HUD for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds. The Action Plan
describes the activities to be implemented during the coming fiscal year. It also
provides a participatory process through which our citizens are given an
opportunity to determine, give input, and be informed about the projected use of
funds. More importantly, it is the tool which verifies and assists in the
implementation of the goals and strategies outlined in the Five -Year
Consolidated Plan to meet our City's housing and community development
needs.
Citizen Participation
City of Newport Beach Community and Economic Development staff is entrusted
by the City Council with the responsibility of reviewing all applications for CDBG
funding by social service agencies, and of making funding recommendations to
the City Council. On April 13, 2004, the City Council held a public hearing to
solicit input from the community and to review the various public services
proposals for the 2004 -2005 CDBG program year. The City Council's funding
decisions have been incorporated into the final Action Plan to be submitted to
HUD on or about May 26, 2004 for approval.
In addition, a draft version of the Action Plan was released for a 30 -day public
review and comment period beginning on April 1, 2004. All comments received
on the draft Action Plan will be summarized and included in the final Action Plan.
To date, no comments have been received.

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Overview of Consolidated Plan Process
Every year the City of Newport Beach receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds
from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The grant money is to primarily
benefit the lower income residents of the City in three ways:
• By providing decent housing
• By providing a suitable living environment
• By expanding economic opportunities
To ensure that the funds are used to meet the most urgent needs in the community, the City develops a
community needs assessment. The needs assessment includes quantitative and statistical research,
resident survey results, and input from local non - profits and service agencies. Based on the needs
assessment, the City compiles a list of goals and objectives to meet the community's needs in a Strategic
Plan. The objectives address housing, homeless, and other community development needs. A summary
of the current strategic plan is included in this Plan. Together, the community needs assessment and the
Strategic Plan form the Consolidated Plan. The Consolidated Plan is developed every five (5) years.
One -Year Action Plan for 2004 -2005 Program Year
This is the One -Year Action Plan for program year 2004 -2005. This document describes how the City will
utilize the new HUD grant funds and other available resources to undertake programs and projects that
will help the City meet the goals and objectives outlined in its Consolidated Plan.
In the 2004 -2005 program year, which starts July 1�, 2004 and ends June 301h , 2005, the City of Newport
Beach will receive $437,000 in CDBG Funds. In addition, $197,278 of CDBG funds from previous year
allocations are available for reallocation to capital expenditure projects. Overall, the City will allocate
$613,159 to the following programs:
• WISEPlace

CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ANNUAL ACTION PLAN FOR PROGRAM YEAR 2004 PAGE 2 -1 12
2. STRATEGIC PLAN
Newport Beach Program Objectives: Housing
1. Develop 139 units of senior housing
As stated in the Newport Beach Housing Element, the City's goal is to preserve and increase housing
affordability. The City set a target of adding 139 senior housing units in the Consolidated Plan. This
goal will be surpassed with the development of 150 units of senior housing at the Lower Bayview
Project. The City has provided $1,000,000 in subsidies and waived an additional $250,000 in fees.
The project has been approved by the Planning Commission and the City Council and is awaiting
approval from the Coastal Commission. The project is expected to be completed in the fall of 2004.
2. Maintain current level of Section 8 Voucher supply
Section 8 vouchers are rental assistance payments to owners of private market rate units on behalf of
very low- income tenants. This program allows the users to find their own housing which best suits
their needs. The City will continue to support this county administered program.
3. Ensure universal access to fair housing
The City is committed to ensuring the right to housing for all of its residents. Fair housing activities
undertaken this year will be carried out by the Fair Housing Council of Orange County and will include
conflict resolution, code enforcement, legal aid, and investigation into discrimination complaints. The
Fair Housing Council provides services above and beyond what is typically considered housing
discrimination. In the coming year, the organization will address discrimination in the following areas:
• Lending Practices: While data and study has not shown discrimination in lending, efforts have
not been proactive.
• Insuring Practices: Some insurance companies may be targeting certain zip codes for higher
rates of denial or different terms and conditions for insurance coverage.
• Outreach and Education: A lack of a standard in the fair housing education system may leave
gaps in communities. In addition, some immigrant populations may not be aware of the right to
fair housing.
• Public Policies /Programs: A lack of coordination among cities in the region in regards to their
planning activities may have an adverse effect on fair housing efforts on a regional basis.
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ANNUAL ACTION PLAN FOR PROGRAM YEAR 2004 PAGE 2 -2 13
2. STRATEGIC PLAN
Newport Beach Program Objectives: Special Needs
The City's Consolidated Plan must describe the needs of persons who are not homeless but who
require supportive housing. These "special need" populations include elderly, frail elderly, persons
with disabilities (mental, physical, developmental), persons with alcohol or other drug addiction,
persons with HIV /AIDS and their families, and public housing residents.
I. Increase accessibility to public facilities
The City will continue to provide funding for ADA Improvements to public facilities throughout the City
to ensure accessibility to residents with disabilities. In the upcoming program year, the City will
provide $50,000 for such improvements.
2. Improve support services to elderly.
Seniors are the largest and fastest growing "special need" population in Newport Beach. The City will
provide support to seniors to enable them to remain independent. In the upcoming program year, the
City will provide,$20,000 of CDBG funding to FISH Harbor Area, Inc. to administer their Mobile Meals
Program. The program delivers meals to homebound seniors throughout Newport Beach. This
service allows seniors who may otherwise become institutionalized remain in their homes and
maintain their self - sufficiency.
3. Improve support services to those with substance addictions.
Persons suffering from substance addictions are a target population of the City's Anti- Poverty
Strategy. Once a person has begun the recovery process, there is a higher chance they will become
self - sufficient. In the upcoming program year, the City will continue to support the efforts of Serving
People In Need (SPIN) by funding their Substance Abuse Rehabilitation Program with $10,000 of
CDBG funding. This program provides access to recovery programs to homeless and low- income
individuals whom otherwise could not afford such services. The program includes one month of room
and board, counseling, and supplemental services focused on employment, medical assistance, and
legal assistance.
4. Improve support services to HIV /AIDS population.
In the 2004 -2005 program year, the City will provide $5,550 of CDBG funds to Emmanuel House, a
transitional housing program for adults living with HIV or AIDS, the only project of its kind in Orange
County. The project is administered by Mercy House. Funds will be used to provide a food pantry
that contains nutritional supplements in addition to food and household supplies. The program
expects to assist 40 clients in Orange County.

2. STRATEGIC PLAN
Newport Beach Program Objectives: Homeless
1. Preserve the supply of emergency and transitional housing
While no emergency shelter or transitional housing facilities are located within Newport Beach, the
provision of shelter is a priority for the City. The City will work with agencies in surrounding areas
address homelessness. In FY 2004 -2005 the City will fund the following activities to meet this goal:
• WISEPlace Steps to Independence $5,000
• Orange Coast Interfaith Shelter Homeless Shelter $10,000
• Serving People In Need (SPIN) Substance Abuse Rehabilitation $10,000
• Mercy House Emmanuel House $5,550
2. Assist homeless and prevent those "at -risk" of becoming homeless
Part of the City's Anti- Poverty Strategy is to assist those "at- risk" of losing their self sufficiency and
becoming more dependent on public services. The City will fund the following projects in FY 2004-
2005 to meet this goal:
• FISH Harbor
Homeless and Hunger Prevention $15,000
3. Assist homeless battered women and children
Homelessness may not be as visible in Newport Beach as in surrounding communities, but the City
still views homelessness as an important issue that is a high priority to be addressed. The City will
continue to work with its partner agencies within the Orange County Continuum of Care to best meet
the needs of homeless persons and those at risk of homelessness.
In the 2004 -2005 program year, the City has recommended funding for the following activities to help
address the public service needs of homeless persons in and around Newport Beach:
• WISEPlace Steps to Independence $5,000
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ANNUAL ACTION PLAN FOR PROGRAM YEAR 2004 PAGE 2 -4
2. STRATEGIC PLAN
Newport Beach Program Objectives: Community Development
1. Stimulate investment through alleviation of physical and economic distress
The City is nearing completion of the work detailed in the Balboa Village Pedestrian and Streetscape
Improvement Plan. CDBG funds were used to secure a Section 108 loan, which was used in
conjunction with City parking funds to fund the improvements. The City expects the project to
stimulate private economic investment in the area. In other areas, the City will rely on code
enforcement activities to identify signs of deterioration in its early stages.
• City of Newport Beach Balboa Village Improvements $200,000
• City of Newport Beach Code Enforcement $25,000
• City of Newport Beach 108 Loan Repayment $186,301
2. Improve health and safety through rehabilitation of community facilities.
The City will not fund any projects in FY 2004 -2005 that will work toward meeting this objective.
3. Preserve neighborhoods and provide economic empowerment to lower income residents
In FY 2004 -2005, the City will use CDBG to repay the loan used for the Balboa improvements, fund
code enforcement officers to identify deterioration in its early stages, and fund programs that help
persons gain a higher degree of self - sufficiency.

