TITLE: 2018 CAPER Overview
DEPT: Community Development
DATE: September 26, 2019
SUBMITTED BY: Linda Reid, Housing Program Specialist
The City of Ashland is an entitlement city under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development’s (HUD) CDBG Program. The City of Ashland receives approximately $175,000 each
year from HUD to apply toward housing and community development projects that benefit low- and
moderate-income persons in Ashland. The Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report
(CAPER) summarizes the individual project status (physical and financial) of those improvements
funded with CDBG funds for the Program year 2018. The CAPER reports the accomplishments
generated by the activities funded in Program Year 2018 and how those activities allow the City to make
progress in meeting the outcomes and goals identified in the 2015-2019 Consolidated plan. This report
must be completed and submitted to HUD as a part of the requirements the City must meet to continue
to receive CDBG funding.
CAPER 2018
For the Program Year 2018 The City of Ashland awarded 4 projects with CDBG funds:
Maslow Project - A social service grant for $7,143 was awarded to the Maslow Project to
provide education, outreach, resources, referrals and case management to Homeless and at-risk
youth and families in the Ashland school district. This activity helped the city continue to work
toward reducing homelessness among youth in the Ashland School District. This activity served
99 homeless youth
St. Vincent De Paul- A social service grant for $16,665 was awarded to the St. Vincent De Paul
Home Visitation Program to provide rent and security deposit assistance. This activity assisted
the City in working to prevent and reduce the incidence of homelessness. This activity assisted
36 individuals attain or retain housing thus far.
Public Works-Audible signal installation. The City awarded the Public Works Department a
grant of $20,000 to install audible crosswalk signals in the public right of way. This
improvement is estimated to benefit approximately 981 visually impaired individuals within the
City of Ashland (according to census data), there is no way to estimate the number of visually
impaired visitors that this improvement may benefit.
Ashland Fire and Rescue-Housing Safety Program. The City awarded Ashland Fire and
Rescue a $50,000 grant to complete repairs and improvements on homes occupied by frail,
elderly and disabled residents to prevent falls and improve the health and safety of those
individuals while allowing them to stay safely in their homes for a longer period of time. To
date this program has assisted 15 households.

The City of Ashland is an entitlement jurisdiction, receiving an annual allocation of Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD). As a recipient of CDBG funds, the City is required to prepare a five-year strategic plan that
identifies housing and community needs, prioritizes these needs, identifies resources to address the
needs, and establishes annual goals and objectives to meet the identified needs. This five year plan is
known as the Consolidated Plan.
The purpose of the Consolidated Plan is to outline a strategy for the City to follow in using CDBG

During PY 2018 the City of Ashland continued working toward meeting its homeless, at-risk and
special needs priorities for supportive services through activities such as emergency rent and utility
funding for low-income households at risk of homelessness by supporting the St. Vincent De Paul Home
Visitation Program as well as Maslow Project, by providing assistance to homeless school children. The
City awarded funds to Columbia Care to complete the acquisition of land on which to build a low income
housing complex for peoples with mental illness. The City also awarded funding to the Public Works
department to install audible crosswalk signals for peoples with hearing impairment, and to Ashland Fire
and Rescue to complete safety repairs in households occupied by low income seniors and peoples with
disabilities. Lastly, the City awarded funding to Habitat for Humanity to purchase land on which to build
five units of affordable ownership housing. Neither Columbia Care nor Habitat have completed the

