FY 2019-20 Annual Action Plan Amendment No. 2, Appropriation of
Community Development Block Grant Funds, Authorization to Submit the
Amended FY 2019-20 Annual Action Plan to the·U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development and Approval of the Amended Citizen
Participation Plan
Recommended Action
That the City Council hold a public hearing and adopt a resolution to 1) approve the FY 2019-20
Annual Action Plan Amendment No. 2, including the appropriation of Community Development
Block Grant funds in the amount of $175,348 for the expansion of La Posada de Guadalupe and
to the current FY 2019-20 CDBG public service providers for COVID-19 relief assistance
2) authorize submittal of the amended FY 2019-20 Annual Action Plan to the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development and 3) approve the Amended Citizen Participation Plan.
Executive Summary
An amendment to the Annual Action Plan for fiscal year 2019-20 is necessary due to the
proposed appropriation of Community Development Block Grant funds in the amount of
$58,000 to assist in the expansion of the La Posada de Guadalupe Homeless Facility at 24 76
Impala Drive in Carlsbad. Additionally, staff recommends appropriation of CDBG funds in the
amount of $117,348 to augment current public service providers' funding agreements to
provide additional aid to the most vulnerable and low-income residents affected by COVID-19
through rental assistance, food service, shelter and other basic needs.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, known as the CARES Act, permits the
Department of Housing and Urban Development to waive various regulations in connection
with CARES Act funding, as well as CDBG funds for fiscal years 2019-20 and 2020-21.. To
distribute aid quickly, HUD waivers allow grantees to establish expedited procedures to amend
their funding plans and remove spending caps for public services. To accomplish this, the City
Council must formally approve a substantial amendment to the FY 2019-20 Annual Action Plan
(Exhibit lA) and amend the CDBG Citizen Participation Plan (Exhibit 1B).
These recommendations represent the first of a three-part approach to boost CDBG funding in
response to COVID-19. The second part is to conduct a needs assessment to guide
May 5, 2020 Item #6 Page 2 of 118
recommended use of the anticipated $315,666 CDBG-CV funding. The third is to present the FY
2020-21 Annual Action Plan with supplemental funding recommendations permitted by CARES
Act waivers and flexibilities. Staff will present these additional recommendations to the City
Council in June.
Discussion
Background
The CARES Act, signed into law on March 27, 2020, included additional CDBG funds to help
communities across the United States mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. These
funds are awarded based on existing grant formulas and come with new guidance intended to
allow quick action to help low-income and vulnerable citizens impacted by COVID-19. The city
anticipates receiving $315,666 in CDBG-CV funding.
The CARES Act provides flexibilities for CDBG grantees to make it easier to use CARES Act
funding and CDBG grants for fiscal years 2019-20 and 2020-21 for pandemic response efforts.
Notably, these flexibilities are the immediate availability of a five-day public !:Omment period -
reduced from 30 days -for amendments and new plan submissions, as well as removal of the
15 percent CDBG public services funding cap to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the
coronavirus pandemic. HUD has advised grantees to amend or prepare their plans as soon as
possible, which led staff to make this recommendation to the City Council to provide additional
assistance to Carlsbad residents. Amending the FY 2019-20 Annual Action Plan will provide
additional funding to the city's current public service providers to augment their services
related to rental assistance, food service, shelter and basic needs.
Annual Action Plan amendment
HUD requires the preparation of an Annual Action Plan to describe how federal funds will be
used to benefit low income households. On May 14, 2019, the City Council approved the FY
2019-20 Action Plan. Facility improvements and supportive services within the FY 2019-20
Action Plan meet the national objective of providing direct benefit to people with low to
moderate incomes.
During a given program year, additional funds may become available when program income is
received, for example, from loan interest repayments; projects are completed below budget or
when projects are canceled or delayed for a variety of reasons. Through City Council and HUD
approval of an amended annual action plan, the city can fund new or augment existing activities
during the program year as additional funds become available. On Jan . 28, 2020, the City
Council approved the first amendment to the FY 2019-20 Annual Action Plan to increase the
amount of available funding for affordable housing activities in the amount of $500,000,
allowing the city to continue its efforts in developing and/or purchasing affordable housing for
lower income households.
The recommended second amendment to the current FY 2019-20 Annual Action Plan is
described below.
May 5, 2020 Item #6 Page 3 of 118
La Posada
Catholic Charities has been operating the current La Posada de Guadalupe shelter since 2013.
