled for April 7, 2015. All public comments received on the draft PHA 5-Year and Annual Plan will be addressed and included in the final documents that will be submitted to HUD. The purpose of the 5-Year PHA Plan is to identify goals and objectives to serve the needs of low-income (under 80% of the area median income-AMI), very low-income (under 50% of the AMI), and extremely low-income (under 30% of the AMI) families for the next 5 years. ' ' ! l) 1 CARLSBAD PUBLIC HOUSING AGENCY 5-YEAR AND ANNUAL PLAN March 12, 2015 Page 2 The goals are: 1. Expand the supply of assisted housing; 2. Improve the quality of assisted housing; 3. Increase assisted housing choices; 4. Promote self-sufficiency and asset development of families and individuals; and 5. Ensure equal opportunity and affirmatively further fair housing. In addition, the PHA needs to indicate the progress in meeting the goals and objectives identified in the last 5-Year PHA Plan that was adopted on April13, 2010. Further, the PHA is required to identify any PHA Plan elements that have been revised since the last Annual Plan submission. The following areas are addressed in the PHA Plan Update segment: • Financial Resources; • Rent Determination, specifically Payment Standards; • Operation and Management, specifically the Integrated Pest Management (I PM) Policy; and the • Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013 (VAWA 2013). Once the Plan is approved, the following documents are required to be submitted with the PHA Plan template (form HUD 50075): • Form HUD-50077, PHA Certifications of Compliance with the PHA Plans and Related Regulations (which includes all certifications relating to Civil Rights); and • Resident Advisory Board (RAB) comments and a narrative describing the analysis of any recommendations and decisions made regarding the recommendations. IV. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Housing Commission adopt Resolution No. 2015-001, recommending that the Community Development Commission approve the 5-Year and Annual PHA Plan for Fiscal Year 2015 for submission to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

After exiting the unit, PHA staff will explain the bed bug policy to the family and advise them if they have any questions to contact the Housing Program Manager. 2. The policy listed above under "When bed bugs are reported" will be followed. 3. Once the PHA has received confirmation from a licensed pest control company that the bed bugs have been eliminated, the inspection will be rescheduled. 4.
