In reviewing these recommendations it would be appropriate for the City Council to
remember that only three broad funding categories are considered eligible under
CDBG-regulations. A project must either provide benefits to low or moderate-income
persons, eliminate slum or blighted conditions, or is an urgent need. In addition, of the
CDBG funds received, no more than 15% ($172,455) of the annual grant amount can
be used for public services, no more than 20% ($233,340) of the grant amount plus
program income can be used for Planning and Administrative services, and, at least,
70% of all funds must be used for low-to-moderate income activities.

Of the HOME funds received, no more than 10% ($55,120) can be used for
administrative and program delivery activities. At least 15% ($82,680) must be set
aside for Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO), as constituted
under the regulations. In addition, up to 5% ($27,560) can be used by a CHDO for
operating expenses. The balance of funds can only be used for housing activities.
Following this public hearing, staff will prepare the necessary documentation required to

p•~°1Executive Summary
Each year between May and July, the City of Rosemead submits an Annual Action Plan ("Action
Plan") covering the period July 1 ` of that year through June 30th of the following year to the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). An Action Plan is required by HUD in
order for the City to receive federal funds under the Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) programs. The Action Plan includes the
proposed activities, resources and expenditures for the CDBG and HOME programs. This is the
fourth of five Action Plans under the City's 2005-2009 Consolidated Plan.
A more general summary of each project and each amount the City is proposing in the 2009-10
FY can be found in Tables 1 and 2 on page 7. In general, the City will continue to carry out
program administration, fair housing, residential programs, and public services that aid youth, at-
risk families, seniors, and the disabled. In addition, the City will continue to use a portion of
CDBG funds for its code enforcement program and provide for infrastructure and improvements
to the City. Both of these programs will principally take place in the City's adopted
target/revitalization areas.
Q Jurisdiction
The City of Rosemead is located in the San Gabriel Valley in the eastern portion of Los Angeles
County. Rosemead was incorporated as a City in 1959. The City enjoys good access to major
transportation corridors including San Bernardino Freeway (Interstate 10), San Gabriel River
Freeway (Interstate 605), Rosemead Boulevard - a California State Highway (Route 19), Mission
Drive, Temple City Boulevard, Valley Boulevard, and Walnut Grove Avenue. Rosemead is a
predominantly built-out suburban community and serves as a residential suburb for surrounding
employment centers such as Los Angeles. Most of the land area has been developed as low-
density housing.
Allocating Investment for FY 2009-10
Based on HUD recommendations, general relative priories for funding will be as follows:
• High Priority: Activities to address this need will be funded during the five-year
period.
Development Services Business Unit 1 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
• Medium Priority: If funds are available, activities to address this need may be funded
by the City during the five-year period. Also, the City may use other sources of
funds and take actions to locate other sources of funds.
• Low Priority: It is not likely the City will fund activities to address this need during
the five-year period. The City will consider certifications of consistency for other
entities' applications for assistance.
In accordance with the City's Consolidated Plan, the City will allocate CDBG and HOME funds
to the City's High Priority Needs.
Development Services Business Unit 2 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
ACTION PLAN - 91.220
The Consolidated Plan is an effort by the Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD) to simplify the planning process and increase community participation by combining four
HUD grant applications and submissions into a single document. The City of Rosemead
Consolidated Plan has been developed for the years 2005-2009.
The Action Plan serves as an update to the Consolidated Plan for the next five years. It identifies
the federal, state, and local resources expected to be available to meet priority objectives set forth
by the Consolidated Plan. It also serves as the City's annual application for Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) funds, which
are received from HUD.
At the end of this section are tables that provide a description of the activities the City plans to
undertake during Fiscal Year July 1, 2009 - June 30, 2010 in order to address needs identified in
the City of Rosemead's Consolidated Plan. Proposed projects include those to be funded with
CDBG and HOME funds.
HUD Required Forms
Forms required by HUD are included following this section of the Consolidated Plan. These
forms include the Standard Form 424, Funding Sources, Listing of Proposed Projects, Needs
Assessment, and Certifications.

Summary of Development Process
The City's Development Services Business Unit was responsible for the preparation of the FY
2009-2010 Action Plan. In preparing the Action Plan, input was sought from a variety of public
agencies and non-profit and for-profit housing groups to determine housing needs for the
community. The City's Development Services Business Unit facilitated the consultation with,
and participation of, public and private social and homeless service agencies as well as citizens
concerned with these services. The offices, agencies, and housing groups contacted are listed in
Appendix B. The following outline details the citizen participation activities implemented
during the preparation process of the Action Plan.

variety of state and local funds, including but not limited to:
• Redevelopment Funds
• General Funds
• In-kind Donations

Geographic Distribution
Included in the above-mentioned "Listing of Proposed Projects" Table is the location in the
community of each proposed activity for FY 2009-10.
In order to prevent the concentration of low-income persons, City housing programs are
marketed and available throughout the City. The programs are not directed to any one
geographical area but rather the extremely low to moderate-income (0 to 80% of the MR)
persons and families. The City wants to promote a balanced and integrated community and is
committed to providing assistance throughout the City.
The only exception to this policy is the Code Enforcement activity which is limited to eligible
low and moderate-income block groups based on an official designation of deteriorating and/or
deteriorated areas and are referred to as an area benefit activity.
An area benefit is an activity that meets the identified needs of low and moderate-income
persons residing in an area where at least 51% of the residents are low and moderate-income
persons. The benefits of this type of activity are available to all persons in the area regardless of
income. Potentially eligible activities include street improvements, fagade improvements in
neighborhood commercial districts, graffiti removal, and code enforcement.
The new Low and Moderate-Income Summary Data (LMISD), resulting from the 2000 Census,
became effective on July 1, 2003. The LMISD is the data that the City uses for our official
determinations of activity compliance with the low and moderate-income area benefit national
objective, in accordance with the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as
amended, and the CDBG regulations.
Because timely use of this data is required by regulation, any changes to the City's existing
service area boundaries would need to be approved by the City Council. The City Council has
previously approved the service area boundaries shown in Appendix C, as the City's official low
and moderate-income "Target Areas" and "Deteriorating Areas".
The City has traditionally used 80% or more of its CDBG resources to benefit these special areas
and/or to operate programs available exclusively to low and moderate-income people (whereas
HUD regulations only require a minimum 70% low/mod benefit level for CDBG activities). In
order to continue to achieve this high ratio of low/mod benefit for its CDBG resources, and
because of the compelling need to assist these target areas, the City will continue to target CDBG
resources to these special geographic areas.

Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities -

Homeless
HUD has recently increased its focus on the issue of homelessness. This is part of a larger federal
strategy being embraced by state and local leaders to end long-term or chronic homelessness for
persons who are mentally ill, physically disabled or substance abusers. Unfortunately, the U.S.
Census Bureau does not produce counts of the population experiencing homelessness. However,
special procedures were developed to ensure the Census 2000 included people without conventional
housing, who may be missed in the traditional enumeration of housing units and group quarters.
These special procedures included counting people living at emergency and transitional shelters,
receiving services at facilities providing free meals, as well as people staying at identifiable outdoor
locations. Thus, these special procedures were designed to include, in the overall population count,
people who might otherwise be missed during the regular enumeration. Due to the lack of
information from the Census 2000. the information concerning the nature and extent of homelessness
in Rosemead comes from an analysis of secondary research sources (such as Federal agencies and
national non-profit organizations).
In December of 1993, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and the Mayor and City Council
of Los Angeles created the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA). LAHSA provides
funding and guidance for a vast network of local, non-profit agencies with missions to help people
leave homelessness permanently. These agencies are dedicated to providing as much assistance as
feasible to help homeless persons with housing, case management, counseling, advocacy, substance
abuse programs, and other specialized services.
The City is a member of the San Gabriel Valley Homeless Coalition and participates in the
Countywide Continuum of Care through the Los Angeles Homeless Service Authority for HUD
SuperNOFA funds. In this capacity, the City staff attends meetings of social service providers,
supplies information to the umbrella organization responsible for coordinating the continuum, and
receives information from them. In addition, the City works with public service agencies and others
to identify services and service gaps in the community to ensure that citizens looking for services are
referred to agencies that can be of the most assistance to them. As part of SPA-3 for homelessness,
the City participates in the Los Angeles Service Authority (LAHSA) plan to eliminate homelessness
by 2012.
In 2005, the City's Development Services Business Unit, in conjunction with Code Enforcement and
the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department, undertook a homeless count night. Potential sites
were identified in advance as locations for the homeless. A homeless count was conducted at these
sites, along with follow-up sites during the evening hours. As a result, staff encountered seven (7)
persons at the twenty sites visited. All of these persons stated that they were homeless. Of these,
three (3) were female and four (4) were male. Four (4) identified themselves as White, while three
(3) identified themselves as Hispanic. They ranged in age from 32 to 63 years of age. The majority
reported that they had alcohol or substance abuse issues, while three (3) were disabled.
Homelessness ranged from I week after leaving a correctional facility to ten years or more. All
respondents' received information regarding services, although the majority stated they didn't know
if they would follow-up.
Development Services Business Unit 9 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
This is the City's third homeless count since 1999. In the first count, eight (8) persons were
found, of which four (4) stated they were homeless. Three (3) had alcohol/substance abuse
problems and two (2) were mentally disabled. All declined services. In addition, in 1999, the
Urban Research Group conducted a survey of homelessness in the San Gabriel Valley. It
identified 18 persons who had requested services. Nine (9) of those persons lacked a permanent
address. The homeless population was estimated at between 13 and 16. This represented a
decline from the 1990 Census in which 20 individuals and one (1) family were identified as
homeless.
In the homeless count conducted in 2002, staff found four (4) persons, two (2) of whom claimed
to be homeless and unsheltered, one (1) who was unresponsive, but appeared to be unsheltered
and one (1) whom was intoxicated and sleeping.
Based on the three (3) counts, unsheltered homelessness within the City has remained low and
fairly constant since a decline after the 1990 Census. It has ranged from approximately 16 to a
low of 4.
In response to homelessness, the City has prepared its staff to refer inquires to the Development
Services Business Unit, Housing Services Division, who respond to the homeless in a positive
way to ensure that their needs are met. The City's Housing Services Division has provided it
staff with instructions to direct the needy and homeless to an agency or provider that meets its
needs. On average, there are five or less requests for assistance per year.
Currently, the City provides the following supportive services to homeless individuals and
families through the following agencies and service providers:
211 LA County: 211 LA County is dedicated to providing an easy-to-use,
caring, professional source of guidance, advocacy, and 24 hours 7 days per week
access to a comprehensive range of human services to the people of Los Angeles
County. In addition, 211 LA County also has special contracts to operate the
Cold Weather Shelter Hotline for the County of Los Angeles, and provides
staffing and human services information for emergency centers during disasters.
Catholic Rainbow Outreach: Provides shelter and rehabilitation for men with
drug and alcohol abuse problems. This shelter has 13 beds that are available.
Down Payment Assistance Program: The City of Rosemead has funds
available to assist low income residents with the purchase of their first home. The
assistance is in the form is a silent second loan (no payments until the loan is paid
or until 30 years from the loan origination), and is available to low income
families who have not owned a home within the previous three years. The
amount of the loan will vary depending on the value of the house to be purchased
to assist the homebuyer in achieving a 25% down payment. The maximum
allowable loan is currently $70,000.

