Block Grant Program
Districts: All
Recommended Actions
1. Hold a public hearing; and
2. Adopt a resolution approving the Community Development Block Grant Program Fiscal Year
2024-25 Annual Action Plan for submission to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development.
Executive Summary
The city receives Community Development Block Grant funds from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) each year. These grants are intended to help the city
provide decent housing and a suitable living environment and to expand economic
opportunities, principally for low- and moderate-income people.
The City Council must adopt a Community Development Block Grant annual action plan each
year for the city to receive the funding. The action plan is then submitted to HUD for its review
and final approval. The action plan identifies goals, projects, and funding allocations for the
city’s annual entitlement grant of $518,215 for the 2024-25 fiscal year, of which 15% –
approximately $78,000 – can be used for direct services to address homelessness. The action
plan assesses community development needs, identifies six priority goals and outlines
strategies to help the city meet those goals.
The Housing Commission met and reviewed the Community Development Block Grant FY 2024-
25 funding recommendations on March 14, 2024. The commission approved a resolution
(Exhibit 2) approving the FY 2024-25 funding recommendations for incorporation in the FY
2024-25 Annual Action Plan and recommended that the City Council approve the plan (Exhibit
1, Attachment A).

Explanation & Analysis
Overview
The federal Community Development Block Grant Program provides Carlsbad with a reliable
source of funding for programs intended to improve the lives of their low- and moderate-
income residents in Carlsbad.
The Fiscal Year 2024-25 Annual Action Plan covers the fifth year of the city’s five-year
Consolidated Plan, which assesses community development needs, identifies six priority goals
and outlines strategies to help the city meet those goals. The City Council approved the
following priorities for the Community Development Block Grant funds on Jan. 14, 2020:
Priority 1: Increase and preserve affordable housing opportunities for low- and
moderate-income households
Priority 2: Prevent and reduce homelessness
Priority 3: Strengthen support services for residents with special needs
Priority 4: Improve and provide facilities to serve lower-income persons
Priority 5: Provide fair housing services to residents
Priority 6: Plan and administer the Community Development Block Grant program
On Oct. 17, 2023, the City Council confirmed the priorities and authorized staff to issue a notice
of funding availability and accept applications for FY 2024-25 Community Development Block
Grant funds. (Resolution No. 2023-124) The application period was approximately eight weeks.
from Nov. 17, 2023-Jan. 12, 2024. Six applications were received from outside non-profit
agencies for various services and projects. A brief summary of each application is located in this
report, and the full applications are provided as Exhibit 4.
The action plan being submitted for the City Council’s approval details how the city intends to
use its Community Development Block Grant funds to try to achieve the council approved goals.
The full plan is included as Exhibit 1, Attachment A, and a funding summary is provided as
Exhibit 3.
For FY 2024-25, the City of Carlsbad will receive an estimated annual entitlement grant of
$518,215. The estimated funding allocations are as follows:
Funding allocation breakdown
Public service activities (15% max) $77,732
Program administration and fair housing (20% max) $103,643
Affordable housing and facility improvement activities $336,840
FY 2024-25 entitlement grant $518,215

Summary of funding - public services
The CDBG funding available for public services is limited and heavily regulated, with significant
reporting and monitoring requirements. The city received four applications for public services
activities, totaling $195,386, which exceeded the estimated available amount by $117,654.
Because the CDBG funding available for public services is such a low amount ($77,732), but
requires a high administrative burden, city staff recommend that CDBG funding be used to fund
fewer service contracts, but in higher amounts, rather than spreading the limited resources to all
applicants.
City staff recommend allocating funding for two contracts for emergency rental assistance, which
are essential prevention components of the city’s Homelessness Action Plan. This activity is well
suited for CDBG reporting, because the screening of potential clients already provides the data
necessary for CDBG reporting.
Considering the limited funding available for public services, city staff made their
recommendations based on the following criteria:
• Services that are identified in the Homelessness Action Plan
• Services located in the City of Carlsbad
• Organizations that have a strong capacity to adhere to strict administrative
requirements of federal funding
Funding fewer agencies, two or three, with meaningful amounts is a recommended practice
due to the time-intensive process required to monitor each contract and activity.
Of the four non-profit agencies requesting CDBG funds for public services programs, staff are
recommending Brother Benno’s and Catholic Charities not be funded through the CDBG
program, but through other funding alternatives identified in the Homelessness Action Plan’s
Funding Plan. Staff’s recommended approach still funds homeless services projects at the FY
2023-24 level with other funding sources and does not increase the amount dedicated for
direct homeless services from the General Fund.

2 The federal Fair Housing Act ensures that people are protected from discrimination on the basis of protected
classes (such as race, gender and national origin) when renting or purchasing a home, when applying for a
mortgage, seeking housing assistance or engaging in other housing-related activities. Fair housing services include educating residents and housing providers about their rights and obligations under the Fair Housing Act. Fair housing service providers receive fair housing complaints from residents and housing providers and mediate
and/or refer cases depending upon the case. Services also include random testing within the rental market to
determine if testers experience disparate treatment based upon a protected class.

Casa de Amparo
Casa de Amparo is requesting CDBG funds to complete a parking lot and landscaping project to
its building in San Marcos. Casa de Amparo is a California community care licensed short-term
residential services program for youth and adolescents from ages 12-18. Casa de Amparo also
operates a transitional housing program for young adults ages 18-24. Casa de Amparo was
founded in 1978 and has a campus in San Marcos that serves all of San Diego County, including
Carlsbad.

2020 and is designed to help qualified lower income households purchase city-owned
residential units at an affordable price.
Funding request $236,840
CDBG funding to budget This program is funded by CDBG and the city’s Housing
Trust Fund
Consolidated Plan priority Increase and preserve affordable housing
Anticipated outcome Approximately one at-risk affordable resale unit purchased
for resale to eligible low-income homebuyer
Recommendation Fund $236,840 toward the city’s Affordable Housing
Resale Program and city-owned affordable rental housing
rehabilitation needs.
Program income and back-up projects
Some CDBG-funded activities generate program income, such as the city’s Affordable Housing
Resale Program, which purchases affordable housing to be resold to qualified buyers. The
average amount of program income received annually varies, with a five-year average of
$438,302. CDBG regulations allow up to 15% of any program income received during the fiscal
year to be allocated to public services, and up to 20% allocated to program administration.
Program income must be allocated in the same manner as entitlement funds and comply with
all CDBG regulations.
As a proactive measure to ensure the timely expenditure of funds, staff recommend allocating
the program income at the beginning of the fiscal year along with the approval of the FY 2024-
25 CDBG Annual Action Plan, rather than waiting until the program income is received and then
having to go through the process of amending the FY 2024-25 CDBG Annual Action Plan mid-
year.
May 7, 2024 Item #7 Page 7 of 167
Staff recommend using the program income received during FY 2024-25 as follows:
• Up to 15% for public services activities found in the funding summary (Exhibit 3)
• Up to 20% for administration and fair housing activities
• The remaining program income received during FY 2024-25 to go to the Affordable
Housing Fund
Once enough program income is received, it will be allocated according to the priority list
shown in Exhibit 3. Based on the projected amount of program income, staff anticipate enough
program income will be received to fund the first 1-2 priority projects.
As an additional measure, staff are recommending including back-up projects in the FY 2024-25
CDBG Annual Action Plan. These back-up projects would be considered if additional funding
becomes available, or if approved projects or programs are not making progress in a timely
fashion. Back-up projects are projects having been identified as CDBG-eligible, meeting at least
one priority of the city’s consolidated plan for CDBG funds and ready-to-fund and likely to be
completed in a short period of time. Staff recommend funding as back-up projects city-wide
projects that would bring city facilities and infrastructure into compliance with the Americans
with Disabilities Act.
Lastly, because the final FY 2024-25 CDBG award is not known as of writing of this report, staff
are proposing the following adjustments:
• If the FY 2024-25 grant is more or less than anticipated, adjustments will be made to
reflect a proration over all the approved public service activities at 15% of grant
funding, to comply with the CDBG program funding limits.
• If the FY 2024-25 grant is more or less than anticipated, adjustments will be made to
reflect 20% of entitlement funding to approved program administration activities.
• If the FY 2024-25 grant is more or less than anticipated, adjustments will be made to
reflect the available entitlement funding for the Affordable Housing Fund.
Community Engagement
As a recipient of federal Community Development Block Grant funds, the city must allow for
public participation in the grant funding and reallocation process. The city’s Citizen Participation
Plan for the CDBG program describes the ways in which the city will meet those public
participation requirements.
In accordance with that plan, this public hearing required a 10-day public notice period. The
draft FY 2024-25 CDBG Annual Action Plan also required a notice announcing a 30-day public
review period. Staff published the notice for these requirements in the Coast News and on the
city’s website on April 5, 2024.
Past and current subrecipients of CDBG funds and city departments were directly notified of the
draft FY 2024-25 CDBG Annual Action Plan availability for public comment.
All comments received during the public hearing will be included in the final plan as part of the
citizen participation section.
May 7, 2024 Item #7 Page 8 of 167
Fiscal Analysis
The Community Development Block Grant program is a fully funded federal program and is
separate from the city’s General Fund. The program operates on a reimbursement basis, in
which grant funds are expended for approved activities and then reimbursed from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Next Steps
The FY 2024-25 Community Development Block Grant Annual Action Plan will be submitted to
HUD by the statutory requirement of May 17, 2024, 45 days before the beginning of new fiscal
year. Funding agreements with the organizations that are to receive the grants will be executed
after HUD has committed funding.
Environmental Evaluation
This action does not require environmental review because it does not constitute a project
within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act under Public Resources Code
Section 21065 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.

