Also, some funding is available according to individual benefit rather than area benefit. It is,therefore, difficult to provide reasonable projections of the distribution of funds by a target area.The numbers below are strictly estimates based on experience. Geographic Distribution Target Area Percentage of Funds CDBG Eligible Block Groups 100 Table 8-Geographic Distribution Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically The proposed allocation of funds is based on federal funding requirements for each formula-allocated grant. Areas of low to moderate-income concentration and certain areas of high minority concentration are targeted. Areas of low homeownership and deteriorating housing conditions were also considered in the targeting process. Discussion The distribution of funds by target area is projected to be primarily citywide due to use of funds for administrative, non-profit support, and individual benefit-oriented programmatic uses of the funds. The remaining funds are estimated to be spread through smaller CDBG-eligible areas.

Funding for homeless projects and services are sources primarily through that process. Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs The Beaumont/Port Arthur/South East Texas Continuum of Care, the coalition of local homeless service agencies, conducts annual surveys of homeless individuals, including unsheltered persons.These surveys serve to help focus agency activities for the coming year and provide documentation in response to HUD program requirements. Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City of Port Arthur has no plans that would affect homeless persons' emergency shelter or transitional housing needs in the coming year. Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again The City of Port Arthur has no plans to help homeless persons transition to permanent housing and independent living in the coming year.

Discussion: Port Arthur has worked to reduce the effects of public policy on affordable housing development over the past few years. While there are a number of market forces at work that make affordable housing development difficult, as discussed in the Market Analysis, the impact of public policy is not a major factor. Annual Action Plan 51 2021 OMB Control No:2506-0117(exp.09/30/2021) AP-85 Other Actions — 91.220(k) Introduction: The City currently provides a variety of services to the residents of Port Arthur, some funded by CDBG and HOME allocations, with private, State, and City funding bringing additional assets to bear on these problems. Below are some of the actions currently performed by the City or under consideration for the future.

Funding is the major obstacle in providing the services needed to focus on the vast variety of issues that prevent families from breaking out of poverty and from living in the best, most affordable housing possible. Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City will consider providing financial assistance for Tax Credit Projects for affordable housing development to expand multi-family rental development projects and homeownership opportunities when those projects are present for review.Additionally, acquisition, soft costs and site development funds will be used for affordable housing development. Consideration for additional funding will be given upon completion of the pre-development phase.

Actions planned to develop institutional structure • Work with non-profit organizations to address community needs and provide support to federal and non-federal funding initiatives. • Work with private industry to address important issues that hamper housing and community development efforts. • Identify opportunities to create private/public partnerships for project finance and development to leverage federal funds. Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies The City will continue to coordinate planning activities with private housing and social service agencies, including participation in the Beaumont/Port Arthur/South East Texas Continuum of Care meetings, development of the Continuum of Care,and enumeration of point-in-time and homeless surveys.

Discussion: These actions are primarily the continuation of what the City is currently doing in various areas. No major obstacles in the institutional structure have been identified that need to be addressed.The City is also satisfied with its efforts to coordinate with private housing and social agencies. Port Arthur has worked to reduce the effects of public policy on affordable housing development over the past few years. While there are a number of market forces at work that make affordable housing development difficult, as discussed in the Market Analysis,the impact of public policy is not a major factor.

Annual Action Plan 53 2021 OMB Control No:2506-0117(exp.09/30/2021) Program Specific Requirements AP-90 Program Specific Requirements— 91.220(1)(1,2,4) Introduction: The following provides details on program-specific requirements for each of the entitlement programs, Community Development Block Grant, and HOME Investment Partnership. Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG) Reference 24 CFR 91.220(1)(1) Projects planned with all CDBG funds expected to be available during the year are identified in the Projects Table.The following identifies program income that is available for use that is included in projects to be carried out. 1.The total amount of program income that will have been received before the start of the next program year and that has not yet been reprogrammed 0 2.

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. 80.00% HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) Reference 24 CFR 91.220(1)(2) 1.

Many of these organizations receive private donations to sustain their programs, and most apply for funding on the federal, state, and local level. The availability of federal funds would enhance any of the listed programs and would mean that more services, and housing, could be provided. Because of the scarcity of any type of funding,the City has been working with various organizations to try to develop programs that would increase the leveraging capacity of federal funding mechanisms so that more money would be available for other needed endeavors. Better use of the existing resources is a main concern of everyone. 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: The HOME Recapture Provisions are established §92.253(a) (5) (ii) and permits the original homebuyer to sell the property to any willing buyer during the period of affordability.The repayment conditions for the FTHB assistance stated previously outlines the shared market appreciation also referred to as the share of net proceeds.

The Federal funds invested is secured by a Written Loan Agreement and a recorded Second Lien Deed of Trust and a Borrower Agreement Note of which the principal amount of the Note represents funds advanced by City to or for the borrowers benefit to assist them in paying part of the purchase price of the Property or the closing costs on the Property or both. On the same date as the date of the Note, the borrower will have entered into an agreement with City that the borrower will, among other things, continue to use the Property as their principal residence and will use the Property low-income housing as defined in such agreement for a period of 10 years after the date of the Note. If for any reason the borrower default under any of the provisions of the Borrower Agreement,then the City will accelerate the maturity of the Note and recoup all or portion of the HOME assistance to the homebuyers if the housing does not continue to be the principal residence of the family for the duration of the period of affordability in compliance with 24 CFR92.254(a)(5)(ii). The period of affordability is based on the total amount of HOME funds initially invested in the housing. 3.

