SALT LAKE CITY CORPORATION 451 SOUTH STATE STREET, ROOM 404 WWW.SLC.GOV P.O. BOX 145486, SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH 84114-5486 TEL 801.535.6230 FAX 801.535.6005 BUDGET IMPACT: $16,073,221 of program income generated from HUD program funding. Part of these funds have been recognized through previous budget action and the remainder will need to be recognized through a forthcoming budget amendment. Funding allocations and programmatic expenses will not impact the City's General Fund or future annual HUD allocations. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: On an annual basis, the Division of Housing Stability ("Housing Stability") deploys millions of dollars to address the critical needs of residents and neighborhoods. Funding is ultimately provided to a variety of City departments, agencies, and outside organizations to implement projects and programs. Some of these projects and programs generate revenue, known as program income ("PI"). PI generated as a result of activities originally funded through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") Community Development Block Grant ("CDBG") and Home Investment Partnership Program ("HOME") programs retain their federal identity in perpetuity and are subject to all federal requirements. The Administration and Council have been working toward the recognition and allocation of HUD PI that has been received and retained by the City and is available for housing and community development activities. While previous briefings have also considered PI generated from non -HUD sources, this transmittal focuses solely on the unallocated HUD PI, which is subject to federal requirements and needs to be formally recognized through the HUD Consolidated Plan ("Con Plan") framework. To formally recognize these funds, substantial amendments to the City's 2020-2024 Con Plan and 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan ("Substantial Amendments") need to be adopted by the City Council and approved by HUD. A status update is as follows: Complete: • February 7, 2023: The Department of Community and Neighborhoods ("CAN") and Housing Stability briefed the City Council on unallocated HUD PI, and the City Council provided policy direction on the utilization and allocation of these funds. • June 13, 2023: The City Council adopted the Fiscal Year 2024 ("FY 24") budget, which includes the following HUD PI appropriations: o Revenue: The HUD PI balance as of April 30, 2023. o Expenditures: $6,476,014 of PI to the RDA's Housing Development Loan Program ("HDLP") to be administered through a notice of Funding Availability ("NOFA"). • August 15, 2023: CAN and Housing Stability briefed the City Council on the Administration's proposed funding allocations for the HUD PI revenue that is not appropriated to a program, activity, or project in the FY 24 budget. Current: • This transmittal will initiate the process with the City Council to adopt the Substantial Amendments. • Upon submittal of this transmittal to the City Council, Housing Stability will commence the required 30-day minimum public comment period that includes various noticing and outreach requirements. Next Steps: • The City Council holds a public hearing to be scheduled anytime within the public comment period. • After the public hearing, the City Council considers and adopts a resolution approving the Substantial Amendments and corresponding budget allocations — refer to Exhibit 6: Resolution. Prior to adoption, modifications can be made to the resolution to incorporate feedback from the Council or the public. • Once approved by the City Council, Housing Stability will submit the Substantial Amendments to HUD. HUD has 30-days to approve the amendments. • A FY 24 budget amendment will be required for the following: o Revenue True Up: The substantial amendments are based on the HUD PI balance as of June 30, 2023, however the FY 24 revenue appropriations are based on the HUD PI balance as of April 30, 2023. As such, a budget amendment will be required to true up the budget revenues to reflect the June 30 balances. o Funding Expenditures: A budget amendment will be required to appropriate and clarify the expenditures identified through the substantial amendments in the FY 24 budget. Available Funds PI is gross income received by the recipient or a subrecipient directly generated from the use of CDBG or HOME funds. This may include, but is not limited to, proceeds from the disposition or sale of real property purchased or improved with CDBG or HOME funds; income from the use or rental of real property acquired, constructed, or improved with CDBG or HOME funds; and payments of principal and interest on loans made using CDBG or HOME funds. Since the June 2023 transmittal, the unallocated HUD PI has continued to generate new revenue with the following balances as of June 30, 2023, at the close of the Fiscal Year: PROGRAM INCOME SOURCE 6/30/2023 BALANCE CDBG $6,133,510.71 HOME $9,890,743.13 American Dream Downpayment Initiative (ADDI)* $ 48,967.10 TOTAL $16,073,220.94 *Note: ADDI is a discontinued HUD initiative that was provided through the HOME program. As such, the ADDI Program Income is treated as HOME Program Income and used in accordance with HOME regulations. Proposed Allocations The Administration proposes the following funding allocations, considering the various eligible uses and timeliness requirements of the different funding sources: TYPE PROJECT/PROGRAM CDBG HOME/ADDI RDA NOFA $6,939,710.23* DEVELOPMENT 1159 West Temple Book Cliffs $3,000,000.00 Strategic, Opportunity Area, or $5,633,510.71 ACQUISITION CLT Property Acquisition Neighborhood Business $250,000.00 NEIGHBORHOOD Improvement Program NBIP IMPROVEMENTS Westside Sidewalk/Infrastructure $250,000.00 Im rovements TOTAL 1 1 $6,133,510.71 $9,939,710.23 *Note: An RDA NOFA allocation of $6, 476, 014.00 in HOME PI has been formally approved by City Council and budgeted for expenditures as part of the FY24 budget process. The additional $463, 696.23 in proposed funding allocation to the RDA NOFA accounts for additional HOME PI received through June 30, 2023. Additional information on the proposed projects and activities is as follows: 1. DEVELOPMENT RDA NOFA, $6,939,710.23 1159 S West Temple, up to $3, 000, 000.00 • RDA NOFA Funding will be allocated to specific projects via a competitive Notice of Funding Availability ("NOFA") through the RDA's Housing Development Loan Program ("HDLP"). • 1159 S West Temple (Book Cliffs Lodge) Due to the inter -governmental relationship between the City and the Housing Authority of Salt Lake City ("HASLC"), the Administration inquired with HASLC on development projects that, once a funding gap is filled, are shovel -ready and would be on a development schedule that would meet HUD's timeliness requirements. The project, located at 1159 S West Temple and known as Book Cliffs Lodge continues to have a funding gap. Up to $3,000,000.00 is proposed to be combined with the funding already allocated by the RDA to provide construction financing for the project. Funding would be allocated subject to the underwriting and lending standards outlined in the RDA's HDLP policy. The project is adjacent to City -owned property by Smith's Ballpark and will include —55 units ranging from approximately 30% to 60% of the area median income ("AMI"). 2. ACQUISITION Strategic, East Side, and/or CLT Property Acquisition, $5, 633, 510.71 • Due to strict timeliness requirements for CDBG, the acquisition of property is the likeliest way for the City to meet spend down requirements. As such, the Administration recommends allocating the majority of CDBG PI for the acquisition of property, as follows: o A partnership between CAN, RDA, and/or the HASLC to identify and purchase property that is either located in a strategic location or in a high opportunity area for development of affordable housing; or o Single-family homes and/or missing middle typology housing that will be incorporated into to the City's CLT, with the City retaining ownership of the land in perpetuity and homeowners purchasing the housing units. 3. NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENTS Neighborhood Building Improvement Program, $250, 000 Sidewalk/Infrastructure Improvements, $250, 000 • Neighborhood Business Improvement Program ("NBIP") The Council has expressed interest in committing a portion of CDBG PI to the NBIP, aka the facade program. The Administration recommends allocating $250,000 to the NBIP, which would be combined with the $925,000 already allocated through the FY24 HUD funding process. This will bring the FY24 total to $1,175,000, which is almost double that of the previous fiscal year's budget. Housing Stability has already issued a competitive application process and will increase the number of projects awarded funded if the Council appropriates these additional funds. • Sidewalk/Infrastructure Improvements The Council has expressed interest in committing a portion of CDBG PI to sidewalk and/or infrastructure improvements, with a focus on the City's west side. The Administration recommends allocating $250,000 to this initiative, to be combined with other CDBG infrastructure funds that are unexpended and continue to be factored into the CDBG timeliness ratio, including: o $322,000, FY 21-22 bus stop improvements o $92,789, FY 22-23 bus stop improvements o $550,000, FY 22-23 Ballpark TRAX pedestrian crossing PROPOSED SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENTS: Due to the City's unallocated HUD PI funding, which has not previously been formally allocated by Council action to projects and recognized in our five-year Consolidated Plan or any subsequent one-year Annual Action Plans to HUD, Substantial Amendments are required for both the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, and the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan.

W ES-05 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 24 CFR91.2oo(c), 91.220(b) 1. INTRODUCTION Salt Lake City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan is the product of a collaborative process to identify housing and community development needs and to establish goals, priorities, and strategies to address those needs. This five-year plan provides a framework for maximizing and leveraging the city's block grant allocations to build healthy and sustainable communities that better focus funding from the U.S. Department of Housingand Urban Development (HUD) formula block grant programs. The entitlement grant programs guided by the Consolidated Plan are as follows: • Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) The CDBG program's primary objective is to promote the development of viable urban communities by providing decent housing, suitable living environments, and expanded economic activities to persons of low- and moderate -income. • Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) The ESG program's primary objective is to assist individuals and families regain housing stability after experiencing a housing or homelessness crisis. • HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) The HOME program's primary objective is to create affordable housing opportunities for low-income households. • Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) The HOPWA program's primary objective is to provide housing assistance and related supportive services to persons living with HIV/AIDS and their families. Similar to cities across the country, Salt Lake City is faced with housing prices that are rising more rapidly than wages, resulting in a lack of affordable housing. This Consolidated Plan outlines a comprehensive set of policies that respond to the City's current challenges by utilizing new and collaborative strategies. Affordable and safe housing serves as the foundation for individuals to move out of poverty and to avoid homelessness. However, it is increasingly recognized that housing must be connected to opportunities for education, transit, recreation, economic development, healthcare, and services. Instead of addressing these needs separately, Salt Lake City takes a comprehensive and geographic approach to community development by integrating these various aspects into its Consolidated Plan. The 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan encourages investment in neighborhoods with concentrated poverty and supports at -risk populations by promoting goals that increase accessto housing, transportation, economic development, and critical services. By building upon the growth and successes realized in the previous Consolidated Plan, Salt Lake City is continuing to work toward closing the gap in a numberof socioeconomic indicators, such as improving housing affordability, job training, access to transportation for low-income households, homeless prevention services, and medical/dental/behavioral health services for at -risk populations. In addition to expanding opportunity for low-income households living in concentrated areas of poverty, Salt Lake Citywill continueto support essential housing and supportive services for the City's mostvulnerable populations, with focus on the chronically homeless, homeless families, disabled persons, victims of domestic violence, persons living with HIV/AIDS, and low-income elderly persons. Process & Overview The 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan is organized into four primary sections, as follows: The Process The Process section of the Plan outlines the development of the Plan, including citizen participation efforts and stakeholder involvement. II. Needs Assessment (NA) The Needs Assessment section provides an analysis of housing, homeless and community development needs, with focus on the needs of low-income households, racial and ethnic minorities, homeless persons, and non -homeless special needs populations. III. Housing Market Analysis (MA) The Housing Market Analysis section provides information and data on Salt Lake City's housing market, including an evaluation of local resources. The housing market analysis supplements information supplied by the needs assessment and establishes a framework for five-year goals and priorities to be developed. IV. Five -Year Strategic Plan (SP) Once community needs, market conditions, and resources are identified, program goals, specific strategies, and benchmarks for measuring progress are set forth in the Strategic Plan section of the Consolidated Plan. Efforts are prioritized to direct the allocation of federal funding to maximize impact within the community. Throughoutthis Plan period, Salt Lake City will look to address strategies and funding resources that help address community responsesto emergency need. This may include preparing for, responding to, and recovery from community wide emergencies. These emergencies would likely be identified through a national, state or local declaration of a state of emergency. Where appropriate, Salt Lake Citywill maximizeall resources to address such instances. The 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan planning process will concludewith the developmentof the City's First -Year Action Plan. The First -Year Action Plan will outline the activities and funding priorities for the first year of the Consolidated Plan, covering July 1, 2020 —June 30, 2021. 2.

PR- 10 CONSULTATION- 91.100, 91.200(B), 91.215(1) INTRODUCTION: The City conducted robust outreach with representatives of low-income neighborhoods, housing and social services providers, homeless shelter and homeless services providers, faith -based organizations, community stakeholders, City departments, and many others. In total, these comprehensive outreach efforts engaged over 4,000 stakeholders during a one-year period. The citizen participation process is described in greater detail in 'PR-15 Citizen Participation.' 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(1)). 11 The City led a proactive, community -based process to solicit public and stakeholder input forth e development of the Consolidated Plan goals, strategies, and priorities. The City created a Stakeholder Advisory Committee that met three times during the planning process. In addition, the City worked directlywith service providers and other government agencies to gather data used in the technical analysis for the Consolidated Plan. 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: Salt Lake City representatives actively participated in the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness (SLVCEH), the entity responsible for oversight of the Continuum of Care (CoC). SLVCEH's primary goal is to end homelessness in Salt Lake Valley through a system -wide commitment of resources, services, data collection, analysis and coordination among all stakeholders. The Coalition gathers community consensus to create and fulfill established outcomes. Using these goals, the Coalition partners with key stakeholders to fill the needs of the Salt Lake County Valley community. City representatives served on the SLVCEH Steering Committeeand actively participated in meetings and efforts. Describe consultation with the Continuum 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: Working closely with the other two CoCs in the state- Mountainlands and Balance of State, as well as other city, state, and county representatives, City representatives provided direction and support for how funding SLVCEH'spriorities are considered in Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) allocations. Utilizing data sources like the annual 'Point -in -Time Count' and Utah Homeless Management Information System (UHMIS) outputs, City representatives worked with other SLVCEH members to assess progress on shared metrics such as an individual's average length of homelessness, likelihood to return to homelessness, and the percentage of exits from emergency shelter, transitional housing, and rapid rehousing projects to permanent housing. The City has agreed to use common measures with other SLVCEH members to grade service providers. City representatives also actively participated in meetings regarding the funding, policies and procedures for the administration of the UHMIS. UHMIS helps homeless providers coordinate care, manage operations, and better serve clients by tracking client service needs over time. All ESG-funded entities participate in UHMIS. City representatives helped to develop consistent data standards and create a HMIS training manual. The manual provides guidance on HMIS data elements for CoCs, HMIS Lead Agencies, HMIS System Administrators, and users. City representatives helped to disseminate information regarding the accompanying HMIS Data Dictionary to define data elements and requirements for HMIS compliancefor HMISVendors and System Administrators.

DESCRIBE COORDINATION AND COOPERATION WITH OTHER PUBLIC ENTITIES, INCLUDING THE STATE AND ANY ADJACENT UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT, IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CONSOLIDATED PLAN: (91.215(1)) The City coordinated and cooperated with other public entities, including the State of Utah, Salt Lake County, and neighboring cities on the implementation of the Consolidated Plan. These coordination efforts included City representatives serving on the Commission on Housing Affordability, the Utah Lt. Governor's Affordable Housing Taskforce, the SLVCEH Steering Committee, and other State agencies. In addition, the Cityworked closelywith Salt Lake County's Housing and Community Development Division to foster regional collaboration for implementation. PR- 15 CITIZEN PARTICIPATION SUMMARIZE CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PROCESS AND HOW IT IMPACTED GOAL SETTING. The City seeks to develop and enhance livable, healthy, and sustainable neighborhoods through robust planning and actions that reflect the needs and values of the local community.The City has stayed true to its values of inclusiveness and innovation by embracing opportunities to provide equitable services, offer funding, and create housing opportunities that improve lives for individuals and families in underserved and under- resourced communities. 25 The City recognizes that citizen participation is critical forth e development of a Consolidated Plan that reflects the needs of affected persons and residents. In accordance with 24 CFR 91.105, the City solicited robust citizen participation over the course of an entire year. Between May 2019 and May 2020, over 4,000 residents, stakeholders, agency partners, and City officials participated through proactive, community -based outreach, facilitated stakeholder engagement, and online surveys. The City involved affected persons and residents through stakeholder consultation, a community survey, community events, public meetings, public hearings, public comment periods, and one-on-one consultations. Thefollowing provides a synopsis of these efforts. CONSOLIDATED PLAN SURVEY The City created a survey to solicit feedback from residents regarding their priorities for the provision of housing, economic development, and public services in the most underserved and under-resourced areas of the community. The survey and all accompanying collateral material was translated into Spanish, with additional language translation services available upon request. The survey was posted on the City website and social media platforms, third -party digital applications like Nextdoor and was distributed to thousands of residents through the City's email listserv. In addition, digital flyers with Quick Response (QR) codes were created and distributed to stakeholder advisory and interdepartmental working group members. Members of these groups were asked to distribute the flyerto their respective constituencies. FIGURE PR-15.1 FLYER - ENGLISH 26 Help Us Create the Plan!

Salt Lake City residents consistently report a high quality of life over time. 2. On average, residents rank investing in affordable housing programs as their highest priority city initiative. 3. 95% of respondents rank improving air quality as their highest environmental priority. 4. A majority of respondents believe Salt Lake City has job opportunities for them, but they also believe that the City can do more to attract businesses. A plurality of residents would prefer to receive nformation regarding SLC via email. Fewer than a quarter report following the City's social media accounts. There is currently a general lack of knowledge regarding the inland Port Project. Residents who follow the city's social media accounts and use the city website report greater understanding of what the project is. Favorability of the port is heavily divided with an average scare of 42 on a scale of 0-100. Currently, greater understanding of the port is associated with less favorable opinions of it. 111►`IM'"SKIlL943UT MAN 3L REGIONAL COLLABORATION The City collaborated closely with Salt Lake County as the two entities worked in tandem on their respective Consolidated Plans. City staff consistently attended County meetings, and viceversa. In addition, the two entities worked together on the question wording and format for their respective surveys to ensure an "apples - to -apples" comparison of survey results. This approach allowed the Cityto consider both qualitative stakeholder feedback and quantitative survey results within a broader, regional context. In total, 222 Salt Lake City residents took the Salt Lake County survey. STAKEHOLDER ADVISORY COMMITTEE The City assembled a Stakeholder Advisory Committee comprised of nonprofit providers and agency partners. The Committee met three times in 2019 on July 30, September 24, and December 11. These meetings were strategically scheduled at critical milestones to maximizethe impact stakeholder feedback would have in the identification of Consolidated Plan goals, objectives, and priorities. On average, approximately40 stakeholders attended the meetings. FIGURE PR-15.7 STAKEHOLDER MEETING 31 Initial Meeting- July 30, 2019 To maintain consistency with the resident survey, the City asked the same survey questions to the stakeholder advisory committee members via real-time, interactive pol I ing software. Stakeholders ranked housing, homelessness, and mental health services as their top three unmet, unfunded/underfunded needs. They indicated street improvements,job training, and the construction of more affordable housing units should be top priorities for City investment. Stakeholders identified Glendale, Fairpark, Ballpark, and Poplar Grove as the areas within the citywith the most unmet needs for under -served individuals and families.

Stakeholders indicated that their first and second priorities were housing and transportation respectively. They outlined a number of suggested fu nding strategies that the City, in partnership with nonprofit service providers, could consideremploying. These strategies include, but are not limited to: • Provide'aging in place' programs • Offer affordable housing voucher programs • Provide client centered community -based case management • Eliminate housing barriers • Integrate transportation and land use considerations to facilitate affordable housing along transit corridors • Improve regional collaboration with public and private -sector partners to improve efficiencies in the allocation of resources and to reduce redundancies • Leverage innovative technologies to improve access to information regarding affordable housing demand and supply • Offer free fare or reduced transit options • Expand transit service in underserved communities • Subsidize rideshare options FIGURE PR-15.9 33 Priority #1 for Unfunded, Unmet Need infrastructure assistance health transportation affordable-housi ng affo rd a b le_0 mentalhealth OUS i n o o homeless dpaSrental mental senior/housing housing stability •�, homeimprovement FIGURE PR-15.10 Priority #2 for Unfunded, Unmet Need transportation-afforability case -management sustain housingfree v mental -health care transportation service h mental — wage ea lth � promote affordable mentalhealth livable Q- developer-gap-financing Third Meeting- December 11, 2019 34 To further refine goals based on previous stakeholder feedback, the City held a third and final stakeholder advisory committee meeting in December. The meeting was held in conjunction with the City's Interdepartmental Technical Advisory Group (ITAG) membersto ensure collaboration between City departments and nonprofit service providers. The meeting centered around the following five objectives: • Homeless Services • Housing Services • Transportation • Economic Development • Behavioral Health: Mental Health & Substance Abuse Stakeholders and City staff indicated that client centered community -based case management, treatment services for mental health and substance abuse, as well as the provision of housing, transit passes, and job training to income -eligible residents were their top priorities to meet these five objectives.

Similar to the approach taken with the Stakeholder Advisory Committee, the City met with this internal group three times during the course of the Consolidated Plan development process. Meetings occurred on July 29, September 23, and December 11, 2019. 37 Initial Meeting- July 29, 2019 Similar to the approach taken with the Stakeholder Advisory Committee, the City surveyed ITAG members via real-time, interactive polling using the same questions as the resident survey to ensure consistency and comparefeedback "apples -to -apples." ITAG members ranked housing and transportation as top priorities and expressed concern that there was insufficient housing to meet the needs of a growing population, particularly for low-income individuals and families, seniors, and persons with disabilities. While feedback differed somewhat from the resident survey results, ITAG members generally expressed similarconcernsas residents. ITAG members were also asked a series of questions regarding their most unfunded/underfunded, unmet needs. Through an interactive "sticky -note" exercise, they wrote their answers on notes and posted them on a wall in the room. A discussion regarding the results of the feedbackthen ensued and the notes were categorized based on key themes.

The objective of a combined meeting was to ensure collaboration between City departments and nonprofit service providers. The meeting centered around the following five goals: • Homeless Services • Housing Services • Transportation • Economic Development • Behavioral Health: Mental Health & Substance Abuse Stakeholders and City staff indicated that client centered community -based case management, treatment services for mental health and substance abuse, as well as the provision of housing, transit passes, andjob training to income -eligible residents were their top priorities to meet these fivegoals. COMMUNITY EVENTS The City led a robust, grassroots citizen participation effort between May 2019 and November 2019. Staff attended community events such as the Rose Park Festival, the Sorenson CommUNITY Fair, Partners in the Park, Groove in the Grove, the Monster Block Party, and many others. In keeping with recommendations outli ned in the SLC Citizen Engagement Guide, the City engaged directly with the public through existing forumswhere opportunities existed to reach hundreds of people at a time. City staff managed information booths at dozens of events and solicited input from residents and stakeholders through interactive materials such as "sticker dots" that could be placed on poster boards to indicate priorities for City services and to identify neighborhoods with the most unmet, unfunded/underfunded needs. The efforts were hugely successful, with over 1,322 people participating.

In these public meetings, staff presented information regarding the following: challenges of rising housing and transportation costs; housing and stability needs of an aging population; the homelessness challenges our community faces; and discussed the need to address behavioral health concerns which include both mental health and substance abuse. Staff provided a high-level explanation regarding the Consolidated Plan funding programs, the process and timelinefor developing the Plan, and eligible activities. Staff provided an interim report regarding citizen participation efforts and through conversation responded to questions regarding the outcomes of the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan and the evolution of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. 43 PUBLIC HEARINGS On October 24, 2019, the City conducted a General Needs Hearing to gather public comments on housing and community development needs as they relate to low- and moderate -income residents. One resident attended the hearing and two residents submitted commentsvia email. Comments were accepted from October21 - November 1, 2019 and identified needs associated with streets, police, community gardens, and tennis courts. To ensure that as many residents as possible are able to participate in public hearings, subsequent public hearings were held to seek feedback on the Consolidated Plan and the Annual Action Plan (AAP). These City Council Public Hearingswere held on March 24, April 7, and April 21, 2020. Approximately 20 residents attended the public hearings and submitted electronic and/or provide direct feedback to the Council Members via WebEx Teleconference. All comments were accepted and considered in the final adoption of the plan. Notices of all public hearings were communicated within 14 calendardays of the hearing and posted on Utah's Public Notice website. PUBLIC COMMENT PERIODS In addition to the 30-day public comment period required by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the City requires a 45-day public comment period on all master plan documents, including the Consolidated Plan. Both the HUD -required public comment period and the City -required public comment periods occurred simultaneously from February 7, 2020 through March 22, 2020. The City initiated the public comment period by contacting all impacted Registered Community Organizations. The proposed Consolidated Plan was published on the City'swebsite and the Utah Public Notice website, and printed copies were made available in the City Main Library and City Hall.

NEEDS ASSESSMENT The Needs Assessment of the Consolidated Plan, in conjunction with information gathered through consultations and the citizen participation process, provides a clear picture of Salt Lake City's needs related to affordable housing, special needs housing, community development, and homelessness. From the Needs Assessment, the City identifies those needs with the highest priority to form the basis for the Strategic Plan and the programs and projects to be administered. 47 NA-05 OVERVIEW Salt Lake City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan is intended to identify the most critical, unfunded gaps in community needs within the City, whilecoordinating with the larger regional needs of the entire Salt Lake Valley. The purpose of this Needs Assessment (NA) is to identify and evaluate needs, along with funding resources, and align those needs with the input received through the public participation process. Goals and strategies are then developed to target priority geographic locations and needed services in those areas, as well as citywide. Numerous news articles over the past year have spotlighted what is termed an "affordable housing crisis" in Utah. Due to public concern over housing issues, the Governor commissioned the Utah Department of Workforce Services to compile statewide Affordable Housing Report in 2018 to identify causes and address issues. That report concludes: Significantpopulation growth from naturalincrease and economic development continue to drive Utah's demand for housing. Production factors such as the high value of land, higher material costs, and a shortage of construction laborsignificantly contribute to delays in developing an adequate supplyof affordable housing. Unless Utah invests in a more pre-emptive approach to housing policy and plans HE more effectively for its future needs, its housing shortage will only increase, and the gap in housing affordability will continue to widen. An effort has been made throughout to connect people with resources to expand opportunities for decent housing, economic development, and vibrant communities. The Needs Assessment clearly establishes that housing and community development needs have increased while funding to address those needs has diminished. As demonstrated in Figure NA-05.1, Salt Lake City's annual CDBG award has decreased by $1.5 million over the past 16 years. This represents a 30% decrease in funding to address the critical housing and community development needs within the City. FIGURE NA-05.1 SALT LAKE CITY 5 ANNUAL CDBG AWARD, 2003 - 2019 $5,000,000 $4,500,000 $4,000,000 $3,500,000 $3,000,000 $2,500,000 2003 2005 2007 2009 2011 2013 2015 2017 2019 Source: HUD Awards and Allocations, HUD Exchange A summary of the key data identified in this study, leading to the strategies developed, is summarized below. In short, homeless services ranked high in the data researched, as well as in the surveys conducted as part of the public participation process. Affordable housing needs also scored high with both the public and in the evaluation of the data. Within these two overarching concerns, critical needs were also identified for assistance with transportation accessibility and costs (thereby reducing cost burdens on low-income families and special populations), economic development opportunities (such asjob training) to increase self-sufficiency, and substantial improvements in the services offered to those with behavioral health concerns. Residents need affordable housing in locations that are near public transportation, quality education, healthcare, and other service providers. Those with the ability to work need services to increase overall self- sufficiency. Significant findings are as follows: Homeless • The State of Utah Annual Report on Homelessness 2019 reported that there were 9,367 total homeless persons between October 1, 2017 and September 30, 2018. On average, these individuals spent 70 nights homeless in that same time period. 49 According to the 2019 Salt Lake County Point-in-TimeCount, which is an annual count of all homeless peoples in the county on a single night, there were 1,844 people experiencing homelessness in the County on the night of the count in January 2019.' Of those experiencing homelessness, 73.2% were White, non -Hispanic, 11%were Black or African American, 5.3%were American Indian or Alaska Natives, 3.5% were Pacific Islander, and 2% were Asian. There were also 21.3% who were Hispanic. There are 193 homeless individualswho are unsheltered. • According to the State of Utah's 2019 Strategic Plan on Homelessness, which quotes from the 2018 Point -in -Time Count (PIT), one in three individuals experiencing homelessness in Utah is severely mentally ill, and one in four have a substance use disorder. Specific service gaps for the homelesswere identified through stakeholder meetings as follows: o Affordable housing, permanent supportive housing, and emergency beds o Mental health services and substance use disorder treatment o Case management o Prevention, diversion and outreach services o Data systemsthat capture more of the full story o Available transportation Affordable Housing • Median incomes in Salt Lake City have increased by 52.6% between 2000 and 2018, representing one of the fastest income growth rates in the nation. However, median home values have increased by 89.8% over the same time period and contract rents have increased by 81.8%, thereby increasing the gap between wages and housing costs. 39.5% of Salt Lake City renter households and 19.7% of homeowner households are cost -burdened, spending over 30% of their monthly income on housing costs. Over 18.9% of renter households spend over 50% of their monthly income on housing.z Families who are cost -burdened have limited resources for food, childcare, healthcare, transportation, education, and other basic needs. Despite the community wide efforts to increase housing availability and reduce housing costs, 29.9% households are cost -burdened. • The Housing Authority of Salt Lake City currently administers Housing Choice vouchers for3,000 households and has 7,053 total households on all of its waiting lists. Countywidethere are 15,981 households on the Housing Connectwaiting list. A family on the waiting list can expect to wait 6 years before receiving a Housing Choice voucher.3A large percentage of those on the waiting list are elderly or have a disability. • Rental vacancy rates are at historic lows, further limiting the available stock of housing and pushing prices upwards. • Concernswere identified regarding the "gentrification" of neighborhoods and the need to put anti - displacement strategies in place, preserving existing affordable housing stock. Demographics 1 2019 Salt Lake County Point -in -Time report Z U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, 2012-2016 CHAS 3 Housing Authority of Salt Lake City, Housing Connect 50 • The demographic makeup of Salt Lake City has changed substantially since 2000. While the White, non -Hispanic population has remained relatively flat since 2000, minority groups have increased by over 14,000. White, non -Hispanic has declined from 71% of the population in 2000 to 65% in 2018. • Over the past 5 years, an average of 450 refugees have settled in Salt Lake City annually. 16.4 % of Salt City residents are foreign -born creating a need for services for individuals who do not speak English. • 12% of the City's population is over 65 years old. Residents this age are often living on limited income and can often have more difficulty finding maintaining theirhomes. This can often lead to the elderly population moving into care facilities or assisted living communities. If care facilities are cheaper outside of the Citythen elderly residents mayend up leaving to other cities in search of lower living costs. • There are 20,504 people in Salt Lake Citywith a disability. 37% of those reporting one or more disabilities are over 65 years old and 21% are over 75 years old. The most common disabilityfor those over the age of 75 is ambulatory difficulty, which is defined as having serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs, followed by hearing and independent difficulty. • About 21% of the City's population is under the age of 18. The largest age group is under 5 years old with over 31% of the City's children reportedly falling in that range. Salt Lake City has a child dependency ratio' of 30.0. • 14.7% of Salt Lake City's children (under 18 years) S live below the poverty level as defined by the poverty thresholds determined by the U.S. Government using the Consumer Price Index. The 2019 Utah Intergenerational Welfare Reform Commission Annual Report reaffirmsthat children growing up in poverty experience challengesto healthy development both in the short and long term, demonstrating impairments in cognitive, behavioral, and social development. The younger the child is when his or her family is impoverished the greater the likelihood for poor outcomes .6 55.8% of Salt Lake City School District students qualifyto receive free school lunch.' Families qualifyfor free lunch if they earn 130% or below the federal poverty level, about $33,500 or less per year for a family of four. Many of these households are considered food insecure. The 2019 Utah Intergenerational Welfare Reform Commission Annual Report indicatesthatthere are 135,940 children experiencing food insecurity in Utah and in past reports has stated that these children are ill more frequently, struggle academically, are less likely to graduate from high school and enroll in college; and less likely to earn enough incometo feed their familieswhen they are adults. • In 2017 there were 152,479 children in Utah under age 6 who needed care, but there were only 41,144 slots available in childcare programs.8The main reasons families are not able to get adequate childcare is cost (31%) and "lack of open slots" (27%).9 ' A measure derived by dividing the population under 18 years by the 18 to 64 years population and multiplying by 100 5 U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2014-2018 5-Year Estimates 6 Utah State Department of Workforce Services, Utah Intergenerational Welfare Reform Commission Annual Report, 2019 ' Salt Lake City School District, Fall Low Income Report, 2017 8 ChildCare Aware of America. 2017 State Child Care Facts in the State of: Utah.

The Rose Park and Glendale areas also report higher ratios of 33.3 and 30.4 respectively. Of the 15 neighborhoods in Utah experiencing the highest age -adjusted drug deaths, Salt Lake City has three of them.10 • A recent study concluded that 1 in 5 Utah adults experience poor mental health and that over half of the adults with mental illness did not receive mental health treatment or counseling. • Another study concluded that Utah ranked 481h in a state -by -state ranking indicating that Utah is amongstthe worst states in the nation when handling mental illnesses based on 15 measures used to create the rankings. The ranking indicates higher prevalence of m ental illness and lower rates of access to care." This is an improvementfrom 2018, when Utah ranked 511t Economic and Social Service Needs • 15.8% of Salt Lake City's adults (18 years and over) live below the poverty level. 12 A recent report indicated that 39,487 adults experiencing intergenerational poverty are employed but unable to meet the needs of their families.13 Families experiencing intergenerational poverty need to be connected to resources that assist them with employment and job training.14 Job training needs were identified as part of the stakeholder meetings and are a critical component of increasing self-sufficiency for individuals. The United States Department of Agriculture defines food insecure families as those householdsthat, at times during the year, are uncertain of having, or unable to acquire, enough food to meet the needs of all their members because they have insufficient money or other resources for food. Based on information provided by Utahns Against Hunger, August 2018, 12.5% of households struggle to buy enough food for themselves and their households. According to Feeding America, Map the Meal Gap 2018, 12.2% of households in Salt Lake County are food insecure, with 15.4% of children food insecure in the County. The 2018 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year Estimate performed by the United States Census Bureau reported that there were 9,249 households in Salt Lake Citythat reported no internet access. This represents almost 12% of the City's households. Internet access has been shown to increase student performance for students and to improve the placement rates for unemployed persons seeking employment. The Salt Lake City Redevelopment Agency has established 12 project areas, 9 of which are currently collecting tax increment. These project areas have been established for a variety of reasons, including the elimination of blight, development of affordable housing, economic development opportunities, and public works improvements. Geographically, these project areas cover a large portion of the 10Utah Department of Health, Public Health Indicator Based Information System: Poisoning: Drug Deaths by Utah Small Area, 2014- 2018, https://ibis.health.utah.gov/ibisph-view/indicator/complete profile/PoiDth.html 11 Mental Health America, Ranking States, https://www.mhanational.org/issues/ranking-states 12 U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2014-2018, 5-Year Estimates 13 International Welfare Reform Commission, Utah's Eighth Annual Report on Intergenerational Poverty, Welfare Dependencyand the Use of PublicAssistonce, 2079 14 Utah State Department of Workforce Services, Utah Intergenerational Reform Commission Annual Report 2019 52 lowest -income areas of the City. A sign ificantamount of tax increment is generated by these project areas, reaching nearly $34 million in 2018, afford ingthe opportunity to leverage HUD funding with tax increment in the future. Public Improvements • Salt Lake City will utilize an $87 million General Obligation (GO) Bond to Iimitthe cost to City residents while still addressing street reconstruction. Using a GO Bond will allow the City to utilize its AAA bond rating (highest available) to provide road reconstruction in a more affordable and responsible way. These fundswiII only be used for street reconstruction and not street maintenance, which will be funded by sales tax dollars. Salt Lake City increased its sales tax by.5% in 2018. This sales tax increase, also known as Funding Our Future, will support several critical need areas within the City, including Street maintenance. In addition, Salt Lake City Transportation received a .25% County Sales Tax funding stream which will enable Transportation Division to address some of the critical infrastructure and connectivity needs within the city. • It's estimated that the annual household transportation cost within the City is $12,524 or about 20% of household income.15The City may consider increasing the quality of commuting by enhancing bus stops and light rail stations and trains to encourage use of public transportation. This would result in household savings in transportation costs and cleaner air within the City. NA-10 HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT- 91.205(a, b, c) SUMMARY OF HOUSING NEEDS Affordable housing needs in Salt Lake City are significant and have been increasing over the past several years. A primary reason is that construction costs have been increasing at a far greater rate than wages and thereby placing a greater cost -burden on households. An extremely low vacancy rate of 3.8% in rentals is further exacerbating this problem. The problem is especially severe for those households making less than 50% of the Area Median Income(AMI). A summaryof housing needs and conditions is as follows: Between 2000 and 2018, the costof housing significantly increased for both renters and homeowners. Incomesfor both renters and homeowners have increased, but at substantially lower rates as shown in Figure NA-10.1. o The median contract rent increased by 81.8%, but renter incomes only increased by 48.7%; in 2018 the median household income for renter -occupied units was $36,997. o Homevalues increased by 89.8%, but homeowner incomes only increased by59.4%. In 2018, the median household incomefor owner -occupied units was $83,750.11 FIGURE NA-10.1 HOUSING COST INCREASES VS. INCOME INCREASES SINCE 2000 15 Center for Neighborhood Technology, Housing + Transportation Index, https://htaindex.cnt.org/ 16 U.S. Census Bureau, 2014-2018 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates 53 100% 90% W/o 70% 60% 50% 400% 30% 20% 10% 0% 2000 2018 Median Contract Rent Renter Incomes Home Values - — - Homeowner Incomes • The Affordability Index, which is a calculation of the median homevalue divided by the median household income, has increased from 4.2 in 2000 to 5.1 in 2018. This is yet another indication that income increases have not kept pace with the increasing horn evalues. • The homeownership rate decreased from 56.9% in 2000 to 48.4% in 2018. In 2000, rental units comprised 48.8% of occupied housing units. In 2018, that percentage increased to 51.6%." Therefore, the increasing numberof rental units could partially accountforthe decreasing rate of homeownership. With increasing housing costs, residents may be hesitant to buy homes and are opting to rent despite increasing rental costs. • Many households in Salt Lake City struggle to make their monthly payments and to find affordable rental housing. Of the 39,000 renter households within Salt Lake City, 39.5% are cost -burdened meaning there are about 15,500 renter households who experience difficulty paying their monthly rent. There are also approximately 7, 100 homeowners who are cost -burdened and have difficulty meeting their mortgage obligations. • Due to the shortage of units affordable to extremely low-income households (<30% AMI), residents who fall into this category are usually forced to rent housing they cannot afford. Very low-income (<50% AMI) householdswith high housing costs lack resources for basic essentials — most critically food and healthcare. Some residents who fall into this category are forced to live in substandard, unhealthy, unsafe, or overcrowded housing. In somecases, the lack of affordable housing can lead to homelessness for some residents. Since 2000, Salt Lake City has continued to see population growth with roughly 13,958 new residents and approximately9,253 new households. That coupled with high housing costs has reduced the supply of units and increased costs.

It also shows those same demographicsfrom the most recent American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates 2014-2018. The percentage of change between 2000 and 2018 has been calculated and included in the table.

Median income has grown significantly. More growth has occurred between 2010 and 2018 (9,261 persons total or an average of 1,158 persons per year). However, when considering recent population estimates, it is not unreasonable to assume that the population within the City has surpassed 200,000 since the 2018 ACS.18Interestingly, the White, non -Hispanic category has seen a net decrease of373 people since 2000, while minority groups have increased by 14,331 persons. Figure NA-10.2 shows how this growth has changed the population composition within Salt Lake City since 2000. In 2000, minorities made upjust over 29% of the population. That number increased to 34.6% in 2018.

This concentration of young-adults/adults differs from the common demographic makeup of the rest of Salt Lake Countywhere this age range is not as highly represented. The 20-29 age range is particularly concentrated in Salt Lake City where the 20-24 and 25-29 age ranges make up over 20% of the residents. As shown in Figure NA-10.4, the County reports that young adults fitting those same age ranges accountfor 15.4% of the population. This difference is likely due to the university student population concentrated in Salt Lake City. 18 U.S. Census Bureau, Population Division, Annual Estimatesof the Residential Population July 1, 2078 55 FIGURE NA-10.3 SALT LAKE CITY AGE STRUCTURE 85 years and over 80 to 84 years ❑ %Male 75 to 79 years 70 to 74 years ■ % Female 65 to 69 years 60 to 64 years 55 to 59 years 50 to 54 years 45 to 49 years 40 to 44 years 35 to 39 years 30 to 34 years 25 to 29 years 20 to 24 years JL 15 to 19 years 10 to 14 years 5to9years Under 5 Years 15% 10% 5% 5% 10% 15% Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 2014-2018 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates FIGURE NA-10.4 SALT LAKE COUNTY AGE STRUCTURE 56 85 years and over 80 to 84 years 75 to 79 years 70 to 74 years 65 to 69 years 60 to 64 years 55 to 59 years 50 to 54 years 45 to 49 years 40 to 44 years 35 to 39 years 30 to 34 years 25 to 29 years 20 to 24 years 15 to 19 years 10 to 14 years 5to9years Under 5 years 15% 10% 5% 5% 10% 15% Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 2014-2018 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates NUMBER OF HOUSEHOLDS Table NA-10.2 shows the numberand types of households by HUD -Adjusted Median Family Income(HAMFI).

In many cases, these students may have little income, and be living in poverty, while they are enrolled in classes. This can inflate the number of single households living in poverty and facing housing challenges. However, this is a temporary situation for most students as they generally have the ability to grow their incomes after graduation. Of the 78,229 total households (familyand nonfamily) in the City, 27,838 were reported as being nonfamilyand living alone. According to these numbers, 35.6% of households in Salt Lake City live alone. This is higherthan the national average of 34.2% 19 A portion of the 27,838 single -persons households represent young professionals, students, and other individuals that are not in need of housing assistance. The at -risk single person households in need of housing assistance includeworking residents earning low wages, residents who are unemployed, and residents who are disabled and cannotwork. ESTIMATE THE NUMBER AND TYPE OF FAMILIES IN NEED OF HOUSING ASSISTANCE FOR VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT AND STALKING AND/OR PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES: 19 U.S. Census Bureau, 2014-2018 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates 65 The Utah Domestic Violence Coalition reported that 36 Utahans lost their lives to domestic -violence in 2018 and has also reported 32 deaths as of the end of June 2019. Of these reported fatalities, 19 of these victims in 2018 and 16 of the reported 2019 fatalities have been Salt Lake County residents. 20 In addition, a total of 1,449 men, women, and children were sheltered in the two Utah domestic violence shelters located in Salt Lake City. Individualswho entered the domestic violence shelter system stayed for an average of45 days in 2019. There are many barriers for survivors of domestic violenceto overcome including securing permanent and stable housing, coping with trauma, accessing support for health and mental healthcare, and addressing the needs of children. Domestic violence resources currently available in Salt Lake County include shelter services, a children's justice center, survivor's assistance programs, and sexual assault programs. The Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA) is Salt Lake City's primary resource for survivors of domestic violence seeking out emergency shelter services. Emergency and extended shelter faci lities are available twenty- four hours a day in a 181-bed facility for women and children fleeing unsafe situations. In addition, the YWCA provides transitional housing for women and dependent children for up to 2 years through a partnership with the Salt Lake City Housing Authority. Eligibility prioritizes women who have experienced intimate partner violencewithin the last year, qualify under the federal definition of homeless, and are eligible for the services through the Housing Authority. During the 2018-2019 program year, the YWCA provided services for 770 women and children for a total of 37,114 days of service. The Rape Recovery Center provides 24-hour crisis intervention, advocacy, emotional support, and referrals to sexual assault victims, theirfamilies, and their friends in 150 languages. The center empowers those victimized by sexual violencethrough advocacy, crisis intervention, and therapy to educate the community aboutthe cause, impact, and prevention of sexual violence. During the 2018-2019 program year, the Rape Recovery Center served about 268 unduplicated clients in the Salt Lake area living below the poverty level. There was a total of 374 total unduplicated clients served in that sameyear. The Journey of Hope is a Salt Lake County based organization which provides services to at -risk women in Salt Lake City. It provides support to Utah women whose status puts them at -risk for criminal charges and provides support through mentoring and case management. It also provides job training to allow at -risk women to enter the workforce as educated and productive employees. These services are available to women who are survivors of abuse, experiencing homelessness, survivors of trafficking, struggling with substance abuse or mental illness, and women who are on parole or probation. The Journey of Hope assisted just over 400 women in the 2018- 2019 program year. Persons with Disabilities Estimates from the 2014-2018 American Community Survey indicatethat 21,828 residents, or 10.9% of the City's population, is living with a disability. The City's elderly population is mostaffected by disabilitywith 37.6% of residents over the age of 65 experiencing at least one disability. The data also shows that 51.2% the citizens of the Citywho are 75 years old and older are experiencing at least one disability. The mostcommon disability among the elderly is ambulatory difficultywhich is defined by the Census Bureau as "having serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs.1121 Salt Lake City looks to work collaboratively with partners that provide services for persons with disabilities, which include but are not limited to, Alliance House, Disability Law Center, Aging Services, ASSIST, and others. 20 Utah Domestic Violence Coalition, UTAH Domestic Violence Related Deaths in 2018 & 2019. 21 "How Disability Data are Collected from the American Community Survey," United States Census Bureau, Revised October 17, 2017, Retrieved August 7, 2019, https://www.census.gov/topics/health/disability/guidance/data-collection-acs.htmI 22 WHAT ARE THE MOST COMMON HOUSING PROBLEMS? HUD has defined housing problems and severe housing problems as follows: • Housing Problems o Household lacks complete kitchen facilities o Household lacks complete plumbing facilities o Household is overcrowded, with more than one person per room o Household is cost -burdened by paying 30% or moreof monthly income on housing costs • Severe Housing Problems o Household lacks complete kitchen facilities and/or complete plumbing facilities, in addition to one of the following: ■ Household is severely overcrowded, with more than 1.5 persons per room ■ Household is severely cost -burdened by paying 50% or more of monthly income on housing costs All rental properties in Salt Lake City require a business license. Landlords are required to maintain minimum standard condition of housing, as per Salt Lake City's Existing Residential Code. The purpose of the Residential Housing Code is to provide for the health, safety, comfort, convenience, and aesthetics of the City. The most common housing problem in Salt Lake City is cost -burden of monthly housing costs. Cost burden is a problem among all income groups but is most prevalent among low-income renters. According to the 2014-2018 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, 45% of renters are cost -burdened, spending at least 30% of their monthly income on housing costs. Among homeowners, 25.5% of owners with a mortgage and 10% of owners without a mortgage were cost -burdened. FIGURE NA-10.10 PERCENT OF INCOME SPENT ON HOUSING BY TENURE Less than 15% 72% 15 to 29.9% 30 to 49.9% 50% or more 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% ■ Renters ■ Owners with a Mortgage ■ Owners without a Mortgage Source: U.S. Census Bureau 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates ARE ANY POPULATIONS/HOUSEHOLD TYPES MORE AFFECTED THAN OTHERS BY THESE PROBLEMS? 80% 67 Housing problems, including cost -burden, are more likely to affect households earning 0 to 50% of the area median income (AMI). Households within this income range struggle to find safe, decent, and affordable housing and often spend a high proportion of their income on housing. These households have limited resources for other basic essentials, including food, healthcare, childcare, and transportation. Housing problems also significantly impact households in the 50 to 80% AMI income groups, elderly households, and single - parent households. The high rate of housing cost -burden and other housing problems points to the need to expand affordable housing opportunities throughout Salt Lake City. Healthcare costs have been rising and are projected to do so in the near term.23 This can add significantly to the burden of rising housing costs and reduce a household's ability to save for retirement, obtain additional education, access good childcare, and even impact such basic needs as good nutrition. DESCRIBE THE CHARACTERISTICS AND NEEDS OF LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN (ESPECIALLY EXTREMELY LOW-INCOME) WHO ARE CURRENTLY HOUSED BUT THREATENED WITH HOMELESSNESS. ALSO DISCUSS THE NEEDS OF FORMERLY HOMELESS FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE RECEIVING RAPID RE -HOUSING ASSISTANCE AND ARE NEARING THE TERMINATION OF THAT ASSISTANCE. In Salt Lake County, the largest group experiencing homelessness is adult -only households. The numberof householdswith both adults and children experiencing homelessness in 2018 decreased by about 36% between 2014 and 2019. The numberof unaccompanied youths experiencing homelessness decreased by about 85% over the same time period.24 Those transitioning out of assistance need continued counseling and often financial support to not revert back into homelessness. When they can, area service providers try to offer this support. However, the stakeholder meetings conducted as part of this Consolidated Plan revealed that caseloads are too high and that services are spread too thin due to a lack of funds and a shortage of a highly -skilled workforce. This results in lack of sufficient support for counseling,job training and guidance, and assistancewith behavioral health issues. It is a critical time period for those transitioning out of assistance and homelessness, when support services are most essential in order to embark upon, and maintain, self-sufficiency. This Plan recognizes a critical need in this area and proposes strategies to strengthen support for vulnerable populations at critical junctures in their lifetimes. 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. According to HUD, at risk of homelessness25is defined as an individual or family who: i. Has an annual income below 30% of median family income for the area; AND 23 Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) 24 2014 and 2019 Salt Lake County Point -in -Time 25 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, At Risk of Homelessness, https:Hfiles. hudexchange.info/resources/documents/AtRiskofHomelessnessDefinition_Criteria.pdf Z3 Does not have sufficient resources or support networks immediately available to prevent them from moving to an emergency shelter or another place defined in Category 1 of the "homeless" definition; 26 AND iii. Meets ONE of the following conditions: A. Has moved because of economic reasons two or moretimes during the 60 days immediately preceding the application for assistance; OR B. Is living in the homeof another because of economic hardship; OR C. Has been notified that their right to occupytheir current housing or living situation will be terminated within 21 days after the date of application for assistance; OR D. Lives in a hotel or motel and the cost is not paid for by charitable organizations or by Federal, State, or local government programs for low-income individuals; OR E. Lives in an SRO or efficiency apartment unit in which there reside more than two persons or lives in a larger housing unit in which there reside more than one and a half persons per room; OR F. Is exiting a publiclyfunded institution or system of care; OR G. Otherwise lives in housing that has characteristics associated with instability and an increased risk of homelessness, as identified in the recipient's approved consolidated plan SPECIFY PARTICULAR HOUSING CHARACTERISTICS THAT HAVE BEEN LINKED WITH INSTABILITY AND AN INCREASED RISK OF HOMELESSNESS The greatest predictor of homelessness risk is severe cost -burden on households. Households paying more than 50% of their income towards housing costs or having incomes at or below 50% of AMI are at the greatest risk to experience homelessness. DISCUSSION The most prevalent housing problem is cost -burden— especially for those who make less than 50% ofAMI. While Salt Lake City has seen a significant shiftto smaller apartment units (i.e., less bedrooms), there is still significant need for all housing types for the severely cost -burdened. Residents who fall into this category are usually forced to secure housing they cannot afford. Very low-income families burdened with high housing costs lack resources for basic essentials — most critically food and healthcare. Some residents who fall into this category are forced to share housing, causing overcrowded housing conditions. The lack of affordable housing can lead to homelessness for our most vulnerable residents. The City, through efforts of the Housing and Neighborhood Development Division, the City's Redevelopment Agency, and community partners, aim to address housing problems by preserving existing affordable housing, increasing the supply of affordable housing, and improving substandard housing with a focus in neighborhoods with concentrated poverty. These efforts will effectively reduce the incidence of overcrowding and cost -burden.

NA-25 DISPROPORTIONATELY GREATER NEED: HOUSING COST BURDENS-91.205(b)(2) INTRODUCTION This section provides an assessment of housing cost burdens by race and ethnicity as compared to level of need as a whole. According to HUD, disproportionately greater need exists when the percentage of persons in a category of need who are members of a particular racial or ethnic group is at least 10 percentage points higher than the percentage of persons in category as a whole. Table 25.1 showsthe numberof cost -burdened households by race and ethnicity.