Executive Summary
AP-05 Executive Summary - 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
1.Introduction
As an entitlement jurisdiction under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD),
the City of Carlsbad (“City”) receives federal funds in proportion to its population size, concentration of
poverty, and other socioeconomic and demographic data. To receive such funds, the City of Carlsbad
must submit a Consolidated Plan every five years to HUD and an Annual Action Plan each year. The
Annual Action Plan document is the city’s plan to carry out the expenditure of funds as approved by the
City Council. This year the Annual Action Plan covers the Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-2025.
2.Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan
HUD’s Office of Community Planning and Development maintains the following approaches to
developing viable communities: (1) providing decent housing; (2) providing a suitable living
environment; and (3) expanding economic opportunity. The city established the following priorities for
the 2020-2025 Consolidated Plan period to achieve HUD’s vision:
• Priority 1: Increase and preserve affordable housing opportunities for low-and-moderate
income households.
• Priority 2: Prevent and reduce homelessness.
• Priority 3: Strengthen support services for residents with special needs.
• Priority 4: Improve and provide facilities to serve lower income persons.
• Priority 5: Provide fair housing services to residents.
• Priority 6: Plan and administer the CDBG program.
These priorities represent the diverse needs of the city which emerged through the Consolidated Plan
community engagement and development process. This process includes qualitative and quantitative
data gathered through citizen participation, market analysis, and assessment of needs. As a result,
affordable housing was identified as the top priority of residents who participated in the Community
Needs Survey and was echoed by individuals who participated in the community meetings. Carlsbad is
one of the least affordable cities in North County San Diego; the identification of affordable housing as a
top priority by residents reflects this lived reality. Homelessness in the city is directly related to the high
cost and lack of housing available thus preventing and reducing homelessness is a top priority as well.
Affordable housing and serving the homeless population continue to be the top priorities that the city
continues to work on. The goals identified above address the uses of CDBG funds in Carlsbad and will be
leveraged by other funding sources.
3.Evaluation of past performance
The city has successfully implemented housing, homelessness, and public facilities activities in the
previous Action Plan cycle, impacting the lives of thousands of LMI residents. It is anticipated the

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
city and its partners will continue to have an impact on residents through collaborative efforts. The
following represent some of the achievements in the previous Action Plan:
• Resale of eight affordable housing units serving eight LMI households
• Approximately 89 Carlsbad residents served through fair housing services
• Approximately 65 Carlsbad residents served through the homeless overnight shelter
• Approximately 24 youth assisted through facility improvement project
• Approximately 75 senior households assisted through facility improvement project
• Partnered with approximately 5 community partners to provide funding for services assisting
approximately 1,066 Carlsbad residents served through homelessness prevention public services
Full program outcomes are reported on an annual basis through Consolidated Annual Performance
Evaluation Reports (CAPERs). These reports are provided to the general public for public comment and
posted on the city’s website for public access.
4. Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process
The city’s community participation process was informed by the Citizens Participation Plan (CPP), which
guides the implementation of a community engagement process and notification of community
meetings and public hearings. To facilitate as much community participation as possible, the city held
one Housing Commission meeting, one public hearing at the City Council (one more planned in May
2024), and consulted with various organizational stakeholders including community planners,
businesses, community advocates, and other city departments.
In October 2023, the City Council approved amendments to the city’s Citizen and Community
Participation Plan including sunsetting the CDBG Advisory Committee and transferring the duties of
reviewing CDBG funding recommendations to the Housing Commission.
5. Summary of public comments
Across all events the general public was invited to speak and participate on the Annual Action
Plan and no comments were received.
6. Summary of comments or views not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them
All comments or views would have been accepted and responded to.
7. Summary
The city’s Action Plan sets forth the actions, activities, and funding levels for the program period of
2024-2025 and satisfies the statutory requirements for receiving CDBG funds.
More than merely meeting requirements, however, the city is committed to providing every opportunity
for residents and stakeholders in Carlsbad to participate in the Action Plan

AP-10 Consultation - 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l)
1. Introduction
The City of Carlsbad has long communicated and collaborates with many governmental and
nongovernmental agencies in the region to address the needs of the city’s LMI population. The city’s
formalized collaborative efforts include:
• Member of the County of San Diego’s HOME Consortium
• Supporter of Alliance for Regional Solutions, North County San Diego’s collaborative network of
homelessness service providers
• Participant in the Community Development Block Grant Administrators meetings
• Member of the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDRAFFH)
• Staff works closely with the County of San Diego Health and Human Services Agency as well as
nonprofit health and mental health providers
Other nongovernmental agencies the city works closely with include but are not limited to: Interfaith
Community Services, Women’s Resource Center, Brother Benno, Community Resource Center, and
Meals on Wheels. The city encourages agencies to work together to leverage resources and prevent
duplication of services for the betterment of the people being served.
The city’s CDBG program also consults with the Housing Commission and CDBG Citizens Advisory
Committee to inform and enhance the coordination of projects/activities, approaches, and strategies of
the CDBG program. The city is committed towards working with additional and new stakeholders to
improve efficiencies, discuss new approaches, and build more partnerships.
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(l)).
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
coordination of activities, sharing of information, and jointer 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 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.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
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 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.
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.
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.

Annual Action Plan
2023

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
AP-35 Projects - 91.420, 91.220(d)
Introduction
For FY 2024-25, the City of Carlsbad anticipates receiving $518,215 in CDBG funding. Based upon the
expected closing dates for three affordable resale program units, staff anticipates that the City will
receive approximately $519,000 in program income.
Because the final FY 2024-25 CDBG award is not known as of writing of this Action Plan, the
following adjustments are being proposed:
- If the FY 2024-25 grant is more or less than anticipated, adjustments will be made to reflect
a proration over all the approved public service activities at fifteen (15) percent of grant
funding, to comply with the CDBG program funding limits.
- If the FY 2024-25 grant is more or less than anticipated, adjustments will be made to reflect
twenty (20) percent of entitlement funding to approved program administration activities.
- If the FY 2024-25 grant is more or less than anticipated, adjustments will be made to reflect
the available entitlement funding for the Affordable Housing Fund.
PROGRAM INCOME & BACK-UP PROJECTS
Fund up to 15% of program income received during FY 2024-25 to recommended activities found in
Appendix 1, fund up to 20% of program income during FY 2024-25 to approved CDBG funded
administration and fair housing activities, and the remaining program income received during FY 2024-
25 to approved CDBG funded affordable housing activities.
Back-up projects are projects having been identified as CDBG eligible, meeting at least one Consolidated
Plan Priority, and intended to be ready-to-fund and complete in a short period of time. Back-up projects
are only to be considered only if additional funding becomes available or if approved projects or
programs are not proceeding in a timely fashion. For FY 2024-25, consider projects that would bring city
facilities and infrastructure into compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act as back-up projects.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and obstacles to addressing underserved needs
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 top
needs as financially feasible within the Action Plan time period, as well as the overall needs identified in
the FY 2020-25 Consolidated Plan.
During this time the COVID-19 pandemic is moving towards an endemic, the CDBG subrecipients
indicated that they continue to serve higher-risk populations. Those populations include persons
experiencing homelessness, seniors over the age of 60, and persons with disabilities. The city’s CDBG
subrecipients are experiencing increased needs related to food insecurity, emergency financial
assistance for housing, and short-term shelter. Within these needs, there has been an increase in case
management required, crisis intervention, and helping clients navigate various systems to connect to
benefits. Additionally, the city’s fair housing services provider has seen an increase in requests for fair
housing assistance due to confusion regarding the rights of tenants and homeowners with mortgages in
relationship to the new eviction moratoriums.

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 -profit entities 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 Inclusionary 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
has identified two primary strategies to reduce lead-based paint hazards in Carlsbad to be carried out
during the FY 2020-2025 Consolidated Plan period.
Strategy 1: 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

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
• 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 2024-25 to reduce poverty in Carlsbad:
1. Inclusionary Housing Ordinance
2. Housing Reserve Fund
3. Affordable Housing Trust Fund
4. Section 8 Vouchers
5. Village Revitalization Partnership Program
6. Economic Development Strategic Plan
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 2020-25 Consolidated Plan and FY 2024-25 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.

