Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 5 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015) 4. Summary of citizen participation process and consultation process

In October 2013, Salt Lake County Community Resources and Development completed a community needs assessment to gain a better understanding of the community needs of low to moderate-income households in Salt Lake County, Utah. The purpose of the project was to help inform the allocation of limited resources, namely Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Social Services Block Grant (SSBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) and (HOME) Home Investment Partnership Program grant funding, to organizations whose programs can best address the needs of low to moderate-income households in Salt Lake County, Utah.

The needs assessment was completed in a multi-step process which included:

1. Literature review of prior needs assessments 2. Coordination and guidance from the CRD Director and Program Managers 3. Public Comment Process 4. Internal stakeholder meeting with Salt Lake County 5. CRD follow up to internal stakeholder meeting

In particular, the Public Comment Process (Item #3 on the above list) greatly informed the finalized identification of needs. The Public Comment period was administered through two in-person meetings held on September 23, 2013 and the September 25, 2013 as well as an option to submit written comments through September 27, 2013. Prior to the public comment period a draft copy of the needs assessment was posted on the Community Resources and Development web site, a legal notice was run in the Salt Lake Tribune and Deseret News on September 8, 2013, and email reminders were sent to community organizations. Public response was representative of a range of community organizations and individuals. In total, 27 organizations and 2 private citizens engaged in the public comment process.

Highest needs of low to-moderate income households in Salt Lake County, Utah, are provided below. These needs were incorporated into the RFP process for Salt Lake County: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Social Services Block Grant (SSBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) and (HOME) Home Investment Partnership Program grant funding.

7. Summary

A new process has been implemented where all CDBG funds will be pooled and distributed through a collaborative decision-making process. Under this new process, applicants, including both non-profit service providers and local jurisdictions, will apply for funding through an RFP process. The Citizen Participation Process has been amended to include a citizen review committee that better reflects the various jurisdictions to score and rank the various applications. The County will then hold a joint public hearing to solicit public input on the preliminary budget recommendations from the citizen committees. Following the public hearing, the approval body will either consent to the preliminary budget, or in consultation with the County Mayor, recommend modifications to it. Upon receiving the final budget recommendation of the approval body, final approval will be made and submitted to HUD.

This process will create a more streamlined, efficient and effective grant process for all involved and will enable the County to collectively have a greater impact to the challenges we seek to address. The format of the Community & Economic Development Advisory Council (CEDAC) was changed to include citizens from the participating Cities and the Unincorporated areas of the County to assist with the collaboration of the priorities.

Salt Lake County is updating its Citizen Participation Plan to reflect the changes in the new Urban County process for the CDBG funds. This Plan helps determine and prioritize the needs of the communities within the County’s jurisdiction and involves the public in the Consolidated Plan process. The current document is available on our web page at: www.slco.org/crd/communityDev/PlansReports.html.

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(I)).

Consultations were held with the Housing Authority of the County of Salt Lake, West Valley City Housing Authority, Community Development Corporation of Utah, Community Action Program, Assist Inc., as well as advocates for the disabled, seniors and the homeless. Included in this process were representatives from all the Cities of the Urban County as well as the HOME Consortium Cities.

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

In 2014, the Continuum of Care adopted the Collective Impact Model for the homeless housing and services system and selected Salt Lake County Government as the backbone agency within that model. As part of those duties, Salt Lake County Government also become the Collaborative Applicant for the UT-500 Continuum of Care.

In 2015, Salt Lake County’s Mayor developed a Collective Impact Steering Committee on Homelessness. The Steering Committee is focused on improving the homeless housing and service delivery system in Salt Lake County in order to better meet the needs of homeless persons and persons at risk of homelessness. The Committee is currently considering a proposal to become the governing board for the UT-500 Continuum of Care.

Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 9 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015) Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards and evaluate outcomes, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the administration of HMIS

Salt Lake County Government is the Collaborative Applicant for the UT-500 Continuum of Care. In Salt Lake County, Utah there are three ESG funding sources: Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, and State of Utah. These three government agencies meet regularly to discuss homeless and housing issues, including ESG: funding allocation, performance standards, and outcome evaluation. In addition, a nine member Prioritization Committee is responsible for a rank and review of all UT-500 project applications for Continuum of Care funds. Prioritization Committee members include representative from the three ESG funding sources: Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, and the State of Utah. Funding coordination, performance standards, and outcome evaluation are among the criteria used to rank project applications.

The State of Utah is the Lead HMIS agency for the UT-500 Continuum of Care. Oversight for the Lead HMIS agency is provided by the HMIS Steering Committee. The Steering Committee includes, among others, representatives from the Continuum of Care as well as ESG funders from Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, and the State of Utah. The HMIS Steering Committee meets monthly and discuss topics including HMIS funding and updates to the HMIS Standard Operating Procedures.

NA-05 Overview Needs Assessment Overview

Overall the economy of Utah and Salt Lake County has improved. Unemployment has fallen below 4% and housing values are now increasing. The greatest challenge remains for low to very low income households. Even with the economy improving the number of homeless has increased. This has been caused by the decrease in funding for rental assistance and lack of affordable rental houisng. The vacancy of rental housing that is affordable for low income households is nearly zero percent.

Salt Lake County has nearly completed it's Analysis of Impediments and within it identifies some of the greatest unmet needs. The executive summary is attached as Appendix I.

Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 17 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015) NA-10 Housing Needs Assessment - 24 CFR 91.405, 24 CFR 91.205 (a,b,c) Summary of Housing Needs

The greatest housing needs in Salt Lake County for 2015 to 2019 are:

1. Rental housing, the strong economic growth and the change in the rate of homeownership has created a need for more new rental housing units and developments

2. Healthy Homes: The Green & Healthy Homes Initiative Salt Lake is working on meeting the need for healthy homes for families with children who have a chronic illness, asthma and other health issues

3. Homeless, and very low income households, the number of chronic homeless has been reduced by the effort to end chronic homelessness, but the decrease in funding for Section 8 vouchers and the growth in population means the number of those at risk of become homeless and those homeless has increased.

Affordable rental housing is the greatest housing need for protected classes. Over half of all minority households rent and these households are more likely to be very low or extremely low income households. Therefore policy measures that encourage additional affordable rental housing are the most effective in meeting the unmet housing needs of protected classes and affirmatively furthering fair housing. And conversely policy measures that limit or preclude the development of additional affordable rental housing are serious impediments to fair housing choice.

The supply of rent assisted units, however is far short of the need. The HUD CHAS for Salt Lake County gives an estimate of nearly 20,000 renter households that are very low income, with no rental assistance and severe housing cost burden—more than 50 percent of their income devoted to housing. These very low income, severely cost burdened households include nearly 7,000 minority households, 2,800 households with a disabled individual and 1,500 large family households. The need for affordable rental housing for these protected class households is acute. Identification and mitigation of housing impediments is paramount to improving their housing choice and opportunity.

Elderly and Extra Elderly - The increase in cost burdened elderly and extra elderly owners and renters will be rather nominal over the next five years. Generally increases are less than 200 households over the five-year period. However, the current gap in affordable housing for elderly and extra elderly renter households is extremely high. Of the nearly 1,500 elderly and extra elderly renters in the low income group 30%-50% AMI, 1,219 or 82 percent have housing problems. While not a rapidly growing category it is an income and tenure category with a sizeable gap or shortage of affordable rental housing.

Estimate the number and type of families in need of housing assistance who are disabled or victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking.

Households with Disabled Individual – The number of very low income disabled renters is projected to grow by about 400-500 renters over the five-year period. Increases in disabled households in other income and tenure categories increase by less than 200 households by 2015.

What are the most common housing problems?

The lack of affordable rental housing is one of the most critical needs. Without a rise in the availability of rental assistance. The need for more affordable housing is increasing. The most critical unmet housing needs are concentrated in the very low and extremely low income households. These households comprise a significant share of the county’s population. One-in-four households in the county have incomes below 50 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI). Of the 355,000 households in Salt Lake County in 2012, 88,750 were households with very low income; $35,000 or less for a family of four. There were over 53,000 households with extremely low income, approximately $21,000 or less for a family of four. Again these households are much more likely to be renter households of protected classes.

Are any populations/household types more affected than others by these problems?

The Analysis of Impediments plan documents in considerable detail the symptoms of impediments to fair housing choice; important demographic changes in protected classes, concentrations of poor minority and ethnic populations and disparities of opportunity that extend from the quality of local schools to the proximity to public transportation systems to availability of healthcare services. The very low income elderly, single women with children and often minority families are hurt the worse by the lack of housing choice.

The long term help to become self sufficient through job training and job opportunities are the greatest needs of low income families with children, and the ability of rapid rehousing to help them stabilize and receive the supportive care, case management and training will help them from becoming homeless.

If a jurisdiction provides estimates of the at-risk population(s), it should also include a description of the operational definition of the at-risk group and the methodology used to generate the estimates:

Those estimates show waiting lists for shelter or housing of 3,419 and a turned away count of 496 individuals or families, 469 of which were seeking transitional housing

Specify particular housing characteristics that have been linked with instability and an increased risk of homelessness

Households with Mental and physical health issues are often the the main reason for long term instability and increased risk of homeless ness.

Discussion

Local and federal programs provide housing assistance for a number of very low and extremely low income households through Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher, local housing authority’s public housing units and the low income housing tax credit program administered by the Utah Housing Corporation. Combined these programs provide over 17,000 rent assisted units to very low and extremely low income renter households in Salt Lake County.

Introduction

Over 24,000 owner-occupied households in Salt Lake County have severe housing problems, which include lack of kitchen of plumbing, more than 1 person per room, and housing cost burden amounting to more than 50 percent of total income. In Salt Lake City, over 4,000 owner-occupied household have severe housing problems (Table 3), while West Valley has over 3,200 (Table 9). Despite the slight difference in the lower-bound values between the two cities, both Salt Lake City and West Valley have lower-bound values of roughly 1,000 Hispanic owner households with severe housing problems.

The percent of owner households with severe housing problems in Salt Lake County by income and race/ethnicity are shown in Table 2. Over one in five Hispanic owner households have severe housing problems, compared to only a tenth of non-Hispanic white owner households. This disparity in housing problems cannot be explained by inherent differences in incomes across racial and ethnic groups. In fact, across all income levels, Hispanics have higher prevalence of severe housing problems than among non-Hispanic whites. Over 57 percent of Hispanic owner-occupied households below 50 percent of the area median family income have severe housing problems, compared to only 40 percent of non-Hispanic whites in this low-income bracket. In Salt Lake City, the disparity is even greater: over one in four Hispanic owner households have severe housing problems, compared to only 8 percent of non-Hispanic white owner households (Table 4).

Discussion

Note that the CHAS data, from which the following tables were constructed, is based on the American Community Survey (ACS) data from 2005-2009. This 5-year period spans both the housing boom and crash. Thus, higher prevalence of severe housing problems among Hispanics and minorities could be symptomatic of unfair lending practices during the housing bubble, especially subprime and high- interest mortgage loans. Please refer to the Lending Practices section of the Salt Lake County Fair Housing Equity Assessment for further analysis of high-interest loans

Introduction

For both large family owner and rental households, severe housing cost burden is mostly concentrated among those with incomes below 50 percent of the median family income. Over 48 percent of large family owner households and 37 percent of large family renter households in Salt Lake County below 50 percent of the median family income have severe housing cost burden. Overall, only 7 percent of total large family owner households and 16 percent of large family renter households (Table 22) in Salt Lake County have severe housing cost burden. More importantly, the tables below show that subsidized housing efforts to accommodate large family households in Salt Lake County also face the challenge of providing housing affordability below 50 percent of the area median family income.

Discussion

Note that for most of the entitlement cities, the lower-bound values of large family households with severe cost burden are not provided for income levels above 80 percent median family income due to low point estimates and large margins of error. Given that the city-level margins of error are larger than that of the county, the city lower-bound values could easily underestimate that actual numbers of large family owner and renter households with severe housing cost burden. The numbers in the following tables should only be used as a general reference that demonstrates the existence of need rather than the specific magnitude of need due to the large margins of error in the CHAS data.

A third of Hispanic and minority renter households in Salt Lake County have severe housing problems, compared to only a fifth of non-Hispanic white renter households. Interestingly, this gap disappears among very low-income renter households (less than 50 percent HAMFI), half of which have severe housing problems regardless of race or ethnicity. The gap resurfaces in Salt Lake County for all income brackets above 50 percent HAMFI. In fact, for Salt Lake City, Taylorsville, and West Valley, over 45 percent of both non-Hispanic white and Hispanic renter households below 50 percent HAMFI have severe housing problems.

If they have needs not identified above, what are those needs?

Affordable Housing Needs and Protected Classes

The most critical unmet housing needs are concentrated in the very low and extremely low income households. These households comprise a significant share of the county’s population. One-in-four households in the county have incomes below 50 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI). Of the 355,000 households in Salt Lake County in 2012, 88,750 were households with very low income; $35,000 or less for a family of four. There were over 53,000 households with extremely low income, approximately $21,000 or less for a family of four Table 1. Again these households are much more likely to be renter households of protected classes.

Are any of those racial or ethnic groups located in specific areas or neighborhoods in your community?

Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 35 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015) Section 504 Needs Assessment: Describe the needs of public housing tenants and applicants on the waiting list for accessible units:

The Housing Authority of the County of Salt Lake has continued to work on meeting the goals of a Voluntary Compliance Agreement (VCA) with regard to a Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS) assessment, which identified the need for accessibility adaptations of units and common areas within the HACSL developments. The Housing Authority has made progress in providing compliant and functional access in its buildings to individuals with disabilities. At this point, 5 percent of HACSL's public housing units are wheelchair accessible.

What are the number and type of families on the waiting lists for public housing and section 8 tenant-based rental assistance? Based on the information above, and any other information available to the jurisdiction, what are the most immediate needs of residents of public housing and Housing Choice voucher holders?

The mission of the Housing Authority of the County of Salt Lake is to provide and develop quality affordable housing opportunities for individuals and families while promoting self-sufficiency and neighborhood revitalization.

HACSL has streamlined its application process by creating an online common application allowing applicants to enter in their information once and have it pre-populate into programs of their choosing.

The Housing Authority of the County of Salt Lake regularly updates its waiting list and has it organized in a manner that allows HACSL to accurately identify and select families in the proper order, according to its admission policies.

Currently the public housing waiting list is closed and HACSL is not accepting applications for this program. At this time there are 7,670 individuals on the public housing waiting list with an average wait time of 3 years. The elderly/disabled waiting lists have 801/811 individuals on the waiting list with an average wait time of 18 months. Before the waiting list is scheduled to reopen, notice will be provided to the public.

How do these needs compare to the housing needs of the population at large

Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 36 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015) The cutback in funding, coupled with continuing rise in need for rental assistance for low income households, has helped cause the rise in homelessneeds. Various agencies working together to reduce chronic homelessness has bee successful, in the last year the number of homelessness has increased. Overall the need for rental assistance for low income households far exceeds what is available.

Discussion

HACSL works to preserve and improve existing buildings and grounds through the preventative maintenance and capital fund programs. To prevent and reduce crime, HACSL contracts with the Unified Police Department to provide community policing in all of its developments. HACSL has implemented smoke free policies within its family developments and works to develop service components for residents to promote self-sufficiency so they may maintain their apartments independently.

In addition, HACSL submitted two applications for the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program. Under RAD, these sites would have the ability to be rehabbed and/or demolished and a new development initiated.

The Rental Assistance Demonstration Program is a new HUD demonstration program in which Housing Authorities, if approved, can convert their Public Housing properties into Section 8 Project Based Voucher properties. As Public Housing properties, PHAS do not have the ability to borrow against these properties to make needed repairs; but under this program, the owner has the ability to borrow funds against the property provided they are able to perform moving forward in order to meet its new debt service requirements

The County has continued the partnerships that were started in 2012 consisting of the State of Utah and its State Homeless Coordinating Committee, the State Discharge Planning Committee, the Salt Lake/Tooele Continuum of Care, Salt Lake City and local homeless service providers, including The Road Home, Salt Lake Community Action Program, Salt Lake County Homeless Coordinating Council and other local nonprofit organizations that provide homeless services, to ensure increased access to mainstream services. This partnership has allowed all of the homeless service programs to better coordinate efforts and streamline policies and goals to determine the best ways to increase access to mainstream services for our homeless populations.

This continued coordination provides access to public, private and nonprofit agencies that address housing, health, social services, victim services, employment and education needs, homelessness of individuals and families, homeless veterans, chronically homeless persons and families and correctional facilities and other institutions that may discharge people into homelessness. Through stronger connections to the Continuum of Care and its members, Salt Lake County, along with its State and City partners, is in a better position to establish the means to provide needed services to those individuals and families suffering from or threatened with homelessness.

The Continuum of Care is supported by Salt Lake County and is comprised of more than 70 public, private and nonprofit organizations and individuals interested in homeless issues and/or that provide services to the homeless. The major Continuum of Care-wide planning committees includes the Long Range Planning Committee, State Homeless Coordinating Committee, Salt Lake County Homeless Coordinating Council, State Discharge Planning Committee and the Utah Homeless Management Information Steering Committee.

NA-45 Non-Homeless Special Needs Assessment - 91.405, 91.205 (b,d) Introduction

The Needs identified in this section include additional rental units that are Type A Accessible for wheelchair access; Better education for landlords regarding occupancy guidelines to address the housing needs for large families with children as well as the requirements for making reasonable accommodations for persons with disabilities. Supportive services include case management, crisis services and counseling, health services, legal services, education and training, employment, service for at risk youth and housing services. These services have been determined by the County to reach the identified outcomes of preventing homelessness, strengthen families and proving crisis services.

Describe the characteristics of special needs populations in your community:

The characteristics of the special needs populations are varied. In 2010, 8 percent of the County's population meets the definition of disabled; an estimated 83,600 unique individuals. Many disabled individuals suffer from more than one disability. The number of individuals with ambulatory difficulty was 38,350, with self-care limitations 15,050, independent living difficulties 27,675, and cognitive difficulty 33,650. Seniors (65 years and more) comprise 37 percent of the disabled population. Special Needs populations also include victims of rape and sexual assault and their families, Limited English speaking adults, pre-literate refugee adults and families, individuals living with a diagnosis of severe and persistent mental illness, and individuals and families dealing with substance abuse issues.

What are the housing and supportive service needs of these populations and how are these needs determined?

In May 2014 the Bureau of Economic & Business Research provided the Regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice for Salt Lake County. In doing this project, they also completed the Fair Housing Equity Assessment. This research has provided much of the data for this section regarding the housing and supportive services needs of the special needs populations in our County. The FHEA indicates that for those individuals that require Type A accessibility, due primarily to use of a wheelchair, demand exceeds supply. Education for landlords regarding the protected classes and fair occupancy guidelines is needed to address the housing need for large families with children and the requirements to make reasonable accommodations for persons with disabilities. There is a need for more rental housing for large families. The types of supportive services for individuals with special needs include case management, crisis services and counseling, health services, legal services, education and training, employment, services for at risk youth and housing services. These services have been determined by the County to reach the identified outcomes of preventing homelessness, strengthen families and providing crisis services.

