STAFF REPORT
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR X COUNCIL
FROM: BEN KIM, CITY MANAGER
DATE: MARCH 10, 2026
SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING TO ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 2026-11,
AUTHORIZING AN AMENDMENT TO THE CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
PERMANENT LOCAL HOUSING ALLOCATION (PLHA) PROGRAM
FIVE-YEAR PLAN
SUMMARY
In 2022, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) awarded the
City $1,983,626 in PLHA funds for housing -related projects and programs that assist in addressing
the unmet housing needs of the City. As part of the process, the City adopted a PLHA Program
Five -Year Plan, which outlined the City's strategy to carry out activities that will increase the
affordable housing supply. During that time, the City intended to allocate funds for new
homeownership units. To date, the funds have not been expended and although the amendment
period for the 2019, 2020, and 2021 PLHA allocations have expired, HCD is authorizing the City
a one-time exception to amend the Five -Year Plan.
The City's adopted PLHA Program Five -Year Plan established how the 2019 through 2023
allocations would be used in accordance with PLHA program requirements. To ensure the City
expends the funds to increase the supply of affordable housing in the City, the PLHA funds must
be reassigned to other eligible activities.
The HCD PLHA Guidelines provide ten eligible activities that a City may elect for their five-year
plan. After reviewing the list of eligible activities, staff is proposing to reallocate the funds to the
following:
Activity 2 - Assist with development of the Marshall/Hart Projects. The Marshall Hart
Projects will consist of a new residential development with for -sale residential units, some
of which would be offered at an affordable housing cost to households with incomes at or
below 150 percent of the Area Median Income.
AGENDA ITEM 3.11
City Council Meeting
March 10, 2026
Page 2 of 3
2, Activity 9 - Support Homeownership Assistance Program, including down payment
assistance. The Homeownership Assistance Program will provide financial assistance to
qualified homebuyers with household incomes at or below 150 percent of the Area Median
Income in the form of a zero -interest, deferred loan with no monthly payments, which may
be used to cover a portion of the down payment and eligible closing costs associated with
the purchase of a primary residence.
These activities are eligible under the PLHA program and align with the City's current housing
priorities, including the City's Housing Element. The amendment updates the allocation of funds
to reflect current project feasibility and implementation timing.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. Conduct the Public Hearing and take any public comments;
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2026-11 (Attachment "A") authorizing the amendment to the PLHA
Program Five -Year Plan ("Attachment B"); and
3. Authorize the Mayor or her designee to execute a Standard Agreement, any amendments,
and all other related program documents with HCD PLHA Program.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no impact to the City's General Fund. Administrative costs associated with the program
implementation will be funded using the allowable administrative portion of the PLHA grant
consistent with HCD's program guidelines. Any required budget amendments related to this item
will be incorporated into the Mid -Year Budget process in March.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
This agenda item does not constitute a project under the California Environmental Quality Act
("CEQA"), and it can be seen with certainty that it will have no impact on the environment. As
such, this matter is exempt under CEQA.
STRATEGIC PLAN IMPACT
The amendment aligns with the City's Strategic Plan Mission of "Rosemead provides quality
programs, services, and support that builds community, increases opportunity, and makes
Rosemead a great place to live, work, and play."