Of the 75,445 households included in the sample, 32.26% of all households are shown as being cost -burdened. Black/African American, Pacific Islander, and Hispanic households all have a higher prevalence of cost -burden with over 50% of all households that report spending 30% or more on housing costs. Renter -occupied households also show a significant cost -burden with 39.5% of all renter occupied units reportedly are cost -burdened. NA-30 DISPROPORTIONATELY GREATER NEED: DISCUSSION - 91.205 (b)(2) ARE THERE ANY INCOME CATEGORIES IN WHICH A RACIAL OR ETHNIC GROUP HAS DISPROPORTIONATELY GREATER NEED THAN THE NEEDS OF THAT INCOME CATEGORY AS A WHOLE? Based on 2012-2016 CHASdata, the following racial and ethnic groups experience disproportionately greater housing needs: • Black/African American • American Indian/Alaskan Native • Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander • Hispanic/Latino Salt Lake City has evaluated disproportionate needs across racial and ethnic populations and household compositions. In general, low-income households, which are disproportionately com prised of racial and ethnic minorities, are more likely to experience housing needs. Figure NA-30.1 demonstrates the variation in per capita incomeacross racial and ethnic groups in Salt Lake City. FIGURE NA-30.1 PER CAPITA INCOME BY RACE AND ETHNICITY 76 Jurisdiction as a Whole Hispanic or Lab no $16,729 Two or More Races $18,339 Other Race Alone $13,585 Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander Alone $15,777 Asian Alone American Indian and Alaska Native Alone $13,709 Black or African Ame rl can Alone $17,195 White Alone, Not Hispanic or Latino $- $10,000 $20,000 Source: U.S. Census Bureau 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates $34,711 $29,621 ■ Per Capita Income $40,992 $30,000 $40,000 $50,000 Census data indicates that 13.9% of the City's White, non -Hispanic population is living below the poverty level, while 28.1% of Hispanics and 32.7% of Black/African American populations are living below the poverty level. Racial and ethnic children are more likely to live in poverty than their White, non -Hispanic counterparts, as many of the City's racial and ethnic minorities are children. The median age of the City's White, non -Hispanic population is 35.2 whilethe median age of the Hispanic population is 26.3.27 IF THEY HAVE NEEDS NOT IDENTIFIED ABOVE, WHAT ARE THOSE NEEDS? Considerable efforts are needed to improve housing opportunityto address the needs of minorities, with focus on minorities living in concentrated areas of poverty. Minoritiesface housing impedimentson several fronts, including few rental opportunities for large families, a high risk of predatory lending practices, and a high risk for housing discrimination. Gaps in access to housing opportunity and economic opportunity are likely to widen as the City's demographics continueto shift. Therefore, Salt Lake City is taking a comprehensive approach to improve housing opportunity and is in the process of developing and implementing a multifaceted strategy to address needs. The City is collaborating with Salt Lake County, local municipalities and community partners to define and address regional issues and priorities. Through outreach, partnership building, workforce training, early childhood education, and other efforts, the Citywill expand capacitywithin neighborhoods to take a comprehensive and proactive role in redevelopment efforts. Efforts will focus on two areas: 1) expanding opportunity in concentrated areas of poverty and RDA project investment areas; and 2) diversifying the housing stock throughoutthe Cityto expand affordable housing opportunities. ARE ANY OF THOSE RACIAL OR ETHNIC GROUPS LOCATED IN SPECIFIC AREAS OR NEIGHBORHOODS IN YOUR COMMUNITY? Figure 30.2 demonstrates that the vast majority of the City's minority population lives west of Interstate 15 with many of the block groups located in west -side neighborhoods having a minority share above 50%. The City's overall population growth between 1990 and 2010 can be attributed to minority populations, with minorities increasing in share from 17.4% in 1990 to 29.4% in 2000 and then to 33.3% in 2010. The rate of increase in population share has slowed recently, as the minority population only increased by 0.8% between 2' U.S. Census Bureau, 2014-2018 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates. 77 2010 and 2017 to 34.1%. Hispanics/Latinos represent the largest minoritygroup in the City, increasing in share from 9.7% in 1990 to 22.3% in 2010 and decreasing slightlyto 21.3% in 2017. In comparing the east and west sides of the City, there are significant differences in socioeconomic status with a gap in opportunityfor those generally living on the west side. Both minority renter and minority owner - occupied households are more concentrated west of 1-15. Minority populations are more likely than White, non-Hispanictobe low-income renter households, as Citywide minority homeownership rates are 11 percentage points lower than rates for White, non -Hispanic residents. However, the minorityshare of owner - occupied units is significantly higherwest of 1-15. A majority of the housing stock affordable to low and moderate -income residents is located on the west side.

The Housing Authority of Salt Lake City (HASLC) is responsible for managing the public housing inventory, developing new affordable housing units and administering the Housing Choice voucher programs for the City. The Authority strives to provide affordable housing opportunities throughoutthe community by developing new or rehabilitating existing housing that is safe, decent, and affordable — a place where a person's income level or background cannot be identified by the neighborhood in which they live. In addition to the development and rehabilitation of units, the HASLC also manages several properties emphasizing safe, decent, and affordable housing that provides an enjoyable living environment that is free from discrimination, efficientto operate, and remains an asset to the community. The HASLC maintains a strong financial portfolio to ensure flexibility, sustainability, and continued access to affordable tax credits, foundations, and grant resources. As an administratorof the City's Housing Choice voucher programs, the Housing Choice Voucher Program provides rental assistance to low-income families (50% of area median income and below). This program provides rental subsidies to 3,000 low-income families, disabled, elderly, and chronically homeless clients. Other programs under the Housing Choice umbrella include: Housing Choice Moderate Rehabilitation; Housing Choice New Construction; Project Based Vouchers; Multifamily Project Based Vouchers; Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing Vouchers; Housing Opportunities for Persons with HIV/AIDS; and Shelter plus Care Vouchers. Under these other Housing Choice programs, the HASLC provided rental subsidies to additional qualified program participants.

Their self -evaluation resulted in the following summary of measures, ad min istrativeactions, motivations, procedures, or adoption of policies in order to comply. • Placing notices of compliance in the legal section of local newspapers. • Maintaining a general mailing listof organizations concerned with and offering assistanceto people with disabilities. • Providing assistance to people with disabilities in filling out forms and applications, obtaining translators when needed, and having staff available to read or sign if required. • Providing the Equal Housing Opportunity (EHO) statement on housing materials and Equal Employment Opportunities (EEO) statement on employment applications and job announcements. • Conducting 504 compliance orientations for new employees and ongoing training for all staff. • Maintaining a list of all Reasonable Accommodation requests. • Assigning the Compliance Manageras the official person to coordinate and deal with 504 issues. • Adopting of grievance procedures by their Board of Commissioners. WHAT ARE THE NUMBER AND TYPE OF FAMILIES ON THE WAITING LIST FOR PUBLIC HOUSING AND HOUSING CHOICE (SECTION 8) TENANT -BASED RENTAL ASSISTANCE? The Housing Authority of Salt Lake City reports that there are currently 1,865 households on the Housing Choicewaiting list and 5,188 on the Public Housing waiting list. There is a total of 7,053 households on both lists. Of the households on both lists, 27% are elderly, and 53% have a disability. There are 14% Hispanic, 78% are White, non -Hispanic, 13% are African American, 3% are American Indian or Alaska Native, 3% are Asian, 3% are Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, 4% are Multi -Racial, and 1% are unknown. Thewaiting list is currently not open. An applicantfor voucherfunding can expectto be on the wait list for approximately 1 to 6 years. Housing Connect (Salt Lake County Housing Authority) also provided information on the waiting lists for public housing and Housing Choice TBRA. Within Salt Lake County, there are 15,981 households on the waiting list for public housing. Of those households, 2% have disability, 11% are elderly, 22% have children, and 51% are single. The average annual income is $15,399 and 77% are extremely low-income. The average wait is about 2 years, but it varies depending on bedroom size. In Salt Lake County, there are 447 households on the waiting list for Housing Choice. Of these households, 93 have a disability, 21 are elderly, 233 are single, and 110 have children. The average annual income is $12,954 and 90% are extremely low-income. The average wait time is 6 years. It should be noted that within the County's data, households on the waiting list are required to self -report a disability and this may have resulted in a lower percentage of disabled households in the data. 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? 81 Residents need affordable housing in locationsthat are near public transportation, quality education, healthcare, and other service providers. Those with the ability to work need services to increase overall self- sufficiency. HOW DO THESE NEEDS COMPARE TO THE HOUSING NEEDS OF THE POPULATION AT LARGE? Salt Lake City is experiencing a high demand for multi -family rental units as evidenced by the overall low vacancy rates in the City. This demand has resulted in an increase in the numberof new market rate units being constructed throughout the City. The need for quality affordable housing scattered throughoutthe City has becomegreater as the overall demand for rental housing has grown. Because land and development are more expensive on the east side of Salt Lake City, there are fewer naturally occurring affordable housing units on the east side. This leads to additional subsidy and creating affordable housing financing needing to be deployed for developments occurring on the east side of the city. Even with significant public investmentto subsidize and stimulatethe production of affordable housing, the supply is not meeting demand. DISCUSSION: Salt Lake Citywill continueto work with the Housing Connectand the Housing Authority of Salt Lake City to leverage and strategically target resources to address increasing housing needs. The numberof households on waiting lists is significant, especially forthe elderly and those with disabilities. Further, the short supply of rental units and lowvacancy rates has exacerbated the need for additional affordable rental housing. NA-40 HOMELESS NEEDS ASSESSMENT- 91.205(c) INTRODUCTION Salt Lake City representatives participate in the local Continuum of Cares (COC) executive board and its prioritization committeeto ensure the Continuum of Cares priorities are considered during Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) allocations. Also, the three local ESG funders meet regularly to coordinate ESG and COC activities to make sure services are not being over or under funded and services being funded meet the community's needs and goals. The Salt Lake Continuum of Care contracts with the State of Utah to administer HMIS. All service agencies in the region and the rest of the State are under a uniform data standard for HUD reporting and local ESG funders. All ESG funded organizations participate in HMIS. Currently, HMIS is supported by Client Track. Salt Lake Continuum ofCareconducts an annual Point -in -Time count at the end of January to count sheltered (emergency shelter and transitional housing) and unsheltered homeless individuals. Unsheltered homeless individuals are counted by canvassing volunteers. The volunteers use the VI-SPDAT to interview and try to connect unsheltered homeless individuals into services. A numberof critical reports define not onlythe issues facingthe homeless but likelysolutions to these issues. The most recent report is The State of Utah Strategic Plan on Homelessness September2079. Priorities of this Plan include: • Fewer days spent in emergency beds or shelters • Fewer persons returning to homelessness • Fewer first-time individuals who experience homelessness • More persons successfully retaining housing 82 This study also found that there are service gaps in the following areas: • Affordable housing, permanent supportive housing, and emergency beds • Mental health services and substance abuse disorder treatment • Case management • Prevention, diversion and outreach services • Data systems that capture more of the full story • Available transportation Essential facts about homelessness in Utah include: As of January 2018, Utah had an estimated 2,876 experiencing homelessness on any given day, as reported by Continuums ofCareto the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Of that total, 287 were family households, 239 were Veterans, 191 were unaccompanied young adults (aged 18-24), and 306 were individuals experiencing chronic homelessness. • Per State of Utah Annual Report on homelessness, there were 14,289 persons that experienced homelessness state wide in 2019. 9,387 were located in Salt Lake County. Public school data reported to the U.S. Department of Education during the 2016-2017 school year shows that an estimated 15,094 public school students experienced homelessness over the course of the year. Of that total, 636 students were unsheltered, 994 were in shelters, 459 were in hotels/motels, and 13,005 were doubled up. According to the 2019 Point -in -Time Count, Salt Lake County has 1,844 homeless individuals, representing nearly 66% of homelessness in the State. 193 of these individuals are unsheltered. • .09% of Utah's population is homeless • 29% of our homeless live in family groups of parents and children • Youth between the ages of 18 and 24 comprise7% of our homeless population • Domestic violence impacts 22.1% of our homeless population • 11% of the homeless population in Utah is experiencing "chronic" homelessness • 55% of our homeless population is White TABLE NA-40.1 HOMELESS NEEDS ASSESSMENT Population Estimate the # of persons experiencing homelessness on a given a g g Estimate the # experiencing homelessness Estimate the # ofincoming homeless each Estimate the # exiting homelessness Estimate the # ofdays persons experience Unsheltered Sheltered eachyear year eachyear homelessness Persons in Households with Adult(s) and - 526 N/A N/A N/A N/A Child(ren) 91 Estimate the # of persons a experiencing homelessness on a Estimate the # Estimate the # Estimate the # Estimate the # Population ivenni g g experiencing ofincoming exiting ofdayspersors homelessness homeless each homelessness experience Unsheltered Sheltered each year year each year homelessness Persons in Households - 3 N/A N/A N/A N/A with Only Children Persons in Households 193 1,122 N/A N/A N/A N/A with Only Adults Chronically Homeless 86 281 N/A N/A N/A N/A Individuals Chronically Homeless - 16 N/A N/A N/A N/A Families Veterans 12 145 N/A N/A N/A N/A Unaccompanied Youth 19 95 N/A N/A N/A N/A Persons with HIV 1 19 N/A N/A N/A N/A Source: 2019 Salt Lake County Point -in -Time TABLE NA-40.2 HOMELESS NEEDS ASSESSMENT COMPARISON WITH 2O14 AND 2019 - UNSHELTERED Population 2014 2019 Persons in Households with Adult(s) and Child(ren) 5 - Persons in Householdswith Only Children - - Persons in Householdswith Only Adults 105 193 Chronically Homeless Individuals 25 86 Veterans 15 12 Unaccompanied Youth - 19 Persons with HIV - 1 Source: 2019 Salt Lake County Point -in -Time TABLE NA-40.3 HOMELESS NEEDS ASSESSMENT COMPARISON WITH 2014 AND 2019 - SHELTERED Population 2014 2019 Persons in Households with Adult(s) and Child(ren) 813 526 Persons in Householdswith Only Children 2 3 Persons in Householdswith Only Adults 1,178 1,122 Chronically Homeless Individuals 265 281 Veterans 260 145 Unaccompanied Youth 616 95 Persons with HIV 49 13 Source: 2019 Salt Lake County Point -in -Time Homelessness has declined significantly since 2014 for unaccompanied youth.

Salt Lake County has 150 families (526 individuals) and 157 veterans experiencing homelessness, with no known veteran families. The primary tool to help these families is rapid re -housing to reduce the time families experience homelessnessto as short as possible. Families traditionally experience homelessness for short periods of time following cataclysmic events. Continuing the rapid re -housing program, coupled with homeless prevention efforts, will help familieswhile they experience these catastrophic times. DESCRIBE THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMELESSNESS BY RACIAL AND ETHNIC GROUP. The majority of individuals experiencing homelessness are White, non -Hispanic (1,349). The second largest group is Hispanic (426), followed by Black/African American (203) and American Indian/Alaska Native (97). This is similarto the makeup of Salt Lake Citywhere White, non -Hispanic accounts for73.7% of the population, Hispanic (21.3%), Black/African American (2.0%), and American Indian/Alaska Native (1.3%). DESCRIBE THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF UNSHELTERED AND SHELTERED HOMELESSNESS Salt Lake City has 1,651 individuals who are sheltered and 193 unsheltered homeless individuals. The Salt Lake homeless services community does a good job sheltering homeless individuals. However, it mustcontinueto work to move people out of emergency shelters and transitional housing and into permanent stable housing. NA-45 NON -HOMELESS SPECIAL NEEDS ASSESSMENT- 91.205(b, d) INTRODUCTION This section analyzes the needs of non -homeless special populations to includethe elderly, persons with disabilities (including physical, mental, developmental, as well as persons with chronic substance abuse disorders), persons living with HIV/AIDS, survivors of dating/domestic violence, single -parent households, large family households, and immigrants.

The Census Bureau tracks a metric called the "Old -Age Dependency Ratio" which measures the numberof people aged 65 and older to every 100 working age people. In this case, working age is defined as anyone between the ages of 20 and 64. Table NA-45.3 compares the City's ratio to those in the county, state, and national levels and shows that Salt Lake City has a highershare of working age residents compared to those who are 65 years and older.

The elderly population has increased byjust over 20,000 people between the 2010 Census and the 2014-2018 ACS5-year estimates. As shown in Table NA-45.4, the Kern C. Gardner Policy Institute currently projects the elderly population to increase at a substantially greater rate moving forward. They project that the elderly population will accountfor 14.5% of Salt Lake County's population by 2030 with the trend continuing until almost one in every five residents will be considered elderly. This expected increase will have large impacts on housing demand, transportation, healthcare services and other supportive services.

Of that group, 3,822 of these households have children under the age of 18 years old present in the home.29These households frequently face many unique and significant challenges that other populations do not currentlyface. According to the 2014-2018 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, Salt Lake City'sfamily poverty rate is 10.6%, while the single -mother household poverty rate is 40.7%. 28 "How Disability Data are Collected from the American Community Survey," United States Census Bureau, Revised October 17, 2017, Retrieved August 7, 2019, https://www.census.gov/topics/health/disability/guidance/data-collection-acs.html 29 U.S. Census Bureau, 2014-2018 America Community Survey 5-Year Estimates Single female -headed households with children often lack the resources necessary to find adequate childcare or job training services. This in turn impacts the woman's ability to provide stable housing and care for her children. If a mother is able to find work and childcare, the rising cost of childcare further diminishes single mothers' paychecks. There were 151,580 children in Utah under the age of 6 who needed care in 2019, but there were only 41,092 available slots reported in childcare programs. 30 This means there are at least two additional children in need of childcarefor every child who is currently in a childcare program. In 2016, the National Household Survey reported that the main reason families had difficulty finding childcarewas cost (31%) with the second most common reason being "lackof open slots" (27%). Immigrantsand Refugees Salt Lake City'sthriving economy, including strong wage growth, educational opportunities, and availability of services attracts immigrantsfrom around the world. Since opening in 1994, the International Rescue Committee's Salt Lake City branch has resettled over11,000 individualsfrom roughly 26 countries, with an average of about 450 individuals settled each year in the Salt Lake City over the past 5 years. Besides refugee resettlement, Salt Lake Cityattracts immigrants forjob opportunities, university studies, and family connections. According to the 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates, 32,709 (16.7%) of Salt Lake City's 195,701 residents are foreign born. Victims of Dating and Domestic Violence The Utah Domestic Violence Coalition reported that 36 Utahans lost their lives to domestic violence in 2018 and has also reported 19 deaths as of the end of June 2019. Of these reported fatalities, 19 of these victims in 2018 and 10 of the reported 2019 fatalities have been Salt Lake County residents. 31 In addition, a total of 1,449 men, women, and children were sheltered in the two Utah domestic violence shelters located in Salt Lake City. Individualswho entered the domestic violence shelter system stayed for an average of45 days in 2019. There are many barriers for survivors of domestic violenceto overcome including securing permanent and stable housing, coping with trauma, accessing support for health and mental healthcare, and addressing the needs of children. Large -Family Households A large family is defined as having five or more members. According to the Salt Lake City Fair Housing Equity Assessment, the number of large -family households receiving public assistance in Salt Lake City in 2019 totaled 9,991. The vast majority of large -family households receiving public assistance reside on the City'swest side in zip codes 84104 and 84116, with over 55% of the large -family households receiving public assistance residing in these zip codes.32 Persons with HIV/AIDS A report published by the Utah Department of Health indicates that 3,169 persons were living with HIV/AIDS in the State of Utah in December 2016. For nearly a decade, the number of people newly diagnosed with HIV in Utah declined steadily until 2011. After Utah experienced a large decrease in the number of cases during 2010, HIV infections have increased each year. During 2017, 83 people in the metropolitan statistical area were diagnosed with HIV. The cumulative numberofAIDS cases reached 2,094, and the diagnosis rate was 1.8% per 100,000 population.33 30 ChildCare Aware of America. 2019 State Child Care Facts in the State of: Utah. 31 Utah Domestic Violence Coalition, UTAH Domestic Violence Related Deaths in 2078 & 2019. 32 Utah Department of Workforce Services: Research & Analysis 33 Source: U.S. Centers for Disease Control HIVSurveillance M9 Medical and supportive resources for persons with HIV/AIDS are concentrated in Salt Lake City and Salt Lake County. Therefore, the majority of Utah's population with HIV/AIDS comes to Salt Lake City for medical treatment and services. This places a burden on local resource delivery systems aimed at providing stable housing, supportive services, and case management for these individuals. WHAT ARE THE HOUSING AND SUPPORTIVE SERVICE NEEDS OF THESE POPULATIONS AND HOW ARE THESE NEEDS DETERMINED? The housing and supportive service needs of special populationswas determined through focus groups with public service stakeholders, an evaluation of data derived from organizations who work with these populations, and other local and national data sources. Needs are as follows: Elderly The housing and supportive service needs of Salt Lake City's elderly population will increase as the baby boomer generation continuesto age. Elderly residents have a greater need for housing maintenance and rehabilitation assistancethan the population as a whole. The areas of the Citywhere elderly populations are concentrated, the East Bench and upper Avenues neighborhoods, contain an older and mostly single-family housing stock. There is a need to retrofit, update, and provide accessibility modifications for housing units occupied by elderly residents to allow them the opportunity to age in place. In addition to housing assistance, elderly populations are in need of in -home medical care, food services, and transportation services. Persons with Disabilities Affordable, stable, long-term housing is the most critical need for persons with mental, physical, and/or development disabilities, as well as persons suffering from addiction. Persons with mental, physical, developmental, and substanceabuse disabilities are more likely to experience housing instabilityand homelessness than the population as a whole. According to the State of Utah's 2019 Strategic Plan on Homelessness, which quotes from the 2018 Point -in -Time Count (PIT), one in three individuals experiencing homelessness in Utah is severely mentally ill, and one in fourhave a substanceabuse disorder. Additionally, individuals who experience homelessness are less likely to access healthcare systems and to suffer from preventable diseases. A large portion of the City'sdisabled population deals with am bulatory difficulties. Approximately 44.8%of residents reporting a disability indicate that at least one of their disabilities is ambulatory. Just under one in every 20 residents in Salt Lake City has serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs. 34Accommodationsforthose experiencing these difficulties will necessitate more accessible units with easier access to buildings. Female -Headed Householdswith Children More long-term stable housing is needed to address the needs of low-income female -headed householdswith children, as well asjob training, employment placement services, and childcare opportunities There were 151,580 children in Utah under the age of 6 who needed care in 2019, but there were only 41,092 available slots reported in childcare program s.35This means there are at least two additional children in need of childcarefor every child who is currently in a childcare program. In 2016, the National Household Survey reported that the main reason families across the nation had difficulty finding childcarewas cost (31%) with the second mostcommon reason being "lackof open slots" (27%). This, combined with the State's childcare discrepancy, indicatesthat there is an increased need for more affordable and available childcare services to allow female -headed households to provide for their children. 34 Source: U.S. Census Bureau 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates 3s Child Care Aware of America. 2019 State Child Care Facts in the State of: Utah. .11 Immigrantsand Refugees Immigrants and refugees comewith many needs, including affordable housing, cultural orientation services, healthcare, legal assistance, and transportation. There are many barriers to affordable housing for this group, including language, lack of credit history, and lack of income/employment history. As such, immigrants and refugees are at high risk for homelessness and housing discrimination. Services needed for immigrants and refugees include a path to self-sufficiency. Such services may include language training, employment assistance, and assistance with locating housing and transportation. Resettlement programs, currently provided through the Refugee and Immigration Center - Asian Association of Utah, Catholic Community Services and International Rescue Committeetake a comprehensive approach to the long-term outcomes of resettlement. Survivors of Dating/Domestic Violence Because survivors of domestic violence often reside with their abuser, they are at high risk for homelessness. Many survivors resist leaving abusive situations becausethey do not have the income, training, or resources to acquire their own housing. Emergency and transitional housing is especially importantto this group in order to provide them with a place to escape the cycle of abuse while theywork to attain self-sufficiency. In addition, many survivors are in need of supportive services to address physical and mental trauma. Large -Family Households The City has seen a decrease in housing stock for large families. In 2013, 8.4% of all rentals had 4 or more bedrooms; this numberdeclined to 6.7% by 2018. The percentage of 2-3 bedroom rental units increased indicating that smaller housing units are being built. Persons with HIV/AIDS Achieving housing stability is often difficultfor persons with HIV/AIDS because of problems with substance abuse and physical or mental health issues. These challenges can also make it difficult for these persons to obtain and maintain employmentthat provides a stable source of incomefor housing. Salt Lake City's Housing and Neighborhood Development Division is committed to ensuring HOPWA project sponsors work together in a coordinated, collaborative, and flexible manner to effectively serve HOPWA program participants. This includes supporting efforts for HOPWA-assisted householdsto access and maintain housing, medical treatment, and sources of income. Projectsponsors network with each other to alleviate identified barriers and promotean environmentthat ensures HOPWA clients are in treatment and have access to safe, decent, and affordable housing. Clients with mental and substance abuse disorders can receive case management services through Utah AIDS Foundation to obtain further access to services. DISCUSS THE SIZE AND CHARACTERISTICS OF THE POPULATION WITH HIV/AIDS AND THEIR FAMILIES WITHIN THE ELIGIBLE METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREA: Utah has seen a declining rate of individuals diagnosed with H IV who have ever been classified as stage 3 (AIDS). In 2012, there were 3.9 new cases of HIV/AIDS per 100,000 population according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control HIV Surveillance. According to this same source, in 2017 the rate was 1.8 per 100,000 population. In 2012, 110 individuals were diagnosed with HIV, according to the Utah Department of Health .36In 2017, 83 new H IV cases were reported.37 36 Utah Department of Health, Utah HIV Fact Sheet, 2013. 37 United States Centers for Diseases Control, HIV Surveillance Report 2017 91 Although Utah has seen slightly declining rates in new cases of HIV, there is significant racial disparity in the prevalence of new HIV cases. In 2015, 26.7% of new HIV cases were for Hispanic or Latino individuals who only accountfor 13.7% of the population in Utah.

It should be noted 92 that there were only 6 total new H IV diagnoses of Asian individuals in 2017, so 50% indicates 3 individuals were also diagnosed at Stage 3 (AIDS) at their initial diagnosis. Meanwhile, there were 38 individuals of Hispanic ethnic itywho were diagnosed with HIV in 2017 and 9 of those individuals were also diagnosed with Stage 3 (AIDS). NA-50 NON -HOUSING COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT NEEDS - 91.215(fl DESCRIBE THE JURISDICTION'S NEED FOR PUBLIC FACILITIES: Police and Fire Because of sign if icantcontributionsto police and fire infrastructure during the past decade, public safety is not currently considered atop priority community development need. During that time period, Salt Lake City constructed a $125 million Public Safety Building which is shared with the City's Fire Department and which is meeting the need for future growth -related police officers. Public safety also receives impact fees which will help to offset any future capital facility needs associated with new growth in the City. HOW WERE THESE NEEDS DETERMINED? As part of the Consolidated Plan process, an Interdepartmental Technical Advisory Group (ITAG) met three times to discuss needs from the perspective of various department within the City. DESCRIBE THE JURISDICTION'S NEED FOR PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS: Parks and Public Lands In order to maintain the current level of service, Salt Lake City Parks and Public Lands Division plans to invest approximately $38.7 million between 2017 and 2027. These costs should be offset by impact fees related to new growth. The Salt Lake City Parks and Public Lands Division participated in developing an Impact Fee Facilities Plan (IFFP) that identifies the capital facilitiesthe Citywill need to build within the next ten years (2012-2021) to continue the current level of service and accommodatethe service needs of projected growth. Salt Lake City Parks and Public Lands Division currently owns 2,378 park acres with an estimated land value of $210,134,805 and improvements value of $96,351,475. These assets are used to provide the current level of service which equates to an investmentof $1,594 per capita. Transportation In order to maintain the current level of service Salt Lake City Streets and Transportation Divisions plan to invest approximately $303,200,600 in capital facilities over the next ten years, $41,805,960 of which is growth related, and therefore eligible to be paid for with impactfees. The remaining amount is the result of correcting an existing deficiency in available space and investing in improved service levels, and therefore is not impact fee eligible. The remaining amount must be funded with revenue sources other than impact fees. The City has issued an $87 million bond to pay for street improvements. HOW WERE THESE NEEDS DETERMINED? As part of the Consolidated Plan process, an Interdepartmental Technical Advisory Group (ITAG) met three times to discuss needs from the perspective of various department within the City. 93 The Salt Lake City Streets and Transportation Divisions participated in the development of an Impact Fee Facilities Plan (IFFP) in 2016, reflecting growth from 2017 to 2027, and that identified the capital faciIitiesthe City will need to build within the 10-year timefram eto continue the current level of service and accommodate the service needs of projected growth. The bulk of the transportation improvements will be paid for with an $87 million bond issued by Salt Lake City, supplemented by impactfees. Therefore, street improvements are not considered to be a top priority of this Plan. DESCRIBE THE JURISDICTION'S NEED FOR PUBLIC SERVICES: The major need for public services is for affordable housing and for homeless services. Related to these two overarching needs are transportation needs for low-income households, economic opportunities such asjob training to increase self-sufficiency and supportive services for individuals with disabilities and behavioral health challenges. A summary of needs for the homeless and non -homeless populations is as follows: Homeless Public Service Needs • More mental health treatment services, including case management where current caseloads are considerablytoo high • Supportive housing forthe mentallyill • Job training • Permanent su pportive services, co -located with other supportive services • Tenant -based rental assistance • Homelessness prevention services • Access to transportation services (forjob seeking, medical visits, etc.) • Life skills training • Substance abuse and opioids counseling Non -Homeless Public Service Needs Housing • Expand housing opportunities in high opportunity areas • Encourage a diversityof housing product in neighborhoods to allow for lifecycle housing • Preserve affordable housing stock • Development of affordable housing units near transit stations • Supportive housing for people with HIV and AIDS Transportation • Access to childcare near transportation hu bs and employment centers • Transit passes at low or no cost • Bus stop improvements, especially suited for inclement weather, and focused on transit hubs • Sidewalk improvements and ADA improvements to increase mobility • Partnerwith UTAand other entities to improve transit access and enhancements in target areas Economic Development • Support employment centers in target areas where connectionsto transit, transportation corridors, and accessto services can minimize transportation costs, influence affordability, improve aircluality, and create vibrant, sustainable neighborhoods • Micro loans • Job training • Fagadeimprovements for small business 94 Health, Elderly and Disabilities • Need forsupportive services forseniors and personswith disabilities • Improve accessibilityof existing housing stock for persons with disabilities • Improved transit opportunities for people in wheelchairs including ADA-accessible wheelchairs • Review signal timing at intersectionsto ensure adequate time for senio rs orthose with disabilities • More mental health treatment services, including case management where current caseloads are considerablytoo high • Opioids, substanceabuse assistance • Mental health assistance • Dental and medical assistance • Supportive services forpersonswith HIVand AIDS • Senior assistance with supportive services, including transportation Parks and Public Lands • Improve publicsafetyin existing parks • Park and green space enhancements Management • Coordination with State programs to not overlap orfundthe same thing • Asset mapping of all existing programs, agencies, funding sources, etc. • Review Good Landlord and other obstacles to obtaining housing (i.e., credit history, felonies, etc.) • Use innovative technologies such as Apps to better align supplyand demand for housing HOW WERE THESE NEEDS DETERMINED? Salt Lake City's homeless needs are determined through evaluation of the annual Point -in-Time Study as well as the recently released State Strategic Plan on Homelessness. In addition, the public participation portion of this process featured a series of three meetingswith stakeholder agencies, including Shelter the Homeless, Volunteers of America -Utah, Salt Lake Valley Habitat for Humanity, and Housing Connectformerly known as the Salt Lake County Housing Authority. This process was a critical factor in determining homeless needs. Finally, a survey was prepared which received over 4,000 responses. The survey results indicated that homeless and affordable housing issues should be the top priority for the City. The non -homeless public service needs of Salt Lake City's low to moderate -income residents and special populations were determined through a Stakeholder AdvisoryCommitteethat included representatives from a broad view of public service providers (discussed in more detail in the Citizen Participation section of this Plan), as well as a review of local and national data. 95 HOUSING MARKET ANALYSIS The Market Analysis provides a clear picture of the environment in which Salt Lake City will administer its federal grant programs over the course of the Consolidated Plan. In conjunction with the Needs Assessment, the Market Analysis provides the basis for the Strategic Plan and the programs and projects to bead ministered. - 97 MA-05 OVERVIEW Salt Lake City has transitioned over the years to become one of the most diverse, sustainable, and innovative economies in the nation. With unsurpassed outdoor recreation opportunities, intern ationaIIyacclaimed technology and research facilities, well -respected and competitive higher education institutions, industry - leading healthcare facilities, a modern light rail and streetcar transit system, an expanding international airport, a growing population, an educated workforce, a multilingual population and diverse cultural opportunities, the City is attracting nationally -recognized businesses. This provides an opportunityto build strong neighborhoods with vibrant businesses, along with diverse housing opportunities. However, with this strong economy, housing prices have increased faster than household incomes, making it more and more difficultfor low-income families to find affordable housing. Between 2000 and 2018, rental rates have increased by 81.8%; rental rates have continued to rise to historically h igh rates, with a 32% increase between 2010 and 2018. Decreases in rental affordability, combined with extremely low vacancy rates, have created a very tight rental market, leading to increased difficultyfor low-income households to obtain affordable housing. Individuals displaced from housing will have a more difficulttime, given market conditions, of finding suitable substitute housing. There is a need for preservation of existing housing stock and strategies to combat displacement in housing for vulnerable populations. Such strategies will benefit low-income populations and stabilize neighborhoods. Some key points of the market analysis include: Housing Market Conditions Between 2000 and 2018 the cost of housing significantly increased for both renters and homeowners. The median rental rates increased by 81.8% and home values increased by 89.8%. During the same time period, the median household incomeonly increased by 52.6%. Since incomes did not keep up with increases in housing costs, it has become more difficultfor residents to buy homeas evidenced by a declining homeownership rate (from 56.9% in 2000 to 48.4% in 2018).38 An analysis of Salt Lake City's homebuyer market demonstrates a reasonable range of low-income households will continue to qualify for mortgage financing assistance: • US Census data, Salt Lake City, 2000-2018: o The median homevalues increased 89.8%, from $152,400 to $289,200 o The median household income increased by 52.6%, from $36,944 in 2000 to $56,370 • HUD, HOME Income Guidelines for 2020, Salt Lake County, 80% AMI for a family of 4: $70,300 • US Census data, Salt Lake City, 2014-2018: o The number of households earning $50,000 - $74,999: 13,991 households, 17.9% of total population o The average monthly owner costs with a mortgage, $1,534 • Utah RealEstate.com, May 2020, numberof Salt Lake City listings between $100,000-$299,999: 554 • Salt Lake County rental rates are at an all-time high, showing a 51% increase between 2010 and 2018. 38 U.S. Census Bureau, 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates M. In 2018, the apartment vacancy rate in Salt Lake City was the lowest rate in Salt Lake County at 2.7% and the Downtown area had an even lower rate at 1.6%.39 A tight rental market and rising rents create a barrier for households in need of affordable housing. An analysis of housing gaps has determined that Salt Lake City has a shortage of 6,177 rental units affordable to renters earning less than $20,000 per year. This is down from a shortage of 8,240 rental units in 2013. • Specifically, shortages occurfor affordable rental housing for extremely and very low-income households making less than 50% AMI; affordable and accessible housing for persons with disabilities; affordable rental housing for large families; and permanent supportive housing for vulnerable populations such as individualswhoare chronically homeless, mentally disabled, or physically disabled. Barriers to Affordable Housing • Poor housing conditions can also be a barrier to suitable, affordable housing. HUD defines poor housing conditions as overcrowding, cost -burdened, a lack of complete plumbing, or kitchen facilities. Based on this definition, about 44.8 % of renters and 20.8% of owners live in a unit with at least one condition. 2012-2016 CHAS data also indicates that there are 570 housing units, vacant and occupied, that lack a complete kitchen or plumbing facilities. • Barriers to affordable housing development include both market and regulatory factors. These include land costs, construction costs, financing resources, foreclosures, neighborhood market conditions, economic conditions, land use regulations, development assessments, permit processing procedures, a lack of zoning incentives and landlord -tenant policies. • A contrast of mortgage denials and approvals exists between racial and ethnic populations in Salt Lake County. The mortgage application denial rate for Hispanics (20%) in Salt Lake City is significantly higher than that of non -Hispanics (13%) 40 • Transportation costs can be a barrier to affordable housing, especially if transportation costs are significant due to distances traveled and time spent during the commute. Nearly half of workers living in the Citytravel 15 to 29 minutes for work. Housing Services • The Housing Authority of Salt Lake City currently manages 30 properties including Housing Choice Vouchers, Project Based Vouchers, Mod Rehab Vouchers and programs for Veterans, homeless, disabled, and elderly persons. These properties offer over 1,600 units of varying sizes. A variety of facilities and services are offered to homeless individuals and families, including emergency shelters, transitional housing, safe havens, permanent supportive housing, tenant based rental assistance, outreach and engagement, housing placement, general medical, employment, substance abuse, behavioral health, legal aid, veteran services, public assistance, family crisis, hygiene, and other miscellaneous services. These services are provided by government agencies, faith -based organizations, service -oriented groups, housing authorities, health service organizations, and others. 39 Cushman Wakefield, Apartment Market Report: GreaterSatt Lake Area, 2018 40 Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council, Home Mortgage Disclosure Act 99 In addition to supporting housing and homeless services with federal funding, Salt Lake City Corporation spent $2,554,000 on Homelessness Related Services in fiscal year 2018-19. The funding camefrom General Fund resources and highlights the City's commitment to providing support for our most vulnerable citizens. Salt Lake City's housing and supportive service network addresses the needs of the elderly, persons with disabilities, persons with substance addictions, persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, and public housing residents through a variety of efforts that are designed to be coordinated a case manager and referral format to link residents to services and support opportunities. MA-10 NUMBER OF HOUSING UNITS-91.120(a)&(b)(2) INTRODUCTION The Census Bureau estimates in the 2014-2018 American Community Survey that there are 84,784 housing units in the City with 92.3% reportedly occupied; 48.4% of those units are owner -occupied. The number of housing units has increased by 4,060 units from the 80,724 units reported in the 2010 U.S. Census. This is an increase of 5%, which is much higherthan the national increase of 3.6% in that same period. Salt Lake City is the most populated city in the County and comprises 21.7% of the County's housing stock. Table MA-10.1 shows a breakdown of the housing inventory located within the City. 1-unit detached structures are the largest property type, accounting foralmost half the housing units in Salt Lake City. However, multi- family housing complexes of 20 or more units saw the largest growth since2013 in terms of percentage and now represents approximately 22% of the properties by housing type.

Sources and financing include low-income housing tax credits, Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), HOPWA, Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund, the Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund, Salt Lake City's Redevelopment Agency, the City's General Fund, Funding Our Future, and Housing Connect. Thefollowing funding sources are utilized to target specific housing activities: CDBG A portion of Salt Lake City's CDBG funding is utilized for housing activities, including housing rehabilitation, historic preservation, home repair programs, tenant -based rental assistance, homeownership, and down payment assistance. CDBG funding is targeted to households earning 0 to 80% of AMI. ESG Salt Lake City utilizes ESG funds to provide homelessness prevention assistance to households who would otherwise become homeless and to rapidly re -house persons who are experiencing homelessness. The funds provide for a variety of assistance, including emergency shelter, homeless prevention, short- or medium -term rental assistance, housing placement, and housing stability case management. ESG funding is targeted to extremely low-income individuals and households that are at or below 30% AMI. HOME Salt Lake City utilizes HOME funds to provide a wide range of activities including building, acquiring, and/or rehabilitating affordable housing for rent or homeownership, aswell as providing direct rental assistance to low-income households. HOME funding istargeted to households earning 0 to 80% AMI with rental assistance specifically targeted to a lower AMI. HOPWA Salt Lake City administers the HOPWA program for the Salt Lake Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), which includes Salt Lake, Summit, and Tooele Counties. HOPWA funds are utilized to provide the following housing services to HOPWA eligible persons: • Housing Information Services • Tenant -based Rental Assistance (TBRA) • Project -based Rental Assistance(PBRA) • Short-term Rent, Mortgage, Utility Assistance (STRMU) • Permanent Housing Placement Assistance (PH P) • Housing Supportive Services • Housing Coordination/Resource Identification HOPWAfunding targets extremely low -to low-income individuals diagnosed with HIV/AIDS. Local Funds The Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund provides financial assistance to support the development and preservation of affordable and special needs housing in Salt Lake City. Eligible Activities include acquisition, new construction, and rehabilitation of both multi -family rental properties and single-family homeownership. Funding is targeted to households earning up to 80% AMI. 101 Salt Lake City Redevelopment Agency Under Utah Code Title 17C Community Reinvestment Agencies Act, the Salt Lake City Redevelopment Agency is able to contribute up to 20% of tax inc rem entfrom each project area to fund affordable housing projects throughout the City. Available funds vary from year-to-year, depending on the amount of tax increment generated in the Agency's various project areas. In the past 50 years, the Redevelopment Agency has created nearly 7,000 housing units of which nearly half are affordable. Low -Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) The Utah Housing Corporation (UHC) Multifamily Finance Department is committed to partnering with developers and investors to utilize State and Federal Tax Credits and bond financing. These resources facilitate the development of new and rehabilitated apartments to provide housing for low-income families, senior citizens, and more. The program increases the availability of rental housing to households earning 60% or less of the area median income. During the 2019 fiscal year, UHC allocated $8.7 million in annual 9% federal tax credits and $1.3 million in annual4% federal tax credits. The UHC helped over 4,200 families purchase a homewith its down payment assistance program and helped fund affordable housing development that created nearly 1,000 new rental units across Utah. Much of the developmentof affordable housing development or preservation that occurs in Salt Lake City requires a funding partnership that includes a combination of LIHTC, State funding via the Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund, and City resources. State Funds The Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund's (OWHLF) Multi -Family Program provides financial assistance for the acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation of affordable rental households at or below 50% of AMI, and the median income of all households served through the OWH LF is 43.8% of AMI. During fiscal year 2019, the fund supported construction or rehabilitation of 1,281 units of multi -family housing, aswell as 136 single-family units statewide.

According to an apartment market report completed in the summerof 2018, the Salt Lake Cityarea apartment vacancy rate was at 2.7% with the Downtown area reporting a 1.7% vacancy rate.41 With rental inventory nearly completely occupied, it is difficult for households at all AMI levels to find adequate rental housing, with increased difficultyfor households at lower AMIs. Limitations on housing choice are particularly significant for the low-income elderly, who have the highest levels of disability and tend to live in older housing stock. Housing availability for persons with a disability will become increasingly scarce as the baby -boomer cohort increases in age. 41 Cushman Wakefield, Apartment Market Report.- Greater Salt Lake Area, 2018 103 DESCRIBE THE NEED FOR SPECIFIC TYPES OF HOUSING: Salt Lake City has evaluated the need for specific housing types in consideration of current housi ng needs and future population changes. Currently, specific segments of Salt Lake City's population are not well -served by the housing market, with gaps in the following types of housing: • Affordable rental housing for extremely low-income households • Affordable and accessible housing for persons with disabilities • Affordable rental housing for large families • Permanent supportive housing for vulnerable populations to include individualswhoare chronically homeless, mentally disabled, physically disabled and others MA-15 COST OF HOUSING- 91.210(a) INTRODUCTION Between 2000 and 2018, the cost of housing significantly increased for both renters and homeowners. As demonstrated in Table MA-15.1, the median contract rent increased from $516 in 2000 to $938 in 2018, an 81.8% increase. Median homevalues increased 89.8%, from $152,400 to $289,200. During the same time period, the median household income only increased by 52.6%, from $36,944 in 2000 to $56,370 in 2018. Since incomes have not kept up with increasing housing costs, it is more difficult for residents to buy or rent a home. Subsequently, homeownership rates have decreased from 56.9% in 2000 to 48.4% in 2018.

The lack of affordable housing is particularly prevalent for extremely low-income households. An analysis of housing gaps has determined that Salt Lake City has a shortage of 6,177 rental units affordable to renters earning less than $20,000 per year. This indicates that the shortage has decreased by 2,063 since 2013 when the reported shortage was 8,240. Some of these renters are university students who will have future earnings increases, but many are low-income families, persons with disabilities,10 and persons who are unemployed.

Housing costs have increased during the past few years in both the rental and ownership markets. As Table MA-15.6 demonstrates, Salt Lake County rental rates are at an all-time high, with a 51% increase between 2010 and 2018. Decreases in rental affordability combined with low vacancy rates have created a very tight rental market, particularly for low-income households.

HOW MIGHT THIS IMPACT YOUR STRATEGY TO PRODUCE OR PRESERVE AFFORDABLE HOUSING? HOME rents and Housing Choice Fair Market Rents are lower than actual rental rates in Salt Lake City. Therefore, it is critical that the existing stock of subsidized housing is preserved and mechanisms are put in place to help address the gap in HOME/Fair Market Rents and the prevailing rent amounts. Individuals and families displaced from subsidized housing will have a difficulttime finding suitable replacement housing affordable at their income level. In the current housing market, rental subsidies are usually required for populations that fall below 50% AMI. The City should prioritize the rehabilitation of existing housing stock and anti -displacement strategies to meet the needs of vulnerable populations and stabilize neighborhoods. DISCUSSION Tight market conditions with historically high rents and very low vacancy rates have exacerbated the challenges of low-income households to obtain affordable housing. An analysis of housing gaps has determined that Salt Lake City has a shortage of 6,177 rental units affordable to renters earning less than $20,000 per year. This is a decline of 2,063 units from the shortage of 8,240 rental units in 2013. With rising rents and few units available, this situation is likelyto worsen. It is the City's intent to be proactively involved in preserving existing affordable housing and facilitating the development of additional affordable housing. This is essential in order to prevent an increase in homelessness from the current extremelytight housing market. The Strategic Plan identifies how Salt Lake City intends to use federal funding to preserve and facilitate affordable housing in our community. MA-20 CONDITION OF HOUSING- 91.210(a) INTRODUCTION HUD defines housing conditions as overcrowding, cost -burdened, a lack of complete plumbing, or kitchen facilities. Based on this definition, about 44.8% of renters and 20.8% of the owners live in a unit with at least one condition. CHAS data also indicates that there are 570 housing units, vacant and occupied, that lack complete kitchen or plumbing facilities. DESCRIBE THE JURISDICTION'S DEFINITION FOR "SUBSTANDARD CONDITION" AND "SUBSTANDARD CONDITION BUT SUITABLE FOR REHABILITATION:" The City defines substandard housing units as those that are not in compliancewith theCity's existing housing code. "Substandard condition" is not a term this jurisdiction uses; instead, projects are designed to address items in residential units that do not meet that code. The City also follows the federal register definitions for substandard housing as defined in 24 CFR § 5.425 Federal preference: Substandard housing. For units to be considered in "substandard condition but suitable for rehabilitation," they must be both economically and structurally viable. All rental properties in Salt Lake City require a business license. Landlords are required to 107 maintain minimum standard condition of housing, as per Salt Lake City's Existing Residential Code. The purpose of the Residential Housing Code is to provide for the health, safety, comfort, convenience, and aesthetics of the City.

Older homes are more likely to have condition problems and are at higher risk of lead -based paint. Approximately 29% of housing units in Salt Lake City were built prior to 1940.42 Many older homes may be in excellent condition due to revitalization efforts in the area; however, condition issues are still more likely to occur in older homes. Many of the block groups with a high percentage of older unitstend to be located below 900 South and east of State Street. This can be seen in the figure below: FIGURE MA-20.1 PERCENT OF BLOCK GROUP HOUSING UNITS BUILT BEFORE 1950 ~MR 2W f� Council District 2 anc,l District 6 LWMM Counstrict 5 nnn� 6 Source: U.S. Census Bureau: 2013-2017 ACS 5-Year Estimates TRAX Route City Council Districts Built Before 1950 Less than 10 % 10 to 30% - 30 to 50 % I♦ 50 to 65% _ More than 65% ESTIMATE THE NUMBER OF HOUSING UNITS WITHIN THE JURISDICTION THAT ARE OCCUPIED BY LOW- OR MODERATE -INCOME FAMILIES THAT CONTAIN LEAD -BASED PAINT HAZARDS. 91.205 (e), 91.405 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has identified that approximately three-quarters of the nation's housing stock built before 1978 contains some lead -based paint. This means residential units built prior to 1978 42 U.S. Census Bureau: 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates 109 are considered to be most at risk for containing lead -based paints (LBP) as the use of LBP was prohibited in residential units after 1978. The 2012-2016 CHAS reports that a pproximately83% of owner -occupied units and 73% of renter -occupied units were built prior to 1980. This means that up to 77.7% of Salt Lake City'stotaI housing stock is at risk of exposure to LBP. DISCUSSION Salt Lake City has many older homes which are more likelyto contain LBP. Homes built before 1940 have an 87% chance of containing LBP according to the EPA and 29% of the City's housing supply was built during 1939 or earlier.43 FIGURE MA-20.2 PROBABILITY OF CONTAINING LEAD -BASED PAINT BY YEAR CONSTRUCTED Before 1940 1 87% 1940- 1959 69% 1960-1977 24% 0% 20 % 40 % 60 % 80% 100% Source: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, http://www2.epa.gov/lead/protect-your-family Lead is highlytoxic and can cause many serious health problems, especially in young children who have a greater risk of exposure and also a higher level of susceptibility to lead poisoning. Familieswith children under six may face the risk of the child ingesting paint chips on the walls and floors of these older buildings. These highlytoxic paint chips, and even lead dust, can cause lead poisoning. According tothe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there is no identified safe level of lead exposure in children. Exposure to lead can lead to: • Damage to the brain and nervous system • Slowed growth and development • Learning and behavior problems • Hearing and speech problems Which can cause: • Lower IQ • Decreased ability to pay attention • Underperforming in school" 43 Source: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, http://www2.epa.gov/lead/protect-your-family 44 Center for Disease Control and Prevention — Health Effect of Lead Exposure.

Additionally, the Lead Safe Housing program created by Salt Lake County provides free inspections, dust sampling analysis, blood testing for children under six, window replacement, pai nt removal on doorjambsand floors, and specialized cleaning.45The program is aimed at assisting low- or moderate -income households in providing lead -safe homes. MA-25 PUBLIC AND ASSISTED HOUSING- 91.210(b) INTRODUCTION Local housing authorities provide long-term rental housing and rental assistance through Low -Income Public Housing (LIPH), Housing Choice Vouchers (Section 8), and Continuum of Care housing vouchers.

The Housing Authority of Salt Lake Cityand Housing Connect both conductand complete an annual property needs assessment in order to maintain the properties in a decent and safe manner. The Housing Authority has maintained its Public Housing properties in the past with the use of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Capital Fund Grants. These grants are tied to Public Housing. The Housing Authority of Salt Lake City has applied for a H UD program, Resident Assistance Demonstration (RAD), which is a voluntary program, seeking to preserve public housing by providing housing agencies with access to more stable funding to make needed improvements to properties. 112 The RAD program allows PH As to manage a property using one of two types of HUD funding contracts that are tied to a specific building and replace the operating subsidy and capital funds previously used. Housing Choice project -based voucher (PBV) or Housing Choice project -based rental assistance (PBRA). Both are 15-20 years long and are more stable funding sources. This shift will make it easier for PHAsto borrow money and use low- income housing tax credits (LIHTCs) as well as other forms of financing. These private sources of additional money will enable the Housing Authorityto make im provements essential for preserving the Public Housing stock. This funding change does not change the amount of rent paid by residents or the clientele served. HASLC has also developed a 30-year replacement and improvement plan and each property has a schedulefor improvements that is broken down to one- and five-year plans. DESCRIBE THE PUBLIC HOUSING AGENCY'S STRATEGY FOR IMPROVING THE LIVING ENVIRONMENT OF LOW- AND MODERATE -INCOME FAMILIES RESIDING IN PUBLIC HOUSING: The following are examplesof strategies that have been implementedto improve living conditionsat City housing complexes: a strengthened application screening process; strict lease enforcement; off -duty Salt Lake City Police Officer conducting security patrols on their properties; improved exterior lighting; added accessibility for those aging in place; implementation of a preventative maintenance program; and upgrades and renovations to properties when possible, as needed.

