• Consolidated Five Year Plan (2005-2010) I
Mr. Battle asked how is the data collected relative to the homeless population in I
the City and is there a specific staff person that handles the needs of the
homeless.
Staff replied that homeless data was obtained from the Los Angeles County
Office of Housing and Urban Development and the 2000 Census reports.
i

�
The City of Lynwood does not cu��ently tiave a homeless shelter, however
persons in need of homeless assistance are referred to agencies such as the
Salvation Army, Homeless Info Line of L.A., etc.
Mr. Battle asked what steps does the City take to keep residents from becoming
homeless? Staff replied that referrals are made to other organizations that may
be able to help the residents. Various lending institutions may have assistance
programs for property owners. Fannie Mae also has a program that will stop
default on property for those who qualify.
• Consolidated Annual Action Plan (FY 2005-06)
Staff explained that the Annual Action Plan contains the recommendations for
funding that the Commission discussed at the previous meetings. Those
recommendations will be submitted to Council on the May 3 Agenda for approval.
Ms. Ortiz asked if the City is proposing to build Senior Housing. Staff replied that
a request has not been made to utilize CDBG funds for a Senior Housing project.
However, Redevelopment may have a project currently being proposed.
Ms. Castro stated that there is currently a senior housing project on Atlantic. She
stated that the City has foreclosed on the property twice and for some reason,
the Redevelopment Agency is considering returning the property to CELAC for
development in addition to providing an additional 120,000 for completion of the
project.
Ms. Castro stated that there was another Development Company that offered to I
complete the project with no additional funds to be paid out by the City. She
stated that she doesn't know the outcome, but this may be something that the I
residents should check in to.
�
• Analysis of Impediments — Fair Housing Report
Ms. Castro asked, "Why is the report referred to as an Analysis of Impediments?"
Staff replied that the report is required by HUD. The City must identify steps to
be taken in order to protect the rights of citizens relative to fair housing. The City
has to make sure that housing is being provided to citizens fairly regardless of
income level, race, religious background, sexual orientation, age etc.
Ms. Castro recommended that housing staff contact mortgage companies to give
workshops to Lynwood residents. Most companies will be happy to provide
information to perspective buyers on credit, available programs etc. This would
educate citizens on purchasing a home, how to clean up their credit or how much
of a down payment is necessary etc. Ms. Castro also stated that she has
I
2
requested housing workshops fo� 3 years arid nothing has become of her
suggestions. Staff replied that those suggestions will be forwarded to Housing
staff.
Ms. Ortiz asked if the City provides any information to apartment owners on Fair
Housing practices. Staff replied that the City contract those services through the
Fair Housing Foundation (FHF). FHF provides workshops to both renters and
the apartment owners throughout the years at various locations.
Announcements are usually made in the City's adjudicated newspapers and
flyers are distributed throughout the City.
Ms. Ortiz asked if the City participates in the Section 8 program. Staff replied
yes, but our program is administered through the City of Commerce, LA County
Housing Authority.

• Lead Paint Hazard Reduction Strategy
• Community Development Needs I
• Housing and Community Development Strategic Plan
• Anti-Poverty StrategyNision for the future

The `Consolidated Plan also . matches resources from the Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME} •
grant, with programs and activities that may be implemented to address the
needs of under-served residents. HUD also requires that the City implement an
Annual Plan that reflects the goals and objectives identified within the 5-Year
Strategic Plan and lists projects, programs and resources, which will assist in the
implementation of the 5-Year Strategic Plan.
The City encourages and allows citizen participation during the preparation of its
Consolidated Plans. Several hearings were held, hosted by the Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) Advisory Board Commission, in order to

includes input from the community. On April 6, 2005, a public hearing was held
to review and provide input on the City's Consolidated Plans. No negative input
or comments were received.
During fiscal year 2005-2006, the City of Lynwood expects to have $2,049,754 in .
CDBG funds and $668,108 in HOME funds, to carry out goals set in the 5-year
strategic plan. The CDBG Commission reviewed proposals and allowed non-
profit organizations to give presentations for services. The CDBG Commission I
evaluated the proposals for consistency with the 5-year Strategic Plan, and �i,
determined which activities would be most beneficial to Lynwood residents.

2006 funding, as listed in column A below.
The City Manager, given the opportunity to conduct an analysis of the 5-year
' Consolidated Plan, 1-year Annual Plan, recommendations made by the CDBG
