CAPER 1 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018) CR-05 - Goals and Outcomes Progress the jurisdiction has made in carrying out its strategic plan and its action plan. 91.520(a) This could be an overview that includes major initiatives and highlights that were proposed and executed throughout the program year. The Annual Action Plan for 2019-2020 established Layton City priorities based on identified needs from consultation with government agencies, local non-profits, service providers, local citizens and other appropriate parties. The Annual Action Plan establishes performance goals and objectives for the one-year period. The goals set forth in the Plan are consistent with initiatives in the five-year Consolidated Plan. Layton City, its staff, its subrecipients and others worked together to address the priority needs identified in the 2018-2022 Consolidated Plan. Priorities in the 2019-2020 Annual Action Plan included: removing barriers to affordable housing through down payment assistance, land write-down for affordable housing, a home repair/rehab program, a youth court program, temporary shelter assistance, respite nursery care, and domestic violence shelter funding. Comparison of the proposed versus actual outcomes for each outcome measure submitted with the consolidated plan and explain, if applicable, why progress was not made toward meeting goals and objectives. 91.520(g) Categories, priority levels, funding sources and amounts, outcomes/objectives, goal outcome indicators, units of measure, targets, actual outcomes/outputs, and percentage completed for each of the grantee’s program year goals.

Layton City continues to prioritize funding projects that achieve national objectives and community needs. As noted in the table above, some projects met or exceeded the anticipated number of beneficiaries. Expended funds were in accordance with CDBG regulations including caps on administration and public service programs. Priorities are determined through planning and coordination with local public service providers, local and regional governments, and public input. Discrepancies in actual outcomes and percentage completed for each of the City’s program years goals are due to differences in how numbers are reported in Integrated Disbursement & Information System (IDIS). Please refer to the paper submission for accurate data. $63,500 was expended for five public service programs. Each public service organization had an executed subrecipient agreement with Layton City. To ensure compliance with the Subrecipient Agreement and CDBG regulations, the CDBG Administrator conducted on-site monitoring visits to each subrecipient during the program year. The monitoring visits proved effective in certifying that all subrecipents followed CDBG regulations and spent their yearly allocation. The outbreak of COVID-19 reduced the number of low-mod persons who took advantage of some public service programs. For example: some did not use the Open Doors respite nursery service due to concerns regarding the risk of exposure to the Coronavirus. Access and affordability were two barriers to affordable housing in Layton City identified in the most recent Analysis of Impediments. The Homebuyer Assistance Program provided affordable housing opportunities to qualified low-moderate applicants. Home repair/rehab funds assisted low/moderate income households, thus increasing the quality of the neighborhood.

CAPER 6 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018) Leveraging Explain how federal funds leveraged additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements were satisfied, as well as how any publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that were used to address the needs identified in the plan. The City does not have a matching requirement but is constantly looking for ways to leverage resources to provide solutions to priorities and objectives outlined in the Consolidated Plan. Currently, the City leverages resources with subrecipients as CDBG funds are combined with other Federal, State, and local funds to sustain the operations of these organizations. Housing affordability is one of the primary concerns for low/moderate families in the City. An example of leveraging resources is the City’s partnership with the Davis School District, Northern Wasatch Realtors Association (Have a Heart), who provide the labor at little to no charge to create new, affordable homes, for income qualifying families. This partnership assists needy families and expands affordable housing opportunities in the community.