La Posada offers 50 emergency shelter beds to homeless men and an additional 50 beds to local
farmer workers. During the winter months, the shelter increases the number of its emergency
shelter beds to 60, for a total of 110 beds. Th~ city's conditional use permit authorizes the
shelter to operate with up to 120 beds.
On March 10, 2020, Catholic Charities submitted a mid-year request for fiscal year 2019-20
funding in the amount of $58,000, for facility improvement costs associated with the
preliminary design of a proposed expansion (Exhibit 2). The requested funds will be used to
complete Phase A of the architectural design and engineering to expand the current buildings
without changing the buildings' structure. This includes remodeling the existing farmhouse and
homeless dormitory buildings to increase the bed capacity within the current building
footprints and configurations. This required work includes determining whether the entrances
and exits, existing restrooms, showers and laundry facilities are adequate or if they will need to
be increased. Additionally, Catholic Charities will need to determine if existing mechanical,
electrical and plumbing systems will need to be upgraded because of an increased number of
occupants.
Appropriating undesignated funds for the expansion of the La Posada Homeless Facility in the
amount of $58,000 will allow Catholic Charities to increase the number of emergency beds
available and assist the city's effort to meet the priority of providing and improving facilities for
lower income individuals and families.
Public services augmentation
An expedient and effective way of providing aid to the most vulnerable and low-income
families is to begin augmenting current FY 2019 CDBG contracts with public service providers by
increasing each current activity funding by 50 percent for the remaining fiscal year ending June
30. In consultation with the current service providers, staff has determined that this level of
increased funding can be used immediately. Interfaith Community Services has requested
additional funding above 50 percent to provide Carlsbad residents with rental assistance
(Exhibit 3). Based on the organization's daily call log of 9-12-clients per day, Interfaith estimates
the need to serve at least ten Carlsbad clients each month in May and Jun_e, with an average
request of $1,500 each. Requests range between $1,200 and $2,000, so $40,000 in additional
funding will serve a total of 20 new residents. La Posada Catholic Charities Homeless Shelter has
also requested additional funding above 50 percent to cover the increase expenses of
sheltering homeless men around the clock, which includes food, utilities, wages, and program
supplies for a total request of $54,848 (Exhibit 4).
May 5, 2020 Item #6 Page 4 of 118
Staff recommends the following increased funding for existing public service contracts:
Project Current funding Proposed funding
Catholic Charities $20,000 $74,848
Interfaith Community Services $19,872 $59,872
Women's Resource Center $10,000 $15,000
Brother Benno $15,000 $22,500
Meals-on-wheels $10,000 $15,000
Community Resource Center $10,000 $15,000
Citizen Participation Plan Amendment
As required by HUD regulations, the city must have and follow a detailed Citizen Participation
Plan that specifies the city's policies and procedures for engaging community members and
encouraging them to participate in creating, evaluating, and implementing the CDBG program.
To speed up the distribution of funds in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and as authorized
by HUD waivers, staff proposes a modification to the Citizen Participation Plan to establish
expedited procedures to draft, propose, and amend consolidated plans and action plans related
to emergency response (Exhibit 1B). Expedited procedures will include public notice with the
reasonable opportunity for public comment no less than five days before the plans are
approved with in-person public hearings not required.
The city will meet public hearing requirements with virtual public hearings if national, state or
local health authorities recommend social distancing and limiting public gatherings for public
health reasons and virtual hearings provide reasonable notification and access for citizens,
timely responses to questions from community members and public access to all questions and
responses.
Fiscal Analysis
The balance of unexpended funds in the city's line of credit with HUD is currently $478,372,
sufficient for the recommended appropriation of $175,348. The recommended action does not
impact the General Fund.
Next Steps
Upon approval of the FY 2019-20 Annual Action Plan Amendment No. 2 and amended Citizen
Participation Plan, staff will submit the plans to HUD for approval.
Carlsbad is eligible to receive $315,666 in CARES Act funding, which HUD expects to release
within weeks. In anticipation of this, staff is presently consulting with various stakeholders to
prepare a needs assessment to inform recommended use of the CARES Act funding. In addition,
to take advantage of the funding flexibilities granted by the CARES Act, staff will present the FY
2020-21 Annual Action Plan with the CDBG Advisory Committee's recommendations and
supplemental funding recommendations indicated by the needs· assessment. CARES Act funding
recommendations and the FY 2020-21 Annual Action Plan will be presented to the City Council
in June.

