Executive Summary
ES-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
Introduction
The Consolidated Plan serves as a planning document meeting the federal government statutory
requirements in 24 CFR 91.200-91.230, with revisions for preparing a Consolidated Plan and guiding the
use of CDBG, HOME, HOPWA, and ESG funding based on applications to the U.S. Department of HUD.
The major sections of the Consolidated Plan include a Housing Market Analysis, Housing and Homeless
Needs Assessment, 5-year Strategic Plan, a 1-year Action Plan, and Consultation and Citizen
Participation, with accompanying documentation relating to public comment. The Strategic Plan
addresses specific needs that were identified in the data analysis, with specific goals and program
targets for each category designated for funding. The Action Plan is a subset of the Strategic Plan,
addressing funding options for the next fiscal year. The Consolidated Plan can be used by organizations
in the community as a guide for identifying activities through which they can help the jurisdiction reach
their housing and community development goals. The Consolidated Plan also serves as the baseline for
measuring program effectiveness, as reported in the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation
Report (CAPER) required by HUD for each fiscal year's funding allocation.
Incorporated into the Consolidated Plan are an analysis of the local housing market and a review of
housing and homeless needs in Lubbock as a means of defining the current environment in which
federal funding is being used. The Consolidated Plan provides a strategic plan for meeting priority needs
that were identified through the community participation process. The analytical parts of the document
draw from the 2005-2009 and the 2008-2012 American Community Surveys and 2005 CHAS data
provided by HUD. Other data sources include the 2010 U.S. Census and other information gathered
locally, including the Lubbock Continuum of Care and a survey of citizens that was used to assist in
prioritizing needs. The survey was available on the City's website and was distributed at community
meetings. Public housing information was provided by the Lubbock Housing Authority.
2. Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan Needs Assessment
Overview
This Consolidated Plan contains a range of goals, objectives, and outcomes formulated to address needs
identified for homelessness, other special needs, affordable housing, non -housing community
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
development, barriers to affordable housing, lead -based paint hazards, institutional structure, and
coordination. These objectives include:
• Continue to collaborate with homeless providers to supply a continuum of services.
• Support services aimed at the prevention and elimination of homelessness and Rapid Re-
housing.
• Improve the condition of housing for low-income homeowners.
• Increase the viability of potential homeownership opportunities.
• Improve the condition of housing for low-income renters and home owners through regulatory
programs.
• Support improvement of infrastructure and public facilities in CDBG targeted areas in Lubbock.
• Expand business opportunities by supporting economic development projects through Section
108 Program funding.
• Address community needs through community -based public service programs.
These goals are supported by a collection of associated objectives and performance goals. These
objectives seek to work toward meeting the goals stated, addressing the need for more affordable
housing, housing rehabilitation, public facilities and infrastructure improvements, and social services.
Specifics can be found in the Strategic Plan and Annual Action Plan.
3. Evaluation of past performance
The City of Lubbock has a long history of successful programs funded through the Community
Development Block Grant and HOME Investment Partnership Program. Of particular importance to the
health of the city have been programs that address the condition of the housing stock. The City has
successfully funded housing rehabilitation activities targeting lower income and elderly households
unable to properly maintain their homes. The City also operates a successful program that provided
downpayment and mortgage assistance to new homebuyers. The City has worked actively with local
homeless services providers to expand both the stock of units/beds available to homeless persons and
services aimed at helping those persons find employment, housing, health care services, and
educational opportunities. Details of past performance can be found in the City's Consolidated Annual
Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER).
4. Summary of citizen participation process and consultation process
The 2014-2018 Citizen Participation Plan (CPP) was adopted for development of the 2014-2018
Consolidated Plan. The CPP provides details for public notice for all meetings and the various stages of
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
Consolidated Plan development, public hearings before the citizens of Lubbock and City Council,
accommodations for persons with disabilities, and the conduct of public review of draft documents.
In addition to public hearings as a means of receiving comment from the public in front of the Mayor
and City Council, City staff held community meetings to provide citizens with information concerning the
availability of Community Development Block Grant, HOME, and Emergency Solutions Grant funds and
to incorporate their comments into the planning process. These included five technical assistance
workshops which were held during the day or evening at community centers and one meeting held at
City Hall for housing, homeless, and disability service providers. A survey to establish a community
involvement process for prioritizing needs was distributed among workshop attendees and other
interested individuals and was also posted on the City's website for enumeration online. Additional
interviews were conducted with representatives of the housing and banking industry, non-profit
organizations, and the community to further explore community needs and concerns.
5. Summary of public comments
No comments were received in the public review process, therefore none were rejected for any reason.
6. Summary of comments or views not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them
No public comments were received during the public review period.
7. Summary
This document was developed through a process that included a significant community engagement
component, which included focus groups, workshops, and a public review period. No comments were
received from the public during the public review period, which is indicative of the extent to which
community involvement was incorporated into the development of the Consolidated Plan.

development activities. The CHDO system provides a forum for assisting these agencies grow and meet
their own targeted clientele. The City also works closely with the Housing Authority of Lubbock which
organizes resources from the federal government to address the housing needs of the City's lowest
income households. Through the Continuum of Care process, the City maintains relationships with
mental health providers, homeless shelter and services providers, and other governmental agencies
with specific responsibilities for homeless individuals and families. The City also participates in a variety
of other coalitions that seek to address other issues that relate to housing and service needs.

1. Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation
Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal -setting
The Citizen Participation Plan provides policies and procedures that assure that the public has adequate notice and opportunities to provide
input into the development of the Consolidated Plan and the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice. Generally, it provides for
appropriate notice prior to public meetings, accommodations for persons with disabilities, and specification of the number of meetings to be
held. Conforming to the provisions of the Citizen Participation Plan, three Al focus group meetings were held on August 27, 2013 at City of
Lubbock Municipal Building, 1626 13th Street, Lubbock, Texas 79401 and three Consolidated Plan Forums were held on December 3, 2013 at the
same location. The Public Hearing for City Council is scheduled for XXXXXX, with a second hearing on XXXXXX. The 30 day Public Comment Period
is scheduled for July 1 thru July 31, 2014. A community survey was also distributed at the forums and focus group meetings and posted on the
City's website for completion, tabulation, and consideration in the development of priorities relating to community needs. The Citizen
Participation Plan is attached as an appendix.

Needs Assessment
NA-05 Overview
Needs Assessment Overview
The needs assessment looks at a variety of housing, homeless, community development, and non -
homeless special needs through an examination of census and CHAS data, which was created by the U.S.
Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. These data qualtify
housing problems, such as overcrowding and cost burden, and measure the magnitude of special needs
populations, such as the elderly, frail elderly, and persons with HIV/AIDS. As shown in the following
analysis, cost burden (paying more than 30 percent of household income on housing expenses) and
extreme cost burden (paying more than 50 percent of household income on housing expenses) has a
considerable impact on households in Lubbock, particularly lower income households. Measures of
housing condition (lack of complete kitchen or plumbing facilities) doesn't provide a very reliable
measure of condition, though it represents the best, easily accessible data on the topic. Other needs are
represented through public housing wait lists and various census and state data sources.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
NA-10 Housing Needs Assessment - 24 CFR 91.205 (a,b,c)
Summary of Housing Needs
The following data provide an analysis of housing problems in Lubbock, including lack of complete
plumbing or kitchen facilities, overcrowding (1.01 to 1.5 persons per room), severe overcrowding (more
than 1.5 persons per room), cost burden (paying more than 30% of household income on housing
expenses), and severe cost burden (paying more than 50% of household income on housing expenses.
By far, the most common housing need related to cost burden, hitting lower income households
particularly hard, with over 67 percent of renter households and 62 percent of owner households
earning less than 30% of the area median income (AMI) paying more than 50% of their income on
housing expenses. For rental households, severe cost burden is the most common housing problem
with 36 percent of all renter households earning below 100% of the AMI paying more than 50% of their
income on housing expenses, while cost burden is the most common for owner households where 21.6
percent of all owner households earning below 100% of the AMI paying more than 30% of their income
on housing expenses, with severe cost burden not far behind with 21.5 percent paying more than 50%
of their income on housing expenses. The next most pressing housing problem in Lubbock is
overcrowding in rental housing, with four percent living in units with 1.01 to 1.5 persons per
room. When comparing overcrowding with cost burden, the needs observed are not nearly as pressing.

