Eighth Street Yakima, WA 98901 509-575-6101 CR -05 - Goals and Outcomes Progress the jurisdiction has made in carrying out its strategic plan and its action plan. 91.520(a) This could be an overview that includes major initiatives and highlights that were proposed and executed throughout the program year. Each year the City of Yakima receives funding from the Federal Government for two entitlement programs; Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) funds. The City of Yakima continues to use the bulk of it's CDBG funding to address "Single Family Rehabilitation" in the form of a "Senior/Disabled Emergency Repair Program" that assists qualified low to moderate income senior and/or disabled homeowners with emergency type repairs to include, no heat, no power, no hot water, leaking pipes, leaking roof or other such emergency repairs. The Single Family Rehabilitation program also includes an Exterior Paint program and a Wheel Chair Ramp program for qualified low to moderate senior and or disabled homeowners. CDBG funds also assists four eligible activities in the Public Service category of National Objectives. The first is a funding of public service programs administered through South East Community Center for low to moderate income citizens. The second is a Landlord Tenant Hotline administered through the Office of Neighborhood Development Services to provide Landlord/Tenant advice as well as information material for both Landlords and Tenants explaining Washington States Landlord Tenant regulations in order to provide "Affirmatively Futhering Fair Housing" as required by HUD. The third eligible activity supported by CDBG through the Public Service category is a "Micro -enterprise assistance" to support existing micro -enterprises as well as giving technical assistance to new micro -enterprises. The fourth public service is provided directly to low to moderate homeowners through the Paint out graffiti program in addressing graffiti which directly affects lower income residential areas of Yakima. CDBG has also supported the eligible activity of Code Compliance in order to enable the Yakima Code Department to further assist low to moderate income areas with the continued clean up efforts associated with Code Compliance through assisting the payroll of staff. The HOME program continues to support local Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO) such as Yakima Valley Habitat for Humanity in purchasing vacant Tots or lots that have vacant/abandoned buildings that are substandard and in need of abatement. The qualified CHDO in partnership with the City of Yakima constructs a new single family dwelling which is then sold to a qualified low to moderate first time homebuyer.

Discuss how these outcomes will impact future annual action plans. As with any estimate, factors must be weighted, measured and calculated through experience, as with past annual action plans, future annual action plans must be carefully considered as to potential funding amounts, cost associated with accomplishing the task and weighted against the need.

Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City of Yakima continues to work with the Homeless Network of Yakima County to provide emergency shelters at various locations throughout the city as well as working with the Yakima Housing Authority to provide transitional housing for the homeless. 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 The City of Yakima Office of Neighborhood Development Services continues to operate a Senior/Disabled Emergency home repair program to assist individuals to stay in their homes and not become displaced through disrepair of their homes. Many individuals are referred to this program through local health care facilities that are looking to send these individuals home after care, but emergency repairs such as grab bars/ wheelchair accessible bathrooms or wheelchair ramps are needed before the homeowner can return. Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again The City of Yakima continues to work with agencies such as the local Housing Authority, Yakima Valley Habitat for Humanity, the Catholic Diocese of Yakima as well as the Homeless Network of Yakima county CAPER 12 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015) to assist the homeless within the city limits of Yakima.