Discuss the size and characteristics of the population with HIV/AIDS and their families within the Eligible Metropolitan Statistical Area:

Currently there are 1,949 cumulative cases of AIDS and 1,882 persons living with HIV reported in the Salt Lake MSA. These numbers come from the CDC HIV Surveillance. There are several types of housing assistance through the HOPWA Assistance program designated or available for people with HIV/AIDS and their families. Information in this section provided by Salt Lake City - HOPWA Grantee for the Salt Lake City MSA.

Discussion:

Salt Lake County will continue to work on improving outcomes. The variouse initiatives including Collective Impact, Green & Healthy Homes, Sustainability efforts and Regional Analysis of Impediments and the various partners working together including the State of Utah is a significant efforts to make a difference and have better outcomes.

NA-50 Non-Housing Community Development Needs - 91.415, 91.215 (f) Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Facilities:

Many of the facilities that are owned or occupied by agencies that provide the services needed to meet the outcomes identified for the Consolidated Plan period are in need of improvements in order to provide these services. The criteria needed for these types of improvements are identified in the Request for Proposal each year with all the requirements listed for the grant funding.

Agencies who provide services may apply for funding for physical improvements to their facilities; however, please be aware that a deed restriction will be placed on properties improved with these funds for a minimum of five to fifteen years depending on the funding amount to ensure the building is used for an eligible CDBG activity. If the agency does not own the building, it must have a lease agreement for not less than 5 years. Agencies applying for “Facility Improvements” need to identify if the improvements are required to meet existing building codes, are required for health and safety reasons or if the improvement is required to provide the program services. Agencies must demonstrate a facility improvement need is not fulfilling a preventive measure. General Maintenance and repair of a building would not be considered an eligible expense under CDBG guidelines.

How were these needs determined?

The funding priorities and needs for public facility improvements are a result of a comprehensive analysis which factored in literature reviews of multiple needs assessments, the public needs hearing process and internal stakeholder meetings. A strong emphasis has been placed on meeting performance measurements and outcomes for the Consolidated Plan term. The information from the Fair Housing Equity Assessment is also included in how the needs are determined. Agencies that are working in areas that have low opportunity and are providing services to underserved populations are able to receive higher scores and rankings through the evaluation criteria for submitted proposals.

Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Improvements:

Projects submitted under Infrastructure Improvements must be located within the Urban County and be located in a CDBG eligible census tract with the exception of ADA Improvements. ADA Improvements can be made anywhere in the Urban County to allow for accessibility for persons with disabilities. Salt Lake County also supports activities that promote Healthy Communities and Expanding services to underserved communities as identified by CRD service level analysis.

The funding priorities and needs for public improvments are a result of a comprehensive analysis which factored in literature reviews of multiple needs assessments, the public needs hearing process and

Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 45 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

internal stakeholder meetings. A strong emphasis has been placed on meeting performance measurements and outcomes for the Consolidated Plan term. The information from the Fair Housing Equity Assessment is also used in determining the needs for public improvements. Areas that have been identified as low opportunity cities and neighborhoods meet a higher need that areas that have high opportunity. Access to housing, transportation, employment, health services, school proficiency, food deserts and childcare are just a few of the areas that are used in the criteria for low opportunity.

Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Services:

The funding priorities for community and support services that have been established are directly linked to the outcomes which Salt Lake County is seeking to effect in our community. Eligible services will be funded for programs that can show progress towards the specified outcomes through established performance indicators.

ACCESS TO CRISIS SERVICES: Homeless to be Housed; HOUSING: Choice in Housing Options; ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE OR SUPPORT: Individuals and Families to be Self-Supported through Sufficient Earnings and Dependency to be Reduced or Eliminated; STABILITY AND SAFETY: Individuals and Families to be Stabilized and Safe; Dependency to be Reduced or Eliminated.

Salt Lake County is also promoting the following initiatives, which are often addressed by programs that provide community and support services. If applicable, Community Resources and Development encourages agencies to demonstrate how proposed projects align with these efforts: Neighborhood Revitalization; Healthy Communities; and Expanding services to underserved communities as identified by CRD service level analysis.

How were these needs determined?

Salt Lake County is responding to the demand for increased accountability for taxpayer dollars through a commitment to evidence-based outcomes. Community and Support Services Programs (Public Services) that receive funding must be prepared to utilize standardized measurement tools, and to collect and report on data that demonstrates measurable short-term progress towards long-term outcomes. It is anticipated that grant recipients will be able to track achievements within their programs, and that successes related to common indicators will ultimately be substantiated across service delivery systems.

In 2013, Salt Lake County completed a needs assessment to gain a better understanding of the needs of low-to moderate income households in the county. The Mayor and the Division of Community Resources and Development have used this information to prioritize the allocation of the limited resources available through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding received by Salt Lake County. It included an extensive review of prior needs assessments and was an inclusive process involving agency and public feedback which identified the top four needs of LMI households in Salt Lake

Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 46 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

County. The needs assessment identified four areas of highest priority of low-to-moderate income (LMI) residents of Salt Lake County. The needs identified through this process where incorporated into the Salt Lake County Consolidated Plan. It is used to determine the funding priorities for the Community Development Block Grant. The objectives and outcomes outlined in the Consolidated Plan are Decent Housing & Affordability; Suitable Living Environment-Availability & Accessibility; and Creating Economic Opportunity & Sustainability. In 2014 the Division of Community Resources and Development sought feedback from invested stakeholders on the continued relevancy of the four highest priority needs identified in preparation of the release of the CDBG Request for Proposals through an online survey and found the priorities were unchanged. The highest priority needs were still Housing; Health & Safety; Food and Education & Income.

Housing Market Analysis

MA-05 Overview Housing Market Analysis Overview:

The Salt Lake Valley housing market has finally recovered from the bust brought on by the Great Recession, a local analyst said. Jim Wood, director of the University of Utah’s Bureau of Business and Economic Research, said home sales are on the rise. Wood predicted that housing price increases this year would be in the 5 percent to 7 percent range, just a bit higher than the historic average of 4 percent. Additionally, sales of single-family homes are projected to increase by 7 percent as improving economic conditions free up pent-up demand for housing, he said.

A national state-by-state status report on rental housing puts data behind what residents have been saying for years: When it comes to Utah's rental market, they can't make it here any more.

According to the National Low Income Housing Coalition, a family in Utah must earn $29,459 a year or $14.16 per hour to afford a modest two-bedroom, $736-a-month rental. That's 216 percent of the $6.55 minimum that average low-income earners make in the state.

Without assistance, the gap between what people in low-wage jobs earn and what rental housing costs in Utah is simply impossible to bridge, said Tara Rollins, executive director of the Utah Housing Coalition, which provided data for the report.

The Out of Reach report assesses the relationship between rental housing costs and the capacity of low- wage earners to pay for it.

"The numbers back what we've been saying the past five years," Rollins said. "Housing costs continue to rise to levels far beyond the reach of low-income workers."

Since 2005, the affordable hourly wage has increased from $12.95 to a little more than $14, she said.

State and local elected officials won't be surprised by the report, Rollins said, but "any effort to help ease the burden low-income Utahns face is basically already spoken for."

additionally because of the decrease in vacancy rates rental rates are going up when the amount and availablity of rental assistance has decreased. As a result of this the number of homeless has increased.

Describe the number and targeting (income level/type of family served) of units assisted with federal, state, and local programs.

Provide an assessment of units expected to be lost from the affordable housing inventory for any reason, such as expiration of Section 8 contracts.

It is anticipated that there will be few if any affordable housing units lost. Several developers like Utah Nonprofit Housing Corporation have worked hard on ensuring affordable housing units are not lost.

Does the availability of housing units meet the needs of the population?

Describe the need for specific types of housing:

Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 51 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

What the available data show is that small non-elderly families and non-elderly non-families (often one person households) are much more likely to experience moderate and severe cost burdens than large families. Studio, one and two bedroom housing units are most suitable for these types of families suffering from housing problems.

HOPWA vouchers have been the most effective tool for addressing housing problems of this population. Currently for HIV/AIDS individuals there are 76 HOPWA vouchers, 36 shelter+care vouchers and 10 housing units in Salt Lake County. The strategy to meet the supply gap and future needs should be to increase the number of HOPWA vouchers.

Domestic violence: Therefore, over the new year the inventory of beds for crisis and extended stays by victims of domestic violence will increase from 132 beds (South Valley Sanctuary 57 beds and YWCA 75 beds) to 238 beds. Before considering any more beds the occupancy rate of these new beds should evaluated over the next few years

Discussion

Demographic Changes –The need for affordable housing will accelerate as the county’s minority population increases. From 2000 to 2010 the minority population in the county increased by 56 percent while the total population increased by 14.6 percent. At the same time the Hispanic population increased by 64 percent. Over the decade nearly three quarters of the population growth in the county was due to the increase in the minority population. Minority households have a greater likelihood of being moderate to low income renter households. This demographic trend will put increased pressure on the supply of available affordable rental housing.

In addition to the growth of the minority population, the growth of a specific household type; single women with children under 18 years of age, will likely add disproportionately to the demand for affordable rental housing. In Salt Lake County, over the last ten years this household type increased by 6,700 households or 22 percent. This household type is likely a moderate to low income housing in need of affordable rental housing.

Another fast growing population group is the Senior population. The number of Seniors over 65 years is expected to increase by 30 percent in the next ten years and those over 85 will increase by 27 percent or an additional 3,200 individuals. While Seniors are not a protected class nearly half of all individuals over 75 years suffer from some disability. The increase in the Senior population will expand the need for residential care facilities as well as accessible rental units.

MA-15 Housing Market Analysis: Cost of Housing - 91.410, 91.210(a) Introduction

The improved economy has brought out, and helped cause a rise in the demand for rental housing units, vacancy rates are the lowes they have been in about 10 years. The rise in rents is related to the increased demand and slow growth in the number of apartments being developed and built.

Is there sufficient housing for households at all income levels?

See Appendix 1 and 2 for more description of the needs that are not being met. The greatest unmet need is for more afforable housing units for low to very low income households

How is affordability of housing likely to change considering changes to home values and/or rents?

The good of the stronger economy is that there is more income and more jobs. The challenge for economic growht is that as the demand for housing units increased the vacancy rate decreases and rents go up. Secondly the demand for housing is now driving up the price of single family housing units. The Analysis of Impediments documented that in Salt Lake County the distribution of the development and building of rental housing has improved. This in turn helps meet some of the needs in all of the county.

How do HOME rents / Fair Market Rent compare to Area Median Rent? How might this impact your strategy to produce or preserve affordable housing?

Currently the fair market rents for one and two bedroom units are the same as the rent limit for HOME rents. It is anticipated over the next five years with the shortage of rental units and the increasing demand that the rents will begin to go up. The five year strategy will be to support whenever possible the development and construciton of new rental units.

MA-20 Housing Market Analysis: Condition of Housing - 91.410, 91.210(a) Introduction

On November 28, 2012, the Green & Healthy Homes Initiative Salt Lake Coalition has formed. Since we began this program through CDBG, HOME and Lead Based Paint Hazard Control and Healthy Homes funding we have made at least 210 housing healthy and safe. Our priority is to help those families who have the greatest need based on the assessment of the home and the health of the family. A part of the program is about providing education often through social media.

Describe the jurisdiction's definition for "substandard condition" and "substandard condition but suitable for rehabilitation:

Subtandard condition is defined by the assessment of a home, through the use of the Green & Healthy Homes Initiative Assessment tool, radon gas testing, lead based paint testing, energy effiicency assessment and other testing as needed.

Substandard condition but suitable for rehabilitation depends on the assessment above and whether the cost to rehabilitated exceeds 50% to 75% of the value of the home.

Describe mainstream services, such as health, mental health, and employment services to the extent those services are use to complement services targeted to homeless persons

The Federal and State governments have developed/administer a variety of mainstream service programs designed to help people maintain their independence. This includes, but is not limited to:

 Health – Medicaid, Medicare, CHIP  Mental Health - SSDI  Employment – TANF, Child Care Assistance

The above mainstream services can be a significant resources for homeless persons. The Salt Lake County homeless housing and service delivery system supports this access through the following activities:

 Case Managers receive SOAR training – SOAR is a national program designed to increase access to disability income benefit programs for eligible adults who are experiencing or at risk for homelessness  Access to safe, affordable housing – some benefits include having a permanent address as an eligibility criteria; outreach and Shelter staff work to help homeless persons access safe, affordable housing with supportive services  Use of TANF funds to provide Rapid Rehousing assistance to homeless families

List and describe services and facilities that meet the needs of homeless persons, particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth. If the services and facilities are listed on screen SP-40 Institutional Delivery Structure or screen MA-35 Special Needs Facilities and Services, describe how these facilities and services specifically address the needs of these populations.

The Salt Lake County homeless housing and service delivery system has adopted HUD’s goal of ending Veteran Homelessness by 2015, ending Chronic Homelessness by 2017, and ending Family and Youth homelessness by 2020. In support of these goals, multiple facilities have been developed in Salt Lake County to end homeless for these populations by providing them with safe, affordable housing with on- site access to services. This includes:

 Homeless Veterans - Project Based Grant Per Diem and Permanent Supportive Housing project including: Freedom Landing, Sunrise Metro, and Valor House.

Five-year projections of change in the number of households with moderate and severe cost burdens are presented in this section. These projections are made for households with incomes at <30% AMI, 30-50% AMI and 50%-80% AMI. The types of households included are: owner, renter, elderly (62-74 years) extra elder (75 years+) and households with a disabled individual.

Cost Burdens

Owners – the categories of owners that currently have the greatest housing gap and greatest need are the very low income owner and moderate income owner. Sixty-seven percent of very low income owners have severe cost burdens; a total in 2010 of 6,781 households. Over the next five years households in these groups with severe cost burdens will increase by 750-800 households. In 2010 13,528 moderate income home owners had moderate cost burdens, the highest number of households by cost burden for any income group or family type in Table 28 and Table 30. The number of these households will increase between 1,525 and 1,575 households by 2015.

Projections have been made for two scenarios. Scenario 1 assumes that over the next five years rental housing will capture a larger share of occupied units. This assumption is derived from current housing market conditions which are making home ownership more difficult for many households due to weakness in the job market, tighter lending guidelines, increased foreclosures and the decline in credit worthiness of households. These conditions will likely lead to an increase in the demand for rental units. Scenario 1 assumes that the share of rentals in the study area will increase from 23 percent in 2010 to 25 percent in 2015. Owner occupied units will drop from 77 percent to 75 percent of total occupied units. Scenario 2 assumes no change between 2010 and 2015 in the share of renter to owner occupied units; holding the current 23 percent to 77 percent ratio constant.

Including the elderly, frail elderly, persons with disabilities (mental, physical, developmental), persons with alcohol or other drug addictions, persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, public housing residents and any other categories the jurisdiction may specify, and describe their supportive housing needs

Victims of Domestic Violence-There are two facilities in Salt Lake County that provide housing services for victims of domestic violence; South Valley Sanctuary (West Jordan) and the Salt Lake City YWCA. Demand for crisis and extended housing exceeds the supply. Both facilities had to refer clients to other housing options in 2009 due to full occupancy. In response to this condition the YWCA has just expanded their 75 bed facility by 31 beds and are in the process of beginning construction on a new structure that will added another 75 beds. Therefore, over the new year the inventory of beds for crisis and extended stays by victims of domestic violence will increase from 132 beds (South Valley Sanctuary 57 beds and YWCA 75 beds) to 238 beds. Before considering any more beds the occupancy rate of these new beds should evaluated over the next few years.

HIV/AIDS-The housing director for HIV/AIDS at the Salt Lake Community Action Program maintains that this special needs population would be best served by increases in the number of rental units willing to take tenants with multiple problems including HIV/AIDS. Units targeted solely for HIV/AIDS are not the best solution due to stigma attached to units. HOPWA vouchers have been the most effective tool for addressing housing problems of this population. Currently for HIV/AIDS individuals there are 76 HOPWA vouchers, 36 shelter+care vouchers and 10 housing units in Salt Lake County. The strategy to meet the supply gap and future needs should be to increase the number of HOPWA vouchers.

Describe programs for ensuring that persons returning from mental and physical health institutions receive appropriate supportive housing

Mental Health: In 2014, Valley Mental Health served 12,400 adults. Of these adults, 77percent were either at or below poverty level. Valley Mental Health currently owns or manages 15 apartment complexes with 287 total units housing 324 individuals. Valley Mental Health has an additional 170 clients who utilize vouchers. Valley Mental Health receives 4-6 housing referrals per week, for a total of 260 per year. At least half cannot be placed in housing due to no openings. This leaves 130 per year un- housed. For Case Management of the 12,400 adult clients seen, 7,900 met the criteria for seriously and persistently mentally ill. Of the 7,900, 1,021 received case management services leaving 6,879 who would likely benefit from case management.

• Homeless Veterans - Project Based Grant Per Diem and Permanent Supportive Housing project including: Freedom Landing, Sunrise Metro, and Valor House. Programs are operated in partnership with the VA and local Housing Authority. Residents have access to VA and Housing Authority sponsored case management and supportive services.

Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 98 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

• Chronically Homeless – Project Based Permanent Supportive Housing projects including: Grace Mary Manor, Kelly Benson Apartments, Sunrise Metro, and Palmer Court. Projects utilize the housing first model. Residents have access to on-site case management and supportive services.

• Homeless families - Project Based Permanent Supportive Housing projects including: Palmer Court and Bud Bailey Apartments. Projects utilized the housing first model and have on-site case management and supportive services.

• Homeless Youth – Project Based Transitional Housing projects include: Young Men’s Transition House and Young Women’s Transition House. Residents have access to on-site case management and supportive services focused on self-sufficiency.

Describe the strengths and gaps of the service delivery system for special needs population and persons experiencing homelessness, including, but not limited to, the services listed above

The major strength of the homeless services delivery system in Salt Lake County is the widespread adoption of the “Housing First” philosophies by Permanent Housing projects; both Permanent Supportive Housing as well as Rapid Rehousing. Housing First includes access to safe affordable housing with minimum entry barriers. It also includes regular access to flexible case management and other supportive services designed to increase housing stability and self-sufficiency. Participation in services is voluntary. This has led to a Statewide 91% decrease in Chronic Homelessness since 2005.

Although the homeless housing and service delivery system in Salt Lake County, there continues to be a gap in services for homeless subpopulations not included in the federal homeless goals. The federal homeless goals include ending: Veteran, Chronic, Family, and Youth homelessness. Additional resources are needed to meet the housing and service needs of Non-Veteran Homeless households without children.

SP-50 Public Housing Accessibility and Involvement - 91.415, 91.215(c) Need to Increase the Number of Accessible Units (if Required by a Section 504 Voluntary Compliance Agreement)

The Housing Authority has made progress in providing compliant and functional access in its buildings to individuals with disabilities. At this point, 5 percent of HACSL's public housing units are wheelchair accessible.