Estimate the number and type of families in need of housing assistance who are disabled or

What are the most common housing problems?
By far, the most common housing problem in Lubbock is cost burden. According to the CHAS data in
Table 5 above, over 72 percent of households in the 0-30% AMI income category (including renters and
owners) had a cost burden of over 30%, with over 66 percent having a cost burden of over 50%. A 30%
cost burden means that a household is spending more than 30% of their gross income on housing
expenses, including utilities. Over 70 percent of households in the 30-50% AMI income category had a
30% cost burden, with 37 percent having a 50% cost burden. The numbers fall off somewhat for the
next highest income category where 42 percent of households in the 50-80% AMI category had a 30%
cost burden, with only eight percent having a 50% cost burden.
Looking at cost burden and severe cost burden by tenure, over 67 percent of renter households and 62
percent of owner households earning less than 30% of the area median income (AMI) paying more than
50% of their income on housing expenses. For rental households, severe cost burden is the most
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 24
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
common housing problem with 36 percent of all renter households earning below 100% of the AMI
paying more than 50% of their income on housing expenses, while cost burden is the most common for
owner households where 21.6 percent of all owner households earning below 100% of the AMI paying
more than 30% of their income on housing expenses, with severe cost burden not far behind with 21.5
percent paying more than 50% of their income on housing expenses.
By comparison, the numbers for overcrowding and incomplete kitchen or plumbing facilities were low,
with less than five percent of the lowest income category living in overcrowded conditions and less than
two percent living without complete kitchen or plumbing facilities.
Are any populations/household types more affected than others by these problems?
Cost burden and extreme cost burden affect all household types in the lower income categories. In
simple numerical terms, it would appear that "Other" households bear much of the brunt of severe cost
burden, with over 61 percent of the total number of below 30% AMI rental households
experiencing severe cost burden and 41 percent of owner households in the same income category
experiencing severe cost burden. The data, however, does not provide a perspective in the percentage
of households that comprise the "Other" household category. Much of the "Other" category is made up
of single -person households and census data indicate that about 30 percent of households in Lubbock
are single -person households. It is therefore safe to assume that the size of the "Other" household
category is relative large. Generally speaking, it appears that all household types in both the renter and
owner categories are hard hit by housing costs in the below 30% AMI income groups.
Describe the characteristics and needs of Low-income individuals and families with children
(especially extremely low-income) who are currently housed but are at imminent risk of
either residing in shelters or becoming unsheltered 91.205(c)/91.305(c)). Also discuss the
needs of formerly homeless families and individuals who are receiving rapid re -housing
assistance and are nearing the termination of that assistance
Low-income individuals and families who are currently housed but are at risk of either residing in
shelters or becoming unsheltered are living paycheck to paycheck, just making ends meet. They are
often one paycheck away from being homeless in the event of a sudden loss of employment or medical
emergency which redirects financial resources. These households span all types, including individuals
living alone, small families, large families, and the elderly. Some households have relatives or friends
with whom they can double -up, thus avoiding homelessness, at least in technical terms, but these
accommodations are not long-term solutions to their needs. These households, particularly extremely
low-income households, need a wide variety of assistance to help them meet those emergency needs
that occasionally crop up in everyone's lives. This assistance could include job training to help them
transition into better paying professions, mortgage/rental assistance, medical clinics that provide low or
no cost care, rent subsidies, and other services that help absorb the costs that might redirect funds
dedicated to housing.
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 25
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
Formerly homeless families and individuals also need these services to reduce the prospect of returning
to homelessness. Transitional housing units, permanent supportive housing, and rent subsidies help
meet the housing expenses of households returning from homelessness, while job training programs
help with job prospects. Other social services are needed on occasion as circumstances demand.
If a jurisdiction provides estimates of the at -risk population(s), it should also include a
description of the operational definition of the at -risk group and the methodology used to
generate the estimates:
Homeless service providers in Lubbock work together to plan for the needs of homeless individuals and
families. They have combined their efforts as South Plains Homeless Consortium, a non-profit umbrella
organization that strives to:
• Avoid unnecessary duplication of efforts and close gaps in services
• Educate ourselves and our community about the causes and extent of homelessness
• Advocate for the homeless/at risk population to prevent homelessness
The South Plains Homeless Consortium, along with other local consortiums/coalitions, belongs to the
Texas Homeless Network Balance of State Continuum of Care (THNBoSCoC). More than 200 Texas
Counties are covered by this Balance of State CoC. The Texas Homeless Network assists local
communities with point -in -time surveys of homeless populations in those communities. The point -in -
time count provides the estimates of the various categories of homeless individuals and families. These
include chronic homeless, veterans, families with children, families without children, individuals, and
unaccompanied children.
Specify particular housing characteristics that have been linked with instability and an
increased risk of homelessness
Severe cost burden is linked with housing instability and an increased risk of homelessness. When a
household is paying too large a portion of their income on housing expenses, sudden and unexpected
financial demands can tip the scales, forcing them from their homes. These demands might include
illnesses requiring hospital stays or time away from their job, automotive problems requiring repairs or
loss of work due to lack of transportation, and legal problems that might require payments to lawyers or
time away from their job. Lower income households are particularly susceptible to these financial
impacts because they are less likely to have savings that can cover these expenses and buffer the effects
of monetary demands in covering unexpected events.
Discussion
Cost burden and extreme cost burden are the most common housing problem across all lower income
households in Lubbock, both renter and owner. The lower the income of the household, the more
extreme the cost burden. Overcrowding is also a common problem in many lower income households,
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 26
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
though the numbers are much lower than those of cost burden. There is some concern with lack of
complete plumbing and kitchen facilities, but these conditions are not widespread. As a proxy for
housing condition, lack of complete kitchen or plumbing facilities does not tell the entire story. Many
units with complete kitchen and plumbing facilities may not be habitable.

NA-15 Disproportionately Greater Need: Housing Problems — 91.205 (b)(2)
Assess the need of any racial or ethnic group that has disproportionately greater need in comparison to
the needs of that category of need as a whole.
Introduction
The 2005-2009 CHAS data, constructed from data collected by the US Census Bureau for HUD, show
housing problems by income and race/ethnicity. The housing problems include incomplete kitchen or
plumbing facilities, cost burden greater than 30 percent, and overcrowding (more than 1 person per
room). The tables below show the distribution of one or more problems by race/ethnicity for each of
four lower income groups, 0 to 30 percent of the area median income, 30 to 50 percent of the area
median income, 50 to 80 percent of the area median income, and 80 to 100 percent of the area median
income. The discussion following the tables will identify disproprotionally greater need within each
income group for particular racial or ethnic group. The next section will look at severe housing problems
(severe over crowding and extreme cost burden).

*The four housing problems are:
1. Lacks complete kitchen facilities, 2. Lacks complete plumbing facilities, 3. More than one person per

Discussion
The three largest racial/ethnic groups in Lubbock are White, Hispanic, and African -American, with 59.55,
30.55, and seven percent of the population in the order listed. Among these three groups, there are no
disproportionate needs identifiable between the groups when compared with the jurisdiction as a
whole. The only racial group that shows a disproportionately greater need is the Asian population in the
0-30% AMI income category and the 80-100% AMI income category. In both instances the prevelance of
housing problems for the Asian population is more than 10 percent above the prevelance for the
jurisdiction as a whole. The Asian population, however, is only 1.36 percent of the population of
Lubbock and do not represent a large disparity given the size of the population.

Introduction
The 2005-2009 CHAS data constructed from data collected by the US Census Bureau for HUD show
housing problems by income and race/ethnicity. The severe housing problems include incomplete
kitchen or plumbing facilities, cost burden over 50 percent, and severe overcrowding (more than 1.5
persons per room). The tables below show the distribution of severe housing problems by
race/ethnicity for each of four lower income groups, 0 to 30 percent of the area median income, 30 to
50 percent of the area median income, 50 to 80 percent of the area median income, and 80 to 100
percent of the area median income. The discussion following the tables will identify disproprotionally
greater need within each income group for particular racial or ethnic group.

The 2005-2009 CHAS data were used to compare housing cost burden across racial/ethnic groups. Cost
burden (30 to 50% of household income going to housing expenses), extreme cost burden (more than

NA-30 Disproportionately Greater Need: Discussion — 91.205(b)(2)
Are there any Income categories in which a racial or ethnic group has disproportionately
greater need than the needs of that income category as a whole?
From the CHAS data presented in the previous sections, there is little identifiable disproportionately
greater need indicated between racial/ethnic groups in Lubbock other than the lowest and the
highest income groups for a relatively small Asian population. The total Asian population makes up less
than two percent of the total population of Lubbock, however, and the impact of the disproportionately
greater need is small. Between the two major racial/ethnic groups, White and Hispanic, which comprise
more than 90 percent of the population of Lubbock, the CHAS data show little difference.
If they have needs not identified above, what are those needs?
None identified
Are any of those racial or ethnic groups located in specific areas or neighborhoods in your
community?
Maps included in the market analysis show some census tracts east of downtown Lubbock are home to
a relatively high portion of the city's African -American population, with the total African -American
population in those tracts ranging from 25 to 68 percent of the total population of those tracts, in a city
where the total African -American population is only seven percent of the total population of the
city. Likewise, there are tracts north, east, and southeast of the downtown area that are home to
relatively high portion of the city's Hispanic population, ranging from 50 to 85 percent of the total
population of the tracts, compared to a total Hispanic population in the city of about 30 percent.

NA-35 Public Housing — 91.205(b)
Introduction
The Lubbock Housing Authority operates 355 public housing units in five developments and manages 748 vouchers, three in the Family
Unification Program and the rest are tenant -based. The average annual income of their public housing residents and voucher holders is almost
$12,000. The average length of stay for public housing residents and voucher holders is five years. The residents include 70 elderly persons in
public housing and 126 with vouchers and 46 families with persons with disabilities in public housing and 217 with disabilities holding
vouchers. The largest racial/ethnic groups among residents are White, with 219 in public housing and 408 vouchers, and African -American, with
135 in public housing and 334 with vouchers. Hispanics account for 172 in public housing and 226 with vouchers. It should be noted, most of
those categorized as White are also Hispanic, as Hispanic is an ethnic category and not a racial category.