Meeting Date: March 14, 2024
To:Housing Commission
From:Christian Gutierrez, Housing Services Manager
Staff Contact:Nicole Piano-Jones, Senior Program Manager
nicole.pianojones@carlsbadca.gov, 442-339-2191
Subject: Community Development Block Grant FY 2024-25 Funding
Recommendations
District: All
Recommended Action
Adopt a resolution approving the funding recommendations to incorporate into the FY 2024-25
Annual Action Plan and recommending that the City Council approve the FY 2024-25 Annual
Action Plan for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG).
Executive Summary
The city receives Community Development Block Grant funds from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) each year. These grants are intended to help the city
provide decent housing and a suitable living environment, and to expand economic
opportunities, principally for low- and moderate-income people.
For FY 2024-25 the City of Carlsbad will receive an estimated annual entitlement grant of
$518,215, of which $77,732 estimated available for public service activities, $103,643 estimated
available for program administration and fair housing services, and $336,840 estimated
available for affordable housing and facility improvement activities.
On Oct. 17, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2023-124 which confirmed priorities
and authorized staff to issue a notice of funding availability and accept applications for FY 2024-
25 CDBG funds. The application period was approximately eight weeks from Nov. 17, 2023 –
Jan. 12, 2024. A total of six applications were received from outside non-profit agencies for
various services and projects. A brief summary of each application is located in this report and
full applications are provided as Exhibit 2.
On Oct. 17, 2023, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2023-264 which amended the city’s
Citizen Participation Plan to formally sunset the Community Development Block Grant Citizen’s
Advisory Committee and transfer the responsibilities of reviewing the Community Development
Block Grant funding applications to the Housing Commission. Therefore, this FY is the first year
for which the Housing Commission will be reviewing CDBG funding requests.
HOUSING COMMISSION

Staff Report
Attachment 2
May 7, 2024 Item #7 Page 39 of 167
Staff has prepared recommendations for each request which are found within this Staff Report
and Exhibit 1, Attachment A. The staff recommendations are based upon alignment with the
stated goals in the City Council approved Five-Year Strategic Plan, Community Development
Block Grant Consolidated Plan and the Carlsbad Homelessness Action Plan. Staff
recommendations are also based upon capacity to adhere to strict administrative requirements
of federal funding, physical location of organization and overall impact to Carlsbad residents.
Explanation & Analysis
Federal program restricts the amounts of funds available for public services and administration.
For FY 2024-25 the amount available for public services is $77,732. The city received four
applications for public services activities, totaling $195,386, which exceeds the estimated
available amount by $117,654. Based on the limited resources available for public services, city
staff is making recommendations based on the following criteria:
Services that are identified in the Homelessness Action Plan are the highest priority.
Services that are identified to receive other funding in Homelessness Funding Plan will
be considered for CDBG funding as a back-up in the event additional CDBG funding
becomes available.
Services located in the City of Carlsbad are the highest priority.
Organizations that have a strong capacity to adhere to the strict administrative
requirements of federal funding. While a grant for public services is an important
community benefit, federal requirements are a high bar for smaller organizations.
Funding fewer agencies (2-3) with meaningful amounts is a recommended practice due
to the high administrative requirements to oversee and monitor each contract and
activity. Staff does not recommend spreading the limited resources to all applicants.
While there are many valuable community service applicants, it is not feasible to
support all applicants with funding.
PUBLIC SERVICES
Four non-profit agencies have requested FY 2024-25 CDBG funds for public services programs.
Each request is summarized in the below table and narrative.

Anticipated Outcome: Approximately one at-risk affordable resale unit purchased

Staff recommendation: Fund $236,840 towards the city’s Affordable Housing

PROGRAM INCOME & BACK-UP PROJECTS
Some CDBG-funded activities generate program income. Program income must be allocated in
the same manner as entitlement funds and comply with all CDBG regulations. The average
amount of program income received from FY 2018 – FY 2022 was $438,302. CDBG regulations
allow up to 15% of program income received during the fiscal year to be allocated to public
services and up to 20% allocated to program administration. Using the average as an example,
up to $65,745 in program income could be allocated to public services and $87,660 allocated to
program administration. The remaining program income could be allocated to affordable
housing activities, including the city’s Affordable Housing Resale Program and repair and
rehabilitation to city-owned affordable housing rental housing.
Staff recommendation: Fund up to 15% of program income received during FY
2024-25 to staff recommended activities found in Exhibit
2, fund up to 20% of program income during FY 2024-25 to
approved CDBG funded administration and fair housing
activities, and the remaining program income received
during FY 2024-25 to approved CDBG funded affordable
housing activities.
Back-up projects are projects having been identified as CDBG eligible, meeting at least one
Consolidated Plan Priority, and intended to be ready-to-fund and complete in a short period of
time. Back-up projects are only to be considered only if additional funding becomes available or
if approved projects or programs are not proceeding in a timely fashion.
Staff recommendation: Consider city-wide projects that would bring city facilities
and infrastructure into compliance with the Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA) as back-up projects.
Fiscal Analysis
The Community Development Block Grant program is a fully funded federal program and is
separate from the city’s General Fund. The program operates on a reimbursement basis, in
which grant funds are expended for approved activities and then reimbursed from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Next Steps
Housing & Homeless Services staff will include the Housing Commission’s decision in the draft
FY 2024-25 Annual Action Plan and make available for public review and comment for a 30-day
period. The City Council will be asked to consider the FY 2024-25 Annual Action Plan at a public
hearing in May 2024 before submittal to HUD by the statutorily required deadline.
Environmental Evaluation
This action does not require environmental review because it does not constitute a project
within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act under Public Resources Code
March 14, 2024 Item #1 Page 6 of 58
Attachment 2
May 7, 2024 Item #7 Page 44 of 167

long-term support designed to end the cycle of homelessness and provide a path to housing stability.

shower and a clean change of clothes. Being able to provide our participants with lhe confidence that comes wilh feeling dean is often the first step many need to start their joumey to self-sufficiency. The shelter pro\lides
three meals daily and a packed lunth lo participants working in agriculture fields throughout the day. La Posada's goal starts Wth addressing these seemingly small but impactful goals. Feeling clean and having a nutritious meal leads to a good night's rest, which leads lo our residents feeling refreshed and safe, leading to discussions on haN they became unshekered, the goals they want to achieve, and how we can help them get to the
future they see themselves.

In addition to your Community Development Block Grant funding application, please complete
the following supplemental questionnaire.
THEME: A theme was not selected for this funding year. Preference will be given to the applications
which specifically address the Consolidated Plan Priorities however applications for unrelated services
are eligible for submission.
ORGANIZATION:
1. In 250 words or less, please describe how your organization will be using the
requested funds.
Catholic Charities Diocese of San Diego (CCDSD) will use the requested funds in our
CDBG Carlsbad application to offset La Posada staff salaries, supplies, utilities, and food
purchased for the residents. The salaries for employees at La Posada are one of the
most significant expenses; the staff consists of trauma-informed case managers who
provide the best resources for the residents staying at La Posada. The shelter is open
24/7, with 50 beds for men experiencing homelessness and 50 beds for farmworkers,
and it needs to be staffed around the clock to support the residents.
2. Attach an Excel budget showing the specific line-item breakdown on how you arrived
at the funding request.
Please see the Attached Excel Budget.
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?
CCDSD is working diligently to find new funding sources to support our homeless shelter
programs. La Posada has been running in a deficit. Due to this deficit, the Finance
Department has been working with the Director of Homeless Services and the manager
to look at the budget line items and take a deeper look, analyzing the expenses and
where the program can cut costs. The Board overseeing CCDSD has also monitored the
homeless shelters and programs. Unfortunately, the only option to significantly change
the budget is to reduce beds at La Posada. This is something that the organization takes
very seriously. The need for shelters and services to help people experiencing