Los Angeles Homeless Service Authority (LAHSA): LAHSA Emergency
Response Teams (ERT"s) are available to assist residents Monday through Friday
from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. LAHSA ERT's offer outreach services to homeless
encampment dwellers, emergency services and shelter referrals to homeless
families and unaccompanied adults and youth, direct emergency services and
transportation, and emergency assistance and referrals to social service agencies
for people in the County of Los Angeles who are homeless or at risk of
experiencing homelessness.
People for People: Provides short-term services (food) directly. Its primary
purpose is to assist the needy residents of the City. The group is made up of
volunteers that raise funds year-round to provide distribution of food to families.
^r Section 8 Housing Assistance Agency: Provides rental assistance through the
Federal Section 8 Voucher program. The primary objective of the Section 8
Voucher Rental Assistance program is to assist low-income (0 to 50% of MFI)
persons and households, including those who are homeless or in danger of
becoming homeless, in making rents affordable. The Housing Authority of the
County of Los Angeles (HACoLA) serves the City of Rosemead and provides
Section 8 assistance to the residents.
The San Gabriel Pomona Valley Chapter of the American Red Cross:
Provides emergency shelter for people who become homeless because of natural
disasters.
The Salvation Army: Provides a variety of services including shelter service for
men and women focusing on substance abuse treatments and halfway houses,
provides residential long-term treatment for persons with co-occurring mental and
substance abuse disorders, overnight shelter, food, shower facilities, and case
management to homeless persons.
The Southern California Housing Rights Center: Provides counseling
assistance to families at risk of homelessness.

become homeless as a result of domestic violence. Services include 24-hour
access to emergency housing and crisis hotline, food and basic personal items,
crisis support and advocacy, counseling and support groups, medical and legal
advocacy, and specialized children's services.
Overall, the City has not experienced an overwhelming population of homeless persons and has
not experienced an outpouring of public concern to provide additional services within its
boundaries. Social service agencies and providers within Rosemead and adjacent communities
(where nearly all major services are provided) have not expressed that there is an extraordinary
need to provide emergency shelters within Rosemead, as adequate facilities are available nearby
and are not always filled to capacity.
Development Services Business Unit 1 I Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
The City will consider, should the need arise, amending the Municipal Code to permit
emergency shelters by conditional use permit, and transitional housing by right, in the MFR
(Multiple Family Residential) zone. Where appropriate, the City will assist developers and/or
providers in the procurement of land, oft-site improvements and/or financing for the construction
of emergency shelters and/or transitional housing. Where feasible and appropriate, the City will
assist developers and/or providers in the purchase and rehabilitation of existing structures for
transitional housing. The City will consider commencing programs to organize churches, non-
profit and social benefit organizations to provide emergency and transitional shelter for the
homeless. The City will also consider the possibility of using Proposition A funds to provide
transportation of the homeless to shelters.
The City will generally support applications for programs and resources from eligible non-profits
and other entities when Federal and/or State funding is limited to such entities. However, when
the City is also an eligible applicant it will assess its needs and priorities to determine if it will be
the lead agency and apply directly for the available funding.
The City will also generally support the efforts of non-profit agencies that apply for funding to
locate transitional, supportive, and permanent housing facilities within the City. For fiscal year
2009-10. the City did not receive any proposals that would work toward meeting this goal.
Homelessness Prevention Activities
The City does not directly provide nor administer any continuum of care programs or homeless
service programs. However, the City's Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Program, Down
Payment Assistance Program, and Section 8 Rental Assistance Program can, in some ways, be
regarded as activities that prevent homelessness. The Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Program
assists low to moderate-income households in maintaining a safe and decent living environment.
The Down Payment Assistance Program assists low income residents with the purchase of their
first home. The Section 8 Rental Assistance Program provides rental assistance. The Housing
Authority of the County of Los Angeles (HACoLA) serves the City of Rosemead and provides
Section 8 assistance to the residents.
As described in the Consolidated Plan, other entities in the City and the County conduct
homelessness prevention activities. Federal, state, local, and private funds can be utilized to
provide rent and utility assistance to help families stay housed. Particularly, agencies receiving
funds through the Emergency Shelter Grant Program and Federal Emergency Management
Agency are likely to conduct homelessness prevention activities. The City will continue to work
with the San Gabriel Valley Homeless Coalition, Los Angeles Service Authority, and other
social service providers towards regional approaches to homelessness.
Certifications of Consistency with the Consolidated Plan
The City's guidelines regarding the Certification of Consistency with the Consolidated Plan for
SuperNOFA applications are in place to ensure that social service providers work towards
regional approaches to homelessness. The guidelines are as follows:
Development Services Business Unit 12 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
2119 - 2111 Annual WIN Pill
1. The request must include the population, subpopulation, and/or special needs
population to be served.
2. A project description, including the services to be provided, the number of clients
served, the operating pro-forma for the project, the location of the project, the
applicant's ability to obtain site control, and the characteristics of surrounding land
uses.
3. Geographic distribution of the propose project near social services, public facilities
and public transportation.
4. The coordination of the project with existing service providers, programs and funding
and the relationship for the project to regional solutions to serve targeted populations.
5. Projects that support progress of the client population towards self-sufficiency and
placement in transitional housing and support services provided by other non-profit
service providers and Los Angeles County. Projects that enable homelessness are not
consistent with the continuum of care, the Plan to end homelessness or with the
City's Consolidated Plan.
For new projects with the City, the governing body will be required to provide formal review and
action prior to the issuance of a certification of consistency. No new project applications were
submitted for the 2009-10 FY.
Gaps Analysis
Table IA. located in the Needs Analysis section, represents the San Gabriel Valley's access to
services compared with numbers of homeless and need on a regional basis. Although,
homelessness within the City of Rosemead is low, it is much higher in Sub Planning Area (SPA
3) of the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), which is the San Gabriel Valley.
Most of this homelessness is concentrated in the eastern portion of the Valley. Homeless rates
among the west valley cities, where Rosemead is located, is generally low. Within the City and
western region, there is a priority need for substance abuse and mental health services, as well as
for transitional housing.
Other Activities for Special Needs Populations
During the 2009-10 fiscal year, the organizations identified below will continue to address
special needs populations through a variety of services. The City intends to support the activities
of these entities as critical partners who help respond to the housing and service needs of low-
income special needs populations. It is also the City's intention to support the efforts of non-
profit agencies that apply for funding to locate housing facilities that serve persons with special
needs within the City. For fiscal year 2009-10, the City did not receive any proposals that would
work toward meeting this goal.
There are several organizations/services that address special needs populations and are offered to
all residents of Rosemead as shown below.