Section 504 Needs Assessment: Describe the needs of public housing tenants and applicants
on the waiting list for accessible units:
According to the 2011 PHA Annual Plan for the Lubbock Housing Authority, there were 116 families with
disabilities on the Section 8 wait list and 130 families with disabilities on the public housing wait list. As
with families with disabilities in privately owned housing, residents needs housing units that provide
easy access to the unit and all rooms within the unit, are free of obstacles that would prevent access to
bath and kitchen facilities, and are designed in a way that allows those with disabilities access to cooking
and food preparation surfaces.
Most immediate needs of residents of Public Housing and Housing Choice voucher holders
According to the PHA Plan, a total of 544 families were on the Section 8 waiting list. Thirty-six percent
are families with children, three percent are elderly, 21 percent are families with disabilities, 46 percent
are White, and 29 percent are Hispanic. The public housing wait list included 476 families. Sixty-four
percent were families with children, while seven percent were elderly and 27 percent were families with
disabilities. Considering immediate housing needs of public housing residents, almost 55 percent were
seeking one -bedroom units, 14 percent were looking for two -bedroom units, 30 percent needed three -
bedroom units, and the remaining seven percent were wanting four or more bedrooms.
How do these needs compare to the housing needs of the population at large
The housing needs of the public housing wait list closely reflect the distribution of units by number of
bedrooms for the rental population at large in Lubbock. Units are fairly evenly divided between one -
and two -bedroom units, with a much smaller portion being three -bedroom units.
Discussion
The wait lists for public housing and Section 8 vouchers were closed at the time of the development of
the PHA Plan in 2011 but was expected to be reopened during the plan year. The wait list was more
than the total public housing units being operated by the PHA, while the Section 8 wait list was more
than 72 percent of the number of vouchers managed by the PHA. As most of both wait lists were most
likely families with extremely low incomes, the private housing market holds little hope of their finding
suitable housing without assistance. This points to the need for additional public housing options for
potential residents.

Estimate the number and type of families in need of housing assistance for families with
children and the families of veterans.
According to the 2013 Point -in -time survey, there were 70 households with at least one parent with
children included in the count. According to the survey, 77 respondents were veterans, but the survey
did not specify whether the veterans were with families or not.
Describe the Nature and Extent of Homelessness by Racial and Ethnic Group.
According to the 2013 Point -in -time survey, of 376 persons counted 69.5 percent were White, 28.1
percent were African -American, 41.3 percent were Hispanic, two percent were American Indian or
Alaskan Native, and 0.5 percent were Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander. The survey did not
provide any other details based on race or ethnicity.
Describe the Nature and Extent of Unsheltered and Sheltered Homelessness.
The 2013 Point -in -time survey did not provide details that distinguished between sheltered and
unsheltered homeless individuals. If better data are identified, this report will be amended.
Discussion:
The results of the 2013 Point -in -time survey showed a total population of 376 persons, 18.7 percent of
which were in families with children present. Almost 20 percent of those counted could be classified as
chronic homeless. The survey did not provide details about sheltered versus unsheltered. Almost 70
percent of homeless individuals were White, with 28 percent African -American and 41 percent Hispanic.

NA-45 Non -Homeless Special Needs Assessment - 91.205 (b,d)
Introduction:
Non -homeless special needs populations include the elderly, frail elderly, persons with physical and
developmental disabilities, substance abusers, persons with mental illness, and persons living with
HIV/AIDS. These families and individuals are living either with families, in group facilities, or
independently. They have a wide variety of needs, many of which are being met without public
assistance. In some cases, where parents are caring for disabled children, the future of their
independence is at risk.
Describe the characteristics of special needs populations in your community:
These populations have a broad spectrum of characteristics, similarto the population at large, but a
distinguishing factor for them is an increased risk of homelessness due to the fragile nature of their
existance, some relying heavily on others for their care, others living on fixed incomes and vulnerable to
hardships caused by sudden demands on their resources. Alcohol and drug abuse are defined as
excessive and impairing use of alcohol or other drugs. The National Institute of Alcohol and Abuse and
Alcoholism estimated the number of adult men with a drinking problem at 15 percent of the total
population and that of adult women at 6 percent. These percentages, when applied to Lubbock, would
yield a total population of alcohol abuser at 23,921 persons, using 2010 U.S. Census population figures.
Elderly are those individuals aged 62 or older. The elderly population continues to show a strong growth
pattern as a population group. The elderly live a distinctive lifestyle requiring numerous supportive
services. The South Plains Association of Governments operates the local Area Agency on Aging (AAA),
which provides an inclusive and coordinated variety of services and opportunities for seniors, inclusing
information, legal counseling, healthcare assistance, ombudsmanship, family caregiver support, and
resource assistance. The City of Lubbock is responsible for the operation of four senior citizen centers
and and provides a seniors lunch program at five sites (including the four senior centers). The centers
provide much needed services including meals, recreation activities, and a social component. The local
Meals on Wheels program serves over 150,000 meals per year to seniors with a volunteer workforce of
over 1,100 persons. Between 2000 and 2010, the population aged 65 years and over fell from 11.1
percent of the population to 10.8 percent. The 2010 U.S. Census put the population of Lubbock's
population of 62 and over at 30,070.
Persons with physical or developmental disabilities often require special facilities and care. Persons with
developmental disabilities sometimes lack the capacity to care for themselves and rely on a caretaker to
see to their daily needs. More often than not the caretaker is a parent. If the child outlives the parent
who has provide their care all their lives, other arrangements must be made to see to their continued
care. This group can include all ages, races, and ethnicities.
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 44
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
What are the housing and supportive service needs of these populations and how are these
needs determined?
Housing and supportive service needs of these populations include:
• Group housing,
• Physical rehabilitation and medical care,
• New job training skills,
• Unemployment and the resulting loss of income/ insurance coverage due to inability to perform
job functions,
• Extensive medical care and treatment,
• Rehabilitation programs,
• Counseling/ support groups to deal with the problem,
• Addressing unemployment and the resulting loss of income/ insurance coverage due to inability
to perform job functions,
• Medical care/prescription medications, straining their already limited income,
• Special transportation needs due to medical and physical condition,
• Mobility assistance in normal daily activities,
• Assistance in meal preparation, housekeeping and shopping, and
• Physical rehabilitative care due to injury/falls.
These needs were compiled through consultation with service providers.
Discuss the size and characteristics of the population with HIV/AIDS and their families within
the Eligible Metropolitan Statistical Area:
According to the 2012 Texas HIV Surveillance Report, there were 26 new HIV diagnoses and 44 new AIDS
diagnoses in Lubbock County, with a total of 339 persons living with HIV/AIDS. All of the HIV cases and
all but two of the AIDS cases were within the city of Lubbock. The document reported a cumulative total
of 339 cases of persons living with HIV and 650 HIV diagnoses. The 26 new HIV diagnoses was the
highest number of new diagnoses since 2003 in Lubbock County, while the 44 new AIDS diagnoses was
by far the highest in the last ten years, eclipsing the 27 reported in 2003. One person living with
HIV/AIDS was identified in the latest homeless point -in -time survey.
Discussion:
Non -homeless special needs populations encompass a wide variety of persons and households and
cannot be easily categorized except in very general terms. Many as coping well with their situations
with the need for public assistance. Some find needs that can only be met with help from outside their
family. Some are on the verge of homelessness themselves and struggle from day today. Some live
independently, while others depend of family or caregivers to help them on a daily basis. Needs for
these populations are as varied as the populations are themselves and depend on individual situations.

The City conducted a survey of residents and service providers asking their input into the ranking
process for the variety of uses of CDBG funds. The survey was available online and as hard copy at fair
housing focus group sessions and Consolidated Plan forums. While the survey was not a statistically
reliable instrument for prioritizing, it was a useful tool to include community concerns and preferences
into consideration. Staff took the results of the survey and the comments received in the focus group
sessions and forums and completed the ranking process.

Housing Market Analysis
MA-05 Overview
Housing Market Analysis Overview:
The local housing market affects the availability and affordability of housing. In Lubbock, the housing
market has slowly rebounded from the foreclosure crisis of the last decade. With that recovery, housing
prices have increased, but are still affordable with the historically low mortgage interest rates found in
the current market. The following analysis looks at a variety of data from the American Community
Survey, the census, the Lubbock Housing Authority, and homeless service providers to provide a picture
of the local market.

MA-10 Number of Housing Units — 91.210(a)&(b)(2)
Introduction
The housing stock in Lubbock is heavily weighted toward single-family housing, with 66 percent of
households residing in single-family detached structures. Approximately 55 percent of households are
home owners, with 85 percent of owner households living in housing units with three or more
bedrooms. Twenty-eight percent of housing units are in multifamily development, with two to twenty
or more units in the structure. With over 27,550 multifamily units serving over 38,000 renter
households, the data suggest that over 10,000 renter households reside in single-family structures,
either attached or detached. The use of single-family structures for rental housing does address some
of the need for larger housing units for renter households, but the vast disparity of larger units between
renter (34%) and owner (85%) households suggests the need for new housing development aimed
specifically toward larger renter households requiring three or more bedrooms.