Page 2
homelessness only increases every year. The cost of running the shelter also increases
as utilities alone have significantly increased this year.
The mission of CCDSD is to shelter the homeless; therefore, as an organization, we are
doing everything we can to increase funding and support for the shelter. We recently
partnered with the City of Carlsbad to possibly expand the shelter and increase the
physical size of La Posada to accommodate more shelter beds. This will allow us to
increase the number of people experiencing homelessness we can help by providing
shelter for women and children. The team at CCDSD is working on finding additional
funding sources and has begun planning the expansion. With the expansion, the budget
for La Posada will also increase, almost tripling to provide the best services and staff to
run the program.
Currently, the per-bed cost at Catholic Charities is $72. The two primary funding sources
for La Posada are currently CDBG grants and our partnership with Alliance for Reginal
Solutions. The funding provided is $8.64 per bed. This drastic difference is one of the
reasons La Posada is in a deficit situation.
Another unique partnership CCDSD is currently working with is Valdivia Farms. Valdivia
Farms was founded in 2017 and is a farm of fruits and vegetables. Valdivia Farms
partnered with CCDSD in 2022 to provide shelter for some farmworkers working at the
farm. This partnership provides a small income for La Posada, helping offset the cost of
shelter site. Valdivia Farms also provides economic
support to the City of Carlsbad, and we are excited to be working with an organization
that supports the community.
Catholic Charities understands that the need to provide shelter and services to
individuals experiencing homelessness is critical in San Diego. We will continue to
provide the services we are capable of and work to expand these services to help more
individuals. We are very proud that 40% of the men who come to La Posada leave our
shelter for permanent housing. The hope is that our success rate will help attract other
funding and support for the shelter.
4. Does your organization charge a fee for accessing your services or supplies? If so,
please describe the rational for this fee.
Catholic Charities does not charge a fee for accessing our services.
5. Will the funding of this program with a CDBG grant allows 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 funding for La Posada from the CDBG grant possibly being used as a matching grant
for another organization is something that our Philanthropy Department is looking into.
Currently, the focus is finding other public and private grants to support La Posada, and
they do not need a match. The team is exhausting all avenues for financial support of La
Posada and will continue to look for new opportunities.
6. If your funding is approved, how many Carlsbad residents will you be able to assist?
When funding is approved, Catholic Charities estimates that we will be able to help 90
Carlsbad residents experiencing homelessness.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Founded in 1978 by a local San Diego County group of women concerned about domestic violence
and the welfare of children, Casa de Amparo envisions a community where child abuse and neglect
are not tolerated, and where child abuse awareness and prevention are priorities. As a major force
in the field of child abuse prevention, we partner with the greater San Diego community and
beyond to ensure that children and their families receive unique and innovative services for
healing, for stopping child mistreatment of any kind, and for ending generational cycles of abuse.
With the mission to support those affected by and at risk of child abuse and neglect through a range
of programs and services that promote healing, growth, and healthy relationships, Casa de Amparo
delivers services via two primary programs: Residential Services and New Directions, as well as
provides supplementary therapeutic programming and activities for all youth served.
As a California Community Care Licensed Short-Term Residential Therapeutic Program
(STRTP), our Residential Services program provides trauma-informed, intensive residential care
to youth dependents of Child Welfare Services and wards from county probation. The program
serves youth and adolescents ages 12-18 from various ethnic backgrounds, as well as homeless
and LGBTQIA youth and youth with disabilities, who have been impacted by Adverse Childhood
Experiences (ACES) and trauma, including severe neglect, domestic violence, gang activity,
substance abuse, and/or exposure to violence in the community. Additionally, we serve girls with
special health care needs, who are pregnant and/or parenting, and/or involved in or at risk of
involvement in commercial sexual exploitation (CSE). This component of the program provides
the girls with a designated space to experience pregnancy and motherhood in home-like cottages
separate from our other on-site residential cottages. We provide 24-hour supervised care for all
residents, including medical treatment, meals, transportation, recreation, counseling, life skills
(including money management) and social skills development, education coordination, and case
management.
Our New Directions transitional housing program serves adolescents and young adults ages 18-
25 who are transitioning from the foster care system, including those who are pregnant and/or
parenting, and equips them with the necessary skills and resources to successfully transition to
independent living. Supports include intensive case management; stable housing with subsidized
rent (off-site from Casa de Amparo's campus); furnishings and basic necessities; support for
overall medical and mental health; employment, education, and career planning; money
management; life skills training; relationship mediation; monthly gift cards for groceries and
transportation; emancipation funds available upon high school graduation; optional matched
personal savings program; and parenting skill-building for residents with children.

BUDGET & TIMELINE
Casa de Amparo respectfully requests $100,000.00 to improve the parking lot at our San Marcos,
CA campus. The project will include asphalt replacement and landscaping in the parking lot. This
capital investment will enable our program participants and staff to use the parking lot more safely,
and it will offer the campus a more welcoming aesthetic upon participants' arrival. Following the
receipt of three project quotes from local vendors by the end of June 2024, Casa de Amparo will
select one vendor to begin and complete the project. The estimated cost of the project will include
initial site assessment and planning, preparing the parking lot for the necessary improvements,
replacement of the entire parking lot's asphalt, and landscaping in and around the area. We aim to
have the project completed by the end of Fall 2024. Once complete, and with proper care and
maintenance, the new parking lot is expected to last at least 25-30 years.

CRC has completed everything necessary to initiate the project because the 2024-25 project will be a continuation of the successful, 2023-24 COBG program which served 9 households:
• CRC has an office in Carlsbad with resident staff providing case management services to Carlsbad residents
• CRC partners with affordable housing complexes in Carlsbad including La Costa Paloma, Cassia Heights, Hunter's Point, Glen Ridge, Laurel Tree, and Mariposa Apartments, providing outreach to low-income househok:ls and receiving referrals
from apartment managers for households that are struggling to pay rent
• CRC provides economically vulnerable low-income households with food programs, financial literacy and employment assistance, intensive case management, and other social services that help families remain stably housed
• CRC has an ongoing Rapid Rehousing program with the City of Car1sbad
• CRC has a resale store in Carlsbad available to Car1sbad residents. Participants receive household essentials and quality clothing. The community at large contributes to the efforts to support Carlsbad residents
Project term will be 7/1/24 through 6/30/25.
In full alignment with the City's updated Homeless Action Plan priority to develop and maintain the city's capacity to prevent and reduce homelessness, CRC will serve 25
economically vulnerable households in Carlsbad, including domestic violence (DV) survivors and their children, who are at imminent risk of experiencing homelessness -
in danger of losing their primary nighttime residence and lacking the resources or support networks needed to stabilize their housing, prioritizing seniors, veterans, and
families based on each household's need. Available assistance includes assessment to determine utility of diversion as an initial strategy, rental arrears, late fees,
landlord mediation/advocacy, one-time rental assistance, security deposits, utility deposij or arrears, bridge housing motel vouchers (to bridge gap between housing to
housing), employment assistance (transportation), or assistance with other costs related to household's ability to prevent homelessness.
Carlsbad residents have remote access through CRC's online client assistance portal or via telephonic or in person
appointments with case managers at CRC's office in Carlsbad. The office is accessible by bus or other public
transportation. CRC also offers mobile case management in which case managers travel to the client's location.
The special needs populations that CRC serves are individuals and families experiencing homelessness or at risk of imminent homelessness, including those escaping domestic violence.
• CRC provides ongoing food distribution and optional case management to seniors in the community. The majority of participants have at least one trauma-induced barrier to self-sufficiency and wellness sueh as substance abuse or mental health issues.
• Case Managers work. with clients to address identified barriers.
• Staff regularly receive training on how to provide culturally competent services for the underserved populations CRC serves.
• Services are available in Spanish, to better serve the Hispanio'Latino population, which comprises approximately 39% of CRC's clients.
Low-and moderate-income residents of Carlsbad will benefit from CRC's proposed Homeless Prevention program by helping them overcome personal, economic, health and social justice barriers that threaten their ability to maintain their hOusing and avoid experiencing
homelessness. The median price to rent a home greaUy exceeds median family income and disproportionately impacts women and people of color. The barrier is greater for those experiencing homelessness or at imminent risk of homelessness. Approximately 13.3% of the
county's 3.3 million population have incomes below poverty level and spend nearly 70% of their income on rent. (2-1-1 San Diego 211SD).
The project will benefit and serve low-income, economically insecure Carlsbad residents who are at risk of experiencing homelessness, including survivors of domestic violence (DV). CRC's services directly focus on the City's Consolidated Plan priority to prevent and reduce
homelessness by providing homeless prevention services to Carlsbad individuals and families who are on the verge of experiencing homelessness. These prevention activities will include client financial assistance, case management or counseling efforts that will result in
Carlsbad residents obtaining or maintaining permanent housing.

• 80% of the total number of households who participate in integrative case management services will work with a case manager to develop a personalized self-sufficiency plan focused on eliminating barriers to self-sufficiency.
CRC uses the software Efforts to Outcomes (ETO) to track individual and programmatic progress. CRC developed key perfonnance indicators (KPI) for the organization and each program including Social Services Homeless
Prevention. CRC's Data Specialist collaborates with program staff to develop program perfonnance metrics, trains staff how to collect data, and provides analysis for reporting and evaluation.
CRC works closely with Carlsbad's faith-based community through the Interfaith Shelter Network for which Pilgrim Church and Christ
Presbyterian in La Costa serve as winter shelters. As noted earlier, CRC partners with affordable housing complexes in Carlsbad including
La Costa Paloma, Cassia Heights, Hunter's Point, Glen Ridge, Laurel Tree and Mariposa Apartments, providing outreach to low-income
households and receiving referrals from apartment managers for households that are struggling to pay rent. CRC also works
collaboratively with La Posada, Interfaith Community Services and the City of Carlsbad.

2024 Carlsbad CDBG Executive Summary
Community Resource Center (CRC) will provide Homeless Prevention services and supportive
social services for individuals residing in Carlsbad, including domestic violence (DV) survivors and
their children and victims of crime or abuse. Homeless Prevention assistance is for Carlsbad
households at imminent risk of homelessness - in danger of losing their primary nighttime residence
and lacking the resources or support networks needed to stabilize their housing, prioritizing seniors,
veterans, and families, based on each household’s need. Available assistance includes assessment
to determine utility of Diversion as an initial strategy, rental or utility arrears, late fees, landlord
mediation/advocacy, one- time rental assistance, security or utility deposits, bridge housing motel
vouchers (to bridge gap between housing to housing), employment assistance (transportation), or
assistance with other costs related to household’s ability to prevent homelessness. CRC does not
charge fees to participants for any of the services described.
CRC will assist 25 Carlsbad residents with Homeless Prevention services and supportive social
services. CRC estimates the annual program cost for direct assistance per client is in the range of
$1,000 to $3,000, depending on client need. This year, the City provided substantial funds for
homeless intervention (Carlsbad Rapid Rehousing) together with CDBG funds for homeless
prevention. This request will fill a funding gap for homeless prevention assistance and is fully
aligned with the City’s Homeless Action Plan strategic priority to develop and maintain the City’s
capacity to prevent and reduce homelessness and its impacts on the community (emphasis
added).

