91.200(c), 91.220(b) 1. Introduction Eligible state and local governments receive annual block grants for community development and affordable housing from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The City of Santa Cruz receives two of these grants directly from HUD including the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME). For each program, HUD describes a broad range of eligible activities. The City then determines which of these eligible activities will best serve the needs of their community. In order to determine the most pressing needs and develop effective, place‐based market‐driven strategies to meet those needs, HUD requires grantees to develop a Consolidated Plan. This Plan lays out the City’s overall investment strategies for the City’s use of federal entitlement grant funds for affordable housing, homelessness, addressing poverty, and community development from July 1, 2015, through June 30, 2020. For each of the five years covered by the Plan, the City must develop an Action Plan that implements the Consolidated Plan through an allocation of funds. The Consolidated Plan and the Action Plan refer to Program Years (PY). PYs are referred to by the year in which the PY begins. This differs from the City’s Fiscal Year (FY) which is referenced by the year when the FY ends. Accordingly, the 2015 PY referenced in these HUD documents is equivalent to the City’s 2016 FY. For ease of inclusivity and better communication, this five year Consolidated Plan is referenced as the 2015‐ 2020 Consolidated Plan, indicating the year in which it begins and then year it ends. The Consolidated Plan was prepared in accordance with HUD’s Office of Community and Planning Development (CPD) eCon Planning Suite which was introduced in 2012. Since that time, HUD requires grantees submit their Consolidated Plan and year one Annual Action Plan using the Consolidated Plan template through the Integrated Disbursement and Information

Suddenly the home became our world: those familiar four walls morphed into an all- encompassing space where we lived, worked, played, exercised, taught, created and socialized, when permitted. The divisive nature of this global pandemic and lockdown presented many different personal situations when it came to housing. Some cherished time away from the office while others struggled to juggle. Those living alone were isolated for prolonged stretches; college students deferred their education or were taught virtually; care facilities closed their doors to visitors. However, beneath this complex spectrum of individual circumstances The rental lay one unifying factor: In 2020 great swaths of people examined their sector has an lifestyle and reevaluated their housing needs at the same time. opportunity As a result, the living sector – particularly residential-for-rent – proved one like never of the more resilient real estate investment classes coming out of what before to was arguably the acute phase of the pandemic. provide In the U.S., asking rents in the multifamily sector held up better than in variety and previous downturns,1 while 95% of rent was collected in the U.K.

From: Erin Krebs <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, January 23, 2021 9:24 PM To: Schroeder, Jeremy <[email protected]> Subject: ADUs Jeremy, I support eliminating the owner-occupancy requirement for accessory dwelling units. We have a shortage of homes in Minneapolis and especially small, affordable homes in our neighborhood; eliminating the owner-occupancy requirement will result in more homes. ADUs do not require demolishing existing homes and they blend right in (unlike the huge new houses that are increasingly replacing small older homes). Thank you for your housing advocacy!

This thesis explores how economic factors, preferences, and self---efficacy interact to determine housing pathways.