Describe the number and targeting (income level/type of family served) of units assisted with
federal, state, and local programs.
The Lubbock Housing Authority owns and operates 355 units of public housing and administers 748
Section 8 vouchers, most of which are tenant -based. There are over 764 assisted apartment units in
Lubbock, operating under contract with HUD. The public housing units target households with low- to
moderate -incomes, though demand for units among low-income households predominates. Units
assisted through contracts with HUD target households with incomes below 80 percent of the area
median income.
Provide an assessment of units expected to be lost from the affordable housing inventory for
any reason, such as expiration of Section 8 contracts.
A database of HUD assisted multifamily properties indicates that there are 23 properties in Lubbock that
have benefitted from HUD insured mortgage instruments with a total of 2,855 units. Of these 23
properties, only nine properties include HUD subsidized units. In these properties, 764 units of a total of
859 units receive HUD subsidies. A total of 1,996 units are included in the 14 properties no longer
receiving HUD subsidies for any of the units in the properties. While the data do not indicate why no
subsidies are being received, it can be assumed that at one time subsidies were being applied to at least
a portion of these 1,996 units, but are no longer.
Does the availability of housing units meet the needs of the population?
Sixty-six percent of all households in Lubbock reside in single-family detached homes. While this is often
considered the ideal in terms of raising a family, the growing senior population may require a
reconsideration of what is ideal with respect to housing type. In the coming years, the growing senior
population may put more market pressure on smaller apartment units, particularly efficiencies and one -
bedroom units, as they look to downsize from the single-family home in which they raised their
families. Future development of units designed with retirees in mind and active senior apartment
communities may take on a larger presence in the housing market.
Describe the need for specific types of housing:
As shown in the Units by Tenure data, the vast majority of owner households reside in home with three
or more bedrooms (85%). By comparison, only 34 percent of renter households reside in units with
three or more bedrooms. While many renter households contain single or couple households with no
children, a number of larger renter households are overcrowded in smaller rental units, less than three
bedrooms. There is a need for more apartment developments with larger units, particularly three or
more bedrooms.
Discussion

The majority of housing units in Lubbock are in single-family structures (68%). Of renter households,
most (66%) live in units with two or fewer bedrooms. As the demographics of the city and state start
reflecting the aging of the baby boom generation, the housing market will need to adapt to provide new
housing opportunities for those seeking to downsize from their family home to smaller units, some of
which might be in senior's communities where residents can participate in a variety of community
activities, including meals, exercise, shopping, and entertainment. The housing stock also needs
additional supplies of larger rental units, some of which may come from the baby boomers moving to
smaller units. The rental stock is 34 percent larger units (three or more bedrooms) compared to 85
percent for owner occupied units. There is a large inventory of HUD insured rental units in Lubbock
which are not subsidized, suggesting loss of affordable housing inventory from the expiration of Section
8 contracts over the years.

MA-15 Housing Market Analysis: Cost of Housing - 91.210(a)
Introduction
Housing costs are a major portion of any households' monthly budget. In 2000, the median home value
in Lubbock was $67,900. By 2009, the median value had increased by 49 percent to over
$101,000. Rental costs had similar, though somewhat lower, increases rising 30 percent from $441 in
2000 to $573 in 2009. In Lubbock, almost 54 percent of renter households paid between $500 and $999
per month in rent. Just over six percent of the rental housing stock was affordable to households
earning less than 30 percent of the area median income. No homes were priced in a range that would
be affordable for a household earning less than 30 percent of the area median income.

Data Source: HUD FMR and HOME Rents
Is there sufficient housing for households at all income levels?
As would be expected, the lowest income households have the least housing stock from which to
choose, clearly not enough to meet the needs of the community. With no homes priced at a level
affordable to those earning below 30 percent of the area median income, rental properties are their
only option. The data show that six percent of rental units are affordable to those earning less than 30
percent of the area median income. With this limited housing stock, many households are forced to
spend more of their income on housing expenses, moving up to higher priced rental housing. This
creates a cost burden for those households, requiring that they spend more than 30 percent of their
household income on housing expenses. In many cases it creates an extreme cost burden, requiring
more than 50 percent of their income for housing. In some cases households are forced to double -up
with other families, sharing housing units that were designed for only one household.
How is affordability of housing likely to change considering changes to home values and/or
rents?
With a 49 percent increase in median home value, homeownership is becoming less affordable. With an
improving economy, that pressure on homeownership is likely to increase as the housing market
recovers from the mortgage foreclosure situation of the recent past and home prices return to pre-2008
levels and grow even more. On the other hand, mortgage interest rates are at historic lows, which make
home purchases more affordable than would have been possible in 2000 when rates were higher. The
lower interest rates are, to some extent, responsible for the rise in home prices since 2000 as an
individual household is able to afford a higher home price with the lower interest rate. Rents, however,
rose at a slower pace, 30 percent between 2000 and 2009. Rents are less affordable than in 2000 and
the demand for rental housing is most likely higher than in 2000 with former homeowners who lost their
homes to foreclosure looking for rental housing instead of looking to buy.
How do HOME rents / Fair Market Rent compare to Area Median Rent? How might this
impact your strategy to produce or preserve affordable housing?
In most cases, high HOME rents do not meet fair market rent expectations in Lubbock. Only in the case
of one -bedroom units do high HOME rents exceed the fair market rent. For three -bedroom units, high
HOME rents amount to only 83 percent of fair market rents and only 79 percent for four -bedroom
units. In all cases, the low HOME rents are significantly below fair market rents. HOME and Fair Market
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
57
Rents compare favorably to the area median rent of $573 in 2009. The median rent covers all unit sizes
while HOME and Fair Market Rents are shown by unit size indicated by the number of bedrooms. In
almost all cases, the HOME and Fair Market Rents exceed the median rent. Fair Market Rents for three
and four -bedroom units are sufficiently high to justify housing strategies that target the development of
larger units for larger households looking for rental properties with Section 8 assistance.
Discussion
Competing factors in the housing market, rising prices and historically low mortgage interest rates, have
kept homeownership affordability somewhat constant over the past decade. The mortgage market,
however, created a situation through "liar" loans and adjustable rate mortgage products where large
numbers of homeowners lost their homes to foreclosure. This resulted in a bubble in the supply of
homes on the market and a dip in home prices, but many were unable to take advantage of the market
conditions because of a tightening of mortgage requirements and the inability of many to qualify for
mortgage under the more stringent rules. Rents, on the other hand, increased by 30 percent since 2000,
putting pressure on lower income households looking for rental opportunities.

MA-20 Housing Market Analysis: Condition of Housing — 91.210(a)
Introduction
The condition of housing units is highly correlated to the income of the household residing within those
housing units. In Lubbock, 78 percent of owner -occupied housing units and 47 percent of renter -
occupied housing units have no housing problems reported. Four conditions are represented as housing
problems, including lack of complete kitchen facilities, lack of complete plumbing facilities, more than
one person per room, and cost burden (paying more than 30% of household income on housing
expenses). The data show that 21 percent of owner households and 51 percent of renter households
have one housing problem or condition. Presumably, this one housing problem is most likely either cost
burden or more than one person per room, with the later more likely for renter housing than for owner
housing. Sixty-one percent of owner -occupied housing and 55 percent of renter -occupied housing was
built prior to 1980, making those units potential sources of lead -based paint contamination. While not
all will have lead -based paint, the age of the units suggest that at one time lead -based paint may have
been used on the unit and provides a potential hazard, particularly for households with children
present. Over 12,400 units in Lubbock were built before 1980 and have children present in the
household. It is reasonable to assume that a large number of these households are lower income
households due to the fact that older housing stock is often filtered down through the income
categories to the lowest income households.
Definitions
Substandard condition is defined as a combination of incomplete kitchen or plumbing facilities, missing
windows or exterior doors, severely compromised foundations, outdated electrical infrastructure, holes
in floors or walls, and holes in roof or severely compromised roofing materials preventing closure from
weather penetration. Many units with a combination that includes all these conditions may be unfit for
human occupation. Some may be candidates for rehabilitation, others may not be. Substandard
condition by suitable for rehabilitation would be units where the home is determined to be 60 percent
deteriorated or the cost of the combination of needed repairs of all conditions does not exceed the
estimated after -rehabilitation value of the house.