Analysis of impediments to Fair Housing Choice
During the 2009-10 FY, the City hopes to continue making a significant effort to affirmatively
further fair housing and eliminate impediments to fair housing choice that are within its
authority.
On January 5, 1995, with the publication of the Consolidated Submission regulations for
Community Planning and Development programs, significant new program requirements were
established with regard to the long-standing obligation to affirmatively further fair housing.
Localities seeking program funds through the Consolidated Submission procedure are required to
certify that they will engage in fair housing planning; namely: (1) that they will conduct at the
beginning of each five-year cycle an analysis of impediments (AI) to fair housing choice; (2) that
they will carry out actions to overcome the effects of identified impediments; and (3) that they
will maintain records and make available information and reports, including the analysis of
impediments, to document actions undertaken to eliminate identified impediments. The City's
first Al was completed in 1997 by the Fair Housing Council of San Gabriel Valley and the
Center for Choice in Housing. A five-year update to the City's Al was completed in 2000, and
then again in January 2006 by the Southern California Housing Rights Center (HRC).

In order to expand housing opportunities for all groups, the City will continue to make a
significant impact in affirmatively furthering fair housing and eliminating impediments to fair
housing choice by offering housing programs without impediments based on race, color,
religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin. The City will continually increase the
awareness of the availability and benefits of City programs regarding housing choice and
housing assistance through public information to the community. This proves to be a positive
impact on the community by ensuring that the community is aware of the different services
provided by the City of Rosemead.
The City's Al is a comprehensive review of policies, procedures, and practices within Rosemead
that effect the location, availability and accessibility of housing, and the current residential
patterns and conditions related to fair housing choice. Fair housing choice should be understood
as the ability of persons of similar incomes to have available to them the same housing choices,
regardless of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin. An
impediment to fair housing choice is an action, omission, or decision taken because of race,
color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin that restricts housing choices or
the availability of housing choice. It is also any action, omission, or decision that has this kind
of effect. Policies, practices, or procedures that appear neutral on their face, but which operate to
deny or adversely affect the provision of housing to persons (in any particular protected class)
may constitute such impediments.
The 2005-2009 Al established nine (9) potential impediments that are identified below as well as
the activities the City will carry out during the 2009-10 FY to address these issues.
Current Fair Housing Profile
Housing Complaints from the Asian Population in Rosemead
Potential Impediment:
According to the 2000 census the Asian/Pacific Islander population made up 48.9% of
the Rosemead population. But only 15.6% of Rosemead residents assisted by the HRC
from 2003-2005 were Asian/Pacific Islander. The Rosemead Asian population is
reporting housing issues less frequently which may indicate a need for more fair housing
outreach and education to the Asian population in Rosemead.
Actions Proposed to (h,ercome Potential Impediment:
• Submit public service announcements regarding fair housing laws.
• Publish articles on current fair housing topics in the Rosemead Resources
Newsletter and on the City's website.
Housing Discrimination Complaints Based on Familial Status
Potential Impediment:
The highest number of housing discrimination complaints by Rosemead residents have
been based on familial status. This may indicate a need for more education of landlords
on families with children and fair housing.
Development Services Business Unit 19 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
2009 - 2010 Annual Man Plan
Actions Proposed to Overcome Potential Impediment.
• Publish articles on current fair housing topics in the Rosemead Resources
Newsletter and on the City's website.
• Distribute literature to Rosemead property owner and managers that explain
the fair housing law that protects people with children under 18.
Audit Testing
The HRC conducted 20 phone tests to measure levels of housing discrimination in the City of
Rosemead. Of this number, 10 were used to measure discrimination against people with
disabilities and 10 were used to measure familial status discrimination (presence of children
under 18).
Disability Discrimination
Potential Impediment:
The HRC found that 50% of the disability phone tests showed evidence of discrimination
against people with disabilities. Some examples of discrimination by property
owners/mangers include not allowing service/guide dogs, requiring a "pet deposit" for
service/guide dogs and discriminatory statements to discourage people with disabilities
from applying for an available unit. These tests may indicate intentional discrimination
against people with disabilities. They may also indicate a lack of awareness of the fair
housing laws that protect people with disabilities from housing discrimination.
Actions Proposed to Overcome Potential Impediment:
• Conduct workshops for Rosemead property owners and managers that focus
specifically on the disability provisions of the fair housing law.
• Develop a brochure/newsletter on discrimination against people with
disabilities to distribute to Rosemead property owners and managers.
• Build collaborations with disability rights advocates to educate their clients on
their right to equal housing opportunity.
Familial Status Discrimination
Potential Impediment:
The HRC found that 40% of the familial status phone tests showed evidence of
discrimination against people with children under the age of 18. These tests showed that
property owners/managers gave higher security deposits, steering to first floor units, and
flat-out denials of housing to people with children. Similar to the disability tests, this
could indicate intentional discrimination against people with children under 18. They
may also indicate a lack of awareness of the fair housing laws that protect people from
being discriminated against because they have children in the household that are under
18.
Actions Proposed to Overcome Potential Impediment:
• Distribute literature to Rosemead property owner and managers that explain
the fair housing law that protects people with children under 18.
• Develop a brochure/newsletter on discrimination against people with children
under 18 to distribute to Rosemead property owners and managers.
Development Services Business Unit 20 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
• Build collaboration with Rosemead schools to distribute fair housing
information to parents.
Marital Status Discrimination
Potential Impediment:
The HRC found that 40% of the phone tests showed evidence of discrimination against
people based on their marital status. The discrimination took the form of occupancy
limits that may be overly restrictive and differential treatment of married and unmarried