specific objectives identified in the plan, giving special attention to the highest priority
activities identified.
In April of 2015, the City of Ashland adopted the Five-Year Consolidated Plan (2015-2019). Eleven
priorities (goals) are identified in the Five-Year Consolidated Plan. The priorities are not ranked in order
of importance, however some have a higher priority than others.
The assessment provided in this CAPER covers the 2018 Program year (July 1, 2018-June 30, 2019).
For the 2018 Program year the City continued to support several activities which had been supported
in previous years. These activities continue to provide supportive services to some of the most
vulnerable populations in the City while also meeting several goals of the 2015-2019 Consolidated Plan.
Affordable and Workforce Housing: In the five year strategic plan the City identified several numerical
goals for the creation, preservation, and maintenance of new and existing housing units to be occupied
by low income households. Since the adoption of the Five Year Consolidated Plan the City has added 1
CAPER 5
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018)
rental unit targeted to low-income populations and deed restricted for long term affordability. In
Program Year 2018 the City did not add any new deed restricted affordable ownership units. The City
did award funds to an affordable housing project in 2018 utilizing remaining 2017 funds. Unfortunately,
the project was unable to utilize the CDBG funding as the stormwater mitigation required to meet NEPA
standards increased the cost to the point of making the project unfeasible even with the addition of
CDBG funds. Consequently the grantee declined the award. One new affordable housing project were
submitted for funding in program year 2018, however that project has not moved forward. Please see
tables 2A, 1C, 2C, and 3A for details.
Homeless, At-Risk and Special Needs Populations: The five year strategic identifies four specific
activities to assist homeless, special needs, and senior populations. In program year 2018 the City
continued to make progress on these goals for homeless, at-risk and special needs populations. In 2018
the City funded two projects that serve homeless and populations at-risk of homeless; Maslow Project
which served 70 homelessness and at-risk youth with a variety of services ranging from resource
referrals to ongoing case-management, St. Vincent De Paul Home program was able to prevent
homelessness for 12 individuals by assisting them to obtain or maintain housing. The City also awarded
funds in the 2018 program year to Ashland Fire and Rescue to complete repairs to prevent falls and
provide basic health and safety needs in the homes of elderly and disabled citizens. Lastly, the City
provided funding to the public works department to install audible crosswalk signals to aid the hearing
impaired. All of these activities taken together have allowed the City to make headway on the identified
numerical goals for the year.
Economic and Community Development: CDBG funds were not used in direct support of this goal in
program year 2018.

the City have any areas that quality as being affected by slum or blight conditions. Consequently, the
city did not target any CDBG funds to a designated area.
The City utilizes a declining amount of CDBG funding to work toward meeting the goals identified in
the five year strategic plan. The City also utilizes some general fund money to address the needs
identified in the five year strategic plan, however, the City does not require reporting from all agencies
receiving funding on the use of those funds, consequently the City will report on those outcomes within
the numerical goals listed.

needs identified in the plan.
Applicants who applied for CDBG funding identified over $222,615 in matching funds from
federal, state, local, and private sources. For the 2018 program year the City awarded
$146,314 in grant funding. While the City itself did not use CDBG funds to leverage other public
and private resources, local non-profits have reported the CDBG funds to be essential in
obtaining private donations and other public and private grants. With regard to projects
funded in PY 2018 the amount leveraged from other sources totals $222,615.

in the Rogue Valley requires more incentive to level the playing field. Similarly, there is a relative
scarcity of multi-family zoned, flat, readily developable land within the City which can make it more
expensive and more difficult for affordable housing develpers to site projects in Ashland. Lastly, like
many communities, issues of NIMBY-ism can cause costly delays and potentially derail an affordable
housing project in a small community such as Ashland. Recently the City participated in a regional
planning process to look at strategies to meet housing demand across the valley. The plan identified
several barriers to the development of multi-family rental housing within the Ashland market. These
barriers are detailed below.
CAPER 10
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018)
Median Home prices and rents in Ashland are higher than surrounding areas
New development must capture premium rents or sales prices to be financially viable given
current construction costs and high land prices.
Narrow niche markets such as medium-term (e.g. 3- to 6-month) rentals and housing aimed at
university students are among the only segments that can currently sustain high enough rents to
cover the costs of new development.
Securing financing for apartment projects in small markets like Ashland is a challenge. Few local
real estate investors have enough capital to buy an apartment building (vs. a single
condominium or town home unit), and outside investors rarely show interest in small markets.
Condominium conversions can displace tenants, but for an apartment property in financial
distress, converting to condominiums allows the owner to sell some units andpotentially
refinance the remainder.
Discuss how these outcomes will impact future annual action plans.

Narrative Information
The City has awarded funding to five projects; one affordable housing development expected to
produce 25-30 units of affordable housing for low income households with some units reserved for
peoples experiancing severe persistant mental illness was funding in the previous program year, but did
not move forward due primarily to a large funding gap to cover precipitously rising construction
costs. Similarly the applicant returned to CDBG funding due to the increased cost related to stormwater
requirements through the enviornomental review process. This is not the first time that the City has
had difficutlites getting affordable housing providers to accept federal funding due to the regulatory
constraints. Of the five projects awarded none of them created or retained new or existisng affordable
housing.

Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their
individual needs
The City has done a very good job of meeting the specific objectives for reducing homelessness
identified in the five year consolidated plan. The City is fortuneate to have several providers in the
region who partner effectively around the issues of homelessness. Similarly, the City continues its
strong committement to involvement in the Jackson County Homeless Task Force the Jackson County
Continuum of Care Board, of which the City's leadership is represented.
Program year 2018 was the eleventh year that the HTF organized a Project Community Connect
Event. In the 2009 program year the City of Ashland in partnership with the many other individual
members and organizations of the Homeless Task Force put on the first annual Project Homeless
Connect Event in Jackson County. Since that time new partner organizations and private sector
businesses have donated their time and services to the event. Over the past few years the coordination
effort has become more efficient, organized, and inclusive. The purpose of the event is always to
connect homeless populations and those at risk of homelessness to service providers, government
agencies and community resources. The Project Community Connect event also serves as an
opportunity for individual community members to welcome those experiencing homelessness or on the
verge of homelessness back into the community through volunteerism and recognition. The event
provided a hot meal and resources from partner agencies such as La Clinica, a community health center,
The
year the event was attended by approximately 485 participants.
The Jackson County Ten Year Plan to end homelessness is available on the Jackson County Website at:
http://www.co.jackson.or.us/files/10-Year_Plan_to_End_Homelessness.pdf The City of Ashland
continues to contribute to a coordinated effort to serve the Homeless populations and those at risk of
homelessness by working to carry out the six strategies identified in the plan.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
There are currently no permanent overnight shelters or transitional housing options located within the
City of Ashland. In Program year 2018 Options for Homeless Residents of Ashland (OHRA) in
coordination with Access, the community action agency of Jackson County, the City of Ashland,
members of the faith community, and dedicated volunteers worked diligently to identify a location and
support services to offer a seven day a week shelter in one location to the most vulnerable citizens in a
comprehensive and coordinated way. To that end, the work group identified a location in the County
which could serve as a single site location for the seven day a week shelter continuously from November
CAPER 12

decision from the County, community volunteers, churches and the City coordinated to offer five nights
of shelter every week and during incidents of extreme bad weather throughout the winter months of
2018-2019. CDBG funding is not used to support this effort. Currently the City is continuing to work
with community volunteers and Access to implement the 7 night a week shelter in the County approved
location that will continue to be staffed by volunteers from November through April. The City is also
working regionally to develop a regional year round emergency shelter.

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 directs over $100,000 in general fund dollars to safety net services each year. Awards to
selected service providers are made on a two year cycle, with recipients receiving the full award amount
on July 1st, of each year. Therefore the award indicated in table 2 below is an annual allocation and the
recipient ultimately receives twice the amount listed. Several homeless service providers, low income
health care, and essential continuum of care services are funded each year. In the 2018 program year
the Social Service Grants awarded totaled $134,00. Given the relatively small size of the award
requests, -profits to direct the award
to services with a minimal amount of grant administration costs. The City has not directed funds
specifically toward addressing the needs of persons with special needs that may require supportive
housing (such as persons with HIV/AIDs) preferring instead to target funding and staff time to serving
the needs of all populations experiencing or at risk of homelessness. If an affordable housing provider
applied for CDBG funds to support the development of permanent supportive or transitional housing for
those experiencing homelessness, at risk of homelessness, or living with a disease that necessitated
supportive housing that application would meet several of the The

Table 9 - 2017-2018 City Social Service Grant
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
As mentioned previously in the document the City awarded funds to the St. Vincent De Paul Home
visitation program and the Maslow project, both activities work with homeless and at-risk populations
to stabilize and improve their situations. The St. Vincent De Paul program primarily assists homeless and
those at risk of homelessness to obtain and maintain housing through security deposit and rental
assistance and case management. Often the volunteers in this program are able to offer such support
services as obtaining SSI and SSD, or assisting with job search and employment. Though these activities
are not directly captured in reporting data, the service is part of the mission of the Home Visitation
program and as such can contribute to a reduction of the number of people living in poverty. Similarly,
Maslow Project provides resources, referrals, and case management for homeless and at-risk
populations, along with other services which are also not captured in the CDBG reporting data. The
Jackson County Homeless Task Force and Continuum of Care members (which includes representation
from Ashland) works with publicly funded institutions and systems of care to coordinate around
discharge planning. Lastly, the Ashland Community Resource Center, which is supported in part by City
of Ashland social service grant funds assists homeless and at risk populations in a variety of ways,
including employment and housing and shelter supports, life skills and case management supports,
laundry and shower services as well as general resource referral.

