FY 2017-2018 CAPER 2017-2018 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report Community Development Commission/ Housing Authority of the County of Los Angeles MONIQUE KING-VIEHLAND Executive Director PREFACE The Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) is an assessment of the County of Los Angeles (County)’s activity performance funded by the three U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) formula grant programs: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG); HOME Investment Partnership Act (HOME); and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG). The CAPER describes the County’s performance for all HUD Formula Grant Programs with respect to meeting the objectives and goals established in the County’s Five-Year Consolidated Plan and the corresponding Annual Action Plan. Fiscal Year (FY) 2017- 2018 is the fifth year in the Five-Year Consolidated Planning Period (Program Years 2013- 2018) for the County. A draft of the 2017-2018 CAPER was made available for public review and comment during a 15-day public notice period, as mandated by HUD. A printed copy of the CAPER was available at the CDC, located at 700 West Main Street, Alhambra, CA 91801. The Draft was also distributed to 30 public libraries throughout the County. Information included in the Draft CAPER is preliminary and subject to change prior to final submittal to HUD. The Final CAPER is submitted to HUD through its online system, the Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS), by the due date, ninety days after the end of a grantee’s fiscal year. The Draft CAPER is also made available for viewing or download on the CDC’s website: www.lacdc.org during the public notice period, and the Final CAPER is available online shortly after submission to HUD. CR‐05 ‐ Goals and Outcomes Progress the jurisdiction has made in carrying out its strategic plan and its action plan. 91.520(a) This could be an overview that includes major initiatives and highlights that were proposed and executed throughout the program year. The County of Los Angeles (County) strives to maximize and effectively utilize its available funding to implement housing and community development activities meeting each of the ten Priority Need categories identified in its Five‐Year Consolidated Plan (2013‐2018). In 2017‐2018, the County successfuly met 75% or more of its annual goals in nine of the ten quantified Priority Need categories, with six of the ten categories meeting 100% or greater achievement. Accomplishment ratios were adjusted for projects that were either cancelled in Fiscal Year (FY) 2017‐ 2018 or extended into FY 2018‐2019 and beyond. Many construction activities have multi‐year contracts or are extended in order to complete construction. This creates a number of projects that continue over multiple CAPERs. 2017‐2018 PRIORITY NEED ACCOMPLISHMENTS Anti‐Crime: 100% Economic Development: 102% Homelessness: 100% Housing: 100% Infrastructure: 100% Public Facilities: 86% Public Services: 100% Senior Programs: 84% Special Needs/Non‐Homeless: 79% Youth Programs: 58% The County performed well in meeting federal grant program requirements in each of its three formula grant funds. In the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, the County: expended 97.13% of total qualified expenditures to benefit low‐ and moderate‐income persons, in the third year of the three‐year certification period; held planning and administration expenditures to 18.41% of the annual grant plus program income amount; and expended only 8.42% of the sum of the grant plus last fiscal year’s program income for public service activities. The County HOME Investments Partnerships (HOME) Program met is Match Liability, achieving the required match of federal to non‐ federal funds. Twenty‐five percent of the match requirement was met with Single‐Family and Multifamily Mortgage Revenue Bonds, and the remaining 75% was met through other non‐federal funds. Similarly, the County Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Program achieved more than its dollar‐for‐dollar match, providing $4,234,217 in County General Funds for the $1,856,207 in funding awarded through the 43rd Consolidated Plan program year, and also adhered to the 7.5% administrative cap on costs for the grant. Fair housing activities, provided for the County by the Housing Rights Center (HRC) and its subcontracted agencies, achieved goals and strategies outlined in the County’s Housing Strategy and were met through a variety of direct services, outreach and marketing efforts, providing a total of 211,794 client contacts during the program year and serving 2,548 direct clients with general or fair housing inquiries. CAPER 1 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 06/30/2018) Program year 2017‐2018 marks the fifth and final year in the County’s five‐year consolidated planning period (2013‐2018). Aggregated over the five‐year planning period, the County achieved high marks in all of its Priority Need Categories. 2013‐2018 PRIORITY NEED ACCOMPLISHMENTS Anti‐Crime: 92% Economic Development: 140% Homelessness: 181% Housing: 115% Infrastructure: 103% Public Facilities: 7550% Public Services: 276% Senior Programs: 105% Special Needs/Non‐Homeless: 227% Youth Programs: 104% Nine of the ten categories met over 100%, with Anti‐Crime accomplishing 92%. The category of Public Facilities was overinflated from an unplanned tree planting project in FY 2013‐2014, that counted the number of trees as accomplishments rather than structures completed, as the consolidated plan goal was originally based on.