Efforts are typically coordinated through a case management and referral formatto link services and opportunities. • Physical healthcare programs • Mental healthcare programs • Emergency daycare services • Youth day centers • Homeless day centers • Emergencyfood pantries • Tenant -based rental assistance (TBRA) programs • Project -based rental assistance (PBRA) programs • Transitional housing programs • Rapid re -housing programs permanent supportive housing programs • Housing accessibility programs homelessness prevention services • Substance addiction treatment programs • Life skills training programs • Employment training programs • Transportation assistance programs • Fair housing advocacy programs Even with the multitude of diverse services available in Salt Lake City, there are still gaps in services. For example, substance addiction treatment centers that serve homeless and low-income individuals, including First Step House, St. Mary's Center for Recovery, and The Haven, have considerable waiting lists. Similarly, programs that provide physical healthcare, rental assistance, homelessness prevention, employment services, and life skills training do not have enough funding to meet demand. DESCRIBE PROGRAMS FOR ENSURING THAT PERSONS RETURNING FROM MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH INSTITUTIONS RECEIVE APPROPRIATE SUPPORTIVE HOUSING. Programs that provide supportive housing opportunities for persons dealing with mental and physical health recovery are available in Salt Lake City. However, supportive housing opportunities for these populations are in high demand with limited resources available. The Valley Behavioral Health's Safe Haven program provides homeless individuals with severe mental illness housing and personalized assistance programs. It also provides comprehensive mental health support and treatment for temporary and lifelong issues caused by traumatic life events. The program offers treatments for psychiatric conditions, behavioral issues, autism, addiction, and other health conditions. In addition, Salt Lake City partners with the local housing authorities, Utah Community Action Program, the Salt Lake Continuum of Care, local homeless resource centers, Salt Lake Countyand the State of Utah to determine the housing and supportive services need of non -homeless population who require these services. 117 SPECIFY THE ACTIVITIES THAT THE JURISDICTION PLANS TO UNDERTAKE DURING THE NEXT YEAR TO ADDRESS THE HOUSING AND SUPPORTIVE SERVICES NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN ACCORDANCE WITH 91.215(e) WITH RESPECT TO PERSONS WHO ARE NOT HOMELESS BUT HAVE OTHER SPECIAL NEEDS. LINK TO ONE-YEAR GOALS 91.315(e). Please refer to section AP-20 and AP-35 of the Salt Lake City 2020-21 Annual Action Plan for specific one- year goals to address housing and supportive service needs of non -homeless, special needs populations. FOR ENTITLEMENT/CONSORTIA GRANTEES: SPECIFY THE ACTIVITIES THAT THE JURISDICTION PLANS TO UNDERTAKE DURING THE NEXT YEAR TO ADDRESS THE HOUSING AND SUPPORTIVE SERVICES NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN ACCORDANCE WITH 91.215(e) WITH RESPECT TO PERSONS WHO ARE NOT HOMELESS BUT HAVE OTHER SPECIAL NEEDS. LINK TO ONE-YEAR GOALS. (91.220(2)) The City will continue to provide tenant -based rental assistance, project -based rental assistance, short-term rental assistance, housing placement, and supportive services for persons with HIV/AIDS and other special populations through the HOPWA, HOME, and ESG programs. MA-40 BARRIERS TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING- 91.21 O(e) Various market barriers can limit the preservation, improvement, and development of housing, especially in regard to affordable housing for low and moderate -income residents. Both market and regulatory factors affect the ability to meet current and future housing needs. Barriers have been identified by previous task force groups organized by Salt Lake City's Housing and Neighborhood Development Division, as well as through extensive interviews with local brokers, developers, housing representatives, planners, etc. Identified barriers to the preservation, improvement and developmentof housing of affordable to low and moderate -income households includethe following: Economic Conditions • While incomes have increased significantly in the Salt Lake Valley since 2010, they have not kept pace with increases in construction costs and housing values. Consequently, the gap between incomes and housing has increased. • Select neighborhoods in Salt Lake City spend significantly more on transportation costs than others. This results in less income available for housing. Land Reciulations and Permitting Process • Salt Lake City'sZoning Ordinance (sim ilarto other cities) contains regulations that establish standards for residential development including minimum lotsize, density, unit size, height, setback, and parking standards. Some of these regulations can inhibitthe ability for affordable housing development feasibility (i.e., profitability), includingthefollowing: o Density limitations o Lackof multifamilyzoning o Stringent parking requirements (reducing cost feasibility) • The process to waive/reduce impactfees for affordable housing is reportedly difficultto navigate for some developers. 118 Permitting and environmental review processes are often time consuming and reduce possible profits for developers, thereby discouraging development and/or encouraging developmentof higher -margin product (i.e., market -rate units). Land Costs • High land costs in certain areas do not allow for adequate profit in the developmentof lower -income housing product, particularly in desirable neighborhoods that have experienced growth and new construction over the past decade. Most affordable land is located on the west side of Salt Lake City, furthering the concentration of affordable housing in select areas, and inhibiting the dispersal of housing options throughoutthe City. • Land costs restrict the ability to place affordable housing in closer proximityto necessary services, particularly near transit options and employment centers. Consequently, new housing often is constructed in areas that result in high percentages of income being spent towards transportation. Ultimately, these developments further exacerbate traffic issues. Construction Costs • Construction costs, particularly labor costs, have experienced notable fluctuations in the recent past. This has caused upward pressure on rent and limited what type of product developers are able to provide. Consequently, the profit margin in providing affordable housing is typically limited, or altogether non-existent without the presence of incentives and tax credits. • Rehabilitation of existing product has increased in cost due to overall labor shortages. Furthermore, the gained value of improvements is often not more than the costs of construction, resulting in limited or no profit for undertaking such renovation. This limits the desire to undertake such endeavors unless incentives can be provided. Development and Rehabilitation Financing • Affordable housing projects with complex layered finance structures can experience increased land holding costs because of additional due diIigenceand longer timelines. This is partially alleviated with City incentive programs that reduce some financing pressures. • There is strong competition for local funding tools, such as the State of Utah's Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund. Neighborhood Market Conditions • Negative public perception and community opposition ("NIMBYism") can limit affordable housing developmentwhen a zoning approval process is required. • Some neighborhoods that have access to transit options do not have the appeal for large-scale housing developments, due primarily to low -quality surrounding improvements, higher crime rates, and limited employment diversity. For a discussion on current and proposed efforts to reduce or barriers to affordable housing, please see section SP-55 Barriers to Affordable Housing in this Plan. MA-45 NON -HOUSING COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ASSETS — 91.215(f) INTRODUCTION Salt Lake City is on the pathwayto becoming one of the most diverse, sustainable, and innovative economies in the nation. The City links together unsurpassed outdoor recreation opportunities; internationally acclaimed technology and research facilities; competitive higher education institutions; industry -leading healthcare facilities; a light rail and streetcar transit system; an international airport; and cultural opportunities. Strong 119 economic activity is enhanced by culturally rich neighborhoods that intermix diverse housing opportunities with locally owned businesses. Although Salt Lake City's economy is strong, economic inequality is escalating within the community. Between 2000 and 2017, homeowner incomes increased by 52.7% while renter incomes only increased by40.9%. The individual poverty rate increased between 2000 and 2017 rising from 13.7% to 17.8%. There are high social and economic costsfor increasing economic inequality and allowing familiesto remain in poverty.

Table MA-45.1 shows that the major employment sectors within this jurisdiction are: 1) Education and Health Care Services; 2) Professional, Scientific, Management Services; 3) Arts, Entertainment, Accommodations; and 4) Retail Trade. The largest employers in the County are the University Hospital, Salt Lake County, and the University of Utah. DESCRIBE THE WORKFORCE AND INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS OF THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY: Salt Lake City has been known as the "Crossroads of the West" for over 150 years. The term originated when the Transcontinental Railroad was completed in 1869 at Promontory, Utah and is still true as the Salt Lake International Airport is one of the busiest airports in the western United States. It facilitated over 330,000 flights in 2018. These flights connect cargo, passengers, and international business opportunities to the area and these factors have played a large role in many businesses choosing to use Salt Lake City as their corporate headquarters. Two major interstates —1-15 and 1-80 — intersect in Salt Lake City, thus providing significant distribution accessibility and economic opportunity. The newly -designated Inland Port, located in the northwest quadrant of Salt Lake City, will provide further opportunities for industry and job growth. Due to rapid growth, the City needs better east -west connections between residential development and employment centers. DESCRIBE ANY MAJOR CHANGES THAT MAY HAVE AN ECONOMIC IMPACT, SUCH AS PLANNED LOCAL OR REGIONAL PUBLIC OR PRIVATE SECTOR INVESTMENTS OR INITIATIVES THAT HAVE AFFECTED OR MAY AFFECT JOB AND BUSINESS GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES DURING THE PLANNING PERIOD. DESCRIBE ANY NEEDS FOR WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, BUSINESS SUPPORT, OR INFRASTRUCTURE THESE CHANGES MAY CREATE. Salt Lake City International Airport Expansion The expansion of the Salt Lake City International Airport is expected to be completely finished by 2025, but it is anticipated that the first phase will open in September of 2020. The expansion focuses on utilizing new and sustainable practicesthat will increase space, comfort, and convenience for passengers. This includes complete technological and artistic redesign of the current airport which will allow Utah's natural outdoor beauty to be displayed to millions of airport visitors each year. A recent economic impactanalysis conducted by GSBS Consulting projected that the rebuild will inject $5.5 billion into the local economyand create morethan 3,300 jobs.46 Between July 2018 and June 2019, the Salt Lake City International Airport served over 26.2 million passengers and had 341,152 Total Aircraft Ops.47The airport ranks as the 23rd busiest airport in North America and the 85t" busiest in the world with over 340 flights departing daily. It is located about 15 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City and is serviced by a direct light rail line to the downtown area including the Salt Palace Convention Center. The proximity of these create opportunities for training and workforce housing. Inland Port Authority The Inland Port, located in the northwest quadrant of Salt Lake City, covers approximately 16,000 ac res, sits at the intersection of two interstate freeways, major national railways and an international airport. This puts the area in high demand for expanding warehouse, distribution and manufacturing facilities. The Inland Port Authority was created to engage with interested organizations and individuals to establish a strategic plan to maximizethe economic benefits of the Inland Port. 46 GSBS Consulting, Salt Lake City International Airport Redevelopment Program: Economic Impact Analysis, https://www.slcairport.com/assets/pdfDocu ments/The-New-SLC/Airpo rt-ElA-Fin a I-Report.pdf 47 Salt Lake City Department of Airports, Elevations, Summer 2019, https://www.slcairport.com/assets/pdfDocuments/ Elevations-Newsletter/Elevations-Su m mer-Edition-August-2019.pdf 123 Due to these and other large-scale projects and an overwhelming need for more skilled workforce, Salt Lake City Community Col Iegecreateda brand new, cutting edge campus that focuses primarily on building our skilled labor workforce.

HOW DO THE SKILLS AND EDUCATION OF THE CURRENT WORKFORCE CORRESPOND TO EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN THE JURISDICTION? The percentage of residents with at least some higher education is higher than the national average with over 71% of residents reporting they've received some college education. The national average is 60%. As demonstrated in Table MA-45.8, Salt Lake City also has a much higher percentage of residents with bachelor's degrees and graduate degrees than the rest of the nation.

The measure used for underemployment is U-6 which not only measures unemployment, butalso includes those who are willing to work and have recently looked for work, as well as those working part-time but whowant to work full-time. This means this categorization includes current employeeswho feel underutilized in their current employment. The national U-6 rate between the fourth quarter of 2018 and the third quarter of 2019 was 7.3. In Utah, this rate was 5.5% 48 DESCRIBE ANY CURRENT WORKFORCE TRAINING INITIATIVE INCLUDING THOSE SUPPORTED BY WORKFORCE INVESTMENT BOARDS, COMMUNITY COLLEGES AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. DESCRIBE HOW THESE EFFORTS WILL SUPPORT THE JURISDICTION'S CONSOLIDATED PLAN. The 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan emphasizes providing opportunities to help build healthy neighborhoods. This can be supported by efforts and organization with job training initiatives. Salt Lake City already has several community programsthat providejob training. These organizations typicallyassist clients in learning how to search for jobs, write resumes, and interview in addition to key life skillsthat are necessary to be successful in the workplace. By highlighting these initiatives in the Consolidated Plan, the City can assist these programs in increasing their capacity to provide services. Many of these programs focus on assisting vulnerable populations and a few are listed below: 48 U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, https://www.bls.gov/lau/stalt.htm 124 • Advantage Services (non-profitthat employs homeless people with disabilities) • Refugee and Immigration Center - Asian Association of Utah (refugees and immigrants) • The Columbus Foundation (individuals with disabilities) • English Skills Learning Center (teaching English as a 2nd language) • Odyssey House (alcohol and drug rehabilitation) • First Step House (substance use disorders and mental health) DOES YOUR JURISDICTION PARTICIPATE IN A COMPREHENSIVE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY? No, Salt Lake City does not participate in a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy. IF SO, WHAT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES ARE YOU UNDERTAKING THAT MAY BE COORDINATED WITH THE CONSOLIDATED PLAN. IF NOT, DESCRIBE OTHER LOCAL/REGIONAL PLANS OR INITIATIVES THAT IMPACT ECONOMIC GROWTH. Salt Lake City does not currently have a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy; however, the City does have a variety of local plans and initiativesthat impacteconomic growth. In addition to thejob training initiatives listed above, here are a few of the City's plans and projects designed to stimulate economic development: Economic Development Loan Fund The Economic Development Loan Fund (EDLF) is designed to stimulate business development and expansion, create employment opportunities, encourage private investment, promote economic development, and enhance neighborhood vitality and commercial enterprise in Salt Lake City by making loans available to businesses that meet City objectives. Loans are available for: • Startup and existing businesses • Revenue producing non-profit ventures • A business expanding or relocating to Salt Lake City • Energy-efficient(e2) equipment upgrades and building retrofits • Businesses impacted by construction • Construction/tenant improvement and/or real estate acquisition • Signage, retail presentation, and display work • Fixtures, furnishings, equipment and inventory • Working capital and marketing The EDLF fills a gap in economic development by lending to high-tech and manufacturing businessesthat would not otherwise be eligible for a traditional bank loan yet have strong potential for growth. Loans are considered a bridge loan and not meant to be long-term financing. Salt Lake City Emergency Loan Program During the recent COVID-19 crisis, Salt Lake City launched an Emergency Loan Program to assist business with funding to support them through a short-term community crisis. This Program is designed as a bridge to ensure that business can stay afloat including making rent/mortgage payments, keep staff employed, cover utility and ongoing costs during a timeof crisis and significantly decreased revenues. While it is not anticipated that this program will continue in this exactform throughoutthe entire Consolidated Plan, it is importantto note that the City has the ability to react quickly and provide additional resources when necessary. Master Plans 125 Salt Lake City's Master Plans provide an outline of community and economic development goaIsfor specific areas of the City. Planning efforts since2010 include the planning documents: • Central Community o 400 South Livable Communities Project - 2012 • Downtown 0 Downtown Plan — 2016 • East Bench o Existing Conditions Report — 2014 o East Bench Master Plan— 2017 0 Parley's Way Corridor — 2017 • Northwest Community 0 North Temple Boulevard Plan - 2010 • Northwest Quadrant 0 Northwest Quadrant Master Plan — 2016 • Sugar House 0 Sugar House Streetcar Update to Master Plan — 2016 0 Circulation and Streetcar Amenitiesfor Sugar House Business District — 2014 0 2111 and 215t Neighborhood Plan — 2017 0 Sugar House Circulation Plan — 2013 0 Sugar House Phase 2 Alternative Analysis — 2013 • Westside Master Plan 0 Westside Master Plan — 2014 o 9-Line Corridor Master Plan - 2015 Redevelopment Agencygrams The Redevelopment Agency of Salt Lake City (RDA) works to revitalize Salt Lake City's neighborhoods and business districts to improve livability, spark economic growth, and foster authentic communities, serving as a catalyst for strategic development projects that enhancethe City's housing opportunities, commercial vitality, and public spaces. The RDA accomplishes this through the following tools: • Property acquisition, clearance, re -planning, sale, and redevelopment • Planning, financing, and developmentof public improvements • Providing management support and tax increment reimbursementfor projects that will revitalize underutilized areas • Gap financing in the form of loans, grants, and equity participation to encourage private investment • Relocation assistance and business retention assistance to businesses. Improved redevelopment areas contributeto the overall health and vitality of the City by reversing the negative effects of blight, while increasing the tax base from which taxing entities draw their funds. In Salt Lake City, Redevelopment Project Areas' tax bases have historically grown at twice the rate of surrounding areas that are not designated as RDA project areas. National Development Corporation Since 1969, the NDC has carried out its missionto createjobs and promote community development opportunities in economically -disadvantaged neighborhoods. NDC raises equity through its Corporate Equity Fund and invests in affordable housing. NDC also creates jobs in underserved areas through its New Markets Tax Credit Program and through its Small Business Lending Program, NDC Grow America Fund. The City uses the expertise and knowledge of NDC to continueto develop, finance, and market community development and affordable housing. 126 Fa4ade Grant Program The Housing and Neighborhood Development Division utilizes federal funding to support local businesses by offering up to $25,000 in grants to improve their fa�ades.These improvements could include items such as door upgrades, window improvements, paint or stucco updating, installing of garages, security lighting, fascia/soffit work, etc. Increasing the street appeal of small businesses located within the City positively affects the surrounding neighborhoods through increasing the visual appeal of neighboring commercial areas and boosting the economy on a local level. Cit,, T�portation Plans In 2020, the City will update its Transportation Plan which was prepared in 1996. As the Plan unfolds, efforts will continueto be madeto coordinateand leverage resources in low-income neighborhoods. At the currenttime, the City's Transit Master Plan (2017) and the Pedestrian/Bike Master Plan (2015) are the most recent and relevant. The City is currently committing $5.3m to improved bus service, $1.1m for capital investments related to bus service (bus stops, transit hubs, first/last mile improvements such as sidewalks and bike lanes), and $800,000 for a pilot on -demand ride hailing service. This provides an opportunity to leverage CDBG funds in disadvantaged neighborhoods to improve access to transportation and facilitate multimodaI transportation options. At the time the Transit Master Plan was completed, 83% of bus stops did not have shelters or benches, effectively discouraging potential riders. The studyfurther found that accessto transit in Salt Lake City is challenging because of the large blocks and wide streets, as well as lack ofADA improvements and access to stations. Finally, the Transit Master Plan found that the "costof transit is particularly burdensome on large families, youth, and transit -dependent populations— low-income, olderadults, persons with disabilities, and zero car households.1149 The City's anticipates spending $1-2m per year in capital improvement projects such as traffic signal upgrades, safety projects, and bike/pedestrian enhancements. Again, there is the opportunity to provide better access to transportation and leverage fundsfrom several sources. New Market Tax Credits (NMTC) Capital is attracted to eligible communities (wherethe poverty rate is at least 20% or where the median family incomedoes not exceed 80% of the area's median income) by providing private investors with a credit on their federal taxes for investments in qualifying areas. NMTC investors receive a tax credit equal to 39% of the Qualified Equity Investment (QEI) made in a Community Development Entity (CDE) over a 7-year period. MA-50 NEEDS AND MARKET ANALYSIS DISCUSSION ARE THERE AREAS WHERE HOUSEHOLDS WITH MULTIPLE HOUSING PROBLEMS ARE CONCENTRATED? Salt Lake City has neighborhoods that are more likely to have housing units with multiple housing problems. These neighborhoods generally contain an older housing stock occupied by low-income households. Many of these neighborhoods are located in the Central City, Ballpark, Rose Park, Fairpark, Poplar Grove, and Glendale. ARE THERE ANY AREAS IN THE JURISDICTION WHERE RACIAL OR ETHNIC MINORITIES OR LOW-INCOME FAMILIES ARE CONCENTRATED? 49 Salt Lake City Transit Master Plan 2017 Executive Summary 127 In the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan there were three racially/ethnically concentrated areas of poverty (RCAP/ECAP) in Salt Lake County, two of which were in Salt Lake City. The numberof racially/ethnically concentrated areas of poverty in the County has dropped to only one, and this area is locatedjust south of the City's boundaries. An RCAP/ECAP is defined as a census tract with a family poverty rate greater than or equal to 40%, or a family poverty rate greater than or equal to 300% of the metro tract average, and a majority non- white population, measured at greater than 50%. The absence of RCAP/ECAPs does not mean that there aren't areas where there is a substantial concentration of minorities with reportedly low incomes. Most census block groups to the west of 1-15 reported a population composed of more than 50% minorities. These block groups also report some of the lowest incomes in the City as well. Most of these areas are located in the Glendale and Poplar Grove neighborhoods. WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MARKET IN THESE AREAS/NEIGHBORHOODS? The City has been experiencing increasing housing costs and wages have failed to increase at the same rate which can influencethe ability for income mobility. Salt Lake City is focusing efforts to mitigatethe negative externalities of poverty by increasing economic opportunities, improving neighborhood infrastructure, expanding services in distressed neighborhoods, improving the housing stock, and increasing access to public transit and multi -modal transportation options. The City is also making steps to incentivize affordable housing development in opportunity areas in order to expand housing choices through the City. In general, median sales prices and rents are significantly lower in areas of concentrated poverty than in the rest of the City. Households located in neighborhoods on the west side of 1-15, such as Poplar Grove and Glendale have higher homeownership rates than the City average. The Ballpark and Central City neighborhoods have a much higher rental rate than the City average. Other housing market and demographic data points can be found in Table MA-50.1.

Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 2013-2017 American Community Survey 128 These 10 Census tracts identified above as having some of the highest poverty levels in the City are generally located within RDA project areas. ARE THERE ANY COMMUNITY ASSETS IN THESE AREAS/NEIGHBORHOODS? • Education Numerous schools are located in the target area, includingthe Dual Immersion Academy, the City Academy and Salt Lake Arts Academy. The Pete Suazo Business Center is also located in the area. • Health Services There are 23 clinical services/programs offered in Glendale/Poplar Grove, provided by a host of clinics including Donated Dental, Friends for Sight, Concentra Urgent Care, the University of Utah Clinic, First Med and the Glendale/Mountain View Community Learning Center, among others. Eight programs providing health education were found in the neighborhood. These programs are offered through Communidades Unidas, Sunday Anderson Senior Center, Mexican Consulate, Glendale Senior Housing, and the Boys and Girls Club. Atotal of six mental health services were identified in West Salt Lake. Four of the six programs are family and school -based mental health counseling offered through Valley Behavioral Health. • Cultural Arts The Sorenson Unity Center has a theatre and hosts performances within the community. The Utah Cultural Celebration Center has three different opportunities for youth specificallyto enjoy ethnic performances as well as Shakespeare performances. Both venues also have art galleries that are open to the public. Community Centers and Gardens The Hartland Partnership Center is located in the Glendale Neighborhood. This center offers resources such as English language instruction, mental health support, citizenship classes, and employment workshops. There are several community gardens in the target area. These gardens provide an opportunityfor community interaction and allow for households to grow their own produce. Of special note are the International Peace Gardens which presents gardens and festivals from around the world, as well as a Farmer's Market and Seed Swap event. Parks, Recreation and Open Space One of West Salt Lake's greatest assets is the abundanceof parks and open space. Of Glendale and Poplar Grove residents, 83% live within a quarter mileof some form of green space. This is the highest percentage in the City. There are 14 parks, including the notable International Peace Garden, located in these neighborhoods and comprising over 100 acres. All green spaces are managed by Salt Lake City Parks and Public Lands. The Jordan River Parkway offers outdoor boating opportunities. The Jordan River Parkway and 9 Line trails provide recreational opportunities and connectivityto natural environments. They also provide additional community connectivity and transportation options. • Fitness 129 The Glendale/Poplar Grove neighborhoods, located within the target area, offer 77 total health and fitness programs. The largest facility is the Sorenson Multicultural Centerwhich offers a wide variety of youth programs including aquatics. Two fitness centers are targeted for seniors — the Sunday Andersen Senior Center and the Westside Center. Public Transit The TRAX light rail line runs through the Ballpark and Poplar Grove neighborhoods. The light rail also runs within one block of the Central City neighborhood. These transit lines connect these neighborhoods to the rest of the Salt Lake Valley and allow for greater em ployment opportunities. Redevelopment Project Areas Redevelopment project areas coverthe entire target area. This meansthat incrementaltax revenues can be used to improve their respective project areas through a wide variety of projects including but not limited to infrastructure improvements (water, sewer, transportation, etc.), beautification, economic development incentives, fa4ade renovation, grant funds, parks development, signage and wayfinding, etc. Specific objectives identified by the RDA for uses of fundswithin its existing project areas include: o Emphasize transit and connections to multi -modal transportation means o Create high -quality pedestrian environments o Promote infill development o Support high quality, diverse and affordable housing o Support public art in public places o Encourage innovative sustainability practices and limitcarbon emissions o Promote transit -oriented development at key sites located at TRAX stations o Foster growth of small and new businesses o Participate in streetscape enhancements Opportunity, Zones As shown in the map below, a large percentage of the target area is also located in an opportunity zone. Opportunity zones were established under the Investing in Opportunity Act as a way to revitalize economically -distressed communities using private investment. Tax benefits to investors includethe deferral and reduction of tax gains, thereby making these zones more attractive to investors and increasing the potential of leveraging private funds with public investment.

A dependable broadband network provides many benefits. These networks attract businesses, provide social connections, increase educational opportunities, and improvethe quality of lifefor citizens. According to Broadbandnow.com/Utah, 11.6%of Utah residents are underserved by broadband service providers. However, most of these underserved communities are in rural areas of the state and only0.6% Salt Lake County is reportedly underserved. While service is provided to most households in Salt Lake County, thatdoesn't mean all householdscan afford access to the internet. The 2018 ACS 5-year Estimate reported that there were 9,249 households in Salt Lake Citywithout an internet connection. This represents almost 12% of the City's households. A household which doesn't have access to internet services through a broadband connection is at a significant disadvantage economically when seeking new employment and educationally if children or adults in the household are attending school. If these households are also low- or moderate -income households then a lack of internet connection could prove to be one of the largest barriers to economic growth for the household. 131 DESCRIBE THE NEED FOR INCREASED COMPETITION BY HAVING MORE THAN ONE BROADBAND INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER SERVE THE JURISDICTION. Competition is a basic economic principal that states that when there are multiple providers of a service then the prices of that service will be lower as the providers attempt to gain more market share through a more favorable price offered to the consumer. By providing more options, if a consumerfeels they are being charged too much for a service then the consumercan look to an alternative provider. This movement in the market encourages providers to produce services at a competitive rate and protects consumersfrom unfair prices. MA-65 HAZARD MITIGATION- 91.21 0(a) (5), 91.310(a)(2) DESCRIBE THE JURISDICTION'S INCREASED NATURAL HAZARD RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH CLIMATE CHANGE. According to the Salt Lake County Multi -Jurisdictional Multi -Hazard Mitigation Plan the main natural hazards identified and investigated for Salt Lake County include: • Earthquake • Flood • Wildland Fire • Slope Failure • Severe Weather • Dam Failure • Avalanche • Pandemic • Drought • Infestation • Radon • Problem Soils Of these natural hazards, Salt Lake County identified Salt Lake City as being high risk for only earthquakes, floods, and wildfires while being at moderate risk for severe weather. DESCRIBE THE VULNERABILITY TO THESE RISKS OF HOUSING OCCUPIED BY LOW- AND MODERATE -INCOME HOUSEHOLDS BASED ON AN ANALYSIS OF DATA, FINDINGS, AND METHODS. Many low- and moderate -income householdswould suffer a greater financial impactfrom these risks than other households as repairs from earthquake, severe weather, flooding, or wildfires could cause serious financial stress. This negative effect could be compounded if these households could not afford additional insurance coverage. The Salt Lake County Multi -Jurisdictional Multi -Hazard Mitigation Plan identifies areas west of 1-15 as a potential flood risk due to the Jordan River. In the plan, the area directly surrounding the Jordan River State Parkway is listed as a low- to moderate -risk with flood risk increasing at nearer proximityto the river. There is also low -risk of flooding on the west side of the Rose Park neighborhood. These two flood areas are significant because they are areas with low- and moderate -income households. 132 -133 STRATEGIC PLAN The Strategic Plan identifies Salt Lake City's priority needs and describes strategies that the City will undertake to serve priority needs over a five-year period. The plan focuses on building Neighborhoods of Opportunity to promote capacity in low-income neighborhoods and to support the City's most vulnerable populations. SP-05 OVERVIEW The 2020-2024 Strategic Plan is based on an assessment of community needs as identified in this Consolidated Plan, in City planning documents, and on the ability of federal funds to meet the identified needs. Within this context, the 2020-2024 Strategic Plan focuses on building Neighborhoods of Opportunity to promote capacity in low-income neighborhoods and to support the City's mostvulnerable populations. The five-year plan 134 provides a strategy form aximizing and leveraging the City's block grant allocations with other funding sources, including the City's Redevelopment Agency, to build healthy and sustainable communities that connect and expand opportunities for housing, education, transportation, behavioral health services and economic development. Strategic plan goals call for Consolidated Plan fundsto focus on the following: Housing To provide expanded housing options for all economic and demographic segments of Salt Lake City's population while diversifying the housing stock within neighborhoods. • Support housing programsthat address the needs of aging housing stock through targeting rehabilitation efforts and diversifying the housing stock within neighborhoods • Expand housing support for aging residents that ensure accessto continued stable housing • Support affordable housing developmentthat increases the numberand types of units available for income eligible residents • Support programs that provide access to homeownership via down payment assistance, and/or housing subsidy, and/orfinancing • Support rent assistance programs to emphasize stable housing as a primary strategy to prevent and end homelessness • Support programs that provide connection to permanent housing upon exiting behavioral health programs. Support may include, but is not limited to supporting obtaining housing via deposit and rent assistance and barrier elimination to the extent allowable to regulation • Provide housing and essential services for persons with H IV/AIDS Transportation To promote accessibility and affordabiIityof multi modaI transportation options. Improve bus stop amenities as a way to encourage the accessibilityof public transit and enhancethe experience of public transit in target areas Support access to transportation prioritizing very low-income and vulnerable populations Expand and support the installation of bike racks, stations, and amenities as a way to encourage use of alternative modes of transportation in target areas Build Community Resiliency Build resiliency by providing tools to increase economic and/or housing stability. • Provide job training/vocational training programs targeting low-income and vulnerable populations including, but not limited to; chronically homeless; those exiting treatment centers/programs and/or institutions; and persons with disabilities • Economic Development efforts via supporting the improvement and visibility of small businesses through fa4ade improvement programs • Provide economic development support for microenterprise businesses • Direct financial assistance to for -profit businesses • Expand access to early childhood education to set the stage for academic achievement, social development, and changethe cycleof poverty • Promotedigital inclusion through access to digital communication technologies and the internet • Provide support for programs that reduce food insecurity for vulnerable population Homeless Services To expand access supportive programs that help ensure that homelessness is rare, brief, and non -recurring. • Expand support for medical and dental care options for those experiencing homelessness 135 • Provide support for homeless services including Homeless Resource Center Operations and Emergency overflow operations • Provide support for programs providing outreach services to address the needs of those living an unsheltered life • Expand case management support as a wayto connectthose experiencing homelessness with permanent housing and supportive services Behavioral Health To provide support for low-income and vulnerable populations experiencing behavioral health concerns such as substance abuse disorders and mental health challenges. • Expand treatment options, counseling support, and case management for those experiencing behavioral health crisis The City intendsto leverage all potential funding resources to achieve its goals, recognizing the need to maximize participation from a variety of resources. The City has also established specific measurement criteria by which to measure its progress in meeting its goals. SP-10: GEOGRAPHIC PRIORITIES 91.215(a)(1) GEOGRAPHIC AREAS For the 2020-2024 program years, Salt Lake City has designated one local CDBG target area to concentrate and leverage fundingto stimulate comprehensive neighborhood revitalization that expands housing opportunities, economic opportunities and neighborhood livability. Our selected target area corresponds with the City's existing RDA project areas. If the RDA project areas change, the target area will adjust to continueto correspond to the RDA project areas. Throughoutthe duration of this Plan, the CDBG target area will represent any RDA project area. The combined RDA project areas were chosen as the target area for the following reasons: • The RDA areas generally overlap the lower -income areas of the Cityand areas that scored lower on the Opportunity Index. The Opportunity Index measures 16 factors including education, health, environment, social, and economic that indicatethe relative opportunity in various geographic locations. • Tax increment funds are already being generated in RDA areas. While somefunds are currently committed, there is the potential for additional tax increment revenues as new development occurs in these areas. These funds can then be spent within their respective RDA areas for a wide variety of purposes, including housing, beautification, revolving loan funds, public infrastructure, etc. • Most of the RDA areas were established with a required, designated set -aside (usually 10-20%) for housing. This provides an opportunityto leverage other funds with RDA funding. • Some of the redevelopment areas also included a finding of blight which indicates rundown conditions, with poor visual appearance. This is a deterrent to economic development and funding is needed to mitigatethese conditions. • The RDA areas overlap with designated Opportunity Zones and by design will see an increase in private market investments.

GENERAL ALLOCATION PRIORITIES Locally -defined target areas provide an opportunity to maximize impact and align HUD funding with existing investment while simultaneously addressing neighborhoods with the most severe needs. According to HUD standards, a Local Target Area is designated to allow fora locallytargeted approach to the investmentof CDBG and other federal funds. The target area for the 2020-2024 program years has been identified in Figure SP-10.1. CDBG and other federal fundingwill beconcentrated (notlimited)to thetarget area. Neighborhood and community nodes will be identified and targeted to maximize community impact and drive further neighborhood investment. On an annual basis, internal city divisions/departments including the Redevelopment Agency, Salt Lake City Transportation, and Economic Developmentwill strategize if specific areas of the CDBG target area are in need of additional focus/resources as it relates to CDBG eligible projects. This type of flexibility will ensure that the focus within the target area can move around as per the needs of the community. Activitieswill becoordinated 138 and leveraged, and can include an increase of marketing and outreach for housing programs, transportation improvements, and commercial fa4ade improvements. FIGURE SP-10.2 TARGET AREA AND $LC NEIGHBORHOODS Source: Salt Lake City Redevelopment Agency Target Areas The Target Area was identified through an extensive process that analyzed local poverty rates, low- and moderate -income rates, neighborhood conditions, citizen input, and available resources. A recent fair housing equity assessment (May2018) completed by the Kern C. Gardner Policy Institute at the University of Utah states that there is a housing shortage in Utah, with the supply of new homes and existing "for sale" homes falling short of demand. While the impact of higher housing prices is widespread, affecting buyers, sellers, and renters in all income groups, the report concludes that those households below the median income, and particularly low-income households, are disproportionately hurt by higher housing prices. In fact, households with incomes below the median have a 1 in 5 chance of a severe housing cost -burden, paying at least 50% of their incometoward housing, while households with incomes above the median have a 1 i n 130 chance.so so James Wood, Dejan Eskic and D. J. Benway, Gardner Business Review, What Rapidly Rising Prices Mean for Housing Affordability, May 2018. 139 Targeting area resources are necessary to expand opportunity forth e West Side Target Area as well as the impacted RDA Project Areas. The following areaways that investments wiII be realized: • Concentrating resources geographicaIlywiII provide away to help stabilize and improved istressed areas in these neighborhoods. • Connectivity between the target area and other areas of the Salt Lake Valley will reduce transportation costs and reduce financial burdens on households. • Neighborhood and/or community nodeswill be targeted for commercial fa4acle improvements, public transit enhancements and amenities that support non -motorized modes of transit. • Economic development and transportation projects can be located throughoutthe target area. • Housing rehabilitation projects can be located throughout the City, with a focus on the target area. • Support to microenterprises and for -profit businesses can be offered to qualified business across the City, however, additional focus and marketing efforts will occurwithin the target area. In an effort to expand community engagement in the local target area, HAND will reach out to residents, business owners, property owners, community councils, non-profit organizations, and other stakeholders to gather input on housing and community development needs. City departments and divisions will collaborateto leverage resources and efforts within the target area. HAND and the Department of Economic Developmentwill create an inventory of eligible commercial buildings to target for facade improvements and/or interior code deficiencies and will engage property owners and entrepreneurs in outreach efforts. RATIONALE FORTHE PRIORITIES FOR ALLOCATING INVESTMENTS GEOGRAPHICALLY Salt Lake City's Housing and Neighborhood Development Division, along with internal and community stakeholders, identified the target area through an extensive process that included data analysis, identification of opportunities/barriers, a citizen survey, and an evaluation of potential resources. Through this process, the RDA neighborhoods were identified as areas where a concentration of resources would make significant impacts within the community. This approach would also allow for ongoing leveraging of resources and efforts in these areas. Of particular importance is to direct resources to expand opportunity within areas where poverty levels are higher. According to HUD, neighborhoods of concentrated poverty isolate residents from the resources and networks needed to reach their potential and deprive the larger community of the neighborhood's human capital. In another study, it was found that there were significant physical health improvements from reducing concentrated areas of poverty." Opportunity zones are also located within the target area. This affords an opportunityto further leverage private investment within these economically -distressed areas. Opportunity zones attract private capital because of the ability to defer and reduce taxes associated with capital gains. The tax savings that can be realized are significant. Only46 geographic areas in Utah have been designated as opportunity zones by the federal government, making these highly attractive sites. Further, other funding resources, such as low-income housing tax credits (LIHTC) and tax increment can also be realized in these zones, making for extremely competitive investment opportunities in areas that were previously overlooked. Salt Lake City intends to expand opportunity within the target areas to limit intergenerational poverty, increase access to community assets, facilitate upward mobility, and provide safe, affordable housing. 51 Third Way, Moving to Opportunity: The Effects of Concentrated Poverty on the Poor, August 2014. 140 SP-25 PRIORITY NEEDS 90.215(a)(2) Salt Lake City has determined the following priority needs after broad stakeholder outreach and analysis of community needs: TABLE SP-2S.1 PRIORITY NEEDS Priority Need: Homeless Services ..............................................................................................................................................................................

Basis for Relative Priority According to the 2017 ACS data, 45.6% of Salt Lake City renter households and 25.5% of households with a mortgage are cost - burdened, spending over 30% of their monthly income on housing costs. 22.3% of renter households spend over 50% of their monthly income on housing.52Families who are cost- 52 U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2014-2018 5-Year Estimates 142 2 Priority Need: Affordable Housing .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. burdened have limited resources for food, childcare, healthcare, transportation, education, and other basic needs. The Housing Authority of Salt Lake City currently administers Housing Choice (Section 8) vouchers for 3,000 households, with 5,188 households on the waiting list. Countywide there are 15,981 households on a H ousing Choice waiting list. Afamilyon the waiting list can expect to wait 6 years before receiving a Housing Choicevoucher. Between 2000 and 2018, the cost of housing increased significantly for both renters and homeowners. The median contract rent increased by 81.8%and homevalues increased 89.8%. During the sametime period, the median household incomeonly increased by 52.6%. Since incomesdid not keep upwith increases in housing costs, it has becomemore difficultfor residents to buy or rent a home. The homeownership rate decreased from 56.9% in 2000 to 48.4% in 2018.

Of these households, just over 10,000 households are severely cost - burdened, spending more than 50% of their monthly income on housing. These households are at risk of homelessness. Market conditions influencing the production, rehabilitation, and assistance of affordable housing are as follows: Tenant -Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) Incomes are not keeping up with rising rental costs. The median income rose 52.6% between 2000 and 2018 while rent rates increased by81.8% over the sametime period. Based on CBRE's Real Estate Market Outlook 2019, vacancy rates are low (4.0%) placing upward pressure on rents. Strong population growth is also projected to continue, placing additional pressure on rents. Salt Lake County average monthly rents have increased from an average of $1,087 per month in 2017 to $1,153 in 2018. Market conditions have increased demand for Housing Choice vouchers, which currently have a gap of approximately 6,177 units for low-income households. Research also indicates that there is a lack of affordable units in close proximity to service providers to assist at - risk populations with housing and other needs. In addition, there is a need for additional partnerships between affordable housing landlords, property, and social services organizations. TBRA for Non -Homeless Special Needs Low rental vacancy rates and incomes not keeping up with rising rental costs lead to increasing housing cost - burden rates and very high demand for Housing Choicevouchers. There is a gap of approximately 10,000 units for severely cost -burdened households. Funds are also needed for transitioning participants with HOPWA- funded housing to other housing subsidies and affordable housing units in closer proximity to transportation and essential services. There is a need for additional partnerships between affordable housing landlords, property managers, and social service organizations. New Unit Production According to CBRE's Real Estate Market Outlook 2019, "the market continues to expand at an above -average rate, adding a record 7,467 units along the Wasatch Front during 2018 (a growth rate of 4.6%). Approximately 6,244 units were slated for 2019. As rental rates rise, the question of rental affordability is of top concern. Renters coming from more expensive Tier 1 markets will continueto absorb many of these new units, and many locals will not be accustomed to paying higher rates. Rental rates are pushing upward due to a variety of factors including a construction industry stretched thin due to labor supply issues and rising costs. In addition to increasing construction costs, land costs are also rising, thereby driving up rents even further. This results in increasing cost -burden rates, very high demand for Housing Choice (Section 8) vouchers, and a gap of approximately 10,000 units for severely cost -burdened households. There is a need for additional partnerships between affordable housing developers/providers, property managers and social service organizations. Additional affordable units are needed in high -opportunity neighborhoods as well as units in close proximity to transportation and essential services. Rehabilitation Lower interest rates have somewhat improved the cost of construction and home ownershi p. However, many low-income households are still unable to qualify for loans for home ownership or home improvement 146 financing. The share of elderly homeowners is projected to increase as the median age increases in the Salt Lake Valley. Salt Lake City has an older housing stock, with about 30.1% of units built prior to 1940. Older housing stock located in concentrated areas of poverty and RDA project areas are at risk for deterioration. Incomes are not keeping up with rising costs. Affordable units are at risk of being replaced with newer housing stock or that with revitalization the rents will convertto market rate. Stabilization of existing housing in the target area is imperative. Acquisition, Including Preservation According to CBRE's Real Estote MarketOutlook 2079, a robust market performance resulted in a historic$1.4 billion in multifamily sales across the Wasatch Front. Salt Lake City is increasingly viewed as a preferred, Tier 2 market. CAP rates have stayed low, suggesting confidence in the multifamily marketoutlook. The strong rental market -rate rental market shows the increasing need to preserve affordable rentals, as converting substandard rental housing to market -rate can be very desirable for property owners. SP-3S ANTICIPATED RESOURCES 91.215(a)(4), 91.220(c)(1,2) INTRODUCTION Salt Lake City's funding year 2020-2024 CDBG, HOME, ESG, and HOPWA allocations are estimatedto beatotal of $25,000,000 estimating an average of $5,000,000 per year. In addition, Salt Lake City anticipates receiving program incomeof $7.5 million during the same time period, with an estimated average of $1.5 million of program income available to spend each year. HUD allocationswill be utilized to address the growing housing and community development needs within Salt Lake City. However, funding hasdeclined overthe past decade, making it more difficultto address needs and overcome barriers. Over the course of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, Salt Lake Citywill coordinateand leverage HUD allocationsto assist the City's most vulnerable populations, increase self-sufficiency and address needs in the geographic target area.

U 2 O Z O U w w 2 H O EXPLAIN HOW FEDERAL FUNDS WILL LEVERAGE THOSE ADDITIONAL RESOURCES (PRIVATE, STATE, AND LOCAL FUNDS), INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF HOW MATCHING REQUIREMENTS WILL BE SATISFIED: Match Requirements HUD, like many other federal agencies, encourages the recipients of federal moniesto demonstratethat efforts are being madeto strategically leverage additional funds in order to achieve greater results. Leverage is also a way to increase project efficiencies and benefit from economies of scale that often come with combining sources of funding for similaror expanded scopes. • HOME Investment Partnership Program — 25% Match Requirement Salt Lake City will ensure that HOME match requirements are met by utilizing the leveraging capacity of its subrecipients. Funding sources used to meet the HOME match requirements includefederal, state, and local grants; private contributions; private foundations; United Way; local financial institutions; City General Fund; and unrestricted donations. • Emergency Solutions Grant — 100% Match Requirement Salt Lake Citywill ensure that ESG match requirements are met by utilizing the leveraging capacityof its subgrantees. Funding sources used to meet the ESG match requirements includefederal, state, and local grants; private contributions; private foundations; United Way; Continuum ofCarefunding; City General Fund; in -kind match and unrestricted donations. Fund Leveraging Leverage, in the contextof the City'sfour HUD programs, means bringing other local, state, and federal financial resources in order to maximizethe reach and impactof the City's HUD Programs. Resources for leverage includethe following: • Housing Choice Section 8 Vouchers 150 The Housing Authority of Salt Lake City and Housing Connect currently administer Housing Choice (Section 8) vouchers. The City projects the local housing authorities will receive approximately $173.6 million in funding during the plan period to support public housing units. Low -Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Created by the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the LIHTC program gives State and local LIHTC-allocating agencies the equivalent of nearly $8 billion in annual budget authority to issue tax credits for the acquisition, rehabilitation, or new construction of rental housing targeted to lower -income households. Federal 4% and 9% tax credits are a majorfunding source of capital for the construction and rehabilitation of affordable rental homes. In 2019, the Agency allocated $10,900,317 in Federal and State Housing Credits.53At the current funding level, approximately $55 million will be available for low-income homebuyer programs to developers to build or renovate affordable apartment housing products over the course of this Plan. • New Market Tax Credits New Market Tax Credits are an additional tool utilized to attract private capital investment in areas in need of job growth and economic development. RDA Development Funding The RDA has 12 project areas, nine of which are currently collecting tax increment. Tax incrementfunds are required to be reinvested back into the same "project area" from which funds are generated and to contributeto the overall health and vitality of the City. The purpose of an RDA is to reverse the negative effects of blight, while increasing the tax base from which thetaxing entities draw their funds. The RDA generated $33,833,404 in tax increment receipts in 2018. The RDA generally uses a 2% annual growth rate for existing project areas. State legislation governing RDAs require that 20% of tax increment receipts is set aside for the creation or preservation of affordable housing. A portion of those funds can be used in the CDBG Target Area. In addition, in 2019 the following two additional project areas will commence generating tax increment for the RDA: o Stadler Rail CRA: $180,750 o Northwest Quadrant: $18,873 Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund (HTF) Salt Lake City's Housing Trust Fund strives to address the health, safety, and welfare of the City's citizens by providing assistance for affordable and special needs housing within the City. The Trust Fund has a 2019 budget of $7,400,023. Salt Lake City Economic Development Loan Fund (EDLF) The City administers the Economic Development Loan Fund which makes loans to small businesses located in the Cityfor the purpose of stimulating economic development and commercial and industrial diversity by enhancing business opportunities, providing employment and promoting neighborhood revitalization. This fund currently has a cash balance of approximately $4.Om and loans outstanding of $5.6m. • Salt Lake City General Fund 53 https://www.novoco.com/sites/default/files/atoms/files/utah 2019 lihtc awards 2019.pdf 151 The City uses excess general funds for homeless services when such funds are available, and opportunities present themselves. The City has allocated $2.5M of resources for homeless services in fiscal year 2020. • Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund Utah State's Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund is one of the largest affordable housing loan funding tools for affordable housing developers working in Salt Lake City. The loan fund had about $14 million available in fiscal year 2020. • Industrial & Commercial Bank Funding Although it is not possible to estimate how much Community Reinvestment Act funding will be made available locally, there are a large numberof industrial and commercial banks that reside in Salt Lake City and that have requirements to invest in low-income areas. • Continuum of Care Funding The Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness (Continuum of Care) provides approximately $7.8 million of annual funding for local homeless housing and service programs. • Foundations & Other Philanthropic Partners Charitable establishments and philanthropic partners make up a critical part of the funding stream used in the State of Utah. It is estimated that during the Consolidated Plan period, over $100m will be used to support low- and moderate -income residents, with a considerable amountof the funding being used in Salt Lake City. IF APPROPRIATE, DESCRIBE PUBLICLY -OWNED LAND OR PROPERTY LOCATED WITHIN THE JURISDICTION THAT MAY BE USED TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN THE PLAN: Salt Lake City intends to expand affordable housing and economic development opportunities through the redevelopment of City -owned land, strategic land acquisitions, parcel assembly, and disposition. As per City ordinance, Housing and Neighborhood Development Division will work collaboratively with other City divisions that oversee or control parcels that are owned by the City to evaluate the appropriateness for affordable housing opportunities. DISCUSSION: Salt Lake Citywill continueto seek other federal, state, and private fundsto leverage entitlement grant funding. The City has already shown its commitmentto leveraging funding through the selection of the target area which matchesthe current RDA areas. In addition, the Citywill support the proposed community development initiatives outlined in this Plan through strategic initiatives, policies, and programs.

By working closely with governmental partners and private organizations, Salt Lake City is able to carry out an institutional delivery structure that emphasizes collaboration and resource leveraging. Public services for Salt Lake City's homeless and extremely low-income population are delivered through a network of integrated public -private partnerships. Coordination meetings are regularly held to manage service delivery for individuals and families that have multiple and complex problems that require comprehensive services form more than one organization. Coordination meetings are also utilized to streamline services and prevent the duplication of efforts. A significant institutional delivery barrier is that financial resources limitthe amount of services provided in the community. Many service providers have long wait lists. Salt Lake City is working with community partnersto prioritize and restructure services to utilize funding resources more effectively.

Fourth Street Clinic, dba Wasatch Homeless Healthcare, is an AAAHC Patient Centered Medical Home that provides coordinated medical, mental health, substance abuse, case management, dental, and pharmacy services. It provides the primary medical services to the homeless community. Other organizations such as Donated Dental provide complimentary services. In 1985, the Utah Department of Health reported a total of 17 persons living with AIDS in Utah. At that time, the state and most citizens were unprepared to address the HIV/AIDS issue. The need for public information and for assistance for persons living with HIV/AIDS forced a community -based response, which ultimately became the Utah AIDS Foundation (UAF). Today, a two -fold approach of direct client services and targeted prevention education still comprises the basis for all UAF programming. UAF works with Clinic 1A to ensure that those diagnosed with HIV/AIDS are connected to medical case management, housing case management, employment opportunities, and other services. Valley Behavioral Health, formerly known as Valley Mental Health, provides services to all residents in Salt Lake County (including thosewho are experiencing homelessness) that experience serious mental illnesses, substance use disorders and behavioral problems. Valley Behavioral Health operates Safe Haven and Salt Lake Valley Storefront. Located at 550 W 700 S Salt Lake City, Safe Haven is a permanent supportive housing program for those that meet Valley Behavioral Health's client criteria. Salt Lake Valley Storefront is a day center at Safe Haven and is solely for those experiencing serious mental illnesses. 156 The State of Utah's Department of Workforce Services has an employment center co -located at the Weigand Day Center. This offers those using services on Rio Grande or meals at St. Vincent DePaul's Dining Hall, a chanceto connectwith employment without traveling. Founded in 1958, First Step House is a co-occurring capable, behavioral health treatment and housing provider. First Step is a Joint Commission -accredited organization and is a consistent leader in the Salt Lake metro area delivering evidence -based interventions and achieving positive outcomesfor individuals, Veterans, and families experiencing substance use disorders, homelessness, mental health conditions, justice system involvement, and primary health concerns. First Step operates two residential treatment facilities, two outpatient treatment centers, and six transitional housing facilities in Salt Lake County. The scopeof services includes substance use disorder, criminogenic, and mental health assessment and referral, residential and outpatient treatment, recovery residence services, transitional housing, case management, employment support, primary health care, peer support services, and long-term recovery management. Odyssey House of Utah focuses on addiction recovery services through both in -patient and out -patient programs. Programs are available for both adults and teens. Other programs serving our community include Volunteers of America Cornerstone, which provides substance use treatment for low-income and homeless individuals. In addition, Volunteers of America has two detox programs including Adult Detox and Center for Women and Children. Both serve low-income, homeless individuals or families. 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. Homeless services organizations within the Salt Lake and Tooele Counties Continuum ofCarework diligently to coordinate services and placepeople in housing. Local organizations participate in HMIS, managed by the State of Utah. Through H MIS, service providers are able to view other services their clients access and coordinate on a client -by -client basis. The local CoC also uses the VI-SPDAT (Vulnerability Index — Service Prioritization Decision Assistance Tool) form in the annual Point -in -Time count. By using the VI-SPDAT at first contact, the clients can be connected to services quickerand receive help sooner. However, there are always improvements that can be made in coordinating activities. Meetings with stakeholders revealed concernsthat case management loads were too large and that reductions were necessary for better coordination and provision of services. So, while coordination occurs, there is often a high level of demand for services in comparison to the availability of needed treatment and services. 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 Salt Lake and Tooele Counties Continuum of Care continues to implement coordinated access based on the VI-SPADT form. Salt Lake County is leading efforts to coordinate services for the homeless with the end goal of providing homeless services as seamlessly as possible. 157 SP-4S: GOALS Inconsideration of priority needs and anticipated resources, Salt Lake City has defined the following five-year goals. - TABLE SP-45.1 GOALS, PRIORITY NEEDS AND OUTCOME INDICATORS Goal Start End Geograp Priority Needs Sort Order Goal Category Funding Outcome Year Year hicArea Addressed Indicator 1 - Housing Expand housing 2020 2024 Affordable Citywide Affordable CDBG $ 6,000,000 5075 options Housing Housing ESG $343,750 Households HOME $2,500,000 assisted HOPWA $1,940,000 2— Improve access 2020 2024 Transportation Target Transportation CDBG $4,000,000 100,300 Transportation to Areas/Cit Households transportation y Wide assisted 3—Community Increase 2020 2024 Economic Target Community CDBG$1,250,000 325 Resiliency economic Development/Pu Areas/Cit Resiliency Individuals or and/or housing blic Services y Wide businesses sta bility assisted 4— Homeless Ensure that 2020 2024 Public Citywide Homeless CDBG $1,000,000 2050 Persons Services homelessness is Services/Homele Services ESG $825,000 assisted brief, rare, and ss Services non -recurring 5— Behavioral Support 2020 2024 Public Citywide Behavioral CDBG $500,000 400 Health vulnerable Services/Behavio Health households populations raI Health assisted experiencing substance abuse and mental health challenges 6— Administration 2020 2024 Administration Citywide Administration CDBG $3,200,000 N/A Administration ESG $103,125 HOME HOPWA $60,000 TABLE SP-45.2 GOAL DESCRIPTIONS Goal Name Goal Description 1 Housing To provide expanded housing options for all economic and demographic segments of Salt Lake City's population whiled iversifyingthe housing stock within neighborhoods. • Support housing programs that address the needsof aging housing stockthrough targeted rehabilitation effortsand diversifying the housing stock within the neighborhoods • Support affordable housing developmentthat increasesthe number and types of units available for qualified residents • Support programsthat provideaccessto homeownership • Support rent assistance programs to emphasize stable housing as a primary strategyto prevent and/or end homelessness 158 Goal Name Goal Description • Support programs that provide connection to permanent housing upon exiting behavioral health programs • Provide housing and essential supportive services to persons with HIV/AIDS 2 Transportation To promote accessibility and affordabilityof multimodal transportation options. • Within eligible targetareas, improve bus stop amenities as a wayto encourage the accessibilityof publictransit and enhancethe experience of publictransit • Within eligible targetareas, expand and supportthe installation of bike racks, stations, and amenities as a wayto encourage use of alternative modes of transportation • Support access to transportation,prioritizingverylow -income and vulnerable populations 3 Community Resiliency Provide tools to increase economic and/or housing stability • Supportjob training and vocational rehabilitation programs that increase economic mobility • Improve visual and physical appearance of deteriorating commercial buildings -limited toCDBG Target Area • Provide economic development support for microenterprise businesses • Direct financial assistance to for -profit businesses • Expand access to early childhood education to set the stage for academic achievement, social development, and change the cycle of poverty • Promote digital inclusion through access to digital communication technologies andthe internet • Provide su pport for programs that reduce food insecurityfor vulnerable population 4 Homeless Services To expand access to supportive programs that help ensure that homelessness is rare, brief, and non -recurring • Expand supportfor medical and dental care options for those experiencing homelessness • Provide support for homeless services including Homeless Resource Center Operations and EmergencyOverf low Operations • Provide support for programs undertaking outreach services to address the needs of those living an unsheltered life • Expand case management support as a wayto connectthose experiencing homelessness with permanent housing and supportive services 5 Behavioral Health To provide support for low-income and vulnerable populations experiencing behavioral health concerns such as substance abuse disordersand mental health challenges. • Expand treatment options, counseling support, and case management for those experiencing behavioral health crisis 6 Administration To supportthe administration, coordination and management of Salt Lake Cit 's CDBG, ESG, HOME, and HOPWA programs.