Attachment -Project/Program Information
Please provide implementation schedule for proposed project or program, including
important steps such as hiring staff, obtaining bids, acquiring property, etc. If project involves
property acquisition or construction, include plans, scope of work, cost estimates, or other
applicable documents in appendices.
Because we are an established fair housing program, LASSO already has policies and staff in
place to ensure quality services are timely completed underthis contract. We have experienced,
existing staff ready to begin providing services immediately upon execution and start of the
contract.
In the first quarter, LASSO will review these policies and confirm systems and plans are in place
to ensure grant deliverables are completed in a timely manner throughout the grant year.
The Managing Attorney and Accounting Department will provide progress reports to the City on
a quarterly basis. LASSO will be able to measure program effectiveness and timeliness by
tracking and ensuring completion of deliverable goals in a manner that is both efficient and high
quality. Regular review of progress will allow the program to redirect staff time and efforts if
necessary to meet or exceed all contract requirements.
Describe steps already completed or to be completed to initiate project. These may include
community support, staffing, securing an appropriate location, marketing, and networking.
As previously stated, LASSO currently operates a high-quality fair housing program that
conducts the activities proposed under the grant and is therefore ready to initiate the project
immediately. We have three offices throughout San Diego County, including one in North
County in San Marcos. LASSO regularly conducts outreach and training and will be able to
seamlessly continue those ongoing efforts. Similarly, our testing program is already established
and staffed with experienced testing coordinators that can begin testing activities immediately.
Finally, we are already staffed with several experienced advocates and attorneys that can
continue providing direct client services.
Describe the program's timeline with dates and times, including the earliest possible start
dates, end dates, and milestones as applicable.
Quarterly reports will provide the City with updates on progress toward required deliverables,
which will be completed between July 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025.

Describe the work to be performed, including the activities to be undertaken or the services
to be provided and the goals and objectives of the program/project:
LASSD will provide comprehensive legal services regarding Fair Housing, including education and
outreach services; testing services; referral, counsel, advice, and brief services; and
representation for enforcement offed era I and state fair housing laws. The goals and objectives
of the program are to increase community knowledge on fair housing rights and obligations,
investigate and combat housing discrimination, and enforce fair housing laws.
How accessible or convenient is the proposed program/project to Carlsbad residents? (Please
be specific such as direct services to client's home, transportation provided to and from
facility, or relation to public transportation.)
LASSD's North County office is located at 100 E. San Marcos Blvd., San Marcos, CA 92069. Walk-
ins are welcome and we are open Monday through Friday (except holidays) from 9am-Spm. The
office is ADA compliant and is located along a major public transit line. In addition, we
accommodate clients in various ways, including by offering site visits to clients' homes or other
convenient locations or phone or web-cam appointments. The Fair Housing Team also has a
Case Manager that can connect clients to other services, such as free or affordable
transportation services.
Does your agency focus its activities on populations with special needs? If yes, please specify
population (Homeless households, persons with disabilities, persons with substance abuse,
veterans, farmworkers, seniors, children, etc.)
LASSD's Fair Housing Team provides free assistance to anyone that feels they have experienced
housing discrimination or has landlord-tenant questions. As such, many of our clients are
members of protected classes and vulnerable populations. For example, many clients we serve
have mental or physical disabilities and an overwhelming majority are low income. Our staff are
trauma-informed and trained to help applicants and clients overcome would-be barriers to
service. We regularly conduct outreach through Homeless Court and we assist people living in
homelessness to utilize their fair housing rights to strengthen their ability to gain stable housing.
We also work to prevent homelessness by enforcing fair housing laws to keep people housed.
Currently, we have HUD Education and Outreach Initiative grants focused on expanding fair
housing knowledge and enforcement for recipients of rental assistance and members of the
LGBTQ+ community.
Please describe how low-and-moderate income persons will benefit from the proposed
program/project.

An overwhelming majority of the clients we assist are low or extremely low income. Such
persons face additional obstacles to finding and maintaining housing, making them more
susceptible to discrimination and housing instability. Our services provide free legal support to
those individuals to empower them to asserttheirfair housing rights to help maintain safe and
stable housing.
How does your organization provide language access to recipients with less than proficient
English?
For clients and community members that have Limited English Proficiency {LEP), LASSD has staff
that speak nearly all of the threshold languages for San Diego County {Spanish, Vietnamese,
Arabic, Tagalog, Chinese). In addition, forth is project specifically, LASSD's Fair Housing program
has multiple staff members that are fluent in Spanish and one staff member that speaks Marathi
and Hindi. LASSD tests and tracks staff that speak threshold languages in the County.
LASSD's phone system provides options for English and Spanish. Applicants and clients who visit
our office locations can use language cards to indicate their language needs. In addition, LASSD
contracts with multiple third-party translation services to ensure all applicants and clients can
fully access our services regardless of LEP status. LASSD uses Voiance, which provides 24/7
phone translation service in all languages and is pre-programmed on each staff member's
phone to ensure easy access. Also, LASSD contracts with another translation service, ALTA, for
written translations. For clients who use American Sign Language {ASL), LASSD has staff that can
communicate using ASL and LASSD uses either ALTA or a Deaf Access Program, Deaf Community
Services of San Diego, Inc., for interpreter services.
How will recipients' information be collected and documented?
LASSD utilizes JusticeServer, a comprehensive case management system, which captures,
maintains, and shares data. JusticeServer captures data necessary for quarterly reports, such as
applicant income, demographic data, complaint basis, case notes, and resolution.
How will the outcomes be measured, collected, and documented?
LASSD measures outcomes in various ways, including with JusticeServer, a comprehensive data
management system, which captures, maintains, and shares data; and assists LASSD in
managing the output and outcomes of program deliverables for the project. JusticeServer
captures data necessary for quarterly reports, and grant progress and quarterly reports are
securely stored on SharePoint/Teams which allows staff to review, share, and update their
progress.

Describe collaboration with other agencies, such as the County Continuum of Care and other
non-profit organizations and/or agencies to form a cohesive approach in serving the low
income and most vulnerable populations.
LASSD has provided free legal services to San Diego County for over a century. As such, we have
deep ties to the community and meaningful partnerships with other agencies. For example,
LASSD is part of the San Diego Eviction Prevention Collaborative, which is a network of non-
profit agencies providing housing services throughout the County. The purpose of the
Collaborative is to maximize resources and streamline referrals to and from collaborative
partners, and to ensure partners are up-to-date with substantive legal developments.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In addition to your Community Development Block Grant funding application, please complete
the following supplemental questionnaire.
THEME: A theme was not selected for this funding year. Preference will be given to the applications
which specifically address the Consolidated Plan Priorities, however applications for unrelated services
are eligible for submission.
ORGANIZATION: Legal Aid Society of San Diego
1. In 250 words or less, please describehow your organizationwill be using the requested
funds.
Fair Housing team is comprised of highly skilled attorneys, advocates, and
testing coordinators with expertise in fair housing laws. We will use the funds to ensure
that meritorious fair housing claims are investigated and the appropriate enforcement
path is chosen when necessary. All deliverables will be accomplished between July 1,
2024, and June 30, 2025.
LASSD will investigate alleged violations of federal, state, and local discrimination laws
using standard fair housing investigative methodology. After there has been a
determination that a claim is meritorious, LASSD will gather facts, witnesses,
documents, and develop respondent profiles. Other investigative methodologies include
surveys and interviews of in-place tenants, interviews of past tenants, and testing.
LASSD will provide information and referrals on non-fair housinglandlord-tenant issues.
After a case is accepted for enforcement, LASSD will explain all enforcement options to
the client and will work with the client to determine which is best for their situation,
which may include conciliation, administrative proceedings, or litigation.
Additionally, a key aspect of the fair housing program is comprehensive outreach and
education to the public regarding fair housing protections and obligations. LASSD will
use the funds to support and expand outreach efforts to provide high quality fair
housing education to the Carlsbad community, including tenants, homeowners, housing
providers, community organizations, and City staff.
Finally, the fair housing team administers an expansive fair housing testing program to
identify other instances of discrimination that may otherwise go undetected.

The key staff responsible for this project are Janeth Castaneda, testing coordinator;
Fabiola Bautista, advocate; and Gauri Bhirud, staff attorney. Additionally, Managing
Attorney, Amalea Romero, will provide oversight to the project and serve as point of
contact for the City.
2. Attach a budget showing the specific line-item breakdown on how you arrived at the
funding request.
Please see attached.
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?
The minimum amount required to advance the program is $25,000. If we do not
receive the entire funding request it will not be possible to provide all the current fair
housing services we provide in Carlsbad. If we do not receive the entire funding request
it may also jeopardize our other North County Fair Housing contracts since LASSD
leverages these funds to staff our fair housing team.
4. Does your organization charge a fee for accessing your services or supplies? If so,
please describe the rational for this fee.
No.
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?
Not applicable.
6. If your funding is approved, how many Carlsbad residents will you be able to assist?