Need for Owner and Rental Rehabilitation
Sixty-one percent of the owner -occupied housing stock and 55 percent of the renter -occupied housing
was built prior to 1980, placing the age of that housing at more than 30 years old, much of it many years
older. As the housing stock ages, water infiltration and many other factors can cause rapid
deteriorization of housing units, particularly where the residents don't or can't provide needed
maintenance. In some areas of Lubbock, the housing stock may exceed 50 years of age and the median
income of the residents of those areas may be less than 50 percent of the area median income. In these
situations it is likely that housing conditions generally throughout these areas are poor. In some areas of
Lubbock one can find many homes with poor external conditions which suggest equally poor internal
conditions. The City operates owner and rental rehabilitation programs that target these areas in an
effort to improve the basic housing stock found in the city.
Estimated Number of Housing Units Occupied by Low or Moderate Income Families with LBP
Hazards
Hazards
The data show that the number of housing units in Lubbock built prior to 1980, and potentially where
lead -based paint hazards might be found, include 61 percent of all owner housing and 55 percent
of rental housing. Eighteen percent of owner housing units and 10 percent of rental housing units built
prior to 1980 are occupied by families with children present, a total of over 12,400 housing units. As
housing units and neighborhoods age, they typically fall through the income classes from middle- or
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 62
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
moderate -income households to lower income households. Neighborhoods that were once middle class
become home to lower income groups as they age. Typically, with some exceptions, the oldest
neighborhoods found are where the poorest residents are found. As a result, it is reasonable to assume
that most of the 12,400 units in Lubbock built prior to 1980 and occupied by families with children are
likely occupied by low- or moderate -income families.
Discussion
There is an extensive need for rehabilitation programs in Lubbock targeting the improvement of the
City's oldest housing stock. These programs, which are currently ongoing through the City's CDBG and
HOME funding, provide owners of owner -occupied, single-family housing and multifamily rental housing
with loans and/or grants to facilitate needed repairs which have not been effected by current or
previous owners. These repairs include structural and cosmetic repairs both inside the unit and on the
exterior and testing for and remediation of lead -based paint hazards in older housing units.

Data Source Comments:
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 67
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
Describe mainstream services, such as health, mental health, and employment services to the
extent those services are use to complement services targeted to homeless persons
Homeless service providers in Lubbock provide a wide range of housing and services to their clients,
including shelters and transitional housing facilities, substance abuse treatment, case management, job
training, clothes closets to provide clothing suitable for job interviews, food, and transportation. All
depend, to some extent, on mainstream services to supplement those offered in-house. These include
transportation services, dental care, legal assistance, health and mental health care, job training, and
childcare. Some of these services are offered pro bono from caring professionals. Other services
require some payment from the client.
List and describe services and facilities that meet the needs of homeless persons, particularly
chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their
families, and unaccompanied youth. If the services and facilities are listed on screen SP-40
Institutional Delivery Structure or screen MA-35 Special Needs Facilities and Services,
describe how these facilities and services specifically address the needs of these populations.
Lubbock is served by a wide range of organizations that address the needs of homeless individuals and
families. Included are:
• Women's Protective Services - emergency shelter for victims of domestic violence
• Chatholic Charities - counseling at -risk youth
• The Salvation Army - emergency shelter and transitional housing
• Sunrise Canyon Hospital - emergency shelterfor people who are a danger to themselves or
others
• Lubbock Faith Center -transitional housing
• Alcohol Recovery Center - transitional housing

MA-35 Special Needs Facilities and Services — 91.210(d)
Introduction
Special needs populations in Lubbock include the elderly; frail elderly; persons with mental, physical, or
developmental disabilities; persons with HIV/AIDS; and persons with substance abuse
problems. Considering the non -homeless special needs population, many in these populations are
currently having their housing and service needs met without or with limited public
assistance. Circumstances, however, are subject to change and the more the community prepares for
future needs, the better it will be able to meet those needs when they occur.
Including the elderly, frail elderly, persons with disabilities (mental, physical, developmental),
persons with alcohol or other drug addictions, persons with HIV/AIDS and their families,
public housing residents and any other categories the jurisdiction may specify, and describe
their supportive housing needs
The supportive housing needs of special needs populations in Lubbock vary according to the
population. In coming years, the needs of the elderly and frail elderly will increase as the over 65 year
old population grows with the aging of the baby boom population. These needs may include nursing
care facilities targeted to lower income households who cannot afford private nursing home
care. Permanent supportive housing options for persons with mental, physical, and developmental
disabilities may also become a pressing issue as persons with disabilities who previously been taken care
of parents lose those caregivers to death or incapacity. With healthcare systems enabling persons with
disabilities to live longer, many are now outliving their caregivers, increasing demand for group housing
that provides the care this population needs.
Describe programs for ensuring that persons returning from mental and physical health
institutions receive appropriate supportive housing
Many of the homeless shelters operate under a rapid re -housing structure for clients coming into the
system, but there is no established protocol within the service provision structure in Lubbock regarding
returning patients from mental and physical health institutions.
Specify the activities that the jurisdiction plans to undertake during the next year to address
the housing and supportive services needs identified in accordance with 91.215(e) with
respect to persons who are not homeless but have other special needs. Link to one-year
goals. 91.315(e)
The City will be funding housing rehabilitation and emergency repair programs that work with the
elderly, among other populations, in an attempt to maintain their home so they can continue to reside
there. As a homeowner ages he/she is often unable to continue to provide the maintenance needed to
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 69
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
keep the home habitable. The City's programs work with those homeowners to address pressing issues
that arise, such as roof leaks or plumbing failures, and also more extensive rehabilitation needed to
bring a home completely up to current building code.
For entitlement/consortia grantees: Specify the activities that the jurisdiction plans to
undertake during the next year to address the housing and supportive services needs
identified in accordance with 91.215(e) with respect to persons who are not homeless but
have other special needs. Link to one-year goals. (91.220(2))
The City of Lubbock does not currently have any plans to directly address the housing and supportive
service needs of persons who are not homeless but have other special needs. The City supports the
efforts of the the Area Agency on Aging of the South Plains Association of Governments, which operates
many programs that address the supportive service needs of seniors. The City also operates four senior
centers where meals are served and supports the local Meals on Wwheels program.

Introduction
Housing preferences are fulfilled by a household's ability to meet the financial needs of owning or renting their desired housing unit. The
economic health of a community has a large impact on that ability through the job market, business activity, and the households relative place in
the economy determined by their level of education and employment status. The data below provide a look at where jobs and economic activity
in Lubbock provide employment opportunities and some descriptive consideration of education and employment levels.

Based on the Business Activity table above, what are the major employment sectors within
your jurisdiction?
The most active business sector in Lubbock, in terms of the number of workers in the various industries,
is Education and Health Care Services with 27 percent of all workers. That sector is followed by Retail
Trade and Arts, Entertainment, Accommodations with 12 and 10 percent respectively. Professional,
Scientific, Management Services has a nine percent share of workers, followed by Finance, Insurance
and Real Estate with seven percent and Manufacturing and Construction with a six percent share each.
Describe the workforce and infrastructure needs of the business community:
To be determined through the Con Plan workshops and community survey. Will be updated at the
conclusion of that process.
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 78
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
Describe any major changes that may have an economic impact, such as planned local or
regional public or private sector investments or initiatives that have affected or may affect
job and business growth opportunities during the planning period. Describe any needs for
workforce development, business support or infrastructure these changes may create.
There have been several recent economic development successes in Lubbock that will affect job and
business growth in the coming years, according to the Lubbock Economic Development Alliance
(LEDA). These successes include: Republic National Distributing Company's announcement of the
construction of a 125,000 square foot distribution facility that will provide 51 jobs over five years and
have an annual economic impact of over $19 million; Custom TeleConnect's announcement
of expansion of their Lubbock office providing 163 new jobs with an annual economic impact of over
$17.7 million; and AmpliSine Labs' expansion of their Lubbock location to add another 115 new jobs with
an annual economic impact of over $9 million. These investments will require new skills in the local
workforce, many of which can be provided in partnership with existing job training programs.
How do the skills and education of the current workforce correspond to employment
opportunities in the jurisdiction?
Generally, there is a wide range of jobs in Lubbock with a variety of education and skill
requirements. The industry with the most workers in Lubbock is the Education and Health Care Services
sector, which typically has stringent education and skill requirements for the most visible portion of the
workforce, the educators, doctors, and nurses. The sector also has a large support staff with lower
education and skill requirements, including maintenance workers, drivers, and many other job
classifications. Lubbock's second and third largest sectors are Retail Trade and Arts, Entertainment,
Accommodations, typically calling for a less educated, less skilled workforce. Lubbock has a relatively
well educated workforce, with over three times as many residents over the age of 16 having a college
degree as those not having finished high school.
Describe any current workforce training initiatives, including those supported by Workforce
Investment Boards, community colleges and other organizations. Describe how these efforts
will support the jurisdiction's Consolidated Plan.
According to the LEDA website, the following workforce training initiatives were active in Lubbock.
Community Workforce Partnership (CWP) - In 2000, LEDA helped form the CWP. The purpose of CWP is
to carry out a cooperative program that meets the training, education and information needs of local
and regional businesses, industries and the local and regional labor market. In 2004, the CWP received
the Workforce Best Practices Award from the Texas Economic Development Council. Some of the
advances that LEDA and the CWP have helped foster are listed below:
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 79
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
South Plains Center for Productivity and Innovation (SPCPI) - Thanks to the Wagner-Peyser 7(b) grant,
local businesses and their employees can benefit from specialized education and training programs
offered at the newly opened South Plains Center for Productivity and Innovation. SPCPI is an initiative of
the CWP, a 501(c)(3), made up of a group of local organizations dedicated to meeting the workforce
needs of local businesses and industries. The new facility, located at 1622 Mac Davis Lane, will provide
training and education in a variety of specialized areas, including Operations and Service Measurements,
Continuous Improvement, Service Business Flow and Simulations, Sales Team Strategy and Structure
and more.
Nursing Grant Program — Many members of CWP played a role in obtaining the nursing grant, which
was awarded to the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. This grant has been renewed over the
years and provides vital funding for instruction, professors and clinical work. The additional funding has
helped increase the number of nursing graduates for this region.
South Plains Economic Development Task Force (SPEDTF) — In 2002, the SPEDTF began looking for ways
to leverage the many resources of the Lubbock Independent School District (L.I.S.D.) to be available to
all students of the South Plains region. The efforts of the CWP helped form the Career and Technology
Consortium of West Texas. This organization was responsible forstarting the Automotive Technician
Pilot Project to help facilitate curriculum at the secondary level as well as build a feeder program for
post -secondary education for auto technicians. This pilot project became the model program for
building other industry -led certifications, associate degrees, bachelor's degrees, and in this case, a
doctoral program at Texas Tech University for Mechanical Engineering. Other career pathway programs
which used this pilot program as a blueprint are listed below:
• West Texas Manufacturing Association
• Industrial Manufacturing
• Allied Heath Programs
• Cotton Gin Technicians
• Wind Turbine Technicians
• Computer Programming Project
Skills Development Fund Grants —The CWP assisted South Plains College, The Texas Manufacturing
Assistance Center and Workforce Solutions in writing grants, which provided funding to train and
enhance the skills of incumbent and new employees for local businesses.
Does your jurisdiction participate in a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy
(CEDS)?
No