A memberof the Resident Advisory Board is appointed to the Housing Authority's Board of Commissioners. IS THE PUBLIC HOUSING AGENCY DESIGNATED AS TROUBLED UNDER 24 CFR PART 902? No. The Housing Authority of the County of Salt Lake and the Housing Authority of Salt Lake City are both designated as high performers. SP-55: STRATEGIC PLAN BARRIERS TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING 91.215(h) As discussed in detail in section MA-40, the most critical public policy barriers (direct and indirect) to the production and preservation of affordable housing include the following: Economic Conditions • Housing costs have risen more quicklythan incomes over the past 10 years • Transportation costs are significantly higher in some neighborhoods than others due to a disparity in the availability of transit and distance from employment centers Land Regulations and Permitting Process • Salt Lake City'sZoning Ordinance (similarto other cities) contains regulations that establish standards for residential development including minimum lot size, density, unit size, height, setback, and parking standards. Some of these regulations can inhibitthe ability for affordable housing development feasibility (i.e., profitability), including the following: o Density limitations o Lackof multifamily zoning o Stringent parking requirements (reducing cost feasibility) 160 The process to waive/reduce impactfees for affordable housing is reportedly difficult to navigate for some developers Permitting and environmental review processes are often time consuming and reduce possible profits for developers, thereby discouraging development and/or encouraging developmentof higher -margin product (i.e., market -rate units) Land Costs • High land costs in certain areas do not allow for adequate profit in the developmentof lower -income housing product, particularly in desirable neighborhoods that have experienced growth and new construction over the past decade. Most affordable land is located on the west side of Salt Lake City, furthering the concentration of affordable housing in select areas, and inhibiting the dispersal of housing options throughout the city Land costs restrict the abilityto place affordable housing in closer proximity to necessary services, particularly near transit options and employment centers. Consequently, new housing often is constructed in areas that result in high percentages of income being spent towards transportation. Ultimately, these developments further increase traffic issues Construction Costs • Construction costs, particularly labor costs, have experienced notable fluctuations in the recent past. This has caused upward pressure on rents, and limited whattype of product developers are able to provide. Consequently, the profit margin in providing affordable housing is typically limited, or altogether non-existent without the presence of incentives and tax credits • Rehabilitation of existing product has increased in cost due to overall labor shortages. Furthermore, the gained value of improvements is often not more than the costs of construction, resulting in limited or no profit for undertaking such renovation. This limits the desire to undertake such endeavors unless incentives can be provided Development and Rehabilitation Financing • Affordable housing projects with complex layered finance structures can experience increased land holding costs because of additional due diligenceand longer timelines. This is partially alleviated with City incentive programs that reduce some financing pressures • There is strong competition for local funding tools, such as the State of Utah's Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund Neighborhood Market Conditions • Negative public perception and community opposition ("NIMBYism") can limit affordable housing developmentwhen a zoning approval process is required • Some neighborhoods that have access to transit options do not have the appeal for large-scale housing developments, due primarily to low -quality surrounding improvements, higher crime rates, and limited employment diversity The City's recently completed Growing Salt Lake City: A Five -Year Housing Plan 2018-2022 provides the following goals to remove barriers to affordable housing: Goal 1: Reform City practicesto promote a responsive, affordable, high -opportunity housing market • Includes reforming City practices, such as land use and zoning regulations, as well as impediments in City processes Goal 2: Increase housing opportunities for cost -burdened households 161 Prioritizes stabilizing very low-income renters, the development of more affordable units and increased homeownership opportunities Goal 3: Build a more equitable city • Eliminate incidences of housing discrimination and promote a diversity of housing throughout all areas of the City Other strategies employed by the City includethe following: Homeless Strategies Coordinating with local service providers, municipalities, State of Utah, Continuum of Care, and others through the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness in an effort to create a system by which resources, services, data collection, and analysis results incoordination among all stakeholders. Growing SLC: A Five -Year Plan The City has formally adopted a new housing plan that will begin to address many of the barriers listed above and catalyze partners in the city and region to focus on the current housing crisis. The plan provides an assessment of citywide housing needs, with emphasis on the availability and affordability of housing, housing needs for changing demographics, and neighborhood -specific needs. The updated plan will serve as a five-year policy guide to address housing needs across the economic and demographic spectrum of Salt Lake City's current and future residents. Affordable Housing Initiative The City is committed to providing a comprehensive housing initiative to address Salt Lake City's lack of housing options affordable to low-wageworkers and moderate -income families, personswith disabilities and those on fixed incomes. By utilizing the Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund and other community resources, the Citywill support the preservation, development, and rental assistance of housing units over the time period of the Consolidated Plan. The initiativewill target these forms of assistance to extremely low-income renter households as well as expanding homeownership and housing opportunities for low- to middle -income families and individuals. Community Land Trust Salt Lake City has launched a Community Land Trust (CLT) that will allow donated and trusted land to maintain perpetual affordability whileensuring the structure on the land, the home, is purchased, owned, and sold over time to income -qualifying households,just as any other home would be. By holding the land itself in the trust, the land effectively receives a write down each timethe home is sold, insulating the property for growing land costs but still allowing equity to be built by the homeowner. Blue Ribbon Commission This commission wastasked with identifying howthe City can fund and produce 1,000 units of affordable housing throughout Salt Lake City. This commission has since been sun-setted, but the efforts of creating affordable housingthrough the mechanisms identified continueto moveforward. Welcome HomeSalt Lake City Salt Lake City initiated a new homeownership program, Welcome Home SLC, which is aimed at increasing housing options for low- and moderate -income households. Itwill help stabilize communities, provide incentive for neighborhood investments, and allow familiesto build wealth. Leverage Public Land Promote affordable housing development by leveraging public resources with private investments. Potential tools includethe following: 162 • Development of affordable housing on publicly -owned land • Utilize proceeds form development of publicly -owned land to fund affordable housing • Create a policy for prioritizing affordable housing uses when disposing of public land. Impact Fee Exemption The City's recently completed Growing SLC:A Five -Year Housing Plan, 2018-2022 recommends that impact fees could be reduced by a decision -making body that reviews project transactions and that could only be accessed by developers who committo a percentage of units at a specific level of affordability. Funding Our Future In 2018, the City Council approved a 0.5% sales tax increase to address several important issues within the City including transportation, housing, infrastructure, and public safety. This is estimated to provide an estimated $5 million additional sales tax revenues to support housing needs each year. Revenues may be shared between development efforts and supporting affordable housing program efforts. Redevelopment Agency Salt Lake City's Redevelopment Agency committed $17 million to address affordable housing efforts, with a third of that targeted to areas where the City has experienced high land costs. SLC Housing Trust Fund The Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund was created in 2000 to provide financial assistance to support the development and preservation of affordable and special needs housing in Salt Lake City. Eligible activities include acquisition, new construction, and rehabilitation of both multifamily rental properties and single-family homeownership. Additional assistance relating to housing for eligible households also may include project or tenant -based rental assistance, down payment assistance and technical assistance. Applications for funding can be accepted year-round and are approved through a citizen's advisory board, the Mayor and the City Council. Funding Targeting The Housing and Neighborhood Development Division continually evaluates ways to coordinate and target affordable housing subsidies more effectively, including: • Coordinate local funding sources — Olene Walker, SLC Housing Trust Fund, County partnerships • Target soft money to housing units affordable to households with lower AMIs • Target soft money with low or no interest loans. Policies Salt Lake City will work to remove or ameliorate public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing through the following efforts: • Affordable Housing Development Incentives: Zoning and fee waiver incentiveswill be implemented and/or strengthened, includingthefollowing: • Refine the Impact Fee Exemption Ordinanceto improve user friendliness and refine the range of application. • Evaluate the accessory dwelling unit ordinance for a broader range of application. • Evaluate the transit station area zoning district regulations for a broader range of affordability requirements and potentially expand the use of that zone. • Evaluate the feasibility of density bonuses and other development incentives for affordable housing development and preservation, specifically in Historic Landmark Districts where it is particularly difficult to add housing. • Review the City's Fee Scheduleto eliminate added fees for developers of affordable housing. • Review the City's Housing Loss Mitigation ordinance to ensure that the city's stock of inexpensive housing isn't rapidly being replaced by more expensive units. 163 Leverage Public Resources for Affordable Housing Development: Public resources, including City - owned land, will be leveraged with private resources for affordable housing development. Funding Targeting: The Housing and Neighborhood Development Division is evaluating ways to coordinate and target affordable housing subsidies more effectively, to includethe coordination of local funding sources (Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund, Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund, Salt Lake County funding, etc). Utilize the Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund: Funding is focused on acquisition, new construction, and rehabilitation of both multifamily rental properties and single-family homeownership. Additional assistance relating to housing for eligible households also may include project or tenant based rental assistance, down payment assistance and technical assistance. The City has been very successful in spending down the Trust's funds over FY17-18 and is resulting in an increased numberof affordable units being built in the city. Applications for funding can be accepted year-round and are approved through a citizen's advisory board, the Mayor and the City Council. Implement Fair Housing Action Items: Salt Lake Citywill workto remove and/or ameliorate housing impediments for protected classes through action items as identified in the City's2015- 2019 Fair Housing Action Plan. Utilize Federal Funding to Expand Affordable Housing Opportunities: Utilize CDBG, ESG, HOME, and HOPWA funding to expand housing opportunity through homeowner rehabilitation, emergency home repair, acquisition/rehabilitation, directfinancial assistance, tenant -based rental assistance, project - based rental assistance, and rapid re -housing. In addition to the Action Items listed above, the City aimsto tackle some of the larger problems behind the lack of affordable housing— mainlythe lack of a living wage. One way the City is addressing this issue is through strategic targeting of its CDBG funds to programs that provide job training for vulnerable populations or to organizations that create economic development opportunities. SP-60: HOMELESS STRATEGY 91.215(h) REACHING OUT TO HOMELESS PERSONS (ESPECIALLY UNSHELTERED PERSONS) AND ASSESSING THEIR INDIVIDUAL NEEDS. Salt Lake City's primary homeless services goal is to help homeless individuals and families get off the street and eventually into permanent housing. In the short term, Salt Lake Citywill continueto provide collaborative services to the homeless population. Salt Lake City recognizes that not every homeless individual is alike and because of that, there is no one size fits all solution. There are groups of chronic homeless individuals, veterans, families, women with children, youth, and homeless -by -choice in the greater community. Each of these groups has different needs and each stage of homelessness must also be considered. The four stages of homelessness are prevention (keeping people from dropping into homelessness with jobs and affordable housing), homelessness (helping with daily needs — lockers, showers, etc.), transcending homelessness (finding housing, employment), preventing recurrence (offering supportive services to housing). If the four stages are not considered for each group, efforts will eventually be unsuccessful. Personalized one-on-one outreach to homeless individuals providing information about the specific services that individual needs (e.g., housing, mental health treatment, a hot meal) is the most effective outreach approach. Salt Lake Cityworks regularly with various community partners that provide outreach and assessment of individuals experiencing homelessness including Catholic Community Services; Volunteers of America, Utah; the Department of Veterans Affairs; The Road Home and others. In 2016, Salt Lake City opened the Community Connection Center (CCC) located in the primary homeless services area of the City. The CCC operates as a drop - in center and em ploys social workers that assess individuals' needs and help connect people with available 164 housing and supportive services. The CCC has been successful in filling the need for additional homeless outreach and case management services in the City. The Salt Lake City Police Department (SLCPD) is also beginning a new pilot program. When available, while responding on a call with a person experiencing homelessness, SLCPD will bring with them a social worker to engage with the client and help assess their service needs and connectthem to services. ADDRESSING THE EMERGENCY SHELTER AND TRANSITIONAL HOUSING NEEDS OF HOMELESS PERSONS. Starting with the State of Utah's Ten -Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness, mosteffortsto deal with homelessness in Utah rely on the Housing First model. Although the ten- year plan has sunset, the programs and direction are still being implemented throughout the State. The premise of Housing First is that once homeless individuals have housing, they are more likelyto seek and continue receiving services and can search for employment. The Housing First model has been effective in Salt Lake City, though meeting the varied housing needs of this population can be challenging. The homeless housing market needs more permanent supportive housing, housing vouchers, affordable non -supportive housing, and housing located near transit and services. Salt Lake City is working towards new solutions in these areas as outlined in the City's newly - adopted housing plan, Growing SLC. There is a continued need for day services to meet the basic needs of persons experiencing homelessness. Needed daytimeservices include bathrooms, laundry, safe storage for their life's belongings, mail receipt, and an indoor area to "hang out." Salt Lake Cityaddresses these issues by supporting shelters, day services, and providing a free storage program. Furthermore, Salt Lake City has constructed two new homeless resource centers that will provide emergency shelter and housing -focused supportive services. This shift in how homeless services are provided will help the community realize our goal that homelessness is rare, brief, and non -recurring. Moving forward, Salt Lake Citywill aim to assist homeless persons makethe transition to permanent housing, including shortening the period of timethat 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 plays an important role by providing strategic funding for the valuable efforts undertaken by other stakeholders and, at times, filling in gaps in essential services. The City can also lend its voice and political weight to lobby for changes in policy, regulation, and statutes as needed to facilitate comprehensive and effective approach to addressing homelessness and related issues. Salt Lake City's newly adopted housing plan, Growing SLC, includes efforts to provide affordable housing options along the spectrum of housing including permanent supportive housing, transition in place, tenant based rental assistance, and affordable non -supportive housing. Shelter the Homeless, Collective Impactto End Homelessness Steering Committee, and the Salt Lake City Continuum of Carevoted in support of merging these two entities into a new homeless system structure called the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness. This Coalition's primary goals are to prevent and end homelessness in the Salt Lake Valley through a system -wide commitment of resources, services, data collection, analysis and coordination among all stakeholders. Salt Lake City staff play a key role in assisting this effort as it moves forward. HELPING HOMELESS PERSONS (ESPECIALLY CHRONICALLY HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES, FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN, VETERANS AND THEIR FAMILIES, AND 165 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. Salt Lake City and its service partners work with homeless individuals to help them successfully transition from living on the streets or shelters and into permanent housing or independent living. The Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness's primary goals are to prevent and end homelessness in Salt Lake Valley through a system -wide commitment of resources, services, data collection, analysis, and coordination among all stakeholders. Salt Lake City staff play a key role in assisting this effort as it moves forward. The City's recently completed Growing Salt Lake City.•A Five -Year Housing Plan 2078-2022 provides the following goals to remove barriers to affordable housing: Goal 1: Reform City practicesto promote a responsive, affordable, high -opportunity housing market • Includes reforming City practices, such as land use and zoning regulations, as well as impediments in City processes Goal 2: Increase housing opportunities for cost -burdened households • Prioritizes stabilizing very low-income renters, the development of more affordable units and increased homeownership opportunities Goal 3: Build a more equitable city • Eliminate incidences of housing discrimination and promote a diversity of housing throughout all areas of the City Coupling along with Growing SaltLake City, in 2018 City Council and the Mayor increased the sales tax by .S% in an effort to create funding streams to address several critical needs within the City. Oncesuch need is affordable housing. Through this mechanism, it is anticipated that over $2m of funding will be available each year to support low-income individuals and families access to affordable housing. Among other housing needs, fundswill be used to support access of permanent housing opportunities for those that are exiting homelessness or at risk of becoming homeless. 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 City's recently completed Growing Salt Lake City: A Five -Year Housing Plan 2018-2022 provides the following goals to remove barriers to affordable housing: Goal 1: Reform City practicesto promote a responsive, affordable, high -opportunity housing market 166 Includes reforming City practices, such as land use and zoning regulations, as well as impediments in City processes Goal 2: Increase housing opportunities for cost -burdened households • Prioritizes stabilizing very low-income renters, the development of more affordable units and increased homeownership opportunities Goal 3: Build a more equitable city • Eliminate incidences of housing discrimination and promote a diversity of housing throughout all areas of the City Coupling along with Growing Sa(tLake City, in 2018 City Council and the Mayor increased the sales tax by .5% in an effort to create funding streams to address several critical needs within the City. Oncesuch need is affordable housing. Through this mechanism, it is anticipated that over $2m of funding through Funding Our Future will be available each year to support low-income individuals and familiesaccess affordable housing. Among other needs, funds will be used to identify and support households that are at risk of losing housing due to a variety of reason, including but not limited to eviction for non-payment, thosethat are precariously housed, those that are in fact at risk of becoming homeless, but do not meet HUD's definition of homeless, or that are in ajudicial process in which mitigation and resolution is possible. Salt Lake City, along with other organizations in the Salt Lake Continuum of Care, workto prevent and divert individualsand familiesfrom experiencing homelessness. Salt Lake City, Salt Lake Countyand the State of Utah all provide funding to Utah Community Action forshort-term rental assistance to families at risk of falling into homelessness. Salt Lake City is reducing and ending homelessness in the community through strong collaborations with partner organizations throughout the Salt Lake Continuum of Care. Salt Lake Cityworks closely with Salt Lake County, the State of Utah and service providers to stop familiesfrom dropping into homelessness, reduce the length of time individuals and families experience homelessness, help individuals and families successfully transition out of homelessness, and keep individuals and familiesfrom rescinding back into homelessness. The Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness's primary goals are to prevent and end homelessness in Salt Lake Valley through a system -wide commitment of resources, services, data collection, analysisand coordination among all stakeholders. Salt Lake City staff play a key role in assisting this effort as it moves forward. SP-65: LEAD -BASED PAINT HAZARDS 91.215(i) Because a high percentage of the housing units in Salt Lake City were built before 1978, outreach and education efforts about lead -based paint must continue. As such, the City has implemented a plan to address lead issues in our residential rehabilitation projects. The City's Housing Rehabilitation Program is in compliance with HUD's rules concerning identification and treatment of lead hazards. During the 2018-2019 program year, Salt Lake Cityworked in conjunction with ourpartners on the state and county levels to educate the public on the dangers posed by lead based paint, including the following: • Undertake outreach efforts through direct mailings, the Salt Lake City website, various fairs and public events, and the local community councils. • Provide materials in Spanish to increase lead -based paint hazard awareness in minority communities. Partner with Salt Lake County's Lead Safe Salt Lake program to treat lead hazards in the homes of children identified as having elevated blood levels. Emphasize lead hazards in our initial contacts with homeowners needing rehabilitation. 167 • Work with community partners to encourage local contractors to obtain worker certifications for their employees and sub -contractors. HOW ARE THE ACTIONS LISTED ABOVE RELATED TO THE EXTENT OF LEAD POISONING AND HAZARDS? Our efforts over the last five years have resulted in a significant increase in the numberof children being tested for elevated blood -lead levels. This has been made possible through improvements in testing technologywhich has allowed the Cityto better detect and protect children and their family memberswho might be living in a hazardous environment. The percentage of children testing positive has continued to remain below 1% despite the action level for blood -lead levels has been reduced from 10 mcg/dl to 5 mcg/dl. Through our rehabilitation and outreach efforts, we hope to continueto maintain these low testing levels and continueto protect our children from dangerous living conditions. HOW ARE THE ACTIONS LISTED ABOVE INTEGRATED INTO HOUSING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES? The abatement of lead in Salt Lake City's existing housing stock is an important component of addressing fair housing impedimentsfor low-income families with children. It is a policy of Salt Lake City's Housing Rehabilitation program, as well as other housing programs funded through the City'sfederal entitlement block grants, to employsafe work practices when working to identify and abate lead -based paint in households. SP-70: ANTI -POVERTY STRATEGY 91.2150) JURISDICTION GOALS, PROGRAMS, AND POLICIES FOR REDUCING THE NUMBER OF POVERTY -LEVEL FAMILIES Similar to cities across the country, Salt Lake City is faced with growing income inequality and mustaddress poverty in our community. The limited incomes of many Salt Lake City residents have left them with insufficient meansto meet an adequate standard of living — especially in light of the massive increase in housing, transportation, health care, and many other critical need costs. In a strategic effort to reduce the numberof households living in poverty and prevent householdsfrom falling into poverty, Salt Lake City is focusing on a multi -pronged approach: 1. Identify strategic opportunities to build capacity, prevent displacement, and expand resources within the target area that align with other large-scale community investment. 2. Support the City's mostvulnerable populations, including the chronically homeless, homeless individuals and families, those facing behavioral health concerns, persons living with HIV/AIDS, disabled, and the low-income elderly. The City's anti -poverty strategy aims to close the gap in a number of socioeconomic indicators, such as improving housing affordability, stabilizing householdsthat may be at risk of losing their housing, deploy anti - displacement strategies, increase employment skills of at -risk adults, access to transportation for low-income households, and support behavioral health programs. Efforts will focus on the following objectives: W. • Assist low-income individuaIstomax imizetheirincomes. • Expand housing opportunities. • Ensure that vulnerable populations have access to supportive services. • Evaluate the use of anti-displacementstrategies and access to high opportunity areas. • Increase access to public transit systems for vulnerable populations. Federal entitlement funds allocated through this Consolidated Plan will support the City'santi-poverty strategy through the following: • Provide job/vocational training for vulnerable populations. • Provide essential supportive services for vulnerable populations. • Provide housing rehabilitation for low-income homeowners. • Expand affordable housing opportunities. • Improve neighborhood/commercial infrastructure in target areas. • Provide transportation amenitiesthat support multi -modal transportation. • Increase access to public transit systems for vulnerable popu lations. HOW ARE THE JURISDICTION'S POVERTY REDUCING GOALS, PROGRAMS, AND POLICIES COORDINATED WITH THIS AFFORDABLE HOUSING PLAN: Anti -poverty efforts outlined in this plan will be leveraged with other City plans, programs, initiatives and resources to undertake a comprehensive approach to reduce the occurrence of poverty within Salt Lake City. City programs and initiatives that support anti -poverty efforts include, but are not limited to, the following: • Growing SLC: A Five -Year Housing Plan 2018-2022 • Affordable Housing Rehabilitation and Development • Rental Assistance Programs • Direct Financial Assistance Programs • Economic Development Loan Fund SP-80: MONITORING 91.230 DESCRIBE THE STANDARDS AND PROCEDURES THAT THE JURISDICTION WILL USE TO MONITOR ACTIVITIES CARRIED OUT IN FURTHERANCE OF THE PLAN AND WILL USE TO ENSURE LONG-TERM COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS OF THE PROGRAMS INVOLVED, INCLUDING MINORITY BUSINESS OUTREACH AND THE COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING REQUIREMENTS. To ensure compliancefrom the start of a project or program, the Housing and Neighborhood Development (HAND) Division uses the application process to start the monitoring process of all agencies. Each application must go through an extensive review process that includes a risk analysis of proposed activities and ensures that each applicant meets a national objectiveand that the organizational goals are aligned with the goals identified in the City's Consolidated Plan. Once the applications pass the initial review, each application is taken through an extensive public process, with the final funding decisions being made by our City Council. Atthat time, contracts are drawn up that identify governing regulations, scope of work, budgets and any other Federal requirements and local requirements of the grant. Once fully executed contracts are in place, HAND's Capital Planning staff are responsible for 169 monitoring the agencies through the life of the contract. The agencies are monitored for compliance with the program regulations as well as the content found in the City contracts. To ensure sub -grantees are aware of program requirements, each agency that was awarded funds received an invitation to attend a mandatory grant training seminar. This seminar allows HAND staff to reiterate Federal regulations, provide guidance on changes for the upcoming grant year, identify Federal funding concerns, and review expectations of the agencies. The City requires that at least one attendee from each agency cometo the training. Each person attending the training seminar receives a handbookthat contains important information including contacts, website links, timelines, and a list of documents that are required to be submitted to the City annually. Agencies that were unable to attend do have the ability to receive training documents if they contact the City. The City operates all CDBG, ESG, HOME and HOPWA grants on a reimbursement basis. This ensures that desk reviews, an important part of monitoring, can be completed before federal funds are utilized for any program or project. A desk review was completed for every reimbursement request. This allowed HAND staff to ensure that all requirements of the contract and federal regulations were actively being met prior to disbursing any funds or drawing funds from HUD's Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS). The IDIS system also helps to assist with program/projecteligibiIity requirements, track spending rates and report performance measurements. During the program year, the HAND staff works together with sub -grantees to ensure Federal regulations are followed. This ensures consistent communication between staff and agencies and reduces confusion. Through the use of a Risk Analysis, coupled with reporting mechanisms, the Division Director and HAND staff are able to determine which agencieswould benefit from a technical training session, and which agencies need to have an on -site monitoring visit. The agencies that score highest typically have a monitoring visit during the following program year. As per Federal regulations, select agencies from each program (CDBG, ESG, HOME & HOPWA) are monitored on an annual basis. Because it is a HAND policythat each reimbursement request receives a desk review prior to funds being disbursed, it is a straightforward process to monitor compliance throughout the term of the contract. In addition to desk reviews, tailored guidance is given throughout the year via telephone and email conversations. Many of the agencies receiving funding were for programs that have received grant funds over a long period of time and had no substantial changes to their programs. As such, the City focused its efforts on new agencies needing technical assistance, and on working with veteran agencies and their performance measurementsto ensure better data quality for outcomes. Agencies receiving Tenant Based Rental Assistance funding are highly encouraged to place clients in multifamily unitsthat meet the City Housing standards. It is the City's requirement that all residential rental units must have a current City business license. These units are regularly inspected as per City Ordinance. However, it is also our understanding that some clients may not be housed in multifamily units forone reason or another. In an effort to ensure safe, decent housing, a process exists whereby a Landlord may self -certify that the unit meets City Housing Code. Outside of the City's incorporated boundaries, agencies mustfollow local housing ordinances. In these instances, a Housing Quality Standard Inspection form must be in the client'sfile. All inspections and housing standards must be met prior to the clients moving into their units. HAND staff provides year-round technical assistance via phone, email and when needed, in person. This technical assistance provides the agencies with an opportunityto evaluate programs, policies and practices in a low stress environment. Continued technical assistance ensures compliancewith federal regulations. 170 Technical assistance and monitoring visits reveal that, in general, our agencies have well documented processes and are quick to contact the City when questions arise. If deficiencies are identified and agencies will work quicklyto adjust processes as necessary and moveforward with stronger programs. The City encourages citizens to become active in their communities, providing feedbackto the City about how their neighborhoods could be improved, how funding should be prioritized, and address safety concerns. 171 APPENDIX A: 2020-2024 FAIR HOUSING ACTION PLAN Salt Lake City is dedicated to affirmatively furthering the purposes of the Fair Housing Act to ensure equal access to rental and homeownership opportunities for all residents. Through the efforts identified in the 2020-2024 Fair Housing Action Plan, Salt Lake City will continue to collaborate with our partners to enforce federal, state, and local laws that prohibit housing discrimination based on a person's race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, source of income, age, parental status, or marital status. In addition, the City will address practices and policies that have the effect of limiting housing choice for protected classes. As part of a larger network of fair housing stakeholders, Salt Lake City will work toward a future where everyone has an equitable and affordable place to call home. ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS In 2014, the Bureau of Economic and Business Research at the University of Utah completed a comprehensive analysis of fair housing on both a regional and city level with a grant from HUD. Salt Lake City continues to use the 2014 data due to the fact that there are no significant changes to the data, nor significant changes to the methods to address the impediments identified. However, the City will continue to work collaboratively with community members, data experts, and local municipalities if additional data comes forward. The Regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice Salt Lake County and Salt Lake City Fair Housing Equity Assessment provide an analysis of the following: Patterns of segregation Racial and ethnic concentrated areas of poverty Disparities by race, color, religion, sex, familial status, national origin, and disability in access to housing and community assets, including education, transit, and employment This Analysis of Impediments builds on that prior study and focuses on current areas of impediments. Between 2013 and 2018, The Fair Housing Program of the Disability Law Center (DLC) of Utah conducted fair housing testing for the purpose of uncovering rental housing discrimination directed towards protected classes. This program serves Salt Lake City and all areas of Utah to ensure that an individual's housing rights are upheld and that micro or systematic discrimination is not present. ACTION PLAN Salt Lake City has utilized the regional analysis of impediments, fair housing equity assessment, and data gathered through the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan planning process to identify impediments to fair housing choice that disproportionately affect members of protected classes. The following Action Plan provides an overview of fair housing impediments and provides action items to remove or ameliorate each impediment. Impediments can be direct or indirect, created by both public sector and private sector actions, and have been divided into the following categories: 1. Discrimination in Housing 2. Mobility and Access to Opportunity 3. Availability of Affordable and Suitable Housing 4. Zoning, Land Use Regulations and Redevelopment Policies 5. Fair Housing Coordination and Knowledge 174 1. Discrimination in Housing As a HUD -funded recipient Salt Lake City does not discriminate in housing or services on the basis of race, color, national origin, disability, familial status, religion, or sex, as well as protected classes covered under state and local regulations. The City works to eliminate discriminatory practices and ensure equal housing opportunities for all. Even with the City's efforts to eliminate discriminatory practices, fair housing equity assessments have, on occasion, found discriminatory practices. Impediment: Unfair Lending Practices A contrast of mortgage denials and approvals exists between racial and ethnic populations in Salt Lake County. The mortgage application denial rate for Hispanics (20%) in Salt Lake City is higher than that of non -Hispanics (13%).' Actions to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Expand homeownership opportunities by continuing to target the City's Low and Moderate -Income Homebuyer program, as well as other direct financial assistance programs funded through CDBG and HOME, to racial and ethnic minorities, persons with disabilities, single -parent households, and large families. Collaborate with community partners, including community development organizations, religious institutions, employment centers, and housing counseling agencies to support education programs on bank products and services, financial management, and homebuyer counseling. Programs should be offered in English and Spanish, as well as other languages as needed. III. Work with local lenders, financial institutions, and real estate institutions to build awareness on fair housing laws and practices. IV. Support the Disability Law Center's fair housing testing efforts directed at private market real estate practices Impediment: Rental Discrimination The Fair Housing Program at Utah's Disability Law Center serves people from all protected classes (race, color, ethnicity, sex/gender, religion, disability, familial status) and not just people with disabilities. Utah law also protects against discrimination based on source of income, sexual orientation and gender identity. The program serves Salt Lake City and is intended to ensure that an individual's housing rights are upheld and that micro or systematic discrimination is not present. The Disability Law Center helps ensure that people who belong to protected classes have equal access and opportunity to rent or own homes and apartments in their communities. This work includes, but is not limited to, the following: • Ensuring that landlords and property owners do not discriminate in renting or selling property • Making sure that housing is accessible to people with disabilities to the extent required by law • Advocating to increase the amount of accessible, affordable, and integrated housing • Providing fair housing trainings for providers, landlords, and consumers of housing • Conducting fair housing testing to ensure that landlords are complying with fair housing laws • Enforcing fair housing laws through administrative and judicial complaint processes 1 Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council, Home Mortgage Disclosure Act 175 The Disability Law Center has uncovered rental housing discrimination directed toward protected classes. The Center conducts tests with matched pairs of individuals, couples, or families. Testers are matched on rental eligibility characteristics so that the only significant difference between them is the factor being tested. • On average, approximately 300 calls a year to the Disability Law Center originate from Salt Lake City residents. • Data on fair housing testing from the Disability Law Center, the most common rental housing discrimination in Salt Lake City are primarily based on disability status, national origin, and race. • Data collected from 2013 to 2018 showed 97 cases of confirmed disparate treatment and signs of disparate treatment, regarding housing discrimination in Salt Lake City. During this period there were a total of 1,078 reports of people who felt they had been discriminated against. Of those, 456 total required short-term assistance and instructions on how to advocate for what they need on their own or required referrals to other legal agencies. • In 2019 Approximately 40 of the total calls were elevated to case level. Of those, the Disability Law Center successfully mediated directly with landlords on behalf of tenants. • Approximately 150 fair housing tests per year are completed by the Disability Law Center, with about 25% of the total having some sort of housing discrimination red flag. Examples of the incidents around rental housing discrimination, all of which are illegal, verified by the Disability Law Center testing are: • Landlords requesting tenants to waive HIPAA rights to verify their disabilities. • Requiring extra deposit fees for service animals. • Landlords wanting to visibly identify a person's severity of disability to determine if they should rent to them. • When an Arabic sounding name was given to a landlord, the landlord wanted to see the potential tenant before deciding to rent to them. • Potential tenants of color being told to pay higher deposits and higher monthly rents compared to white potential tenants. • Potential renters of color being told there are no apartments available when white potential renters are told there are several available to them that day. • Different move in specials given to white applicants over applicants of color. Such as free parking spaces, or being offered apartments closer to amenities. Actions to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Utilize the Good Landlord program to educate landlords and property managers on fair housing laws and requirements; In partnership with the Utah Antidiscrimination and Labor Division and the Disability Law Center, the Apartment Association, utilize the Mayor's Office of Diversity and Human rights to provide educational programming on tenant rights and fair housing; III. Refer victims of housing discrimination to the Utah Antidiscrimination and Labor Division and the Disability Law Center to process fair housing complaints. 2. MOBILITY AND ACCESS TO OPPORTUNITY Fair housing choice provides that members of protected classes are able to choose a residence that offers access to opportunity including essential services, transit, quality schools, job opportunities, and healthy 176 communities. As the map below demonstrates, there are differences in access to transit based on neighborhood. The Center for Neighborhood Technology tracks an overall transit score for municipalities based on trips per week and number of jobs accessible by transit. The central parts of the City score highly by this standard but, as shown in Figure 1, some areas with lower incomes, such as the Glendale, Poplar Grove, and Rose Park neighborhoods, score lower in the transit scores as transit lines are not as accessible in these neighborhoods.

Mobility and opportunity impediments are as follows: Impediment: Racial and Ethnic Segregation Figure 2 shows a breakdown of the City's census tracts by their reported poverty level as it pertains to the reported minority population within the tracts. It shows that the tracts directly west of 1-15 have some of the highest concentrations of minorities who are also living below the poverty level. 177 FIGURE 2 Percent of Population which is a Minority and Living Below the Poverty Level Council District 3 s Council District 7 6 Legend TRAX Route City Council Districts '5% 5 to 10% 10 to 15% 15 to 20% _ > 20% Source: U.S. Census Bureau: 2013-2017 ACS 5-Year Estimates Racial and ethnic segregation in Salt Lake City developed due to a multitude of factors, including the housing market, neighborhood preferences, land use policies including zoning, demographics, and economic conditions. Action to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Expand affordable housing opportunities throughout the City to increase housing choice for protected classes. Housing opportunities should include rental and homeownership, with a focus on housing to accommodate large families. Salt Lake City will support mixed -income opportunities through the following efforts: a. Utilize funding resources, including HOME Investment Partnership Program funding, Housing Trust Fund, and other funding sources to provide financial assistance for the development of housing that economically diversifies neighborhoods. b. Support zoning and land use policies that allow and/or incentivize affordable housing development in areas with high opportunity. 178 C. Build public -private partnerships to leverage public resources with private capital to support housing development in areas with high opportunity. Impediment: Access to Opportunity As Figure 3 demonstrates, the opportunity index is considerably higher on the east side of Salt Lake City as compared to the west side of the City and the area surrounding 1-15.

These areas have been identified through an analysis of quality -of life indicators, homeownership rate, poverty, cost -burdened households, educational proficiency, unemployment rate, and labor force participation. With these multiple indicators, a single composite, or standardized, score is calculated for each census tract. Scores may range from 1 to 10, with 1 indicating 179 low opportunity and 10 indicating high opportunity. A census tract with a standardized score above that of the citywide average shall be designated as an Area of Opportunity. Salt Lake City contracted with the University of Utah's Kern C. Gardner Institute to develop and annually update the city's Areas of Opportunity data.

Action to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Expand access to opportunity in RDA project areas by demographically and geographically targeting CDBG funding to support economic development, transportation improvements, anti -displacement strategies, and other anti- poverty programs. 180 Improve housing stability in RDA Project Areas by increasing outreach and education regarding the availability and use of CDBG and HOME funding for housing rehabilitation. III. Utilize federal and local funding in distressed and at -risk neighborhoods for strategic housing development to catalyze private investment, improve housing quality, and promote occupancy at a range of household incomes. 3. AVAILABILITY OF AFFORDABLE AND SUITABLE HOUSING A regional lack of affordable housing disproportionately impacts protected classes. Protected classes are especially impacted by a lack of rental housing affordable to households at 50% AMI and below, large family households, and disabled person households. Housing stock impediments are as follows: Impediment: Rental housing affordable to households at 50% of AMI and below A housing gap analysis found a citywide shortage of 6,177 affordable rental units for households earning less than $20,000 per year. About 37 percent of the City's renter households earned less than $20,000 in 2018, with only 11 percent of the rentals in the city in their affordability range. The limited availability of housing affordable to households at 50% AMI and below have disproportionally impacted racial and ethnic minorities, persons with disabilities, and large families. Action to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Promote development of housing units, including permanent supportive housing units, affordable to households earning 50% AMI and below by leveraging public and private investments. City -owned land can be used to leverage private investment for affordable and supportive housing development. Utilize the Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund/Housing Trust Development Fund, and HOME Development Fund to develop housing affordable to households targeted to households at 50% AMI or below. The Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund was created by the Mayor and City Council in 2000 to provide financial assistance to support the development and preservation of affordable and special needs housing in Salt Lake City. Eligible activities include acquisition, new construction, and rehabilitation of both multi -family rental properties and single- family homeownership. Additional assistance relating to housing for eligible households may include project or tenant -based rental assistance, down payment assistance and technical assistance. The HOME Development Fund was created as a reaction to the increasing housing costs and difficulty in deploying HOME funds. It's uses align with federal regulations and are targeted to acquisition, new construction, rehabilitation, and homeownership opportunities. The funds may be used for single family units as well as multi -family units. III. Strengthen incentives for the development of affordable housing. Incentives might include inclusionary zoning, density bonuses, fee reductions, fee waivers, land subsidies, and limited property tax exemptions. Strategies may also include disposition of city -owned land for the use of affordable housing development, interest rate discounts, and below market sales. 181 IV. Salt Lake City has several affordable housing projects currently planned which are expected to add 476 affordable units in the near future. These projects are listed in the table below.

Magnolia 175 South 300 East 65 30% TBD Total 476 Impediment: Rental housing for large families With an increasing share of minorities, particularly Hispanic and refugee/New American families who on average have larger household sizes, there is a higher demand for the low supply of rental options with enough bedrooms to accommodate large families. However, the supply of rental units with 4 or more bedrooms has been diminishing, while the supply of units with 2-3 bedrooms has been increasing. TABLE 2: PERCENT OF RENTAL UNITS BY SIZE Unit Size 2013 2018 No Bedroom 5% 8% 1 Bedroom 38% 36% 2 or 3 Bedrooms 36% 50% 4 or More Bedrooms 21 % 6% Source: U.S. Census Bureau: 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates, Physical Housing Characteristics for Occupied Housing Units Actions to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Utilize Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund, Housing Trust Development Fund, CDBG, and HOME funding to prioritize the development and preservation of affordable large units (three or more bedrooms). Encourage the geographical dispersal of affordable large bedroom units throughout the City to expand housing choice. Prioritize affordable housing development for families in neighborhoods that provide access to opportunities, including jobs, public transportation, education, and public amenities. Impediment: Housing for Disabled Persons More long-term, stable housing is necessary to address the needs of disabled populations. Disabled populations can experience several barriers in accessing housing and supportive services, including housing discrimination, cognitive abilities, lack of documentation, coordination of resources, substance abuse, and instability. As such, accessibility modifications, behavioral and medical services, and other supportive services are necessary to address the needs of disabled populations. In addition, more 182 residential and transitional housing opportunities are required to address the needs of extremely low- income persons with chronic alcohol and substance addictions. Actions to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Prioritize CDBG funding for housing programs that provide accessibility modifications to low-income homeowners. Prioritize the development and preservation of affordable housing units that meet fair housing accessibility guidelines, with focus on rental housing affordable to households at 50% AMI and below. Prioritize CDBG funding for supportive housing programs targeted to disabled populations. 4. ZONING, LAND USE REGULATIONS, AND REDEVELOPMENT POLICIES Land use regulations can prevent the development of affordable housing and an equitable distribution of housing types throughout all areas of the City. Impediment: Zoning and land use regulations can restrict possibilities for affordable housing, thereby limiting housing choice for protected classes. As a large rental city, Salt Lake City has a considerable amount of multifamily zoning. As such, Salt Lake City provides a broad range of housing types for households with a wide range of incomes. However, many of the City's neighborhoods are zoned for single-family use and prohibit multi -family housing. These neighborhoods are often considered to be high opportunity by offering quality schools, low crime rates, public amenities, and economic opportunities. As housing affordability continues to decline in Salt Lake City, the inadequate supply of affordable housing will increasingly impact protected classes. Such disparities will compound if zoning limits affordable housing development through the following: • Limitations on the siting of group homes • Limitations on the siting of accessory dwelling units • Minimum single-family lot sizes • A lack of multifamily zoning in census tracts with low poverty rates Actions to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Provide zoning incentives to encourage affordable housing development throughout the City; II. Revise zoning to more broadly allow mixed -income, multi -family, and affordable residential uses; III. Broaden the range of explicitly permitted residential uses for vulnerable populations, especially for supportive housing, group homes, and others; 5. FAIR HOUSING COORDINATION AND KNOWLEDGE Salt Lake City is committed to promoting fair housing through education and coordination. Producers, consumers, and providers of housing need to have adequate fair housing knowledge to promote best practices. In addition, coordination needs to occur between local municipalities to effectively ameliorate fair housing impediments at the regional level. 183 Impediment: Lack of reginal fair housing coordination between municipalities, service providers, and other fair housing stakeholders. Several impediments to fair housing choice are shared across municipalities in Salt Lake County. The most effective mitigation to these common impediments is a coordinated approach by all of the jurisdictions in the region. Action to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Salt Lake City will continue to participate in the Utah Fair Housing forum which includes representatives from HUD's Regional Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity, the Disability Law Center, the Utah Antidiscrimination and Labor division, representatives from various Utah entitlement cities, and fair housing advocacy groups. Salt Lake City will participate and promote with community partners all regional Fair Housing training, conferences, and Fair Housing Design and Construction training. Impediment: Fair housing knowledge does not reach all producers, consumers, and providers of housing, which results in a lack of understanding, misconceptions, and violations of fair housing laws. Fair housing cannot become a high priority for our community without increased awareness on fair housing rights and responsibilities. Increased awareness needs to occur for all fair housing stakeholders, from producers to consumers of housing. Actions to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Promote fair housing rights and responsibilities through Salt Lake city's annual workshop for CDBG, ESG, HOME, and HOPWA subgrantees. II. Distribute fair housing literature in multiple languages through various outreach events and through the City's website. III. Utilize the good Landlord program to educate landlords and property managers on fair housing laws and requirements. IV. In partnership with the Utah Antidiscrimination and Labor Division and the Disability Law Center, utilize the Mayor's Office of Diversity and Human Rights to provide educational programming on tenant rights and fair housing. V. Collaborate with community partners, including community development organizations, religious institutions, employment centers and housing counseling agencies to support education programs on bank products and services, financial management, and homebuyer counseling. Programs should be offered in English and Spanish, as well as other languages as applicable. 184 Impediment: Language barriers faced by recent immigrants, refugees, New Americans, deaf, hard - of -hearing, deaf -blind, or speech disabled individuals create a challenge to access available housing opportunities and obtain fair housing knowledge and resources. Persons with limited English proficiency (LEP) are those whose proficiency in speaking, reading, writing, or understanding English is such that it denies or limits their ability to have meaningful access to programs and services if language assistance is not provided. According to the 2014-2018 American Community Survey (ACS), over 16.4 percent of Salt Lake City's population is foreign -born. Salt Lake City is committed to providing language assistance for LEP persons to ensure equal access to all programs, resources, and opportunities for public engagement. Actions to Eliminate or Ameliorate Impediment: I. Salt Lake City and its subgrantees will identify populations served that have limited English proficiency (LEP) and develop reasonable steps to ensure meaningful access to LEP persons. Each agency/program will develop and implement a language access plan (LAP) to prevent discrimination and foster an environment of inclusiveness. Salt Lake City will continue to make its Housing Rehabilitation and Low and Moderate -Income Homebuyer programs available to all eligible individuals including those for whom English is not their primary language and who have a limited ability to read, write, speak or understand English. The Division of Housing and Neighborhood Development's LAP outlines steps to ensure meaningful access to its housing programs and activities by LEP persons. III. Salt Lake City will utilize and advertise communication resources and options for deaf, hard -of -hearing, deaf -blind, or speech disabled individuals who can use a Text Telephone (TTY) service. The City will also coordinate with the Mayor's Americans with Disability Act (ADA) community liaison for additional communication resources and options. IMPLEMENTATION Salt Lake City is taking a comprehensive approach to affirmatively furthering fair housing by promoting fair housing enforcement and education, as well as expanding housing choice and availability. The City intends to further develop the action steps included in this plan and report on progress through the City's annual Action Plan and Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Reports (CAPERS). Implementation of these actions will require coordination of efforts from multiple stakeholders inside and outside of City government, including subgrantees, housing, and community development partners, various committees, and City staff. 185 APPENDIX B: SUMMARY OF PUBLIC COMMENT AND CITIZEN PARTICIPATION Citizen participation is key to ensure goals and priorities in the Consolidated plan are defined in the context of community needs and preferences. It also provides an opportunity to educate the community about the City's federal grant programs. To this end, Salt Lake City solicited involvement from a diverse group of stake holders and community members during the development of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. Public engagement efforts included a citywide survey, public hearings, public meetings, stakeholder committee meetings, internal technical committee meetings, and a public comment period. The City received input and buy -in from residents, homeless service providers, low-income service providers, food banks, housing advocates, housing developers, housing authorities, anti -poverty advocates, healthcare providers, transit authority planners, City divisions and departments, among others. Citizen participation opportunities included the following: • Housing and Neighborhood Development Needs Survey • Stakeholder Advisory Committee Meetings • Consolidated Plan Interdepartmental Technical • Consolidated Plan Public Hearing • Consolidated Plan Comment Period • General Needs Hearing • Various Community Fairs • Salt Lake County Needs Survey • Input from Various State & Public Agencies • Salt Lake City Planning Commission Presentation • Salt Lake City Planning Open House • Email blasts, Website postings INTERDEPARTMENTAL TECHNICAL ADVISORY GROUP MEETING #1 On July 29, 2019, the Interdepartmental Technical Advisory Group (ITAG) conducted their first meeting. The ITAG members responded to real-time interactive polling using the same questions as the resident survey to ensure consistency and compare results. The top priorities were housing and transportation with an emphasis on insufficient housing stock to meet the needs of a growing population. This concern about stock and growth was focused mostly on low-income individual and families, seniors, and persons with disabilities. Another key takeaway from the meeting was that ITAG members felt that their role in relates to the Consolidated Plan was to assist the City Council with implementation and to be a liaison to the public and City officials. STAKEHOLDER MEETING #1 On July 30, 2019, the Housing and Neighborhood Development Division of Salt Lake City held a public meeting with nonprofit providers of housing and supportive services. The purpose of the meeting was to gain input and discuss which needs of low- and moderate -income residents were the greatest. This input helped form the Consolidated Plan's goals and priorities. 186 The meeting agenda was as follows: • 10:30 a.m. - 10:40 a.m. - Introductions • 10:40 a.m. - 10:50 a.m. - What is the Consolidated Plan? o Importance of the meeting o Citizen Participation Timeline/Process • 10:50 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. - Existing Conditions & Trends • 11:00 a.m. - 11:15 a.m. - Survey • 10:15 a.m. - 12:15 p.m. - Stakeholder Priorities • 12:15 p.m. - 12:30 p.m. - Wrap-up As outlined in the agenda, the meeting set aside time to help the attendees understand the importance of their feedback in the Consolidated Plan's goal -setting process and then immediately consulted with them to gain insight into their perception of existing conditions and trends. This was followed by a survey which helped the attendees specify priorities moving forward. The survey results indicated housing services were the highest priority. Homeless services, mental health services, healthcare services, and childhood education programs were the next top priorities respectively.

Housing, transportation and the provision of needed services ranked as the highest priorities. STAKEHOLDER MEETING #2 On September 24, 2019, the Housing and Neighborhood Development Division of Salt Lake City held a public meeting with nonprofit providers of housing and supportive services. The purpose of the meeting was to gain input and discuss which strategies that would help achieve the priorities identified in the first stakeholder meeting on July 30, 2019. This input helped form the Consolidated Plan's strategies which would ultimately aid in achieving the overall goals of the plan. The meeting began with a review of the survey results from the stakeholder meeting held on July 30, 2019 and reaffirmed that the main priorities which had been outlined were housing services and transportation. There was then a review of the data analysis which had been conducted so far with key demographic data points highlighted such as population, housing costs increases, cost burdened households by area, homeless statistics, and others. The stakeholders then worked together to outline a number of suggested funding strategies that the City and nonprofit service providers might consider employing. These strategies included, but are not limited to: • Provide'aging in place' programs • Offer affordable housing voucher programs • Provide client centered community -based case management • Eliminate housing barriers • Integrate transportation and land use considerations to facilitate affordable housing along transit corridors • Improve regional collaboration with public and private -sector partners to improve efficiencies in the allocation of resources and to reduce redundancies • Leverage innovative technologies to improve access to information regarding affordable housing demand and supply • Offer free fare or reduced transit options • Expand transit service in underserved communities • Subsidize rideshare options 215 GENRAL NEEDS HEARING Ak PRESS RELEASE un�� OFFICE of the MAYOR I JACQUELINE BISKUPSKI rq a0u FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 21, 2019 Contact: Elaine Wiseman 801-535-6035 GENERAL NEEDS HEARING - Residents Invited to Submit Comments on Community Development Needs SALT LAKE CITY — The Salt Lake City Housing and Neighborhood Development Division (HAND) invites residents to participate in a General Needs Hearing to gather public comments on overall housing and community development needs as they relate to low and moderate -income Salt Lake City residents.

Think the city should concentrate on the things the city is supposed to accomplish. These things, as I see it, are the main responsibilities of the city Police and Fire protection Courts Water and sewer, trash pickup, street lighting, flood control Streets (repair, traffic flow) Parks, including golf courses and disc golf courses ffmeffffm I think that the city does a pretty good job on most of these items but, we probably could get better on streets and police. On the west side the streets are in disrepair and have been for what seems like a long time. The main east/west streets, 10th north, 6th north and North temple all have some problems. 10th and 6th are beat to death and North Temple has poor semaphore usage. I think you are working on a plan for 6th north. If not, you should be. The same needs to be done for 10th North. On North temple, the Tracks line mid block cross walks (sometimes not at mid block) need to activate only one half of the road at a time. Pedestrians should have to push a button to get from side A to the train island and then push a button to get from the island to side B since most of the people are crossing just to get on the train. Secondly those lights should all be of the new type for pedestrians where passing the button stops traffic and then after a few seconds flashes to make traffic stop, look and go. As far as police go, I think they do a great job but are somewhat undermanned. I hear and see people speeding or racing on Redwood road far too often. I think if police pull people over once in a while, at random intervals, it would act as a traffic calming action. 221 Shooting occurs too often. Perhaps a "seen" police presence would help eliminated that. I actually feel safe in my area but I see more city employees on Segways checking the garbage for contraband than I see police in the area. That doesn't seem right. I also see FAR TOO MANY people texting while driving. I think that if we shower our texters with tickets the streets would be safer. I don't think that the media campaign is useless but there would be more impact if more people got ticketed. That's my 2 cents for now. If I think of anything else, I will add it. If you have any questions or need clarification, please contact me. Thanks for reading, Source: Email Date Submitted: 10/24/19 Contacted Through: NextDoor Key Points: Air BnB, Private Streets, Community Garden Dear Dillon, I have some general concerns to share with you. 1) Short term rentals in residential neighborhoods. I live on the 400 South block of Elizabeth Street, 84102. It's a tiny, private street, and yet there are TWO people operating AirBNB on our block. We have contacted Civil Enforcement often and there is reluctance to do anything. Why isn't the City interested in enforcing existing codes? 2) Private streets are another concern. There are many of these in our city, holdovers, from developments many years ago. Now it is a situation where it is no longer clear that anyone is in charge. Our block of Elizabeth Street is one such example. If you look at the plat map, the street doesn't look like it belongs to anyone. It is in disrepair, but there is no clear way for it to be fixed. 3) The LDS church is apparently planning to change the space that has been a community garden behind the 33rd Ward (453 S 1100E, 84102) into a parking lot. This is of great concern to me, both as a member of the garden and a neighbor of the plot. It is in a historic district, and based on the zoning it seems inappropriate. Thanks for the opportunity to comment. Happy to follow up with you 222 COMMUNITY EVENTS Beginning in May and running through November of 2019, the City performed a grassroots citizen participation effort where City staff attended community events to gather public input through existing forums where opportunities existed to reach hundreds of people at a single event. Some of the events included: • The Rose Park Festival • The Sorenson CommUNITY Fair • Partners in the Park • Groove in the Grove • The Monster Block Party • And dozens more City staff managed information booths and solicited input from residents in the form of interactive materials. It is estimated that over 1,322 residents participated resulting in the following outcome: PRIORITIES FOR FEDERAL FUNDING Which of the shown Public Services could Sah Lake City priorik„e? 18 245 217 50 199 321 635 166 r�.•c�al�or+al progr>� J 0 �' Computer 1 substance technoloy�r shuse and lay proficiency services didictian n �; drnYiq ji rr 1q= 33 HOUSING !