LASSD is on track to assist over 146 Carlsbad residents this year and expects that
demand for fair housing services will only increase with rising cost of living and
continuing effects from the pandemic. LASSD anticipates assisting 146 Carlsbad
residents in the upcoming year if we receive the entire funding request.

The shelter provides three meals daily and a packed lunch to participants working in agriculture fields throughout the day. La Posada's goal starts with addressing these seemingly small but impactful goals. Feeling clean and having a nutritious meal leads to a good night's rest, which leads lo our residents feeling refreshed and safe, leading to discussions on how they became unsheltered, the goats they want to achieve, and how we can help them get to the future they see themselves. La Posada intends to assist unsheltered single men in San Diego County exit homelessness with the tools and resources lo remain independent and self-sufficient.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In addition to your Community Development Block Grant funding application, please complete
the following supplemental questionnaire.
→THEME: A theme was not selected for this funding year. Preference will be given to the applications
which specifically address the Consolidated Plan Priorities however applications for unrelated services
are eligible for submission.
ORGANIZATION:
1. In 250 words or less, please describe how your organization will be using the
requested funds.
Catholic Charities Diocese of San Diego (CCDSD) will use the requested funds in our
CDBG Carlsbad application to offset La Posada staff salaries, supplies, utilities, and food
purchased for the residents. The salaries for employees at La Posada are one of the
most significant expenses; the staff consists of trauma-informed case managers who
provide the best resources for the residents staying at La Posada. The shelter is open
24/7, with 50 beds for men experiencing homelessness and 50 beds for farmworkers,
and it needs to be staffed around the clock to support the residents.
2. Attach an Excel budget showing the specific line-item breakdown on how you arrived
at the funding request.
Please see the Attached Excel Budget.
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?
CCDSD is working diligently to find new funding sources to support our homeless shelter
programs. La Posada has been running in a deficit. Due to this deficit, the Finance
Department has been working with the Director of Homeless Services and the manager
to look at the budget line items and take a deeper look, analyzing the expenses and
where the program can cut costs. The Board overseeing CCDSD has also monitored the
homeless shelters and programs. Unfortunately, the only option to significantly change
the budget is to reduce beds at La Posada. This is something that the organization takes
very seriously. The need for shelters and services to help people experiencing
May 7, 2024 Item #7 Page 130 of 167

homelessness only increases every year. The cost of running the shelter also increases
as utilities alone have significantly increased this year.
The mission of CCDSD is to shelter the homeless; therefore, as an organization, we are
doing everything we can to increase funding and support for the shelter. We recently
partnered with the City of Carlsbad to possibly expand the shelter and increase the
physical size of La Posada to accommodate more shelter beds. This will allow us to
increase the number of people experiencing homelessness we can help by providing
shelter for women and children. The team at CCDSD is working on finding additional
funding sources and has begun planning the expansion. With the expansion, the budget
for La Posada will also increase, almost tripling to provide the best services and staff to
run the program.
Currently, the per-bed cost at Catholic Charities is $72. The two primary funding sources
for La Posada are currently CDBG grants and our partnership with Alliance for Reginal
Solutions. The funding provided is $8.64 per bed. This drastic difference is one of the
reasons La Posada is in a deficit situation.
Another unique partnership CCDSD is currently working with is Valdivia Farms. Valdivia
Farms was founded in 2017 and is a farm of fruits and vegetables. Valdivia Farms
partnered with CCDSD in 2022 to provide shelter for some farmworkers working at the
farm. This partnership provides a small income for La Posada, helping offset the cost of
the 50 beds on the farmworker’s shelter site. Valdivia Farms also provides economic
support to the City of Carlsbad, and we are excited to be working with an organization
that supports the community.
Catholic Charities understands that the need to provide shelter and services to
individuals experiencing homelessness is critical in San Diego. We will continue to
provide the services we are capable of and work to expand these services to help more
individuals. We are very proud that 40% of the men who come to La Posada leave our
shelter for permanent housing. The hope is that our success rate will help attract other
funding and support for the shelter.
4. Does your organization charge a fee for accessing your services or supplies? If so,
please describe the rational for this fee.
Catholic Charities does not charge a fee for accessing our services.
5. Will the funding of this program with a CDBG grant allows 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 funding for La Posada from the CDBG grant possibly being used as a matching grant
for another organization is something that our Philanthropy Department is looking into.
Currently, the focus is finding other public and private grants to support La Posada, and
they do not need a match. The team is exhausting all avenues for financial support of La
Posada and will continue to look for new opportunities.
6. If your funding is approved, how many Carlsbad residents will you be able to assist?
When funding is approved, Catholic Charities estimates that we will be able to help 90
Carlsbad residents experiencing homelessness.

Casa de Amparo | FY 2024/2025 CDBG Application for City of Carlsbad 1
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Founded in 1978 by a local San Diego County group of women concerned about domestic violence and the welfare of children, Casa de Amparo envisions a community where child abuse and neglect are not tolerated, and where child abuse awareness and prevention are priorities. As a major force in the field of child abuse prevention, we partner with the greater San Diego community and
beyond to ensure that children and their families receive unique and innovative services for healing, for stopping child mistreatment of any kind, and for ending generational cycles of abuse. With the mission to support those affected by and at risk of child abuse and neglect through a range of programs and services that promote healing, growth, and healthy relationships, Casa de Amparo delivers services via two primary programs: Residential Services and New Directions, as well as
provides supplementary therapeutic programming and activities for all youth served.
As a California Community Care Licensed Short-Term Residential Therapeutic Program (STRTP), our Residential Services program provides trauma-informed, intensive residential care to youth dependents of Child Welfare Services and wards from county probation. The program serves youth and adolescents ages 12–18 from various ethnic backgrounds, as well as homeless and LGBTQIA youth and youth with disabilities, who have been impacted by Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES) and trauma, including severe neglect, domestic violence, gang activity, substance abuse, and/or exposure to violence in the community. Additionally, we serve girls with special health care needs, who are pregnant and/or parenting, and/or involved in or at risk of
involvement in commercial sexual exploitation (CSE). This component of the program provides
the girls with a designated space to experience pregnancy and motherhood in home-like cottages
separate from our other on-site residential cottages. We provide 24-hour supervised care for all residents, including medical treatment, meals, transportation, recreation, counseling, life skills (including money management) and social skills development, education coordination, and case management.
Our New Directions transitional housing program serves adolescents and young adults ages 18–
25 who are transitioning from the foster care system, including those who are pregnant and/or parenting, and equips them with the necessary skills and resources to successfully transition to independent living. Supports include intensive case management; stable housing with subsidized rent (off-site from Casa de Amparo’s campus); furnishings and basic necessities; support for
overall medical and mental health; employment, education, and career planning; money management; life skills training; relationship mediation; monthly gift cards for groceries and transportation; emancipation funds available upon high school graduation; optional matched personal savings program; and parenting skill-building for residents with children.

Casa de Amparo | FY 2024/2025 CDBG Application for City of Carlsbad 2
KEY STAFF Mike Barnett, BA, Chief Executive Officer has been in office since March 2022. He has over 30
years of professional experience in the public and private sectors. Barnett was commissioned as a San Diego County deputy sheriff in 1992 and rose through the ranks, leading teams of all sizes across multiple disciplines. In 2017 he was appointed as the Sheriff’s chief deputy and second-in-command. As the Undersheriff he commanded the 4,500-employee organization with a budget of
just under $1 billion. He oversaw the medical and mental health care needs of thousands of people
in county institutions and was responsible for providing the full scope of police services to almost one million people in San Diego County. He was also responsible for providing regional support including jail and courts systems, a nationally accredited crime laboratory, along with aviation, and emergency services to the San Diego region. He is passionate about our mission and previously served on the board of Casa de Amparo. Mike is a graduate of San Diego State University.
Gerardo Gonzales holds Casa de Amparo’s Maintenance Supervisor position and is responsible for the comprehensive oversight of the maintenance department, leading a team and managing various tasks to ensure the organization's facilities and equipment are well-maintained. This includes
directing and evaluating maintenance staff, overseeing project management and delegation of
assignments, monitoring vendors' compliance with agency policies, serving as the agency Safety Officer, and ensuring adherence to regulations and standards. Gonzales also coordinates emergency response efforts, manages maintenance project budget and expenditures, schedules and executes maintenance tasks, collaborates with various departments for special events, and ensures the completion of checklists for facilities, equipment, kitchen, vehicles, and preventive
maintenance. Additionally, Gonzales oversees grounds maintenance, monitors water systems, coordinates resident apartment repairs, and ensures compliance with local agreements and regulations. Regular participation in meetings and collaboration with volunteers are also part of Gonzales’ role.
BUDGET & TIMELINE Casa de Amparo respectfully requests $100,000.00 to improve the parking lot at our San Marcos, CA campus. The project will include asphalt replacement and landscaping in the parking lot. This capital investment will enable our program participants and staff to use the parking lot more safely, and it will offer the campus a more welcoming aesthetic upon participants’ arrival. Following the
receipt of three project quotes from local vendors by the end of June 2024, Casa de Amparo will select one vendor to begin and complete the project. The estimated cost of the project will include initial site assessment and planning, preparing the parking lot for the necessary improvements, replacement of the entire parking lot’s asphalt, and landscaping in and around the area. We aim to
have the project completed by the end of Fall 2024. Once complete, and with proper care and
maintenance, the new parking lot is expected to last at least 25–30 years.