Activities to Increase Resident Involvements

The Housing Authority of the County of Salt Lake works to increase resident involvement in program and policies decisions. A Resident Advisory Board (RAB) represents all of the developments and Section 8 Voucher holders living in Salt Lake County and deals with management at the executive level. The RAB serves to represent the views and concerns of HACSL residents and is one of the ways HACSL receives input about policies and procedures that affect residents. This input helps to ensure that policies are balanced and serve the needs and interests of residents, HACSL and the community.

Two of the larger properties have their own tenant association, with board members elected by and consisting solely of residents. The residents meet to discuss such issues as community policy, individual resident concerns and strategies to address such concerns. The tenant associations also plan social functions for the resident community.

The Salt Lake County 10 Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness includes the following objectives related to helping homeless persons make the transition to permanent housing and independent living.

Facilitating Access for Homeless Individuals and Families to Affordable Housing Units:

 Ensure Housing Sensitive Decisions in Salt Lake County: Create a common database of existing housing stock. If units are lost they must be replaced so that no net loss occurs and Salt Lake County gains rather than loses housing.  Increase Public Sector Funding Partnerships in Affordable Housing: Recent cuts in HUD Section 8 housing vouchers and lack of support for private sector housing initiatives must be reversed. Sustain federal, state, local and private funding to support all services necessary for permanent supportive housing.  Increase Housing for People Escaping Homelessness by 1200 units: Increase the supply of permanent supportive housing by 600 units by end of 10 year plan; expand rental subsidies throughout Salt Lake County by 600 units by end of 10 year plan.

Shortening the Period of Time People Experience Homelessness:

 Rapidly Re-house People Who Have Become Homeless: First time shelter users re-housed within 90 days of becoming homeless

Preventing People Who Were Recently Homeless from Becoming Homeless Again:

Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 112 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

 Increase Supportive Services to Support New Housing Units: New housing units must have related supportive services to ensure success.

Help low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families who are likely to become homeless after being discharged from a publicly funded institution or system of care, or who are receiving assistance from public and private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education or youth needs

The Salt Lake County 10 Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness includes an objective related to preventing homelessness, especially those being discharged from institutions:

 Discharging People into Homelessness: Ensure all persons discharged from jail, prison, hospital, and treatment facilities have a home to go to. Expand homeless prevention services with 100 new treatment beds, 40 additional case managers, and coordination between agencies.

SP-65 Lead-based Paint Hazards - 91.415, 91.215(i) Actions to address LBP hazards and increase access to housing without LBP hazards

Lead Safe Housing Program: To successfully implement the lead safe housing program it is critical that coordination exist between Salt Lake County, Salt Lake Valley Health Department, Salt Lake City, State of Utah, and Community Development Corporation of Utah.

Based on a analysis of census data it is estimated that there are 13,400 housing units with lead hazards, with children under the age of six living in them, and whose household income is at or below 80 percent of median income

How are the actions listed above related to the extent of lead poisoning and hazards?

The need is great; Salt Lake County has a large number of young children, thousands of pre-1940 rental housing units, and many households at, or below 50percent of the area median income. Based upon Census data:

• There are 94,835 children under the age of six living in Salt Lake County, 11percent of the population

• There are 11,267 of pre 1940 rental housing units, 12.4percent of the total number of rental housing

• There are 18,673 of pre 1940 single family homes, 9.2percent of the total

number of single family homes

• There are 186,095 of pre 1980 owner and renter occupied housing units

• There are 63,183 Households at or below 50percent which is 21.1percent of the total number of households

• There are 121,337 Households at or below 80percent which is 40.4percent of the total number of householdsildren continue to be identified with elevated blood lead levels in our community.

How are the actions listed above integrated into housing policies and procedures?

Consolidated Plan SALT LAKE COUNTY 114 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

In order to address these critical needs, the ultimate goal of the Salt Lake County Lead Safe Salt Lake Housing Program is to provide lead hazard control assistance to 500 housing units, which will enable the program to make the housing lead-safe for 1,000 children under the age of six.

Salt Lake County has been allocated $2.5 million in lead and healthy homes funding. This funding will over the next three years try and meet the following objectives:

• Select, qualify, enroll, and make lead safe 250 low to moderate income housing units in targeted neighborhoods.

• Increase the integration of lead-safe projects into the weatherization, rehabilitation and Energy Star programs.

• Increase the involvement of community based organizations such as the Housing Coalition and Community Health of Magna. Perform community outreach and education with faith-based organizations and other community based organizations to increase awareness and enroll housing units.

• Provide training to increase the number of contractors and workers.

• Do outreach among the Housing Authorities to recruit possible contractors and workers. Perform outreach to low income neighborhoods and housing authorities on the availability of jobs and training for lead related work and contracts.

Units will be made lead safe by using a combination of interim controls and abatement techniques. Emphasis will be placed on interim controls with ongoing efforts to control costs and maximize the use of grant funds. A typical abatement technique is window replacement and is done when it is not economically feasible to repair the building component.

The overall effort in this years allocation of funds is to help improve the outcomes to address and mitigate those factors that have (1) perpetuated the concentration of protected classes within a few communities in Salt Lake County and (2) are currently barriers to limiting fair housing choice and opportunity. Essential background to AI is the affordable housing needs of protected classes, particularly the need for affordable rental housing. Estimates of the needs establish the housing hardship many protected classes experience. Affordable housing needs are, in part, a consequence of impediments to housing choice, which are identified and discussed in this summary followed by the listing of major impediments for entitlement jurisdictions. In almost all cases the impediments listed affect all members of protected classes but particularly minority, disabled and large family households.

AP-60 Public Housing - 91.420, 91.220(h) Introduction

The supply of rent assisted units, however is far short of the need. The HUD CHAS for Salt Lake County gives an estimate of nearly 20,000 renter households that are very low income, with no rental assistance and severe housing cost burden—more than 50 percent of their income devoted to housing. These very low income, severely cost burdened households include nearly 7,000 minority households, 2,800 households with a disabled individual and 1,500 large family households Table 3. The need for affordable rental housing for these protected class households is acute. Identification and mitigation of housing impediments is paramount to improving their housing choice and opportunity.

Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing

Discussion

The need for affordable rental housing for these protected class households is acute. Identification and mitigation of housing impediments is paramount to improving their housing choice and opportunity. Salt Lake County will continue to work with the Housing Authorities to help improve the management of the programs and find ways to increase the amount of rental assistance available.

Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs

As mentioned above Salt Lake County Homeless effort is basedon the concept of Housing First. The Homeless Coordinating Council meets and coordinates efforts to reach out to the homeless and then assessing their needs.

Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons

The Salt Lake County 10 Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness includes the following objectives related to addressing the emergency and transitional housing needs of homeless persons:

 Implement and Use the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS): Track costs, service usage rates, housing placements and related data on a person-specific basis.  Focus on Outcomes and Adjust Resources Accordingly: Produce and use quarterly publication of

data and outcomes and distribute to all stakeholders to assess and adjust priorities through a strong collaborative inter-organizational process.

Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs.

The Regional AI identifies those factors that have (1) perpetuated the concentration of protected classes within a few communities in Salt Lake County and (2) are currently barriers to limiting fair housing choice and opportunity. Essential background to AI is the affordable housing needs of protected classes, particularly the need for affordable rental housing. Estimates of the needs establish the housing hardship many protected classes experience.

In almost all cases the impediments listed affect all members of protected classes but particularly minority, disabled and large family households.

Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment

The attached Appendix 1 Barriers to affordable housing lists the current barriers to the development of more affordable housing especially for the protected classess and very low income households. The Action plan for the Analsysis of Impediments should be completed by the end of July 2015.

AP-85 Other Actions - 91.420, 91.220(k) Introduction

As stated in Appendix 1

Undoubtedly there are powerful underlying economic and demographic forces at work leading to greater concentrations of minority and poor populations, significant disparities of opportunity and major impediments to fair housing choice. For the most part these forces are independent of policies and practices of local governments and the action plans set forth in consolidated plans. It’s generally accepted that economic and demographic forces—income, employment, housing prices and to a lesser extent population trends—reflect conditions of supply and demand. While these forces may be largely independent of local policies and practices there are cases where local public policy can have rather significant impacts on local economic conditions, particularly housing prices.

Income – Probably the factor with the most widespread impact on fair housing choice and access to opportunity is income. For thirty years the Utah economy and households have struggled with relatively low wages.

Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs

Salt Lake County in this year’s allocation of funds placed a high priority on the development of a more effective allocation process to help improve the quality of and value of outcomes to be achieved. See Appendix 2 Public process for more description of the efforts taken to improve the allocation of CDBG and other funding. This effort coupled with the efforts for Collective Impact for homeless, with the Green & Healthy Homes Initiative, the development of Pay for Success Initiatives, the implementation of the Sustainable Grant planning, and the development and implementation of a Regional Analysis of Impediments Action Plan will all help address and mitigate the obstacles to become better at meeting

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 146 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

underserved needs.

Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing

Salt Lake County through the use of HOME funds has helped finance the development and improvement of 58 rental housing developments with over 2,000 rental units. HOME funds will continue to be critical in helping support and bring together funding for special needs rental housing developments. Over the five years it is anticipated that at least five more rental housing developments will be funded and completed. These projects will include housing for the homeless, seniors and other special needs. Additionally the implementation of the Green & Healthy Homes Initiative Salt Lake will support through funding and education the importance of preservation of existing housing and making homes as healthy as possible.

Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards

Salt Lake County is currently administering a $2.5 million Lead Based Hazard Control and Healthy Homes Grant. By August of 2016 this three year grant will have funded the mitigation and control of lead based paint hazards in 250 homes. Additionally a key component of the Green & Healthy Homes Salt Lake Initiative is ensuring each home assisted will be lead safe, radon gas free, energy efficient and healthy.

Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families

Several initiatives are occurring to help reduce the number of poverty level families. It is a difficult challenge. The improvement in the economy has increased the number of jobs that are available. The Collective Impact for Homelessness is part of an effort to more effectively help low income households become self-sufficient. Improving the health of homes through Green & Healthy Homes Initiative helps low income families with severely sick children to become more stable, able to keep jobs and the children to attend school.

Actions planned to develop institutional structure

Salt Lake County is a national leader in the development and use of Pay for Success/Social Investment Bond financing as a way to meet some of the most critical needs in the community and have more effective outcomes. Salt Lake County supported the development and implementation of Pay for Success investment in improving after school programs and this effort helped improved the reading levels which in turn improve attendance and graduation. Green & Healthy Homes, Homelessness, improving the opportunities for the ones coming out jail, and healthy children are other initiatives that will receive funding through Pay for Success/social investment bonds that will help further develop

institutional structure.

Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies

About four years ago Salt Lake County received a Sustainable Communities Planning Grant. After three years a number of issues were resolved and initiatives started to take an integrated regional approach for meeting the current and future needs of housing, transportation, economic development and investment decisions. Impediments to fair housing choice are common impediments shared by most cities within the region. The most effective mitigation to these common impediments is a coordinated, shared approach by the cities in the region. Collaboration between service providers and jurisdictions to develop a regional approach has been developed and is being further developed. The Collective Impact Initiative for homelessness and the Green & Healthy Homes Initiative are two other examples of coordinated and integrated approaches that will be used to improve coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies.

Discussion

The Sustainable Communities Planning Grant is a multi-agency program to encourage the integration of housing, transportation and economic development decision on a regional basis. HUD’s goal is to raise the priority of housing in the capital investment decision making process. Locally the relevant agencies for coordination are Wasatch Front Regional Council (MPO), Envision Utah, Utah Transit Authority and Utah Department of Transportation. The housing and transportation needs of protected classes, who are disproportionately public transit dependent, will be a high priority in decisions regarding public transit investments, schedules, routes and fees. More attention will be given to work on making sure there is equitable housing choices. The transit needs of protected classes in the long range planning of these agencies is also a major part of these efforts.

Other CDBG Requirements

1. The amount of urgent need activities 0

2. The estimated percentage of CDBG funds that will be used for activities that benefit persons of low and moderate income.Overall Benefit - A consecutive period of one, two or three years may be used to determine that a minimum overall benefit of 70% of CDBG funds is used to benefit persons of low and moderate income. Specify the years covered that include this Annual Action Plan. 98.00%

HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) Reference 24 CFR 91.220(l)(2) 1. A description of other forms of investment being used beyond those identified in Section 92.205 is as follows:

For GHHI Salt Lake HOME funds have been combined with foundation, donated labor and materials,

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 149 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

and other short term financing provided through industrical banks.

For rental housing developments, the most common other funding consists of Low Income Housing Tax Credits, and the State of Utah Olene Walker funding

2. A description of the guidelines that will be used for resale or recapture of HOME funds when used for homebuyer activities as required in 92.254, is as follows:

Resale/Recapture Restrictions and Long-Term Affordability Resale Provisions: See 24 CFR 92.254(a)(4). One of the purposes of the HOME program is to increase the supply of affordable housing units over an extended period of time. To this end, first time home buyer units must remain affordable from 5 to 15 years (depending on amount of assistance). If the original first-time home buyer retains title to the property for the full period of affordability, no resale/recapture provisions apply.

However if the property is transferred during the period of affordability, the Salt Lake County will assure continued affordability in one of two ways:

1. Salt Lake County can recapture the entire amount of the HOME investment from the homebuyer upon sale of the property during the period of affordability.

2. Salt Lake County and the homebuyer will share the net proceeds based upon the ratio of the HOME subsidy to the sum of the homebuyer's investment plus the HOME subsidy.

3. A description of the guidelines for resale or recapture that ensures the affordability of units acquired with HOME funds? See 24 CFR 92.254(a)(4) are as follows:

Creation of another affordable housing unit: Salt Lake County will recapture the HOME assistance (as per the three options listed previously) from the original buyer and invest it in another homebuyer unit.

Sale of the property to another low income buyer who will use it as their principal residence: The Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 150 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

sale of the property must be at a price which allows for a "fair return on equity" in addition to being affordable to the "subsequent low-income buyer." To remain affordable the mortgage payment must not exceed 30 percent of their gross income. There will be a deed restriction that requires the owner to have Community Development Corporation review and approve the transaction.

4. Plans for using HOME funds to refinance existing debt secured by multifamily housing that is rehabilitated with HOME funds along with a description of the refinancing guidelines required that will be used under 24 CFR 92.206(b), are as follows:

There are no plans to use HOME funds to help refinance

Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Reference 91.220(l)(4)

1. Include written standards for providing ESG assistance (may include as attachment)

We have attached the Salt Lake County Emergency Solutions Grant Policy and Procedures. These fund are included as part of our streamlined funding process. We have combined the funding from ESG, the 15% Public Service CDBG, and the Social Services Block grant funding to address our funding priorities to allow for more impactful outcomes for our County residents.

2. If the Continuum of Care has established centralized or coordinated assessment system that meets HUD requirements, describe that centralized or coordinated assessment system.

The Continuum of Care implemented the Coordinated Assessment System in 2014 and is continually working to improve the system. There are currently systems in place for the Chronically Homeless, Homeless Veterans and Families. The process for the Chronically Homeless includes a Community Triage Group of agencies that meet each week at The Road Home to evaluate client needs. They use the SPDAT and other information to assess progress and status of clients. This same process is in place for homeless veterans however the Veterans Administration is a partner in these weekly meetings to ensure the certifications for actual veterans status is included in the process. The Road Home is currently the lead agency for coordinated intake for families as well. They continually provide training for all agencies to ensure the referral process is working. Approximately 25-30% of the clients currently being placed are coming from referral agencies. The new NOFA for the CoC may provide additional funds to assist with the analysis of these processes to evaluate effectiveness and outcomes.

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 151 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

3. Identify the process for making sub-awards and describe how the ESG allocation available to private nonprofit organizations (including community and faith-based organizations).

Several changes were made in the grant process for this new timeframe. A new process has been implemented where all ESG, CDBG Public Service, and SSBG funds are pooled and distributed through a collaborative decision-making process. Under this new process, applicants, including both non-profit service providers including community and faith-based organizations and local jurisdictions, will apply for funding through an open RFP process. The Citizen Participation Process has been amended to include two citizen review committees that better reflects the various jurisdictions and have expertise in the areas of services to score and rank the various applications. A representative of the Continuum of Care is include as a member of the review committee that scores and ranks the ESG funds. The County will then hold a joint public hearing to solicit public input on the preliminary budget recommendations from the citizen committees. Following the public hearing, the approval body will either consent to the preliminary budget, or in consultation with the County Mayor, recommend modifications to it. Upon receiving the final budget recommendation of the approval body, final approval will be made and submitted to HUD. This process creates a more streamlined, efficient and effective grant process for all involved and will enable the County to collectively have a greater impact to the challenges we seek to address. To ensure coordination of funding for the crisis services, the County coordinates with the housing Authorities as well as the Continuum of Care on policies and priorities to ensure all activities funded compliment each other rather than duplicate services.

4. If the jurisdiction is unable to meet the homeless participation requirement in 24 CFR 576.405(a), the jurisdiction must specify its plan for reaching out to and consulting with homeless or formerly homeless individuals in considering policies and funding decisions regarding facilities and services funded under ESG.

All agencies are provided technical assistance as well as training regarding the unique program requirements for each of the grant sources included in our collaborative process. This includes the match requirements for each program as well as the homeless participation requirement for the ESG program. Any agency that is unable to meet this requirement is not allocated funding from this program source. THis requirement is verified for all agencies that recieve ESG funding though monitoring as well as by reviewing their policies and board lists.

5. Describe performance standards for evaluating ESG.

All programs for the Emergency Solutions Grant are evaluated according to the identified outputs and performance indicators outlined in the Request for Proposals and included in each contract. These are measured each quarter as agencies work toward providing the outcomes of their programs. All programs are evaluated on timeliness of payment requests and how they meet the reporting requirements of the program. All ESG Subgrantees are required to enter data into the State HMIS system except agencies that provide domestic violence services. These agencies are

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 152 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

required to submit the same type of summary data provided by HMIS on a quarterly basis. As the priorities are identified, the County works with the State, Salt Lake City (Entitlement Jurisdiction) and the Continuum of Care to review performance standardes and outcomes identified for projects and activities. This allows consistency as the programs provide the services to homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless. As a funding agency, the County works with the State HMIS office on reporting requirements to again ensure consistency in information and data quality.

Executive Summary

ES-05 Executive Summary - 91.200(c), 91.220(b) 1. Introduction

In partnership with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Sandy City is required to have in place a five-year consolidated plan as a grantee of the Community Development Block Group (CDBG) program. The consolidated plan represents the needs and strategic objectives that are utilized on an annual basis in identifying funded projects. Projects, including funding amounts, expected benefits and consistency with with the consolidated plan are described in annual action plans. This document represents the City’s portion of the Salt Lake County Consortia’s 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan; the needs, strategic objectives, and 2015 Annual Action Plan are specific to the City.

Sandy City Area Map -

2. Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 156 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

Over the next five years, the City hopes to achieve three main objectives which are:

(1) Decent, Affordable Housing

(2) Suitable Living Environment

(3) Economic Opportunities.