Environmental Evaluation (CEOA)
Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, this action does not constitute a "project"
within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act 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
To allow interested residents the opportunity to review and comment on the proposed
changes, the city published a public notice in The San Diego Union-Tribune on April 30, 2020,
informing residents of the availability ofthe draft FY 2019-20 Annual Action Plan Amendment
No. 2, and the draft Amended Citizen Participation Plan for public review and comment for a .
period from April 30, 2020, to May 5, 2020.
HUD has provided the availability of waivers of certain regulatory requirements associated with
the CDBG program to expedite the delivery of assistance. The city reserves the right to use this
waiver to assist program beneficiaries and eligible households to prevent the spread of COVID-
19 and to mitigate against the economic impact caused by COVID-19 for eligible households.

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 coastline 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.
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, homeles_sness, and other special needs
Monitoring Plan
The City of Carlsbad participates in the HOME program under the County of San Diego. HOME funds are
being administered directly by the County of San Diego Housing and Community Development
Department. Homebuyer assistance is available to Carlsbad residents via County's HOME-funded
Down payment and Closing Cost Program.
In December 2019, a new coronavirus known as SARS-CoV-2 was first detected in Wuhan,
China, causing outbreaks of the coronavirus disease COVID -19 that has now spread globally. The first case was
reported in the United States in January 2020. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the
coronavirus outbreak a pandemic and President Trump declared the outbreak a national emergency. Grantees
have been advised to amend or prepare their plans as soon as possible thus prompting the city to act swiftly to
provide assistance to Carlsbad residents. Amending the FY 2019-2020 Annual Action Plan will provide additional
funding to the city's current public services providers to continue services related to rental assistance, food
service, shelter, and basic needs.
2. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan

The City of Carlsbad has a range of housing and community development needs. CD BG 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 pr-ogram regulations, the city intends to
use these fun_ds 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 FY 2015-2019
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 income 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) Prograll! 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 SO-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 (BH S) 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..

AP-10 Consultation -91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(1)
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 coalitions 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 forr
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 Sa~ 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 is an active member of the San Diego Regional Continuum of Care Council (RCCC) which is a 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 of funds available under the Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG)
program. The representatives seek ways to improve collaboration and shar~ 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 ·1ocal 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 (Notte of Funding Availability).

The _Regional Task Force on the Homeless (RTFH) was selected by the RCCC to manage the reg ion'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. I nano, aDaaAdvisory 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.

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 thisplan.
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.

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 plann ing 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.

Introduction
Priority Needs established in the FY 2015-2019 Five-Year Consolidated Plan, which form the basis for
establishing objectives and outcomes in the FY 2019-2020 One-Year Action Plan, are as follows:
High Priority
Increase the Supply of Affordable Housing Units
Provide Supportive Services for the Homeless, Lower-Income Residents, and Persons with
Special Needs

Provide Fair Housing Services to Residents

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 5, 2020 Item #6 Page 53 of 118
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 requ irement 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
39
May 5, 2020 Item #6 Page 54 of 118
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.