% of clients are between 51 and 80 percent of the area median income
% of clients are above 80 percent of the area median income
CRC has completed everything necessary to initiate the project because the 2024-25 project will be a continuation of the successful, 2023-24 CDBG program which served 9 households:
• CRC has an office in Carlsbad with resident staff providing case management services to Carlsbad residents
• CRC partners with affordable housing complexes in Carlsbad including La Costa Paloma, Cassia Heights, Hunter’s Point, Glen Ridge, Laurel Tree, and Mariposa Apartments, providing outreach to low-income households and receiving referrals
from apartment managers for households that are struggling to pay rent
• CRC provides economically vulnerable low-income households with food programs, financial literacy and employment assistance, intensive case management, and other social services that help families remain stably housed
• CRC has an ongoing Rapid Rehousing program with the City of Carlsbad
• CRC has a resale store in Carlsbad available to Carlsbad residents. Participants receive household essentials and quality clothing. The community at large contributes to the efforts to support Carlsbad residents
Project term will be 7/1/24 through 6/30/25.
In full alignment with the City’s updated Homeless Action Plan priority to develop and maintain the city’s capacity to prevent and reduce homelessness, CRC will serve 25
economically vulnerable households in Carlsbad, including domestic violence (DV) survivors and their children, who are at imminent risk of experiencing homelessness -
in danger of losing their primary nighttime residence and lacking the resources or support networks needed to stabilize their housing, prioritizing seniors, veterans, and
families based on each household’s need. Available assistance includes assessment to determine utility of diversion as an initial strategy, rental arrears, late fees,
landlord mediation/advocacy, one-time rental assistance, security deposits, utility deposit or arrears, bridge housing motel vouchers (to bridge gap between housing to
housing), employment assistance (transportation), or assistance with other costs related to household’s ability to prevent homelessness.
Carlsbad residents have remote access through CRC’s online client assistance portal or via telephonic or in person
appointments with case managers at CRC’s office in Carlsbad. The office is accessible by bus or other public
transportation. CRC also offers mobile case management in which case managers travel to the client’s location.
The special needs populations that CRC serves are individuals and families experiencing homelessness or at risk of imminent homelessness, including those escaping domestic violence.
• CRC provides ongoing food distribution and optional case management to seniors in the community. The majority of participants have at least one trauma-induced barrier to self- sufficiency and wellness such as substance abuse or mental health issues.
• Case Managers work with clients to address identified barriers.
• Staff regularly receive training on how to provide culturally competent services for the underserved populations CRC serves.
• Services are available in Spanish, to better serve the Hispanic/Latino population, which comprises approximately 39% of CRC’s clients.
Low- and moderate-income residents of Carlsbad will benefit from CRC’s proposed Homeless Prevention program by helping them overcome personal, economic, health and social justice barriers that threaten their ability to maintain their housing and avoid experiencing
homelessness. The median price to rent a home greatly exceeds median family income and disproportionately impacts women and people of color. The barrier is greater for those experiencing homelessness or at imminent risk of homelessness. Approximately 13.3% of the
county’s 3.3 million population have incomes below poverty level and spend nearly 70% of their income on rent. (2-1-1 San Diego 211SD).
The project will benefit and serve low-income, economically insecure Carlsbad residents who are at risk of experiencing homelessness, including survivors of domestic violence (DV). CRC’s services directly focus on the City’s Consolidated Plan priority to prevent and reduce
homelessness by providing homeless prevention services to Carlsbad individuals and families who are on the verge of experiencing homelessness. These prevention activities will include client financial assistance, case management or counseling efforts that will result in
Carlsbad residents obtaining or maintaining permanent housing.

Services including homelessness prevention, social services and the Food & Nutrition Center are offered in English and Spanish to better serve the Hispanic/Latino population which comprises
approximately 39% of the client population. If services are needed in additional languages, staff have access to translation assistance through AT&T USA Direct In-Language Service, Google Translate,
711-TTY for participants who are hearing impaired (although we have a staff member that speaks American Sign Language), and License to Freedom, a San Diego County non-profit organization that
serves immigrant DV survivors and offers translation assistance in numerous languages. CRC provides timely, meaningful access to all agency programs and activities for Limited English Proficient
(LEP) persons.
CRC collects and documents beneficiary information using an intake form and documents
provided by the client in person or by using CRC’s secure online client portal.
The metrics and measurements for Homeless Prevention services are:
• 100% of individuals who receive prevention assistance will be offered access to CRC’s case management services, financial independence counseling or housing search assistance.
• 85% of all housing participants retain or exit to permanent housing at case closure.
• 80% of the total number of households who participate in integrative case management services will work with a case manager to develop a personalized self-sufficiency plan focused on eliminating barriers to self-sufficiency.
CRC uses the software Efforts to Outcomes (ETO) to track individual and programmatic progress. CRC developed key performance indicators (KPI) for the organization and each program including Social Services Homeless
Prevention. CRC's Data Specialist collaborates with program staff to develop program performance metrics, trains staff how to collect data, and provides analysis for reporting and evaluation.
CRC works closely with Carlsbad's faith-based community through the Interfaith Shelter Network for which Pilgrim Church and Christ
Presbyterian in La Costa serve as winter shelters. As noted earlier, CRC partners with affordable housing complexes in Carlsbad including
La Costa Paloma, Cassia Heights, Hunter’s Point, Glen Ridge, Laurel Tree and Mariposa Apartments, providing outreach to low-income
households and receiving referrals from apartment managers for households that are struggling to pay rent. CRC also works
collaboratively with La Posada, Interfaith Community Services and the City of Carlsbad.

2024 Carlsbad CDBG Executive Summary
Community Resource Center (CRC) will provide Homeless Prevention services and supportive
social services for individuals residing in Carlsbad, including domestic violence (DV) survivors and
their children and victims of crime or abuse. Homeless Prevention assistance is for Carlsbad
households at imminent risk of homelessness - in danger of losing their primary nighttime residence
and lacking the resources or support networks needed to stabilize their housing, prioritizing seniors,
veterans, and families, based on each household’s need. Available assistance includes assessment
to determine utility of Diversion as an initial strategy, rental or utility arrears, late fees, landlord
mediation/advocacy, one- time rental assistance, security or utility deposits, bridge housing motel
vouchers (to bridge gap between housing to housing), employment assistance (transportation), or
assistance with other costs related to household’s ability to prevent homelessness. CRC does not
charge fees to participants for any of the services described.
CRC will assist 25 Carlsbad residents with Homeless Prevention services and supportive social
services. CRC estimates the annual program cost for direct assistance per client is in the range of
$1,000 to $3,000, depending on client need. This year, the City provided substantial funds for
homeless intervention (Carlsbad Rapid Rehousing) together with CDBG funds for homeless
prevention. This request will fill a funding gap for homeless prevention assistance and is fully
aligned with the City’s Homeless Action Plan strategic priority to develop and maintain the City’s
capacity to prevent and reduce homelessness and its impacts on the community (emphasis
added).
Please see the attached Homeless Prevention Project Budget – Program Budget HP nC Carlsbad
CDBG 24.pdf. CRC will use CDBG funds provided by the City of Carlsbad to supplement or expand
services. CRC does not have other funds for the proposed services but can scale the number of
Carlsbad residents served to the amount awarded. CRC will continue to expand its presence in
Carlsbad and continue its other activities for Carlsbad residents.
CRC has not identified any matching funding. If Carlsbad CDBG funds are granted, CRC may be
able to identify the granted funds as a match for other grants where applicable, increasing the
leverage and value of each grant.