The three main outcomes of these objectives the City hopes to realize are:

(1) Availability/Accessibility

(2) Affordability

(3) Sustainability

Sandy City has identified four main areas of focus and developed some associated goals that will help realize the outcome desired:

 Homeless Services and Support  Special Populations Services  Affordable Housing  Community Development

The first is providing Homeless Services and Support. To accomplish this, we have set a goal to ensure homeless shelters are maintained and there is adequate outreach to those individuals. Another goal which builds from the first is to provide transitional then permanent housing solutions for those affected by homelessness. Everyone deserves the dignity and security that come from having a decent, affordable home and the benefits a suitable living environment provides.

The City is aware that many of its residents have unique needs and issues that relate to advanced age, physical impairments, mental impairments, HIV/AIDS, or other disabilities. With these unique circumstances, come unique needs and issues that require equally unique solutions to help address their issues. The City has set a goal to deliver senior citizen facilities and services. That facility was realized through CDBG funds and a Section 108 Loan that has serviced the city’s senior population well. The City also recognizes other special populations that have several area wide agencies and non-profit groups that have specific services targeted at their unique circumstances. It is the City’s goal to seek out and support those public service providers. It is important that our citizens’ needs are met by making these programs available and accessible.

A majority of Sandy City enjoys high property values and homes that are well maintained. This is an issue for affordability of many people who desire to live in our city. The areas that are more affordable tend to be areas with aging housing stock that has been improperly maintained or neglected. As Sandy City Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 157 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

ages, other areas could also fall victim to this same occurrence and could fall into decline. It is critical that we maintain our current housing stock and ensure that we have sufficient suitable living environments. It is also important to ensure we have a diversified housing stock to ensure there is sufficient affordable housing. To achieve this outcome, the city has set goals to create new affordable housing options, provide home rehabilitation assistance, and provide emergency or critical home repairs that improve safety and health of home. A healthy, sustainable city can be achieved by accomplishing these goals.

The last area of focus is Community Development. The oldest parts of the city has aging infrastructure that isn’t up to current standards. There are accessibility issues due to this deficient state of infrastructure. There are also needs to provide programs for youth, seniors, and others. The City has made goals to correct those accessibility deficiencies through public improvements to its street infrastructure. These will promote economic improvements and accessibility to all residents. The City also has a goal to seek out service providers that can provide the necessary programs to teach, train, and educate our community to further advance individual success.

3. Evaluation of past performance

For several years the City has set out to improve in the areas of focus shown above. We have seen progress towards accomplishing those goals through the partnerships we've made with service providers and other government entities. While we have made measurable progress, the work is not yet done. We want to continue to improve in these areas over the next five year period. We hope that with the payoff of the Section 108 loan, we can direct more money to these areas to help realize the outcomes we desire.

4. Summary of citizen participation process and consultation process

Sandy City has an excelent group of dedicated citizens whom come from all over the city and several that live within the areas of highest low/moderate income households. They are familiar with the needs of their communities and are dedicated to help them through the CDBG program. They meet several times a year to help guide the use of the CDBG program, assist in evaluation of potential service provider partners and help evaluate their effectiveness. They hold a large part in informing the plan and objectives of the CDBG program.

The City also seeks out consultation with the many service providers in the area, both non-profit and governmental, to better understand the needs of our residents whom they are serving. This level of personal details into the needs of our residents is invaluable. The City Council holds a public hearing each year and many of them provide information regarding those needs and how we can better serve them and reach those that are still underserved.

PR-10 Consultation - 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l) 1. Introduction

The various coordination activities in Sandy City and Salt Lake County highlight one of the key strengths in the institutional structure. This has been particularly true in many planning processes which involved a broad base of community representatives in a process to develop a common vision and strategic plan.

The preparation of the Consolidated Plan involved consultation with other public and private agencies which provide assisted housing, health services and social services, including providers to children, elderly persons, persons with disabilities, persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, and homeless persons.

Coordination of resources and compilation of data for the consolidated plan was accomplished through a multi-faceted process combined of public hearings, roundtables, special presentations, mail and telephone surveys with affected agencies and organizations. Coalitions, commissions, councils, boards and committees representing affected organizations throughout the area of jurisdiction were sought out for their participation.

There are three Continuums of Care organized in Utah. The local Continuum of Care serves Tooele and Salt Lake County. It receives approximately $6 million annually from HUD for project funding and collaboration. Salt Lake County is the lead agency for the local continuum. Salt Lake County has recently formed a steering committee to restructure the Continuum of Care, specifically to implement the Collective Impact Approach model. The Continuum of Care believes that the Collective Impact Approach will more closely align the Continuum with HUD’s HEARTH program. The Collective Impact Approach is intended to:

• Take a system approach instead of a program approach; • Be more data driven; • Involve a broad group of diverse stakeholders; and • Implement common principles and common metric throughout the community.

region. Until the agenda is in place, the Continuum has encouraged the cities to support HUD’s goals of ending veteran homelessness, ending chronic homelessness, and ending family and youth homelessness. The intent being that the systems and programs are in place so that those in danger of homelessness have the necessary resources available to them.

Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards and evaluate outcomes, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the administration of HMIS

Citizens in Sandy City, especially those of low, very low, and extremely low-income are encouraged to participate in the development of the Consolidated Plan, its substantial amendments and the performance report. Also, citizens including minorities and non-English speaking persons, persons with mobility, visual or hearing impairments are also strongly encouraged to participate. It is the contention of the jurisdiction that citizens of an area are the best resource for identifying issues, suggesting solutions, developing and amending plans and programs to solve existing and future problems.

To help receive this input the City has formed a citizen's CDBG Advisory Committee that meets almost every month. These meetings are publicly noticed and open to the public. The City Council also holds a public hearing annually before decisions are made with determining allocations of the CDBG Grant.

As part of this new consolidated plan, the City set out to find what needs we have, categorize them, and asses the level of priority. The City reviewed our needs for housing, homeless, other special groups, and community development. Those areas were assessed through review of census data and consultation with the City's CDBG Advisory Committee, consultation with non-profit public service providers and other government agencies.

The city has a growing senior citizen population. The construction of the City's Senior Center several years ago with a Section 108 Loan and paid for with CDBG funds. This facility has served this growing population well and serves a great need in the community.

How were these needs determined?

Analysis of U.S. Census Bureau information and consultation with Salt Lake County Aging and Adult Services.

Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Improvements:

The City's low to moderate income areas also have some of the largest needs for public infrastructure. Most of the city's Historic District streets lack standard curb and gutter, sidewalks, parkstrips, and properly constructed asphalt streets. They are not up to the level of service enjoyed by the newer parts of the city. They have been incrementally improved over the years with sidewalks, ADA ramps, and replacement of certain sections of curb and gutter. The city has invested general fund money to complete most of the major street improvements in the area and have used CDBG funds to supplement smaller projects like ADA ramps. As the infrastructure continues to age, the need for a complete reconstruction of several streets in this area will increase.

How were these needs determined?

Consultation with the city's Public Works, Public Utilities, and Community Development Directors.

Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Services:

The City's low to moderate income households in our community have need for public services in a variety of different areas such as:

MA-45 Non-Housing Community Development Assets - 91.410, 91.210(f) Introduction

Residents in Sandy City, in general, are well-educated and households have relatively high incomes. We have a diversified work force. Good jobs are available in high-tech manufacturing, education, health services, retail, finance, tourism, and professional/management areas. The competition for employees is considered a drawback for many employers. Ensuring that the transportation infrastructre and housing is in place to provide access to jobs and on-going eductaion and skill training is essential to maintain a continued strength and growth in the area.

Based on the Business Activity table above, what are the major employment sectors within your jurisdiction?

The following are the major employment sectors by share of jobs:

Describe the workforce and infrastructure needs of the business community:

Businesses attracted to the community and the expansion of existing businesses are in need of educated and skilled employees. Infrastructure challenges are also a restriction for some businesses desiring to locate to the area. The greatest needs and limiting factors being lack of wide spread fiber optic infrastructure, and improved transportation connections. Transportation can also be a challenge in the region for the

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 179 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

workforce having access between jobs and housing. Large employers have expressed interest in quality retail, nearby housing, and connections to mass transit to support their workforce.

Recently, the City Council adopted the Sandy Civic Center Area 30-Year Development Plan that addresses a roughly 800 acre area between I-15 and TRAX, 9000 South and 10600 South. This plan lays the ground work for increased residential density and mixed-use projects that will be located near multiple forms of transportation, retail, dining, and entertainment venues. The plan provides for both rental and ownership opportunities in housing.

How do the skills and education of the current workforce correspond to employment opportunities in the jurisdiction?

Good jobs are available in high-tech manufacturing, education, health services, and professional management. The City’s workforce is well educated and well trained. On-going education and training in areas such as math and science and ensuring that the workforce has access to employment centers is needed to continue to attract businesses with quality jobs. As the technology sector continues to grow in this region, there will need to be well educated and trained individuals in computer science, math, and science to meet this future demand.

The City has supported Salt Lake Community College's expansion of the Larry H. Miller Campus.The Miller Campus is home to SLCC’s Culinary Institute, and numerous Continuing Education courses in program areas such as legal secretary, digital media technology, real estate appraisal and public safety/criminal justice. The Miller Business Resource Center offers four corporate training programs and The Miller Business Innovation Center helps startup companies with operational and educational services. Training facilities for the Utah Department of Public Safety (DPS) on the campus include: Highway Patrol training, DPS development education center, the Utah POST (Peace Officer Standards and Training) academy and the Department of Corrections training academy.

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 180 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

The City has also worked closely with the University of Utah in helping them expand their satelite campus to offer more courses and expand learning opportunities for Sandy residents.

Additionally, the local school district (Canyons School District) has a strong technology program and the state has recently approved pay raises for teachers in math and science.

Based on the limited amount of HUD funds received by the City, and the necessarily simple nature of the City’s program, it is unlikely that those funds will be allocated to projects that directly serve economic development in the City. However, the City should be conscious of and take into consideration the potential of projects funded by the City’s CDBG program and the HOME Consortium to indirectly support the City’s economic development goals and promote a positive business atmosphere.

Does your jurisdiction participate in a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS)?

The City's Sandy Civic Center Area 30-Year Development Plan serves as both a land use plan to guide future growth, but is also the city's economic development plan as well. The City is seeking to create a suburban downtown destination point for our residents, tourists, and local businesses. This area is envisioned to be a focal point of growth for the entire south end of the Salt Lake Valley.

Discussion

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 181 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

MA-50 Needs and Market Analysis Discussion Are there areas where households with multiple housing problems are concentrated? (include a definition of "concentration")

Sandy City's Northwest corner of the city contains the highest concentration of housing problems. The city has divided the entire city into 30 different communities. Communities 2, 3, & 4 are all located in this northwest section of the city that is most affected by housing problems. These are areas that have the oldest average age of housing stock, typically were mostly developed prior to 1960, and have the highest percentage of low to moderate income households. These areas also share that they house the majority of the city's minority populations. Sandy City defines conscentration as containing a higher percentage of housing problems than the median of the city as a whole.

Are there any areas in the jurisdiction where racial or ethnic minorities or low-income families are concentrated? (include a definition of "concentration")

The same northwest section of Sandy City houses a majority of the city's minority populations and low to moderate income families. The 2000 Census data shows that these areas have the highest percentage of families with low to moderate incomes, and the area has the highest share of minority populations as compared to the city as a whole.

What are the characteristics of the market in these areas/neighborhoods?

These areas have the lowest average assessed value as compared with the city aveage. Since these areas have lower values, compared to the rest of the city, there have been some infill housing and reinvestment into the area since these are considered good values in the overall market.

Are there any community assets in these areas/neighborhoods?

Community 2 has several assets that these neighborhoods benefit from including: River Oaks Golf Course, several trail segments, close access to commercial goods and services, access to bus service, and local pocket parks.

Community 3 likewise has assets in their area as well including: schools, local parks, access to bus service, and close proximity to commercial goods and services.

Community 4 has access to community assets including: access to bus and train service, several trails, many parks (regional and local), several schools, and close proximity to commercial goods and services.

Are there other strategic opportunities in any of these areas?

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 182 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

These areas are located in an area that has great access to public transportation, employment, schools, parks and other assets. However, the area has many homes that are in need of both emergency repair and long term maintenance and upkeep. Since these areas are undervalued in the market compared to the rest of the city, there is an opportunity for both the city and the private sector to make investments in these areas to improve conditions. It is an area that could see a revitalization there can be strategic investments made in the area. Aging and inadequate street infrastructure (sidewalks, roads, etc), encouraging home owners to reinvest in their homes, and encouraging infill housing in these areas are just a few of the opportunites to help rejuvinate them.

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 190 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

The City does not have match requirements of the program funding or anticipated projects funded to serve community needs. The majority of community development projects directly managed by the City are generally leveraged through staff time and other resources funded by the general fund. It is likely that all public service subrecipients will be agencies that serve the region, and funds provided by the City are leveraged by other municipalities, Salt Lake County, the State, and charitable donations. The City has demonstrated that it seeks for and takes advantage of additional opportunities to leverage CDBG funds, and the City will continue to do so.

The City is exploring opportunities to leverage the CDBG funds with funds generated through the City's Economic Development Areas, which require a 15% set-aside for the construction of new affordable housing within the city.

If appropriate, describe publically owned land or property located within the state that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan

The City's Senior Center will continue to be essential to meeting needs identified in this plan. Additionally, it is expected that projects to address improvements and amenities will be built on City owned property, such as open space and parks, in neighborhoods that qualify for funding through the low- and moderate-income area benefit national objective. The City also owns remnant parcels and has sought to acquire additional land that currently has abandoned, distressed, or problem properties throughout the city, with the objective to rehabilitate or replace with new affordable housing.

Progress has been made in recent years in overcoming gaps in the institutional structure, however, a number of gaps remain. Many of these were identified in the previous Consolidated Plan, and the stakeholder focus groups generated a number of additional gaps. The Strategic Plan goals and objectives are intended to address these gaps to the extent possible with available resources:

Overall Gaps

Lack of a visible, pro-active role on the part of community leaders in dealing with tough, inter- jurisdictional affordable housing and community development issues such as dispersion of affordable housing, removal of regulatory barriers and overcoming discrimination.

 Collaboration gaps exist between service providers and funding agencies.  Welfare reform is putting a strain on other community service systems.  Lack of economic self-sufficiency programs and an inadequate safety net for single individuals.  Economic self-sufficiency programs often lack a housing component.  Lack of sufficient, affordable childcare services to meet the needs of working parents.  Insufficient treatment facilities and housing options for people with chemical dependency.

Public Sector Gaps

 It is difficult to coordinate local, state and federal housing and community development program rules and regulations to serve those most in need in a cost effective manner.

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 194 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

 Limited resources reduce the capacity of the City and County to expand services.  There are turf issues among local governments and state government.  The Housing Authority public housing units and the use of Section 8 certificates and vouchers are concentrated almost entirely in the northern part of Salt Lake County and are not located in Sandy City.  Public transportation does not adequately serve reverse commuting and cross county transportation needs.  Public school curricula do not adequately address the social and skill development needs of low- income populations.

Non-Profit Sector Gaps

 The capacity of non-profit development organizations to produce and maintain housing and economic development projects varies widely.  Some non-profits lack the capacity to handle regulatory, financial management and reporting requirements of grants and loans.  It is difficult for non-profits to secure stable, ongoing sources of operating funds.  In order to make a development project work, it is necessary for non-profit developers to put together financing from many different sources, each with its own regulations and requirements.

Private Sector Gaps

 Inadequate linkages to connect those living in poverty and needing employment with economic growth areas where labor shortages exist.  Many retail and service sector jobs do not pay a 'living wage" or offer benefits.  Few local corporations contribute to affordable housing and community development equity funds that benefit Sandy City.  Insufficient coordination among multiple sources of financial and technical assistance for small and minority businesses and startup entrepreneurs.  It is not financially feasible for private developers to develop housing projects affordable to extremely low-income people without ongoing rental assistance.

Availability of services targeted to homeless persons and persons with HIV and mainstream services

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 195 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

Table 75 - Homeless Prevention Services Summary Describe how the service delivery system including, but not limited to, the services listed above meet the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth)

As a metropolitan area of 16 cities and additional unincorporated county areas, there is a wide array of programs and services available in the region. Services to homeless persons are laregely made available by and through coordination with the homeless shelters. While there are no shelters located within Sandy City boundaries, since becoming a CDBG grantee, the City has provided CDBG funds to support the Road Home homeless shelter. The Road Home take a comprehensive approach to addressing homelessness, providing case management, housing programs, and strong networking with service providers in the region.

Agencies such as Utah Pride Center and Utah AIDS Foundation collaborate with other service providers to meet the needs of persons with HIV. Sandy is not a HOPWA entitlement. However, HOPWA vouchers are available to residents through the housing authority and other housing providers.

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 196 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

Describe the strengths and gaps of the service delivery system for special needs population and persons experiencing homelessness, including, but not limited to, the services listed above

Due to fiscal restraints, the City strives to support services and programs which serve the needs determined to be the highest priority, have the greatest impact, and serve the most essential needs in the community. As a part of a larger region, residents have access to other services and programs that are not funded by the City's CDBG program.

Provide a summary of the strategy for overcoming gaps in the institutional structure and service delivery system for carrying out a strategy to address priority needs

The City is constantly striving to most effectively utilize the limited funds received to address needs within the community. In order to adequately fund projects to meet needs, decisions regarding prioties have to be made. The resources inventory was undertaken to give the Sandy City CDBG Citizens Advisory Committee a better idea of how HUD funds received by the City compare to other funding sources available to address Strategic Plan goals. Both the priorities for investment and the five-year objectives for Sandy City funds are intended to target limited City funds to activities that cannot be funded by other sources, as well as to leverage other resources whenever possible. The resources inventory will also be used in the future to evaluate the impact on the community of changes in funding of federal programs.

SP-70 Anti-Poverty Strategy - 91.415, 91.215(j) Jurisdiction Goals, Programs and Policies for reducing the number of Poverty-Level Families

Over the past few years, the City has made significant strides in better understanding the need for and impacts of rental housing. It is recognized that, while the City has few large areas of undeveloped land, that more moderate income housing will be needed in the future. The City has begun to address this need by opening up to smaller lot developments, additional multi-family projects, and making planning efforts that work towards this end. Recently, the City Council adopted the Sandy Civic Center Area 30- Year Development Plan that addresses a roughly 800 acre area between I-15 and TRAX, 9000 South and 10600 South. This plan lays the ground work for increased residential density (both rental and ownership) and mixed-use projects that will be located near multiple forms of transportation, retail, dining, and entertainment venues.

The City also updated the Housing Element of the General Plan in 2013, which specifically addresses how Sandy City has established policies and goals for creating new affordable housing in the City. (see the full Housing Element for further details)

How are the Jurisdiction poverty reducing goals, programs, and policies coordinated with this affordable housing plan

The goals of the 2013 update to the Housing Element of General Plan, directly informed the goals of this Consildated Plan. The City hopes to use the CDBG funds to help implement the goals and policies of the General Plan, which, in turn, implement underlying objectives of the CDBG program.