Brief Description of Program/Project (Describe the work to be performed, including the activities to be
undertaken or the services to be provided, the goals and objectives of the program/project, etc.):
Catholic Charities Diocese of San Diego is looking to expand the bed capacity at La Posada. CCCDSD
will work with the Ware Malcomb architecture firm for the shelter expansion.

La Posada addressed the goals enumerated in the Draft Consolidated Plan by providing temporary
housing for the homeless along with comprehensive supportive services and referral to assistance in
accessing long-term housing. From the Consolidated Plan, the program addresses the following
priorities specifically:
• Priority Need 1: Affordable Housing
As an integral component of the San Diego region's coordinated entry system, La Posada supports
men with the most needs, accepting residents through self-referral and by inter-agency collaboration.
All residents complete comprehensive standardized assessments as part of their case planning and
are connected to housing navigation services through CCDSD and partner agencies. Benefits offered
to residents through the region's coordinated entry system include housing navigation, assistance
and advocacy with landlords, a connection to public agencies and nonprofit organizations to obtain
housing with the appropriate supports, maximizing their opportunities to live independently and
avoid returning to homelessness.
• Priority Need 2: Supportive Services
La Posada provides shelter and services to homeless men leading to improved self-reliance through
employment, housing stability, treatment of mental health and substance abuse issues and other
assistance.
La Posada offers three meals daily, hygiene facilities and social services, including case management,
health and nutrition education, translation and interpretation, recreation, and referrals to healthcare
and assistance in obtaining permanent housing. Primary services are provided onsite and the
program refers participants for off-site emplo,yment and Job training and medical services. La Posada
is open 365 days a year with services available 24 hours a day. Program staff work in partnership
with the region's multiple support agencies connected through the Alliance for Regional Solutions
and La Posada hosts representatives of partner agencies to connect residents to as many services as
possible. CCDSD is working with its regional partners to bring their services on-site at La Posada on a
4
May 5, 2020 Item #6 Page 70 of 118
regular basis .
La Posada includes private and public meeting space as well as recreational space and other
amenities. All participants are engaged in progressive case management with individualized case
plan tracking, progress from baselines toward the achievement of personalized objectives. La
Posada's objectives address multiple needs of an individuals life, addressing each man with a holistic
approach. Such services include: employment opportunities, public benefits and resources, conflict
resolution, and personal management including budgeting and legalities. La Posada addresses
employment skills, language and cultural barriers, substance abuse, and therefore provides each man
with the tools necessary to succeed. In addition, active participation in case management is a
requirement for all residents as well as staying compliant with community guidelines and program
agreements.
Case management and other supportive services, provided by La Posada staff and an array of local
partners, focus on providing basic employment and life skills and assisting individuals to resolve
mental and physical barriers that limit their options for self-sufficiency through employment. La
Posada's partnerships have grown and strengthened over its long history as they are an integral part
of the program's service strategy.
Current partners include:
-Interfaith Community Services: provides residents with employment services and support
including assistance in developing resumes, connecting residents to day labor, offering
Veterans housing services and financial literacy classes.
-Veteran Community Services: ass ists veteran residents with deposits and rental assistance
creating access to permanent housing, also assists with securing public entitlements.
-Lions Club: provides residents with vouchers for free eye exams and glasses through an
agreement with Lenscrafters, Inc ..
-Alcoholics Anonymous: offers meetings held on-site weekly in both English and Spanish.
-Vista Community Clinic: signs up and transports residents for next day medical
Appointments from the shelter to the clinic giving them access to doctor visits, medicine,
check-ups, blood work and many other services. These include: behavioral health, dental,
family planning, optometry, podiatry, immunizations, and insurance assistance among
many others.