The meeting focused on the following objectives: • Homeless Services • Housing Services • Transportation • Economic Development • Behavioral Health: Mental Health & Substance Abuse Stakeholders and City staff voted on strategies which could be used to directly address the objectives of the Consolidated Plan. It was indicated that client centered community -based case management, treatment services for mental health and substance abuse, as well as the provision of housing, transit passes, and job training to income -eligible residents were their top priorities to meet these five objectives. 224 SALT LAKE CITY PLANNING COMMISION MEETING MEMORANDUM 'i I1.wIYI.`i0 U144514x 13014}IL3,11YQN110IIFMl=-006 DSk1lLLPS[Q71r Ta: $ilk Lake City Planning Camm sswo From; JEanifer Schuman, Deputy Director, SLC FIousmgandlieighborhood Derelopmenk (FLAND) $oa-535 96 or iennifer,schamanni+�)slagov o= Date; January 29, 2020 Re; Draft 2ozo-2=4 Salt Iake City C onsobdatnd Plan The United Skates Departnnent of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires entitlement cities like Salt Lake City; to develop a Consolidated Plan once every fa.e years.

Request Description: The 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan is the City's guiding document for expenditure of the following U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) entitlement funds: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), Home Investment Partnership Program (HOME), and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA). These funds are intended to address disparities that exist in our community impacting low income residents and/or low-income areas of the City. Through an extensive process, the City has collaborated with over 4,000 interested parties in the development of the draft Plan. This includes constituents, community partners, city experts, elected officials, state departments, and local municipalities. Together, we have identified highest priority needs; service and funding gaps; actionable goals and strategies; performance measurements and desired outcomes; and specific geographic areas of the city to focus infrastructure improvements. Over the US Department of Housing & Urban Development Program years of 2020 through 2024, Salt Lake City Housing & Neighborhood Development will accept applications from non-profit partners, city divisions, and other agencies that address the specific goals and strategies outlined in the plan. All projects/programs must adhere to the applicable grant regulations, the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, and city policies. Those interested in learning more about the Plan may visit https://www.sIc.gov/hand/consolidated-plan/. Housing & Neighborhood Development respectfully requests that all comments be submitted via the following email address: consolidatedplan@slcgov.com. Request for Input from Your Recognized Organization As part of this process, the applicant is required to solicit comments from Recognized Organizations. The purpose of the Recognized Organization review is to inform the community of the project and solicit 226 comments/concerns they have with the project. The Recognized Organization may also take a vote to determine whether there is support for the project, but this is not required. In general, the plan details specific ways in which CDBG, ESG, HOME, & HOPWA funding may be used to address a wide variety of community needs. This includes goals and strategies around Affordable housing, Transportation, Economic Development, Homeless Services, and Behavioral Health. Per City Code 2.60.050 - The recognized community organization chair(s) have forty five (45) days to provide comments, from the date the notice was sent.

CDBG - Public Services Applicant. Agency: Journey of Hope. Project: Advocacy and Case Management Services. Comments: Retired from law enforcement after 20 years of services. She set up programs for women getting out of jail and prison, did as much work inside the system as she could. She started journey of Hope, and they've served 2,000 women in five years, with only 17% recidivism. Overall, their services have saved millions of dollars to the State. Their second try for SLC CDBG funds for case management services to expand services to girls who are aging out of the juvenile justice system. These girls have been sexually exploited and trafficked. These girls turning to the Youth Resource Center as they have no family, where there are boys and gang members who traffic girls. Had one young lady who was drugged and woke up in Las Vegas. One of the few non -profits standing in the gap for girls/women leaving the justice system. They were not chosen for CDBG, they're the "little guys" and are new, they would like to be re -considered for CDBG funding. Source: WebEx Digital Service Date Submitted: 3/24/20 7:24pm.

Comments: Asked the Council to reconsider the non -recommendation for funding. Strong partnership with the City. Before the agency existed, many homeless individuals were dying on the street without access to hospice care, that cannot be delivered in shelters, campsites, or motels. They offer wrap around services and save the area money. The Inn Between serves 40 individuals a night and is projected serve 30 more. They serve homeless and non -homeless, those near medical bankruptcy. End of life care without having to go into shelter or hospital. The Inn Between is a critical part of homeless services. They have the infrastructure, licensing and professional staff in place. The new Homeless Resource Centers don't have medical beds, and they're able to fill that need. The homeless resource centers are also at capacity. The Homeless Resource Center's don't have the ability to care for people getting cancer treatment. Asking for only one half of 1 % of total budget to serve the homeless, 60% of the clients come from Salt Lake City. 236 Source: WebEx Digital Service Date Submitted: 3/24/20 7:34pm.

Comments Received by Email regarding Federal Grant Dollars Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 I am a Salt Lake City resident, and I urge you to reconsider your CDBG funding decision for The INN Between.

They are, along with the undocumented, the ones least likely to get adequate medical care during this pandemic.

Any amount that you can fund will help the sustainability of their program. The Inn Between plays a key role to our homeless and their need for hospice care, and we need to support them so they can continue to serve our community. Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Dear Council Members: I just got word that the Mayor and Salt Lake City Council will be cutting off funding for The Inn Between - this is being sent as my plea that you carefully reconsider this decision. 238 The Inn Between is a wonderful organization that provides much needed, and otherwise lacking, services to the homeless community. Its funding is limited, and this decision by the City Council and Mayor will have a significantly detrimental impact on its ability to provide these services - which will in turn only contribute to our homeless challenges. I plead with you to reconsider and continue the funding that is so needed to help sustain this important organization. In these challenging times, it is even more important that organizations like The Inn Between - and the mission it serves - receive our support. Thank you. Regards, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Hello, I am a Salt Lake City resident, and I urge you to reconsider your CDBG funding decision for The INN Between. Any amount that you can fund will help the sustainability of their program. During a crisis like the one we are in, cutting funding to organizations like the INN Between seems shortsighted and unnecessary. Thanks Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Dear Council member, The Inn Between has provided a place for terminally ill homeless patients to receive comfort care in their final days. It is a much need service provider in this community. They have previously received $46,000 in Block Grant Funds to help them provide their services. Please reconsider your funding discussions and allow them the money to continue their important work. Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Dear Salt Lake City Council Members, I am a Salt Lake City resident and actually a neighbor of the Inn Between. I am also a member of The Inn Between Board of Directors. Every month at our board meetings we hear a "mission moment' when a member of the staff shares a story of an event at The Inn Between since we last met. Sometime it is about a reunification with a resident and their extended family, sometimes it is about a residents last days and passing, always the stories reflect the mission of The Inn Between to enhance the dignity of each resident wherever they are in their life journey. 239 In this time of uncertainty, anxiety and fear, and human and economic crises, there are hard choices to be made. While previous levels of funding may not be possible, I urge you to reconsider your funding decision regarding the CDBG dollars. Any amount you can fund would be of great assistance in sustaining the vital work of The Inn Between. The efforts of the staff of The Inn Between have been nothing less than heroic in protecting the residents from contracting Covid-19. Continuing some level of funding assures them their efforts are not in vain and that you too understand the importance of not forcing our residents to have to access services from already overwhelmed medical services in our community or even worse, die in the streets. Your consideration of this plea is much appreciated. Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Dear Council Members, I have been a volunteer with the Inn Between for 4 years and have seen first hand the good this nonprofit has done for the vulnerable homeless in our city. PLEASE, please reconsider giving any amount possible to this facility.

Any amount that you can fund will help the sustainability of their program." Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Dear Council members, I am the Volunteer Coordinator at The INN Between and have been since the beginning. I have watched our resident population expand from 16 to 40 with the move to our new location. I am asking that you please reconsider your CDBG funding decision for the support of our residents. Our historical amount of about $46,000 represents only 3% of our annual budget, and yet about 80% of the people we serve are from salt Lake City. The need is great among homeless service providers and funding is understandably limited. However, TIB will be significantly impacted by this funding cut. We would appreciate your funding at any level. Please consider your CDBG funding decision. Which of our 40 residents would you deny? Thank you and my best to you all. 240 Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Greetings, I understand that The Inn Between is not being recommended for CDBG Funding at this time. I would like to strongly encourage you to restore CDBG funding to this important asset in our community. As some of you may know, I work to support students experiencing homelessness within the educational system. I have become more acutely aware of the needs of all individuals experiencing homelessness. Compound that with a terminal illness, or a need to be in a rehabilitation program for a long term condition, and the odds are not good. As a community, we need to do better by our homeless friends. The Inn between provides a vital service to our entire community. It allows those with no limited options, a place to die with dignity. I was fortunate to become acquainted with The Inn Between when it was across the street from my house. I volunteered to be part of the Neighborhood Advisory Committee, and heled address concerns neighbors had with the program. I found the staff to be willing to work with community members to address concerns, and make sure they were being good neighbors. I am sure that is still the same today in their new neighborhood. Please restore the funding request to the Inn Between, so they can continue the work on behalf of our truly less fortunate community members in Salt Lake City. Sincerely, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 PLEASE - As a Salt Lake City resident, and I implore you to reconsider decision to cut CDBG funding for The INN Between. I realize this is a difficult time but this is a group that has done so much with so little as it is and this is a great humanitarian need. Please continue to help them with any amount that you can to sustain their program. Thank you. Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Dear Council Members, I urge you to reconsider your CDBG funding decision for The INN Between for 2020-2021. They provide critical medical respite housing services for medically frail and terminally ill clients, and are an integral part of the homeless services continuum in Salt Lake City. However, they do not receive adequate funding from the state or other sources because they are not designated as a "shelter," which means that they must raise funding from other sources to provide this medical housing service to the community. Any amount of funding that you grant will help the sustainability of the program. Sincerely, 241 Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 I am a Salt Lake City resident, and I urge you to reconsider your CDBG funding decision for The INN Between. Any amount that you can fund will help the sustainability of their program. It is shameful for you to cut their funding. Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Dear SLC Council, As an Avenues resident of Salt Lake City, I am writing to urge you to reconsider your CDBG funding decision for The INN Between. This facility provides a desperately -needed service, providing hospice care for the homeless of SLC. Any amount that you can fund will help them provide dignity at the end of life. Thanks for your consideration. Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Dear City Council, I am a Salt Lake City resident and I urge you to reconsider your funding for the Inn Between. I understand that there is an urgent need to help the homeless in Salt Lake City, but the Inn Between needs funding to remain open and provide their care for the very ill and dying among the homeless. We must care for the poor, sick and/or dying members of our community. It is not only a moral and humane obligation but a public health issue as well. Before the Inn Between existed, my husband and I stood in the the cold in winter with fellow church members holding a candles to protest the fact that we had Salt Lake City residents dying in our streets. Please don't let us go back to those dark days. The Inn Between has my support and I hope you will make sure they have the funding to help them maintain their service. Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 I am very concerned about the proposal to reduce funding for the homeless in Salt Lake - in particular the federal HUD funds distributed by the SLC Community Development Block Grant program for the INN Between. They - and the homeless - especially need these funds now during this exceptional crisis. I ask you to please reconsider this decision.

Please reconsider the funding for The INN Between. The services they provide are critical to those at the end of life and ultimately, to our community at large. We simply cannot turn our back on such a vulnerable population. At the least, we should fund at previous levels if not beyond, given the difficult time that we're in. Logic would lead one to anticipate the population served by The INN Between is going to be more vulnerable to COVID19 and thus in need of their services. And, God forbid, should the infection result in more people dying before they need to be admitted to The INN Between, there will still be people who will be in need of hospice care for other reasons. This facility is desperately needed by the community much less by those whom it serves. The dignity conveyed upon the dying is shared by those who exhibit such compassion. The city funds a small but critical amount of the facility's needs, but it's probably that many corporate and personal contributions will be less this year than in the past. Thank you for your consideration of this. I could argue that this facility is needed even more than Allen Park. Please prove to me that my community cares more for people than for birds. (I love birds and agree that we deserve to have them in our midst, but not at the expense of caring for a human being as they die). 244 Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 I understand that funds from the Community Development Block Grant will not be allocated to The Inn Between. These are difficult times for the city I know, but this is an excellent organization deserving of a second look at funding. The Inn Between fulfills a very heartbreaking mission. We hear much now about patients dying in hospitals due to Covid-19, separated from loved ones. Imagine dying alone, homeless, without friends or family. Any amount of funding would help The Inn Between achieve its mission. Sincerely, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 1 urge you to reconsider your CDBG funding decision for The INN Between.

Best, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Dear City Council Members, I have recently learned that the latest budget effort does not include funding for the homeless hospice, and I ask you to reconsider. I know that you care and that all the choices you must make are hard. However, their funding is only in the tens of thousands and every dollar is well spent to keep homeless people from dying by emergency room visits. We will wind up having to pay for their medical expenses anyway, and the Inn Between is a MUCH more efficient use of those relatively modest funds. Also, in addition to the obvious need for care these people experience, the rest of us are affected by seeing them uncared for on the streets, which affects morale at this difficult time. Please reconsider, and fund the Inn Between for our most desperate and voiceless citizens. Sincerely, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Salt Lake City Council As a resident of Salt Lake City, I am asking you to please reconsider the much needed funding for the Inn Between. The important part they play in giving a safe place for those that would otherwise die on the streets is so valuable, and allows them to at least die with dignity in a safe place. When my late husband passed away in 2015 we were among the lucky ones, as the job he had held for only 6 months placed him on long term disability which gave us an income which allowed is to continue living in a safe place, with the care he needed. Otherwise we would probably have landed on the street somewhere and he wouldn't have had the care he received up until the end. I do what little I can to support the Inn Between, and I am reaching out to you and asking that you do your part to help them keep helping those that need it the most.

Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 Dear Salt Lake City Council Members - Everyone seems to talk a lot about what they'll do for the homeless, but actions speak so much louder than those words. I just discovered that CDBG funding for The INN Between is at risk. The funding received by The INN Between in the past is a small fraction of available CDBG funding and makes a tremendous difference in the sustainability of its program. This is all about dignity and compassion for dying homeless people. If the funding is going to be eliminated, please provide me and the rest of the community with your reasoning. I know there are a lot of competing claims for CDBG funding. For the eight years I served as Mayor, I went through the grueling process of considering all requests and making the tough decisions for CDBG funding recommendations. I was also aware that the priorities of City government were reflected in the funding decisions recommended by the Mayor and ultimately made by the City Council. Please count dying with dignity as a value supported by the City Council. 247 Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/6/2020 City Council: As a Salt Lake City resident and supporter of The INN Between I am writing to ask you to please reconsider your CDBG funding decision you made in regards to this important organization.

I support The INN Between, by being a good neighbor 1 block south, by small personal donations of money, food, and clothes, and through supporting the efforts of my wife Mary Beth Vogel -Ferguson Ph. D, who is on the board of directors. As a former RN I've had experience in hospice settings, witnessed death with dignity, and I know the positive impact The Inn Between has on our people in need. Please support their request for the CABG funding. We must ensure that The INN Between can continue to serve the poor and afflicted members of our community as they face a medical crisis or the end of life. Sincerely, 249 Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 I am pleading to have continued funding for The Inn Between in this upcoming year; I speak as a family member of Patricia Rice who died there Nov. 7, 2019. She was diagnosed with cirrhosis from Hepatitis C in 2007, continued to work at a SLC company until her disability prevented her from doing acceptable work, @ 2013 when she went to full time disability through her employer and applied for Medicaid. She received a waiver through Salt Lake County Aging Services and was able to live pretty independently that way at Wasatch Manor with HUD funds until Sept. 2019 when too many falls made it impossible for her to live alone. Her hospice agency and SLCounty Aging services expedited her move to The Inn Between the first week of Sept 2019 and she was able to live there with some level of dignity and safety until her death. She was care for very tenderly and I have the greatest respect for all the staff and volunteers whose efforts let her die in dignity and peace. The population of poor and ill are the most voiceless in our community and I know we must speak for them when their care and protection are threatened. They are not receiving luxuries, they are offered a clean place to live in their dying days; some have shared rooms, there are clothes available from donations, arts/crafts supplies are donated, classes are given by volunteers. This is a remarkable example of public/private/volunteer collaboration to support these least of us in their times of need. If anyone would like me to speak directly to the time my sister spent at The Inn Between, I am sheltering at home (I live in the Liberty Wells section of SLCity) during this time of Coved19. My telephone number is 801-674-0721, this is my email and I can use ZOOM. I can't imagine the impact of Coved 19 on the poor and homeless population of SLCity and that The Inn Between may be the last option for more people next year than this year. This is not the time to cut their funds. Please reconsider. Very truly, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 Dear Council members, I'm writing to advocate for the INN -between. This is a first class organization that is taking a huge burden off of the city of Salt Lake. Over three-quarters of the hospice patients taken in by the INN are from Salt Lake City.. I run a Resort property on North Temple and we've been supporting the INN with dollars as well as supplies, for years. Their work deserves to be encouraged and supported. I hope you will put a line item in the budget equivalent to the $46,000 from last year or at least very very close to that. They're doing the work for us all and taking the financial burden of those folks away from Salt Lake City government!

Sincerely, 253 Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 The Inn Between has emailed their supporters and asked them to send letters of support for funding. As many of you know, I do not support funding The Inn Between. If the genesis/funding/operations of organizations like this is typical, - then it will not stand out for you. Incompetence and grift should never be the norm and I will speak out against it at every opportunity. I have already been attacked and opined upon by SLT and Gehrke so I have nothing to hide from. I don't have to tell you that the decision being made, based on models of a virus, are going to have devastating effects on the economy as a whole. Places like The Inn Between will now stand out as the repellent example of waste that they are. 1. The State granted them a license as an assisted living (AL). In order to be legal in zoning. They have between 5-10 on the AL side. 2. The City granted them a license under eleemosynary and then housed the chronically homeless with NO criteria for entry. 3. This is not a hospice and never has been! They have since rebranded and covered most of the signage that indicates they are a hospice. 4. The appropriations committee gave them 1 M dollars to buy a building that was sound and needed no work. The attached pictures shows the current work taking place which includes a new roof/electrical/elevator/HVAC to just name a few! This was possible from a federal grand that someone in this state gave them. I will be researching more on that. 5. Within 5 months of opening they were over budget by $700,000. 6. They were over budget because they did not hire the required medical staff per AL licensing. They were operating for 5 months without MA's. And guess what? Everyone was just fine. They operated for several years at Goshen street without MA's. Why? Because they were not needed. So basically we are paying for medical staff so that they can be legal in zoning they should not be in. 7. Drug deals, residents sneaking out at night, assaults, suicides all go on within this facility. 8. 911 calls from WITHIN this facility are significant and consistent. 9. Our City Council, Erin Mendenhall told us at a town hall that she would hold TIB accountable. Many on the street, as well as myself, reached out to her with our concerns and proof of misdeeds. We never got a response. The only way any improvements have been made at TIB is because myself and several others have held them accountable. This is the project of those that want to put homeless shelters in neighborhoods because somehow it will fix the ills of these people. Senator Escamilla made that exact claim. While I am glad that people have a roof over their head, it should not be at the expense of what was once a functioning street. The residents of Sherman Ave. who could and understood the implications of housing the mentally ill and addicted, sold or moved and got out of the neighborhood. Stop rewarding incompetence. 254 Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 Dear council members and Mayor Mendenhall, I am writing to request that you reinstate funding for the hospice center The Inn Between. Without this service, the most vulnerable among us the homeless who are facing death will again die on our streets. Certainly we can find the funds to provide hospice care to our brothers and sisters in need. I trust that you will find it in your hearts to continue helping those who help others. Sincerely, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 Dear Council Members: I am a volunteer with the Inn Between and live in District 7. 1 understand that you are cutting the CBDG funds allotted to the program. I urge you to reconsider directing those funds to support the facility. They operate under a bare -bones budget and do whatever they can to minimize costs yet maintain the quality of service they provide to this most needy population.

This is not the time to reduce funding for the critical programs provided by this important institution.

More city residents will die, and notjust those at the INN Between. I ask that you reconsider this decision. Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 I can't believe you red lined the whole budget for the INN Between. It's a treasure for those who need it most. The people who are the most vulnerable are the ones we need to tend too. As a society, we are judged by the thoughts and actions of those who can give, and the homeless are the ones who need a voice, they need the kind and giving support of people who are fortunate to have the means to give back. 255 You, as a City Council have those means of giving dignity, and relief to people that have no where else to turn. Please, I beg, return the funding to a project that truly helps people who are suffering. Kim has worked so hard, put in so many hours to bring this idea to life. Don't bring it down now.

I urge you to reconsider your CDBG funding decision for The INN Between. Any amount that you can fund will benefit the sustainability of their program. The people who are served there are primarily from Salt Lake City, and, we believe, deserve to have end of life services provided when they have nowhere else to turn. Please do reconsider your decision. We live in the general neighborhood (1900 E & 900 S), an area filled with medical care facilities. This one is providing a service like no other. Please do not let such a facility fold for lack of funds or for lack of consideration by those who may indeed have a say in its viability!

I would like to personally advocate for restoring funding to The INN Between (TIB). I know you have very difficult decisions to make as to allocation of the CDBG money, and there is not enough to spread as far as desired. However, I have been following TIB closely (live near them) and am so impressed with their mission and the compassion and professionalism they bring to fulfilling it. Any amount of restoration of funding will be very much appreciated and frugally utilized. I stand with my friends experiencing homelessness in our community, particularly as they face end of life and medical rehab needs. I know you care as well and thank you for your consideration of this matter. Thanks, 257 Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 I am employed by Rocky Mountain Community Reinvestment Corporation (RMCRC). In 2019 RMCRC provided most of the financing for the acquisition and rehab of the current Inn Between facility. Through its involvement RMCRC became uniquely aware of the cost savings to the City of Salt Lake and emergency services and local hospital emergency rooms because of the Inn Between. RMCRC has since been rapaid on its loan and funding of the INN Between will have no impact on it financially. The relatively few dollars allocated to the Inn Between if withdrawn will substantially impact the City of Salt Lake's expenditures for emergency care and transit for this vulnerable and costly segment of the homeless population in the City. We strongly urge you to support the INN Between by continuing your funding. It is pennies on the dollar savings to the City of Salt Lake.

I have consistently seen young men make it out of homelessness thanks to this transition home program; and countless old folks have died with a smile on their face instead of a grieving frown. Let us value this as highly as it deserves to be. And let us know that our community's tax dollars are going to a good cause thanks to these programs. We would all rather fund these programs with our tax dollars than something else.

Especially in the current situation we are in as a nation. We need to band together and help those in need as much as possible. Our homeless population are still people and deserve to have a place to go and die with some dignity and care. Life is hard enough for everyone, we need to show some basic human compassion and not have them suffering and miserable in their last bit of life left to die on the streets. Again, I ask to please reconsider cutting funding this would be such a sad shame. Any type of funding you can allot for this organization would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this email, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 Dear Council Members, I am concerned about the proposed complete cut to funding for The INN Between from Salt Lake City's Community Development Block Grant program. I am a Salt Lake City resident who cares deeply about this compassionate resource that does so much with so little, receives significant volunteer support, and is surely deserving of ongoing recognition and support from our city. Please reconsider your decision and return funding to The INN Between at any amount, to show the city's support of this vital, meaningful service in our community. Sincerely, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 I just found out that the funding has been stop for places like the Inn Between.

Please reconsider. Thank you! Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 Hello, I received an email from a friend with concerns about SLC cutting their funding for the Inn Between. While it represents a low percentage of the Inn's funding, any more cuts at this time would appear rather devastating because of funding cuts from other private groups. Is there any rationale for cuts to those who would appear to be in dire need of medical and hospice care? I assume patients at the Inn are sheltered in place and there must be restrictions on who may come and go. If not, there should be enforcement of appropriate safe guards. I lost my husband to terminal cancer 2.5 yrs ago after enduring 4.5 yrs of a lot of pain and suffering through treatments and the devastation of this disease. I can't imagine what lack of care and home comforts would be like for those at the end of their lives no matter the illness. That goes for those who would need skilled nursing and medical care as well. We were so fortunate to have excellent care and medical insurance. I live withint 4-5 miles S of the Inn and am a SLCo resident. Certainly homelessness affects anyone in this area. A shelter was already closed. The homeless disperse throughout the valley and areas near the City and end up in homes or on other streets. It affects many areas and I applaud city and county efforts to address homelessness issues. I'm merely expressing my concerns and have questions. Thank you, and stay healthy. Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 I urge you to reconsider funding for the INN Between. They offer vital services to the homeless population that no other provider offers.

Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 To whom it may concern: I'm reaching out to you as a Service Provider in this community who has benefited from having had a wonderful organization like the Inn Between available to take in and care for Sick Homeless clients. They have been cut enormously over this last few years and I am very much afraid especially having 255 fewer Shelter beds still than we logistically need. I really feel like cutting funding and not increasing it during the Covid-19 crisis would be a bad look. Our Homeless and unsheltered community bear the brunt of our lack of investment in vital community programs when we invest in a continually over -developed city and we don't even have enough shelter beds even with the Sugarhouse shelter, it feels uncaring and that is not who we are as a community. Please reconsider your decision to cut the CDBG Grant Please consider offering more help to an agency that shows up for our very sick, and dying homeless population. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Thank You, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 Dear City Council - I know there are a lot of competing priorities out there right now. As a 40 year resident of Utah (the Avenues) I've supported many organizations.

Thank you, 263 Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 Dear Salt Lake County Council Members: I am writing on behalf of the organization Inn Between which provides much needed hospice care for homeless individuals that have nowhere to go. Please do not cut funding which would mean the individuals being helped would have no other means for services. I know you have to budget funding. I know you have to make hard decisions. At a time when everyone has so much to lose, this loss would seem astronomical to the individuals receiving care. Every life is valuable and worthy of dignity facing end of life.

I've watched the various 'assistance programs' that have existed for individuals experiencing homelessness over the last 12 years that I've lived here. Every administration, and even different council members, has had a different impact on the population of individuals that need help. Has all the help had the intended outcome? No. Are we getting there? Perhaps. I realize that there is a lot going on right now. I find myself disappointed to hear with everything that is going on, that you have cut CBDG funding to The Inn Between. I am writing to urge you to reconsider. Any amount that you can fund will help the sustainability of their unique program. Thank you, Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 Dear City Council Members, I am the founder and current Nurse Supervisor of The INN Between and am really grateful for all of the support you have provided for this vital agency in the past. Historically we have received about $46,000 from the Community Development Block Grant program. This represents only about 3% of our annual budget yet about 80% of our residents come from the Salt Lake City community. The need is great for all homeless service providers, however, even the small percentage of a cut in our budget represents a significant impact on what we can do to serve this community. I would urge you to reconsider the elimination of funding for The INN Between and know that we will appreciate funding at any level. Sincerely, 265 Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 To SL City Council Members, I am a resident of salt lake city. In the past you have supported the INN Between.

Source: Email Date Submitted: 4/7/2020 Hello Council Members, I'm writing you to plead with you to continue supporting The Inn Between. The services they provide are truly nonexistent anywhere else. Our low-income, homeless, and formerly homeless neighbors NEED this service. To deprive this population of the option of having a place to die with dignity would be so cruel. As both a social worker and a resident of Ssalt Lake City, I urge you to continue your support. The alternative for many of these folks is to die alone and without the proper care that you or I would be able to receive. Any help you can continue to give them would be truly appreciated.

For the past two years we have been weekly volunteers at The Inn Between, which, as you know, is the nation's first hospice for terminally -ill homeless people, something SLC can be most proud of. It's likely that the COVID pandemic will increase the number of such people, yet the City plans to actually eliminate its financial support for The Inn Between. 266 We can well imagine the financial constraints the City must be laboring under during this economic/healthcare crisis. Still, if you have any discretionary funds available, we hope you will continue supporting The Inn Between.

Any amount that you can fund will help the sustainability of their program. As a former volunteer and public relations coordinator for the INN Between, I witnessed the achievement of this small group of people firsthand. I count as friends the residents who passed through those doors. Their colorful and tragic way of living left an indelible imprint that remains as part of the very fiber of my being. The thought of a funding loss for such a worthy program is painfully disheartening and for want of a better word, ludicrous. Given the COVID outbreak, so many homeless are helplessly forced into death even earlier. Denied services by hospitals all across the united states, they face horrendous conditions without help. The INN Between is one of only TWO such facilities in the entire United States able to provide services to those who are terminally ill and homeless. In and of itself, this is shameful. I am at a loss trying to fathom why you would cut funding. 267 Kim Correa and her incredible staff are tirelessly devoted to ensuring quality care for each and every patient in this facility. For so many of us navigating the waters of COVID and staying alive is actually an ever-present goal. Up to three months ago, it wasn't even a thought. For the residents of the INN Between and all the homeless struggling to stay alive, this is the ever-present reality of daily living. Why would you want to participate in any effort to undermine this herculean effort and support for the downtrodden? Thank you for funding the INN Between, please keep doing so. Save lives instead of taking them away.

The INN Between is an incredibly charitable organization that provides invaluable services to many marginalized residents of Salt Lake City. The INN Between provides a beacon of hope for numerous individuals suffering from homelessness and provides an opportunity for them to get back on their feet and become valuable members of the community. In my volunteer efforts, I have seen firsthand the benevolent services that are provided to the occupants at The INN Between who deeply appreciate the care that they receive. I would ask that you please consider renewing the public funds that are granted to the The INN Between via Salt Lake City's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program as this will drastically assist in helping provide vital services for some of the most vulnerable populations of this great city.

I want to echo James Rodgers' comments regarding the importance to funding the whole project. If not funded or only partially funded, this would still leave a big empty eyesore in the Westside community. The empty lot we are wanting to improve serves as a message to our community about the investment the city is willing to 269 make in us. 900 South, on the Eastside, gets ANOTHER facelift and Rose Park fails to be properly invested in.

We have provided wrap- around services for refugee, immigrant, and asylee survivors of torture for 17 years. I recognize that all the recommended CDBG projects focus on homeless services. I attended all the consolidated plan stakeholder meetings and am disheartened to see that programs that work tirelessly to prevent homelessness have been overlooked such as ours. 99% of our clients have income less than 50% of the MFI. Our clients have overcome the unimaginable in their home countries and continue to face obstacles with mental health, poverty, language and cultural barriers, physical health, and ongoing trauma. We are the only refugee service provider in Utah who provides services without time limits. Survivors can access our services no matter how long that have been in the U.S. and they can actively receive services for as long as they need, whether that is 8 months, or 8 years. Without our services many of our clients would face homelessness, generational poverty and trauma, and chronic physical health needs. I hope that you will consider funding our program as an essential service keeping Salt Lake City families from entering homelessness.

The Citizen Participation Plan encourages participation from citizens in neighborhoods that receive significant federal funding and from citizens living throughout the City. The Consolidated Plan articulates how HUD funding will be used for the following programs: • Community Development Block Grant (CDBG); • Emergency Solutions Grant Program (ESG); • Home Investment Partnership Program (HOME); and • Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA). Citizen participation in planning and implementing housing, public services, infrastructure, and economic development activities is an essential step in creating vibrant, livable and sustainable cities that are responsive to resident's needs. A robust citizen participation process provides residents with an opportunity to improve their environment and equips local elected officials with information regarding their constituent's desires and priorities. If residents are involved in designing programs that will improve their communities, it is more likely that projects and strategies will meet their needs. Interested groups and individuals are encouraged to provide input into all aspects of the City's consolidated planning activities, including but not limited to assessing needs, setting priorities, and evaluating performance. This Citizen Participation Plan offers numerous opportunities for citizens to contribute feedback regarding ways to provide decent housing, establish and maintain a suitable living environment, invest in infrastructure, and expand economic opportunities, particularly for low -and moderate -income (LMI) persons. Salt Lake City's Housing and Neighborhood Development Division (HAND) will be responsible for overseeing the development and implementation of the applicable plans. The Citizen Participation Plan applies to the following: • The five-year Consolidated Plan; • The Annual Action Plan (AAP); • The Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER); • Any substantial amendments to the five-year Consolidated Plan and/or annual Action Plan; and • Amendments to the Citizen Participation Plan. The City's fiscal year begins July 1 of each year and ends June 30 of the following year. Each area of planning has its own schedule and must be maintained to ensure compliance with HUD regulations and eligibility for future funding. In all areas, the City will look to include the use of electronic communication, meetings, training, noticing, outreach, etc. where appropriate so long as it is clearly communicated for participation by the general public. 286 :WR1:2.10Z1:L1JiE Salt Lake City receives four entitlement grants from HUD to help address the City's affordable housing, community, and economic development needs. The four grant programs are described below: Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG): Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 created the CDBG program. It was reauthorized in 1990 as part of the Cranston -Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act. The primary objective of the CDBG program is to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment and by expanding economic development opportunities for persons of low and moderate income. The City develops locally defined programs and funding priorities for CDBG, but activities must address one or more of the national objectives of the CDBG program. The three national objectives are: (1) to benefit low- and moderate- income persons; (2) to aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight; and/or (3) to meet other urgent community development needs. The City's CDBG program emphasizes activities that directly benefit low and moderate -income persons. 2. Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG): The ESG Program is authorized by the Steward B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987 and was amended by the Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing (HEARTH) Act of 2009. The ESG Interim Rule took effect on January 4, 2012. The change in the program's name, from Emergency Shelter Grants to Emergency Solutions Grants, reflects the change in the program's focus from addressing the needs of homeless people in emergency or transitional shelters to assisting people to quickly regain stability in permanent housing after experiencing a housing crisis and/or homelessness. The ESG program provides funding to address five program components: street outreach, emergency shelter, homelessness prevention, rapid re -housing assistance, and HMIS; as well as administrative activities. 3. HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME): HOME was introduced in the Cranston - Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act of 1990 and provides funding for housing rehabilitation, new housing construction, acquisition of affordable housing, and tenant -based rental assistance. A portion of the funds (15 percent) must be set aside for Community Housing Development Organizations (CH DO) certified by the City. 4. Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA): HOPWA funds may be used to assist housing designed to meet the needs of persons with HIV/AIDS, including the prevention of homelessness. Supportive services may also be included. HOPWA grants are allocated to Eligible Metropolitan Statistical Areas (EMSAs) with a high incidence of HIV/AIDS. The City receives HOPWA funds that can be utilized in Salt Lake County, Tooele County and Summit County. CITIZEN ADVISORY BOARDS The City uses advisory boards to assist in the recommendation of funding for these grant programs. CDBG & ESG applications are reviewed by the Community Development and Capital Improvements Program Advisory Board (CDCIP). The HOME & HOPWA applications are reviewed by the Housing Trust Fund Advisory Board (HTFAB). These advisory boards are made up of a diverse resident base that allows for additional community input. The recommendation of the board is used by the Mayor and City Council as final funding allocations are determined. If a member of the public is interested in serving on the CDCIP or HTF Advisory Boards, please contact Housing and Neighborhood Development to learn how you can help direct the efforts of the city at 287 www.slcgov.com/hand. The City encourages diversity among its boards and encourage constituents from a wide variety of backgrounds, and experiences to apply for volunteerism on this and other city boards. During the development of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, the City consulted with businesses, developers, and nonprofit organizations, as well as philanthropic, community, and faith -based organizations. Representatives from these various entities served on a Stakeholder Advisory Committee and provided valuable input regarding suggested priorities for unmet, unfunded needs. In addition, these stakeholders provided direction regarding the strategies the City could employ to help address those needs with the federal funding available through the Consolidated Plan. This input is reflected in the Consolidated Plan and will help to guide how the funding is used over the five-year period. Salt Lake City will continue to use advisory boards as a way to receive community input and encourage citizens to play an active role in decision making processes. The advisory boards will provide recommendation for funding to the Mayor & City Council for consideration. The Mayor may elect to change which advisory board(s) responsible for review and recommendation of these grant sources, without further impact to this Plan or associated Plans. PUBLIC HOUSING AGENCY (PHA) The City will provide information about consolidated plan activities to the Housing Authority of Salt Lake City (HASLC) and the Salt Lake County Housing Authority, "Housing Connect." This will allow HASLC and Housing Connect to make this information available at the annual public hearing required for the Public Housing Authority (PHA) Plan. MEASURING SUCCESS The City will explore alternative public involvement techniques and quantitative approaches to measuring the success of efforts related to the Consolidated Plan. These techniques could include various online engagement tools such as online surveys, discussion forums, GIS-based interactive maps with public comment layers, social media analytics, and/or other quantitative approaches. DISPLACEMENT OF PERSONS SLC will adhere to and uphold all requirements under the Federal Uniform Relocation Assistance Real Property Acquisition Act of 1970. The City will continue to explore other methods to ensure that displacement is minimized where applicable. PUBLIC NOTICE The City will provide advanced public notice once when a planning activity subject to the Citizen Participation Plan occurs. When appropriate, public notices, announcements, draft documents, and final documents may be provided as follows: 1. Press Releases issued by the Office of the Mayor; 2. Written Public Notices, provided in both English and Spanish; 3. Posting of written Public Notices on the State's Public Notice website; 4. Email to HAND's comprehensive contact list consisting of residents, past and present grant applicants, government officials, Council liaisons, interested parties, Community Councils, local neighborhood groups, and City departments; 288 S. Post announcements, information, and documents to the City's Housing and Neighborhood Development website; 6. Information released via the City's social media accounts; 7. Follow the City's Public Engagement Guide; 8. The City will use electronic means wherever applicable to reduce the requirement for in person noticing or engagement. To be added to HAND's email/mailing lists for the purpose of automatically being informed about the federal grant activities and processes, please contact Housing and Neighborhood Development at www.slcgov.com/hand. SALT LAKE CITY PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT GUIDE In September 2019, Salt Lake City updated the Salt Lake City Public Engagement Guide. The document has been accepted by the legislative body (though not officially adopted by the City Council), and serves as a framework for use by all Departments, Divisions, and employees as they engage the public in City decisions. The Salt Lake City Public Engagement Guide was developed in conjunction with the Open Government Initiative and principles of the International Association for Public Participation (IAP2). The Salt Lake City Public Engagement Guide is a tool designed to assist city employees in determining the scope and appropriate level of public engagement necessary for a successful process. Issues of culture, language, income and protected classes come into play when the specific and/or unique stakeholders are identified, based on the characteristics and intent of a particular plan, program or process being discussed. This guide will be used in the programming and implementation of gaining the greatest level of meaningful participation with the citizens of Salt Lake City. PLANNING ACTIVITIES SUBJECT TO THE CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN General Needs Hearing Each year, during the grant application period, the City will host a General Needs Hearing. The public is invited to attend the hearing and provide input on the general needs within their community. This may include gaps in services, housing opportunities, neighborhood improvements, the provision of public service, and other needs. Information gathered at the General Needs Hearing will be used to prioritize funding to address community needs. To reach a wide variety of residents, Housing and Neighborhood Development may outreach to the public using the following forums: 1. Public Notice that meets State public noticing requirements in advance to HAND's comprehensive email/mailing list in both English and Spanish; 2. Press Release, released through the Mayor's Office 3. Details will be posted on Housing and Neighborhood Development's website; 4. Request that non-profit organizations and business partners post the English and Spanish notice in a public space in their place of business; 5. Post details of the hearing on the State's Public Notice website; 6. Additional outreach may include utilizing the Mayor's social media platforms and other applicable forms of electronic communication, meetings, training, and noticing. 289 Grant Application Availability The City will attempt to alert eligible applicants of the application process, training opportunities, and application deadlines when grant applications are available. Outreach may be repeated as often as necessary to ensure outreach is successful. To reach current and potential partners, HAND will provide outreach as follows: 1. Public Notice to HAND's comprehensive email/mailing list; 2. Press Release, released through the Mayor's Office; 3. Details will be posted on Housing and Neighborhood Development's website; 4. Additional outreach may include utilizing the Mayor's social media platforms and other applicable forms of electronic communication, meetings, training, and noticing. Advisory Board Meetings The public is invited to attend and observe all Advisory Board meetings. Per State requirements, all CDCIP & HTF Advisory Board meetings are posted on the State's Public Notice website. These public meetings may occur in person or electronically, following the State of Utah Open Meetings Act requirements. This includes and is not limited to hosting remote meetings as necessary. During time of emergency declaration, these meetings will continue to follow the State of Utah Open Meetings Act requirements as advised by and under the input of the City Attorney. This includes and is not limited to hosting remote meetings as necessary. Community Input/Public Engagement On an annual basis before the Advisory Boards make funding recommendations for the CDBG, ESG, HOME, or HOPWA funding, the City will conduct a widespread effort to ensure that a wide variety of community members have the ability to provide input into funding priorities. The method of this effort may change from year to year, however, it is always the goal of the City to specifically outreach to community members that are more likely to use the services and programs supported by these funding sources. Each year the efforts will enhance and improve the outreach to vulnerable populations, communities of color, disadvantaged populations, and will always include outreach within CDBG eligible areas and/or areas of high poverty. Consolidated Plan U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development requirements dictate that the City must have a Consolidated Plan. This is a five-year strategic plan that identifies community development and housing needs within the community. This document must specify short-term and long-term objectives that provide for decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanded economic opportunity primarily for persons of low and moderate income. Salt Lake City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan is a strategic plan focused on increasing opportunity in neighborhoods with concentrated poverty and supporting the City's most vulnerable populations. The five-year plan provides a strategy for maximizing and leveraging the City's block grant allocations to build healthy and sustainable communities that connect and expand opportunities for residents. Many steps were taken to determine the community needs and solicit feedback from the community, interested parties, stakeholders and government partners. Below is a list of events, activities and reports that were completed: 290 The public was invited to comment on the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan draft document before adoption by the City Council.

Introduction Salt Lake City's 2020-2021 Action Plan is the product of a collaborative, strategic process that spans community partners, service providers, non-profit/for-profit housing developers, housing authorities, internal divisions/departments, and the input of our citizens. Housing and Neighborhood Development (HAND) has worked extensivelyto identify community development needs and establish goals that align funding streams, community priorities and city initiatives. This plan highlights many of the efforts to max im ize and leverage the City's block grant allocationswith other resources to build healthy and sustainable communities. The 2020-2021 Action Plan identifies how the City intends to leverage the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME), and Housing Opportunities for Persons With Aids (HOPWA) funding. These four resources will provide for over $5.4 million in support for low to moderate income households or areas of the city. Similar to cities across the country, Salt Lake City is faced with growing income inequality, increasing poverty levels, decreasing housing affordability and diminishing federal resources. We are also grappling with the immediate, mid-term and long-term impacts of the Coronavirus, which is sure to have lasting impacts on our community. This Action Plan worksto address concernswithin each of these needs by continuing to develop and refine new and collaborative strategies. The following highlights a few of the initiatives and efforts that the City is excited about: • Salt Lake City has gone through a robust community engagement process in the development of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan (Con Plan) and the 2020-2021 Action Plan. These planning efforts have provided the City with a clear vision of the needs in the community and a frameworkfor strategic and targeted deployment of funding. The Consolidated Plan will serve as the foundation and guide as the City implements block grant funding over the next fiveyears. Each program identified in the 2020-2021 Action Plan meets one of the five goals as outlined in the Consolidated Plan and below. Additionally, the programs will serve as the catalyst to implementthe strategies tied to each of the five goals. o Housing— Provide expanded housing options for all economic and demographic segments of Salt Lake City's population will diversifying the housing stock within neighborhoods. o Transportation — Promote accessibility and affordability of multimodal transportation options. o Build Community Resiliency — Build resiliency by providing tools to increase economic and/or housing stability. 4 1 P a g e SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN o Homeless Services —Expand access to supportive programs that help ensure that homelessness is rare, brief, and non -recurring. o Behavioral Health— Provide support for low-income and vulnerable populations experiencing behavioral health concerns such as substance abuse disorders and mental health challenges. • In January 2020 Erin Mendenhall was sworn in as the 3611 Mayor of Salt Lake City. Mayor Mendenhall's Administration is focused on breaking down equity barriers within Salt Lake City and providing opportunities for upward mobility for residents regardless of race, income, age or ability. Ensuring a diverse and equitable community is at the foundation of the City's guiding principles. The City strives to understand the needs of underrepresented residents and will be embarking on a gentrification and equity study in the coming year to help shape future policy and program decisions. • Salt Lake City in partnership with Salt Lake County, the State, and community -based organizations is working to rapidly respond to the community impactfrom the Coronavirus (aka COVID-19) and a 5.7 magnitude earthquake that occurred on March 18, 2020. These tragic events have further emphasized the need for affordable housing in our community and the need for resources has never been greater. The City has applied for PY 19/20 waivers for service providers to provide flexibility and deployment of resources. Additionally, the City is working on a substantial amendmentto the PY 19/20 Action Plan, Consolidated Plan, and Citizen Participation Plan in anticipation of the CARES Act funding award. Salt Lake Citywill have an accelerated, but competitive application process for our community partners to address the immediate and pressing needs as they are responding to the COVID-19 crisis. • Salt Lake City conducted a survey in which 37 community partners responded to help the City understand how community and organization needs have shifted during the pandemic. These survey results have helped to identify the need in the community and organizational capacity to implement programs in response to COVID-19. Additionally, the City hosted an "Ask Me Anything" on Facebook that provided residents with an opportunityto ask housing related questions. Additionally, numerous outreach materials have been created and distributed to guide residents to services. • The City has been a constant leader in the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness (Coalition) which is a coordinated coalition of stakeholders working collaborativelyto end homelessness in Salt Lake County. In the fall of 2019, the Coalition transitioned homeless shelters to a Homeless Resource Center (H RC) model. The H RC's provide residents housing stability and case management services to assist clients in overcoming barriers to self-sufficiency. The HRC's provide a multitudeof services 5 1 P a g e SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN include housing navigation, job training, employment services, life skills, and connection to community resources. The HRC'swiII continue to bean important and critical service in our community and wiII lift our most vulnerable residents out of homelessness. Salt Lake City supports the Housing First model, that housing is a right not a privilege. This view shapes housing policy and program implementation. Salt Lake City is working closely with community partners to provide opportunities for permanent supportive housing. This model provides the City'svuInerable residents with critical services to find stability, self-sufficiency, and upward mobility. • Small community businesses serve as the life blood of Salt Lake City. They not only provide opportunities for employment but also build the fabric of diversity within the City. Salt Lake City will continue to support our small, locaIlyowned businesses by providing economic development loan funding through City resources. The COVID-19 crisis has impacted small, local businesses at a devastating level. The City is committed to ensuring that small, local businesses area ble to open safely, and survive this economic crisis. While this isjust a sampling of many of the exciting efforts the city is undertaking to address the needs in our community, it is fair to say that whilefederal funding plays an important role in our ability to leverage and maximize long term impact, it is — and will continueto be a struggle as funding continues to be constantly challenged. As a city we look to other communities, best practices, etc. to find the most effective methods of deploying these limited resources. In an effort to engage and leverage best practices across the nation, HAND participates in training opportunities, attends national conferences, contributes to regional planning conversations, and looks for opportunities to advocate not onlyfor affordable housing, but also for addressing the gaps of funding or services that exist in our community. 2. Summarize the Goals and Strategies identified in the Plan This Year-1 Action Plan establishes and addressed several Goals and Strategies as outlined in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. These goals are briefly outlined below. Greater detail is provided in section AP-20. 1) Housing: Provide expanded housing options for all economic and demographic segments of Salt Lake City's population while diversifying the housing stock within neighborhoods. Strategies: 6 1 P a g e SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN • Support housing programs that address the needs of aging housing stock through targeting rehabilitation efforts and diversifyingthe housing stockwithin neighborhoods • Expand housing support foraging residents that ensure access to continued stable housing • Support affordable housing development that increases the number and types of units available for income eligible residents • Support programs that provide access to homeownership via down payment assistance, and/or housing subsidy, and/or financing • Support rent assistance programs to emphasize stable housing as a primary strategy to prevent and end homelessness • Support programs that provide connection to permanent housing upon exiting behavioral health programs.

Strategies: • Expand treatment options, counseling support, and case managementfor those experiencing behavioral health crisis 6) Administration -- To support the administration, coordination, and management of Salt Lake City'sCD13G, ESG HOME, and HOPWA programs. Salt Lake City's strategy for most -effectively utilizing HUD funding is heavily influenced by the City's housing market study, the City's Five Year Housing Plan, the annual Utah Comprehensive Report on Homelessness, and the adopted Salt Lake City Master Plans that highlight strategic neighborhood investment opportunities. 3. Evaluation of past performance Salt Lake City deliberately monitors the process of advancing the strategic goals outlined in the newly adopted 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. This plan, like the previous 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan was developed with input from many stakeholders, and it is our responsibility to report backto US Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD), the residents, community and decision makers the im pact of these funds. As we complete the time period associated with the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan, here is an evaluation of progress during that time period In preparation for development of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and 2020-2021 Action Plan, Salt Lake City's Housing and Neighborhood Development Division reviewed Consolidated Annual Performance Reports (CAPERS) submitted to HUD under the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan. The CAPERS provide an evaluation of past performance and accomplishments in relation to established goals and priorities. The City's previous Action Plans and CAPERS can be viewed at www.hudexchange.info/programs/consolidated-plan/con-plans-aaps- ca ers . 8 1 P a g e SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN During the course of the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan, the City has been able to meet the vast majority of established goals and priorities. In addition, the Citywas able to complywith statutes and regulations set by HUD. SALT LAKE CITY 2015-2019 CONSOLIDATED PLAN ACCOMPLISHMENTS Goal Description Estimated Projected 1 Improve and Expand the Affordable Housing Stock 1,325 1,430 2 Expand Homeownership Opportunities 110 70 3 Provide Housing & Related Services to Persons with HIV/AIDS 725 925 4 Provide Housing for Homeless &At -Risk of Homeless Individuals and Families 965 3,217 5 Provide Day -to -Day Services for Homeless Individuals & Families 15,000 7,380 6 Provide Public Services to Expand Opportunity&Self-SufficiencyforAt-Risk Populations 35,000 24,385 7 Revitalize Business Nodes in Target Areas 75 50 8 Improve the Quality of Public Facilities 1,093 1,344 9 Improve Infrastructure in Distressed Neighborhoods &TargetAreas 100,000 139,112 All the goals surrounding homeownership continued to be a struggle as the city experiences a sustained, rapid increase in housing prices and land values. This created challenges on two fronts, one being finding an eligible household that can afford the housing units long term. The other is finding units available to purchase to utilize for affordable housing. Often, single family homes are on the market mere moments before very competitive offers come in. Unfortunately, municipalities are not set up to quickly react as housing becomes available. That often meansthat the cityends up paying more for a unit that requires a lot of rehabilitation to bring it up to city code. These increased costs must be carefully weighed as housing can easily out price available federal subsidies and regulatory limitations. In 2016, the City launched a new economic development program to address the fa4ade of businesses within the geographic target area of the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan. The reception of the program and impact has been terrific, even though our initial projections proved to be overly optimistic for an entirely new program. Over the past several years, the City has taken a different approach to homeless services. This includes making a city commitment of over $2 million from general fund sources. As homelessness continues to be an issue that 9 1 P a g e SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN needs to be addressed, the city took the approach of shifting many of the service providers from this competitive annual process to the general fund. Additionally, Salt Lake City has further invested general fund dollars into homeless services through the Funding Our Future sales tax increase initiative. This shift allowed the city to invest sign if icantlymorefunding, provide local direction, cIoselymonitorperformancemeasurem ents, and provide flexibiIitythat makes sense for the local chalIengeswe face. It is important to reiterate that the city continues to be committed to providing and expanding services for the homeless population. This also means that federal resources are being diverted to address other Plan goals, while the city is taking the opportunity to leverage local resources. Providing public services to our community fell short. Over the past few years, the City modified its strategy for spending in this category, providing more services to a smallergroup of people that are in greatest need. This has been a successful strategy thus far, though it does mean the City is serving a smallertotal number of individuals. Salt Lake Citywill soon be receiving final reports regarding 19-20 funding. This data will drive future decisions about funding allocation. This data will also be fully reflected in the upcoming Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation and Report (CAPER) 4. Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process Citizen participation is an integral part of the Consolidated Plan & Action Plan planning process, as it ensures goals and priorities are defined in the context of the community needs and preferences. In addition, the citizen participation process provides a format to educate the community about the City's federa I grant programs. To this end, Salt Lake City solicited involvement from a diverse group of stakeholders and community members during the development of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and 2020-2021 Action Plan. A comprehensive public engagement process included a citywide survey (including 2,000+ respondents), public hearings, public meetings, one-on-one meetings, stakeholder committee meetings, task force meetings, Salt Lake City internal technical committee meetings, and a public comment period. In total, over4,000 residents participated in providing input into this plan. The City received inputand buy -in from residents, homeless service providers. Low-income service providers, anti -poverty advocates, healthcare providers, housing advocates, housing developers, housing authorities, community development organizations, educational institutions, transit authority planners, City divisions and departments, among others. For more information on the citizen participation efforts, refer to the AP-70 Consultation. 101Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN The City held three public hearings at different points in the process. The General Needs Hearing is an event open to the public to comment on community needs. HANDaccepts all comments and looks to understand how federal funding can address these concerns. The concerns that are not within the prevue of the federal funding is passed along to the appropriate City Department. The City Council Public Hearing is an opportunity for the public and non-profit partners to comment on how federal funding may impacttheir neighborhoods or the services being provided. This year, City Council held-overthe initial public hearing for a second public hearing two weeks later. This is because the City had just entered into an electronic meeting space due to COVID-19 and Council wanted to ensure that constituents had as much opportunityfor input into the process. More detail about these events is available in the AP-72 Participation section. S. Summary of public comments A summary of the public comments can be found in the appendix of the finalized 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. All comments were received and considered while creating this 2020-2021 Action Plan. In general, the comments submitted through both the General Needs Hearing and the City Council Public Hearingswere very positive. The comments received during the City Council Hearing typically related to the support of funding a specific agency. Topics included homelessness, housing, social service programs, youth advocacy, youth protections, health services, and addressing the special needs of populations such as refugees, aging or disabled residents. While mostcomments did advocate for a specific organization, many comments were based on sound evidence to make a point about service delivery creating powerful narratives that advanced the issue being addressed beyond a simple funding request.