Consolidated Plan SANDY CITY 204 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

Through monitoring, we seek to maximize the effective use of CDBG funds for the benefit of all City residents, whether directly or indirectly, through compliance with all relevant City and federal requirements. The City recognizes that successfully accomplishing program goals and objectives requires a good working relationship as partners, through openness and approachability, with subrecipients and contractors. In addition to regular and ongoing communication with subrecipients and contractors, the City of South Jordan strives for a multi-faceted approach to monitoring projects and activities funded by CDBG.

Committee Tours

The City’s Staff Working Group recognizes the importance of being familiar with subrecipient organizations, facilities, services, and practices in order to adequately review funding request applications and to make allocation recommendations to the City Council. The CDBG committee will conduct at least two on-site tours each year.

Quarterly Reports

Quarterly reports are expected of all subrecipients. The City will use a standardized quarterly review template for subrecipients, which is emailed following the end of each quarter. A coordination meeting will be held quarterly between the CDBG Administrator and representatives of City departments managing projects and activities. Project managers are assigned to each project and activity by a department director. Project managers are responsible for on-site observations and interviews of construction activities, and submitting invoices for payment.

Desk Reviews

Desk reviews are conducted annually on all subrecipients. Desk reviews include updating file information, review of the quarterly reports and invoices, and contact with a representative of the subrecipient. A risk category (low, medium, or high) is assigned at the end of each Desk Review based on missing information, employee turn-over, performance measurements, new subrecipient, amount funded, and type of project/activity. Actions are identified to address any findings.

In-Depth Reviews

reviews are typically scheduled based on the risk category identified in desk reviews; however in-depth reviews may also be conducted for new subrecipients and others as considered pertinent. Areas to be reviewed include finance systems and reports, budget, eligibility, insurance, procurement, record keeping, and non-discrimination. Actions are identified to address any findings.

For the 2015-2016 program year, the city has reduced the percentage of CDBG funds to fund the administration of the grant (12.5%) which is below the maximum allowed (20%) and represents an approximate $13,000 reduction from previous years. The City intends to maximize the allowable funding (15%) for public services. The majority of the CDBG funds will be focused on paying off the Section 108 Loan used to construct the Senior Center. The remainder of the CDBG funding is proposed to be allocated to fund emergency home repairs and residential accessibility improvements.

AP-85 Other Actions - 91.420, 91.220(k) Introduction

It is the goal and objective of the City's proposed projects and activities for the 2015-2016 CDBG Program Year to do the following: 1) maintain affordable housing; 2) make homes safe and healthy; 3) reduce the number of poverty level families; 4) develop relationships with direct service providers to enhance coordation and effectiveness of our CDBG program.

Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs

Limited funding and high housing costs are primary obstacles to addressing underserved needs. The City will continue to seek programs and activities to more efficiently meet community needs through leveraging funds, better coordination with and awareness of local organizations, and seeking to meet needs with resources other than CDBG funding.

Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing

The range and availability of housing types within the City has significantly increased in recent years. The City is a member of the HOME Consortium and is currently formulating plans to use EDA housing set- aside funds to create new affordable housing units. The proposed 2015-2016 HOME Consortium allocation includes an addtional $50,000 set-aside for the Community Development Corporation's downpayment assistance program to be used to serve Sandy City and South Jordan City. It is expected that 10 homes will served between the two cities. CDBG funds during 2015-2016 are being allocated to emergency housing repairs and residential accessibility improvements to address the goal to maintain existing housing.

Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards

Approximately 45% of the City's housing units were built prior to 1978, when lead-based paint was banned. The Salt Lake County Health Department is focused on education. It is recommended that city residents in housing units built prior to 1978 become familiar with the dangers of lead-based paint and actions that can be taken to reduce those hazards. Information is available from the Salt Lake County Health Department at: www.slcohealth.org/programs/leadfreekids/index.

Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families

One of the purposes to help fund public services is to provide our residents opportunities to get educated and receive the temporary assistance they need to break the cycle of poverty. By providing CDBG funds to residents that need emergency assistance, we meet their immediate needs. By providing them tools through counseling and education, they can get on the path of self-sufficiency.

Consolidated Plan WEST JORDAN 218 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

Actions planned to develop institutional structure

The City is constantly striving to most effectively utilize the limited funds received to address needs within the community. The City intends to seek more effective outreach methods to the public in order to incorporate more community input. Additional training is also planned to increase awareness of the CDBG program among City staff to better coordinate the goals of the Consolidated Plan with potential projects, resources, and capacity of individual departments.

Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies

The CDBG Advisory Committee will continue to tour the facilities of funded public service agencies. The CDBG Coordinator will continue to increase the number of on-site monitoring visits and do so more regularly. The CDBG Administrator will continue to serve on the HOME Consortium and coordinate with housing providers, public service providers, and other government entities.

Executive Summary

ES-05 Executive Summary - 91.200(c), 91.220(b) 1. Introduction

As recipients of federal grant funds, HUD requires the City of West Jordan to produce a Five-Year Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan. It also serves as the application for funding for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) federal entitlement program that serves low income individuals and/or families.

The City of West Jordan’s Five-Year Consolidated Plan (Con Plan) identifies the community’s affordable housing, community development and economic development needs, and outlines a comprehensive and coordinated strategy for addressing them. The City’s upcoming five-year strategy will focus primarily on devoting federal resources to areas in the city where the greatest concentration of poverty exists.

HUD has established three priority goals for jurisdictions across the country to pursue as part of their consolidated planning efforts: decent housing, suitable living environment, and providing economic opportunity.

The ability of the City to attain these goals utilizing CDBG funds can be identified through the following performance measures:

Decent Housing: The provision of decent housing assists both the homeless and persons at risk of becoming homeless in obtaining housing; retains the existing units in the housing stock; increases the availability of permanent housing in standard condition and at affordable cost to low- and moderate- income (LMI) families. Decent housing also increases the supply of supportive housing with services needed to enable persons with special needs to live independently, and provides affordable housing for low to moderate income persons in areas that are accessible to job opportunities.

Suitable living environment: The provision of a suitable living environment improves the safety and livability of neighborhoods; increases access to quality public and private facilities and services; reduces the isolation of income groups within a community or geographical area by offering housing opportunities for persons of lower-income and revitalizes deteriorating or deteriorated neighborhoods; restores, enhances, and preserves natural and physical features of special value for historic, architectural or aesthetic reasons; and conserves energy resources

Provide economic opportunity : The provision of expanded economic opportunities creates and retains jobs; establishes, stabilizes, and expands small businesses (including micro-businesses); provides public services concerned with employment; provides jobs to low income persons living in areas affected by

Consolidated Plan WEST JORDAN 224 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

those programs and activities; makes available mortgage financing for low-income persons at reasonable rates using nondiscriminatory lending practices; provides access to capital and credit for development activities that promote the long-term economic and social viability of the community; and provides empowerment and self-sufficiency opportunities for low income persons to reduce generational poverty in federally-assisted and public housing.

WJMAP

2. Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan Consolidated Plan WEST JORDAN 226 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

Over the next five years, the City will continue to provide low and moderate income persons with housing assistance, and continue to allocate CDBG funds to local nonprofit organizations to provide essential social services for the homeless, LMI persons, and non-homeless special needs population.

The City of West Jordan has identified these main goals:

• Provide housing counseling and intake assessment for low/moderate-income residents for stabilizing the homeless, foreclosure prevention, and home purchase.

• Enrich community services and provide limited economic development funding for low-income startup businesses.

• Provide public service funding for homeless shelters, youth mentoring programs, domestic violence shelters/counseling, afterschool programs,

• Provide ADA Compliance at street intersections throughout West Jordan.

• Provide rehabilitation on low to moderate rental property/public housing units for low income persons, elderly and/or disabled.

3. Evaluation of past performance

In the FY 2013 Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER), the City of West Jordan met two performance measures: decent housing and suitable living environment. Limited funds were allocated for economic development to provide low interest economic development loans for start-up businesses. The City provided funding for housing counseling, emergency shelter for abused spouses and children, food pantry services, homeless shelter operations, and youth mentoring programs, through the 15% allocations from Public services. In addition, funds were provided for the annual payment of the Section 108 Loan utilized to construct the West Jordan Senior Citizen center.

PR-10 Consultation - 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l) 1. Introduction

This section of the Consolidated Plan addresses the City’s efforts to consult with other public and private agencies when developing the plan.

The City’s Citizen Participation Plan serves as the first step in the qualification process for the CDBG program. The plan serves as the City’s official policy for involving the community in the development of all planning documents related to the CDBG program. As required, the City consulted with residents and agencies through public hearings, community meetings, newspaper advertisements, and emails to identify community needs that may be eligible for consideration as five-year goals for the Consolidated Plan.

The consolidated plan must provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction’s activities to enhance coordination between public and private agencies that provide housing needs, public and private agencies that address health, social services, victim services, and employment and education needs of low income, homeless, and special needs populations. With respect to economic development, the jurisdiction should describe efforts to enhance coordination with private industry, businesses, and social service agencies. Due to the limited amount of funding, West Jordan does not provide a high level of focus on economic development.

In conformance with the Citizen Participation Plan, the City held public hearings and meetings to solicit comments on community needs prior to creation of a draft 5-year Consolidated Plan. The meetings were held and activities undertaken:

Consolidated Plan Survey, Survey Monkey March/April 2015

In addition to receiving public comments and consulting with these agencies, the City of West Jordan provided a survey on Survey Monkey to collect public input on the Consolidated Plan and the Needs Assessment. The City of West Jordan through Salt Lake County contracted with James Woods of the University of Utah, Bureau of economic and Business Research to prepare the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing (AI) for Salt Lake County and its’ entitlement cities. The results of the survey are found in the Appendix. The City’s website www.wjordan.com includes a page dedicated to CDBG program in an effort to broaden public participation and education.

The City of West Jordan falls under the State of Utah’s Continuum of Care program which is administered by the Utah Department of Community Affairs. West Jordan routinely supports local nonprofit agencies that seek funding through DCA to assist persons in need, such as those that fall within categories listed above.

The City of West Jordan is not involved in the decision making process regarding which agencies receive funding through the State of Utah’s Continuum of Care Program administered by the Utah Department of Community Affairs. They have a competitive process and receive more funding requests than can be awarded annually.

Based on the Business Activity table above, what are the major employment sectors within your jurisdiction?

The City of West Jordan major employment sectors based on the business activity table are manufacturing; education and health care; entertainment, accommodations; and retail trade. Per the West Jordan Chamber of Commerce, this information is consistent as the top employers in the City of West Jordan were identified as follows: Jordan Valley Hospital, Salt Lake Community College, Jordan Landing Retail Center, Boeing, local schools and governmental facilities. Employers provide employment to 53,327 residents and nonresidents in the West Jordan area. Retail trade employment is the largest employee in West Jordan hiring 16% of the labor force, followed by Education & Health Care at 14% and Manufacturing at 13%. These three areas make up a total of 43% of the employees working within West Jordan. The State of Utah and the Salt Lake Valley has been one of the leading top 3 states and areas that are rebounding fastest from the 2008 economic and housing crisis.

Describe the workforce and infrastructure needs of the business community:

The city of West Jordan has a varied cross section of workforce skills throughout the City. From bluecollar workers to professionals. The City is young in nature so the education level of new residents is exteremely high. Most new residents moving to the City are first time homebuyers

Consolidated Plan WEST JORDAN 264 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

just out of college looking to start a career in the medical, finance, technology or similar fields. With this being said, there still remains a large section of older skilled workers in the community to support the manufacturing and production industires in the City.

As mentioned above, being located in the State of Utah has been positive for West Jordan in the sense that the State is constantly listed as one of the best states to do business in. With the rapid economic turn around from the 2008 housing crisis, the City of West Jordan has been able to attract new businesses to balance out its' losses. Boeing has located in the KraftMaid building that became vacant as a result of the housing bust. In addition, housing growth has begun to return to normal with West Jordan still having 25% of the City undeveloped and affordable to new housing developments along with retail development.

The biggest growth expectation is along the light rail line (TRAX) where the City has 6 stops that allow for multi family and commercial development. As these develop, the city will increase its' workforce and fill the need for employees. The City is installing new infrastructure to manage this growing area to keep pace with the existing need.

How do the skills and education of the current workforce correspond to employment opportunities in the jurisdiction?

Based on the Educational Attainment by Age table above, the workforce corresponds to employment opportunities with the most of the population having received a minimum a high school/GED education, with a growing number having attained some college on up to graduate degrees.

The City participates with the State of Utah Department of Workforce Services when opportunties become avaialble. Other than that, the City offers no workforce training.

Does your jurisdiction participate in a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS)?

Consolidated Plan WEST JORDAN 265 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

Yes

The City participates with the State of Utah in developing and securing businesses within the City of West Jordan. The State and economic development officals at the City coordinate these activities in recruitment of new employment opportunities.

MA-50 Needs and Market Analysis Discussion Are there areas where households with multiple housing problems are concentrated? (include a definition of "concentration")

The City has identified largest populations of low-to-moderate income persons in the identified LMI Census Tracts . According to the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) data these areas have a majority of the housing problems in the City in need of both minor and major renovation.

Are there any areas in the jurisdiction where racial or ethnic minorities or low-income families are concentrated? (include a definition of "concentration")

According to the CHAS data, the above mentioned LMI Census Tracts include mainly caucasians but have a substantial number of Hispanic or Latino persons. This shows a high concentration of low-income minorities in LMA's. The City defines high concentrations of minorities as those Census Tracts that have predominantly non-white households. The City’s definition of an area of low-income concentration is those Census tracts where household incomes are less than $57,750 (80% of the median household income).

What are the characteristics of the market in these areas/neighborhoods?

The market area in these LMI Census Tracts are characterized as aging single dwelling houses, with minimal redevelopment, and investment taking place over the last several years since the housing recession of 2008.

Are there any community assets in these areas/neighborhoods?

A community asset is a quality, person or thing that is an advantage, a resource, or an item of value to an organization or community. In addition to citizens, these areas includes schools, churches, manufacturing plants, Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District, West Jordan Police Center, Gene Fullmer Community Center, West Jordan City Hall, the Downtown Area, and Jordan Valley Medical Center.

Are there other strategic opportunities in any of these areas?

Consolidated Plan WEST JORDAN 267 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

The primary strategic opportunity is to improve the housing needs for low income families and the homeless through renovation and development of more affordable housing. The City also supports improvements that meet the Americans with Disabilities Act with better access in housing and infrastructure.

Strategic Plan

SP-05 Overview Strategic Plan Overview

The Consolidated Plan must identify the priority needs of the jurisdiction and describe strategies that the City will undertake to serve these needs. The overall goals of the City are outlined from the information in the 2012 West Jordan Comprehensive General Plan as amended March 2014, the City’s Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing, and CHAS Data from the most recent US Census Data. The City also reviewed the West Jordan Low and Moderate-Income Plan and 2015 Homeless Point in Time Count compiled by DCA. Through continual commitment to maintain communication with the public, local community leaders, consultation with citizens, government offices and local non-profits, along with an analysis of available data, the City has identified affordable housing needs and basic strategies for leveraging federal funding have been developed.

West Jordan CDBG focuses on three facets within the low and moderate income community:

 Housing,  Public Facilities (buildings, infrastructure and services)  Economic Development (job creation/retention)

West Jordan has concentrated its previous CDBG awards in public facilities and housing areas and continues to do so in the 2015 program year.

Geographic Priorities: The geographic allocation of the City's CDBG funds is guided by the determination that these funds can have the greatest impact when targeted to specific areas and leveraged with other

local, state and federal investments when possible. The CDBG LMI target area map is attached. As provided for at 24 CFR Part 570.208(a)(1), the City may elect to use these target areas to meet National

Objective requirements for selected projects that specifically meet the Area Benefit category of activities. Priority Needs Based on the Needs Assessment completed and the data gathered as part of the Consolidated Plan process, priority needs

identified are public improvements, housing rehabilitation and economic development activities which create new jobs.

Anticipated Resources: The City anticipates that the only funds available for 2015 for the selected projects will be CDBG funds.

Local officials see a need to assist the growing populations of minorities who live and work in the City. Approximately only 10% of the population falls into a minority group. Identify the needs in this target area. More affordable housing is needed citywide along with support services to maintain the existing housing stock. Better transportation and walkability in these areas are still lacking even with the recent transportation services provided though the local bus and light rail system.

General Allocation Priorities

Describe the basis for allocating investments geographically within the state

The geographic allocation of the City's CDBG funds is guided by the determination that these funds can have the greatest impact when targeted to specific areas and leveraged with other local, state and federal investments when possible. The CDBG LMI Census Tract map is attached. As provided for at 24 CFR Part 570.208(a)(1), the City may elect to use these target areas to meet National Objective requirements for selected projects that specifically meet the Area Benefit category of activities. Activities such as Economic Development and/or housing rehabilitation will be administered city-wide, but will have a direct benefit to a household or job created/retained. Because of the limited number of LMI tracts, most actvities undertaken by the City are citywide and documented through income verification or as a presumed benefit.

Introduction

The City anticipates that the only funds available for 2015 for the selected CDBG projects will be CDBG funds. The City will receive $541,216 in CDBG funds for 2015. These funds were allocated through a competitive application process and will assist numerous LMI persons. The projects will be completed by City departments and local nonprofits. The same competitive process was utilized for the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan and 2015 Annual Action Plan process. Funding for each year of the Con Plan will follow the same competitive process.

The City of West Jordan operates as a Mayor/Council form of government with a City Manager. The Mayor is full time but acts as a weak Mayor while the six Council Members are part-time employees. A full-time City Manager is responsible for carrying out the Mayor and Council policy directives and managing the day to day operations of the City. The Mayor is elected by the entire City and the Council

Consolidated Plan WEST JORDAN 286 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

is elected by the district of residence. Each year, a Mayor Pro Tem is assigned from among the current members to assume all duties and powers of the Mayor during the Mayor’s absence or disability. For more information on the Council contact the City Clerk’s Office at 8000 S. Redwood Road, West Jordan, Utah 84088.

The City will undertake the execution of the projects described in the 2015 Action Plan through the procurement and contracting of construction services. The City of West Jordan is the lead agency and will be responsible for said procurement of services from outside vendors to design and construct any ADA street improvements and for rehabilitation of owner occupied homes. Non-profit agencies will provide all public services for low and moderate-income persons from West Jordan. The City has qualified staff to administer the CDBG program and manage all projects.

Table 96 - Homeless Prevention Services Summary Describe how the service delivery system including, but not limited to, the services listed above meet the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth)

While there are agencies in the area that provide homeless services and housing in West Jordan, the City is limited on data that clearly documents homeless specific needs. This makes it difficult to pinpoint such needs. The City continues to rely on the local nonprofits to supply the data they have available for homeless needs. The above chart was completed by Salt Lake County.