The City continues to consider the potential impacts to affordable housing that changes in the Ashland
Land Use Ordinance (ALUO) may have, as well as to look at ways that the ALUO needed to be updated in
order to promote affordable housing and housing types. Similarly, the City staff is working on updated
t
support the development of affordable housing. To that end in 2018, with a grant for the Department
of Land Conservation, the City was able to hire a consultant, EcoNorthwest, to undertake an evaluation
, and determine what measures, if any, could remove
barriers or provide incentives to the development of multifamily rental housing. The Study was called
the Ashland Housing Strategies Plan. The strategies considered within that document were identified in
a recent regional housing study:
Increases to maximum allowed density (i.e., dwelling units per acre), height limits, and lot
coverage allowances in the R-2 (Medium Density Residential) and R-3 (High Density Residential).
Decreases to parking requirements for multifamily housing.
A property tax abatement program for multifamily housing that meets locally established
criteria.
The study identified that the most limiting development code factor is the maximum density
(dwelling units per acre) standard.
density, and parking ratios offer some construction cost savings, but their main impact is to spread the
cost of land over more units. If construction costseven with greater building efficienciesare so high
relative to rents or sales prices that a development cannot afford to pay for land at all, adding more
units makes a project less, not more, viable. As market conditions evolve over time, the details of which
developments are viable will shift and change. However, any multifamily development that can balance
rents or sales prices with development costs will be able to better afford the high costs of land in
Ashland if they can achieve higher densities. While the multiple unit tax exemption program has
limitations, it benefits multifamily developments that are marginally feasible but cannot afford high land
costs. If applied specifically to rental housing, the tax abatement could help apartments compete with
Ultimately the Study surmised that there is little the City can do to overcome financing challenges for
apartment development in small markets. However, the study identified that the City does have some
abilty to impact outcomes by removing zoning code obstacles to multifamily development to avoid
being part of the problem. The study also identified additional actions the City can take such as offering
incentives for development of multifamily rental housing at a range of price points to become a larger

The Housing and Community Development Act of 1992 requires communities to include in their
Consolidated Plan a description of an anti-poverty strategy. The City of Ashland has limited resources
for addressing the issues involved in reducing poverty and improving the self-sufficiency of low-income
residents. Affordable housing is one of the factors directly related to poverty that the City of Ashland
does have some ability to influence, and the related goals are covered in the Housing Goals section. In
addition, the City supports housing, social service, and economic development programs targeted at the
continuum of care needs of the homeless.
In another effort to address poverty within Ashland, during 2001-2002 the City of Ashland passed a
Living Wage Ordinance. This ordinance requires that employees of the City, or employers receiving
financial assistance or business from the City in excess of approximately $15,000 (adjusts annually) must
pay a minimum of $14.19 per hour (adjusted annually) to employees engaged in work related to the City
project or service contract. The City of Ashland operates a variety of funding and other assistance
programs which, together, strategically address the goals of reducing poverty and improving the self-
sufficiency of low-income residents. The activities undertaken in conjunction with this anti-poverty
strategy can be separated into two primary areas of effort: human services programs targeted at the
continuum of care needs; and affordable housing programs. The City of Ashland provides funding to
agencies that address the needs of low income and homeless residents through a Social Service Grant
program. The goal of this program is to improve living conditions and self sufficiency for residents by
meeting such basic needs as food, shelter, clothing, counseling and basic health care. The goal is carried
out by providing funds in excess of $100,000 every year to various area agencies whose focus meets one
CAPER 17

or more of these targeted needs.
The Social Service Grant program is funded entirely with general fund dollars from the City of Ashland
budget. The award process is coordinated with the City of Medford and the United Way of Jackson
County. Local agencies and organizations providing continuum of care activities in the Rogue Valley
coordinate their applications through a Community Services Consortium. The coordination of services
and related funding requests through the consortium attempts to insure that the broad range of needs
is met without overlap or duplication of service. -poverty strategy

As mentioned previously in years past the City of Ashland worked with the Housing Authority of
Jackson County to complete a sixty unit affordable rental housing development. The City also worked
with ACCESS on a project to create six new affordable rental units targeted to low income
households. More recently the City has worked with Columbia Care and the Housing Authority to help
facilitate the predevelopment activities in support of 90 units of affordable housing between the two
agencies. The City continues to look for opportunities to work with for profit and non-profit housing

events and lastly, policy review and amendment to include expanded fair housing language. Most
recently the City sponsored a fair housing training for landlords and property managers and provided
fair housing training to City commissioners. the City also provides ongoing support for the Fair Housing
Council of Oregon's fair housing hotline, and regulary engages with that organization around trainings