2. STRATEGIC PLAN
HUD - Specified Objectives
1. Address Obstacles to Meeting Needs
The development process in housing and community development is lengthy and complex. It is often
hampered by a wide range of obstacles. HUD asks local governments to strategize a plan to mitigate
these obstacles. The City has identified the lack of developable sites, high land costs and limited
funding as obstacles to affordable housing. Other obstacles in non - housing community development
include NIMBY -ism (Not in My Backyard), lack of organizational capacity, and lack of available
funding.
In response, the City has adopted policies to overcome some of these obstacles. In regard to
affordable housing, the City encourages affordable housing production by providing density bonuses
to interested developers and through the inclusionary zoning requirements. The City will work closely
with affordable housing developers to expedite the permitting process in order to cut costs.
In regard to non - housing obstacles, the City will facilitate community involvement to increase
understanding of community needs and the possible solutions to meet those needs. The City will
maintain close partnerships with service providers and other community development professionals to
identify and correct issues such as lack of capacity and resources.
2. Foster and Maintain Affordable Housing
As stated above, the City has identified the lack of developable sites, high land costs and limited
funding as obstacles to producing affordable housing. The City continues to monitor and enforce
affordability covenants on affordable housing projects throughout the City. This includes not only
housing units developed with federal funds, but all units with an affordability covenant in place.
3. Remove Barriers to Affordable Housing
The City will continue to implement the following procedures and programs:
• Monitor all regulations, ordinances, departmental processing procedures, and residential
development fees to ensure these requirements do not excessively constrain affordable
residential development.
• Continue to offer density bonus incentives for the development of affordable housing pursuant to
state density bonus requirements and the City's General Plan Housing Element.
• Partner with the Fair Housing Council of Orange County to provide tenant and landlord
counseling to provide fair housing opportunities for Newport Beach residents.
4. Reduce Poverty
Almost all of the City's funded programs are aimed at helping a family or individual increase or
maintain their self - sufficiency. For example, the FISH Harbor Areas' Mobile Meals Project supports
self- sufficiency of seniors and persons with disabilities. The Steps to Independence Program
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ANNUAL ACTION PLAN FOR PROGRAM YEAR 2004
PAGE 2 -6 /to
2. STRATEGIC PLAN
administered by WISEPIace provides a comprehensive program with the end goal of self - sufficiency,
including transitional shelter, food, clothing, counseling, and employment assistance to homeless
women without children. The program handles a variety of clientele, including victims of domestic
violence, emancipated youth, seniors, and women with developmental disabilities
In the 2004 -2005 program year, the City will fund the following activities that will directly contribute to
reduction of poverty levels in Newport Beach:
WISEPIace
Orange Coast Interfaith Shelter
SPIN
FISH Harbor
5. Develop Institutional Structure
Steps to Independence $5,000
Emergency Shelter $10,000
Substance Abuse Rehabilitation $10,000
Homeless Prevention $15,000
The City relies heavily on its community partners in order to provide needed services to area
residents. Unfortunately, the City receives a relatively small allocation of federal funds, of which only
15 percent can be provided to social service organizations for the provision of services. City staff will
work with organizations that do not receive federal funds and provide a Certification of Consistency if
the proposed project reflects the goals and objectives of the City's adopted Consolidated Plan.
6. Enhance Service Delivery (including Monitoring)
The City continues to refine its internal procedures and build its relationships with partner agencies in
order to provide the highest level of service to the targeted populations.
The City will also make efforts to ensure a high level of service from its subrecipients. These efforts
start at the beginning of the program year with a kick -off meeting that covers program requirements,
such as record- keeping, invoicing, and procurement. Throughout the program year, the City will
review payment requests and progress reports to ensure program compliance and provide technical
assistance when needed. It is the City's goal to provide on -site monitoring to every subrecipient at
least once during the program year. The goal of the monitoring is to ensure program compliance and
improve the level of service.
In regard to capital expenditures, the City will ensure that procurements and project administration
comply with all federal, state, and local regulations, including environmental review, prevailing wage
requirements, and Section 3 requirements.