Salt Lake City continues to engage these critical partners regularly as we look to maximize our potential impacton an annual basis. 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(1)) The Salt Lake City Mayor and key staff worked this year with the State legislature on a bill that has increased access to Medicaid for the most vulnerable members of our community. Proposition 3 and SB96 have expanded Medicaid access to an estimated 70,000 — 90,000 people across the state. Recently, the City has also passed a city-wide sales tax increase which has allotted over $5 million for housing programs across the city. This funding source has increased funding for programs that provide housing for the chronically homeless, homeless, mentally ill, children, developers, and people on the verge of becoming homeless, amongst others. The City is also a key participant in Salt Lake County's Collective Impact process which is responsible for coordinating a new homeless care model. This effort is driven by improving service delivery to all individuals who may enter homelessness for any period of time. Lastly, the City is very active in working with State Legislators at crafting legislation that can positively impact housing. Recently this has includeworking on bills such as SB34, SB39, and S133006. Each of these bills are critical at supporting affordable housing in the State. Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and effortsto 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 Salt Lake City representatives actively participated in the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness (SLVCEH), the entity responsible for oversight of the Continuum of Care (CoQ. SLVCEH's primary goal is to end homelessness in Salt Lake Valley through a system -wide commitment of resources, services, data collection, analysis and coordination among all stakeholders. The Coalition gathers community consensus to create and fulfill established outcomes. Using these goals, the 131Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN Coalition partners with key stakeholders to fill the needs of the Salt Lake County Valley community. City representatives served on the SLVCEH Steering Committee and actively participated in meetings and efforts. Salt Lake City representatives participate in the local Continuum of Care's (CoC) executive board and its prioritization committee specifically, so the Continuum of Care's priorities are considered during Emergency Solutions Grant allocations. Also, the three local Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funders meet regularly to coord inate ESG and CoC activities to make sure service are not being over or under funded and services being funded meet the community's needs and goals. Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards for and evaluate outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS Allocate ESG Funds Salt Lake City representatives participate in the local Continuum of Care's executive board and its prioritization committee specifically, so the Continuum of Care's priorities are considered during Emergency Solutions Grant allocations. Also, the three local ESG funders meet regularly to coordinate ESG and CoC activities to make sure service are not being over or underfunded and services being funded meet the community's needs and goals. Develop Performance Standards and Evaluate Outcomes The Salt Lake Continuum of Care and the three ESG funders share common measures to evaluate service providers. The three entities also share monitoring results of subrecipients. Develop Funding Policies and Procedures for the Administration of HMIS The Salt Lake Continuum of Care contracts with the State of Utah to administer the Homeless Management Information System (H MIS). All service agencies in the state are under a uniform data standard for HUD reporting and local ESG funders. All ESG funded organizations participate in HMIS.

Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal -setting The City seeks to develop and enhance livable, healthy, and sustainable neighborhoods through robust planning and actions that reflect the needs and values of the local community.The City has stayed true to its values of inclusiveness and innovation by embracing opportunities to provide equitable services, offer funding, and create housing opportunities that improve lives for individuals and families in underserved and under- resourced communities. The City recognizes that citizen participation is critical forth e development of a Consolidated Plan that reflects the needs of affected persons and residents. In accordance with 24 CFR 91.105, the City solicited robust citizen participation over the course of an entire year. Between May 2019 and May 2020, over 4,000 residents, stakeholders, agency partners, and City officials participated through proactive, community -based outreach, facilitated stakeholder engagement, and online surveys. The City involved affected persons and residents through stakeholder consultation, a com munity survey, community events, public meetings, public hearings, public comment periods, and one-on-one consultations. Thefollowing provides a synopsis of these efforts. The City created a survey to solicit feedback from residents regarding their priorities for the provision of housing, economic development, and public services in the most u nderserved and under-resourced areas of the community. The survey and all accompanying materials were translated into Spanish, with additional language translation services available upon request. The survey was posted on the City website and social media platforms, third -party digital applications like Nextdoor and was distributed to thousands of residents through the City's email listserv. In addition, digital flyers with Quick Response (QR) codes were created and distributed to stakeholder advisory and interdepartmental working group members. Members of these groups were asked to distribute the flyerto their respective constituencies. The survey fielding occurred from August 15 through September 30, 2019 with a total of 2,068 respondents completing it. Respondents ranked homeless and transportation services as their top priorities for City services. Street improvements, job creation and rental assistance were the top priorities for community, economic development, and housing investments, respectively. 271Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN Respondents identified PoplarGrove, Fairpark, and Ball parkas areas of the City with the most unmetneeds for underserved individuals and families. The overwhelming majority of residents did not feel that the current housing stock was sufficient to meet the needs of a growing City, particularly for low-income populations, seniors, and individuals with disabilities. Since the survey was open to anyone who wanted to take it, results may have included self-selection bias. To supplement these results with a more representative understanding of resident sentiment, the City also compared them with the recently completed annual resident survey results. Both surveys showed that residents wanted more housing and transportation investments for underserved areas of the community. 1. Salt Lake City residents consistently report a high quality of life over time. 2. On average, residents rank investing in affordable housing programs as their highest priority city initiative. 3. 95% of respondents rank improving air quality as their highest environmental priority. 4, A majority of respondents believe Salt Lake City has job opportunities for them, but they also believe that the City can do more to attract businesses. A plurality of residents would prefer to receive hnformation regarding SLC via email. Fewer than a quarter reportfotlowing the City's social media accounts. There is currently a general lack of knowledge regarding the inland Port Project, Residents who follow the city's social media accounts and use the city website report greater understanding of what the project is. Favorability of the port is heavily divided with an average scare of 42 on a scale of 0-100. Currently, greater understanding of the port is associated with less favorable opinions of it.

Matches require subrecipients to produce a specific amountof funding that will "match" theamountof program fundsavailable. In a US Dept of Housing & Urban Development memo from John Gibbs, Acting Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development (D), dated April 10, 2020, re: Availability of Waivers and Suspensions of the HOME Program Requirements in Response to COVID-19 Pandemic, Salt Lake City intends to maximizethe waiver and suspension of HOME match requirements. • HOME Investment Partnership Program —25% Match Requirement As per #4 of the above mentioned memo, Matching Contribution Requirements, given the urgent housing and economic needs created by COVID-19, and substantial financial impact the Participating Jurisdiction (PJ) will face in addressing those needs, wavier of these regulations (24 CFR 92.218 and 92.222(b)) will relieve the PJ from the need to identifyad provide matching contributions to HOME projects. • Emergency Solutions Grant-100% Match Requirement Salt Lake City will ensure that ESG match requirements are met by utilizing the leveraging capacityof its subgrantees. Funding sources usedto meet the ESG match requirements includefederal,state and local 361Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN grants; private contributions; privatefoundations; United Way, Continuum of Care funding; City General Fund; in-kindmatch and unrestricted donations. Fund Leveraging Leverage, in the contextof the City'sfour HUD Programs, means bringing other local, state, and federal financial resources in order to maximizethe reach and impactof the City's HUD Programs. Resources for leverage includethe following: • Housing Choice Section 8 Vouchers • Low Income Housing Tax Credits • New Market Tax Credits • RDA Development Funding • Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund (HTF) • Salt Lake City Economic Development Loan Fund (EDLF) • Salt Lake City General Fund • Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund • Industrial & Commercial Bank Funding • Continuum of Care Funding • Foundations & Other Philanthropic Partners If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that maybe used to address the needs identified in the plan Salt Lake City intends to expand affordable housing and economic development opportunities through the redevelopment of City -owned land, strategic land acquisitions, expansion of the Community Land Trust for affordable housing, parcel assembly, and disposition. The Housing and Neighborhood Development Division will work collaboratively with other City Divisions that oversee or control parcels that are owned by the Cityto evaluate the appropriateness for affordable housing opportunities. Discussion: Salt Lake City will continue to seek other federal, state and private funds to leverage entitlement grant funding. In addition, the City will support the proposed community development initiatives outlined in this Plan through strategic initiatives, policies, and programs. 371Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN AP-20 ANNUAL GOALS AND STRATEGIES TABLE: GOALS, PRIORITY NEEDS AND OUTCOME INDICATORS Geogra Priority Goal Sort Order Goal Start End Category phic Needs Funding Outcome Year Year Area Addressed Indicator 1 - Housing Expand housing 2020 2021 Affordable Citywide Affordable CDBG $1,855,073, 1149 options Housing Housing Household ESG $135,104, s assisted HOME $1,536,677, HOPWA $702,841, 2 — Improve access to 2020 2021 Transportati City Transportat CDBG $45,000 271 Transportati transportation on Wide ion Household on s assisted 3— Increase economic 2020 2021 Economic Target Community CDBG $530,692 126 Community and/or housing Developmen Areas/Ci Resiliency Individuals Resiliency stability t/Public ty Wide or Services businesses assisted 4— Ensurethat 2020 2021 Public Citywide Homeless CDBG $279,566, 630 Homeless homelessness is Services/Ho Services Persons Services brief, rare, and meless ESG $174,000, assisted non -recurring Services 5— Support 2020 2021 Public Citywide Behavioral CDBG $97,000 299 Behavioral vulnerable Services/Beh Health household Health populations avioral s assisted experiencing Health substance abuse and mental health challenges 6— Administration 2020 2021 Administrati Citywide Administrat CDBG $701,833 N/A Administrati on ion ESG $22,630 on HOME $95,750 HOPWA $18,026 Goal Descriptions 381Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN TABLE GOAL DESCRIPTIONSO Goal Name Goal Description 1 Housing To provide expanded housing options forall economicand demographic segments of Salt Lake City's population whilediversifyingthe housing stock within neighborhoods. • Support housing programs that address the needsof aging housing stockthrough targeted rehabilitation efforts and diversifying the housing stock within the neighborhoods • Support affordable housing developmentthatincreasesthenumber and types of units available for qualified residents • Support programsthat provideaccessto home ownership • Support rent assistance programs to emphasize stable housing as a primary strategyto prevent and/or end homelessness • Support programs that provide connection to permanent housing upon exiting behavioral health programs • Provide housingand essential supportive services to personswith HIV/AIDS 2 Transportation To promote accessibility and affordabilkyof multimodal transportation options. • Within eligible targetareas, improve bus stop amenities as a wayto encouragethe accessibilityof public transit and enhancethe experience of publictransit • Within eligible targetareas,expandandsupporttheinstallationof bike racks, stations, and amenities as a wayto encourage use of alternative modes of transportation • Support access to transportation,prioritizingverylow -income and vulnerable populations 3 Community Resiliency Provide toolsto increase economic and/or housing stability • Supportjob training and vocational rehabilitation programsthat increase economic mobility • Improve visual and physical appearance of deteriorating commercial buildings -limited toCDBG Target Area • Provide economic development support for microenterprise businesses • Direct financial assistance to for -profit businesses • Expand access to early childhood education to set the stage for academic achievement, social development, and change the cycle of poverty • Promote digital inclusion through access to digital communication technologies andthe internet • Provide support for programs that reduce food insecurityfor vulnerable population 4 Homeless Services To expand access to supportive programs that help ensure that homelessness is rare, brief, and non -recurring • Expand supportfor medical and dental care options forthose experiencing homelessness • Provide support for homeless services including Homeless Resource Center Operations and EmergencyOverf low Operations • Provide support for programs undertaking outreach services to address the needs of those living an unsheltered life • Expand case management supportas a wayto connectthose experiencing homelessness with permanent housing and supportive services 391Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN Goal Name Goal Description 5 Behavioral Health To provide support for low-income and vulnerable populations experiencing behavioral health concerns such as substance abuse disordersand mental health challenges. • Expand treatment options, counseling support,and case management forthose experiencing behavioral health crisis 6 Administration 5 401Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN AP-35 PROJECTS-91.22o(d) Introduction The goals and strategies outlined in Salt Lake City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan serve as the foundation for program year 2020-2021 projects and activities.

Utilize funding citywide, in accordancewith meeting a national objective, to support the city's most vulnerable populations, including the chronically homeless, homeless families, food -insecure individuals, the disabled, persons living with HIV/AIDS, victims of domestic violence and the low- income elderly. The ESG program's primary objective is to assist individuals and families regain housing stability after experiencing a housing or homelessness crisis. ESG funding is distributed citywideto support emergency shelter, day services, resource centers, rapid re -housing and homeless prevention activities. The majority of funding is target to Salt Lake City's urban core, as this is where the highest concentration of homeless services are located. The HOME program's primary objective is to create affordable housing opportunities for low-income households. HOME funding is distributed citywideto provide direct financial assistanceto homebuyers, tenant - based rental assistance, acquisition, and rehabilitation. The HOPWA program's primary objective is to provide housing assistance and related supportive services to persons living with HIV/AIDS and their families. HOPWA funding is distributed throughoutthe Salt Lake City MSA, including Salt Lake, Summit, and Tooele counties, to provide project -based rental assistance, tenant - based rental assistance, short-term rental assistance, and supportive services. The majority of funding is utilized in Salt Lake County, as the majority of HIV/AIDS services are located in the Salt Lake area. TABLE: GEOGRPAHIC DISTRIBUTION Target Area I % of Funds 1 1 West Side CDBG Target Area 1 12% 541Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically The Target Area was identified through an extensive process that analyzed local poverty rates, low -and moderate -income rates, neighborhood conditions, citizen input, and available resources. A recent fair housing equity assessment (May2O18) completed by the Kern C. Gardner Policy Institute at the University of Utah states that there is a housing shortage in Utah, with the supply of new homes and existi ng "for sale" homes falling short of demand. While the impact of higher housing prices is widespread, affecting buyers, sellers, and renters in all income groups, the report concludes that those households below the median income, and particularly low-income households, are disproportionately hurt by higher housing prices. In fact, households with incomes below the median have a 1 in 5 chance of a severe housing cost -burden, paying at least 50% of their incometoward housing, while households with incomes above the median have a 1 in 130 chance.' Discussion The City'swest side and central corridor continue to have economic disparities that can be addressed through investments of CDBG funding. Expanding and building upon the target areas of the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan, will allow the city to continue to focus resources in a meaningful way. The first year of this plan is a transition year and will see a small level of investment at approximately 12%. The city will look to grow that in future years that will ultimately end up in investments closer to 35% on an annual basis. While not limited to the target area, housing rehabilitation efforts will be heavily marketed in the target area. For the 2020-2021 Action Plan, this includes efforts of partners such as ASSIST, NeighborWorks, and Salt Lake City's Housing & Neighborhood Development (HAND). Each organization provides housing rehabilitation services targeted to low -to -moderate income households. Marketing these programs will help ensure that aging housing stock does not fall into disrepair or become blighted. Throughoutthis Plan period and beyond, the Citywill leverage and strategically target funding for neighborhood improvements, transportation improvements, and economic developmentto maximize impact within targeted neighborhoods.

One Year Goals for the Number of Households to be Supported Homeless: 378 Non -Homeless: 1365 Special Needs: 65 TOTAL: 1808 One Year Goals for the Number of Households Supported Through Rental Assistance: 492 The Production of New Units: 7 Rehab of Existing Units: 257 Acquisition of Existing Units: 23 TOTAL: 790 Discussion The City's Housing and Neighborhood Development Division (HAND) is committed to lessening the current housing crisis that is affecting Salt Lake City, and all U.S. cities, through a range of robust policy and project initiatives to improve housing affordability for all residents, with an emphasis on households earning 40% AMI or below. To guide these initiatives, in December 2017, the City approved Growing SLC, A Five Year Housing Plan, 2018- 2022, a thoughtful, data -driven strategy for ensuring long-term affordabiIityand preservation whilecontinuing to enhance neighborhoods, while balancing their unique needs. Salt Lake Citywill support affordable housing activities in the coming year by utilizing the following federal community development funding programs: CDBG, ESG, HOME, and HOPWA. Affordable housing activitieswill provide subsidies for individuals and families ranging from 0% to 80% AMI. Activitieswill include: • Tenant -based rental assistance; • Short-term rental/utility assistance; • Rapid re -housing; • Homeowner housing rehabilitation; and • Direct financial assistance for eligible homebuyers. 561Pagc SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN AP-60 PUBLIC HOUSING Introduction The Housing Authority of Salt Lake City (HASLC) is responsible for managing the public housing inventory, developing new affordable housing units and administering the Housing Choicevoucher programs for the City. The Authority strives to provide affordable housing opportunities throughoutthe community by developing new or rehabilitating existing housing that is safe, decent, and affordable — a place where a person's income level or background cannot be identified by the neighborhood in which they live. In addition to the development and rehabilitation of units, the HASLC also manages several properties emphasizing safe, decent, and affordable housing that provides an enjoyable living environmentthat is free from discrimination, efficient too perate, and remains an asset to the community. The HASLC maintains a strong financial portfolio to ensure flexibility, sustainabiIity, and continued access to affordable tax credits, foundations, and grant resources. As an administratorof the City's Housing Choicevoucher programs, the Housing Choice Voucher Program provides rental assistance to low-income families (50% of area median incomeand below). This program provides rental subsidies to 3,000 low-income families, disabled, elderly, and chronically homeless clients. Other programs under the Housing Choice umbrella include: Housing Choice Moderate Rehabilitation; Housing Choice New Construction; Project Based Vouchers; Multifamily Project Based Vouchers; Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing Vouchers; Housing Opportunities for Persons with HIV/AIDS; and Shelter plus Care Vouchers. Under these other Housing Choice programs, the HASLC provided rental subsidies to additional qualified program participants. Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing HASLC continues to build a strong portfolio of new properties and aggressively apply for additional vouchers. As part of a strategic planning process held with Commissioners, staff, and residential leaders, HASLC has also identified several goals for 2020-2021. Among these goals are increased focus on assisting local leaders and agencies respond to homelessness in the City as well as developing and attaining more capacityfor additional living units through real estate activities, rehabilitation, pursuing new Shared Housing (previously referred to as Single Room Occupancy) projects, developing increased relationships and services targeting and attracting landlords, and sophisticated managementof HUD programs. In April 2019, HASLC broke ground on Pamela's Place a new 100 unit PSH project for chronically homeless individuals. This project is anticipated to be completed in August 2020. HASLC also utilizes HUD RAID to preserve and improvetheir many properties. 571Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN HASLC continues to look for ways to expand their portfolio by identifying challenging properties and continuing to develop catalytic and transform ative projects and programming. Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership Both HASLC and Housing Connect have active monthlytenant meetings and encourage participation in management decisions related to the specific housing communities. Housing Connect hasa Resident Advisory Board that has representatives from public housing, Section 8, and special needs programs. A memberof the Resident Advisory Board is appointed to the Housing Connect's Board of Comm issioners. HASLC operates Family Self -Sufficiency programs that address areas of improving personal finances and homeownership preparation for voucher recipients. If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be provided or other assistance Housing Connect and HASLC are both designated as high performers. 581Pagc SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN AP-65 HOMELESS AND OTHER SPECIAL NEEDS ACTIVITIES Introduction Salt Lake City works with a large homeless services communityto reduce the numberof persons experiencing homelessness, reduce the length of time individuals experience homelessness, increase successful transitions out of homelessness, and reduce the numberof instances that clients may return to homelessness. Salt Lake City representatives participate in the local Continuum of Care's executive board and its prioritization committee specifically, so the Continuum of Care's priorities are considered during Emergency Solutions Grant allocations. The three local ESG funders also meet regularly to coordinate ESG and CoC activities to ensure an accurate level of funding is provided to match the community's service needs and goals. Additionally, the City participates in Salt Lake County's Coalition to End Homelessness and the State Homeless Coordinating Council to further coordinate efforts. The Salt Lake Continuum of Care contracts with the State of Utah toad minister HIM IS. All service agencies in the region and the rest of the state are under a uniform data standard for HUD reporting and local ESG funders. All ESG funded organizations participate in HIM IS. A representative from Salt Lake City sits on the HIM IS Steering Committee. HIM IS data allows Salt Lake City and its partners to track the effectiveness of programs and gauge the continuing service needs of the community. The State of Utah, incoordination with local service providers and volunteers, conduct an annual Point In Time count at the end of January to count sheltered (emergency shelter and transitional housing) and unsheltered homeless individuals. Unsheltered homeless individuals are counted by canvassing volunteers. The volunteers use the VI-SPDAT assessment tool to interview and try to connect unsheltered homeless individuals into services. 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 Salt Lake City's primary homeless services goal is to help homeless individuals and families get off the street and into permanent housing. In the short term, Salt Lake City will continueto provide collaborative services to the homeless population. Salt Lake City recognizes that not every homeless individual is alike and because of that, there is no one size fits all solution. There is a wide variety of homeless subpopulations in the greater community. Each of these groups have different needs that Salt Lake City focuses on in order to provide the best services possible. 591Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN There are groups of chronic homeless individuals, veterans, families, women with children, youth, and homeless -by -choice in the greater community. Each of these groups have different needs and each stage of homelessness must also be considered. The four stages of homelessness are prevention (keeping people from dropping into homelessness with jobs and affordable housing), homelessness (helping with daily needs — lockers, showers, etc.), transcending homelessness (finding housing, employment), preventing recurrence (offering supportive services to housing). If the four stages are not considered for each group, efforts will eventually be unsuccessful. Personalized one-on-one outreach to homeless individuals providing information about the specific services that individual needs (e.g., housing, mental health treatment, a hot meal) is the most effective outreach approach. Salt Lake City is exploring how to introduce lived experience peer support assistance as outreach teams work with unsheltered homeless individuals. Salt Lake Cityworks regularly with various community partners that provide outreach and assessment of individuals experiencing homelessness including Catholic Community Services; Volunteers of America, Utah; the Department of Veterans Affairs; The Road Homeand others. In2016, Salt Lake Cityopened the Community Connection Center (CCC) located intheprimary homeless services area of the City. The CCC operates as a drop -in center and employs social workers that assess individuals' needs and help connect people with available housing and supportive services. The CCC has been successful in filling the need for additional homeless outreach and case management services in the City. The work of the CCC is continuing through 2020 and continues to be a support space as Salt Lake City looks to readdress homeless services in our community. Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons Starting with the State of Utah's Ten -Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness, most efforts to deal with homelessness in Utah rely on the Housing First model. Although the ten year plan has sunset, the programs and direction are still being implemented throughoutthe State. The premise of Housing First is that once homeless individuals have housing, they are more likelyto seek and continue receiving services and can search for employment. The Housing First model has been effective in Salt Lake City, though meeting the varied housing needs of this population can be challenging. The homeless housing market needs more permanent supportive housing, housing vouchers, affordable non -supportive housing, and housing located near transit and services. Salt Lake City is working towards new solutions in these areas as outlined in the City'sadopted five-year housing plan, Growing SLC. 601Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN There is a continued need for day services to meet the basic needs of persons experiencing homelessness. Needed daytime services include bathrooms, laundry, safe storage for their life's belongings, mail receipt, and an indoor area to "hang out". Salt Lake City addresses these issues by supporting shelters, day services, and providing a free storage program. These things were all considered in the recent creation of the homeless resource centers. These centers also provide food services and look to be all inclusive, one stop shop for services and connection to community resources. This shift in how homeless services are provided will help the community realize our goal that homelessness is rare, brief, and non -recurring. Moving forward, Salt Lake Citywill aim to assist homeless persons makethe transition to permanent housing, including shortening the period of timethat individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and familiesto affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again. The City plays an important role by providing strategic funding for the valuable efforts undertaken by other stakeholders and, at times, filling in gaps in essential services. The City can also lend its voice and political weight to lobby for changes in policy, regulation, and statutes as needed to facilitate comprehensive and effective approach to addressing homelessness and related issues. Salt Lake City's newly adopted housing plan, Growing SLC, includes efforts to provide affordable housing options along with the spectrum of housing including permanent supportive housing, transition in place, tenant based rental assistance, and affordable non -supportive housing Shelter the Homeless, Collective Impactto End Homelessness Steering Committee, and the Salt Lake City Continuum of Carevoted in support of merging these two entities into a new homeless system structure called the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness. This Coalition's primary goals are to prevent and end homelessness in the Salt Lake Valley through a system -wide commitment of resources, services, data collection, analysis and coordination among all stakeholders. Salt Lake City staff play a key role in assisting this effort as it moves forward. 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 611Pagc SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN Salt Lake City and its service partners work with homeless individuals to help them successfully transition from living on the streets or shelters and into permanent housing or independent living. Salt Lake City has been working with service partners and other governmental agenciesthrough the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness (SLVCEH). This includes workon various subgroups that focus on specific areas of service, including housing and coordinated entry. Salt Lake City has the goal to help streamline service delivery to the homeless communitywith theexpress purpose of shortening the period that individuals and families experience homelessness. Salt Lake City has also funded the creation of new permanent supportive housing units and programs which serve the mostvulnerable members of our community. Progress is being made on both goals. Salt Lake City and its partner, the Road Home, are continuing to operate the House20 program. The House 20 program engages with some of the mostvulnerable members of our community, the majority of whom are now in stable housing. Through the City's Funding Our Future efforts, the City has funded a variety of housing programs that aim to fill in gaps in services in our community. These programs include new shared housing pilot program and housing programs which target families with children, individuals with substance use disorders, refugees, and victims of domestic violence. Salt Lake City has provided funding to support the creation of a combined 280 new units of permanent supportive housing that are at various stages of development in the City. 175 of these PSH units are slated for completion within the calendaryear. These permanent supportive housing units have been identified by the Salt Lake Continuum of Care as a need in the larger homeless services community. Salt Lake City continues to make progress on our 5-year housing plan, Growing SLC, which seeks to improvethe housing market in the City by focusing on three primary goals: • Reforming City practices to promote a responsive, affordable high -opportunity housing market; • Increasing housing opportunities for cost -burdened households; and • Building a more equitable city. Through implementation of Growing SLC and the funding of housing programs through Funding our Future and Federal dollars, Salt Lake City is working to increase access to affordable housing units for individuals and families experiencing homelessness. These efforts will help shorten the period of time individuals and families experience homeless and prevent recently homeless individuals and families from falling back into homelessness. Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low- 621Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN 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 Salt Lake City, along with other organizations in the Salt Lake Continuum of Care, workto prevent and divert individuals and familiesfrom experiencing homelessness. Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County and the State of Utah all provide funding to Utah Community Action forshort-term rental assistance to families at risk of falling into homelessness. Discussion Salt Lake City is reducing and ending homelessness in the community through strong collaborations with partner organizations throughout the Salt Lake Continuum of Care. Salt Lake City works closely with Salt Lake County, the State of Utah and service providers to stop families from dropping into homelessness, reduce the length of time individuals and families experience homelessness, help individuals and families successfully transition out of homelessness, and keep individuaIsand familiesfrom rescinding back into homelessness. 631Pagc SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN AP-70 HOPWA GOALS One year goals for the number of households to be provided housing through the use of HOPWA for Short-term Rent, Mortgage, and Utility Assistance Payments: 65 Tenant -Based Rental Assistance: 66 Units Provided in Permanent Housing Facilities Developed, Leased, or 0 Operated with HOPWA Funds: Units provided in Transitional Short -Term Housing Facilities Developed, Leased, or Operated with HOPWA Funds: 0 TOTAL: 131 AP-75 ACTION PLAN BARRIERS TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING Introduction As discussed in sections MA-40 and SP-55 of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, several barriers to the development and preservation of affordable housing exist within Salt Lake City, including the following: • Land costs • Construction costs • Housing and transportation costs • Development and rehabilitation financing • Housing rehabilitation complexities • Foreclosures and loan modifications • Neighborhood market conditions • Economic conditions • Land use regulations • Development fees and assessments • Permit processing procedures • Environmental review procedures • Lack of zoning and development incentives • Complicated impactfee waiver process • Competition for limited development incentives • Landlord tenant policies • NIMBY'ism While not all of these barriers can be addressed during with federal funding, during the 2020-2021 program year, the Citywill work to reduce barriers to affordable housing through the following planning efforts and initiatives: 641Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN • Growing SLC: A Five -Year Plan, 2018-2022: The City has formally adopted a housing plan that is addressing the barriers listed above and has served as a catalyst on a local and regional level to focus on the housing crisis. The plan provides an assessment of citywide housing needs, with emphasis on the availability and affordability of housing, housing needs for changing demographics, and neighborhood -specific needs. Growing SLC identifies several goals to remove barriers to affordable housing. Those goals include reforming City practices to promote a responsive, affordable, high - opportunity housing market; increase housing opportunities for cost -burdened households; and building moreequitable City. • Homeless Strategies: Salt Lake City works collaboratively with service providers, local municipalities, the State of Utah, the Continuum of Care, and other stakeholders through the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness (Coalition) to ensure a regional and concerted effort to address homeless issues within the City. The structure of the Coalition provides a succinct network for data collection, resource deployment, and service implementation. The Citywill continueto play a critical and visionary role in the Coalition in the coming year. • Home Ownership Options: The City has launched a new program for homeownership, Welcome Home SLC. The program provides low to moderate -income families the opportunity to purchase a home in Salt Lake City. It will help stabilize communities, provide incentive for neighborhood investments, and allow families to build wealth. • Community Land Trust: Salt Lake City has launched a Community Land Trustthat will allow donated and trusted land to maintain perpetual affordability while ensuring the structure on the land, the home, is purchased, owned, and sold over time to income -qualifying households, justasany other home would be. By holding the land itself in the trust, the land effectively receives a write down each time the home is sold, insulating the property for growing land costs but still allowing equity to be built by the homeowner. • Funding Our Future: Will provide additional funding during FY 20-21 to increase housing opportunities in Salt Lake City through a new .5% sales tax increase approved by Council in May 2018. • Leverage Public Land: The City has been and will continueto look at City owned properties as an investment in affordable housing. Additionally, proceeds from development on public land could be used for future affordable housing development. • Redevelopment Agency: The Salt Lake City Redevelopment Agency has committed $17 million since 2017 to address affordable housing efforts in the City, with a specific focus on areas with high land values. • Housing Trust Fund: The Housing Trust Fund was created in 2000 to provide financial assistanceto support the development and preservation of affordable and special needs housing in Salt Lake City. 651Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN Eligible activities include acquisition, new construction, and rehabilitation of both multifamily rental properties and sing le-fam ilyhomeownership. Additional assistance relating to housing for eligible households also may include projector tenant -based rental assistance, down payment assistance and technical assistance. Applications for funding can be accepted year-round and are approved through a citizen's advisory board, the Mayor and the City Council. • Policy: The City is continually evaluating policies that may impede the development of affordable housing. A few policy changes the City is considering over the coming year include an Affordable Housing Overlay zoning ordinance, Housing Loss Mitigation ordinance amendment, and a Single Room Occupancy (SRO)/Shared Housing ordinance. Actions 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 Salt Lake City will work to remove or ameliorate public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing through the following efforts: • Affordable Housing Development Incentives: Zoning and fee waiver incentiveswill be implemented and/or strengthened, including the following: o Review the City's Housing Loss Mitigation ordinance to ensure that the city's stock of inexpensive housing isn't rapidly being replaced by more expensive units. o Develop an Affordable Housing Overlay zone that allows for and provides incentives for the creation and preservation of affordable housing. o Evaluate the desire for a Single Room Occupancy (SRO)/Shared Housing ordinancethat allows for SRO's in single-family neighborhoods throughout the City. o Off -Street Parking Ordinance update to improve pedestrian -scale development and amenities. o Low -Density Multi -Family Residential Zoning amendments to remove local zoning barriers to housing density and types of housing. • Leverage Public Resources for Affordable Housing Development: Public resources, including city - owned land, will be leveraged with private resources for affordable housing development. • Funding Targeting: The Division of Housing and Neighborhood Development is evaluating ways to coordinate and target affordable housing subsidies more effectively, to includethe coordination of 661Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN local funding sources (Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund, Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund, Salt Lake County funding, etc.). • Implement Fair Housing Action Items: Salt Lake Citywill workto remove and/or ameliorate housing impediments for protected classes through action items as identified in the City's2020-2024 Fair Housing Action Plan. • Utilize Federal Funding to Expand Affordable Housing Opportunities: Utilize CDBG, ESG, HOME, and HOPWA funding to expand housing opportunity through homeowner rehabilitation, emergency home repair, acquisition/rehabilitation, directfinancial assistance, tenant -based rental assistance, project - based rental assistance, and rapid re -housing. 671Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN AP-85 OTHER ACTIONS Introduction This section outlines Salt Lake City's efforts to carry out the following: • Address obstacles to meeting underserved needs • Foster and maintain affordable housing • Reduce lead -based paint hazards • Reduce the numberof poverty -level families • Develop institutional structure • Enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies • Radon Mitigation Policy Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The most substantial impediment in meeting underserved needs is a lack of funding and resources. Strategic shifts identified through Salt Lake City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan provide a framework for maximizing and leveraging the City's block grant allocations better focus funding to address underserved needs. Underserved needs and strategic actions are as follows: Underserved Need: Affordable housing • Actions: Salt Lake City is utilizing federal and local resources to expand both rental and homeownership opportunities. In addition, the City is utilizing public land to leverage private capital for the development of affordable housing. These efforts will work to address the affordable housing gap in Salt Lake City. Underserved Need: Homelessness • Actions: Salt Lake City is working with housing and homeless service providers to coordinate and streamline processes for service delivery. By utilizing the VI-SPDAT pre-screen survey, providers are able to access and prioritize services based on chronicity and medical vulnerability. These efforts will assist in addressing unmet needs by utilizing resources more effectively. Underserved Need: Special needs individuals. • Actions: Salt Lake City is working to address underserved needs for refugees, immigrants, theelderly, victims of domestic violence, persons living with HIV/AIDS, and persons with disability by providing resources for basic needs, as well as resources to expand self-sufficiency. Forexample, federal funding is utilized to provide early childhood education for refugees and other at -risk children; improve immediateand long-term outcomesfor persons living with HIV/AIDS; and provide job training vulnerable populations; and provide medical services for at risk populations. 681Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City is committed to foster and maintain affordable housing throughout our City. This is evident through identifying specific gaps that exist in the community, and then designing affordable housing efforts specifically to address these needs. The City has developed an aggressive strategy to develop, preserve and assist affordable housing over the nexttwo years. The initiative aimsto target households earning 80% AMI and below, with emphasis on households earning 40% AMI and below. Through this housing initiative and efforts identified in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, Salt Lake City aims to: • Address the City's affordable housing shortage for those most in need. • Address housing needs for Salt Lake City's changing demographics. • Address neighborhood specific needs, including the following: o Protect affordability in neighborhoods where affordability is disappearing. o Promote affordability in neighborhoods with a lack of affordable housing. • Preserve the City's existing affordable housing stock. • Strengthen the City's relationship with our housing partners, financial institutions, and foundations. • Support those who develop and advocate for affordable housing. Toward this end, Salt Lake City will foster and maintain affordable housing during the 2019-2020 program year through the following actions: • Utilize CDBG funding to support owner -occupied rehabilitation for households at 80% AMI and below. • Utilize CDBG and HOMEfunding for acquisition and rehabilitation of dilapidated and blighted housing. • Utilize ESG, HOME and HOPWAfundingto create housing opportunities for individuals and households at 30% AMI and below through Tenant -Based Rental Assistanceand Rapid Re -Housing. • Utilize CDBG and HOMEfunding for direct financial assistanceto homebuyers at 80% AMI and below. • Promotethe development of affordable housing with low income housing tax credits, Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund, Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund, Salt Lake City's HOME Developmentfund and other funding sources. • Leverage public resources, including publicly owned land, with private capital for the development of affordable housing. • Work to ameliorate and/or eliminate housing impediments for protected classes as outlined in the Fair Housing Action Plan. • Work to leverage other city resources such as Redevelopment Agency funding/strategies, maximize sales tax housing funding, and other sources as theyare identified with federal funding where applicable. 691Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN • Salt Lake City has launched anew Community Land Trust that currently has six properties, with plans to increase the number of properties in the coming years. Actions planned to reduce lead -based paint hazards Because of the high percentage of the housing units in Salt Lake City that were built before 1978, outreach and education efforts must continue. As such, the City has implemented a plan to address lead issues in our residential rehabilitation projects. The City's Housing Rehabilitation Program is in compliancewith HUD's rules concerning identification and treatment of lead hazards. During the 2020-2021 program year, Salt Lake Citywill work in conjunction with our partners on the state and county levels to educatethe public on the dangers posed by lead based paint, to includethe following: • Undertake outreach efforts through direct mailings, the Salt Lake Citywebsite, various fairs and public events, and the local community councils. • Provide materials in Spanish to increase lead -based paint hazard awareness in minority communities. • Partner with Salt Lake County's Lead Safe Salt Lake program to treat lead hazards in the homes of children identified as having elevated blood levels. • Emphasize lead hazards in our initial contactswith homeowners needing rehabilitation. • Work with community partners to encourage local contractorsto obtain worker certifications for their employees and sub -contractors. Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty -level families In a strategic effort to reduce the numberof households living in poverty and prevent households at risk of moving in to poverty from doing so, Salt Lake City is focusing on a two -pronged approach: 1. Creating neighborhoods of opportunityto build capacity and expand resources within concentrated areas of poverty. 2. Support the city's mostvulnerable populations, including the chronically homeless, homeless families, food -insecure individuals, the disabled, persons living with HIV/AIDS, victims of domestic violence and the low-income elderly. The City'santi-poverty strategy aims to close the gap in a number of socioeconomic indicators, such as improving housing affordability, school -readiness of young children, employment skills of at -risk adults, access to transportation for low-income households, and access to fresh foods for food -insecure families. Efforts will focus on the following objectives: • Assist low-income individualstomaximizetheirincomes. 701Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN • Reduce the linkages between poor health and poverty. • Expand housing opportunities. • Reduce the impacts of poverty on children. • Ensure that vulnerable populations have access to supportive services. Federal entitlement funds allocated through this 2020-2021 Action Plan will support the City'santi-poverty strategy through the following efforts: • Provide job training for vulnerable populations. • Provide early childhood education to limitthe effects of intergenerational poverty. • Provide essential supportive services for vulnerable populations. • Provide housing rehabilitation for low-income homeowners. • Expanded affordable housing opportunities. • Improved neighborhood/commercial infrastructure in West Side Target Area. • Enhance support for small businesses and micro -enterprise businesses. • Reduce food insecuritiesfor low income households. Actions planned to develop institutional structure As outlined in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, Salt Lake City is building upon the 2019-2015 Plan and continuing to take a coordinated and strategic shift in allocating federal entitlement funds to place a stronger emphasis on community needs, goals, objectives and outcomes. This includes the following efforts to strengthen and develop institutional structure: • Geographically target infrastructure and economic development funding to areas of the citywith higher poverty rates, lower incomes, reduced access to transportation • Increase coordination between housing and supportive service providers to reduce/eliminate duplicative efforts, encourage partnerships, increase transparency, and standardize processes. • Strengthen support for the city's mostvulnerable populations, including the chronically homeless, homeless families, the disabled, persons living with HIV/AIDS, victims of domestic violence and the low-income elderly. • Support housing efforts that connect residents with supportive services and programs that improve self-sufficiency. • Offer technical assistanceto agencies implementing projectswith CDBG, ESG, HOME, and/orHOPWA funding to ensure compliance and support of program objectives. • Support employee training and certifications to expand the internal knowledge base on HUD programs, as well as housing and community development best practices. 711Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies Salt Lake City recognizes the importance of coordination between supportive service and housing providers in meeting priority needs. Stakeholders have been working towards developing and implementing a streamlined and effective delivery system to incIudethe following efforts: • Created and implemented a no wrong door approach to accessing housing and other services. • Increased coordination through the Salt Lake Continuum of Care, Salt Lake Homeless Coordinating Committee, Salt Lake County Collective Impact Committee, and State Homeless Coordinating Council. • Coordinated assessments to help individuals and families experiencing homeless move through the system faster. • Coordinated diversion and homeless prevention resources to reduce new entries into homelessness. • Coordinated efforts to house the highest users of the homeless services and provide trauma informed case management. • Improved weekly "housing triage" meetings that provide a formatfor developing a housing plan for homeless individuals and families with the most urgent housing needs. Discussion Actions planned to mitigate impacts of Radon Salt Lake City is committed to providing safe, affordable housing opportunities that are free of contaminations that could affect the health and safety of occupants. Section 50.3(i) states that "it is HUD policy that all property proposed for use in HUD programs be free of hazardous materials, contamination, toxic chemicals and gasses, and radioactive substances, where a hazard could affectthe health and safety of occupants of conflictwith the intended utilization of the property." To that end, the city created a Radon Mitigation Policy that address the potential of Radon in homes that are newly constructed or rehabilitated utilizing federal funding issued through this Action Plan. In June 2020, Salt Lake Citywill host a training seminarto review the requirements with subrecipients and ensure that they are prepared to be compliantwith the updated requirements. The city has, and will continue, to provide technical assistance to each agency in an effort to ensure agencies are properly identifying sites that must be tested, how to test correctly, how to read test results, and the appropriate mitigation standards that must be followed. The Radon Mitigation Policy includes specifics on testing and mitigation requirements. The city has also partnered with the State of Utah to implementthe mitigation policy, provide technical assistance, and outreach/education materials. To leverage resources, the city will refer clients needing financial assistance for mitigation to other community resources. To ensure that even the mostvulnerable and high risk populations 721Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN have an opportunity to mitigate Radon, the City has implemented a grant program whereby residents meeting a set of criteria, may apply for a grant to bear the costs of mitigation. 731Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN AP-90 PROGRAM SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS - 91.22o(o(7,2,4) Introduction Salt Lake City's program specific requirements for CDBG, HOME, and ESG are outlined as follows.

This Annual Action Plan covers a one year period. HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) Reference 24 CFR 91.220(1)(2) 1. A description of other forms of investment being used beyond those identified in Section 92.205 is as follows Salt Lake City does not utilize HOME funding beyond those identified in Section 92.205. 741Pagc SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN 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 In order to preserve the numberof affordable housing units for continued benefit to low-income residents, Salt Lake City requires that HOME funds used to assist homeownership be recaptured whenever assisted units becomevacant prior to the end of the affordability period that is commensurate with the amount of funding invested in the activity. Trust deeds or property restrictions are filed on appropriate properties to ensure compliancewith the period of affordability. Homeownership Recapture: Salt Lake Cityfollowsthe HOME recapture provisions established at §92.253(a)(5)(ii).Any remaining HOME assistance to the home buyer must be recovered if the housing does not continueto be the principal residence of the familyfor the duration of the period of affordability. The HOME investmentthat is subject to recapture is based on the direct subsidy amount which includesthe HOME assistancethat enabled the home buyer to buy the housing unit. In all cases, the recapture provisions are limited to the net proceeds of the sale. Salt Lake City requires all sub -recipients and CHDO'sto followthe same recapture guidelines as outlined and required in the HOME rule. The City will utilize one of the following options: A) If it was determined that HOME regulations were not adhered to for initial approval of the homeowneror during the term of affordability, the entire HOME subsidywill be recaptured. B) In the event of change of title/ownership, the Citywill reduce the HOME investment amount to be recaptured on a pro-rata basis for the timethe homeownerhas owned and occupied the housing measured against the applicable affordability period. C) If the net proceeds are not sufficient to recapture the appropriate HOME investment plus enable the homeownerto recover the amount of the homeowner's down payment and any capital improvement investment made by the owner since purchase, the Citywill share the net proceeds. Net proceeds are the sales price minus loan repayment (other than HOME funds) and closing costs. The net proceeds will be divided proportionally on a pro-rata basis for the time the homeowner has owned and occupied the housing measured against the applicable affordability period. Owner investment returned first. The City may choose to permit the home buyer to recover the home buyer's entire investment (down payment and capital improvements made by the owner since purchase) before recapturing the HOME investment. This provision is intended to ensure a fair return on investment for the homeowner if a sale occurs during the period of affordability. 751Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN HOME Funds Provided for Homebuyer Activity Minimum years subject to Recapture of HOME Funds of Affordability Under$15,000 Between $15,000 and $40,000 Over $40,000 Homeownership Resale: 5 Years 10 Years 15 Years Resale requirements will only apply to HOME -funded affordable homeownership opportunities provided using the Community Land Trust (CLT) model. In that model, Salt Lake City provides funding to a community land trust to sell homes at an affordable price while placing a 99-year leasehold on the estate. Resale provisions will be enforced by a recorded covenant signed by the land owner, the homebuyer, and the City, and also through a 99-year ground lease between the land owner (the trust) and the homebuyer. Under both the covenant and the ground lease, the home may be sold onlyto an income -qualified buyerwho will occupythe homeas a primary residence. The land owner, through the ground lease, shall have an option to purchase in order to ensure that the home is sold to an eligible buyer at an affordable price. The Resale Requirementwill limitthe sales price, as described below. The provision for determining the sales prices of CLT units incorporates historical appreciation data with an annual appreciation percentage for determining future sales prices. This provision is based on an objective standard and is included in the CLT lease agreement. This provision is intended to ensure a fair return on investmentfor the homeowner. The provision for determining homeowner return on capital improvements is included in the CLTlease under Construction Carried Out by Homeowner Requirements and Appraised Value of Homeowner's Ownership Interest at Resale or Formula Price. Due to the growing costs of homes in the Salt Lake City residential market, the City has opted to implementa Homeownership Value Limit of $378,100 fora singlefamily home. Salt Lake Citydetermined95 percent of the median area purchase price for single family housing in the jurisdiction in accordance with procedures established at § 92.254(a)(2)(iii). Specifically, this purchase price was calculated based on a median sales price of $398,000 (i.e. $398,000 x 0.95 = $378,100) for single family homes. This figure is for both new construction and existing homes. The attached sales data includes a count of 2,361 sales since May 2020 and only includes addresses within incorporated Salt Lake City boundaries. An analysis of Salt Lake City's homebuyer market demonstrates a reasonable range of low-income households will continue to qualify for mortgage financing assistance: • US Census data, Salt Lake City, 2000-2018: o The median homevalues increased 89.8%, from $152,400 to $289,200 761Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN o The median household income increased by 52.6%, from $36,944 in 2000 to $56,370 • HUD, HOME IncomeGuidelines for 2020, Salt Lake County, 80% AM for a family of 4: $70,300 • US Census data, Salt Lake City, 2014-2018: o The number of households earning $50,000 - $74,999: 13,991 households, 17.9% of total population o The average monthly owner costs with a mortgage, $1,534 • Utah RealEstate.com, May 2020, numberof Salt Lake City listings between $10Q000-$299,999: 554 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 As stated above, Salt Lake City requires that HOME funds be recaptured whenever assisted units become vacant prior to the end of the affordability period that is commensurate with the amount of funding invested in the activity. In very rare cases, Salt Lake City will use HOME funds as an acquisition source for multifamily projects. With these rental activities, rental projects must meet the appropriate period of affordabiIityor HOME funds provided to them will be recaptured by the City. Trust deeds or property restrictions are filed on appropriate properties to ensure compliance with the period of affordability. Rental Housing Recapture: All HOME -assisted units must meet the affordability requirements for not less than the applicable period specified below regardless of the term of any loan or mortgage, transfer of ownership, or repayment of loan funds. Rental Housing Activi Minimum years of Affordability Rehab oracquisition of existing housing perunit 5 Years amount of HOME funds under $15,000 Between $15,000 and $40,000 10 Years Over $40,000 or rehab involving refinancing 15 Years New construction or acquisition of newly constructed 20 Years housing 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 Not applicable. Salt Lake City does not intend to use HOME funds to refinance multifamily housing debt. 771Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Reference 24 CFR 91.220(I)(4) 1. Include written standards for providing ESG assistance (may include as attachment) The Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Policies include written standards for providing ESG assistance 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 Salt Lake Continuum of Care has developed a collaborative, written coordinated assessment plan. Consensus exists for a coordinated assessment plan that covers the entire Continuum of Care with a multi - access entry point quick assessment method for any homeless individual or family in need of emergency shelter or service. Our 211 system, service providers, government agencies, and others publicize all existing access points, striving to do everything we can to ensure individuals and families in need have clear direction for accessing appropriate services. After entry into an emergency service, individuals are tracked as they progress toward housing and/or support interventions. All homeless families and those individuals prioritized for permanent supportive housing placements are guided toward this centralized process and placed into one of several housing programs depending on assessment. Standardized assessments include quick assessment for emergency services and eligibility and enrollment materials for housing placements. Salt Lake Cityworked with partners as part of the Collective Impact process to further improve our coordinated assessment system. Representatives of the City worked with the CoC, ESG funders, and service providers to improvethe coordinated assessment system to meet requirements set forth in NoticeCPD-17-01. The new coordinated assessment system was approved by the Salt Lake County Homeless Coordinating Committee in January, 2018. Salt Lake City is continuing to work with the CoC, ESG funders, and service providers to operationalize these new requirements through the Coordinated Entry Task Group. 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) will be allocated Granting sub -awards is an intensive, months -long process. It begins with applications being made available and education workshops held to explain different federal grant programs and eligible activities under each. Staff also reaches out to potential applicants through the Salt Lake Homeless Coordinating Council, the local Continuum of Care, the Utah Housing Coalition and others. After the application period closes, a general needs hearing is conducted to help guide how ESG monies should be spent. Applications are discussed with a citizen board in a public forum. Applicants are invited to meetwith 781Pagc SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN the citizen board to answer final questions or provide additional information regarding their programs and their role in the larger homeless services system structure. The Community Development & Capital Improvement Programs Advisory Board (CDC IP Board) reviews the applications and makes a recommendation to the Salt Lake City Mayor based on federal guidelines, the 5 Year Consolidated Plan, and the City's long term homeless services strategies. The Mayorthen makes a recommendation on funding to the City Council based on the CDCIP board recommendation, federal guidelines, the 5 Year Consolidated Plan, and the City's long-term homeless services strategies. The City Council holds a public hearing for commenton the programs and proposed benefits of each. The City Council then makes a funding decision based on public comment, the Mayor's recommendation, federal guidelines, the 5 Year Consolidated Plan, and the City's long term homeless services strategies. 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 Before the Salt Lake City Council makes the final funding decisions for ESG funds, there are multiplevenues for public outreach including two public hearings. Efforts are made to include participation from homeless and formerly homeless individuals. Emergency Solutions Grant funds, along with other public and private monies, are used by Salt Lake City to implement ourshort and long term homeless service goals. Individuals experiencing homelessness often help the city craft and implement short-term and long-term service plans. Below are a few examples of how the city has created the opportunity for homeless persons to participate: • Homeless individuals participated in the creation of the long-term homeless services situation assessment. • The City interviewed over 100 homeless individuals as part of its Homeless Services Site Evaluation Commission in 2015. • Summerof 2016, the City held a workshop specifically with individuals experiencing homelessness to draft the criteria used to locate new homeless resource centers. • February 2017, a workshop was held with homeless individuals to gain feedback on the design, location and programming at new homeless resource centers. • March 2018, Salt Lake City participated in a Homeless Youth Forum, which broughttogether a wide range of service providers together to discuss service delivery for homeless youth. There were approximately20 homeless and formerly homeless youth who were dispersed amongst 791Page SALT LAKE CITY2020-2021 ACTION PLAN the discussion groups and they provided valuable feedback on various service delivery systems. • Summerof 2018, the City coordinated with Salt Lake Countyto collect survey data on funding priorities from individuals experiencing homelessness on two separate occasions. • The City continues to reach out to persons with "lived experience" to help shape the services being prioritized and funded throughout the homeless services system. ESG subgrantees and other homeless service providers routinely consultwith current and formerly homeless individualsto make programming and service delivery decisions. There is representation from homeless and formerly homeless individuals on the Collective Impact Steering Committee and the CoC executive board. S. Describe performance standards for evaluating ESG Salt Lake City scores programs receiving Emergency Solutions Grant funding using the performance metrics required bythe U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (H UD) and local priorities. In an effort to increase transparency, leverage resources, and maximize efficiencies, Salt Lake City does the following: • All applications undergo a risk analysis prior to the awarding of funds. • Standardized quarterly reporting is reviewed for compliance, timeliness, and accuracy. • Monitoring and technical assistance risk analyses are performed on all subgrantees to determine which organization would benefit from monitoring or technical assistance visits. • Collect information that supports the required performance measurement metrics and provides context on local initiatives. To ensure consistent performance metrics, the Salt Lake Continuum of Care contracts with the State of Utah to administer HMIS, or Homeless Management Information System. All service agencies in the region and the rest of the state are under a uniform data standard for HUD reporting and local ESG funders. All ESG funded organizations participate in HMIS. Salt Lake City reviews HMIS data to ensure grantees are properly using funds as promised in their contracts and meeting larger City, Continuum of Care, and State goals. 801Pagc Utah Real Estate.com Market Summary Report The following report breaks down residential properties into price ranges (in increments of 50,000).