couples in the amount of the credit check fee. Interesting to note is that the HRC was not
testing for marital status discrimination.
Actions Proposed to Overcome Potential Impediment:
• Develop a brochure/newsletter that explains the fair housing law that protects
people from discrimination based on marital status.
Community Survey
The HRC also conducted a survey of 32 Rosemead residents. The participants of the survey
were individuals who are currently residents of the City of Rosemead. The respondents were
randomly chosen from the Yahoo! Yellow Pages. The goal of the survey was to measure
awareness of the fair housing laws and the level of housing discrimination experienced by
Rosemead residents.
Awareness of the Fair Housing Laws
Potential Impediment:
The survey showed that 47% of respondents had no knowledge of the fair housing laws
and 34% had very little knowledge of the fair housing laws. According to the 2000
census, the population of Rosemead is 53,505. From July 1, 2000 to February 28, 2005
the Housing Rights Center assisted 955 Rosemead residents, which represents 1.8% of
the total population. The low level of awareness of the fair housing law may indicate the
need for increased education and outreach activities in Rosemead.
Actions Proposed to Overcome Potential Impediment:
• Conduct a fair housing awareness campaign each year on a specific area of the
fair housing law (familial status, disability, sexual harassment, etc.).
• Increase literature distribution within the City.
• Fanner with social service agencies that serve Rosemead residents to
coordinate fair housing presentations for their clients.
Rosemead Zoning Ordinance
HRC reviewed provisions of the Rosemead Municipal Code ("RMC"), specifically Title 15
(Building and Constriction) and Title 17 (Zoning), for compliance with state and federal fair
housing laws.
Development Services Business Unit 21 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead 1=Y 2009-2010
Overly Restrictive Definition of Family
Potential Impediment:
Section 17.04.020 of the Rosemead Zoning Code has an overly restrictive definition of
family. This definition restricts the housing choices of individuals with disabilities
because it places numerical limits on unrelated person. The definition of "family" must
emphasize the functioning of the members as a cohesive household and cannot
distinguish between related and unrelated persons.
Actions Proposed to Overcome Potential Impediment:
• Prepare a new definition of family and amend the zoning code accordingly.
Definitions of Bachelor Apartment
Potential Impediment:
Section 17.04.020 of the Rosemead Zoning Code defines a bachelor apartment as "[A]n
apartment of dwelling unit in a multiple dwelling or apartment house, occupied or
suitable for occupancy as a residence for one person." This occupancy limit could lead
property owners to discriminate against families with children or couples in violation of
federal and state fair housing laws.
Actions Proposed to Overcome Potential Impediment:
• Remove the definition of a bachelor apartment from the zoning code.
Reasonable Accommodations
Potential Impediment:
Pursuant to fair housing laws and also the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"), the
City of Rosemead should provide for reasonable accommodations for persons with
disabilities.
Actions Proposed to Overcome Potential Impediment:
• Prepare a notation for the off-street parking and nuisance abatement
ordinances that explains that accommodations are available to people with
disabilities.
• Prepare an accommodation application procedure
The analysis of impediments to fair housing choice in any community is a delicate and tedious
process. The City recognizes the effect that discrimination has in limiting housing choice and
equal opportunity in renting, selling, and financing housing. During the 2009-10 FY, the City
will continue to address the potential impediments identified in the City's Al. By addressing
these issues, the City hopes to take incremental steps toward overcoming and eliminating all the
impediments identified in the City's Al.
By contracting with a Fair Housing Organization to implement a Fair Housing Program within
Rosemead during the 2009-10 FY, the City hopes to provide an extensive and comprehensive
community education program to inform the community about fair housing laws. This will
allow the City to make a significant impact in affirmatively furthering the goal of fair housing
choice.
Development Services Business Unit 22 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
2009 - 2010 Anneal AtUen Plan
During the 2009-10 FY, the City will also make a significant impact in affirmatively furthering
fair housing and eliminating impediments to fair housing choice by offering housing programs
without impediments based on race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national
origin. The City continually increases the awareness of the availability and benefits of City
programs regarding housing choice and housing assistance through public information to the
community. This information is distributed to the community in a number of ways, including
notices placed in newspapers and on the City's newsletter. This proves to be a positive impact
on the community by ensuring that the community is aware of the different services provided by
the City of Rosemead.
As you can see, the City of Rosemead plans to continue making a significant effort toward
affirmatively furthering fair housing and eliminate impediments to fair housing choice that are
within its authority during the period of July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010.
The City has an ongoing commitment to preventing, reducing, and ultimately eliminating
housing discrimination and other barriers related to equal opportunity in housing choice.
Other Actions - 91.2200
The City of Rosemead plans to undertake additional actions throughout 2009-2010 to further
address obstacles to meeting underserved needs, fostering and maintaining affordable housing,
reducing the number of poverty level families, and removing barriers to affordable housing.
Actions to Address Obstacles to Meeting Underserved Needs
The City of Rosemead faces a number of potential obstacles in meeting affordable housing and
community development needs and underserved needs through the CDBG and HOME program
which includes lack of affordable land for housing development, funding constraints to address
community development needs, and continued reductions for CDBG, HOME, and other federal
funding sources in each fiscal year.
The City will continue to look for non-traditional ways to develop affordable housing units and
meet community development needs; work to combine funding sources and leverage private
funds to develop affordable housing; and, to work with the federal government to ensure that
sufficient funding continues in order to meet needs.
Foster and Maintain Decent Affordable Standard Housing
The City of Rosemead will foster and maintain affordable rental and owner-occupied housing
through the initiatives identified below. Successful implementation of these efforts relies on the
collaborative effort of many community partners including public agencies, government, housing
developers, non-profit agencies, and neighborhoods. The City will use its own City newsletter,
as well as community events to promote these services, and to promote its housing and
community service programs:

Removing Barriers to Affordable Housing
The City of Rosemead is committed to addressing the negative effects of public policies over
which it has control. In order to promote integration and prevent low-income concentrations, the
City has designed its affordable housing programs to be available Citywide. This priority also
serves to make sure that the City does not have any policies, rules, or regulations that would lead
to minority or racial concentrations.
Over the years, Rosemead has demonstrated a willingness to encourage housing development of
all types. It has approved several zone changes and Code amendments to allow for development
of a variety of housing types, including those that benefit low and moderate-income people. It
also makes an effort to fast-track projects and process permits in a timely manner. The City
intends to maintain its current posture of openness and willingness to entertain new ideas and
eliminate any regulatory barriers under its control in the provision of a variety of housing to meet
the needs of all income groups.
During the next year the City will continue to work cooperatively within existing legislatively
mandated constraints and work to develop or encourage public policies that foster further
affordable housing development and assistance.
Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction
As of FY 2001-02, the City of Rosemead began implementing the new HUD Lead Based Paint
Regulations (Title X), which requires all federally assisted housing programs, including
rehabilitation, homeownership, and tenant-based subsidy systems, to address lead hazards.
The City will continue its program of education and eradication of lead-based paint through the
operation of its Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Programs and Down Payment Assistance Loan
Program. These two programs provided assistance to low-income homeowners; the target
groups most likely to be living in older housing with lead-based paint.
The City has procured the service of a State Certified Lead Consultant to provide the following:
• Lead-based paint and soil inspection
• Lead-based paint risk assessment
• Lead-based paint hazard reduction monitoring
• Post-hazard redaction clearance test.
Development Services Business Unit 25 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
Under the Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Programs, the City will continue to provide each owner
who participates with both oral and written information regarding the dangers of lead-based paint
and what to do about it. Owners of properties constructed prior to 1978 will be required to meet
certain lead-based paint requirements prior to being assisted. These requirements include the
following:
• Distribution of lead-based paint notification pamphlets to all households occupying
assisted units.
• Inspection of all properties for defective paint surfaces.
• Abatement of all defective paint surfaces that are identified at the time of the
inspection.
Through the Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Programs, financial assistance will be provided to
eradicate the problem. Full abatement will be undertaken in all rehabilitation projects over
$25,000. It is the responsibility of the City's Grants Specialist to ensure that properties
constructed prior to 1978 meet the lead-based paint requirements and any abatement of defective
paint surfaces are completed by contractors certified by the State of California Department of
Health Services. A copy of the contractor's certification is kept on file.
The Down Payment Assistance Loan Program will also provide participants with oral and
written information regarding the dangers of lead-based paint. The selected units will undergo a
Housing Quality Standards (HQS) inspection that checks for danger of lead-based paint and will
require any peeling, cracking, flaking, paint and/or chewable surfaces to be properly treated. The
City personnel responsible for conducting the visual inspection of the units for HQS compliance
have completed the Visual Assessment Course and received the proper course completion
certification.
In addition, the City requires clearance for all properties that fail an HQS inspection due to
chipping, peeling. cracking surfaces greater than 2 sq. ft. on the interior and 20 sq. ft. on the
exterior of the unit or in common areas. A risk assessment will be required to be completed by a
certified risk assessor whenever the City is notified that a child with an environmental
intervention blood lead level (EIB) plans to live in a unit under the Down Payment Assistance
Loan Program.
Anti-Poverty Strategy
The City has established goals and policies designed to improve the local economy and reduce
the level of poverty within the community. The strategy is outlined in the following sections.
Housing and Community Development
• Housing Authority County of Los Angeles County - The Housing Authority County of
Los Angeles will continue to provide rental assistance to the residents of Rosemead
through the Federal Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program. This program helps to
provide extremely low and low-income tenants with affordable housing and assistance in
becoming self-sufficient.
Development Services Business Unit 26 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
• Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Programs - The City will use a portion of its
CDBG/HOME funds to assist those homeowners with income below the poverty level in
making needed rehabilitation improvements. The various programs the City will offer
are as follows:
- Loan Program - The City provides low interest (0 to 3%) deferred payment
loans to seniors, persons with a disability and families of low and moderate
income who own and occupy their homes and need financial assistance to
make repairs and improvements. The loan is secured by the Deed of Trust
and payment is deferred until the sale, transfer of ownership, refinancing of
the home, or 30 years from the date shown on the signed Deed of Trust and
Promissory Note. Interest is calculated at 0% for senior citizens (62 years
and older) and handicapped/disabled citizens and 3% simple interest rate for
all others based on the principal owed. These loans may be used for both
exterior and interior property improvements. All improvements must be
approved by the City of Rosemead's Development Services Business Unit
prior to the work being done. All improvements must be done by a
contractor who is properly licensed through the State of California and the
City of Rosemead.
- Grants Program - Grants are available to senior citizens (62 years or older)
and disabled citizens for up to $10,000, at no cost to the homeowner, for
repairs related to interior and exterior code deficiencies and general home
improvements.
Emergency Grant Program - Emergency grants are available to all eligible
income qualified applicants. The maximum emergency grant is $2,000 for
corrections to emergency code deficiencies that constitute an immediate
health-safety issue. Owner occupants are eligible for one (1) emergency
grant.
- Rebate Program - Rebates are available to income eligible homeowners, for
correction of code deficiencies and general home improvements to the
exterior of the house. Fifty percent (50%) rebates up to $15,000 may be
obtained from the City after the homeowner satisfactorily completed the
work and payments to contractors. Owner-occupied are eligible for one (1)
rebate.
• Public Services - The City will continue to provide public services (i.e. homeless
prevention and counseling programs, substance abuse, after-school tutoring programs,
family counseling services, etc.).
• Dial-A-Ride - Free transportation service (Dial-A-Ride) is provided to senior
residents as well as disabled residents. The program provides curb-to-curb
transportation services for seniors, age 60 and older, and for people who have
disabilities who are residents of Rosemead. Transportation is available to any
destination in Rosemead for any type of trip including medical appointments,
educational/recreational activities, shopping, and visits to friends and family.
Transportation is also available, at no cost, for travel outside the City, a distance
of five miles from City Hall, for medical or social service appointments. The City
also offers subsidized bus fare for the seniors through a contract with the
Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA).
Development Services Business Unit 27 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
Economic Development
The City has partnered and supported activities that promote economic development including
the following programs:
• Commercial Rehabilitation Program and Economic Development Loan Program -
The Redevelopment Agency will provide, as funds are available, economic development
loans and rebates to business owners for fagade improvements to buildings located within
one of the City's Redevelopment Project Areas.
• Business Attraction/Retention Program - The Redevelopment Agency will assist in
attracting new businesses to the City as well as retaining the current businesses.
Low Income Housing Tax Credit Coordination (LIHTC)
Currently, the City uses Redevelopment Agency Low and Moderate Tax Increment funds,
CDBG funds, and HOME funds for affordable housing development. The City has participated
in one tax credit development project. The City has a HOME-funded development fund. As part
of that, there may be additional opportunities to use the Low Income Housing Tax Credit funds.
In order to coordinate and assess the need of tax credits for the development of a housing project,
the Housing Division staff will work with developers and non-profit agency's pro forma, serve
as part of the team developing tax credit financing and will calculate the financing gap, along
with the maximum and minimum subsidies. This will ensure that the City's HOME coordination
will meet HOME requirements for the LIHTC program.
Institutional Structure
The implementation of the Action Plan is highly dependent upon the support and cooperation of
numerous levels of government and the private sector, including for-profit and non-profit
organizations. The City of Rosemead is governed by a five-member City Council. The City
Council reviews. holds hearings, approves the funding priorities, and approves the submission of
the Action Plan to HUD.
The City of Rosemead's Development Services Business Unit is the lead agency in the
coordination of the Action Plan. It coordinates the redevelopment and economic activities of the
City, develops and implements the programs that rehabilitate and preserve the neighborhoods in
the City, develops and rehabilitates affordable housing, and provides rental assistance to the very
low-income and special-needs segments of the City's population. As a lead agency, it will be
responsible for coordinating with the agencies and organizations listed in Appendix B.
While the Development Services Business Unit has the major responsibility for the Action Plan
budgeting, project formulation, and program implementation, other City departments,
government agencies, social service agencies, and Rosemead residents play an important role as
shown below. There are several inter-departmental programs, primarily in the area of
neighborhood quality of life that are composed of a wide variety of City agencies. All are
funded through the CDBG or HOME as a funding source; but in many cases, departmental funds
and other funding augment and leverage Action Plan Resources.
• City of Rosemead's Development Services Business Unit
• City of Rosemead's Department of Finance
• City of Rosemead's Department of Recreation and Community Services
• City of Rosemead's Department of Public Works