7. Address Threat of Lead Based Paint
The City will pursue other actions as well, such as monitoring lead- poisoning data maintained by
Orange County Department of Health Services, educating residents on the health hazards of lead
based paint through the use of brochures and encouraging the screening of children for elevated
blood -lead levels, and disseminating brochures through the rehabilitation program and the City's
partners in affordable and fair housing.
8. Improve Public Housing
As stated in the fourth local housing goal in the above section, the City will assist Orange County
Housing Authority(OCHA) to maximize the use of Section 8 funds and other resources within Newport
Beach.

4. DISTRIBUTION OF RESOURCES
Distribution among Priority Needs
The funding available under the Consolidated Plan may be used to meet a wide variety of needs. The
City established local priority needs based on the housing market analysis and other research conducted
as part of the 2000 Consolidated Plan. The goals listed in the Strategic Plan section of this document are
the result of that research. The City gives priority to projects and programs that will pursue the goals listed
in the strategic plan.
Geographic Distribution
All CDBG- funded public service activities will be available to Newport Beach residents citywide based on
income and other eligibility. These activities cater specifically to low and moderate income residents or to
groups presumed to be of low and moderate income instead of residents in a specific area.
Public Facility improvements and Code Enforcement activities will be targeted to the Balboa Peninsula
area. Projects that serve an identified geographic area, such as parks, facilities, community centers and
street improvements, are eligible for CDBG funding based on the percentage of low and moderate -
income residents living in the service area. In most communities, the threshold is 51 percent. However,
some communities, such as Newport Beach, have no or very few areas that meet this criteria. For these
grantees, the CDBG law authorizes an alternate method to determine a lower threshold. The Balboa
Peninsula is one of the few areas in Newport Beach that is eligible for CDBG assistance under this
alternate calculation of eligibility.
Please refer to the map on the following page for more details on the areas that will benefit from Code
Enforcement and the Public Facilities Improvements.

CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH WILINCIL AGENDA
CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT No. 19 S "JS -o-f
Agenda Item No. 16
April 13, 2004
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Community & Economic Development, Planning Department
Daniel R. Trimble, Program Manager
949/644 -3230. Email: dtrimble (ci) city. newport- beach. ca. us
SUBJECT: Review of the FY 2004 -2005 Community Development Block Grant One -
Year Action Plan to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development.
ISSUE:
The Action Plan represents the City of Newport Beach's official application to HUD for
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds. The Action Plan describes the
activities to be implemented during the coming fiscal year. It also provides a
participatory process through which our citizens are given an opportunity to determine,
provide input, and be informed about the projected use of funds. More importantly, it is
the tool that verifies and assists in the implementation of the goals and strategies
outlined in the Five -Year Consolidated Plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
After receiving public comments and recommendations on the Draft Action Plan,
including the budget for the CDBG program, staff recommends the Council approve the
recommendations for funding and schedule the revised Action Plan for City Council
approval at the May 11, 2004 Public Hearing.
DISCUSSION:
Citizen Participation
During the April 13, 2004 City Council meeting, the Council will initiate a public hearing
to solicit input from the community and to comment of the draft FY2004 -2005 One -Year
Action Plan and to review the various projects proposed for the 2004 -2005 CDBG
program year. The Newport Beach Planning Department is also entrusted by the
Newport Beach City Council with the responsibility of reviewing all applications for
CDBG funding by public service and fair housing agencies, and of making funding
recommendations to the City Council.
A draft version of the Action Plan was developed and released for a 30 -day public
review and comment period beginning on April 1, 2004. On May 11, 2004, the Newport
Beach City Council will also conduct a public hearing to review any additional
comments received on the draft Action Plan, and to make final funding decisions on the
proposed activities. The City Council's funding decisions will be incorporated into the
final Action Plan and submitted to HUD on or about May 15, 2004 for approval. All
comments received on the draft Action Plan will be summarized and included in the
final Action Plan.
Public Services and Fair Housing
In January of 2004, the City published a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) in the
Daily Pilot newspaper to announce the availability of CDBG funds and solicit proposals
from tax - exempt nonprofit organizations that provide eligible CDBG services or projects
that benefit Newport Beach residents. The City also mailed notices to agencies who
receive funds in the current Fiscal Year and other agencies who had expressed interest
in receiving funds.
In response to the NOFA, nine public service providers submitted applications for
CDBG grants for Fiscal Year 2004 -2005, requesting a total of $126,384. Included in
this report is a summary of the CDBG Public Service Grant Applications and staff
recommendations to the City Council. These recommendations are based on the
priority needs identified in the Newport Beach 2000 -2005 Consolidated Plan:
Public Services
Priority Need Level
Homeless Persons and At -risk Individuals
Emergency Shelter
High
Transitional Housing
High
Permanent Housing
High
Substance Abuse Treatment
High
Mental Health Care
High
Victims of Domestic Violence
High
Youth
Medium