First, the approximate monthly fair rental value of the Leased Land has been established, as of the beginning of the Lease term, recognizing that the fair rental value is reduced by certain restrictions imposed by the Lease on the use of the Land. Then the affordability of this monthly amount, plus the amount of the Repair Reserve Fee, for the Homeowner has been analyzed and, if necessary, the Land Use has been reduced to an amount considered to be affordable for Homeowner.

Thereafter, for so long as these restrictions are not reinstated in the Lease, the CLT may, from time to time, further increase the amount of such Land Use Fee, provided that the amount of the Land Use Fee does not exceed the fair rental value of the property, and provided that such increases do not occur more often than once in every 2 years. 5.7 IF PAYMENT IS LATE, INTEREST CAN BE CHARGED: If the CLT has not received any monthly installment of the Lease Fee on or before the date on which the such installment first becomes payable under this Lease (the "Due Date"), the CLT may require Homeowner to pay interest on the unpaid amount from the Due Date through and including the date such payment or installment is received by CLT, at a rate not to exceed 4%. Such interest shall be deemed additional Lease Fee and shall be paid by Homeowner to CLT upon demand; provided, however, that CLT shall waive any such interest that would otherwise be payable to CLT if such payment of the Lease Fee is received by CLT on or before the thirtieth (30th) day after the Due Date. 5.8 CLT CAN COLLECT UNPAID FEES WHEN HOME IS SOLD: In the event that any amount of payable Lease Fee remains unpaid when the Home is sold, the outstanding amount of payable Lease Fee, including any interest as provided above, shall be paid to CLT out of any proceeds from the sale that would otherwise be due to Homeowner.

If Homeowner fails to discharge such lien within the 60-day period, then Homeowner shall immediately notify CLT of such failure. CLT shall have the right to discharge the lien by paying the amount in question. Homeowner may, at Homeowner's expense, contest the validity of any such asserted lien, provided Homeowner has furnished a bond or other acceptable surety in an amount sufficient to release the Leased Land from such lien. Any amounts paid by CLT to discharge such liens shall be treated as an additional Lease Fee payable by Homeowner upon demand. 7.5 HOMEOWNER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR SERVICES, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS: Homeowner hereby assumes responsibility for furnishing all services or facilities on the Leased Land, including but not limited to heat, electricity, air conditioning and water. CLT shall not be required to furnish any services or facilities or to make any repairs to the Home.

The repair and replacement reserve fee will be included in the homeowner's monthly mortgage payment in the amount of $35 per month. Given the nominal amount of the monthly -11- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 reserve, it is not anticipated that there will be adequate funds in the reserve to pay for the full replacement of any of the eligible components, and the Homeowner remains solely responsible for the full cost of such repairs and replacements. The CLT will maintain the repair and replacement reserve, and the funds are accessible by the Homeowner only for CLT approved repairs and replacements. When the Homeowner sells the property, the balance of the repair reserve will remain with the CLT and can be used by future homeowners. 7.7 WHEN LEASE ENDS, OWNERSHIP REVERTS TO CLT, WHICH SHALL REIMBURSE HOMEOWNER: Upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, ownership of the Home shall revert to CLT.

The Homeowner shall be responsible for any costs necessary to clear any additional liens or other charges related to the Home which may be assessed against the Home. If the Homeowner fails to clear such liens or charges, the balance due the Homeowner shall also be reduced by the amount necessary to release such liens or charges, including reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the CLT. ARTICLE 8: Financing 8.1 HOMEOWNER CANNOT MORTGAGE THE HOME WITHOUT CLT's PERMISSION: The Homeowner may mortgage the Home only with the written permission of CLT.

If, at any time subsequent to the purchase of the Home and signing of the Lease, the Homeowner seeks a loan that is to be secured by a mortgage on the Home (to refinance an existing Permitted Mortgage or to finance home repairs or for any other purpose), Homeowner must inform CLT, in writing, of the proposed terms and conditions of such mortgage loan at least 15 business days prior to the expected closing of the loan.

Homeowner's reason for requesting the loan; -12- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 c. the principal amount of the proposed loan and the total mortgage debt that will result from the combination of the loan and existing mortgage debt, if any; d. expected closing costs; e. the rate of interest; f. the repayment schedule; g. a copy of the appraisal commissioned in connection with the loan request. CLT may also require Homeowner to submit additional information. CLT will not permit such a mortgage loan if the loan increases Homeowner's total mortgage debt to an amount greater than 80% of the then current Purchase Option Price, calculated in accordance with Article 10 below, or if the terms of the transaction otherwise threaten the interests of either the Homeowner or the CLT. 8.4 CLT IS REQUIRED TO PERMIT A "STANDARD PERMITTED MORTGAGE." The CLT shall be required to permit any mortgage for which the mortgagee has signed a "Standard Permitted Mortgage Agreement" as set forth in `Exhibit: Permitted Mortgages, Part C," and for which the loan secured thereby does not increase Homeowner's total mortgage debt to an amount greater than the lesser of (a)105% of the then current Purchase Option Price, calculated in accordance with Article 10 below, or (b) the total of the acquisition cost, plus closing costs from the CLT, plus the first year hazard insurance premium, plus prepaid amounts for the escrow account, plus the cost of the appraisal, less the required homeowner contribution. 8.5 A PERMITTED MORTGAGEE HAS CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE LEASE.

Any Permitted Mortgagee shall have all of the rights and protections stated in "Exhibit: Permitted Mortgages, Part B, Rights of Permitted Mortgagee," which is made a part of this Lease by reference. 8.7 IN THE EVENT OF FORECLOSURE, ANY PROCEEDS IN EXCESS OF THE PURCHASE OPTION PRICE WILL GO TO CLT. Homeowner and CLT recognize that it would be contrary to the purposes of this agreement if Homeowner could receive more than the Purchase Option Price as the result of the foreclosure of a mortgage. Therefore, Homeowner hereby irrevocably assigns to CLT all net proceeds of sale of the Home that would otherwise have been payable to Homeowner and that exceed the amount of net proceeds that Homeowner would have received if the property had been sold for the Purchase Option Price, calculated as described in Section 10.10 below. Homeowner authorizes and instructs the Permitted Mortgagee, or any party conducting any sale, to pay such excess amount directly to CLT. If, for any reason, such excess amount is paid to Homeowner, Homeowner hereby agrees to promptly pay such amount to CLT. -13- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 ARTICLE 9: Liability, Insurance, Damage and Destruction, Eminent Domain 9.1 HOMEOWNER ASSUMES ALL LIABILITY. Homeowner assumes all responsibility and liability related to Homeowner's possession, occupancy and use of the Leased Land. 9.2 HOMEOWNER MUST DEFEND CLT AGAINST ALL CLAIMS OF LIABILITY. Homeowner shall defend, indemnify and hold CLT harmless against all liability and claims of liability for injury or damage to person or property from any cause on or about the Leased Land.

In the event the CLT shall be required to pay any sum that is the Homeowner's responsibility or liability, the Homeowner shall reimburse the CLT for such payment and for reasonable expenses caused thereby. 9.4 HOMEOWNER MUST INSURE THE HOME AGAINST LOSS AND MUST MAINTAIN LIABILITY INSURANCE ON HOME AND LEASED LAND. Homeowner shall, at Homeowner's expense, keep the Home continuously insured against "all risks" of physical loss, using Insurance Services Office (ISO) Form HO 00 03, or its equivalent, for the full replacement value of the Home, and in any event in an amount that will not incur a coinsurance penalty. The amount of such insured replacement value must be approved by the CLT prior to the commencement of the Lease. Thereafter, if the CLT determines that the replacement value to be insured should be increased, the CLT shall inform the Homeowner of such required increase at least 30 days prior to the next date on which the insurance policy is to be renewed, and the Homeowner shall assure that the renewal includes such change. If Homeowner wishes to decrease the amount of replacement value to be insured, Homeowner shall inform the CLT of the proposed change at least 30 days prior to the time such change would take effect. The change shall not take effect without CLT's approval. Should the Home he in a flood hazard zone as defined by the National Flood Insurance Plan, the Homeowner shall keep in full force and effect flood insurance in the maximum amount available. The Homeowner shall also, at its sole expense, maintain in full force and effect public liability insurance using ISO Form HO 00 03 or its equivalent in the amount of $500,000 per occurrence and in the aggregate. The CLT shall be named as Salt Lake City Corporation as an additional insured using ISO Form HO 04 41 or its equivalent, and certificates of insurance shall be delivered to the CLT prior to the commencement of the Lease and at each anniversary date thereof. The dollar amounts of such coverage may be increased from time to time at the CLT's request but not more often than once in any one-year period. CLT shall inform the Homeowner of such required increase in coverage at least 30 days prior to the next date on which the insurance policy is to be renewed, and the Homeowner shall assure that the renewal includes such change. The amount of such increase in coverage shall be based on current trends in homeowner's liability insurance coverage in the area in which the Home is located. 9.5 WHAT HAPPENS IF HOME IS DAMAGED OR DESTROYED. Except as provided below, in the event of fire or other damage to the Home, Homeowner shall take all steps necessary to assure the repair of such damage and the restoration of the Home to its condition -14- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 immediately prior to the damage. All such repairs and restoration shall be completed as promptly as possible. Homeowner shall also promptly take all steps necessary to assure that the Leased Land is safe and that the damaged Home does not constitute a danger to persons or property. If Homeowner, based on professional estimates, determines either (a) that full repair and restoration is physically impossible, or (b) that the available insurance proceeds will pay for less than the full cost of necessary repairs and that Homeowner cannot otherwise afford to cover the balance of the cost of repairs, then Homeowner shall notify CLT of this problem, and CLT may then help to resolve the problem. Methods used to resolve the problem may include efforts to increase the available insurance proceeds, efforts to reduce the cost of necessary repairs, efforts to arrange affordable financing covering the costs of repair not covered by insurance proceeds, and any other methods agreed upon by both Homeowner and CLT. If Homeowner and CLT cannot agree on a way of restoring the Home in the absence of adequate insurance proceeds, then Homeowner may give CLT written notice of intent to terminate the Lease. The date of actual termination shall be no less than 60 days after the date of Homeowner's notice of intent to terminate. Upon termination, any insurance proceeds payable to Homeowner for damage to the Home shall be paid as follows. FIRST, to the expenses of their collection; SECOND, to any Permitted Mortgagee(s), to the extent required by the Permitted Mortgage(s); THIRD, to the expenses of enclosing or razing the remains of the Home and clearing debris; FOURTH, to the CLT for any amounts owed under this Lease; FIFTH, to the Homeowner, up to an amount equal to the Purchase Option Price, as of the day prior to the loss, less any amounts paid with respect to the second, third, and fourth clauses above; SIXTH, the balance, if any, to the CLT. 9.6 WHAT HAPPENS IF SOME OR ALL OF THE LAND IS TAKEN FOR PUBLIC USE. If all of the Leased Land is taken by eminent domain or otherwise for public purposes, or if so much of the Leased Land is taken that the Home is lost or damaged beyond repair, the Lease shall terminate as of the date when Homeowner is required to give up possession of the Leased Land. Upon such termination, the entire amount of any award(s) paid shall be allocated in the way described in Section 9.5 above for insurance proceeds. In the event of a taking of a portion of the Leased Land that does not result in damage to the Home or significant reduction in the usefulness or desirability of the Leased Land for residential purposes, then any monetary compensation for such taking shall be allocated entirely to CLT. In the event of a taking of a portion of the Leased Land that results in damage to the Home only to such an extent that the Home can reasonably be restored to a residential use consistent with this Lease, then the damage shall be treated as damage is treated in Section 9.5 above, and monetary compensation shall be allocated as insurance proceeds are to be allocated under Section 9.5. 9.7 IF PART OF THE LAND IS TAKEN, THE LEASE FEE MAY BE REDUCED. In the event of any taking that reduces the size of the Leased Land but does not result in the -15- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 termination of the Lease, CLT shall reassess the fair rental value of the remaining Land and shall adjust the Lease Fee if necessary to assure that the monthly fee does not exceed the monthly fair rental value of the Land for use as restricted by the Lease. 9.8 IF LEASE IS TERMINATED BY DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION OR TAKING, CLT MAY TRY TO HELP HOMEOWNER BUY ANOTHER CLT HOME. If this Lease is terminated as a result of damage, destruction or taking, except if arising from or in connection with an act or omission by Homeowner or Homeowner's invitee, CLT shall take reasonable steps to allow Homeowner to purchase another home on another parcel of leased land owned by CLT if such home can reasonably be made available. If Homeowner purchases such a home, Homeowner agrees to apply any proceeds or award received by Homeowner to the purchase of the home. Homeowner understands that there are numerous reasons why it may not be possible to make such a home available, and shall have no claim against CLT if such a home is not made available. ARTICLE 10: Transfer of the Home 10.1 INTENT OF THIS ARTICLE IS TO PRESERVE AFFORDABILITY: Homeowner and CLT agree that the provisions of this Article 10 are intended to preserve the affordability of the Home for lower income households and expand access to homeownership opportunities for such households. 10.2 HOMEOWNER MAY TRANSFER HOME ONLY TO CLT OR QUALIFIED PERSONS: Homeowner may transfer the Home only to the CLT or an Income -Qualified Person as defined below or otherwise only as explicitly permitted by the provisions of this Article 10.

Any other heirs, legatees or devisees of Homeowner, in addition to submitting Letters of Agreement and Attorney's Acknowledgment as provided above, must demonstrate to CLT's satisfaction that they are Income -Qualified Persons as defined above. If they cannot demonstrate that they are Income -Qualified Persons, they shall not be entitled to possession of the Home but must transfer the Home in accordance with the provisions of this Article. 10.4 HOMEOWNER MUST GIVE NOTICE OF INTENT TO SELL: In the event that Homeowner wishes to sell Homeowner's Property, Homeowner shall notify CLT, in writing, of such wish (the Intent -to -Sell Notice).

Upon receipt of an Intent -to -Sell Notice from Homeowner, CLT shall have the option to purchase the Home at the Purchase Option Price calculated as set forth below. The Purchase Option is designed to further the purpose of preserving the affordability of the Home for succeeding Income -Qualified Persons while taking fair account of the investment by the Homeowner. If CLT elects to purchase the Home, CLT shall exercise the Purchase Option by notifying Homeowner, in writing, of such election (the Notice of Exercise of Option) within forty-five (45) days of the receipt of the Intent -to -Sell Notice, or the Option shall expire. Having given such notice, CLT may either proceed to purchase the Home directly or may assign the Purchase Option to an Income -Qualified Person. The purchase (by CLT or CLT's assignee) must be completed within sixty (60) days of CLT's Notice of Exercise of Option, or Homeowner may sell the Home and Homeowner's rights to the Leased Land as provided in Section 10.7 below. The time permitted for the completion of the purchase may be extended by mutual agreement of CLT and Homeowner. 10.6 IF PURCHASE OPTION EXPIRES, HOMEOWNER MAY SELL ON CERTAIN TERMS: If the Purchase Option has expired or if CLT has failed to complete the purchase within the sixty-day period allowed by Section 10.5 above, Homeowner may sell the Home to any Income -Qualified Person for not more than the then applicable Purchase Option Price. If Homeowner has made diligent efforts to sell the Home for at least six months after the expiration of the Purchase Option (or six months after the expiration of such sixty-day period) and the Home still has not been sold, the CLT once again retains the right to exercise its Purchase Option as outline in section 10.5 above. If the CLT fails to exercise that right and the Home remains unsold, the Homeowner may then sell the Home, for a price no greater than the then applicable Purchase Option Price, to any party regardless of whether that party is an Income -Qualified Person. 10.7 AFTER ONE YEAR CLT SHALL HAVE POWER OF ATTORNEY TO CONDUCT SALE: If CLT does not exercise its option and complete the purchase of Homeowner's Property as described above, and if Homeowner (a) is not then residing in the Home and (b) continues to hold Homeowner's Property out for sale but is unable to locate a buyer and -17- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 execute a binding purchase and sale agreement within one year of the date of the Intent to Sell Notice, Homeowner does hereby appoint CLT its attorney in fact to seek a buyer, negotiate a reasonable price that furthers the purposes of this Lease, sell the property, and pay to the Homeowner the proceeds of sale, minus CLT's costs of sale and any other sums owed CLT by Homeowner. 10.8 PURCHASE OPTION PRICE EQUALS LESSER OF APPRAISED VALUE OF HOMEOWNER'S OWNERSHIP INTEREST OR FORMULA PRICE: In no event may the Home be sold for a price that exceeds the Purchase Option Price. The Purchase Option Price shall be the lesser of (a) the Appraised Value of Homeowner's Ownership Interest at Resale calculated in accordance with Section 10.9 below or (b) the Formula Price calculated in accordance with Section 10.10 below. If CLT does not choose to commission an appraisal to determine the appraised value of Homeowner's Ownership Interest, then the Purchase Option Price shall be the Formula. Price. 10.9 HOW THE VALUE OF HOMEOWNER'S OWNERSHIP INTEREST IS DETERMINED: If CLT believes that the value of Homeowner's Ownership Interest at Resale may be less than the Formula Price, CLT may, within 15 days of receiving Homeowner's Notice of Intent to Sell, commission a market valuation of the Leased Land and the Home to be performed by a duly licensed appraiser acceptable to CLT. CLT shall pay the cost of such Appraisal. The Appraisal shall be conducted by analysis and comparison of comparable properties as though title to Land and Home were held in fee simple absolute by a single party, disregarding all of the restrictions of this Lease on the use, occupancy and transfer of the property. Copies of the Appraisal are to be provided to both CLT and Homeowner. CLT and Homeowner agree that, at the time when Homeowner purchased the Home and executed the Lease with the CLT, the appraised market value of the Home and Leased Land was $ (the "Initial Value), as documented by the appraiser's report attached to this Lease as Exhibit INITIAL APPRAISAL. CLT and Homeowner further agree that Homeowner's Base Price was $ , and that this amount equals % of the Initial Value (the Ratio of Base Price to Initial Value) The Value of Homeowner's Ownership Interest at Resale then equals the appraised value of the Home and Leased Land at resale multiplied by the Ratio of Base Price to Initial Value. 10.10 HOW THE FORMULA PRICE IS CALCULATED: The Formula Price shall be equal to the amount of Homeowner's Base Price (which CLT and Homeowner agree is $ ) plus 1.75% per year, simple interest. As an example, assume the Homeowner paid $170,000 for his or her interest in the Home. Then the resale price would be: Year Value Appreciation Purchase Year 2018 Resale Year 2023 Resale Year 2028 -18- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 Resale Year 1 2033 10.11 QUALIFIED PURCHASER SHALL RECEIVE NEW LEASE: The CLT shall issue a new lease to any person who purchases the Home in accordance with the terms of this Article 10. The terms of such lease shall be the same as those of new leases issued to homebuyers at that time for land not previously leased by the CLT. 10.12 HOMEOWNER AND PURCHASER PAY LEASE TERMINATION FEE. When the Homeowner sells the home, the Homeowner will pay a Lease Termination Fee of 3% to the CLT, out of the proceeds of the sale of the home. In addition, the price to be paid by the Purchaser shall include, in addition to the Purchase Option Price, at the discretion of the CLT, an increase of up to 3% to pay for the Purchaser's portion of the lease termination fee. The purpose of the Lease Termination Fee is to compensate the CLT for carrying out its responsibilities with regard to the transaction. 10.13 HOMEOWNER REQUIRED TO MAKE NECESSARY REPAIRS AT TRANSFER: The Homeowner is required to make necessary repairs when Homebuyer voluntarily transfers the Home as follows: a) The person purchasing the Home ("Buyer") shall, prior to purchasing the Home, hire at Buyer's sole expense a certified and licensed (if a license is required by the State of Utah) home inspector with a current Home Inspector certification and license to assess the condition of the Home and prepare a written report of the condition ("Inspection Report"). The Homeowner shall cooperate fully with the inspection. b) The Buyer shall provide a copy of the Inspection Report to Buyer's lender (if any), the Homeowner, and the CLT within 10 days after receiving the Inspection Report. c) Homeowner shall repair specific reported defects or conditions necessary to bring the Home into full compliance with Sections 4.2 and 7.5 above prior to transferring the Home. d) Homeowner shall bear the full cost of the necessary repairs and replacements. However, upon Homeowner's written request, the CLT may allow the Homeowner to pay all or a portion of the repair costs after transfer, from Homeowner's proceeds of sale, if Homeowner cannot afford to pay such costs prior to the transfer. In such event, either (i) 150% of the unpaid estimated cost of repairs or (ii) 100% of the unpaid cost of completed repairs shall be withheld from Homeowner's proceeds of sale in a CLT-approved escrow account. Also, upon Homeowner's written request, CLT may, at its discretion, agree to release funds from the Repair Reserve Fund to cover some or all of the cost of such repairs, provided that such use of the Reserve is in full compliance with Section 7.6 above. e) Homeowner shall allow CLT, Buyer, and Buyer's building inspector and lender's representative to inspect the repairs prior to closing to determine that the repairs have been satisfactorily completed. f) Upon sale or other transfer, Homeowner shall either (i) transfer the Home with all originally purchased appliances or replacements in the Home in good working order or (ii) reduce the Purchase Option Price by the market value of any such appliances that are not left with the Home in good working order. -19- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 ARTICLE 11: Reserved ARTICLE 12: Default 12.1 WHAT HAPPENS IF HOMEOWNER FAILS TO MAKE PAYMENTS TO THE CLT THAT ARE REQUIRED BY THE LEASE: It shall be an event of default if Homeowner fails to pay the Lease Fee or other charges required by the terms of this Lease and such failure is not cured by Homeowner or a Permitted Mortgagee within thirty (30) days after notice of such failure is given by CLT to Homeowner and Permitted Mortgagee. However, if Homeowner makes a good faith partial payment of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the amount owed during the 30-day cure period, then the cure period shall be extended by an additional 30 days. 12.2 WHAT HAPPENS IF HOMEOWNER VIOLATES OTHER (NONMONETARY) TERMS OF THE LEASE: It shall be an event of default if Homeowner fails to abide by any other requirement or restriction stated in this Lease, and such failure is not cured by Homeowner or a Permitted Mortgagee within sixty (60) days after notice of such failure is given by CLT to Homeowner and Permitted Mortgagee. However, if Homeowner or Permitted Mortgagee has begun to cure such default within the 60-day cure period and is continuing such cure with due diligence but cannot complete the cure within the 60-day cure period, the cure period shall be extended for as much additional time as may be reasonably required to complete the cure. 12.3 WHAT HAPPENS IF HOMEOWNER DEFAULTS AS A RESULT OF JUDICIAL PROCESS: It shall be an event of default if the estate hereby created is taken on execution or by other process of law, or if Homeowner is judicially declared bankrupt or insolvent according to law, or if any assignment is made of the property of Homeowner for the benefit of creditors, or if a receiver, trustee in involuntary bankruptcy or other similar officer is appointed to take charge of any substantial part of the Home or Homeowner's interest in the Leased Land by a court of competent jurisdiction, or if a petition is filed for the reorganization of Homeowner under any provisions of the Bankruptcy Act now or hereafter enacted, or if Homeowner files a petition for such reorganization, or for arrangements under any provision of the Bankruptcy Act now or hereafter enacted and providing a plan for a debtor to settle, satisfy or extend the time for payment of debts. 12.4 A DEFAULT (UNCURED VIOLATION) GIVES CLT THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE THE LEASE OR EXERCISE ITS PURCHASE OPTION: a) TERMINATION: In the case of any of the events of default described above, CLT may terminate this lease and initiate summary proceedings under applicable law against Homeowner, and CLT shall have all the rights and remedies consistent with such laws and resulting court orders to enter the Leased Land and Home and repossess the entire Leased Land and Home, and expel Homeowner and those claiming rights through Homeowner. In addition, CLT shall have such additional rights and remedies to recover from Homeowner arrears of rent and damages from any preceding breach of any covenant of this Lease. If this Lease is terminated by CLT pursuant to an Event of Default, then, as provided in Section 7.7 above, upon thus assuming title to the Home, CLT shall pay to Homeowner and any Permitted Mortgagee an amount equal to the Purchase Option Price calculated in accordance with -20- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 Section 10.9 above, as of the time of reversion of ownership, less the total amount of any unpaid Lease Fee and any other amounts owed to the CLT under the terms of this Lease and all reasonable costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by CLT in pursuit of its remedies under this Lease. If CLT elects to terminate the Lease, then the Permitted Mortgagee shall have the right (subject to Article 8 above and the attached Exhibit: Permitted Mortgages) to postpone and extend the specified date for the termination of the Lease for a period sufficient to enable the Permitted Mortgagee or its designee to acquire Homeowner's interest in the Home and the Leased Land by foreclosure of its mortgage or otherwise. b) EXERCISE OF OPTION: In the case of any of the events of default described above, Homeowner hereby grants to the CLT (or its assignee) the option to purchase the Home for the Purchase Option Price as such price is defined in Article 10 above. Within thirty (30) days after the expiration of any applicable cure period as established in Sections 12.1 or 12.2 above or within 30 days after any of the events constituting an Event of Default under Section 12.3 above, CLT shall notify the Homeowner and the Permitted Mortgagee(s) of its decision to exercise its option to purchase under this Section 12.4(b). Not later than ninety (90) days after the CLT gives notice to the Homeowner of the CLT's intent to exercise its option under this Section 12.4(a), the CLT or its assignee shall purchase the Home for the Purchase Option Price. 12.5 WHAT HAPPENS IF CLT DEFAULTS: CLT shall in no event be in default in the performance of any of its obligations under the Lease unless and until CLT has failed to perform such obligations within sixty (60) days, or such additional time as is reasonably required to correct any default, after notice by Homeowner to CLT properly specifying CLT's failure to perform any such obligation. ARTICLE 13: Mediation and Arbitration 13.1 If a dispute arises between CLT and Homeowner, either party may initiate the dispute resolution process by delivering to the other party a written notice of the issue(s) and a proposal to settle the dispute. The recipient shall respond to the proposed solution within 10 days, and shall either agree to the proposed solution or propose an alternative solution. The parties shall continue to correspond until a settlement has been reached or the parties realize that the correspondence will not settle the dispute. The parties agree to make a good faith effort to settle the dispute.

The time and place, within 14 days of the second party's response, shall be mutually agreeable to both parties.

I will be leasing a parcel of land from the CLT and will be buying the home that sits on that parcel of land. I will therefore become what is described in the Lease as a "the Homeowner." I have had the opportunity to consult with legal counsel to explain to me the terms and conditions of this transaction. I may choose to waive the right to consult with legal counsel. I understand the terms and conditions of this transaction will affect my rights as a CLT homeowner, now and in the future. In particular I understand and agree with the following points. One of the goals of the CLT is to keep CLT homes affordable for lower income households from one CLT homeowner to the next. I support this goal as a CLT homeowner and as a member of the CLT. The terms and conditions of my Lease will keep my home affordable for future "income - qualified persons" (as defined in the Lease). If and when I want to sell my home, the lease requires that I sell it either to the CLT or to another income -qualified person. The terms and conditions of the lease also limit the price for which I can sell the home, in order to keep it affordable for such income -qualified persons. I understand that this means that the amount of equity I can realize in a sale of my home is limited. It is also a goal of the CLT to promote resident ownership of CLT homes. For this reason, my Lease requires that, if I and my family move out of our home permanently, we must sell it. We cannot continue to own it as absentee owners. I understand that I can leave my home to my child or children or other members of my household and that, after my death, they can own the home for as long as they want to live in it and abide by the terms of the Lease, or they can sell it on the terms permitted by the Lease. As a CLT homeowner and a member of the CLT, it is my desire to see the terms of the Lease and related documents honored. I consider these terms fair to me and others.

NOTARY PUBLIC, residing in Salt Lake County, Utah -30- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 Exhibit PERMITTED MORTGAGES The rights and provisions set forth in this Exhibit shall be understood to be provisions of Section 8.2 of the Lease. All terminology used in this Exhibit shall have the meaning assigned to it in the Lease. A. OBLIGATIONS OF PERMITTED MORTGAGEE. Any Permitted Mortgagee shall be bound by each of the following requirements unless the particular requirement is removed, contradicted or modified by a rider to this Lease signed by the Homeowner and the CLT to modify the terms of the Lease during the term of the Permitted Mortgage. 1. If Permitted Mortgagee sends a notice of default to the Homeowner because the Homeowner has failed to comply with the terms of the Permitted Mortgage, the Permitted Mortgagee shall, at the same time, send a copy of that notice to the CLT. Upon receiving a copy of the notice of default and within that period of time in which the Homeowner has a right to cure such default (the "cure period"), the CLT shall have the right to cure the default on the Homeowner's behalf, provided that all current payments due the Permitted Mortgagee since the notice of default was given are made to the Permitted Mortgagee. 2. If, after the cure period has expired, the Permitted Mortgagee intends to accelerate the note secured by the Permitted Mortgage or begin foreclosure proceedings under the Permitted Mortgage, the Permitted Mortgagee shall first notify CLT of its intention to do so, and CLT shall then have the right, upon notifying the Permitted Mortgagee within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice, to acquire the Permitted Mortgage by paying off the debt secured by the Permitted Mortgage. 3. If the Permitted Mortgagee acquires title to the Home through foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Permitted Mortgagee shall give CLT written notice of such acquisition and CLT shall then have an option to purchase the Home from the Permitted Mortgagee for the full amount owing to the Permitted Mortgagee under the Permitted Mortgage. To exercise this option to purchase, CLT must give written notice to the Permitted Mortgagee of CLT's intent to purchase the Home within thirty (30) days following CLT's receipt of the Permitted Mortgagee's notice. CLT must then complete the purchase of the Home within sixty (60) days of having given written notice of its intent to purchase. If CLT does not complete the purchase within this 60-day period, the Permitted Mortgagee shall be free to sell the Home to another person. 4. Nothing in the Permitted Mortgage or related documents shall be construed as giving Permitted Mortgagee a claim on CLT's interest in the Leased Land, or as assigning any form of liability to the CLT with regard to the Leased Land, the Home, or the Permitted Mortgage. 5. Nothing in the Permitted Mortgage or related documents shall be construed as rendering CLT or any subsequent Mortgagee of CLT's interest in this Lease, or their respective heirs, executors, successors or assigns, personally liable for the payment of the debt secured by the Permitted Mortgage or any part thereof. 6. The Permitted Mortgagee shall not look to CLT or CLT's interest in the Leased Land, but will look solely to Homeowner, Homeowner's interest in the Leased Land, and the Home for the payment of the debt secured thereby or any part thereof. (It is the intention of the parties -31- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 hereto that CLT's consent to such the Permitted Mortgage shall be without any liability on the part of CLT for any deficiency judgment.) 7. In the event any part of the Security is taken in condemnation or by right of eminent domain, the proceeds of the award shall be paid over to the Permitted Mortgagee in accordance with the provisions of ARTICLE 9 hereof. 8. CLT shall not be obligated to execute an assignment of the Lease Fee or other rent payable by Homeowner under the terms of this Lease. B. RIGHTS OF PERMITTED MORTGAGEE. The rights of a Permitted Mortgagee as referenced under Section 8.6 of the Lease to which this Exhibit is attached shall be as set forth below. 1. Any Permitted Mortgagee shall, without further consent by CLT, have the right to (a) cure any default under this Lease, and perform any obligation required under this Lease, such cure or performance being effective as if it had been performed by Homeowner; (b) acquire and convey, assign, transfer and exercise any right, remedy or privilege granted to Homeowner by this Lease or otherwise by law, subject to the provisions, if any, in the Permitted Mortgage, which may limit any exercise of any such right, remedy or privilege; and (c) rely upon and enforce any provisions of the Lease to the extent that such provisions are for the benefit of a Permitted Mortgagee. 2. A Permitted Mortgagee shall not be required, as a condition to the exercise of its rights under the Lease, to assume personal liability for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Homeowner under the Lease. Any such payment or performance or other act by Permitted Mortgagee under the Lease shall not be construed as an agreement by Permitted Mortgagee to assume such personal liability except to the extent Permitted Mortgagee actually takes possession of the Home and Leased Land. In the event Permitted Mortgagee does take possession of the Home and Leased Land and thereupon transfers such property, any such transferee shall be required to enter into a written agreement assuming such personal liability and upon any such assumption the Permitted Mortgagee shall automatically be released from personal liability under the Lease. 3. In the event that title to the estates of both CLT and Homeowner are acquired at any time by the same person or persons, no merger of these estates shall occur without the prior written declaration of merger by Permitted Mortgagee, so long as Permitted Mortgagee owns any interest in the Security or in a Permitted Mortgage. 4. If the Lease is terminated for any reason, or in the event of the rejection or disaffirmance of the Lease pursuant to bankruptcy law or other law affecting creditors' rights, CLT shall enter into a new lease for the Leased Land with the Permitted Mortgagee (or with any party designated by the Permitted Mortgagee, subject to CLT's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), not more than thirty (30) days after the request of the Permitted Mortgagee. Such lease shall be for the remainder of the term of the Lease, effective as of the date of such termination, rejection or disaffirmance, and upon all the terms and provisions contained in the Lease. However, the Permitted Mortgagee shall make a written request to CLT for such new lease within sixty (60) days after the effective date of such termination, -32- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 rejection or disaffirmance, as the case may be. Such written request shall be accompanied by a copy of such new lease, duly executed and acknowledged by the Permitted Mortgagee or the party designated by the Permitted Mortgagee to be the Homeowner thereunder. Any new lease made pursuant to this Section shall have the same priority with respect to other interests in the Land as the Lease. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination, rejection or disaffirmance of the Lease and shall continue in full effect thereafter to the same extent as if this Section were independent and an independent contract made by CLT, Homeowner and the Permitted Mortgagee. 5. The CLT shall have no right to terminate the Lease during such time as the Permitted Mortgagee has commenced foreclosure in accordance with the provisions of the Lease and is diligently pursuing the same. 6. In the event that CLT sends a notice of default under the Lease to Homeowner, CLT shall also send a notice of Homeowner's default to Permitted Mortgagee. Such notice shall be given in the manner set forth in Section 14.2 of the Lease to the Permitted Mortgagee at the address which has been given by the Permitted Mortgagee to CLT by a written notice to CLT sent in the manner set forth in said Section 14.2 of the Lease. 7.

Before becoming effective, any amendments to this Lease must be approved in writing by Permitted Mortgagee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Permitted Mortgagee has neither approved nor rejected a proposed amendment within 60 days of its submission to Permitted Mortgagee, then the proposed amendment shall be deemed to be approved. C.

A Standard Permitted Mortgage Agreement, as identified in Section 8.4 of this Lease, shall be written as follows, and shall be signed by Mortgagee and Homeowner. This Agreement is made by and among: (Mortgagee) and ("Homeowner'), Whereas: a) __CLT (the "CLT') and Homeowner have entered, or are entering, into a ground lease ("the Lease'), conveying to Homeowner a leasehold interest in the Land located at ("the Leased Land'); and Homeowner has purchased, or is purchasing, the Home located on the Leased Land ("the Home'). b) The Mortgagee has been asked to provide certain financing to the Homeowner, and is being granted concurrently herewith a mortgage and security interest (the "Mortgage') in the Leased Land and Home, all as more particularly set forth in the Mortgage, attached -33- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 hereto as Schedule A. c) The Ground Lease states that the Homeowner may mortgage the Leased Land only with the written consent of CLT. The Ground Lease furtherprovides that CLT is required to give such consent only if the Mortgagee signs this Standard Permitted Mortgage Agreement and thereby agrees to certain conditions that are stipulated herein ("the Stipulated Conditions'). Now, therefore, the Homeowner/Mortgagorand the Mortgagee hereby agree that the terms and conditions of the Mortgage shall include the Stipulated Conditions stated below. Stipulated Conditions: 1) If Mortgagee sends a notice of default to the Homeowner because the Homeowner has failed to comply with the terms of the Mortgage, the Mortgagee shall, at the same time, send a copy of that notice to the CLT. Upon receiving a copy of the notice of default and within thatperiod of time in which the Homeowner has a right to cure such default (the "cure period'), the CLT shall have the right to cure the default on the Homeowner's behalf, provided that all currentpayments due the Permitted Mortgagee since the notice of default was given are made to the Mortgagee. 2) If, after such cure period, the Mortgagee intends to accelerate the note secured by the Mortgage or initiate foreclosure proceedings under the Mortgage, in accordance with the provisions of the Lease, the Mortgagee shall first note CLT of its intention to do so and CLT shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon notifying the Mortgagee within thirty (30) days of receipt of said notice, to purchase the Mortgagee loans and to take assignment of the Mortgage. 3) If the Mortgagee acquires title to the Home and Homeowner's interest in the Leased Land through foreclosure or acceptance ofa deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Mortgagee shall give the CLT written notice of such acquisition and the CLT shall have an option to purchase the Home and Homeowner's interest in the Leased Land from the Mortgagee for the full amount owing to the Mortgagee; provided, however, that the CLT notifies the Mortgagee in writing of the CLT's intent to make such purchase within thirty (30) days following the CLT's receipt of the Mortgagee's notice ofsuch acquisition of the Home and Homeowner's interest in the Leased Land; furtherprovided that CLTshall complete such purchase within sixty (60) days ofhaving given written notice of its intent to purchase; and provided that, if the CLT does not complete the purchase within such period, the Mortgagee shall be free to sell the Home and Homeowner's interest in the Leased Land to anotherperson; 4) Nothing in the Mortgage or related documents shall be construed as giving the Mortgagee a claim on CLT's interest in the Leased Land, or as assigning any form of liability to the CLT with regard to the Leased Land, the Home, or the Mortgage. S) Nothing in the Mortgage shall be construed as rendering CLT or any subsequent holder of the CLT's interest in and to the Lease, or their respective heirs, executors, successors or assigns, personally liable for the payment of the debt evidenced bysuch note and such Mortgage or any part thereof. -34- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 6) The Mortgagee shall not look to CLT or CLT's interest in the Leased Land, but will look solely to Homeowner and Homeowner's interest in the Leased Land and the Home for the payment of the debt secured by the Mortgage. (It is the intention of the parties hereto that CLT's consent to the Mortgage shall be without any liability on the part of CLT for any deficiency judgment.) 7) In the event that any part of the Leased Landis taken in condemnation or by right of eminent domain, the proceeds of the award shall be paid over to the Mortgagee in accordance with the provisions ofArticle 9 of the Lease. 8) Nothing in the Mortgage shall obligate CLT to execute an assignment of the Lease Fee or other rentpayable by Homeowner under the terms of this Lease. for Mortgagee Date: __for Homeowner/Mortgagor Date: -35- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 Exhibit FIRST REFUSAL Whenever any parry under the Lease shall have a right of first refusal as to certain property, the following procedures shall apply. If the owner of the property offering it for sale ("Offering Party") shall within the term of the Lease receive a bona fide third party offer to purchase the property which such Offering Parry is willing to accept, the holder of the right of first refusal (the "Holder") shall have the following rights: a) Offering Parry shall give written notice of such offer ("the Notice of Offer") to Holder setting forth (a) the name and address of the prospective purchaser of the property, (b) the purchase price offered by the prospective purchaser and (c) all other terms and conditions of the sale. Holder shall have a period of forty-five (45) days after the receipt of the Notice of Offer ("the Election Period") within which to exercise the right of first refusal by giving notice of intent to purchase the property ("the Notice of Intent to Purchase") for the same price and on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Notice of Offer. Such Notice of Intent to Purchase shall be given in writing to the Offering Party within the Election Period. b) If Holder exercises the right to purchase the property, such purchase shall be completed within sixty (60) days after the Notice of Intent to Purchase is given by Holder (or if the Notice of Offer shall specify a later date for closing, such date) by performance of the terms and conditions of the Notice of Offer, including payment of the purchase price provided therein. c) Should Holder fail to exercise the right of first refusal within the Election Period, then the Offering Party shall have the right (subject to any other applicable restrictions in the Lease) to go forward with the sale which the Offering Party desires to accept, and to sell the property within one (1) year following the expiration of the Election Period on terms and conditions which are not materially more favorable to the purchaser than those set forth in the Notice. If the sale is not consummated within such one-year period, the Offering Party's right so to sell shall end, and all of the foregoing provisions of this section shall be applied again to any future offer, all as aforesaid. If a sale is consummated within such one-year period, the purchaser shall purchase subject to the Holder having a renewed right of first refusal in said property. -36- Salt Lake City CLT Lease 2017 Other Exhibits to be attached as Appropriate -37- SALT LAKE CITY SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENTS TO 2020-2024 CONSOLIDATED PLAN 2020-2024 CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN 2020-2021 ACTION PLAN MAYOR ERIN MENDENHALL CITY COUNCIL DISTRICT 1: JAMES ROGERS DISTRICT 2, VICE CHAIR: ANDREW JOHNSTON DISTRICT 3, CHAIR: CHRIS WHARTON DISTRICT 4: ANALIA VALDEMOROS DISTRICT 5: DARIN MANO DISTRICT 6: DAN DUGAN DISTRICT 7: AMY FOWLER Preparedby S A L T L A K E C I T Y HOUSING and NEIGHBORHOOD DEVELOPMENT DIVISION COMMUNITY and NEIGHBORHOODS DEPARTMENT 1 SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT, CON PLAN 20-24 & AAP 20-21 September 10, 2020 PY 2020 Salt Lake City CARES Act Substantial Amendment TO ADD COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT-CORONAVIRUS (CDBG-CV) EMERGENCY SOLUTIONS GRANT-CORONAVIRUS (ESG-CV) HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES FOR PEOPLE WITH AIDS/HIV-CORONAVIRUS (HOPWA-CV) SUMMARY Substantial Amendments to the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, 2020-2024 Citizen Participation Plan, and 2020-2021 Annual Action Plan for utilization of CARES HUD -CV funds for coronavirus response and recovery. The requested amendments will allow the award of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Securities Act (CARES Act) funding to Salt Lake City, a total of $7,138,203 for coronavirus (CV) response and recovery. These funds will be used by Salt Lake City for eligible activities and services in accordance with Community Development Block Grant (CDBG-CV), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG-CV) and Housing Opportunities for People With AIDS/HIV (HOPWA CV) HUD regulations and CARES Act waivers. CARES HUD-CV1 funds were allocated to Salt Lake City on April 2, 2020 via notification from HUD Acting Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development. On June 9, 2020, Salt Lake City was notified of an additional allocation of ESG-CV2 funds. On September 11, 2020, Salt Lake City was notified of an additional allocation of CDBG-CV3 funds. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG-CV), first round $2,064,298, third round $999,551 Emergency Solutions Grant (FSG-CV), first round $1,040,462 and second round $2,946,449 Housing Opportunities for People With AIDS/HIV (HOPWA-CV), first round $87,443 Housing and Neighborhood Development (HAND) staff will administer the CARES HUD -CV funds. HAND staff will communicate with the Administration and City Council about the CARES HUD -CV allocation process. 11 M IMOLTA 21All IeRq On March 27, 2020, the United States Congress passed The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) (H.R. 748, Public Law 116-136), which makes available $5 billion in supplemental Community Development Block Grant (CDBG-CV) funding, $1 billion for Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG-CV) and $53.7 million for Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA-CV) grants to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus. 2 SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT, CON PLAN 20-24 & AAP 20-21 The CARES Act stipulated that HUD -CV funding must not fund duplicative activities and requires tracking to ensure no other funding source could be utilized for the expense. Grantees may use HUD -CV funds for a range of activities to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus. Funds must serve low - to moderate -income individuals or households, underserved communities or populations, and align with HUD National Objectives. PROGRAM YEAR (PY) 2020 SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT Due to the City's allocated CARES HUD -CV funding Substantial Amendments to the City's most recently adopted 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, 2020-2024 Citizen Participation Plan, and 2020-2021 Annual Action Plan are required. These Substantial Amendments has been prepared with the guidance from HUD that has been issued to date. HUD REQUIREMENTS HUD's Substantial Amendment Section 24 CFR 91.505 (b), outlines the criteria for Substantial Amendment and states "the jurisdiction shall identify in its Citizen Participation Plan the criteria it will use for determining what constitutes a Substantial Amendment. It is these Substantial Amendments that are subject to a citizen participation process, in accordance with the jurisdiction's citizen participation plan." SALT LAKE CITY2020-2024 CONSOLIDATED PLAN REQUIREMENTS Salt Lake City's Consolidated Plan for 2020-2024 Citizen Participation Plan defines a Substantial Amendment as: 1. A proposed use of funds that does not address a goal or underlying strategy identified in the governing Consolidated Plan or Annual Action Plan; or 2. Increasing funding levels for a given project by 100% or more of the previously adopted amount; or 3. Decreasing funding levels for a given project by 100% AND pivoting impacted funds to another approved use during an action plan period; or 4. A change to a regulatory requirement or additional allocated funding from the US Department of Housing & Urban Development that defines that a Substantial Amendment must be completed. Substantial Amendment to 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan: #1 Accept Additional Allocations of Funding Section SP-35, The Strategic Plan, Anticipated Resources. HUD 24 CFR 91.215 (a)(4), 91.220 (c)(1,2). Located on page 146 of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. The CARES HUD -CV allocations represent an additional allocation of funding from HUD to Salt Lake City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, thus requiring a Substantial Amendment. (See the SP-35 Anticipated Resources Appendix) The City's current 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan will be amended to reflect the additional funding and eligible uses of the grant funds. 3 SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT, CON PLAN 20-24 & AAP 20-21 Substantial Amendments to 2020-2024 Citizen Participation Plan (Appendix C of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan): #1 Shortened Public Comment Period Citizen Participation, HUD 24 CFR 91.105. Located on page 281 of the 2020-2024 Citizen Participation Plan (Appendix C of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan) Substantial Amendments are required to follow the City's Citizen Participation Plan, as outlined in the Consolidated Plan for 2020-2024, which under normal circumstances, requires a public comment period for the Substantial Amendment of thirty (30) days. However, to quickly implement the funds and activities of the CARES HUD -CV, HUD has waived that requirement with amendment to the City's Citizen Participation Plan, reducing the public comment period to five (5) days. Further, HUD is allowing the Citizen Participation Plan and the Substantial Amendment to the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and 2020 Annual Action Plan to run concurrently. Although the CARES Act has shortened the public comment period to five (5) days, Salt Lake City Ordinance requires a fourteen (14) days public comment period. Salt Lake City will utilize a fourteen (14) day public comment period for this Substantial Amendment. The City's current 2020-2024 Citizen Participation Plan will be amended to reflect this change and accept a fourteen (14) day public comment period. This Shortened Public Comment Period amendment only applies to the CARES HUD - CV allocation, and not to other funding allocated by HUD. Substantial Amendment to 2020-2021 Annual Action Plan: #1 Accept Additional Allocations of Funding Section AP-15, Expected Resources. HUD 24 CFR 91.215 (a)(4), 91.220 (c)(1,2). Located on page 33 of the 2020-2021 Annual Action Plan. A Substantial Amendment is required to accept the CARES HUD -CV. These funds represent an additional allocation of funding from HUD to Salt Lake City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and 2020-2021 Annual Action Plan. (See the AP-15 Expected Resources Appendix) The City's current 2020-2021 Annual Action Plan will be amended to reflect the additional funding and eligible uses of grant funds. PUBLIC PROCESS The 2020-2024 Citizen Participation Plan (Appendix C of the 2020-2014 Consolidated Plan) specifies the policies and procedures that encourage participation by Salt Lake City residents in the planning, implementation, and ongoing evaluation of the City's Consolidated Plan as required by the U. S. 4 SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT, CON PLAN 20-24 & AAP 20-21 Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Citizen Participation Plan encourages participation from citizens in neighborhoods that receive significant federal funding and from citizens living throughout the City. The public is invited to comment on the Substantial Amendments to the Consolidated Plan before adoption by City Council. Per the guidance outlined in Consolidated Plan announcements of a Substantial Amendment may be communicated by the following way(s): 1. Public Notice to HAND's comprehensive email/mailing list; or 2. Press Release, released through the Mayor's Office; or 3. Details will be posted on Housing and Neighborhood Development's website; or 4. Additional outreach may include utilizing the Mayor's social media platforms and other applicable forms of electronic communication, meetings, training, and noticing. In all areas, the City will look to include the use of electronic communication, meetings, training, noticing, outreach, etc. where appropriate provided it is clearly communicated for participation by the general public. Electronic draft documents of Substantial Amendments will be made available for public review and comment. Where allowable, the City will follow the required noticing of fourteen (14) calendar days. An electronic version of the Substantial Amendments to the Consolidated Plan will be posted on the City's official web site during the same period. Due to the current COVID Emergency Declaration for Salt Lake City issued by Mayor Mendenhall on March 10, 2020 and since extended to -date, Salt Lake City facilities may be closed and documents will need to be reviewed electronically and in accordance with City policy. All comments made by the public will be reviewed and analyzed by Salt Lake City Council staff and Housing and Neighborhood Development staff. Comments may be incorporated into the final Substantial Amendments document. A summary of these comments or views, and a summary of any comments or views not accepted and the reasons therefore, shall be attached to the Substantial Amendments. A copy of the Substantial Amendments will be available at www.slc.gov/HAND. Comments will be accepted from September 10 through September 23, 2020. Prior to making decisions on the Substantial Amendments the Salt Lake City Council will consider and review all public comments. Written comments may be submitted to the Council at Comments. Council(a_,slcgov.com, or to the Housing and Neighborhood Development contact at Tony. Milner(aslcgov.com. Additionally, messages may be left on the Council comment telephone number; 801-535-7654. COORDINATION WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS Salt Lake City has worked closely with Salt Lake County, the State of Utah and other community partners to ensure funds are strategically targeted to reach our most vulnerable residents who are impacted by coronavirus and programs are not duplicative. Community Partners include: • Other regional CARES HUD -CV grantees • Salt Lake City CARES HUD -CV Internal Working Group 5 SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT, CON PLAN 20-24 & AAP 20-21 • Salt Lake City's Resident Advisory Group, the Community Development and Capital Improvement Program Board • HUD Regional Office • HUD Technical Assistance Representative • National homeless and affordable housing consultants and advocacy groups HUD requires CV grantees to prevent the duplication of benefits, which means grant funds may not be used to pay costs if another source of financial assistance is available to pay that cost. HAND will work with selected community partners and track other funding and community benefits in order to prevent duplication of services.

