Each
year the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides
funding for housing and community development programs to the City of
Roseville, specifically Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and
other federal housing funds. In order to receive these funds, the City
must complete a report every three to five years called the Consolidated
Plan.
The purpose of the Consolidated Plan is to identify the City's housing
and community development needs, priorities, goals, and strategies and
to stipulate how funds will be allocated to housing and community
development activities over the period of the Consolidated Plan. The
City's 2015 Consolidated Plan was adopted by City Council on May 20,
2015; the plan covers the period from July 1, 2015 - June 30, 2020.
The City’s Housing Division was the lead agency in developing the 2015
Consolidated Plan (Plan). The Plan was prepared in accordance with HUD’s
Office of Community and Planning Development (CPD) eCon Planning Suite
(launched in May 2012), including the Consolidated Plan template in IDIS
(Integrated Disbursement and Information System). Most of the data
tables in the Plan are populated with default data from the US Census
Bureau, mainly 2007–2011 Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy
(CHAS) and American Community Survey (ACS) data. Other sources are noted
throughout the Plan, including the addition of more recent data where
practical. The research process involved the analysis of the following
key components: demographic, economic, and housing data; affordable
housing market; special needs populations (homeless and non-homeless);
consultation with public and private agencies; and citizen
participation.
The Plan process also included the development of the first-year 2015
Annual Action Plan, which is the annual plan the City prepares pursuant
to the goals outlined in the Consolidated Plan. As a recipient of
Community Development Block Grant funds, the City is required to submit
to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) an Annual
Action Plan document which outlines the City’s most urgent needs, a
strategy for how the City will meet those needs and an investment plan
identifying how the City will use available government and private
resources to implement its strategy. The Action Plan details the
activities the City will undertake to address the housing and community
development needs and local objectives using CDBG and other housing
funds received during 2015 Program Year (PY).
