The 2021 CDBG formula grant was $147,220. The 2021 Annual Action Plan allocated the funds to the following projects:  $12,446 for City CDBG planning and administrative activities  $134,774 for Hamilton Street – Street Improvement Project: The streets include Hamilton Street between 9th St NE and Standerfer Street and a small section of Stanerfer Street between French Avenue and Hamilton Street. This 0.13‐mile street improvement project includes installation of a new 5’ sidewalk on the east side of Hamilton; new curb and gutter; upgrades to sanitary sewer and water utility systems; and installation of a stormwater drainage system. On‐street parking will be preserved on the east side of Hamilton Street. The project also includes a small section of sidewalk on the north side of Standerfer Street and upgrades to underground utilities in the intersection of Standerfer and Hamilton. Progress: City CDBG planning and administrative activities. Only a portion of the funds allocated to administrative activities for 2021 were expended. Total administrative expenditures for 2021 were $1,894.60. That left $10,551.40 of remaining funds that can be used for projects during the 2022 program year. Hamilton Street – Street Improvement Project. The engineering and design for the project was completed during the 2021 program year. Additionally, 60% of the construction of the project was completed by the end of the 2021 program year. The project has been funded using three consecutive years of CDBG allocations in accordance with Title 24: 570.200(h) – the proceed for reimbursement for pre‐award costs. Program year funds from 2020, 2021, and 2022 were allocated to the project. To date $168,734.14 of CDBG funding has been spent on the project. During the 2021 Program year $107,474.31 of 2020 funds was spent on Design Engineering and of the 2021 funds, $16,586.53 was spent on Design Engineering and $16,458.19 was spent on Design Services during Construction. The Hamilton Street – Street Imprvement Project is under construction as of the end of the 2021 Program Year and anticipated to be completed by November 30, 2022. The remaining 2021 CDBG funds will be expended with this project. The following table is a breakdown of the revenue and estimated costs for the project. CDBG funds made up 32.6% of the funding necessary to CAPER 2 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) complete the project.

The primary basis for allocation of CDBG resources is to serve the needs of low and moderately low income households, business, and individuals. Consolidated Plan strategies developed through the community planning process reflect that a dignificant amount of funds are targeted to projects that benefit the low to moderately low income households. The funds that have been expended have benefitted low to moderate households or businesses.

CAPER 7 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) Leveraging Explain how federal funds leveraged additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements were satisfied, as well as how any publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that were used to address the needs identified in the plan. The City often uses CDBG funds to leverage other federal, state, local and private resources to meet housing and community development needs. While matching funds are not currently required for the City’s CDBG program, the City anticipates that most major projects will be funded primarily through non‐CDBG resources. The Hamilton Avenue project will leverage other local funds include from the East Wenatchee Water District, Douglas County Sewer District and Douglas County Sales and Use Tax funds. We typically partner with agencies that have underground utilities or services when we are working on a street construction project. CAPER 8 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) CR‐20 ‐ Affordable Housing 91.520(b) Evaluation of the jurisdiction's progress in providing affordable housing, including the number and types of families served, the number of extremely low‐income, low‐income, moderate‐income, and middle‐income persons served. One‐Year Goal Actual Number of Homeless households to be provided affordable housing units 0 0 Number of Non‐Homeless households to be provided affordable housing units 0 0 Number of Special‐Needs households to be provided affordable housing units 0 0 Total 0 0 Table 5 – Number of Households One‐Year Goal Actual Number of households supported through Rental Assistance 0 0 Number of households supported through The Production of New Units 0 0 Number of households supported through Rehab of Existing Units 0 0 Number of households supported through Acquisition of Existing Units 0 0 Total 0 0 Table 6 – Number of Households Supported Discuss the difference between goals and outcomes and problems encountered in meeting these goals. The overall goal of the community planning and development programs available from the City with CDBG funding is to assist low and moderate income households in obtaining affordable housing. No 2020 Program Year funds were allocated to housing projects. The City still has $18,469 from Program Year 2018 and $58,695 from Program Year 2019 allocated to the Columbia Valley Housing Association homeowner downpayment assistance program – a total of $77,164. The homeowner downpayment assistance program has been adversely impacted by the lack of inventory of homes for sale within a price range affordable to low‐income individuals. East Wenatchee is a small community. Single‐family