Describe the strengths and gaps of the service delivery system for special needs population and persons experiencing homelessness, including, but not limited to, the services listed above

The City currently does not have the organizational capacity to address the homeless population and/or persons with special needs. Therefore, the City relies on the local nonprofits to provide their information and data. This is an area the City supports with CDBG funds.

Provide a summary of the strategy for overcoming gaps in the institutional structure and service delivery system for carrying out a strategy to address priority needs

The City has not adopted any specific strategies to address homelessness, the priority needs of homelessness, or persons at risk of becoming homeless. These efforts are coordinated with Salt Lake County that holds the responsibility of addressing the issue of Chronic Homelessness. The City’s objectives for addressing homelessness, as required by HUD Consolidated Plan regulations, will be as follows:

1. Establish outreach and planning with agencies that provide services and housing to the homeless to better document homeless needs for the City.

2. Work to develop partnerships with local homeless services, housing, and faith-based organizations to efficiently connect homeless persons with existing resources.

For the special needs population the City will be:

SP-65 Lead-based Paint Hazards - 91.415, 91.215(i) Actions to address LBP hazards and increase access to housing without LBP hazards

The City of West Jordan is addressing lead based paint issues through both the Minor Repair Program and the Moderate Repair Program funded by the CDBG Program. The City procured the services of a certified lead consultant for all rehab projects and downpayment assistance properties. We now have the ability to test the houses on a local level and bid out the required abatement or interim control work that is needed to each home prior to the regular rehabilitation work beginning. The majority of the homes assisted through our housing rehabilitation programs were built prior to 1978. In cases where there are substantial lead issues, the owners are referred to the Salt Lake County Lead Abatement program. All homes under the CDBG program are reviewed for lead base paint regardless of the age of the property. In addition, all homeowners or homebuyers are provided with information and certifications concerning the danger of lead poisoning.

How are the actions listed above integrated into housing policies and procedures?

HUD has issued regulations to protect persons from LBP hazards in housing built prior to 1978. The City of West Jordan is required to follow these Federal LBP regulations in implementing its housing rehabilitation and homebuyer programs. The requirements of the LBP regulations have been incorporated into the Policies and Procedures for the City’s housing rehabilitation and homebuyer programs. The nonâ¿Â•lead rehabilitation cost will determine what type of lead hazard reductions must be addressed and the appropriate notices that must be given to the homeowner.

The Housing Rehabilitation Policies and Procedures include the completion of accessibility improvements within units receiving assistance to the extent compatible with the rehabilitation work to be performed to enhance access and mobility for those homeowners who are disabled.

SP-70 Anti-Poverty Strategy - 91.415, 91.215(j) Jurisdiction Goals, Programs and Policies for reducing the number of Poverty-Level Families

The core premise of the antipoverty strategy is that employment is the vehicle through which those who are impoverished can best achieve the goal of self-sufficiency. The most efficient method for reaching this goal is for the City to strive for an economic climate that leads to the availability of a wide range of possible jobs available for these individuals. The City of West Jordan works closely with the local Chamber of Commerce and businesses that may be eligible for funding through the West Jordan and Salt Lake County Economic Development Loan Program.

Another strategy has been to coordinate with the State of Utah Workforce Development programs to determine if partnerships with service agencies could help the City achieve a reasonable antipoverty strategy.

How are the Jurisdiction poverty reducing goals, programs, and policies coordinated with this affordable housing plan

By directing resources to serve CDBG eligible areas, which are also those areas hardest hit by poverty in the following three ways:

 Human Capital: The City will invest in residents by enabling people at all income levels to lead healthier more productive lives by assisting with sustaining quality housing through the

rehabilitation program and through code enforcement efforts in reducing slum and blight.

 Neighborhoods: By enhancing the quality of life in West Jordan's neighborhoods, including public places, infrastructures and housing stock. Ensuring that these targeted neighborhoods are good

places to live and work.

 Economic Development: By expanding economic opportunities, especially employment opportunities, for low and moderate income residents through efforts to attract, retain and

expand small businesses throughout the City.

Consolidated Plan WEST JORDAN 299 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

The City is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of the CDBG Program and ensuring that CDBG funds are used in keeping with program requirements. Implementation of CDBG activities by other entities and sub recipients does not relieve the City of this responsibility. The three primary goals of the City’s monitoring procedures are to ensure production and accountability, ensure compliance with CDBG and other federal requirements, and to evaluate organizational and project performance. The monitoring plan includes the following: objectives of the monitoring plan, standardized procedures for reporting by funding recipients, standardized procedures for review and monitoring, how risk will be identified and addressed, frequency of meetings, monitoring reviews and inspections, pre-monitoring preparation, use of staff and other resources for monitoring, and monitoring "checklists".

The City performs a risk assessment to identify which funding recipients require comprehensive monitoring. High risk funding recipients include those that are new to the CDBG program, experiencing turnover in key staff positions, plagued by past compliance or performance problems, undertaking multiple CDBG funded activities for the first time, and not submitting timely reports.

For experienced funding recipients that are successfully carrying out activities, the City could plan a more narrowly focused monitoring to examine areas where the regulations have changed, new activities that are being undertaken, or program aspects that led to problems in the past. However, comprehensive monitoring reviews are conducted periodically, even for funding recipients with strong past performance. Even the most effective and efficient funding recipients can neglect their responsibilities if the City does not hold them accountable.

Program monitoring reviews may be conducted in two ways. The first is to conduct what is referred to as a "desk review." The second, more intensive way to monitor CDBG funded programs and organizations is to conduct an on-site monitoring review.

Other general areas for project monitoring include:

The City will monitor project schedule: Is the project on schedule and have all major milestones been met. If the project has been completed, are required annual reviews and re-certifications planned and scheduled for the coming year.

The City will monitor project accomplishments:

AP-85 Other Actions - 91.420, 91.220(k) Introduction

This section talks about additional ways in which the City will work to service certain areas of needs.

Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs

By directing resources to serve CDBG eligible areas, which are also those areas hardest hit by poverty in the following three ways:

• Human Capital: The City will invest in residents by enabling people at all income levels to lead healthier more productive lives by assisting with sustaining quality housing through the rehabilitation program and through code enforcement efforts in reducing slum and blight.

• Neighborhoods: By enhancing the quality of life in West Jordan's neighborhoods, including public places, infrastructures and housing stock. Ensuring that these targeted neighborhoods are good

places to live and work.

• Economic Development: By expanding economic opportunities, especially employment opportunities, for low and moderate income residents through efforts to attract, retain and

expand small businesses throughout the City.

Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing

The City of West Jordan continues to partner with the Utah Department of Community Affairs and Salt Lake County to access additional funds that are not available to West Jordan as an Entitlement Grantee directly from HUD. West Jordan frequently receives funding through the State’s Olene Walker Housing Trust Fund for development of senior housing opportunities and through the Salt Lake County Green and Healthy Home program to further the Moderate Rehabilitation Program for low income residents with medical conditions who own and occupy their homes. This program allows the homeowner to age in place for a longer period of time in a safe and sanitary home that is brought up to minimum property standards.

Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards

The City of West Jordan is addressing lead based paint issues through both the Minor Repair Program Consolidated Plan WEST VALLEY CITY 323 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

and the Moderate Repair Program funded by the CDBG Program. The City procured the services of a certified lead consultant for all rehab projects and downpayment assistance properties. We now have the ability to test the houses on a local level and bid out the required abatement or interim control work that is needed to each home prior to the regular rehabilitation work beginning. The majority of the homes assisted through our housing rehabilitation programs were built prior to 1978. In cases where there are substantial lead issues, the owners are referred to the Salt Lake County Lead Abatement program. All homes under the CDBG program are reviewed for lead base paint regardless of the age of the property. In addition, all homeowners or homebuyers are provided with information and certifications concerning the danger of lead poisoning.

Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families

The core premise of the anti-poverty strategy is that employment is the vehicle through which those who are impoverished can best achieve the goal of self-ÂÂÂ•sufficiency. The most efficient method for reaching this goal is for the City to strive for an economic climate that leads to the availability of a wide range of possible jobs available for these individuals. The City of West Jordan works closely with the local Chamber of Commerce and businesses that may be eligible for funding through the West Jordan and Salt Lake County Economic Development Loan Program.

Actions planned to develop institutional structure

The City of West Jordan operates as a Mayor/Council form of government with a City Manager. The Mayor is full-time but acts as a weak Mayor while the six Council Members are part-time employees. A full-time City Manager is responsible for carrying out the Mayor and Council policy directives and managing the day to day operations of the City. The Mayor is elected by the entire City and the Council is elected by the district of residence. Each year, a Mayor Pro Tem is assigned from among the current members to assume all duties and powers of the Mayor during the Mayor’s absence or disability. For more information on the Council contact the City Clerk’s Office at 8000 S. Redwood Road, West Jordan, Utah 84088.

will be responsible for said procurement of services from outside vendors to design and construct any ADA street improvements and for rehabilitation of owner occupied homes. Non-profit agencies will provide all public services for low and moderate-income persons from West Jordan. The city has qualified staff to administer the CDBG program and manage all projects.

Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies

By directing resources to serve CDBG eligible areas, which are also those areas hardest hit by poverty in the following three ways:

• Neighborhoods: By enhancing the quality of life in West Jordan's neighborhoods, including public places, infrastructures and housing stock. Ensuring that these targeted neighborhoods are good places to live and work.

• Economic Development: By expanding economic opportunities, especially employment opportunities, for low and moderate income residents through efforts to attract, retain and expand small businesses throughout the City.

Executive Summary

ES-05 Executive Summary - 91.200(c), 91.220(b) 1. Introduction

West Valley City has transformed from an agricultural community to a diverse suburban community with a large employment base. The City is now over 85 percent built out, with a third of all land in the City developed as commercial or industrial. New private development renovation and UTA Trax public transit projects have created positive changes for the City.

West Valley City General Plan: Vision West 2030 is a good example of the joint effort put forth by West Valley City officials, residents, business owners, land owners, and representatives from several different agencies addressing the issues, goals, and actions deemed important. This plan was developed after extensive public input and research process, which helped the City create a collective vision for the future and goals and actions to reach that vision. The Vision West 2030 results have been combined with HUD specific goals and public input to help West Valley City determine strengths and course of action.

This plan provides a vision for the City and seeks to accomplish orderly growth and high quality developments. West Valley City will continue development and revitalization of opportunity corridors to maintain the City's role as a major regional employment center, preserve important open space as valued community asset and to maximize the potential of future transportation and transit investments in the City.

2. Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan

West Valley City has diligently worked to preserve residential communities, and will work to proactively address important neighborhood issues that detract from their safety and vitality. The vision of West Valley City is to maintain a variety of housing for people of different ages, races, ethnicities and socio- economic statuses. Such housing should include quality architecture that address the street; provide amenities such as trails, parks; open space; create safe and attractive neighborhoods; and promote resource conservation.

Consolidated Plan WEST VALLEY CITY 328 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

The City will continue to establish a diverse and vibrant economic base, in order to retain and enhance manufacturing and industry opportunities, shape the emerging activity in important opportunity corridors, provide efficient and fair business review, and celebrate the ethnic and cultural diversity within the City.

West Valley City has begun to pursue an urban design strategy that includes a greater intensity of development creating a recognizable downtown; utilizing transit more extensively; conserving resources; promoting attractive streetscapes; with the potential to include pedestrian and bicycle accommodations, while taking advantage of existing infrastructure.

3. Evaluation of past performance

CDBG funds were allocated to several Public Services and projects throughout the last five years. Duplication of services are carefully watched and new programs are funded if the need is there. West Valley City remains a high performer in reporting and spending their funds. All of the funding awarded under West Valley City’s CDBG and HOME programs were used for activities that benefit LMI persons.

West Valley City has been successful in accomplishing the majority of the established goals and objectives, set forth in the previous Con Plan. During the tail end of the 2013-2014 FY the City and CDCU were successful in completing and selling the first home under the new Home Facelift Project, with one more completed home already under contract and another home already being started. The addition of this new project will continue to assist the City in its goal of decent housing by focusing some reserved funding on deteriorating homes and neighborhoods.

West Valley City has been dedicated to allocating CDBG and HOME funds to the programs that support neighborhood improvement and revitalization needs. Programs such as Emergency Repair and Minor Maintenance (ERMMA), Home Rehabilitation Loans, Mobile Home grants and Code Enforcement were big expenditures for West Valley City throughout the previous years, in keeping with the programs that support the core goals. At the same time the City recognizes the importance of the public service programs and what an invaluable resource they are to the residents, and therefore has continued to support the providing organizations to the greatest extent feasible. Increased funding over the past couple years has made it possible for the City to fund a greater number of the public service projects available to the residents of West Valley City.

West Valley City Grants and the Housing Authority staff will continue to sit on various committees and actively participate in:

 Continuum of Care Committee  Long Range Planning Committee  Salt Lake County HOME Consortium  Utah Grants Coordinating Council

7. Summary

West Valley City Grants Office is the lead department. The Grants Office, which is part of the Community Preservation Department, administers and oversees the CDBG funds, while Salt Lake County oversees the HOME reporting and West Valley City administers our allocation of HOME funds. Both funding sources allow the City to fund areas of need.

The Grants Office conducted meetings where representatives of many different service providing agencies were invited. These meetings help to ascertain what those agencies feel are the most serious problems facing our community. The meetings lead to the submission of projects by the various agencies.

There are a variety of non-profit and other community organizations currently involved in the West Valley City area, these agencies have coordinated and consulted with the City in the past. These agencies include, but are not limited to:

 Community Action program  Salt Lake County Consortium  The Road Home  Valley Mental Health  Salt Lake County Division of Aging  West Valley City Planning & Zoning Division  The West Valley City Neighborhood Services  Rape Crisis Center  United Way 211

The West Valley City General Plan(s) reflect significant public involvement over the space of a year and a half. Residents, business owners, land owners, public officials, and representatives from several different agencies participated in the crafting of the issues, goals and actions of this document. The City

Consolidated Plan WEST VALLEY CITY 331 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

is currently in the final stages of creating and adopting a new General Plan: Vision West 2035, and parts of this ConPlan will reflect new goals or direction as they pertain to Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) or HOME funds.

The purpose of this document is to provide a vision for the future of the City and to ensure orderly growth and high quality developments. West Valley City seeks to continue development and revitalization of opportunity corridors to maintain the City's role as a major regional employment center, preserve important open space as a valued community asset and maximize the potential of transportation and transit investments in the City.

Agency Role Name Department/Agency Lead Agency WEST VALLEY CITY CDBG Administrator Table 102– Responsible Agencies

Narrative

The West Valley City municipal government and specifically the Community Preservation Department, which houses the Grants Office and the West Valley City Housing Authority, are the entities most involved with the provision of housing services. These services are funded through the Community Development Block Grant program, HUD appropriations, HOME funds and some general taxation funds.

The institutional capabilities of the non-profits identified above are not completely known. Their staffing needs are not part of this research process. Coordination with these agencies has been excellent in the past and will continue on an ongoing basis. Most of the coordination will occur through the West Valley City Housing Authority and Grants Office. These roles and relationships will continue throughout the planning period.

The West Valley City Grants Office is administered by the elected councilpersons of West Valley City. The Grants Office is administered as a Division of the Community Preservation Department. Hiring, contracting, and procurement all comply with established City and HUD policies.

PR-10 Consultation - 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l) 1. Introduction

West Valley City General Plans, which have been developed simultaneously and in conjunction with the Consolidated Plans are a good example of the joint effort put forth by West Valley City officials, residents, business owners, land owners, and representatives from several different agencies addressing the issues, goals, and actions deemed important. These plans were developed after extensive public input and research process, which helped the City create a collective vision for the future and goals and actions to reach that vision.

Throughout the plan process, many agencies were contacted via email or letter and asked to participate and coordinate with our efforts. In each subject area, resource agencies were identified and asked to attend. Consultations were performed to obtain information about perceived needs and data that could lend to our research process.

There have been many opportunities for coordination within City government, with other adjacent communities, and with various resource providers. This has been a particularly strong effort on the part of the City to assure access to various groups, the consortium members, State and area-wide agencies.

The City has also used social media in the past year for a broader exposure with residents in order to gain insight from them and encourage a greater participation process.

Consolidated Plan WEST VALLEY CITY 335 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

The Community Preservation Department houses the Grants Office and the West Valley City Housing Authority, which are the entities most involved with the provision of housing services. The West Valley City Housing Authority is a member of the Continuum of Care and receives multiple Shelter Plus Care grants as such.

The City maintains a cooperative working relationship with their own West Valley City Housing Authority, as well as, Salt Lake County Housing Authority. The WVCHA has been consulted with a number of times during this process to help determine what the greatest needs for homeless persons, or those in jeapordy of becoming homeless, might be according to the perspective of the local CoC. The WVCHA has assisted the City in finding ways to address homelessness before it occurs and we are currently working on a partnership to address some of these issues, including the prospect of new programs that would assist homeless youth.

Executive Summary

ES-05 Executive Summary - 91.200(c), 91.220(b) 1. Introduction

The City of Taylorsville, Utah was incorporated on July 1, 1996. Prior to this time, the City was known as the unincorporated area of Taylorsville-Bennion. The City of Taylorsville is bordered by West Valley City to the north, Murray City and an unincorporated area of Salt Lake County to the east, West Jordan City to the south, and an unincorporated are of Salt Lake County known as Kearns to the west. According to the 2010 U.S. Census, the population of Taylorsville was 58,652. The estimated population of Taylorsville as of January 1, 2014 was 59,630. Additional housing permits have been issued and constructed between 2010 and 2015, which has further increased the population in Taylorsville. The estimated population count is projected to be 60,800 by 2020.

The Consolidated One-Year Action Plan was adopted by the City for the U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) program year 2015-2016. This Consolidated One-Year Action Plan document has been adopted by the City Council as a valid plan for the City and reflects what is stated in the 2015-2019 Five-Year Strategic Consolidated Action Plan.

The City of Taylorsville is approaching 100% build-out, as as such has needs of community infrastructure, community and recreation facilities, redevelopment policies and implementations, housing rehabilitation, neighborhood compliance or code enforcement, affordable housing including down payment assistance, assistance for the homeless, and public services. Reinventing or redeveloping in the community is a high priority. These activities are addressed in the Consolidated Five-Year Strategic Plan as well as this One-Year Action Plan. The City of Taylorsville has received CDBG and HOME assistance for the above needs in the past. Federal funds have been a valuable resource for Taylorsville, especially for its low-moderate income citizens. The City has also provided general funds to address many of the above needs. Public safety, economic development, and revitalizing the community are essential components for the community.

As of 2015, there are two census tracts (1135.12 and 1135.14) and 3 block groups (1135.23-2, 1135.10- 3, and 1135.15-3) that qualify as low to moderate income areas. These census tracts and block groups

Consolidated Plan TAYLORSVILLE 376 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

include 18 apartment complexes and three manufactured home parks, as well as single-family homes and duplexes.

Priorities and strategies that have been put in place are within this document. Citizen participation is encouraged for the development of the consolidated plan, especially low-moderate income citizens and non-profit agencies that are recipients of federal funding. This document describes how the City desires to increase economic development opportunities, reduce pverty, and coordinates with private agencies to increase job opportunities. There are many non-profit agencies that serve low-income families and individuals in Taylorsville.

2. Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan

The objective of the City of Taylorsville's Consolidated Plan is to identify the greatest needs within the City and through a public process and public input, with input from a variety of agencies and organizations, develop a five year strategy to address and mitigate the greatest needs and in this year's plan layout how the funding received will be used to address and mitigate those some of those needs from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016.

PR-10 Consultation - 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l) 1. Introduction

All HUD regulations and statutes will be followed in regards to development or services. The CDBG consultant will account for all HUD funding mechanisms that are required for the CDBG and the HOME programs. All agencies receiving CDBG funding will be monitored at least every quarter to determine what they have accomplished and what will be needed to successfully spend their CDBG funding allocations. Within all quarterly reports each non-profit organization or other type of organization that is provided CDBG or HOME funding tallies personal income categories/type of person, household type or race. During 2013-2014 the City reorganized their quarterly reports to tally all female headed households, disabled, and male or female that are served by CDBG and HOME funding.

On an annual basis the City of Taylorsville will conduct a risk assessment of programs funded by CDBG. This will be done to ensure production and accountability; ensure compliance with CDBG and other federal requirements; and evaluate organizational and project performance. The regulations require that the performance of each sub grantee receiving CDBG funds must be reviewed by grantees at least annually. More frequent reviews may be appropriate based on the length and complexity of the activity being undertaken and the experience and capacity of the sub grantee. Those programs with a high level of risk will receive an on site comprehensive monitoring visit. This will include not only financial and administrative reviews but also program implementation reviews. There is an on-going review and approval of project expenditures to verify they are appropriate and are eligible under the CDBG guidelines and meet the requirements of the sub grantee written agreement. A quarterly review of expenditures is made to determine if programs/projects are spending their funds timely. A semi-annual review of all projects is presented to the City Council for their review. Financial information as well as program information is presented to the City Council.

The City of Taylorsville works closely with Salt Lake County as the lead agency in the Consortium and therefore references the work done by Salt Lake County below:

Needs Assessment

NA-05 Overview Needs Assessment Overview

Overall the economy of Utah and in the City of Taylorsville has improved. Unemployment has fallen below 4% and housing values are now increasing. The greatest challenge remains for low to very low income households. Even with the economy improving the number of homeless has increased. This has been caused by the decrease in funding for rental assistance and lack of affordable rental houisng. The vacancy of rental housing that is affordable for low income households is nearly zero percent.

NA-50 Non-Housing Community Development Needs - 91.415, 91.215 (f) Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Facilities:

The City of Taylorsville has a growing senior citizen population and as such has made improvements and constructed an additon to its Senior Citizen Center. It is anticipated that this senior segment of our population will continue to grow over the next 20-30 years with the need for additional space, activities, and programs for the senior citizens.

How were these needs determined?

A review of the City's demographics was conducted in 2014. The result of that review shows that there will be a continuous 20% growth in the senior citizen cohort of the City's population.

Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Improvements:

The City of Taylorsville has two census tracts (1135.12 and 1135.14) and 3 block groups (1135.23-2, 1135.10-3, and 1135.15-3) that qualify as lot to moderate income areas. The City is continually looking for ways to provide public facilities in these areas. The City has funded the replacement of sidewalks and installed new curb and gutters in the aforementioned eligible CDBG areas.

How were these needs determined?

An annual assesment of the condition of roads, curbs, gutters, and sidewalks is conducted by our Public Works Department.

Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Services:

The City of Taylorsville has approximately 12% (11.7% according to the 2010 U.S. Census), or approximately 7,000 individuals at or below poverty level. These individuals have needs for public services that are offered as a result of funding made available through CDBG funds. These public service providers include: YMCA, Rape Recovery Center, Boys and Girls Club, Senior Center van driver, Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Utah, and the food pantry.

How were these needs determined?

A review of the demographics from the 2010 U.S. Census and referrals from public service agencies.

Housing Market Analysis

MA-05 Overview Housing Market Analysis Overview:

A national state-by-state status report on rental housing puts data behind what residents have been saying for years: When it comes to Utah's rental market, they can't make it here any more.

The Out of Reach report assesses the relationship between rental housing costs and the capacity of low- wage earners to pay for it.

"The numbers back what we've been saying the past five years," Rollins said. "Housing costs continue to rise to levels far beyond the reach of low-income workers."

Since 2005, the affordable hourly wage has increased from $12.95 to a little more than $14, she said.

State and local elected officials won't be surprised by the report, Rollins said, but "any effort to help ease the burden low-income Utahns face is basically already spoken for."

The City of Taylorsville participates in the Salt Lake County Consortium and therefore supports and participates with Salt Lake County in adopting HUD’s goal of ending Veteran Homelessness by 2015, ending Chronic Homelessness by 2017, and ending Family and Youth homelessness by 2020. In support of these goals, multiple facilities have been developed in Salt Lake County to end homeless for these populations by providing them with safe, affordable housing with on-site access to services. This includes:

Consolidated Plan TAYLORSVILLE 415 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

Describe the strengths and gaps of the service delivery system for special needs population and persons experiencing homelessness, including, but not limited to, the services listed above

The following statements are part of the Salt Lake County Consortium: The major strength of the homeless services delivery system in Salt Lake County is the widespread adoption of the “Housing First” philosophies by Permanent Housing projects; both Permanent Supportive Housing as well as Rapid Rehousing. Housing First includes access to safe affordable housing with minimum entry barriers. It also includes regular access to flexible case management and other supportive services designed to increase housing stability and self-sufficiency. Participation in services is voluntary. This has led to a Statewide 91% decrease in Chronic Homelessness since 2005.

Although there is a homeless housing and service delivery system in Salt Lake County, there continues to be a gap in services for homeless subpopulations not included in the federal homeless goals. The federal homeless goals include ending: Veteran, Chronic, Family, and Youth homelessness. Additional resources are needed to meet the housing and service needs of Non-Veteran Homeless households without children.

Provide a summary of the strategy for overcoming gaps in the institutional structure and service delivery system for carrying out a strategy to address priority needs

The City of Taylorsville is a partner with Salt Lake County and sits on the committee for ending chronic homelessness. As such we are co-creators with Salt Lake County in creating the main objectives in the Salt Lake County 10 Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness which includes:

SP-65 Lead-based Paint Hazards - 91.415, 91.215(i) Actions to address LBP hazards and increase access to housing without LBP hazards

The City will increase the awareness and communication among property owners and residents of the hazards of lead based paint and will accomplish this means by the use of the media, technology and word of mouth. The Salt Lake Valley Health Department has released a pamphlet to the public explaining what is lead poisoning, what lead can be in and the safety guidelines for de-leading. Additional information is on the Salt Lake Valley Health Department web site www.slvhealth.org/. The City will continue to educate the public in regards to lead based paint.

Salt Lake County has a lead safe program available to families that are eligible. This program provides free services including: lead testing, blood screening, window replacement and repainting.

During program year 2014-2015, the City will complete the following concerning lead-based paint hazards:

 Continue to require a letter or notice from the Utah Air Quality stating any mitigation requirements that will remove any problems related to lead-based paint hazards.  Continue to provide pamphlets, newsletters or educate the public on what lead poisoning is, and what can be done to safely remove lead-based paint hazards.  Refer residents to the household hazardous material disposal facility and the lead safe program available through Salt Lake County.

How are the actions listed above integrated into housing policies and procedures?

Promote preservation and rehabilitation of existing housing stock through the HOME Investment Partnership Act, the Olene Walker Trust Fund, the Assist Emergency Home Repair Program (ASSIST), the Weatherization Program, the HEAT program, the Green and Healthy Home Initiative, Idea House, and other housing rehabilitation programs. There are a variety of programs that homeowners can make application through the State of Utah or other political entities. Grants or low interest loans are options to rehabilitate the existing housing stock. Applicants can call 211 to understand what housing rehabilitation programs are available.

The City of Taylorsville will continue to promote low and moderate-income households with first time home ownership programs through the Utah Housing Corporation and other low interest first time home ownership programs. The City will also continue to support and provide grants to various subgrantees that focus on housing for low to moderate income households and individuals. The progams that receive funding from CDBG funds granted to the City of Taylorsville all have policies and procedures for prospective projects for rehabilitation or first time buyers that incorporate both lead based paint and other hazardous or unsafe materials inspections.

SP-70 Anti-Poverty Strategy - 91.415, 91.215(j) Jurisdiction Goals, Programs and Policies for reducing the number of Poverty-Level Families

According to the 2010 U.S. Census, 1,307 families (9.7% of the total families) in Taylorsville are in poverty status. That number equates to 7,507 individuals that are in poverty status, of which 239 are 65 years or older, and 3,562 are children 17 years old and younger. The City will target and assist those families in poverty or near poverty with housing rehabilitation programs or the home owner down payment assistance program. City staff or its CDBG coordinator will work with agencies such as ASSIST to be sure that these housing activities are pursued and completed.

The City of Taylorsville will also expand their reach to the segment of our population who have under served or special needs. Any comments received from these groups will be examined and accounted for to determine what, if any, new priorities are needed as a result of this input. The City of Taylorsville will evaluate possible funding allocations, social agency referrals, and educational opportunities that may provide solutions for the under served or special needs groups.

How are the Jurisdiction poverty reducing goals, programs, and policies coordinated with this affordable housing plan

The City of Taylorsville realized the importance of providing adequate income employment for its low- moderate income citizens. There are many services and retail oriented low-moderate income employment opportunities within the City. There are also several job training programs available within the City of Taylorsville that are designed to assist people develop and upgrade work skills. One such organization is Workforce Services. This is a company that specializes in matching the skill set of a particular individual with available jobs within the metropolitan Salt Lake City area.

There is considerable cross-referencing between sub-grantees that receive funding from CDBG funds allocated to the City of Taylorsville. We have found that this interconnectivity is able to identify those that are at risk of poverty and then direct these individuals to the programs that can best address their needs. The City of Taylorsville will continue to encourage this type of comprehensive services and referrals.

Consolidated Plan TAYLORSVILLE 424 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

Those programs that score a very low risk on the assessment will still receive an on-site monitoring review but only every two to three years. Each sub-grantee will be required to have an on-site monitoring visit every three years no matter what their risk level is. Projects undertaken by the City of Taylorsville will be monitored for performance and timeliness. Progress reports are required from sub grantees and administering agents. These quarterly reports could flag a potential problem, as well as determine if the projects are on schedule and have met all major milestones. These reports serve to review project accomplishments. Periodic site visits will be made to evaluate progress in meeting the goals and objectives of the sub-grantee in conjunction with the goals of the Annual Action Plan and the Five Year Consolidated Plan.

In regards to the HOME homeowner down payment assistance program all loans will have Deed’s of Trust recorded on the title reports so they cannot sell or refinance without the City’s approval. On-site

Executive Summary

ES-05 Executive Summary - 91.200(c), 91.220(b) 1. Introduction

The City of South Jordan in partnership with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is required to have in place a five-year consolidated plan as a grantee of funding for the Community Development Block Group (CDBG) program. The consolidated plan represents the needs and strategic objectives that are utilized on an annual basis in identifying funded projects. Projects, including funding amounts, expected benefits and consistency with with the consolidated plan are described in annual action plans.

In 2012 the City of South Jordan was approved by HUD as a grantee for the CDBG program. The 2015 program year is the City’s fourth year as a CDBG grantee and would have been the fourth year of the City’s consolidated plan (2012-2016 Consolidated Plan). In order to achieve some of the City’s housing objectives, the consolidated plan recommended that the City “apply to participate in the Salt Lake County HOME Consortium.” (2012-2016 Consolidated Plan, page 52) The City joined the HOME Consortium in 2014. As a member of the HOME Consortium, HUD has directed the City to participate in the update of the County’s consolidated plan and the resulting consolidated plan will replace the City’s 2012-2016 Consolidated Plan.

This document represents the City’s portion of the County’s 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan; the needs, strategic objectives, and 2015 Annual Action Plan are specific to the City. As the County’s 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan will replace the City’s 2012-2016 Consolidated Plan, this document will reflect the portions of the 2012-2016 Consolidated Plan that remain pertinent in light of an updated needs assessment and housing market analysis.

Table: Goals, Needs and Objectives Summary

Consolidated Plan SOUTH JORDAN 439 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

3. Evaluation of past performance

The amount of CDBG funds received by a grantee each year is determined by HUD according to "a formula comprised of several measures of community needs, including the extent of poverty, population, housing overcrowding, age of housing, and population growth lag in relationship to other metropolitan areas." (www.portal.hud.gov, 1/24/13) Since becoming a grantee, the City has received the lowest annual allotment of all grantees in a seven state region (Region VIII). The City’s annual allocation reflects a relatively small, but rapidly growing, population, and the lack of community concerns, at least at a lower scale, that many other communities face. The City’s modest allocation of CDBG funding requires a simple program and the careful selection of projects. The City strives to address the unique and specific existing concerns in the community in a way that is also preventative of those concerns becoming larger future problems.

While maintaining a simple program, the City has been effectively addressing all objectives of the 2012- 2016 Consolidated Plan. The City has also utilized other funding sources and staff time to leverage CDBG funds. The 2012-2016 Consolidated Plan included the following goals and objectives:

Program Goal: Preservation and expansion of safe and decent housing

Objectives:

 Maintaining existing housing stock.  Encouraging affordable housing.  Supporting agencies which provide homeless prevention, shelter, and services.  Supporting agencies which serve victims of domestic violence.

Program Goals: A suitable living environment

Objectives:

 Improving public facilities used by seniors.  Providing transportation services for seniors.  Addressing accessibility deficiencies in public facilities.  Addressing the needs of abused and neglected children and other special needs populations.

In the three years of the 2012-2016 Consolidated Plan, the City will have received $509,055 in CDBG funds. It is anticipated, based on previous expenditures, current allocations, and a proposed amendment to the 2014-2015 AAP, that the will have expended the funds according to following breakdown:

 Public Services: $76,356.90 (15%)  Housing: $15,000 (2.9%)

Consolidated Plan SOUTH JORDAN 440 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

 Non-Housing: $339,990.77 (66.8%)  Planning/Administration: $72,707.33 (14.3%)  Unused funds: $5,000 (1.0%)

The City has identified some areas in which to improve upon in the future. While public service providers have been activity involved in public outreach, the City’s public outreach efforts have not generated a significant amount of input from residents. The City is seeking more effective outreach methods. Additionally, as a relatively new grantee, many residents, stakeholders, city staff and elected officials are not familiar with the CDBG program. A greater level of awareness and understanding about the CDBG program would contribute to more effectively addressing needs within the community.

4. Summary of citizen participation process and consultation process

The process used to prepare the Consolidated Plan followed the City's Citizen Participation Plan (attached). The City's Citizen Participation Plan was adopted in March 2012 to guide the development of the Consolidated Plans, Annual Action Plans, and amendments to those plans. The Citizen Participation Plan ensures that the community has the opportunity to work in partnership with the City to identify needs and to allocate CDBG funds. The Citizen Participation Plan established the following standards for citizen involvement:

15. All citizen participation is to be done openly. 16. Involvement of low- and moderate-income persons, minorities, project area residents, elderly, handicapped and others is to be evident. 17. Reasonable efforts to ensure continuity of involvement of citizens throughout all stages of the CDBG program are to be evident. 18. Timely and adequate information is to be given to citizens. 19. Citizens are encouraged to submit their views and proposals regarding the Consolidated Plan and use of CDBG funds.

In the process of conducting the Needs Assessment and Market Analysis, the City relied upon input from a wide range of sources through meetings, interviews, phone calls, emails, reports, research, funding request applications, public hearings, and site visits. The City relied on information from public service providers, housing providers, Salt Lake County, other local municipalities, regional agencies, residents, and City departments. A public hearing was held on September 16, 2014 to address community needs and a second public hearing will be held on April 7, 2015. The Consolidated Plan and first-year Annual Action Plan were available for review during a public comment period from April 1, 2015 through April 30, 2015.

5. Summary of public comments

During the September 16, 2014 public hearing, the Road Home and Salt Lake Community Action Program commented regarding the needs in the community and the services their organizations

provide. Comments were received mainly from public service providers at the public hearing held on April 7, 2015.

6. Summary of comments or views not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them

All comments were accepted.

7. Summary

While more input from residents would be beneficial and modest funding amounts limits some project types, the City is confident that CDBG funds are being used to effectively address needs and benefit residents.

PR-10 Consultation - 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l) 1. Introduction

South Jordan City first became a grantee for a HUD program (CDBG) in 2012. In many cases, the preparation of the 2012-2017 Consolidated Plan initiated the City’s relationship with many housing and public service providers in the region. In the subsequent three years, the City has consistently worked to build those relationships and reach out to others. The City has sought the input from many of those agencies in the preparation of this plan.

The CDBG committee annually reviews all funding request applications and regularly meets with providers and tours their facilities. Multiple times the committee has sought out public service providers to meet underserved needs in the City. The CDBG Administrator works with providers funded by the City, including on-site visits and reviews of quarterly reports. The City holds two public hearings each year to address the use of CDBG funds, which are routinely attended by public service providers.

As a relatively small grantee and receiving a modest amount of CDBG funding, the City has sought to address housing issues through other resources. In 2014, the City joined the local HOME Consortium. Participating in the HOME Consortium has introduced the City to a wider range of housing providers in the community. It has also strengthened the City’s relationship and coordination with the County, as the lead agency of the HOME consortium, and other municipalities in the region, as fellow members of the Consortium. In preparation for the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan, the City and the Housing Authority of Salt Lake County have met to discuss better coordination and alignment of goals.

 Take a system approach instead of a program approach;

Consolidated Plan SOUTH JORDAN 445 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

 Be more data driven;  Involve a broad group of diverse stakeholders; and  Implement common principles and common metric throughout the community.

The steering committee is working on finalizing an agenda of goals, policies, and systems for the Continuum. It is their hope that municipalities will adopt the agenda to align housing decisions in the region. Until the agenda is in place, the Continuum has encouraged the cities to support HUD’s goals of ending veteran homelessness, ending chronic homelessness, and ending family and youth homelessness. The intent being that the systems and programs are in place so that those in danger of homelessness have the necessary resources available to them.

The City does not receive ESG funds and does not administer the HMIS program.

Needs Assessment

NA-05 Overview Needs Assessment Overview

The rapid growth in the City is the most significant driver of the City’s needs. From the 1960 Census, with a population of 1,354, to the 2010 Census, with a population of 50,418, the City has averaged a doubling of the population every decade. At submittal of this Consolidated Plan, the City’s population is estimated to be approximately 65,000, continuing to grow at an annual average rate of over 5% since the 2010 Census. The growing population puts a strain on infrastructure and services. The changing demographics also requires changes in services provided.

NA-50 Non-Housing Community Development Needs - 91.415, 91.215 (f) Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Facilities:

The City has been experiencing significant population growth. The fastest growing age group in the City has been seniors (65 and over). The City currently estimates that the senior age group has grown by 34.5% since 2010, as opposed to 27.2% growth in total population. One of the public facilities most affected is the City’s senior center. The facility is used heavily and the need for additional space is an increasing concern.