For Program Year 2021-2022,the city is proposing to make substantial amendments to its submitted plan. The purpose for the substantial amendment is to include$1,000,453 HOME-ARP grant funding received from the US Department of Housing and Urban the purpose of the allocation is to serve households who are at greatest risk of housing instability,including individuals and families experiencing homelessness and/or who are at imminent risk of becoming homeless.Meeting this requirement,HOME- ARP Allocation Plan is the substantial amendment to the adopted Action Plan FY 2021-22. HOME-ARP funds can only be expended on eligible activities: • Provision of Supportive Services(such as housing counseling,homelessness prevention, . childcare,job training, legal services,case management,moving costs,rental applications,and rent assistance) • Acquisition and Development of Non-Congregate Shelters: Purchase and Development of Non- Congregate Shelter(these structures can remain in use as a non-congregate shelter or can be converted to 1)emergency shelter under the Emergency Solutions Grants(ESG)Program; 2) permanent housing under the Continuum of Care(CoC)Program; or 3)affordable housing under the HOME Program) • Tenant-Based Rental Assistance(TBRA) ' • Production or Preservation of Affordable Housing(such as acquisition and rehabilitation) • Non-Profit Operating(5%maximum allocation)(may not exceed the greater of 50 percent of the general operating expenses of the organization for that fiscal year) • Non-Profit Capacity Building(5%maximum allocation)(may not exceed the greater of 50 percent of the general operating expenses of the organization for that fiscal year) • Administration and Planning for the HOME ARP Program(15%maximum allocation) HOME-ARP funds must be used primarily to benefit individuals or families from the following qualifying populations: • Sheltered and unsheltered homeless populations • Those currently housed populations at the risk of homelessness • Those fleeing or attempting to flee domestic violence,dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, or human trafficking • Other families requiring services,housing assistance,or to prevent homelessness • Those at greatest risk of housing instability or in unstable housing situations Below are definitions for terms that are used frequently in relation to HOME-ARP funds.

From one angle,homelessness can be seen as an economic problem- caused by unemployment, foreclosure, or poverty. From another viewpoint, homelessness could appear to be a health issue- as many homeless persons struggle with one or more conditions such as mental illness,physical disability, HIV, or substance abuse. Looking at the problem another way,homelessness emerges as a social problem -with factors such as domestic violence, educational attainment, or race lying at the root. Homelessness is caused by all these issues, sometimes simultaneously.

Since its January 2000 inception, the Coalition has worked to identify gaps in existing services and assist organizations in the 16IPage HOME - ARP Allocation Plan and Annual Action Plan Substantial Amendment- DRAFT development of resources to fill those needs, thereby assuring a full continuum of care for homeless persons. The HUD 2021 Texas Balance of State Housing Inventory Count Report includes data for Jefferson County and Port Arthur. Less than 14% of the 153 total beds are available to serve those experiencing homelessness within Port Arthur city limits. Emergency Shelters, Rapid Rehousing, and Permanent Supportive Housing are available in Jefferson and Orange County. There are five agencies providing services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness. These include emergency shelter, transitional housing,permanent supportive housing, rapid re-housing, and other permanent housing: Family Services of Women& Southeast Texas Children ES Housing Authority of Port Arthur HUD-VASH Neighborhood Homeless to Development Corporation Homes Program The Salvation Army of Emergency Beaumont Shelter The Salvation Army of Beaumont ESG-CV RRH Identify any gaps within the current shelter and housing inventory as well as the service delivery system: The service providers in Port Arthur work closely together to provide a continuum of services in response to needs identified through surveys of homeless persons and general observations of the providers. Providers in Port Arthur are particularly strong in the areas of mental health services, employment training, and life skills training. Gaps exist in emergency shelter capacity. There are not enough beds on a typical night. Another gap is the coordination of service centers through the lack of universal participation of providers in the HMIS system. All homeless providers who participate in federal funding programs are enrolled in the HMIS system Identify the characteristics of housing associated with instability and an increased risk of homelessness if the PJ will include such conditions in its definition of"other populations"as established in the HOME ARP Notice: The number one indicator of households falling into homelessness from a place of housing instability is a previous history of homelessness. Homeless assistance is the last resort for households in extreme poverty with few resources of their own and limited connections to others who could offer temporary, emergency support. Additionally, when other systems of care, like hospitals,behavioral health settings, child welfare, and criminal justice systems, are unable to address the reasons why people cannot stay housed,people have no alternative than turning to the homeless response system. 17IPage HOME -ARP Allocation Plan and Annual Action Plan Substantial Amendment - DRAFT APPENDIX A: HOME-ARP NEEDS ASSESSMENT SURVEY 1.