Elderly and Frail Elderly High
Persons with Disabilities Medium
Persons with Drug /Alcohol Abuse Medium
Affirmatively furthering fair housing choices are a mandated priority for the use of
CDBG funds. The City has the option to fund fair housing services as part of the public
service grants (subject to the 15% maximum allocation) or as part of the general
administration funds (subject to the 20% maximum allocation).

are offered. The shelter is located at 1411 N. Broadway in Santa Ana. The program
estimates assisting between 75 and 90 formerly homeless women.
Orange Coast Interfaith Shelter (OCIS) $20,000
OCIS is one of only two emergency shelters in Orange County. The program offers both
emergency shelter and transitional housing. The program anticipates providing
emergency shelter for 50 -55 homeless individuals per night and transitional housing for
18 families at a time. Funds will be used for administrative costs.
Serving People in Need (SPIN) $10,000
The SPIN Substance Abuse Recovery Program (SARP) provides access to recovery
programs to homeless and low income individuals who cannot afford it otherwise. The
program includes one month's room and board, counseling, and supplemental services
focused on employment, medical assistance, and legal assistance. Funds will be used
for case management, shelter costs, and operational costs. Funds will cover costs for
case management for 9 individuals from Newport Beach and indirectly support the
whole program that serves 450 individuals annually.
FISH Harbor Area Inc. — Mobile Meals $30,000
Mobile Meals delivers nutritional meals to individuals who are homebound due to age,
illness, or disability. This program allows clients to live independently who may
otherwise be institutionalized. It is estimated the program will serve 80 unduplicated
Newport Beach residents 10 meals per week for the duration of the program year.
FISH Harbor Area Inc. — Hunger and Homeless Prevention $20,000
This program offers rental /utility assistance, supplemental groceries, and case
management to low income families. It is estimated that 78 of the 5,200 annual client
contacts will be Newport Beach residents.
Mercy House $7,500
This program will provide program supplies at Emmanuel House, a transitional housing
program for adults living with HIV or AIDS. The only project of its kind in Orange
County, Emmanuel House provides homeless adults afflicted with this disease the
opportunity to live in a dignified home environment and receive supportive services
necessary to rebuild their lives. Funds will be used to provide a food pantry that
contains nutritional supplements in addition to food and household supplies.

Fund Allocation
Given the level of funding available, the amount of funding requested, past performance
and proposed accomplishments, anticipated benefit to Newport Beach residents, and
City priorities, staff recommends that the City Council provide funding for public service
and fair housing activities as follows:

"Fair Housing services are funded from the Administration portion of the City's CDBG allocation and
do not count towards the 15% restriction for public services.
This recommended allocation provides a consistent level of funding to each of the
existing providers. Unfortunately, given the increased demand for public service
funding, staff is not able to recommend funding for the Designated Drivers Association
or Families Forward. Staff has determined that the Designated Drivers Association
program does not truly meet the objectives of the Five -Year Consolidated Plan. In the
case of Families Forward, Fish Harbor currently provides similar services and is located
in closer proximity to Newport Beach.

Not subject to CEQA, as the activity is not a project, as defined in Section 15378(b)(4).