assessments, and referrals them to mental health resources.

with securing employment and employment opportunity.
La Posada serves a region encompassing all of Coastal North County reaching as far north as
Camp Pendleton, as far south as San Diego, and as far inland as Escondido. Due to the very
nature of homelessness, especially for farm workers and other working poor populations, the
program's service area is one inclusive of men whose daily lives cross city boundaries and
intersect with public and private services bounded by Interstates 5 and 15. Altogether, more than
764 homeless individuals in La Posada's service area are included in the most recent point-in-time
count reported by the Regional Task Force on the Homeless, including individuals in
unincorporated North County Coastal areas.
The program serves a significant subset of men with special needs, 50% altogether, including men
with physical disabilities, chronic diseases and other conditions that impede their employability
and potential for self-reliance. That percentage also includes men with persistent, severe mental
illness, often untreated or even undiagnosed at the time of program entry.
San Diego County as a whole has one of the highest concentrations of homeless veterans in all
major US metropolitan areas and is one of the federal government's targeted communities for
ending veteran homelessness. Through its participation in the region's coordinated entry system
and other regional partnerships, CCDSD is invested in using its combined resources to ensure
access to rapid re-housing and other long-term solutions for homeless veterans. La Posada serves
as a front-door to multi-faceted support and placement for homeless veteran men severed from
mainstream resources by the myriad of issues that complicate post-conflict reintegration with
linkage to the agency's additional programs and those of collaborating agencies throughout
North Coastal San Diego County.
With 3.5% of all participants being chronically homeless by federal definition, La Posada
addresses another federal priority as well as one of the North Coastal region's most pressing
areas of need. While every instance of homelessness merits a swift and permanent response,
those instances that persist for years, complicated by disabling conditions, constitute the face of
homelessness most familiar in the minds of the general public. Due to the condition of being
chronically homeless, m_ore support and resources are needed. It can be difficult to engage and to
help their underlying mental and physical issues, which makes homelessness a unique issue for
many citites and a top priority. Long-term solutions are possible with the current work that is
being done by shelters that will help aid and prevent more issues from occuring. The intensive
service settings of these men are rendered at a higher rate than those experiencing temporary
financial crisis. Serving the basic needs of the most vulnerable benefits the entire community and
will be a solution for years to come.
D. Please indicate the number of clients benefiting from the proposed activity and the percentage that
are Carlsbad residents.

ORGANIZATION:
1. In 250 words or less, please describe how your organization will be use the requested funds.
The requested funds will be used to complete Phase A of the architectural design and engineering
to expand the current la Posada buildings (without changing the buildings structure). Catholic
Charities Diocese of San Diego {CCDSD) is looking to expand the bed capacity at la Posada. CCCDSD
will work with the Ware Malcomb architecture firm for the shelter expansion. Re-work the existing
dormitory buildings {Farmhouse Workers and Homeless) to increase the bed capacity within the
current building footprints and configurations. This will require research to determine if egress,
existing restrooms, showers and laundry facilities are adequate or if they will need to be increased.
Add itionally, Ware Malcomb will determine if existing mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems
will need to be upgraded due to increased amount of occupants. It is assumed that the existing
kitchen equipment, dining & storage will be adequate for this phase and that the existing parking
will be acceptable to City of Carlsbad. {Attachment D)
2. Attach an Excel budget showing the specific line-item breakdown on how you arrived at the funding
request.
Please see Attachment E
3. Describe how your organization will be able to advance your program if you do not receive the
entire funding request. What is your funding threshold before you can no longer provide the
intended services or supplies you are seeking?
la Posada will still run our men's homeless shelter however, we will not be able to start the process
of expanding our facility to accomidate more homeless individuals.
4. Does your organization charge a fee for accessing your services or supplies? If so, please describe
the rational for this fee.
No, all services for the homeless shelter are free including bedding, food, toiletries, shoes and
clothing as available. There are also incentives for people that get a job, a one day pass for
appointments, interviews or work, free haircuts for the men who are getting job interviews, and
three meals a day including coffee for free.