The structure of the CDBG and HOME program is decentralized. While the Development
Services Business Unit does administer several program activities, including several housing
rehabilitation programs, other project activities are administered by sponsoring departments and
City-related agencies. Guidelines for expenditure of CDBG and HOME funds are provided as
needed or changes in the programs occur. Periodically, the Development Services Business Unit
provides departments and City-related agencies with training in HUD grant regulations.
There are many organizations that actively collaborate in the areas of housing, homeless
services, and community and economic development, and coordinate closely in both the
preparation and implementation of the Action Plan.
The City, for its part, will promote and encourage fair housing, housing assistance, and single-
family home rehabilitation through:
• Continued utilization of the services of a fair housing organization to promote,
educate and enforce fair housing in the community.
• Continued working with the Housing Authority County of Los Angeles to implement
its Section 8 Rental Assistance Program for the residents of Rosemead.
• Continued use of CDBG, HOME, Redevelopment and State funds to assist low and
very low-income homeowners in rehabilitating their homes and in eliminating
substandard conditions. The City will continue to encourage the different
rehabilitation programs through the use of advertising in Rosemead Resources.
• Continued use of the Salvation Army and YWCA-Wings to provide shelter services
for the citizens of Rosemead as needed.
One of the biggest challenges facing the City is the lack of or ever-decreasing amount of funds
available in maintaining and furthering housing and community development goals.
A related challenge is the need for better coordination and cooperation between the City and
social service and health providers. For homeless activities, a seamless approach to provision of
transitional and permanent housing services requires that such providers be actively involved in
each facet of the Continuum of Care. However, other housing activities, such as rehabilitation,
demolition of abandoned or hazardous units, acquisition of sites for potential single family and
multifamily affordable housing, home ownership assistance, and new construction need to be
integrated within the social service and health provider community as well.
The key to a strong institutional structure is the ability to develop and share data on the progress
and status of beneficiaries through the development of integrated information systems. There are
now several data information systems in place that, to various degrees, track the progress of a
Development Services Business Unit 29 Annual Action Plan
City of Rosemead FY 2009-2010
2009 - 2010 Annual Action Plan
variety of beneficiaries from initial intake, through provision of services, and to completion of
participation. For example, the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) is
committing itself to a five-year developmental plan for the Homeless Management Information
System (HMIS). A primary goal is to integrate the HMIS with other databases in sharing of
commonly needed information.
Institutions playing a major role in delivery of community development programs often have
different mandates, and consequently different priorities and strategies to achieve them. These
mandates are most often imposed by Congress, and reflected through the regulations of federal
funding agencies. In several cases, goals may overlap or conflict.
A major obstacle to delivery of services through a variety of institutions is the continuing trend
in reduction of federal and state funds for a variety of needed programs. In addition, foundation
giving is declining.
While the primary actors in the Action Plan process is the City Council, and the Development
Services Business Unit, there are a significant number of City agencies and departments that
oversee a wide variety of grants and programs that provide services to low and moderate-income
City residents, and play an important role in implementing the Action Plan as mentioned above.
Coordination Efforts
The City will carry out this Action Plan through various organizations including a number of
social service agencies funded through CDBG grant funds (the Family Counseling Services,
Morrison Health Care - Senior Nutrition Provider, People for People, Rosemead High School,
Rosemead School District, and Southern California Housing Rights). In addition, various City
departments will work together to achieve the goals of this Action Plan, including the Public
Safety Department (Code Enforcement), the Housing Services Division (Owner-Occupied
Rehabilitation Loan Programs), and the Public Works Department (Targeted Public Works
Project).
The City also works with the State, other local governments (County of Los Angeles), private
industry construction contractors, non-profit organizations and social service providers to
provide community, housing, and social service programs and projects.
The City is committed to extend and strengthen partnerships among all levels of government and
the private sector, including for-profit and non-profit organizations.
The means of cooperation and coordination with these various groups will continue to enhance
the services provided to the residents of our City.
Public Housing Improvements and Resident Initiatives
There are no public housing developments in the City. Consequently, this section does not
apply.

