The Annual Action Plan provides a concise summary of the actions, activities, and the specific federal and non-federal resources that will be used each year to address the priority needs and specific goals identified by the Consolidated Plan. As a federal Entitlement City, Pomona receives funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and is required to report and monitor spending. Grantees report on accomplishments and progress toward Consolidated Plan goals in the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER).

The Consolidated Plan is designed to help states and local jurisdictions to assess their affordable housing and community development needs and market conditions, and to make data-driven, place-based investment decisions. The consolidated planning process serves as the framework for a community-wide dialogue to identify housing and community development priorities that align and focus funding from the CPD formula block grant programs: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) Program, and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Program.

The primary goal of this Citizen Participation Process is to provide and encourage all citizens of the community an opportunity to participate in the planning, implementation, and assessment of this CDBG program. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) sets forth policies and procedures for citizen participation, which are designed to maximize the opportunity for citizen participation in the community development process.

Under HUD’s Code of Federal Regulations for the Consolidated Plan (24 CFR Part 91 Sec.91.105), the City must adopt a Citizen Participation Plan that sets forth the City’s policies and procedures for citizen participation in the planning, execution, and evaluation of the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing, Consolidated Plan, Annual Action Plan, and CAPER.

The CDBG regulations require grantees to submit an Annual Performance Report to HUD within 90 days of the close of a grantee’s program year. This is in accordance with the Consolidated Plan regulations at 24 CFR Part 91 (provided in the Appendix).

Prior to the 1996 Consolidated Plan program year, grantees submitted a Grantee Performance Report (GPR). The report is called the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER).

The Performance Report incorporates not only the old GPR, but also the reporting requirements for the CDBG Program, HOME, Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) and Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG) programs. Requirements discussed below apply to all of these programs, except where noted as CDBG-specific requirements.

Annual reports are used to meet three basic purposes:

Provide HUD with necessary information to assess each grantee’s ability to carry out its programs in compliance with applicable regulations and requirements; 

Provide information necessary for HUD to report to Congress; and Provide grantees with an opportunity to describe its program achievements with their citizens.

The Consolidated Plan helps the City assess affordable housing and community development needs and market conditions and to make data-driven, place-based investment decisions. The consolidated planning process serves as the framework for a community-wide dialogue to identify housing and community development priorities that align and focus funding from the CPD formula block grant programs: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) Program, and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Program. 

The Plan is carried out through Annual Action Plans, which provide a concise summary of the actions, activities, and specific federal and non-federal resources that will be used each year to address the priority needs and specific goals identified by the Plan. Grantees report on accomplishments and progress toward Consolidated Plan goals in the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER).