5. Will the funding of this program with a CDBG grant allow you to receive a matching grant from
another organization? If so, where would those funds come from and how much would that grant
be in dollars?
The requested CDBG funds are not directly linked to any matching grants requested from any other
sources. However, through ongoing fundraising, grant seeking and other appeals, CCDSD will
leverage funding from the City of Carlsbad through multiple sources.
6. If your funding is approved, how many Carlsbad residents will you be able to assist?
This funding will allow CCDSD's La Posada to secure the expansion plan of the bed capacity though
which more homeless men in Carlsbad could be sheltered. CCDSD will not know how much we can
expand and what is required for expanding the bed capacity until we complete Phase A. After Phase
A is completed, CCDSD will be able to identify the capital improvements, if any, needed to expand
the bed capacity. If capital improvements are needed, CCDSD will work to secure the necessary
funding needed for the capital improvements. CCDSD plans to expand and help more people as
soon as we have secured additional program funding to assist more men including costs for
additional staff, food and supplies.

Independent Auditor's Report
To the Board of Directors
Catholic Charities, Diocese of San Diego
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Catholic Charities, Diocese of San Diego, which comprise
the statements of financial position as of June 30, 2018 and 2017, and the related statements of activities, functional
expenses and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation,
and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
OUJ responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures t~ obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of·
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments,
the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial
_statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.

JUNE 30, 2018 AND 2017
Note 2 -Significant Accounting Policies:
Accounting Method
The financial statements of Catholic Charities have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting which is in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and,
accordingly, reflect all significant receivables, payables, and other liabilities.
Financial Statement Presentation
The financial statements present information regarding the financial position and activities according to three
classes of net assets: unrestricted net assets, temporarily restricted net assets and permanently restricted net assets.
Unrestricted net assets -Net assets not subject to donor-imposed stipulations.
Temporarily restricted net assets -Net assets subject to donor-imposed stipulations that will be met by
actions of Catholic Charities and/or the passage of time. When a donor stipulated time-restriction ends,
or a purpose restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted
net assets and reported in the statement of activities as net assets released from restrictions.
Permanently restricted net assets -Net assets subject to donor-imposed stipulations requiring that they
be maintained permanently by Catholic Charities. The income from these assets is available for either
general operations or specific programs as specified by the donor.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
statements and the reported amounts ofrevenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
Catholic Charities invests in various types of investment securities which are exposed to various risks, such as
interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with ce1tain investment securities, it is
at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and
such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statement of financial position.

JUNE 30, 2018 AND 2017
Note 2 -Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued}
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value accounting standards define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, outline a fair
value hierarchy based on inputs used to measure fair value and enhance disclosure requirements for fair value
measurements. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market
data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity ( observable inputs that are classified within Level
1 or 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity's own assumptions about market participant assumptions
(unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).
Catholic Charities' statements of financial position include the following financial instruments that are required
to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Investments in mutual funds and corporate stock are considered Level 1 assets and are reported at fair
value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets at the measurement date.
Other investments are considered Level 2 assets and are reported at the fair value of the underlying
assets.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Bad debts are recognized on the allowance method based on historical experience and management's evaluation
of outstanding receivables. Management believes all accounts and contributions receivable are collectible;
therefore, no allowance for doubtful accounts and contributions receivable has been established at June 30, 2018
and 2017.
Capitalization and Depreciation
Catholic Charities capitalizes all expenditures in excess of $5,000 for property and equipment at cost, while
donations of property and eqwpment are recorded as contributions at their estimated fair value. Such donations are
reported as unrestricted support unless the donor has restricted the donated asset to a specific purpose. Assets
donated with explicit restrictions regarding their use and contributions of cash that must be used to acquire property
and equipment are reported as restricted support. Absent donor stipulations regarding how long those donated assets
must be maintained Catholic Charities reports expirations of donor restrictions when the donated or acquired asset
are placed in service as instructed by the donor. Catholic Charities reclassifies temporarily restricted net assets to
unrestricted net assets at that time. Property and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line and accelerated
methods over the estimated useful lives of 5 to 27 .5 years. Depreciation totaled $318,337 and $339,425 for the years
ended June 30 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Maintenance, repairs and major renewals are charged to operations as incurred. Upon sale or disposition of
property and equipment, the asset account is relieved of the cost and the accwnulated depreciation account is
charged with depreciation taken prior to the sale and any resultant gain or loss is credited or charged to earnings.