HOME Provisions
Leveraging and Match - The City is a 100% HOME match reduction community. Therefore,
there is no match requirement for the City of Rosemead.
Recapture - As stated in the Consolidated Plan, HOME regulation 24 CFR 92.254, Section
(B)(ii) requires that the participating jurisdiction "recoups all or a portion of the HOME
assistance to the homebuyers if the housing does not continue to be the principal resident of the
family for the duration for the period of affordability." In accordance with the requirement, the
City of Rosemead has adopted the policy of repayment of HOME funds lent. If the loan is
refinanced or the home is sold during the 15-year affordability period, the City will charge an
interest rate penalty. This interest rate penalty declines over the first 10 years of the loan. The
principal of HOME funds are always repaid. In addition, if the home is sold before the end of
the 15-year affordability period, then an equity share is required.
Other Forms of Investment - The City of Rosemead does not use atypical loans or grant
instruments of non-conforming loan guarantees.

Monitoring Standards and Procedures - 91.230
The City understands that all efforts using federal, state, and local resources to carry out its
Action Plan must be conducted in accordance with established laws, regulations, and sound
management and accounting practices. The following procedures have been established for
monitoring activities:
• Ongoing, internal reviews of progress reports and expenditures.
• Regular, internal meetings to coordinate staff efforts in regard to performance and
compliance.
• Periodic reports to appropriate City officials and other stakeholders.

~al Minority / Women's Business Outreach - 91.230
In addition to prohibiting discrimination, fair housing, and equal opportunity, laws require
recipients of federal housing funds to be proactive in encouraging participation in any projects or
programs funded through federal sources. They must affirmatively market housing,
employment, and contracting opportunities to minorities, women, and low-income residents and
businesses.
The City has effectively promoted affirmative marketing through the following actions:
• Use of the fair housing logo or equal opportunity language in marketing materials,
posters on office walls, and referrals to a fair housing agency;
• Use of funding agreements to require subrecipient's to comply with requirements
relating to equal employment opportunities;
• Use of non-English language newspapers (as needed), informing service agencies
about projects, and translators at public meetings;
Furthermore, the City maintains the following marketing requirements and procedures:
• Methods of informing the public, owners, and potential tenants about federal fair
housing laws and the City's affirmative marketing policy.
• Procedures to be used to inform and solicit applications from the persons in the
housing market area who are not likely to apply for housing without special outreach.
• Records that will be kept describing actions taken by the City and subrecipients in
affirmatively marketing programs and projects.
For employment and other economic development opportunities generated by certain HUD
financial assistance, the City shall, to the greatest extent feasible and in conformance with
existing Federal, State, and local law and regulations, be directed to low and very-low income
persons, particularly those who are recipients of government assistance for housing, and to
building contractors which provide economic opportunity to low and very-low income persons as
required under Section 3.
In addition, the City maintains the following employment and contracting requirements:
• Adoption of a formal policy concerning nondiscrimination in employment, and a
designated department to oversee compliance;
• Procedures in notifying minority and female recruitment sources for Request for
Proposals on City projects;
• Placement of minority and women-owned businesses (MBE/WBEs) on solicitation
lists; and
• Use of services and assistance of the Small Business Administration and Minority
Business Development Agency to encourage MBE/WBD participation in City
projects.

previous contracts or subcontracts subject to the equal opportunity clause, and the filing of
required reports.

funds, it certifies that it has developed its Action Plan so as to give maximum feasible
priority to activities which benefit low and moderate income families or aid in the
prevention or elimination of slums or blight. The Action Plan may also include activities
which the grantee certifies are designed to meet other community development needs
having a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate
threat to the health or welfare of the community, and other financial resources are not
available;

from other revenue sources, an assessment or charge may be made against the property
with respect to the public improvements financed by a source other than CDBG funds.
The jurisdiction will not attempt to recover any capital costs of public improvements
assisted with CDBG funds, including Section 108, unless CDBG funds are used to pay the
proportion of fee or assessment attributable to the capital costs of public improvements
financed form other revenue sources. In this case, an assessment or charge may be made
against the property with respect to the public improvements financed by a source other
than CDBG funds. Also, in the case of properties owned and occupied by moderate-
income (not low-income) families, an assessment or charge may be made against the
property for public improvements financed by a source other than CDBG funds if the
jurisdiction certifies that it lacks CDBG funds to cover the assessment.
Excessive Force It has adopted and is enforcing:
1. A policy prohibiting the use of excessive force by law enforcement agencies within its
jurisdiction against any individuals engaged in non-violent civil rights demonstrations, and
2. A policy of enforcing applicable State and local laws against physically barring entrance to
or exit from a facility or location which is the subject of such non-violent civil rights
demonstrations within its jurisdiction;
Compliance With Anti-discrimination laws The grant will be conducted and administered in
conformity with title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 USC 2004d), the Fair Housing Act
(42 USC 3601-3619), and implementing regulations.

minimize displacement of persons as
a result of CDBG funded activities by
concentrating the expenditure of these
funds on activities that:
1. Involve housing rehabilitation

projects undertaken with CDBG funds
could result in displacement, the City
of Rosemead has developed a plan to
assist persons actually displaced by
CDBG activities. This plan requires
that the City provide replacement
housing and relocation assistance and
benefits in conformance with Section
104(d) of the Housing and Community
Development Act of 1974, as amended,
and the Uniform Relocation
Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, as
amended. A copy of the plan is

In addition, pursuant to Section 508
of the Act, the City of Rosemead has
developed and is following a detailed

APPENDIX G
CITY OF ROSEMEAD
CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN
(For all Federally Funded Grant Programs)
INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to Section 104(a)(3) of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 as
amended, the City of Rosemead first adopted this Citizen Participation Plan in June of 1978
(previously revised in 1979, 1988, and 1991). By doing so, the City acknowledges the integral
role of citizen participation in the process of planning and development, and the execution of the
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, and all other Federally Funded Grant
Programs.
This document outlines basic tenets of the citizen participation regulations and will remain in
effect throughout the implementation of the City's entitlement awards from the federal
government, or until these funds are completely exhausted.
The following details Rosemead's Citizen Participation Plan:
POLICY STATEMENT
It is the policy of the City of Rosemead to provide for full involvement by the community and its
residents in the planning, development, implementation and evaluation of programs funded
under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, including the
Community Development Grant (CDBG) Program and HOME Investment Partnership Act
(HOME).
CDBG is a federal entitlement grant that allows entitlement jurisdictions to undertake a variety
of housing and community development programming for persons who are primarily low to
moderate income. The HOME program provides funding for a variety of affordable housing
development and assistance.
This Citizen Participation Plan sets forth the procedures and guidelines to be implemented by the
City to provide for the continuing participation by the citizens of Rosemead. The City
acknowledges the need for, and the role, of citizen involvement, but also recognizes that the final
determination and responsibility for policy development rests with the City Council.
This plan may be amended from time to time and shall remain in effect until superseded by a
new plan or until the City no longer participates in programs that require such a plan. Citizen
Participation does not restrict the responsibility or the authority of the City for the development
execution of its Consolidated Plan and Annual Plan.