Annual Action Plan AP-05 ExEcuTivE SUMMARY - 24 CFR 91.20O(c), 91.220(e) Introduction The 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan (AAP) identifies how Salt Lake City intends to leverage the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) funding. These four resources will provide over $8.9 million in support for low- to moderate -income households or areas of the city. Each activity funded under the 2023-24 AAP helps further a goal outlined in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan This Year-4 Annual Action Plan addresses several goals and strategies as outlined in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. These goals are briefly outlined below. Greater detail is provided in section AP-20. 1) Housing: Provide expanded housing options for all economic and demographic segments of Salt Lake City's population while diversifying the housing stock within neighborhoods. Strategies: • Support housing programs that address the needs of aging housing stock through targeting rehabilitation efforts and diversifying the housing stock within neighborhoods • Expand housing support for aging residents that ensure access to continued stable housing. • Support affordable housing development that increases the number and types of units available for income eligible residents. • Support programs that provide access to home ownership via down payment assistance, and/or housing subsidy, and/or financing. • Support rent assistance programs to emphasize stable housing as a primary strategy to prevent and end homelessness. • Support programs that provide connection to permanent housing upon exiting behavioral health programs. Support may include, but is not limited to, supporting obtaining housing via deposit and rent assistance and barrier elimination to the extent allowable to regulation. • Provide housing and essential services for persons with HIV/AIDS. Annual Action Plan 4 2) Transportation: Promote accessibility and affordability of multimodal transportation options. Strategies: • Improve bus stop amenities as a way to encourage the accessibility of public transit and enhance the experience of public transit in target areas. • Support access to transportation prioritizing very low-income and vulnerable populations. • Expand and support the installation of bike racks, stations, and amenities as a way to encourage use of alternative modes of transportation in target areas. 3) Build Community Resiliency: Build resiliency by providing tools to increase economic and/or housing stability. Strategies: • Provide job training/vocational training programs targeting low-income and vulnerable populations including, but not limited to; chronically homeless; those exiting treatment centers/programs and/or institutions; and persons with disabilities. • Economic Development efforts via supporting the improvement and visibility of small businesses through fagade improvement programs. • Provide economic development support for microenterprise businesses. • Direct financial assistance to for -profit businesses. • Expand access to early childhood education to set the stage for academic achievement, social development, and change the cycle of poverty. • Promote digital inclusion through access to digital communication technologies and the internet. • Provide support for programs that reduce food insecurity for vulnerable populations. 4) Homeless Services: Expand access to supportive programs that help ensure that homelessness is rare, brief, and non -recurring. Strategies: • Expand support for medical and dental care options for those experiencing homelessness. • Provide support for homeless services including Homeless Resource Center Operations and Emergency overflow operations. • Provide support for programs providing outreach services to address the needs of those living an unsheltered life. Annual Action Plan 5 • Expand case management support as a way to connect those experiencing homelessness with permanent housing and supportive services. 5) Behavioral Health: Provide support for low-income and vulnerable populations experiencing behavioral health concerns such as substance abuse disorders and mental health challenges. Strategies: • Expand treatment options, counseling support, and case management for those in need of mental or behavioral health services, including those with HIV/AIDS. 6) Administration Strategies: • To support the administration, coordination, and management of Salt Lake City's CDBG, ESG, HOME, and HOPWA programs. Salt Lake City's strategy for most effectively utilizing HUD funding is heavily influenced by the City's housing market study, the City's Five -Year Housing Plan, the annual Utah Comprehensive Report on Homelessness, and the adopted Salt Lake City Master Plans that highlight strategic neighborhood investment opportunities. Evaluation of past performance Salt Lake City deliberately monitors the process of advancing the strategic goals outlined in the 2020- 2024 Consolidated Plan. This plan was developed with input from many stakeholders, and it is our responsibility to report back to the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD), the residents, the community, and decision makers, the impact of these funds. As we near completion of the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan, here is an evaluation of progress during that time. In preparation for development of the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan, Salt Lake City's Housing Stability Division (HSD) reviewed Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Reports (CAPERS) submitted to HUD, as well as point -in -time data for the 2022-2023 CAPER, to be submitted to HUD after July 1, 2023. The CAPERs provide an evaluation of past performance and accomplishments in relation to established goals and priorities. The City's previous Action Plans and CAPERs can be viewed at: https://www.hudexchange.info/programs/consolidated-plan/con-plans-aaps-capers/. Annual Action Plan 6 Salt Lake City has made progress on all the goals outlined under the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plans. The 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan shows further progress will be made. In addition, the City was able to comply with statutes and regulations set by HUD. Salt Lake City will receive final reports regarding program year 2022-2023 funding after the end of the program year. This data will inform future decisions about funding allocations. This data will also be fully reflected in the upcoming Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation and Report (CAPER). Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process Citizen participation is an integral part of the Consolidated Plan & Annual Action Plan planning process, as it ensures goals and priorities are defined in the context of the community's needs and preferences. In addition, the citizen participation process provides a format to educate the community about the City's federal grant programs. To this end, Salt Lake City solicited involvement from a diverse group of stakeholders and community members during the development of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. A comprehensive public engagement process included a city-wide survey (including 2,000+ respondents), public hearings, public meetings, one-on-one meetings, stakeholder committee meetings, task force meetings, Salt Lake City internal technical committee meetings, and a public comment period. In total, over 4,000 residents participated in providing input into the Consolidated Plan. The City received input and buy -in from residents, homeless service providers, low-income service providers, anti -poverty advocates, healthcare providers, housing advocates, housing developers, housing authorities, community development organizations, educational institutions, transit authority planners, City divisions and departments, among others. For this 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan, AAP engagement efforts were combined with efforts to engage the residents of Salt Lake City for the development of a new 5-year Housing Plan. The survey was designed in a way to provide information that was useful for both efforts. A total of 287 paper surveys were completed and 3,542 online surveys were collected. For more information on the citizen participation efforts, refer to the AP-10 Consultation section. The full Engagement Report is also included as an attachment. The City held public hearings at different points in the Annual Action Plan process. The General Needs Hearing is an event open to the public to comment on community needs. HSD accepts all comments and looks to understand how federal funding can address these concerns. The City Council Public Hearing is Annual Action Plan 7 an opportunity for the public and non-profit partners to comment on how federal funding may impact their neighborhoods or the services being provided. More information about these hearings is available in the AP-12 Participation section. Summary of public comments A summary of the public comments for the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan can be found in the appendix of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. All comments received for the Consolidated Plan were considered while creating this 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan. On November 16, 2022, Housing Stability staff and members of the Community Development and Capital Improvement Program (CDCIP) resident advisory board conducted a hybrid, virtual and in -person, General Needs Hearing to hear from residents. Three residents provided comment, focused on the need for addressing mobility issues for elderly and disabled residents, preventing homelessness, and the need for mental health services. On March 21, 2023, a hybrid, virtual and in -person, City Council Public Hearing was held. In general, the comments were very positive and related to the support of specific agencies. The majority of the comments were related to the specific funding recommendations for the agencies. Topics included: homelessness, housing, supportive services, domestic violence, and behavioral health services. A public comment period for the 2023-24 funding recommendations was held from March 21, 2023, to April 18th, 2023. Additionally, the Draft AAP was made available to the public for comment between April 7, 2023, and May 10, 2023. All public comments were accepted and have been taken into consideration for the draft of the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan. Summary of comments or views not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them All public comments were accepted.

Box 145488 Salt Lake City, UT 84114-5488 AP-10 CONSULTATION - 91.100, 91.200(B), 91.215(L) Introduction The City engaged in an in-depth and collaborative effort to consult with City departments, representatives of low-income neighborhoods, non-profit and for -profit housing developers, service providers, social service agencies, homeless shelter and service providers, supportive housing and service providers, community stakeholders, community partners, and beneficiaries of entitlement programs to inform and develop the priorities and strategies contained within the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. Salt Lake City continues to engage these critical partners regularly as we look to maximize our potential impact on an annual basis. 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(1)) Annual Action Plan Salt Lake City is in regular communication with our regional funding partners Salt Lake County, Salt Lake County Continuum of Care, and the State of Utah to coordinate about available funding, and gaps in funding and/or services. Additionally, SLC staff communicate regularly with private and governmental health, mental health, and service agencies. HSD and other key City staff worked closely with regional planning groups, such as the Utah League of Cities and Towns, Wasatch Front Regional Council, Utah Housing Coalition, and the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness, as well as local service providers who provide services to individuals experiencing homelessness and/or behavioral health. The City also coordinates closely with staff from Salt Lake County and the State of Utah Office of Housing and Community Development and Homeless Services Offices. The City is also a key participant in Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness and Salt Lake County Continuum of Care. The Coalition helps coordinate the Homeless Resource Centers, homeless supportive services, and affordable housing for homeless individuals in Salt Lake County with the goal of making homelessness rare, brief, and non -recurring. City staff participate with the Coalition's Steering Committee, and various sub -committees and task groups including the coordinated entry task group. Housing Stability staff also participate with the Utah Homeless Management Information Services (HMIS) Steering Committee and the HOPWA Steering Committee. 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. Salt Lake City representatives actively participated in the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness (SLVCEH), the entity responsible for oversight of the Continuum of Care (CoC). SLVCEH's primary goal is to end homelessness in Salt Lake Valley through a system -wide commitment of resources, services, data collection, analysis, and coordination among all stakeholders. The Coalition gathers community consensus to create and fulfill established outcomes. Outcomes focus on ending homelessness particularly that of chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth. Using these goals, the Coalition partners with key stakeholders to fill the needs of the Salt Lake County Valley community. City representatives serve on the SLVCEH Steering Committee and sub -committees, and actively participated in meetings and efforts. Annual Action Plan 10 Salt Lake City representatives participate in the local Continuum of Care's (CoC) executive board and its prioritization committee specifically, so the Continuum of Care's priorities are considered during grant allocations. Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards for and evaluate outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS Allocate ESG Funds Salt Lake City representatives participate in the local Continuum of Care's executive board and its prioritization committee specifically, so the Continuum of Care's priorities are considered during Emergency Solutions Grant allocations. Also, the three local ESG funders meet regularly to coordinate ESG and CoC activities to make sure services are not being over or under funded and services being funded meet the community's needs and goals. Develop Performance Standards and Evaluate Outcomes The Salt Lake Continuum of Care and the three ESG funders share common measures to evaluate service providers. The three entities also share monitoring results of subrecipients. Efforts have been made to standardize data collection among the funding agencies. Develop Funding, Policies and Procedures for the Administration of HMIS The Salt Lake Continuum of Care contracts with the State of Utah to administer the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). All service agencies in the state are under a uniform data standard for HUD reporting and local ESG funders. All ESG funded organizations participate in HMIS. Salt Lake City staff serve on the HMIS Steering Committee to develop performance standards and evaluate outcomes for all homeless service providers located in the Salt Lake CoC.

Annual Action Plan 44 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) According to HUD standards, a Local Target Area is designed to allow for a locally targeted approach to the investment of CDBG and other federal funds. The target area for the entirety of the associated Consolidated Plan period, will be identified as, "West Side Target Area", as shown on the map below. CDBG and other federal funding will be concentrated, but not necessarily limited to, the target area. Neighborhood and community nodes will be identified and targeted to maximize community impact and drive further neighborhood investment. During this Annual Action Plan period, infrastructure projects such as transportation projects and commercial fagade improvements will be limited to this target area. Housing activities will happen city wide, however, a more concentrated marketing strategy for rehabilitation efforts will be deployed in the West Side Target Area as an opportunity to expand housing stability. SLC also uses the most current ACS Summary Data from HUD to determine eligible areas for LMA activities. SLC Target Area Salt Lake City Boundary Ord OF NO Annual Action Plan 45 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) Geographic Distribution Target Area Percentage of Funds CDBG Eligible Areas 0% City Wide 64% Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) 5% West Side Target Area 31% Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically The CDBG program's primary objective is to promote the development of viable urban communities by providing decent housing, suitable living environments and expanded economic activities to persons of low- and moderate -income. To support the CDBG program's primary objectives, Salt Lake City is taking a two -pronged approach to the distribution of funding: Direct funding to local target areas to build capacity and expand resources within concentrated areas of poverty. Utilize funding city wide, in accordance with meeting a national objective, to support the city's most vulnerable populations. This includes the chronically homeless, homeless families, food -insecure individuals, persons with disabilities, persons living with HIV/AIDS, victims of domestic violence and the low-income elderly. The ESG program's primary objective is to assist individuals and families regain housing stability after experiencing a housing or homelessness crisis. ESG funding is distributed within the Salt Lake Continuum of Care to support emergency shelter, day services, resource centers, rapid re -housing, and homeless prevention activities. The Salt Lake Continuum of Care spans the entirety of Salt Lake County. The HOME program's primary objective is to create affordable housing opportunities for low-income households. HOME funding is distributed city wide to provide direct financial assistance to homebuyers, tenant -based rental assistance, acquisition, and rehabilitation. The HOPWA program's primary objective is to provide housing assistance and related supportive services to persons living with HIV/AIDS and their families. HOPWA funding is distributed throughout the Salt Lake City MSA, which is comprised of two counties, Salt Lake and Tooele, to provide project -based rental assistance, tenant -based rental assistance, short-term rental assistance, and supportive services. Annual Action Plan 46 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) The majority of funding is utilized in Salt Lake County, as most HIV/AIDS services are located in the Salt Lake area. The Target Area was identified through an extensive process that analyzed local poverty rates, low -and moderate -income rates, neighborhood conditions, citizen input, and available resources. Salt Lake City allows service providers to utilize their funds according to governing regulations of the grants. CDBG and HOME funds can be used city wide. Salt Lake City did not receive any LMA applications this year, which are limited to CDBG Eligible Areas. ESG funds can be used within the Salt Lake CoC and HOPWA funds can be used in the Salt Lake MSA. Discussion The City's west side and central corridor areas continue to have economic disparities that can be addressed through investments of CDBG and other funding. While not limited to the target area, housing rehabilitation and other services will be heavily marketed in the target area. Throughout this plan period and beyond, the City will leverage and strategically target funding for neighborhood improvements, transportation improvements, and economic development to maximize impact within targeted neighborhoods. AP-55 AFFORDABLE HOUSING - 91.220(G) Introduction The Salt Lake City's Housing Stability Division is committed to lessening the current housing crisis that is affecting Salt Lake City, as in all U.S. cities, through a range of robust policy and project initiatives to improve housing affordability for all residents, with an emphasis on households earning 40% AMI or below. One Year Goals for the Number of Households to be Supported Homeless 29 Non -Homeless 275 Special -Needs 420 Total 724 Annual Action Plan 47 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) One Year Goals for the Number of Households Supported Through Rental Assistance 215 The Production of New Units 1 Rehab of Existing Units 505 Acquisition of Existing Units 3 Total 724 Discussion Salt Lake City utilizes a data -driven strategy for ensuring long-term affordability and preservation, while balancing the unique need of the City's neighborhoods. The City will support affordable housing activities through use of all four CPD grant programs: CDBG, ESG, HOME, and HOPWA. Activities will be targeted to individuals and families from 0-80% AMI and will include: • Tenant -based rental assistance • Short-term rental/utility assistance • Rapid re -housing • Rental housing rehabilitation • Homeowner housing rehabilitation and • Direct financial assistance for eligible homebuyers. An analysis of Salt Lake City's homebuyer market demonstrates a reasonable range of low-income households will continue to qualify for mortgage financing assistance: • US Census data, Salt Lake City, 2021: o The median home value was $380,200. o The median household income was $65,880. • HUD, HOME Income Guidelines for 2022, Salt Lake City Metro Area, 80% AMI for a family of 4: $81,900 • ACS data, Salt Lake City, 2022: o The percentage of households under the poverty line: 14.7% of total population o The median monthly owner costs with a mortgage, $1,739 • According to Utah RealEstate.com, the median home price in Salt Lake City in April 2023 was $570,000 with an average price of $666,718. Between July 2022 to March 2023, 35 Salt Lake City homes sold for between $100,000-$299,999. Annual Action Plan m OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) AP-60 PUBLIC HOUSING - 91.220(H) Introduction The Housing Authority of Salt Lake City (HASLC) is responsible for managing the public housing inventory, developing new affordable housing units and administering the Housing Choice voucher programs for the City. The Authority strives to provide affordable housing opportunities throughout the community by developing new or rehabilitating existing housing that is safe, decent, and affordable — a place where a person's income level or background cannot be identified by the neighborhood in which they live. The Housing Authority of Salt Lake City (HASLC) is responsible for managing the public housing inventory, developing new affordable housing units, and administering the Housing Choice voucher programs for the City. HASLC strives to provide affordable housing opportunities throughout the community by developing new or rehabilitating existing housing that is safe, decent, and affordable — a place where a person's income level or background cannot be identified by the neighborhood in which they live. As an administrator of the City's Housing Choice voucher programs, the Housing Choice Voucher Program provides rental assistance to low-income families (50% of area median income and below). This program provides rental subsidies to 2,777 low-income families, disabled, elderly, and chronically homeless clients through this and other voucher programs. 1,518 of these vouchers are located within Salt Lake City municipal boundaries. Other programs under the Housing Choice umbrella include Housing Choice Moderate Rehabilitation; Housing Choice New Construction; Project Based Vouchers; Multifamily Project Based Vouchers; Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing Vouchers; and Housing Opportunities for Persons with HIV/AIDS. Under these other Housing Choice programs, the HASLC provided rental subsidies to additional qualified program participants. Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing HASLC has goals that include an increased focus on assisting local leaders and agencies respond to homelessness in the City, as well as developing and attaining more capacity for additional living units through real estate activities, rehabilitation, pursuing new SRO projects, developing increased relationships and services targeting and attracting landlords. HASLC also utilizes HUD Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) to preserve and improve their many properties. HASLC continues to look for ways Annual Action Plan 49 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) to expand their portfolio by identifying challenging properties and continuing to develop catalytic and transformative projects and programming. Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership Both HASLC and Housing Connect, previously Salt Lake County Housing Authority, have active monthly tenant meetings and encourage participation in management decisions related to the specific housing communities. Housing Connect has a Resident Advisory Board that has representatives from public housing, Section 8, and special needs programs. A member of the Resident Advisory Board is appointed to the Housing Connect's Board of Commissioners. HASLC operates Family Self -Sufficiency programs that address areas of improving personal finances and homeownership preparation for voucher recipients. If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be provided or other assistance Housing Connect and HASLC are both designated as high performers. Discussion Public housing is a vital tool for Salt Lake City's goal of affordable housing and ending homelessness. The City will continue to work with the Housing Authorities and other partners in this area. AP-65 HOMELESS AND OTHER SPECIAL NEEDS ACTIVITIES - 91.220(1) Introduction Salt Lake City works with a large homeless services community to reduce the number of persons experiencing homelessness, reduce the length of time individuals experience homelessness, increase successful transitions out of homelessness, and reduce the number of instances that clients may return to homelessness. Salt Lake City representatives participate in the local Salt Lake County Continuum of Care's (CoC) executive board and its prioritization committee specifically, so the Continuum of Care's priorities are considered during Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) allocations. The three local ESG funders also meet regularly to coordinate ESG and CoC activities to ensure an accurate level of funding is provided to match the community's service needs and goals. Additionally, the City participates in Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness and the State Homelessness Coordinating Committee to further coordinate efforts. Annual Action Plan 50 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) The Salt Lake County CoC contracts with the State of Utah to administer the Utah Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). All service agencies in the region and the rest of the state are under a uniform data standard for HUD reporting and local ESG funders. All ESG funded organizations participate in HMIS. Representatives from Salt Lake City sit on the HMIS Steering Committee. HMIS data allows Salt Lake City and its partners to track the effectiveness of programs and gauge the continuing service needs of the community. The State of Utah, in coordination with local service providers and volunteers, conducts an annual Point - In -Time count at the end of January to count sheltered (emergency shelter and transitional housing) and unsheltered homeless individuals. Unsheltered homeless individuals are counted by canvassing volunteers. The volunteers use the VI-SPDAT assessment tool to interview and try to connect unsheltered homeless individuals into services. 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 Salt Lake City's primary homeless services goal is to help homeless individuals and families get off the street and into permanent housing. In the short term, Salt Lake City will continue to provide collaborative services to the homeless population. Personalized and persistent one-on-one outreach to homeless individuals providing information about the specific services that individual needs (e.g., housing, mental health treatment, a hot meal) is the most effective outreach approach. Salt Lake City works regularly with various community partners that provide outreach and assessment of individuals experiencing homelessness including Catholic Community Services, Volunteers of America, the Department of Veterans Affairs, The Road Home, and others. Housing Stability's Homeless Engagement and Response Team (HEART) coordinates a wide array of efforts designed to engage and meet the needs of unsheltered persons residing in Salt Lake City. These efforts include regularly scheduled resource fairs that bring service providers directly to areas where unsheltered individuals are residing. Annual Action Plan 51 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) Salt Lake City provided paper surveys to the Homeless Resource Centers as part of the engagement efforts. Housing Stability Staff also attended a homeless resource fair that was coordinated by the HEART Team. See the attached Engagement Report for additional details. Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons Most efforts to deal with homelessness in Utah rely on the Housing First model. The premise of Housing First is that once homeless individuals have housing, they are more likely to seek and continue receiving services and can search for employment. The Housing First model has been effective in Salt Lake City, though meeting the varied housing needs of this population can be challenging. The homeless housing market needs more permanent supportive housing, housing vouchers, affordable non -supportive housing, and housing located near transit and services. Salt Lake City is continuing to work to meet the needs of all persons experiencing homelessness, including with CDBG, ESG, and HOPWA funds. There is a continued need for day services to meet the basic needs of persons experiencing homelessness. Salt Lake City addresses these issues by supporting homeless resource centers, day services, and providing a free storage program. These centers also provide essential services to the homeless population, including food, storage, case management and behavioral health services. Our goal is that homelessness is rare, brief, and non -recurring. Salt Lake City will continue aiming to assist homeless persons make the transition to permanent housing, including shortening the period 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. 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 Salt Lake City and its service partners work with homeless individuals to help them successfully transition from living on the streets or shelters and into permanent housing or independent living. Salt Lake City has been working with service partners and other governmental agencies through the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness (SLVCEH). This includes work on various subgroups that focus on specific areas of service, including housing and coordinated entry. Salt Lake City has the goal to help Annual Action Plan 52 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) streamline service delivery to the homeless community with the express purpose of shortening the period that individuals and families experience homelessness. Salt Lake City has also funded the creation of new permanent supportive housing units and programs which serve the most vulnerable members of our community. Progress is being made on both goals. Through the City's Funding Our Future efforts, the City has funded a variety of housing programs that aim to fill in gaps in services in our community. These programs include a shared housing program and housing programs which target families with children, individuals with substance abuse disorders, refugees, and victims of domestic violence. Salt Lake City also received approval from HUD for its HOME ARP Allocation Plan on May 11, 2023. This plan includes over $1.5 million for the development of new affordable housing units targeted towards persons and families experiencing homelessness. 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. Salt Lake City, along with other organizations in the Salt Lake County Continuum of Care, works to prevent and divert individuals and families from experiencing homelessness. Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County and the State of Utah all provide funding to Utah Community Action for short-term rental assistance to families at risk of falling into homelessness. Utah Community Action also conducts Diversion at all the Homeless Resource Centers and the Weigand Day Center for homeless individuals, which is partially funded by Salt Lake City ESG Homelessness Prevention funds. Housing Stability has also created a new staff position that will be focused on providing tenant support and legal rights information to reduce evictions, which can often lead to homelessness and become a barrier to obtaining new housing. This position was filled in April 2023. The Salt Lake Coalition to End Homelessness, along with Salt Lake City, coordinates regularly with health care facilities, mental health facilities, and other institutions to ensure that those exiting those facilities have access to resources to help prevent homelessness. Annual Action Plan 53 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) Discussion Salt Lake City is reducing and ending homelessness in the community through strong collaborations with partner organizations throughout the Salt Lake County Continuum of Care. Salt Lake City works closely with Salt Lake County, the State of Utah and service providers to stop families from entering homelessness, reduce the length of time individuals and families experience homelessness, help individuals and families successfully transition out of homelessness, and keep individuals and families from rescinding back into homelessness. Increased housing and rental costs continue to be a challenge for these efforts, but the City and its partners are working diligently with the limited funding available to make strides towards making homelessness rare, brief, and nonrecurring. AP-70 HOPWA GOALS- 91.220 (L)(3) One-year goals for the number of households to be provided housing through the use of HOPWA for: Short-term Rent, Mortgage, and Utility Assistance Payments: 38 Tenant -Based Rental Assistance: 61 Units Provided in Permanent Housing Facilities Developed, Leased, 0 or Operated with HOPWA Funds: Units provided in Transitional Short -Term Housing Facilities 0 Developed, Leased, or Operated with HOPWA Funds: TOTAL: 99 AP-75 BARRIERS TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING - 91.220(1) Introduction: As discussed in sections MA-40 and SP-55 of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, several barriers to the development and preservation of affordable housing exist within Salt Lake City, including the following: • Land costs • Construction costs • Housing and transportation costs • Development and rehabilitation financing • Housing rehabilitation complexities • Foreclosures and loan modifications • Neighborhood market conditions Annual Action Plan 54 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) • Economic conditions • Land use regulations • Development fees and assessments • Permit processing procedures • Environmental review procedures • Lack of zoning and development incentives • Complicated impact fee waiver process • Competition for limited development incentives • Landlord tenant policies • "NIMBYism" While not all of these barriers can be addressed with federal funding, during the 2023-2024 program year, the City will work to reduce barriers to affordable housing through the following planning efforts and initiatives: • Development of a new 5-year housing plan, Housing SLC. • The creation of an anti -displacement plan, Thriving in Place. • Working to affirmatively further fair housing with the help of partner agencies such as the Disability Law Center. • Work collaboratively with service providers and the Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness, to improve and strengthen our homelessness response system. • Continue to provide affordable home ownership opportunities through federal and nonfederal funding sources. • Leverage City -owned land in the creation of new affordable housing • Coordinate with the Salt Lake Redevelopment Agency and their efforts to increase affordable housing. • More responsive zoning policies that help meet the needs of a growing City and a difficult housing market. Annual Action Plan 55 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) 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 Salt Lake City will work to remove or ameliorate public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing through the following efforts: • Affordable Housing Development Incentives: Zoning and fee waiver incentives will be implemented and/or strengthened, including the following: o Review the City's Housing Loss Mitigation ordinance to ensure that the city's stock of inexpensive housing isn't rapidly being replaced by more expensive units. o An Affordable Housing Overlay zone that allows for and provides incentives for the creation and preservation of affordable housing. o A Single Room Occupancy (SRO)/Shared Housing ordinance that allows for SROs in neighborhoods throughout the City. o Off -Street Parking Ordinance update to improve pedestrian -scale development and amenities. o Low -Density Multi -Family Residential Zoning amendments to remove local zoning barriers to housing density and types of housing. o ADU ordinance to allow for the creation of additional units in single family neighborhoods. • Leverage Public Resources for Affordable Housing Development: Public resources, including city - owned land, will be leveraged with private resources for affordable housing development. • Funding Targeting: The Housing Stability Division is evaluating ways to coordinate and target affordable housing subsidies more effectively, to include the coordination of local funding sources (Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund, Salt Lake City Housing Development Loan Fund, Salt Lake County funding, etc.). • Implement Fair Housing Action Items: Salt Lake City will work to remove and/or ameliorate housing impediments for protected classes through action items as identified in the City's Fair Housing Action Plan as outlined in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan.

Discussion: Housing Stability, other city divisions, and policy makers will continue to work towards removing or ameliorating the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing. AP-85 OTHER ACTIONS - 91.220(K) Introduction: This section outlines Salt Lake City's efforts to carry out the following: • Address obstacles to meeting underserved needs • Foster and maintain affordable housing • Reduce lead -based paint hazards • Reduce the number of poverty -level families • Develop institutional structure • Enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies • Radon Mitigation Policy Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The most substantial impediment in meeting underserved needs is a lack of funding and resources. Strategic shifts identified through Salt Lake City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan provide a framework for maximizing and leveraging the City's block grant allocations on underserved needs. Underserved needs and strategic actions are as follows: Underserved Need: Affordable housing • Actions: Salt Lake City is utilizing federal and local resources to expand both rental and homeownership opportunities. In addition, the City is utilizing public land to leverage private capital for the development of affordable housing. These efforts will work to address the affordable housing gap in Salt Lake City. Annual Action Plan 57 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) Underserved Need: Homelessness • Actions: Salt Lake City is working with housing and homeless service providers to coordinate and streamline processes for service delivery. The State of Utah and Utah Homeless Management Information System are working to create a screening survey for prioritization of vulnerable and homeless individuals. These efforts will assist in addressing unmet needs by utilizing resources more effectively. Underserved Need: Special needs individuals. • Actions: Salt Lake City is working to address underserved needs for refugees, immigrants, the elderly, victims of domestic violence, persons living with HIV/AIDS, and persons with a disability by providing resources for basic needs, as well as resources to expand self-sufficiency. For example, federal funding is utilized to provide early childhood education for refugees and other at -risk children; create accessibility improvements for elderly or disabled residents; improve immediate and long-term outcomes for persons living with HIV/AIDS; provide job training for vulnerable populations; and provide medical services for at risk populations. Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City is committed to fostering and maintaining affordable housing throughout our City. This is evident through identifying specific gaps that exist in the community, and then designing affordable housing efforts specifically to address these needs. The City aims to target households earning 80% AMI and below, with emphasis on households earning 40% AMI and below. Through the housing initiatives and efforts identified in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, Salt Lake City aims to: • Address the City's affordable housing shortage for those most in need. • Address housing needs for Salt Lake City's changing demographics. • Address neighborhood specific needs, including the following: o Protect affordability in neighborhoods where affordability is disappearing. o Promote affordability in neighborhoods with a lack of affordable housing. • Preserve the City's existing affordable housing stock. • Strengthen the City's relationship with our housing partners, financial institutions, and foundations. Annual Action Plan m OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) • Support those who develop and advocate for affordable housing. Toward this end, Salt Lake City will foster and maintain affordable housing during the 2023-2024 program year through the following actions: • Utilize CDBG funding to support owner -occupied rehabilitation for households at 80% AMI and below. • Utilize CDBG and HOME funding for acquisition and rehabilitation of dilapidated and blighted housing. • Utilize ESG, HOME, and HOPWA funding to create housing opportunities for individuals and households at 30% AMI and below through Tenant -Based Rental Assistance and Rapid Re - Housing. • Utilize CDBG and HOME funding for direct financial assistance to homebuyers at 80% AMI and below. • Promote the development of affordable housing with low-income housing tax credits, Salt Lake City Housing Development Loan Fund, Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund, Salt Lake City's HOME Development Fund and other funding sources. • Leverage public resources, including publicly owned land, with private capital for the development of affordable housing. • Work to ameliorate and/or eliminate housing impediments for protected classes as outlined in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan's Fair Housing Action Plan. • Work to leverage other city resources such as Redevelopment Agency funding/strategies, maximize sales tax housing funding, and other sources as they are identified with federal funding where applicable. • Salt Lake City launched a Community Land Trust that currently has sixteen properties, with plans to increase the number of properties in the next program year. Actions planned to reduce lead -based paint hazards Because of the high percentage of the housing units in Salt Lake City that were built before 1978, outreach and education efforts must continue. As such, the City has implemented a plan to address lead issues in our residential rehabilitation projects. The City's Housing Rehabilitation Program is in - Annual Action Plan 59 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) compliance with HUD's rules concerning identification and treatment of lead hazards. During the 2023- 2024 program year, the City will work in conjunction with our partners on the state and county levels to educate the public on the dangers posed by lead based paint, to include the following: • Undertake outreach efforts through direct mailings, the City website, various fairs and public events, and the local community councils. • Provide materials in Spanish to increase lead -based paint hazard awareness in minority communities. • Partner with Salt Lake County's Lead Safe Salt Lake program to treat lead hazards in the homes of children identified as having elevated blood levels. • Emphasize lead hazards in our initial contacts with homeowners needing rehabilitation. • Work with community partners to encourage local contractors to obtain worker certifications for their employees and sub -contractors. Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty -level families In a strategic effort to reduce the number of households living in poverty and prevent households at risk of moving towards poverty from doing so, the City is focusing on a two -pronged approach: 1. Creating neighborhoods of opportunity to build capacity and expand resources within concentrated areas of poverty. 2. Support the city's most vulnerable populations, including the chronically homeless, homeless families, food -insecure individuals, the disabled, persons living with HIV/AIDS, victims of domestic violence and the low-income elderly. The City's anti -poverty strategy aims to close the gap in several socioeconomic indicators, such as improving housing affordability, school -readiness of young children, employment skills of at -risk adults, access to transportation for low-income households, and access to fresh foods for food -insecure families. Efforts will focus on the following objectives: • Assist low-income individuals to maximize their incomes. • Reduce the linkages between poor health and poverty. • Expand housing opportunities. Annual Action Plan .c OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) • Reduce the impacts of poverty on children. • Ensure that vulnerable populations have access to supportive services. Federal entitlement funds allocated through this 2023-2024 Action Plan will support the City's anti- poverty strategy through the following efforts: • Provide job training for vulnerable populations. • Provide early childhood education to limit the effects of intergenerational poverty. • Provide essential supportive services for vulnerable populations. • Provide housing rehabilitation for low-income homeowners. • Expanded affordable housing opportunities. • Improved neighborhood and commercial infrastructure in West Side Target Area. • Enhance support for small businesses and micro -enterprise businesses. • Reduce food insecurities for low-income households. Actions planned to develop institutional structure As outlined in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, Salt Lake City is building upon the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan and continuing to take a coordinated and strategic shift in allocating federal entitlement funds to place a stronger emphasis on community needs, goals, objectives, and outcomes. This includes the following efforts to strengthen and develop institutional structure: • Geographically target infrastructure and economic development funding to areas of the city with higher poverty rates, lower incomes, and/or reduced access to transportation. • Increase coordination between housing and supportive service providers to reduce/eliminate duplicative efforts, encourage partnerships, increase transparency, and standardize processes. • Strengthen support for the City's most vulnerable populations, including the chronically homeless, homeless families, individuals with disabilities, persons living with HIV/AIDS, victims of domestic violence and the low-income elderly. • Support housing efforts that connect residents with supportive services and programs that improve self-sufficiency. Annual Action Plan 61 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) • Offer technical assistance to agencies implementing projects with CDBG, ESG, HOME, and/or HOPWA funding to ensure compliance and support of program objectives. • Support employee training and certifications to expand the internal knowledge base on HUD programs, as well as housing and community development best practices. Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies Salt Lake City recognizes the importance of coordination between supportive service and housing providers in meeting priority needs. Stakeholders have been working towards developing and implementing a streamlined and effective delivery system to include the following efforts: • Created and implemented a no wrong door approach to accessing housing and other services. • Increased coordination through the Salt Lake County's Continuum of Care, Salt Lake Valley Coalition to End Homelessness, the Utah Homeless Management Information System, and State Homeless Coordinating Council. • Coordinated assessments to help individuals and families experiencing homeless move through the system faster. • Coordinated diversion and homeless prevention resources to reduce new entries into homelessness. • Coordinated efforts to house the highest users of the homeless services and provide trauma informed case management. • Improved weekly "housing triage" meetings that provide a format for developing a housing plan for homeless individuals and families with the most urgent housing needs. Discussion: Salt Lake City will continue to work on the above and other efforts to improve the health, safety, stability, prosperity, and opportunities for its residents. AP-90 PROGRAM SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS- 91.220(L)(1,2,4) Introduction: Salt Lake City's program specific requirements for CDBG, ESG, HOME and HOPWA are outlined as follows. Annual Action Plan 62 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) 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 $0 the start of the next program year and that has not yet been reprogrammed 2. The amount of proceeds from section 108 loan guarantees that will be $0 used during the year to address the priority needs and specific objectives identified in the grantee's strategic plan 3. The amount of surplus funds from urban renewal settlements $0 4. The amount of any grant funds returned to the line of credit for which the $0 planned use has not been included in a prior statement or plan. 5. The amount of income from float -funded activities $0 Total Program Income $0 Other CDBG Requirements 1. The amount of urgent need activities $0 2. The estimated percentage of CDBG funds that will be used for activities 90% that benefit persons of low and moderate income HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) Reference 24 CFR 91.220(1)(2) A description of other forms of investment being used beyond those identified in Section 92.205 is as follows: Salt Lake City does not utilize HOME funding beyond those identified in Section 92.205. Subrecipients for HOME funded projects are selected in the same manner as the other CPD grants. Competitive applications are given an administrative score and scored by a resident advisory board. The board makes funding recommendations that are sent to the mayor, and then the Council, who finalize the award decisions. During this process there are two public hearings that are conducted, one in the fall and another in the spring at a public City Council meeting. Additional public feedback is also gathered throughout the year through surveys and at public events. This process is outlined in further detail in Appendix C Citizen Participation Plan in the City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and AP-12 Participation of this Action Plan. Annual Action Plan 63 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) 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: When Salt Lake City awards HOME funds for homebuyer activities, the following will apply if a sale or transfer of the property is made during the period of affordability: 1) Recapture provisions will apply when a homebuyer or subrecipient receives direct HOME assistance to purchase the affordable home (i.e., for a downpayment, closing costs, or other HOME assistance). 2) Resale provisions will apply when HOME assistance is provided for development subsidies, acquisition of existing units by housing organizations, and homes placed in community land trusts. Definitions DEVELOPMENT SUBSIDY: A development subsidy is generally financial assistance given to the developer, who can then offer the home at a lower sales price and reduce the homebuyer's housing costs. While the subsidy does not go directly to the homebuyer, it helps make development of an affordable home feasible. DIRECT HOMEBUYER SUBSIDY: A direct subsidy consists of any financial assistance that reduces the purchase price from fair market value to an affordable price, or otherwise directly subsidizes the purchase (i.e., downpayment or closing cost assistance, subordinate financing). HOMEBUYER INVESTMENT: The homebuyer's investment consists of the portion of initial downpayment paid by the homebuyer combined with the value of any capital improvements made with the homebuyer's funds, and any loan principal paid down during the homebuyer's period of ownership. NET PROCEEDS: The sales price minus loan repayment (other than HOME funds) and closing costs. Under no circumstances can the City recapture more than is available from the net proceeds of the sale (i.e., voluntary sales including short sales, and involuntary sales including foreclosures). NONCOMPLIANCE: Failure to comply with the resale or recapture requirements means that: The HOME -assisted homebuyer no longer occupies the unit as their principal residence (i.e., unit is rented or vacant); or the home is voluntarily or involuntarily transferred in a transaction changing ownership without proper notice and the appropriate provisions were not enforced. Annual Action Plan 64 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) PERIOD OF AFFORDABILITY: The number of years that resale and recapture policies will be in effect when HOME funds are used. The minimum number of years is determined by the amount of the investment. HOME Funds Provided for Homebuyer Activity Minimum years subject to Recapture of HOME Funds of Affordability Under $15,000 5 Years Between $15,000 and $40,000 1 10 Years Over $40,000 15 Years SUBRECIPIENT: A subrecipient is a public or private nonprofit agency, authority, or organization that receives HOME funds to undertake eligible HOME activities (e.g., provide downpayment or closing costs assistance, or homeowner rehabilitation). RECAPTURE PROVISIONS Used when HOME assistance is provided to a homebuyer purchasing a regular market home. Homebuyers/subrecipients who are awarded HOME funds for direct homebuyer assistance (downpayment assistance, closing costs, interest subsidies, or other HOME assistance) must follow the recapture guidelines if the property is sold or transferred during the affordability period. Depending on the level of homebuyer assistance provided, the affordability period may be five years (less than $15,000 in direct assistance), ten years ($15,000 or more but less than $40,000), or fifteen years ($40,000 or more). When the home is sold or transferred during the period of affordability, the homebuyer/subrecipient must repay the City the full amount of HOME funds received through downpayment assistance, closing costs, or other HOME assistance provided directly to them, and any financial assistance that reduced the purchase price from fair market value to an affordable price. Example The City provides $75,000 in HOME development funds to a developer who sells the property for fair market value at $60,000. The homebuyer is also provided HOME down payment Annual Action Plan 65 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) assistance in the amount of $5,000. The City uses the recapture option to ensure affordability. The period of affordability for this property is five years because the property was sold for fair market value and the direct assistance to the homebuyer is therefore $5,000. Alternately, if the fair market value of this some property was $75,000, and the developer sold the property to the homebuyer for $60,000, the period of affordability would be ten years because the assistance that enables the homebuyer to purchase the unit is $20,000 ($15,000 subsidy to write down the purchase price plus the $5,000 down payment assistance). The HOME -assisted homebuyer is allowed to sell the home to any willing buyer at any price as long as the HOME debt remaining on the property is repaid. If the net sales proceeds are inadequate to fully repay the City's HOME loan, the City accepts the net proceeds as full and final payoff of the note. The City is never permitted to recapture more than is available from net proceeds of the sale (i.e., voluntary sales including short sales, and involuntary sales including foreclosures). The net proceeds of a sale are the sales price minus non -HOME loan repayments and any closing costs. When the net sales proceeds exceed the City assistance, the HOME -assisted homebuyer retains all remaining net proceeds after repaying the HOME loan balance. The City reserves the right to determine that the sales price reflects fair market value. If the City receives payment, the CitVvill record the funds as "recaptured funds" and will use the funds for other HOME -eligible activities. Or the City may agree to a written agreement that specifies that the subrecipient keeps the recaptured funds for use for other HOME -eligible activities. Anytime recaptured funds are reused to assist a subsequent homebuyer, a new period of affordability will sta rt. Lien documents, deed restrictions, covenants that run with the land, or other similar mechanisms will be used to impose recapture provisions. Documents containing these provisions will be executed at the closing of the home purchase and will be recorded at that time. In addition, the City will execute a written agreement between the homebuyer and the City, which will clearly explain: • amount and use of the loan; • length of the affordability period based on the dollar amount of City funds invested; • requirement that the property be the primary residence of the household throughout the period of affordability; • recapture provisions based on net proceeds available from sale, transfer or foreclosure of the home. Annual Action Plan OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) HOME investment x Net proceeds = HOME amount to be recaptured HOME investment+homeowner investment homeowner investment x Net proceeds = amount t❑ homeowner HOME investment+homeowner investment Only those grantee users with administrative privileges can edit grantee program contact information. Users with these privileges will see an additional "Admin" module in the blue, top bar. Each organization is required to list a first contract, and is encouraged to list a second contact if possible, for each of the CPD programs where the organization is the direct recipient of HUD funding. To edit program contact information, the Local Grantee Administrator should: 1. Click the Grantee/PJ tab to display the View Grantee screen. On the navigation bar (left-hand side of the screen), click on the "Edit Contacts" link. 2. The "Chief Elected Official" section and each program area has a set of links including "Update," New," and "Change to Another." Select "Update" to edit the information for the existing program contact and select "New" to add a new program contact. The "Change to Another" link can be used to search for and select a different contact as the new program contact. In order to preserve the number of affordable housing units for continued benefit to low-income residents, Salt Lake City requires that HOME funds used to assist homeownership be recaptured whenever assisted units become vacant prior to the end of the affordability period that is commensurate with the amount of funding invested in the activity. Trust deeds or property restrictions are filed on appropriate properties to ensure compliance with the period of affordability. Homeownership Resale: When HOME funding is provided directly to a developer to reduce development costs, thereby making the price of the home affordable to the homebuyer, the funds are not repaid by the developer to the City but remain with the property for the length of the affordability period. This keeps HOME -assisted units affordable over the entire affordability period. Under the resale option, if the homeowner decides to sell the home during the period of affordability: Annual Action Plan 67 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) • The sale price must be affordable to a range of subsequent low-income owner -occupied households. • Subsequent homebuyers must be income -qualified under the HOME program and must occupy the home as their principal residence. • The homeowner must be provided a fair return on investment when applicable (i.e., the downpayment plus capital improvements made to the house), while ensuring that the home is sold to another income qualified household. o In some cases, it may be necessary for the City to provide HOME assistance to the subsequent homeowner to ensure that the original homeowner receives a fair return and the unit is affordable to the defined low-income population. The resale price cannot be set based upon what is affordable to a specific homebuyer. FAIR RETURN ON INVESTMENT. The homeowner may receive the money they invested into the property back from the sale proceeds. The value of the homeowner investment is calculated by adding: • The homeowner's investment (i.e. downpayment and/or closing costs) at the time of initial purchase, • The principal paid on the senior debt during the period of ownership, and • Capital improvements (any individual improvements made specifically to the structure or major system of the HOME assisted housing unit in which the cost was more than $3,000.00 and where applicable, the work was properly permitted, inspected locally, and documented with third party receipts). The homeowner's fair return on investment is measured using: • A formula that allows 1.5% annum simple interest for the number of years of ownership -OR- (whichever is the lessor of the two calculations) • The Consumer Price index, calculated from the month and year of purchase of the home to the month and year of the Intent -to -Sell Notice or other event triggering the Resale Option. The calculation shall be derived from the Bureau of Labor statistics online calculator or any successor: https://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/cpicalc.pl Annual Action Plan m OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) The total return at sale, assuming the price at sale permits the homeowner to realize a full return on the investment, would be the lesser of the two calculations. Note: that in certain circumstances, such as a declining housing market where home values are depreciating, the homeowner may not receive a return on their investment because the home sold for less or the same price as the original purchase price. RESALE PROCESS: When a Resale is triggered during the Period of Affordability, the HOME -assisted homeowner must notify the City in writing no less than 60 days prior to such sell or transfer -to- . In order to ensure that all resale requirements are met, the City will • agree to the new sale price with consultation from the contracted agency and written third party appraisal. • confirm the Fair Return calculation to the HOME -assisted homeowner, and equity amounts to the homeowner, developer and the City. • review the income eligibility of the subsequent homebuyer. o Subsequent homebuyer must be low-income as defined by HOME o Sales price must be affordable to the subsequent homebuyer; affordable is defined as limiting the Principal, Interest, Taxes and Insurance (PITI) amount to no more than 30% of the subsequent homebuyer's gross monthly income. • ensure the subsequent homebuyer will use the property as their principal residence. • determine whether the subsequent homebuyer will continue the Period of Affordability in effect. HOME PROGRAM QUALIFIED. Once the City determines that all resale process requirements are met, a written agreement will be executed between the subsequent homebuyer and the City, which will clearly explain: • amount and use of the loan; • length of the affordability period based on the dollar amount of City funds invested; • requirement that the property be the primary residence of the household throughout the period of affordability; Annual Action Plan OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) • conditions and obligations of the subsequent homebuyer should they wish to sell before the end of the affordability period. 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: See the below table for the affordability period for HOME funding projects. Rental Housing Activity Minimum years of Affordability Rehab or acquisition of existing housing per 5 Years unit amount of HOME funds under $15,000 Between $15,000 and $40,000 10 Years Over $40,000 or rehab involving refinancing 15 Years New construction or acquisition of newly 20 Years constructed housing CONTINUED AFFORDABILITY. To provide continued affordability of the property, the City will ensure that the sales price not exceed what is affordable to households below 80% of area median income (AMI). The City defines "affordable price" as a price that is at or below an amount that will allow a low- income family to pay no more than 30% of their monthly income to pay for mortgage principal and interest, property taxes, and insurance. In no case will the price exceed the HOME Program purchase price limits as defined by HUD. ENFORCEMENT OF RESALE PROVISIONS. The HOME -assisted homeowner will be responsible for notifying the City to ensure that resale provisions are followed if properties are sold or transferred during the period of affordability. To accomplish this, lien documents, deed restrictions, covenants running with the land, or other similar mechanisms will be used to guarantee the period of affordability. Documents containing these provisions will be executed at the closing of the home purchase and will be recorded at that time. REPAYMENT Annual Action Plan 70 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) If homebuyer violates compliance requirements during the period of affordability, the City may enforce a Repayment provision in which homebuyer is responsible for repaying to the City the entire HOME investment. The HOME Resale and Recapture policies are intended to implement the HUD HOME program requirements concerning resale, recapture and repayment. In the event there is ambiguity in this policy, or in the event this policy does not address a specific question, the City will look to HUD regulations, guidance documents, and program notices as persuasive authority on such questions. 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: Not applicable. Salt Lake City does not intend to use HOME funds to refinance multifamily housing debt. Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Reference 91.220(1)(4) Include written standards for providing ESG assistance (may include as attachment) The Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Policies include written standards for providing ESG assistance. Salt Lake City's updated ESG policies and procedures are attached to this Annual Action Plan. If the Continuum of Care has established centralized or coordinated assessment system that meets HUD requirements, describe that centralized or coordinated assessment system. The Salt Lake Continuum of Care has developed a collaborative, written coordinated assessment plan. Consensus exists for a coordinated assessment plan that covers the entire Continuum of Care with a multi-access entry point quick assessment method for any homeless individual or family in need of emergency shelter or service. Our 2-1-1 system, service providers, government agencies, and others publicize all existing access points, as well as a central phone number that assists those who express a housing related emergency. The phone number is staffed by Utah Community Action and guides the caller to the one or many resources can serve the caller, The CoC is striving to do everything we can to ensure individuals and families in need have clear direction for accessing appropriate services. After entry into an emergency service, individuals are tracked as they progress toward housing and/or support interventions. All homeless families and those individuals prioritized for permanent supportive Annual Action Plan 71 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) housing placements are guided toward this centralized process and placed into one of several housing programs depending on assessment. Standardized assessments include a quick assessment for emergency services and eligibility and enrollment materials for housing placements. Representatives of the City worked with the CoC, ESG funders, and service providers to improve the coordinated assessment system to meet requirements set forth in Notice CPD-17-01. Identify the process for making sub -awards and describe how the ESG allocation available to private nonprofit organizations (including community and faith -based organizations). Granting sub -awards is an intensive, months -long process. It begins with applications being made available and workshops held to explain different federal grant programs and eligible activities under each. SLC staff also reach out to potential applicants through the Salt Lake Homeless Coordinating Council, the local Continuum of Care, the Utah Housing Coalition, and others. After the application period closes, a general needs hearing is conducted to help guide how ESG monies should be spent. Applications are discussed with a resident advisory board in a public forum. Applicants are invited to meet with the resident advisory board to answer final questions or provide additional information regarding their programs and their role in the larger homeless services system structure. The Community Development & Capital Improvement Programs Advisory Board (CDCIP Board) reviews the ESG applications and makes a recommendation to the Salt Lake City Mayor based on federal guidelines, the 5 Year Consolidated Plan, and the City's long-term homeless services strategies. The Mayor then makes a recommendation on funding to the City Council based on the CDCIP board recommendation, federal guidelines, the 5 Year Consolidated Plan, and the City's long-term homeless services strategies. The City Council holds a public hearing to receive comments on the program applications and recommendations. The City Council then makes a funding decision based on public comments, the Mayor's recommendations, CDCIP Board recommendations, federal guidelines, the 5-Year Consolidated Plan, and the City's long-term homeless services strategies. If the jurisdiction is unable to meet the homeless participation requirement in 24 CFR Annual Action Plan 72 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) 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. Before the Salt Lake City Council makes the final funding decisions for ESG funds, there are multiple venues for public outreach including two public hearings. Efforts are made to include participation from homeless and formerly homeless individuals. Emergency Solutions Grant funds, along with other public and private monies, are used by Salt Lake City to implement our short- and long-term homeless service goals. Individuals experiencing homelessness often help the city craft and implement short-term and long- term service plans. Specific outreach for the development of the Annual Action Plan is done at homeless resource centers and at resource fairs, which are targeted towards those experiencing unsheltered homelessness. ESG subrecipients and other homeless service providers routinely consult with current and formerly homeless individuals to make programming and service delivery decisions. Describe performance standards for evaluating ESG. Salt Lake City scores programs receiving Emergency Solutions Grant funding using the performance metrics required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and local priorities. To increase transparency, leverage resources, and maximize efficiencies, Salt Lake City does the following: • All applications undergo a risk analysis prior to the awarding of funds. • Standardized quarterly reporting is reviewed for compliance, timeliness, and accuracy. • Monitoring and technical assistance risk analyses are performed on all subgrantees to determine which organization would benefit from monitoring or technical assistance visits. • Collect information that supports the required performance measurement metrics and provides context on local initiatives. Annual Action Plan 73 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) To ensure consistent performance metrics, the Salt Lake County Continuum of Care contracts with the State of Utah to administer Utah's Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). All service agencies in the region and the rest of the state are under a uniform data standard for HUD reporting and local ESG funders. All ESG funded organizations participate in HMIS. Salt Lake City reviews HMIS data to ensure grantees are properly using funds as promised in their contracts and meeting larger City, Continuum of Care, and State goals. Housing Opportunities for Persons with HIV/AIDS (HOPWA) Identify the method of selecting project sponsors and describe the one-year goals for HOPWA funded projects: Project Sponsors for HOPWA projects are selected in the same manner as the other CPD grants. Competitive applications are given an administrative score and scored by a resident advisory board. The board makes funding recommendations that are sent to the mayor, and then the Council, who finalize the award decisions. During this process there are two public hearings that are conducted, one in the fall and another in the spring at a public City Council meeting. Additional public feedback is also gathered throughout the year through surveys and at public events. This process is outlined in further detail in Appendix C Citizen Participation Plan in the City's 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and AP-12 Participation of this Action Plan. Our one-year goals are outlined in AP-20 and AP-35 and include providing supportive services to 156 households, STRMU and PHP to 38 households, and TBRA services to 61 households. These services will help to support our Consolidated Plan goals for Housing and Behavioral Health services. Discussion: Salt Lake City appreciates its partnership with HUD and the services that are made possible by the funding provided through the annual entitlement programs.

In addition to being an Entitlement City, the Housing Stability Division ("Division") receives CDBG and HOME funds, through the annual allocation process, for City -administered direct -delivery programs to preserve and expand affordable housing opportunities. On an annual basis, the Division deploys millions of dollars to address the critical needs of residents and neighborhoods. Some of these projects and program generate revenue, known as Program Income (PI). PI is gross income received by the recipient or a subrecipient directly generated from the use of CDBG or HOME funds. This may include, but is not limited to, proceeds from the disposition or sale of real property purchased or improved with CDBG or HOME funds; income from the use or rental of real property acquired, constructed, or improved with CDBG or HOME funds; and payments of principal and interest on loans made using CDBG or HOME funds. The Division's two largest programs in scope and scale are the Home Repair and Homebuyer programs (the "Housing Programs"). The Housing Programs have generated PI from the disposition of property and payments of principal and interest on loans made with CDBG and HOME funds. Approximately $1 to $1.5 million in PI generated from the Housing Programs has historically been included in the Division's annual budget and has been used for operating capital for the programs. However, more PI has been generated than was being budgeted annually, leaving a surplus in unused and allocated PI (the "Dormant PI"). Program Income generated as a result of activities originally funded through CDBG and HOME programs retain their federal identity in perpetuity and are subject to all federal requirements. On February 7, 2023, the Department of Community and Neighborhoods ("CAN") and the Division briefed the City Council on Program Income funds that have been received and retained by the City, and the availability of these funds for housing and community development activities. On June 1, 2023, CAN and the Division also submitted an informational transmittal, outlining the updated PI amounts, providing funding recommendations to consider during the FY24 budget process, and outlining the HUD Consolidated Plan framework that would be required. On August 15, 2023, CAN and the Division held a briefing with City Council to review the transmittal and proposed funding allocations for consideration. The following proposals and corresponding amendments are the result of those transmittals and briefings.

APPENDICES: • Substantial Amendments to SP-35 Anticipated Resources, SP-45 Goals, AP-15 Expected Resources, and AP-35 Projects EXHIBIT 5 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan - SP-35 and SP-45 SP-35 ANTICIPATED RESOURCES 91.215(a)(4),91.22o(c)(1,2) INTRODUCTION Salt Lake City's funding year 2020-2024 CD13G, HOME, ESG, and HOPWA allocations are estimated to be a total of $25,000,000 estimating an average of $5,000,000 per year. In addition, Salt Lake City anticipates having program income of V-.5-$23.5 million during the same time period, with an estimated average of $1.5 million of program income earned and available to spend each year, and one-time unallocated program income in the amount of $16,073,220.90. HUD allocations will be utilized to address the growing housing and community development needs within Salt Lake City. However, funding has declined over the past decade, making it more difficult to address needs and overcome barriers. Over the course of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, Salt Lake City will coordinate and leverage HUD allocations to assist the City's most vulnerable populations, increase self-sufficiency and address needs in the geographic target area.