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Overview of Consolidated Plan Process
Every year the City of Newport Beach receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds
from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The grant money is to primarily
benefit the lower income residents of the City in three ways:
• By providing decent housing
• By providing a suitable living environment
• By expanding economic opportunities
To ensure that the funds are used to meet the most urgent needs in the community, the City develops a
community needs assessment. The needs assessment includes quantitative and statistical research,
resident survey results, and input from local non - profits and service agencies. Based on the needs
assessment, the City compiles a list of goals and objectives to meet the community's needs in a Strategic
Plan. The objectives address housing, homeless, and other community development needs. A summary
of the current strategic plan is included in this Plan. Together, the community needs assessment and the
Strategic Plan form the Consolidated Plan. The Consolidated Plan is developed every five (5) years.
One -Year Action Plan for 2004 -2005 Program Year
This is the One -Year Action Plan for program year 2004 -2005. This document describes how the City will
utilize the new HUD grant funds and other available resources to undertake programs and projects that
will help the City meet the goals and objectives outlined in its Consolidated Plan.
In the 2004 -2005 program year, which starts July 15t, 2004 and ends June 30th , 2005, the City of Newport
Beach will receive $437,000 in CDBG Funds. In addition, the City will reallocate unspent funds from
previous program years that have been freed up from completed projects. Overall, the City will allocate
$413,159.20 to the following programs:
• WISEPlace
• Orange Coast Interfaith Shelter
• Serving People In Need (SPIN)

2. STRATEGIC PLAN
Overview
The following is a summary of the Five Year Strategic Plan and how the activities proposed for the
upcoming program year will work toward achieving the goals included in the Strategic Plan. The full
version of the Strategic Plan is in the City 's 2000 -2004 Consolidated Plan and can be obtained from the
City's Planning Department.
The strategic goals are divided between Newport Beach program objectives and HUD - specked
objectives. The Newport Beach program goals were developed based on the speck needs found within
the community. The HUD - specked goals are mandated by the federal government and designed to meet
common needs found in communities throughout the country. An activity will appear more than once
given that some local and federal goals overlap. All activities proposed for the 2004 program year will
strive to serve low and moderate income persons. No activities will seek eligibility under the "urgent
need" eligibility.

2. STRATEGIC PLAN
Newport Beach Program Objectives: Housing
1. Develop 139 units of senior housing
As stated in the Newport Beach Housing Element, the City's goal is to preserve and increase housing
affordability. The City set a target of adding 139 senior housing units in the Consolidated Plan. This
goal will be surpassed with the development of 150 units of senior housing at the Lower Bayview
Project. The City has provided $1,000,000 in subsidies and waived an additional $250,000 in fees.
The project has been approved by the Planning Commission and the City Council and is awaiting
approval from the Coastal Commission. The project is expected to be completed in the fall of 2004.
2. Maintain current level of Section 8 Voucher supply
Section 8 vouchers are rental assistance payments to owners of private market rate units on behalf of
very low- income tenants. This program allows the users to find their own housing which best suits
their needs. The City will continue to support this county administered program.
3. Ensure universal access to fair housing
The City is committed to ensuring the right to housing for all of its residents, Fair housing activities
undertaken this year will be carried out by the Fair Housing Council of Orange County and will include
conflict resolution, code enforcement, legal aid, and investigation into discrimination complaints. The
Fair Housing Council provides services above and beyond what is typically considered housing
discrimination. In the coming year, the organization will address discrimination in the following areas:
• Lending Practices: While data and study has not shown discrimination in lending, efforts have
not been proactive.
• Insuring Practices: Some insurance companies may be targeting certain zip codes for higher
rates of denial or different terms and conditions for insurance coverage.
• Outreach and Education: A lack of a standard in the fair housing education system may leave
gaps in communities. In addition, some immigrant populations may not be aware of the right to
fair housing.
• Public Policies /Programs: A lack of coordination among cities in the region in regards to their
planning activities may have an adverse effect on fair housing efforts on a regional basis.

2. STRATEGIC PLAN
Newport Beach Program Objectives: Special Needs
The City's Consolidated Plan must describe the needs of persons who are not homeless but who
require supportive housing. These "special need" populations include elderly, frail elderly, persons
with disabilities (mental, physical, developmental), persons with alcohol or other drug addiction,
persons with HIV /AIDS and their families, and public housing residents.
1. Increase accessibility to public facilities
2. Improve support services to elderly.
Seniors are the largest and fastest growing "special need" population in Newport Beach. The City will
provide support to seniors to enable them to remain independent.
In the 2004 -2005 program year, the City received several proposals to provide services to special
need populations. To date, the following programs have been recommended for funding:
3. Improve support services to those with substance addictions.
Persons suffering from substance addictions are a target population of the City's Anti - Poverty
Strategy. Once a person has begun the recovery process, there is a higher chance they will become
self - sufficient.
In the 2004 -2005 program year, the City received several proposals to provide services to special
need populations. To date, the following programs have been recommended for funding:
4. Improve support services to HIV /AIDS population.
In the 2004 -2005 program year, the City received several proposals to provide services to special
need populations. To date, the following programs have been recommended for funding:

2. STRATEGIC PLAN
Newport Beach Program Objectives: Homeless
1. Preserve the supply of emergency and transitional housing
While no emergency shelter or transitional housing facilities are located within Newport Beach, the
provision of shelter is a priority for the City. The City will work with agencies in surrounding areas
address homelessness. In 2004 the City will fund the following activities to meet this goal:
• WISEPIace Steps to Independence $5,000
• Orange Coast Interfaith Shelter Homeless Shelter $20,000
• Serving People In Need (SPIN) Substance Abuse Rehabilitation $10,000
• Mercy House Emmanuel House $5,550
• FISH Harbor Homeless and Hunger Prevention $15,000
2. Assist homeless and prevent those "at- risk" of becoming homeless
Part of the City's Anti - Poverty Strategy is to assist those "at- risk" of losing their self sufficiency and
becoming more dependent on public services. The City will fund the following projects
in the 2003
program year to meet this goal:
• WISEPIace

3. Assist homeless battered women and children
Homelessness may not be as visible in Newport Beach as in surrounding communities, but the City
still views homelessness as an important issue that is a high priority to be addressed. The City will
continue to work with its partner agencies within the Orange County Continuum of Care to best meet
the needs of homeless persons and those at risk of homelessness.
In the 2004 -2005 program year, the City has recommended funding for the following activities to help
address the public service needs of homeless persons in and around Newport Beach:
• WISEPIace Steps to Independence $5,000

Newport Beach Program Objectives: Community Development
1. Stimulate investment through alleviation of physical and economic distress
The City is nearing completion of the work detailed in the Balboa Village Pedestrian and Streetscape
Improvement Plan. CDBG funds were used to secure a Section 108 loan, which was used in
conjunction with City parking funds to fund the improvements. The City expects the project to
stimulate private economic investment in the area. In other areas, the City will rely on code
enforcement activities to identify signs of deterioration in its early stages.

enforcement officers to identify deterioration in its early stages, and fund programs that help persons
gain a higher degree of self - sufficiency.