If so, what economic development initiatives are you undertaking that may be coordinated
with the Consolidated Plan? If not, describe other local/regional plans or initiatives that
impact economic growth.
As detailed on the LEDA website, LEDA opened the Lubbock Business Park, a 586-acre tract of land
located on Interstate-27, approximately one mile south of Lubbock Preston Smith International Airport.
This successful venture is currently showing signs of increased growth, with the construction of Verizon
Wireless' new data center and the Texas Department of Public Safety's regional headquarters slated to
open soon. To date, $24.9 million has been committed for public infrastructure at the Lubbock Business
Park. For every $1 spent, private investment has spent $5.21. With the addition of more roads into the
complex and an additional 10 lots now available for new construction, the Lubbock Business Park is
showing all the signs of being a vibrant option for any business looking to relocate or expand.
While looking for a viable means to increase commerce to this region, LEDA helped implement the
Lubbock Rail Port, a 526-acre tract of land located just north of the Lubbock Preston Smith International
Airport, which provides convenient access to Interstate-27, the airport and Burlington Northern Santa Fe
(BNSF) Railway. Due to the acquisition of an additional 200 acres and a $1.5 million grant from the U.S.
Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration to extend additional rail into the Park,
the rail port is an attractive location for food processors, light manufacturing and heavy industrial
companies.
Discussion
The Lubbock Economic Development Alliance has worked in concert with the City and private companies
to provide structure for the growth of the city's job base and provide training for the workforce. New
initiatives, including the Lubbock Business Park and the Lubbock Rail Port, provided infrastructure
improvements that make relocation to and/or expansion of facilities in Lubbock more attractive to
corporate entities. The success of these facilities are reflected in the number of corporate relocations
and expansions to these facilities in recent years. To staff these new expansion opportunities, the LEDA
provides several workforce training initiatives.

MA-50 Needs and Market Analysis Discussion
Are there areas where households with multiple housing problems are concentrated?
(include a definition of "concentration")
The census tracts that are identified as eligible for CDBG area benefit (median income below 80 percent
of the area median income) include some of the oldest neighborhoods in the city. The housing in these
neighborhoods are often in poor condition and many are in need of extensive rehabilitation or
removal. These neighborhoods are also where the lowest income households in the city live, in housing
stock that is in poor condition, and, therefore, offered at lower rents or sales prices. Despite the lower
rents or purchase price, the lower income households pay a large portion of their income on housing
expenses. In this case, concentrated would mean that a large portion of the neighborhood shows the
impact of these housing problems.
Are there any areas in the jurisdiction where racial or ethnic minorities or low-income
families are concentrated? (include a definition of "concentration")
As of the 2010 Census, African -Americans comprise about eight percent of the population of Lubbock
(8.6%). There is some concentration of the African -American population in census tracts east of
downtown, with the percentage of the total population being as much as 68 percent. Most of the tracts
are within the CDBG area benefit tracts (where median incomes of the tracts are below 80 percent of
the area median income). These areas also show high rates of poverty, with poverty rates above 40
percent of the population of the tracts. Maps of poverty rates and concentrations of African -Americans
are included below.
Likewise, the Hispanic population, which makes up 32 percent of the total population of Lubbock, is
concentrated in census tracts north, east, and southeast of the downtown area. In some of these tracts,
the percentage Hispanic exceeds 85 percent of the total population of the tract. These tracts also show
high rates of poverty. A map of the Hispanic population concentrations is provided below as well.
What are the characteristics of the market in these areas/neighborhoods?
These neighborhoods, as mentioned above, contain much of the poorest housing stock in the city. As a
result, the housing market contains much of the lowest cost housing as well. Code enforcement officials
worked extensively in these areas in an attempt to maintain the integrity of the community in past
years, however previous CDBG funding for code enforcement has been ended. Some neighborhoods
have a number of vacant lots where homes have been removed.
Are there any community assets in these areas/neighborhoods?
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 82
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
These areas do have community assets, including community and senior centers, parks, and other public
facilities. Much of the public housing operated by the Lubbock Housing Authority is also located within
these neighborhoods.
Are there other strategic opportunities in any of these areas?
In neighborhoods where many homes have been removed, there may be opportunities for development
of new housing units. In areas where brownfield issues are not a concern, private and non-profit
developers can find appropriate redevelopment sites to provide homes for a range of household
incomes, including lower and upper income households. These efforts would aid in sustainability
efforts, bringing more people into the neighborhoods and improving the housing stock available in the
market.

The City conducted a survey of residents through a survey instrument posted on the City's website and
hard copy surveys distributed at all Fair Housing focus group sessions and Consolidated Plan
forums. The results of these surveys were used by City staff to allocate priorities among the various
facility, infrastructure, service, and economic development needs listed above. Use of Community
Development Block Grant funds is limited to those activities deemed to have "High" priorities.

owners willingness to rent their units to TBRA clients. In many communities,
(TBRA)
landlords are reluctant to rent to these clients due to the reputation they have
that the clients do not take care of the property as well as other renters
do. Other market conditions that could influence the use of TBRA have to do
with rents being asked for rental property. If rents are too high, the rental
assistance might not be enough to allow clients to lease the units, even if the
landlord was willing.

accessibility needs. Most housing in any community has not had accessibility
improvements that allow persons with mobility issues ease of access. While
landlords are obligated to make reasonable accommodations for such renters,
many need more accommodations than typical landlords would consider
reasonable.
New Unit
The production of new housing units is influenced by several market conditions,
Production
including the cost of land, the cost of construction, and prevailing interest
rates. While rates are currently at historic lows, the mortgage markets are still
recovering from the recent mortgage foreclosure crisis and restrictions placed
on lending institutions that resulted. In many areas lenders are not making
new loans as freely as before and some well qualified buyers are finding it
difficult to navigate the new mortgage processes that have been
instituted. The resulting delays in securing loans can burden housing
developers and restrict their activities.
Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation activities can be influenced by the cost of materials and labor. In
Lubbock, these costs are relative low in comparison to other areas of the
country. The efficiency of rehabilitation is dependent on the after
rehabilitation value of the home. If the market value of the home does not
support the extent of rehabilitation required, it's not worth the effort to repair
the home.

approximate the monthly housing costs of lower priced homes at higher
interest rates. In the case of a City agency or non-profit organization buying
housing stock for rehabilitation and resale or for preservation, the costs of
purchasing a home outright at higher prices can reduce the number of homes
that can be purchased or reduce the funds available for rehabilitation activities.

Table 52 - Institutional Delivery Structure
Assess of Strengths and Gaps in the Institutional Delivery System
The institutional delivery system in Lubbock is well coordinated and spans a range of community
needs. The City has many years of experience managing and implementing the programs addressed in
the Consolidated Plan, as well as working with outside agencies that fill some of the needs as outlined in
the Consolidated Plan. Services provided by the Emergency Solutions Grant Program are managed by a
group of homeless service providers who work together as a coalition in response to HUD grant
requirements as the South Plains Homeless Consortium. Though this organization, the group collects
facilities and client information and prepares grant proposals in an effort to bring additional resources to
Lubbock. The Housing Authority of Lubbock operates public housing units and works well with City staff
and the City political leadership. The lone gap is the limited number of CHDOs operating in Lubbock. At
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 113
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
this time there are only four CHDOs, though the City provides ongoing technical assistance. More
CHDOs could further assist the City in meeting its housing goals.