Note 2 -Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)
Impairment of Real Estate
Catholic Charities reviews its property for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying value of such property may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by a comparison
of the canying amounts of the property to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by
the property and any estimated proceeds from the eventual disposition of the property. If the property is
considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured at the amount by which the carrying
amount of the property exceeds the fair value of such property. There were no impairment losses recognized in
June 30, 2018 and 2017.
Donated Property
Donated property consists of land donated to Catholic Charities and is reported at fair value as of the date of
donation. Donated property totaled $30,000 and $30,000 at June 30, 2018, and 2017, respectively.
Compensated Absences
Accumulated unpaid vacation totaling $349,152 and $360,452 at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, is
accrued when incurred and included in accrued compensated absences.
Revenue Recognition
Grant revenue is recognized in the period in which the related work is performed in accordance with the terms
of the grant. Grants receivable are recorded when revenue earned under a grant exceeds the cash received.
Deferred revenue is recorded when cash received under a grant or from a tenant exceeds the revenue earned.
Deferred revenue totaled $69,800 and $401,484 at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Contributions are recognized when the donor makes a promise to give to Catholic Charities that is in substance,
unconditional. Contributions that are restricted by the donor are reported as increases in unrestricted net assets
if the restrictions expire in the fiscal year in which the contributions are recognized. ALI other donor-restricted
contributions are reported as increases in temporarily or permanently restricted net assets depending on the
nature of the restrictions. When a restriction expires, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to
unrestricted net assets.
Donated Services
Catholic Charities utilizes the services of many volunteers throughout the year. This contribution of services by
the volunteers is not recognized in the financial statements unless the services received (a) create or enhance
nonfinancial assets or (b) require specialized skills which are provided by individuals possessing those skills and
would typically need to be purchased if not provided by donation. The donated services for the years ended
June 30, 2018 and 2017, did not meet the requirements above, therefore no amounts were recognized in the
financial statements.

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)
Allocated Expenses
Expenses by function have been all ocated among program and supporting services classifications on the basis
of internal records and estimates made by Catholic Charities' management.
Income Tax Status
Catholic Charities is a public charity and is exempt from income taxes under Section 50l(c)(3) of the Internal
Revenue Code and Section 2370l(d) of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. Catholic Charities believes
that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions
that are material to the financial statements. Catholic Charities is not a private foundation.
Catholic Charities' Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax for the years ended June 30, 2018, 2017,
2016 and 2015 are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and State taxing authorities, generall y
three to four years after the returns were filed.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Catholic Charities maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured
limits. Catholic Charities has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Catholic Charities believes it is not
exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to receivables are generally diversified due to the large number of
grantor agencies composing Catholic Charities' programs. Catholic Charities' receivables from three grantor
agencies totaled 59% and 65% of accounts receivable at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Grants from the
Federal government totaled 55% and 60% of totaJ revenue for the years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017,
respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, Catholic Charities considers all rughly liquid investments available
for current use with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Reclassification
Catholic Charities has reclassified certain prior year information to conform with the current year presentation.
Subsequent Events
In preparing these financial statements, Cathol ic Charities has evaluated events and transactions for potential
recognition or disclosure through October 18, 2018, the date the financial statements were available to be issued
and concluded that there were no events or transactions that needed to be disclosed.