2. STRATEGIC PLAN
HUD - Specified Objectives
. 1. Address Obstacles to Meeting Needs
The development process in housing and community development is lengthy and complex. It is often
hampered by a wide range of obstacles. HUD asks local governments to strategize a plan to mitigate
these obstacles. The City has identified the lack of developable sites, high land costs and limited
funding as obstacles to affordable housing. Other obstacles in non - housing community development
include NIMBY -ism (Not in My Backyard), lack of organizational capacity, and lack of available
funding.
In response, the City has adopted policies to overcome some of these obstacles. In regard to
affordable housing, the City encourages affordable housing production by providing density bonuses
to interested developers and through the inclusionary zoning requirements. The City will work closely
with affordable housing developers to expedite the permitting process in order to cut costs. To
address the lack of funding, the City will apply to other funding sources, such as the BEGIN program
and a workforce housing grant.
In regard to non - housing obstacles, the City will facilitate community involvement to increase
understanding of community needs and the possible solutions to meet those needs. The City will
maintain close partnerships with service providers and other community development professionals to
identify and correct issues such as lack of capacity and resources.
2. Foster and Maintain Affordable Housing
As stated above, the City has identified the lack of developable sites, high land costs and limited
funding as obstacles to producing affordable housing. The City continues to monitor and enforce
affordability covenants on affordable housing projects throughout the City.
3. Remove Barriers to Affordable Housing
The City will continue to implement the following procedures and programs:
• Monitor all regulations, ordinances, departmental processing procedures, and residential
development fees to ensure these requirements do not excessively constrain affordable
residential development.
• Continue to offer density bonus incentives for the development of affordable housing pursuant to
state density bonus requirements and the City's General Plan Housing Element.
• Partner with the Fair Housing Council of Orange County to provide tenant and landlord
counseling to provide fair housing opportunities for Newport Beach residents.
4. Reduce Poverty
Almost all of the City's funded programs are aimed at helping a family or individual increase or
• maintain their self - sufficiency. For example, Newport Beach Meals on Wheels and Project
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ANNUAL ACTION PLAN FOR PROGRAM YEAR 2004 PAGE 2 -6
2. STRATEGIC PLAN
Independence work toward supporting self - sufficiency of seniors and persons with disabilities. Every
homeowner the City assists through down payment assistance or rehabilitation increase their self -
sufficiency by protecting their principal investment: their home.
The City will also help families rise out of poverty through seminars focused on the Earned Income
Tax Credit (EITC). It is estimated that 44,000 families in Orange County are eligible for the tax credit
but do not take it. In partnership with the Legal Aid Society of Orange County, Wells Fargo, and
others, the City will help families prepare their tax returns. Participants in last year's seminars
averaged a return of $3000.
In the 2004 -2005 program year, the City will fund the following activities that will directly contribute to
reduction of poverty levels in Newport Beach:
• Childcare Scholarships
S. Develop Institutional Structure
Page ###
For organizations that did not receive funding, the City will provide a Certification of Consistency if the
proposed project reflects the goals and objectives of the City's adopted Consolidated Plan.
6. Enhance Service Delivery (including Monitoring)
The City continues to refine its internal procedures and build its relationships with partner agencies in
order to provide the highest level of service to the targeted populations.
The City will also make efforts to ensure a high level of service from its subrecipients. These efforts
start at the beginning of the program year with a kick -off meeting that covers program requirements,
such as record - keeping, invoicing, and procurement. Throughout the program year, the City will
review payment requests and progress reports to ensure program compliance and provide technical
assistance when needed. It is the City's goal to provide on -site monitoring to every subrecipient at
least once during the program year. The goal of the monitoring is to ensure program compliance and
improve the level of service.
T. Address Threat of Lead Based Paint
The City will pursue other actions as well, such as monitoring lead- poisoning data maintained by
Orange County Department of Health Services, educating residents on the health hazards of lead
based paint through the use of brochures and encouraging the screening of children for elevated
blood -lead levels, and disseminating brochures through the rehabilitation program and the City's
partners in affordable and fair housing.
8. Improve Public Housing
As stated in the fourth local housing goal in the above section, the City will assist Orange County
Housing Authority(OCHA) to maximize the use of Section 8 funds and other resources within Newport
Beach. In the coming year, the City will follow up with interested property owners and OCHA to
explore the idea of creating project -based section 8 within the City.

Chapter 3. AVAILABLE RESOURCES
/C(
Federal Resources 1 .
The City can budget a total of $437,000 of CDBG for the 2004 -2005 program year. The CDBG
entitlement grant increased by $11,000 from the previous year.
• 2004 CDBG Entitlement $437,000

activities that help meet the objectives specified in the Strategic Plan.
Other Resources •
It is difficult to estimate the amount of other resources that are available for affordable housing and
community development projects in Newport Beach. Over the next program year, the City may
pursue the following available funding sources:
• Workforce Housing Grant
• BEGIN Funds

4. DISTRIBUTION OF RESOURCES
Distribution among Priority Needs
The funding available under the Consolidated Plan may be used to meet a wide variety of needs. The
City established local priority needs based on the housing market analysis and other research conducted
as part of the 2000 Consolidated Plan. The goals listed in the Strategic Plan section of this document are
the result of that research. The City gives priority to projects and programs that will pursue the goals listed
in the strategic plan.
Geographic Distribution
All CDBG- funded public service activities will be available to Newport Beach residents citywide based on
income and other eligibility. These activities cater specifically to low and moderate income residents or to
groups presumed to be of low and moderate income instead of residents in a specific area.
Public Facility improvements and Code Enforcement activities will be targeted to the Balboa Peninsula
area. Projects that serve an identified geographic area, such as parks, facilities, community centers and
street improvements, are eligible for CDBG funding based on the percentage of low and moderate -
income residents living in the service area. In most communities, the threshold is 51 percent. However,
some communities, such as Newport Beach, have no or very few areas that meet this criteria. For these
grantees, the CDBG law authorizes an alternate method to determine a lower threshold. The Balboa
Peninsula is one of the few areas in Newport Beach that is eligible for CDBG assistance under this
alternate calculation of eligibility.
Please refer to the map on the following page for more details on the areas that will benefit from Code
Enforcement and the Public Facilities Improvements.