Table 53 - Homeless Prevention Services Summary
Describe how the service delivery system including, but not limited to, the services listed
above meet the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and
families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth)
The services targeted to homeless persons and persons with HIV/AIDS and mainstream services are
made available through the coordination of services provided by the array of non-profit service
providers that constitute the South Plains Homeless Consortium. These organization partner with each
other, the City, and mainstream service providers to provide a wide ranging response to the service
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 114
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
needs of homeless persons and persons with HIV/AIDS, particularly chronically homeless individuals and
families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth.
Describe the strengths and gaps of the service delivery system for special needs population
and persons experiencing homelessness, including, but not limited to, the services listed
above
The service providers in Lubbock work closely together to provide a continuum of services in response
to needs identified through surveys of homeless persons and general observations of the
providers. Providers in Lubbock are particularly strong in the areas of case management and life skills
training. The lone gaps identified in the chart above are child care services and educational services
targeted to homeless persons. Another gap in the coordination of services centers on the lack of
universal participation of providers in the HMIS system. All homeless providers who participate in
federal funding programs are enrolled in the HMIS system.
Provide a summary of the strategy for overcoming gaps in the institutional structure and
service delivery system for carrying out a strategy to address priority needs
1. Work with non-profit organizations to address community needs and provide support to federal
and non-federal funding initiatives.
2. Work with private industry to address important issues that hamper housing and community
development efforts.
3. Identify opportunities to create private/public partnerships for project finance and development
to leverage federal funds.

Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 129
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
SP-60 Homelessness Strategy — 91.215(d)
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their
individual needs
The strategy for the first homelessness objective provides that City staff continue its work with the
South Plains Homeless Consortium, the local coalition that organizes the Continuum of Care and submits
grant applications for homeless initiatives. The coalition also conducts yearly point -in -time counts of the
homeless and conducts a bi-yearly survey of the homeless. City staff participate in the counts and
surveys. The point -in -time counts and the surveys work to reach out to homeless persons, including
unsheltered persons, and assesses individual and family needs, contributing to the consultation brought
to the Consolidated Plan forums and survey from which priorities are formed.
Addressing the emergency and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
The Strategic Plan provides that the City provide support for fundraising efforts for non-profit homeless
providers who work with organizations to add transitional housing units. The City also provides funding
for organizations that offer emergency shelters through the Emergency Solutions Grant program.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families
with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to
permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that
individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals
and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were
recently homeless from becoming homeless again.
The Strategic Plan supports efforts to provide permanent supportive housing, including special needs
populations. The plan also provides for attention to expansion of services for the prevention of
homelessness through tenant -based mortgage and rental assistance programs that provide temporary
assistance to prevent evictions.
Help low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely
low-income individuals and families who are likely to become homeless after being
discharged from a publicly funded institution or system of care, or who are receiving
assistance from public and private agencies that address housing, health, social services,
employment, education or youth needs
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 130
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)

SP-65 Lead based paint Hazards — 91.215(i)
Actions to address LBP hazards and increase access to housing without LBP hazards
Goal: Increase the inventory of lead safe housing units.
Strategies:
• Continue to meet HUD lead -based paint abatement standards in housing
rehabilitation programs.
• Identify additional funding to perform abatement on pre 1978 housing in the target census
tracts and perform abatement to reduce affected units by 10 percent during the five year period
ending December 2018 based on current estimates of lead -based paint affected units.
• Seek funding as it becomes available to provide testing and abatement of lead -based paint
hazards in single-family housing where young children are present.
• Expand the stock of lead safe housing units through housing initiatives.
• Seek funding as it becomes available to provide for testing, abatement, training, and educational
awareness.
How are the actions listed above related to the extent of lead poisoning and hazards?
The effectiveness of the programs operated by the City of Lubbock work through the City's housing
rehabilitation programs. These programs target some of the oldest housing stock in the city, which is
typically in the worst condition and most likely to have lead -based paint hazards. To the extent that
lead -based paint hazards are found in the older housing stock, these programs address the issue
directly.
How are the actions listed above integrated into housing policies and procedures?
The City of Lubbock currently performs visual inspections of housing units included in their housing
programs. Where defective paint is observed, surfaces are prepped and repainted, following abatement
guidelines provided by HUD. All rehabilitation and down -payment assistance programs include
provisions requiring that all painted surfaces be in good condition. Similar efforts are undertaken by the
Lubbock Housing Authority when bringing new Section 8 housing units into the program. Housing units
are inspected according to the provisions of Housing Quality Standard regulations, including lead -based
paint conditions.

How are the Jurisdiction poverty reducing goals, programs, and policies coordinated with this
affordable housing plan
The City works closely with a variety of non-profit service providers who work with homeless clients and
other households with low- and extremely -low incomes to assist them in improving their
situations. These providers provide programs that help locate and secure affordable housing. Some
even work to develop new affordable housing, often funding partially with City grant funds. The City
also operates programs to provide downpayment and closing cost assistance, as well as other programs
that help reduce poverty in the area.

AP-50 Geographic Distribution — 91.220(f)
Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-income and
minority concentration) where assistance will be directed
Much of the funding from the CDBG and HOME programs is available for use in any of the target
neighborhoods or citywide, depending on the specifics of the designated activities. Also, some funding
is available according to individual benefit rather than area benefit. It is, therefore, difficult to provide
reasonable projections of the distribution of funds by target area. The numbers below are strictly
estimates based on experience.

Table 58 - Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically
The proposed allocation of funds is based on federal funding requirements for each formula -allocated
grant. Areas of low to moderate -income concentration and certain areas of high minority concentration
are targeted. Areas of low homeownership and deteriorating housing conditions were also considered
in the targeting process. The City will target the majority of its resources in small geographic areas in
order to make a visible, measurable impact.
Discussion
The distribution of funds by target area is projected to be primarily citywide due to use of funds for
administrative, non-profit support, and individual benefit -oriented programmatic uses of the funds. The
remaining funds are estimated to be spread through smaller target areas.

Introduction
The Housing Authority of Lubbock provides services and housing as detailed in their PHA Plan. Below
are very short summaries of actions planned for the next year.
Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing
The Lubbock Housing Authority is adding 10 new units of housing for elderly households to expand the
inventory of units for seniors. The agency continually evaluates units as they are vacated for renovation
needs, often removing individual units from the inventory temporarily to allow for renovation
activities. The agency also will re-evaluate its payment standard to assure that subsidies are relevant in
the housing market.
Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and
participate in homeownership
Each year, the Lubbock Housng Authority encourages resident participating in resident councils, but has
little success maintaining ongoing interest at the individual development level. The organization -wide
resident council is maintained to assist in the planning process. The agency does not operate any
homeownership programs.
If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be
provided or other assistance
Not applicable.
Discussion
See the PHA Plan for details of actions mentioned above.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities — 91.220(i)
Introduction
Funding from the Emergency Solutions Grant Program is used to support non-profit homeless services
providers in Lubbock. These funds provide agencies with additional means to target specific activities. In
the coming program year, the following goals were identified for the ESG request for proposals.
(1) Street Outreach funds may be used for costs of providing essential services necessary to reach out to
unsheltered homeless people; connect with emergency shelter, housing, or critical services; and provide
urgent, non -facility -based care to unsheltered homeless people who are unwilling or unable to access
emergency shelter, housing, or an appropriate health facility.
(2) Emergency Shelter funds may be used for costs of providing essential services to homeless families
and to individuals in emergency shelters, renovating buildings to be used as emergency shelter for
homeless families and individuals, and operating emergency shelters.
(3) Homelessness Prevention funds may be used to provide housing relocation and stabilization services
and short and/or medium -term rental assistance necessary to prevent an individual or family from
moving into an emergency shelter or another place.
(4) Rapid Re -housing Assistance funds may be used to provide housing relocation and stabilization
services and short and/or medium term rental assistance as necessary to help a homeless individual or
family move as quickly as possible into permanent housing and achieve stability in that housing.
(5) Relocation and Stabilization Services funds may be used to pay financial assistance to housing
owners, utility companies and other third parties.
(6) HMIS funds may be used to pay the costs of contributing data to the HMIS designated by the
Continuum of Care for the area.
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness
including
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their
individual needs
The South Plains Homeless Consortium, the coalition of local homeless service agencies, conducts
annual surveys of homeless individuals, including unsheltered persons. These surveys serve to help focus
agency activities for the coming year, as well as provide documentation in response to HUD program
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 174
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
requirements. ESG funding includes street outreach activities.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
Homeless providers are focusing efforts on increasing the bed count for both emergency shelter and
transitional housing programs. These efforts are reflected in the proposed ESG funding.
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
Proposed funding for the ESG program include activities targeting improvements in the areas of rapid
rehousing, discharge planning, and homeless prevention.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely
low-income individuals and families and those who are: 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); or, receiving
assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services,
employment, education, or youth needs
Homeless prevention is a major focus of the participants in the South Plains Homeless Consortium. For
some agencies, homeless prevention is their sole purpose. Other agencies include homeless prevention
as a support program in conjunction with the provision of shelter and other support services.
Discussion
The participants in the South Plains Homeless Consortium work closely together to meet the needs of
homeless individuals and families through the continuum of services coordinated through the
partnership. The City participates in the planning efforts and provides a framework through the ESG