The City has taken significant steps in recent years to address architectural barriers to accessibility at public facilities, however necessary improvements are occasionally identified.

How were these needs determined?

Analysis of U.S. Census Bureau information.

Interviews with the director and assistant director of the Community Services Department and the director of the Strategic Services Department.

Meetings with the Staff Working Group.

Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Improvements:

A large majority of the City’s neighborhoods were built in the last thirty years. These are neighborhoods that have improvements and amenities that are in good condition. However, a few areas in the City have housing that is significantly older. These older neighborhoods lack improvements and amenities equivalent to current City standards and levels of services.

The majority of the City’s growth has extended the developed area of the City westward. The westward development has strained water and transportation infrastructure. Additionally, the region generally lacks sufficient east/west transportation infrastructure. Adequate water is also an ongoing concern in the region.

How were these needs determined?

Interviews with directors of the Public Works, Development Services, and City Commerce Departments.

Describe the jurisdiction’s need for Public Services:

The City provided programming and services for seniors. The rapid growth of the senior population in the City has created challenges for adequate on-going programming and services. Anecdotal information provided by the City’s Community Services Department, responsible for senior programming and services, is that much of the growth in the senior population has been younger and more active seniors. The City is striving to respond with changes in the types of programming and services provided.

The City has historically been known for its large lot single-family homes, and the City has trended above the state and the country in family size. The 2013 ACS (3-year) shows an average family size of 3.87, compared to 3.62 for Salt Lake County, 3.65 for Utah and 3.25 for the country. The City is sensitive to the needs of larger families and the essential needs of all city residents.

Housing Market Analysis

MA-05 Overview Housing Market Analysis Overview:

The City conducted a housing study (Housing Needs Study) in 2014. This section is taken from the executive summary of he Housing Needs Study. The full report is available at www.sjc.utah.gov/pdf/planning-HousingPLAN.pdf. A supplemental section of the study, intended to serve as the City's Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing, is attached to this plan.

South Jordan is a rapidly-growing City in Salt Lake County. The City scores well in factors such as education, livability, economic prosperity, giving the City high scores with HUD and State agencies in access to opportunity matrices. These successes, plus a strong geographical location in the Valley have driven demand to live in the City very high in the last decade, driving up housing costs and presenting challenges in providing affordable housing.

The City has primarily high-quality, new, single-family homes with large lot sizes. Half of all homes have been built since 1990. Multi-family units are less common, but have increased in recent years.

(See Table 1: Summary of Housing Stock in South Jordan)

Although rental units are usually desired as affordable units, single-family homes are actually more affordable than rentals in the City. This is largely a result of homes in Daybreak built on small lots. These homes are more affordable with a lower purchase price, but they are high quality with higher value per acre than the rest of the City.

Rental units in the City are mostly high-end market rate units with little affordability and no rental subsidy programs. This is the largest barrier to affordable housing in South Jordan because, although there are many affordable single-family properties, those with the most need for affordable housing often have difficulty obtaining a mortgage to purchase a home.

The City is short affordable units for low- and very low-income households, but has an excess of units for moderate-income households. The affordability of housing for these households is determined by setting income ranges based on HUD’s Area Median Income (AMI), and then assuming that housing costs should not exceed 30 percent of a household’s income. The tables below summarizes these affordability levels and the units available in the City for these households.

(See Table 2: Summary of Housing Needs in South Jordan & Table 3:Housing Affordability in South Jordan.)

MA-45 Non-Housing Community Development Assets - 91.410, 91.210(f) Introduction

Residents in South Jordan, in general, are well-educated and households have relatively high incomes. Good jobs are available in high-tech manufacturing, education, health services, and professional/management areas. The competition for employees is considered a drawback for many employers. Ensuring that the transportation infrastructre and housing is in place to provide access to jobs and on-going eductaion and skill training is essential to maintain a continued strength and growth in the area.

Based on the Business Activity table above, what are the major employment sectors within your jurisdiction?

The major employment sectors, by share of jobs in the city are:

25. Professional, Scientific, Management Services (21%) 26. Education and Health Services (16%) 27. Manufacturing (15%) 28. Retail Trade (15%) 29. Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate (8%)

Describe the workforce and infrastructure needs of the business community:

Businesses attracted to the community and the expansion of existing businesses are in need of educated and skilled employees. Infrastructure challenges are also a restriction for some businesses desiring to locate to the area. The greatest needs and limiting factors being water and water infrastructure, lack of wide spread fiber optic infrastructure, and improved transportation connections. Transportation can also be a challenge in the region for the workforce having access between jobs and housing. Regional attitudes, adverse to the use of CDA funds to attract

Consolidated Plan SOUTH JORDAN 469 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

retail, has also been seen as a restriction to attracting large employers in certain areas. Large employers have expressed interest in quality retail to support their workforce.

A special service district is being considered in the Daybreak community, a 4,000 acre master planned community on the west side of the City, to install a new water tank and other water infrastructure. Water infrastructure and other future infrastructre associated with the Daybreak community is likely attract additional business growth, and job opporitunities, to the west side of the City.

How do the skills and education of the current workforce correspond to employment opportunities in the jurisdiction?

Good jobs are available in high-tech manufacturing, education, health services, and professional management. The City’s workforce is well educated and well trained. However, the competition for a skilled and educated workforce is viewed as a restriction to attracting new employers that would provide quality jobs. On-going education and training in areas such as math and science and ensuring that the workforce has access to employment centers is needed to continue to attract businesses with quality jobs.

The City has been working with Salt Lake Community College to establish a small-business incubator program. Businesses would be awarded, on a competitive basis, financial assistance, training, and access to office space. Additionally, the local school district (Jordan School District) has a strong technology program and the state has recently approved pay raises for teachers in math and science.

MA-50 Needs and Market Analysis Discussion Are there areas where households with multiple housing problems are concentrated? (include a definition of "concentration")

The 2009-2013 American Community Survey (2013 ACS) reports at total of 15,477 housing units in the City. The City has experienced significant growth in the last couple of decades. The total population of the City, on average has doubled every decade since 1960. According to the 2013 ACS, 81.5% (12,615) of the housing units in the City have been built since 1990. Only 1.8% (275) of the housing units were built prior to 1960. The 2013 ACS reports that 12 units lack complete plumbing facilities, 88 lack complete kitchen facilities, and 147 lack available telephone service. It is likely that the housing units with the reported housing problems are some of the older housing units in the City. The housing units built prior to 1960 are distributed between eleven different block groups (geographical areas defined by the U.S. Census Bureau). Block group 2 of census tract 1130.11, located between Redwood Road and 2200 W. from 10600 S. to the south boundary of the City, has the highest share (9.7%) of homes built prior to 1960. However, the median year built in this block group is 1999.

Only two block groups in the City have a majority of housing units built prior to 1990. Block group 1 of census tract 1130.10, located at approximately 2200 W. to 2700 W. and 9800 S. to 10600 S., has only 42.6% built after 1990. The majority of its housings units (57.4%) were built between 1960 and 1990, and no existing units were built before 1960. This block group has a median age built for housing units at 1988. Block group 1 of census tract 1130.07, located at approximately 4000 W. to 4800 W. and 9800 S. to the north boundary of the City, has only 36.4%% built after 1990. The majority of its housings units (63.6%) were built between 1960 and 1990, and no existing units were built before 1960. This block group has the earliest median age built for housing units at 1985.

Are there any areas in the jurisdiction where racial or ethnic minorities or low-income families are concentrated? (include a definition of "concentration")

There are twenty-three Census block groups that contain portions of the City, however, four block groups contain minor areas with relatively few, if any, South Jordan residents. Of the remaining nineteen block groups, eight have a share of minorities in the individual block group that exceeds the share of minorities in the nineteen block groups as a whole (11.6%). Block Group 1 of Tract 1130.07 has the highest share of minorities (23.5%) in the City. Of the eight block groups with a higher concentration of minorities, six of them are centrally located (approximately 2200 W. to 4800 W.) along the City's northern border (approximately 9400 S. to 9800 S.). Two (Tract 1130.07, Block Groups 1 & 2) of these six block groups are located in the Glenmoor neighborhood. The remaining two of the eight block groups with a higher share of minorities are located at the most western and eastern portions of the City.

The block groups with a higher concentration of low- or moderate-income familes are largely the same block groups as those with higher concentration of minorities. However, the block groups with the third Consolidated Plan SOUTH JORDAN 472 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

and fourth highest concentration of low- and moderate-income familes some of the lowest shares of minority populations. All eight block groups with a higher concentration of minorities also individually have a higher concentration of low- or moderate-income families. The total share of low- or moderate- income families in the nineteen block groups is 17.9%. In 2014, HUD granted a low/mod area exception to the City that allows block groups with a low- or moderate-income population of 24.23% or higher to be eligible for CDBG funded projects, as opposed to 51%. Four block groups are functionally eligible.

("Minority" is defined as individuals who are not white or Hispanic and "higher concentration" is a block group where the share of a specific population exceeds the overall share of that population.)

The block group with the highest concentration of minorities is also the block group where homes have the oldest median year built in the City. The second highest concentration, by block group, of minority population, and the block group with the highest percentage of low/mod households, is the block group with the most multi-family housing units.

What are the characteristics of the market in these areas/neighborhoods?

Approximately half of the block groups with higher concentrations of minorities and low- or moderate- income familes are in areas that may be considered to have higher than average amounts of amenities. Two (Tract 1130.07, Block Groups 1 & 2) of these three are located in the Glenmoor neighborhood. Block group 2 of tract 1130.07 has the lowest percentage (36.4%) in the City of homes built since 1990 (median year built is 1988) and the highest minority population (23.5%). Block group 1 has the lowest median home value of the nineteen block groups in the City and the highest share of minorities. Glenmoor is one of the City's older neighborhoods, with the majority of homes having been built between 30 to 40 years ago. However, it is a planned community with many amenities (trails, open space, parks, golf course). Block group 1 of tract 1152.09 is largely the Daybreak community, with similar amenities to Glenmoor, transit stations, and retail and commercial service areas. Block group 2 of tract 1128.17 is located on the eastern portion of the City, between the Jordan River and the City's east boundary and running from the north boundary to the south boundary. It has the highest concentration of low- or moderate-families (39.23%), the second highest concentration of minorities (20.1%) and the lowest median rent ($1,242) in the City. Three of the City's largest apartment complexes (San Marino, 320 units; Four Seasons at Southtowne, 276 units; & Sterling Village, 300 units) are located in this area. A fourth apartment complex (Jordan Station, 302 units) is currently under construction. However, the area is adjacent to a golf course and the I-15 freeway. The area contains retail and commercial services, office buildings, a commuter train station, and access to the Jordan River trail system.

The other half of the block groups with higher concentrations of minorities and low- or moderate- families are in areas that contain some the City's older neighborhoods and may be considered to lack amenities and improvements equivalent to other areas of the City.

Are there any community assets in these areas/neighborhoods?

Consolidated Plan SOUTH JORDAN 473 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

(see previous section)

Are there other strategic opportunities in any of these areas?

The approval of an exception to the 51% low- and moderate-income area benefit requirement to qualify for CDBG funded projects opens up opportunities in many of these areas to strengthen neighborhoods through neighborhood infrastructure improvements and the addition of amenities. The City will be conducting an audit of eligible areas to determine specific opportunities. Generally, the City anticipates that opportunites will be available for accessibility, street lighting, and park improvements.

Strategic Plan

SP-05 Overview Strategic Plan Overview

The CDBG program was created through the Housing and Community Development Act (HCDA). The primary objective of the HCDA is the development of viable urban communities through the provision of decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanded economic opportunities. The City CDBG program has developed the following city-specific objectives to support the primary objective of the HCDA, address needs in the City, and reflect the community character:

 Support family and individual stability, self-reliance, and prosperity  Enhance housing choice  Strengthen neighborhood value  Improve accessibility and opportunity for all residents

The following goals are intended to guide projects and allocation during the term of the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan:

 Maintain existing housing  Improve and provide adequate senior facilities  Provide senior services  Correct accessibility deficiencies  Provide improvements in deficient neighborhoods  Support essential needs services and programs  Support training and education programs  Increase access to affordable housing

Describe the basis for allocating investments geographically within the state

The City has not identified specifc target areas. However, HUD granted a area benefit exception to the City in 2014. The exception allows projects to qualify for the low- and moderate-income national objective in Census block groups where at least 24.23% of the residents are low- or moderate- income. The City did not previously have any block groups which qualified through the area benefit. An audit of eligible areas will be conducted by the City to determine the potential for projects to meet needs and goals of the Consolidated Plan. The following block groups have been determined to be eligible at the time that the Consolidated Plan was prepared:

 Tract 1126.05 Group 5*  Tract 1128.17 Group 2  Tract 1130.08 Group 4  Tract 1130.10 Group 2  Tract 1130.12 Group 1  Tract 1131.05 Group 2*

Introduction

The City participates in both the CDBG program, as a grantee, and the HOME program, as a member of the Salt Lake HOME Consortium. The 2015 program year marks the City’s fourth year as a CDBG grantee and the first year as a member of the HOME Consortium. The City does not anticipate directly administering HOME funds during the duration of this plan. Due to the limited amount of HOME funds expected to be available to the City and in support of the City’s desire to support regional housing and homelessness efforts, it is anticipated the City will reallocate any available HOME funds to the Consortium for administration. The City does not participate in other HUD programs.

The amount of CDBG funds received by a grantee each year is determined by HUD according to “a formula comprised of several measures of community needs, including the extent of poverty, population, housing overcrowding, age of housing, and population growth lag in relationship to other metropolitan areas.” (www.portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUD?src=/program_offices/comm_planning/communitydevelopment/ programs, 1/24/13) Since becoming a grantee, the City has received the lowest annual allotment of all grantees in a seven state region (Region VII). The City’s annual allocation reflects a relatively small, but rapidly growing, population, and the lack of community concerns, at least at a lower scale, that many other communities face. The City’s modest allocation of CDBG funding requires a simple program and the careful selection of projects. The City has also utilized other funding sources and staff time to leverage CDBG funds. The City strives to address the unique and specific existing concerns in the community in a way that is also preventative of those concerns becoming larger future problems.

The City has identified two areas in which improvement could be achieved in program planning. The City’s public outreach efforts have not generated a significant amount of public input, specifically from

Consolidated Plan SOUTH JORDAN 490 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

residents. The City is seeking more effective outreach methods. Additionally, as a relatively new grantee, many residents, stakeholders, city staff and elected officials are not familiar with the CDBG program. A greater level of awareness and understanding about the CDBG program would contribute to more effectively addressing needs within the community.

The City is constantly striving to most effectively utilize the limited funds received to address needs within the community. In order to adequately fund projects to meet needs, decisions regarding prioties have to be made. The Staff Working Group meets regularly to assess needs and the effectiveness of projects in meeting needs. The Staff Working Group has demonstrated, through funding and amendment recommendations to the City Council, a sensitivity to funding adjustments to meet better serve needs when opportunities are available or identified. The City also intends to seek more effective outreach methods to the public in order to incorporate more community input.

6 Goal Name Support essential services and training programs Goal The City intends to provide or support organizations that provide crisis assistance, essential needs, special needs or career Description training. 7 Goal Name Support training and education programs Goal The City seeks to utilize funding to support programs and services which enhance family and individual social, mental, Description emotional, and financial stability. While many of the public service agencies that will likely be funded to meet other needs also provide educational and training support and the City is involved in non-CDBG related programs, the City has not yet identifed CDBG funded projects specific to address this goal. 8 Goal Name Increase access to affordable housing Goal The City seeks to utilize funding to support programs and services that decrease housing expenses and increase housing Description affordability for low-income families, specfically at lower income levels. While the City is involved in non-CDBG related programs, including the HOME Consortium, the City has not yet identifed CDBG funded projects specific to address this goal. It is expected that down-payment assistance will be available to South Jordan residents through the HOME Consortium, and that approximately three household per year will benefit. Estimate the number of extremely low-income, low-income, and moderate-income families to whom the jurisdiction will provide affordable housing as defined by HOME 91.315(b)(2)

According to the City's Housing Needs Study, conducted in 2014, the City had a 14,104 non-rental housing units and 3,292 rental units, for a total of 17,396 dwelling units. The same study determined that 5 units (rental and non-rental) were available for families with an income less than 30% of AMI, 28 units were available to families with an income of 30% to 50% of AMI, and 5,224 units were available to families with an income of 50% to 80% of AMI. The number of units available in the range of incomes at 50% to 80% AMI was determined to be sufficient for the City's needs, the number of units in the other two income categories was determined to be insufficient to meet the City's needs. CDBG funds are not anticipated to be used to address the need for additional units in these two categories due to the limited amount of funding received. However, the City intends to address these needs through other means, specfically through its involvement with the HOME consortium and the City is also currently formulating plans to utilize RDA housing set-aside funds to address housing needs.

AP-85 Other Actions - 91.420, 91.220(k) Introduction

Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs

Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing

The range and availability of housing types within the City has significantly increased in recent years. A housing study (Housing Needs Study) conducted in 2014 concluded that sufficient housing units are available to families with incomes that are 50% to 80% of the AMI, however, the City lacks sufficient housing for families with incomes less than 50% of AMI. The City recently became a member of the HOME Consortium and is currently formulating plans to use RDA housing set-aside funds to address affordable housing needs. The proposed 2015-2016 HOME Consortium allocation includes an addtional $50,000 set-aside for the Community Development Corporation's down-payment assistance program to be used to serve Sandy City and South Jordan City. It is expected that 10 homes will served between the two cities. CDBG funds during 2015-2016 are being allocated to emergency housing repairs and residential accessibility improvements to address the goal to maintain existing housing.

Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards

Approximately 9% of the City's housing units were built prior to 1978, when lead-based paint was banned. Lead-based paint is not considered a wide-spread concern in the City. For similar reasons, the Salt Lake County Health Department has recently discontinued testing and mitigation programs. The Health Department is now focused on education. It is recommended that city residents in housing units built prior to 1978 become familiar with the dangers of lead-based paint and actions that can be taken to reduce those hazards. Information is available from the Salt Lake County Health Department at: www.slcohealth.org/programs/leadfreekids/index.

Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families

The goals of the Consolidated Plan were created to support the underlying objectives of the City's CDBG program, specifically the objective to support family and individual stability, self-reliance, and prosperity. In order to meet that objective, preferred public services serve essential immediate needs and provide case management and coordination with other agencies to assist families and individuals to achieve long-term stability. The City is seeking ways to improve access from transit stations in the City

Consolidated Plan SOUTH JORDAN 518 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

to housing and employment areas. The City's City Commerce department actively pursues opportunities for job creation.

Actions planned to develop institutional structure

Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies

The Staff Working Group will continue to tour the facilities of funded public service agencies. The CDBG Coordinator has increased the number of on-site monitoring visits and intends to do so more regularly. The CDBG Administrator will continue to serve on the HOME Consortium and coordinate with houisn providers.