Dear Carlsbad City Council,
April 14,2020
In response to a rapidly changing reality due to COVID-19, Catholic Charities Diocese of
San Diego (CCDSD) has opened our La Posada men's shelter to serve those in need in a
safe, effective, and reJjable manner that complies with c;ovID-19 requirements. As
defined in our mission, CCDSD witnesses the gospel message contained in Matthew 25;
bringing people together to fill in the gaps for the underserved in San Diego and Imperial
Counties. ··
Attached is a budget of increased expenses due to COVID-19. The homeless men at La
Posada who are now there "sheltering in place" following Governor Newsom's order. This
caused us to add extra shifts of staff to cover 7M-5PM when the men are usually out
working. The utilities have also increased with the men staying there all day as well as the
food costs. CCDSD has increased our shifts and services to help the vulnerable navigate
this uncertain time. I have outlined on the attached budget some areas that we could use
additional funding from CDBG Carlsbad.
Thank you for thinking of us during this time.
We appreciate your support.
Sincerely,

Public Comment for City of Carlsbad Council Meeting
May 5, 2020, 3:00 PM
Agenda Item: 6. FY 2019-20 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT ANNUAL
ACTION PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2
Submitted by: Greg Anglea, Chief Executive Officer, Interfaith Community Service
Public comment to be read into the record:
Dear Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers,
On behalf of the Board and staff of Interfaith Community Services, I commend the City of
Carlsbad for demonstrating proactive leadership in response to the unprecedented challenges
presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, .and investing critical funding to help those who are hardest
hit by the crisis. Interfaith Community Services is proud to be a current service provider under the
City's Community Development Block Grant Program, and we are honored to be recommended
for an ·additional $40,000 in funding to provide rental assistance to Carlsbad residents who are at-
risk of homelessness due to job loss, illness, and other COVID-19 related economic repercussions.
Interfaith Community Services is the trusted service provider for over 17,000 individuals
in North County San Diego each year. During this time of unprecedented crisis and uncertainty,
our neighbors need us now more than ever. Our staff are on the frontlines of caring for those who
are at the highest risk for contracting COVID-19 and who are also most likely to suffer
disproportionate economic consequences as a result of the outbreak, including older adults, people
experiencing homelessness, those with chronic health conditions, and unemployed workers and
'\
their families.
F
The devastating economic impacts related to COVID-19 have put more Carlsbad families at-
risk of homelessness. As families cope with job losses, Interfaith is one of the only resources that
residents can turn to for rental assistance. If approved, the additional $40,000 will help Interfaith
the meet the surge in families seeking rental assistance, and also increase the amount of
· assistance available to families-from a previous average of $500-600 per family to up to $2,000
per family-giving families a longer period to stabilize and recover.
This funding will bring hope to Carlsbad families in dire need of assistance. While it can take
thousands of dollars in resources to overcome homelessness, often only a few hundred dollars
can keep someone housed, as evidenced by the following story of a Carlsbad family Interfaith
has helped during this pandemic:
Lydia (name changed for privacy) is a single mother of three children ages 11, 7, and 5. In
addition to supporting the needs of her children, she also supports her mother who resides with
her. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, both daughter and mother were furloughed from their
positions. Lydia, working in the medical.field, thought her job was safe. However, the clinic
where she worked.furloughed all nonessential departments due to health and safety concerns.
During the wait time of seeking and receiving approval of unemployment benefits, Lydia was
unable to make her monthly rent payments. Interfaith provided short-term rental assistance and
also worked with Lydia to provide emergency food relief until her Ca/Fresh benefits are
increased.
In closing, I again thank the City for its recommendation of increased funding for Interfaith
Community Services and the Council for its consideration. It is times like these that display the
true compassion of our community. By coming together to support our community, we will get
through this stronger than ever.