homes only make up 56% of the total housing units in the City compare to 66% in Douglas County. In November 2017, there were 70 homes for sale that had a list price of $300,000 or less, representing 32% of the total inventory. In November 2020, there were only 24 homes, representing 14% of the inventory. In October 2022, this number dropped to 13, representing 4.88%. The tight market and high cost, makes it difficult to find homes for low‐income buyers. CAPER 9 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) Discuss how these outcomes will impact future annual action plans. It will be important to monitor the progress for this program to determine whether the funds should be reallocated. The City will work closely with HUD staff to improve performance in timely implementation of identified community development strategies and CDBG. The City did not hinder Consolidated Plan implementation by action or willful inaction. Again, the market conditions have impacted the homeownership program. Include the number of extremely low‐income, low‐income, and moderate‐income persons served by each activity where information on income by family size is required to determine the eligibility of the activity. Number of Households Served CDBG Actual HOME Actual Extremely Low‐income 0 0 Low‐income 0 0 Moderate‐income 0 0 Total 0 0 Table 7 – Number of Households Served Narrative Information Again, there were not housing projects funded in 2020. CAPER 10 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) CR‐25 ‐ Homeless and Other Special Needs 91.220(d, e); 91.320(d, e); 91.520(c) Evaluate the jurisdiction’s progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending homelessness through: Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs The City does not directly fund homeless outreach. Outreach is conducted through the work of organizations that operate in East Wenatchee and Wenatchee providing housing and housing support programs serving homeless and those at‐risk of becoming homeless. East Wenatchee has no housing programs and relies upon other local agencies. Elected officials from the City of East Wenatchee are members of the Chelan Douglas Homeless Housing Task Force. City staff also participate in the meetings. The group is responsible for the development of the local homeless strategic plan and recommends awards for the distribution of the Chealn Douglas Counties Homeless Housing fund (RCW 36.22.179 and RCW 36.22.1791), Consolidated Homeless Grant (CHG), Housing & Essential Needs Grant Funds (HEN) and Emergency Solutions Grant funds (ESG). The funding is allocated using a competitive grant application process that is typically on a 2‐year cycle. No CDBG funds are expended. Chelan County is the lead entity for this process. Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons In 2021, the cities of East Wenatchee and Wenatchee enacted a new sales and use tax to fund affordable housing programs including homeless housing and support services. The new Columbia River Homeless Housing Task Force covers East Wenatchee and Wenatchee. Elected officials from both Wenatchee and East Wenatchee, as well as, homeless service providers are members of the task force. Wenatchee is lead entity for this program. The initial focus of the task force is to provide funding for agencies focused on providing low barrier shelter services for homeless individuals and individuals living in RV’s or vehicles. No East Wenatchee CDBG funds are expended. Helping low‐income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low‐income individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after 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); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs CAPER 11 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) No CDBG funds were use, however local Homeless Housing Funding Awards were allocated for Prevention including legal assistance to help a tenant work out a program to avoid a pending eviction. Funding was awarded to an agency that provides transitional housing for individuals that have been released from a correctional facility. Rental assistance programs from various agencies were funded with non‐CDBG funds. The program helps tenants pay rent up to a maximum of 2 years. 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 Homeless Housing Funding Awards were allocated for Rapid Rehousing program. The Rapid Rehousing serviced include landlord liaison program. Some landlords are hesitant to rent to individuals or families with poor rental histories. This program allows landlords to sign up to participate knowing they will have a support system. If there is a problem with the tenant, the landlord can contact the agency. There is also a mitigation reserve that can pay for damages over and above the security deposit. CAPER 12 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) CR‐30 ‐ Public Housing 91.220(h); 91.320(j) Actions taken to address the needs of public housing In 2002, the city of East Wenatchee executed an interlocal governmental cooperation agreement (ILA) with the Housing Authority of Chelan County and the City of Wenatchee. The ILA allows the Housing Authority to operate, under limited circumstances, within the city limits. An East Wenatchee city councilmember serves on that agency’s board of directors. The Housing Authority operated an apartment complex that includes 35 year‐round units for low income farmworkers. The Housing Authority also operates the HUD Section 8 Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program with 578 vouchers. Approximately 150 of the participants in the program reside in East Wenatchee. They also have 110 Veteran’s Assistance Vouchers (VASH). The Housing Authority has a range of services to address the needs of their tenants. Actions taken to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership No activities or actions were taken by the city. However, the Housing Authority offers their tenants and clients a self‐sufficiency education program which includes information on managing money, caring for a home and general life skills. Actions taken to provide assistance to troubled PHAs The Housing Authority is not a troubled PHA. CAPER 13 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) CR‐35 ‐ Other Actions 91.220(j)‐(k); 91.320(i)‐(j) Actions taken 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. 91.220 (j); 91.320 (i) None Taken. Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) None taken other than those mentioned in the Homeless and Other Special Needs section. Actions taken to reduce lead‐based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City maintains a Lead Based Paint page in the Building Department section of the city website that provided educational pamphlets regarding lead‐based paint hazards to tenants, contractors, and homeowners regarding lead‐based paint. The City also works directly with each subrecipient to ensure compliance with the regulations regarding lead‐based paint. Actions taken to reduce the number of poverty‐level families. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The Columbia Valley Homeownership program gives families an opportunity to buy their home. Many single mothers with children effectively use homeownership assistance to stabilize their family situations, find better employment, and slowly build wealth back into their families. Unfortunately, the market value of single‐family homes has increased beyond the capacity for most low‐income residents. Actions taken to develop institutional structure. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) City staff and elected officials actively participate in community efforts to address the needs of low‐income residents. A Councilmember sits on the Housing Aurthority Board. The Mayor, a Councilmember, and Community Development Director regularly attend meetings of the Chelan Douglas Local Homeless Housing Task Force. The Task Force serves as a decision‐making body providing oversight, direction, and guidance for the development and implementation of the Chelan‐Douglas Homeless Plan. A Councilmember and the Communit Development Director participate in the Columbia River Homeless Housing Task Force. This task force was created to provide recommendations in spending a new sales and use tax to fund affordable housing programs including homeless housing and support services. The Task Force covers East Wenatchee and Wenatchee. Elected officials from both Wenatchee and East Wenatchee, as well as, homeless service providers are members of the task force. Wenatchee is lead entity for this program. The initial focus of the task force is to provide funding for agencies focused on CAPER 14 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) providing low barrier shelter services for homeless individuals and individuals living in RV’s or vehicles. No East Wenatchee CDBG funds are expended. Actions taken to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) City staff regularly attend meetings of the Chelan Douglas Homeless Housing Advisory Committee. The Committee includes housing and service providers. Representatives are from the rental association, faith‐based organizations, non‐profits, state and local agencies. The Committee concentrated on outreach and communication between service providers and other public agencies that may be in contact with homeless individuals and families. This group provides recommendations to the cities, counites, and housing and service providers relative to actions that will reduce homelessness, encourage rapid re‐housing, support and educate landlords, and provide information to the general public regarding homelessness. Identify actions taken to overcome the effects of any impediments identified in the jurisdictions analysis of impediments to fair housing choice. 91.520(a) The City maintains and periodically updates a Fair Housing web page in the Community Development Department section of the City website that provided brochures, forms and contact information for people to pursue Fair Housing claims. CAPER 15 OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) CR‐40 ‐ Monitoring 91.220 and 91.230 Describe the standards and procedures used to monitor activities carried out in furtherance of the plan and used to ensure long‐term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements The Community Development Department for the City of East Wenatchee is responsible for the administration of the CDBG Program. This includes the monitoring and evaluation of program activities as they relate to the adopted consolidated plan and annual action plan. City staff monitors subrecipients to ensure all regulatory requirements are met and that the information reported is complete and accurate. Montoring depends on the activity. Construction or acquisition projects will be monitored prior to work beginning and as they progress inorder to ensure compliance with specific federal regulation auch as Davis Bacon, Section 3, NEPA, and Uniform Reolcation and acquisition requirements.