Executive Summary
Project Overview:
Interfaith Community Services (Interfaith) respectfully requests $72,654 to provide critical community
services at its Carlsbad Service Center to address priorities identified by the City of Carlsbad to benefit
low-and moderate-income persons. Services will include homelessness prevention and housing

Attachment – Project/Program Information
Please provide implementation schedule for proposed project or program, including
important steps such as hiring staff, obtaining bids, acquiring property, etc. If project involves
property acquisition or construction, include plans, scope of work, cost estimates, or other
applicable documents in appendices.
Because we are an established fair housing program, LASSD already has policies and staff in
place to ensure quality services are timely completed under this contract. We have experienced,
existing staff ready to begin providing services immediately upon execution and start of the
contract.
In the first quarter, LASSD will review these policies and confirm systems and plans are in place
to ensure grant deliverables are completed in a timely manner throughout the grant year.
The Managing Attorney and Accounting Department will provide progress reports to the City on
a quarterly basis. LASSD will be able to measure program effectiveness and timeliness by
tracking and ensuring completion of deliverable goals in a manner that is both efficient and high
quality. Regular review of progress will allow the program to redirect staff time and efforts if
necessary to meet or exceed all contract requirements.
Describe steps already completed or to be completed to initiate project. These may include
community support, staffing, securing an appropriate location, marketing, and networking.
As previously stated, LASSD currently operates a high-quality fair housing program that
conducts the activities proposed under the grant and is therefore ready to initiate the project
immediately. We have three offices throughout San Diego County, including one in North
County in San Marcos. LASSD regularly conducts outreach and training and will be able to
seamlessly continue those ongoing efforts. Similarly, our testing program is already established
and staffed with experienced testing coordinators that can begin testing activities immediately.
Finally, we are already staffed with several experienced advocates and attorneys that can
continue providing direct client services.
Describe the program’s timeline with dates and times, including the earliest possible start
dates, end dates, and milestones as applicable.
Quarterly reports will provide the City with updates on progress toward required deliverables,
which will be completed between July 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025.
May 7, 2024 Item #7 Page 160 of 167
Legal Aid Society of San Diego
Describe the work to be performed, including the activities to be undertaken or the services
to be provided and the goals and objectives of the program/project:
LASSD will provide comprehensive legal services regarding Fair Housing, including education and
outreach services; testing services; referral, counsel, advice, and brief services; and
representation for enforcement of federal and state fair housing laws. The goals and objectives
of the program are to increase community knowledge on fair housing rights and obligations,
investigate and combat housing discrimination, and enforce fair housing laws.
How accessible or convenient is the proposed program/project to Carlsbad residents? (Please
be specific such as direct services to client’s home, transportation provided to and from
facility, or relation to public transportation.)
LASSD’s North County office is located at 100 E. San Marcos Blvd., San Marcos, CA 92069. Walk-
ins are welcome and we are open Monday through Friday (except holidays) from 9am–5pm. The
office is ADA compliant and is located along a major public transit line. In addition, we
accommodate clients in various ways, including by offering site visits to clients’ homes or other
convenient locations or phone or web-cam appointments. The Fair Housing Team also has a
Case Manager that can connect clients to other services, such as free or affordable
transportation services.
Does your agency focus its activities on populations with special needs? If yes, please specify
population (Homeless households, persons with disabilities, persons with substance abuse,
veterans, farmworkers, seniors, children, etc.)
LASSD’s Fair Housing Team provides free assistance to anyone that feels they have experienced
housing discrimination or has landlord-tenant questions. As such, many of our clients are
members of protected classes and vulnerable populations. For example, many clients we serve
have mental or physical disabilities and an overwhelming majority are low income. Our staff are
trauma-informed and trained to help applicants and clients overcome would-be barriers to
service. We regularly conduct outreach through Homeless Court and we assist people living in
homelessness to utilize their fair housing rights to strengthen their ability to gain stable housing.
We also work to prevent homelessness by enforcing fair housing laws to keep people housed.
Currently, we have HUD Education and Outreach Initiative grants focused on expanding fair
housing knowledge and enforcement for recipients of rental assistance and members of the
LGBTQ+ community.
Please describe how low-and-moderate income persons will benefit from the proposed
program/project.
May 7, 2024 Item #7 Page 161 of 167
Legal Aid Society of San Diego
An overwhelming majority of the clients we assist are low or extremely low income. Such
persons face additional obstacles to finding and maintaining housing, making them more
susceptible to discrimination and housing instability. Our services provide free legal support to
those individuals to empower them to assert their fair housing rights to help maintain safe and
stable housing.
How does your organization provide language access to recipients with less than proficient
English?
For clients and community members that have Limited English Proficiency (LEP), LASSD has staff
that speak nearly all of the threshold languages for San Diego County (Spanish, Vietnamese,
Arabic, Tagalog, Chinese). In addition, for this project specifically, LASSD’s Fair Housing program
has multiple staff members that are fluent in Spanish and one staff member that speaks Marathi
and Hindi. LASSD tests and tracks staff that speak threshold languages in the County.
LASSD’s phone system provides options for English and Spanish. Applicants and clients who visit
our office locations can use language cards to indicate their language needs. In addition, LASSD
contracts with multiple third-party translation services to ensure all applicants and clients can
fully access our services regardless of LEP status. LASSD uses Voiance, which provides 24/7
phone translation service in all languages and is pre-programmed on each staff member’s
phone to ensure easy access. Also, LASSD contracts with another translation service, ALTA, for
written translations. For clients who use American Sign Language (ASL), LASSD has staff that can
communicate using ASL and LASSD uses either ALTA or a Deaf Access Program, Deaf Community
Services of San Diego, Inc., for interpreter services.
How will recipients’ information be collected and documented?
LASSD utilizes JusticeServer, a comprehensive case management system, which captures,
maintains, and shares data. JusticeServer captures data necessary for quarterly reports, such as
applicant income, demographic data, complaint basis, case notes, and resolution.
How will the outcomes be measured, collected, and documented?
LASSD measures outcomes in various ways, including with JusticeServer, a comprehensive data
management system, which captures, maintains, and shares data; and assists LASSD in
managing the output and outcomes of program deliverables for the project. JusticeServer
captures data necessary for quarterly reports, and grant progress and quarterly reports are
securely stored on SharePoint/Teams which allows staff to review, share, and update their
progress.

Legal Aid Society of San Diego
Describe collaboration with other agencies, such as the County Continuum of Care and other
non-profit organizations and/or agencies to form a cohesive approach in serving the low
income and most vulnerable populations.
LASSD has provided free legal services to San Diego County for over a century. As such, we have
deep ties to the community and meaningful partnerships with other agencies. For example,
LASSD is part of the San Diego Eviction Prevention Collaborative, which is a network of non-
profit agencies providing housing services throughout the County. The purpose of the
Collaborative is to maximize resources and streamline referrals to and from collaborative
partners, and to ensure partners are up-to-date with substantive legal developments.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In addition to your Community Development Block Grant funding application, please complete
the following supplemental questionnaire.
→THEME: A theme was not selected for this funding year. Preference will be given to the applications
which specifically address the Consolidated Plan Priorities, however applications for unrelated services
are eligible for submission.
ORGANIZATION: Legal Aid Society of San Diego
1. In 250 words or less, please describe how your organization will be using the requested
funds.
LASSD’s Fair Housing team is comprised of highly skilled attorneys, advocates, and
testing coordinators with expertise in fair housing laws. We will use the funds to ensure
that meritorious fair housing claims are investigated and the appropriate enforcement
path is chosen when necessary. All deliverables will be accomplished between July 1,
2024, and June 30, 2025.
LASSD will investigate alleged violations of federal, state, and local discrimination laws
using standard fair housing investigative methodology. After there has been a
determination that a claim is meritorious, LASSD will gather facts, witnesses,
documents, and develop respondent profiles. Other investigative methodologies include
surveys and interviews of in-place tenants, interviews of past tenants, and testing.
LASSD will provide information and referrals on non-fair housing landlord-tenant issues.
After a case is accepted for enforcement, LASSD will explain all enforcement options to
the client and will work with the client to determine which is best for their situation,
which may include conciliation, administrative proceedings, or litigation.
Additionally, a key aspect of the fair housing program is comprehensive outreach and
education to the public regarding fair housing protections and obligations. LASSD will
use the funds to support and expand outreach efforts to provide high quality fair
housing education to the Carlsbad community, including tenants, homeowners, housing
providers, community organizations, and City staff.
Finally, the fair housing team administers an expansive fair housing testing program to
identify other instances of discrimination that may otherwise go undetected. LASSD’s
May 7, 2024 Item #7 Page 164 of 167
testing coordinators have significant expertise and maintain updated testing
methodologies for implementation of a high-quality testing program.
LASSD’s comprehensive fair housing services will increase and preserve affordable
housing opportunities for low- and moderate-income households by helping residents
overcome barriers to housing, such as discrimination against Section 8 recipients.
LASSD’s project will also prevent and reduce homelessness by ensuring that residents
are not denied housing or removed from their existing housing in violation of fair
housing laws, such as a landlord’s refusal to grant a reasonable accommodation that
would allow a person with a disability to remain in their home.
The key staff responsible for this project are Janeth Castaneda, testing coordinator;
Fabiola Bautista, advocate; and Gauri Bhirud, staff attorney. Additionally, Managing
Attorney, Amalea Romero, will provide oversight to the project and serve as point of
contact for the City.
2. Attach a budget showing the specific line-item breakdown on how you arrived at the
funding request.
Please see attached.
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?
The minimum amount required to advance the program is $25,000. If we do not
receive the entire funding request it will not be possible to provide all the current fair
housing services we provide in Carlsbad. If we do not receive the entire funding request
it may also jeopardize our other North County Fair Housing contracts since LASSD
leverages these funds to staff our fair housing team.
4. Does your organization charge a fee for accessing your services or supplies? If so,
please describe the rational for this fee.
No.
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?
Not applicable.
6. If your funding is approved, how many Carlsbad residents will you be able to assist?
May 7, 2024 Item #7 Page 165 of 167
LASSD is on track to assist over 146 Carlsbad residents this year and expects that
demand for fair housing services will only increase with rising cost of living and
continuing effects from the pandemic. LASSD anticipates assisting 146 Carlsbad
residents in the upcoming year if we receive the entire funding request.