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
Each Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Year the City reviews each CDBG activity
that was underway and ranks the sub-
criteria on the form provided. The designated points on the rating form are established to prove a
means of quantifying a Risk Factor and are useful as tools in determining the extent of monitoring for a
given activity. Other factors, as deemed relevant by the City of Ashland, can be used in establishing a
higher or lower risk factor than the numerical rating system. A CDBG monitoring visit may consist of an
on-site monitoring or a desk monitoring. All CDBG grantees will be monitored once prior to a contract
being administratively closed. The areas monitored may include:
The CDBG staff objectives for monitoring are to determine if grantees are:
Carrying out their CDBG-funded activities as described in their contracts (as modified or
amended);
Carrying out the program or project in a timely manner in accordance with the schedule
included in the CDBG contract;
Charging costs to the program or project which are eligible under applicable regulations;
Complying with other applicable laws, regulations and terms of the CDBG contract;
Conducting the program in a manner which minimizes the opportunity for fraud, waste and
mismanagement; and
Have a continuing capacity to carry out the approved program or project.
Overall management system, record keeping and progress in activities.
When a grantee is found to be out of compliance, CDBG staff will identify a specific period of time in
which compliance should be achieved. Usually the grantee will have 30 days to correct
deficiencies. Copies of supporting documentation demonstrating that corrective action has been taken
will be required. Additional time for corrective action may be allowed on a case by case basis. Failure
by the grantee to correct deficiencies may result in funds being withheld and possible restrictions on
future grants.

Memo
DATE: September 26, 2019
TO: Housing and Human Services Commission
FROM: Linda Reid
RE: HB 2916 Next Steps Update and Discussion
nd
At the Regular Housing and Human Services Commission meeting held on August 22, the
Commissioners expressed an interest in developing a plan to educate the public about the changes
enacted in HB 2916, and to develop recommendations to the city council for the potential use of HB
2916 as tool to alleviate issues of Homelessness in Ashland. Two action items discussed were: to
request for a study session with a list of available city owned property that fits with the bill’s parameters,
and for commissioners to meet with Pam Marsh for clarification of the Legislature’s ideas included in

RE: Commissions Attendance Policy
2.10.025 Meetings and Attendance
A. Unless otherwise provided by law, the number of meetings related to business needs of an advisory
commission, or boards may be set by the advisory body.
B. The Planning Commission and Budget Committee shall set their own meeting attendance
requirements. All members of other Regular or ad hoc advisory bodies must attend at least seventy-five
percent (75%) of the full advisory body’s noticed meetings, study sessions and special meetings in each
full year of their tenure. A person removed from the advisory body for noncompliance with attendance
requirements subsequently may be appointed to fill the vacancy on the advisory body by means of the
normal appointment process of that advisory body.
C. A member should provide at least 48-hour notice to both the chair of the advisory body and the staff
liaison regarding any planned absence from a scheduled meeting of the advisory body. In the event an
unexpected emergency will cause a member to be absent from the meeting, the member must, if
possible, notify the chair or the staff liaison within a reasonable time in advance of the meeting.
D. Generally, advisory bodies may not allow alternates to represent or stand in for a member at a
meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing preclusion of alternates, on Regular and ad hoc advisory bodies
with some members who are appointed by an entity other than the Mayor and City Council and who
serve as a representative of the appointing entity, an alternate may participate and vote for the named
member by proxy at any meeting of the advisory body. Such participation by the alternate will be
deemed to be attendance by the named member. Individuals directly appointed by the Mayor and
approved by the Council may not be represented by alternates.
E. Each advisory body should review member attendance and report to the City Recorder approximately
every six months. City Recorder will advise the Mayor on the need for appointments or re-appointments,
if necessary. (Ord. 3100, amended, 2014; Ord. 3003, added, 02/18/2010)

Mayor shall appoint a replacement for the remainder of the term in accordance with paragraph C. above.
Notwithstanding the above procedure, removal of a Planning Commissioner shall be governed by the
procedures in ORS 227.030 and removal of any member of the Recreation Commission or the Planning
Commission is not subject to this section. Hearings under ORS 227.030 are hereby delegated by the
governing body to the City Administrator or Hearings Officer in accordance with the AMC 2.30, the
Uniform Administrative Appeals Ordinance.