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing — 91.220(j)
Introduction:
No public policies were identified that have negative effects on affordable housing development.
Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve
as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning
ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the
return on residential investment
None.
Discussion:
The City of Lubbock has worked to reduce the effects of public policy on affordable housing
development over the past few years. While there are a number of market forces at work that make
affordable housing development difficult, such as construction and land costs, the impact of public
policy is not a major factor.
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 177
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
AP-85 Other Actions — 91.220(k)
Introduction:
The City currently provides a variety of services to the residents of Lubbock, some funded by CDBG,
HOME, and ESG, with private, State, and City funding bringing additional assets to bear on these
problems. Below are some of the actions currently performed by the City or under consideration for the
future.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs
The City will continue to look for new funding sources for programs to address underserved
needs. Funding is the major obstacle in providing the services needed to focus on the vast variety of
issues that prevent families from breaking out of poverty and from living in the best, most affordable
housing possible.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing
The City will continue to work to identify any city -owned parcels that might be suitable for affordable
housing development opportunities, work with developers to fund projects, support tax credit
applications, and manage programs to assist homeowners with maintenance and rehab needs.
Actions planned to reduce lead -based paint hazards
1. Continue to meet HUD lead -based paint abatement standards in housing rehabilitation
programs.
2. Identify additional funding to perform abatement on pre 1978 housing in the target census
tracts and perform abatement to reduce affected units by 10 percent during the five-year period
ending June 2019 based on current estimates of lead -based paint affected units.
3. Seek funding as it becomes available to provide testing and abatement of lead -based paint
hazards in single-family housing where young children are present.
4. Expand the stock of lead safe housing units through housing initiatives.
5. Seek funding as it becomes available to provide for testing, abatement, training, and educational
awareness.
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 178
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty -level families
The City will continue its efforts in conjunction with the South Plains Homeless Consortium and the
Housing Authority of Lubbock to reduce the number of poverty -level families through the development
of services needed to assist those families with educational opportunities, job growth, and life skills
training through the various social service agencies operating in the city.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
1. Work with non-profit organizations to address community needs and provide support to federal
and non-federal funding initiatives.
2. Work with private industry to address important issues that hamper housing and community
development efforts.
3. Identify opportunities to create private/public partnerships for project finance and development
to leverage federal funds.
4. Create networking opportunities through a housing roundtable that provides opportunities for
City staff to interact with all sectors of the housing industry.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
service agencies
The City will continue to coordinate planning activities with private housing providers and social service
agencies, including participation in South Plains Homeless Consortium meetings, development of the
Continuum of Care, and enumeration of point -in -time and homeless surveys. City staff will also
continue its participation in other coalitions and study groups as the opportunity arises.
Discussion:
The actions are primarily the continuation of what the City is currently doing in the various areas. No
major obstacles in the institutional structure have been identified that need to be addressed. The City is
also satisfied with its efforts to coordinate with private housing and social service agencies.

HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME)
Reference 24 CFR 91.220(I)(2)
1. A description of other forms of investment being used beyond those identified in Section 92.205 is
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 180
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
as follows:
The City of Lubbock utilizes other forms of investment as opportunities arise. In the past, projects
have utilized funding from the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs Community
Services Block Grant and Comprehensive Energy Assistance Program to supplement federal funding
sources. The City continually evaluates funding opportunities for applicability to community
development priorities and applies for such funding when appropriate.
2. A description of the guidelines that will be used for resale or recapture of HOME funds when used
for homebuyer activities as required in 92.254, is as follows:
<p style="margin: Oin Oin Opt; text -align: justify; tab-stops:.5in;"><font face="Times New Roman"
size="2">The City of Lubbock follows the regulations for resale and recapture. For the
Lease/Purchase Program the resale method is used. This is accomplished through a homeowner's
agreement. For the New Construction Program the recapture method is used. The city administers
this program and places a recapture clause in the loan agreements. These loans are serviced in
house. The recapture amount will be based on the net proceeds available from the sale up to but
not exceeding the entire amount of the HOME investment</font>. The complete guidelines are
attached to this document.</p>
3. A description of the guidelines for resale or recapture that ensures the affordability of units acquired
with HOME funds? See 24 CFR 92.254(a)(4) are as follows:
Resale requirements must ensure that if the housing does not continue to be the principal residence
of the family for the full period of affordability that the housing must be made available for
subsequent purchase only to a buyer whose family qualifies as a low-income family and will use the
property as their principal residence. The resale requirement must also ensure that the price at
resale provides the original HOME -assisted owner a fair return on investment (including the
homeowner's investment and any capital improvement as defined below) and ensure that the
housing will remain affordable to a reasonable range of low-income homebuyers. The period of
affordability is based on the total amount of HOME funds initially invested in the housing. Complete
details are attached to this document.
4. Plans for using HOME funds to refinance existing debt secured by multifamily housing that is
rehabilitated with HOME funds along with a description of the refinancing guidelines required that
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 181
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
will be used under 24 CFR 92.206(b), are as follows:
The City does not intend to use HOME funds to refinance existing debt secured by multifamily
housing that is being rehabilitated with HOME funds. In addition, the funds will not be used to
refinance multifamily loans made or insured by any federal program. The City is aware that HOME
funds cannot be used to refinance multifamily loans made or insured by any federal program,
including CDBG.
Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG)
Reference 91.220(I)(4)
1. Include written standards for providing ESG assistance (may include as attachment)
Currently funded agencies or those who have received prior funding from the Department of
Community Development (DCD) will also be evaluated on past performance in carrying out
programmatic activities and contractual compliance. Factors such as agency ability to meet service
delivery goals, timely expenditure of funds, timely reporting, accuracy of reporting, ability to meet
audit requirements, and other programmatic and fiscal contractual requirements will be considered.
These other factors will be considered in conjunction with the proposal score in developing an
overall recommendation for agency funding.
2. If the Continuum of Care has established centralized or coordinated assessment system that
meets HUD requirements, describe that centralized or coordinated assessment system.
Congress has directed HUD to improve the collection of data on the extent of homelessness locally
and nationally. Communities must collect an array of data including an unduplicated count of
homeless persons, analyze their patterns of the use of the McKinney-Vento and other assistance,
including information on how they enter and exit the homelessness assistance system and assess
the effectiveness of that assistance. Through the Federal Register Notice, the Emergency Solutions
Grants Program and Community Development Block Grants were made a part of this mandate.
Therefore, all proposed projects/organizations must provide written certification of their
participation in an existing HMIS.
3. Identify the process for making sub -awards and describe how the ESG allocation available to
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 182
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
private nonprofit organizations (including community and faith -based organizations).
The City of Lubbock expects to receive approximately $168,098 for the FY2014 Emergency Solutions
Grant (ESG) Program. These funds will be awarded to community -based, nonprofit organizations
providing emergency shelter and related services to the homeless, on a dollar -for -dollar match.
Emergency Solutions Grant funds may be used for operations and maintenance, homeless
prevention, essential support services and renovation/rehabilitation activities in connection with
emergency shelters for the homeless. It is a priority of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) and the City of Lubbock to work under a Continuum of Care approach to
homelessness to assist homeless individuals and families to obtain a decent living environment,
either through rental housing or home ownership. The Community Development Department
specifically seeks proposals to provide shelter and supportive services for the homeless. The
purpose of the Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Program is to: 1) Broaden existing emergency
shelter and homelessness prevention activities; 2) Emphasize Rapid Re -Housing; and, 3) Help people
quickly regain stability in permanent housing after experiencing a housing crisis and/or
homelessness; 4) Enhance alignment of ESG regulations with other HUD programs including CDBG,
HOME, and Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program; and, 5)Support more coordinated and effective
data collection, performance measurement, and program evaluation.
4. If the jurisdiction is unable to meet the homeless participation requirement in 24 CFR
576.405(a), the jurisdiction must specify its plan for reaching out to and consulting with
homeless or formerly homeless individuals in considering policies and funding decisions
regarding facilities and services funded under ESG.
The City requires non -profits participating in the ESG program to have homeless representatives on
their boards of directors.
5. Describe performance standards for evaluating ESG.
HUD has implemented a mandated system of reporting performance measurements in a precise and
timely manner. All recipients funded under this proposal must provide needed data to the city of
Lubbock in order to be reimbursed for eligible expenses. All of the activities funded must identify
one of the three performance measurements overarching objectives: 1) creating suitable living
environment (In general, this objective relates to activities that are designed to benefit
communities, families, or individuals by addressing issues in their living environment); 2) providing
decent affordable housing (This objective focuses on housing programs where the purpose is to
meet individual family or community needs and not programs where housing is an element of a
larger effort); 3) creating economic opportunities (This objective applies to the types of activities
related to economic development, commercial revitalization, or job creation). There are also three
Consolidated Plan LUBBOCK 183
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)
outcomes under each objective: (1) Availability/Accessibility, (2) Affordability, and (3) Sustainability.
Thus, the three objectives, each having three possible outcomes, will produce nine possible
outcome/objective statements within which to categorize grant activities, as follows:
Availability/Accessibility. This outcome category applies to activities that make services,
infrastructure, housing, or shelter available or accessible to low -and moderate -income people,
including persons with disabilities. In this category, accessibility does not refer only to physical
barriers, but also to making the affordable basics of daily living available and accessible to low -and
moderate -income people. Affordability. This outcome category applies to activities that provide
affordability in a variety of ways in the lives of low -and moderate -income people. It can include the
creation or maintenance of affordable housing, basic infrastructure hook-ups, or services such as
transportation or daycare. Sustainability: Promoting Livable or Viable Communities. This outcome
applies to projects where the activity or activities are aimed at improving communities or
neighborhoods, helping to make them livable or viable by providing benefits to persons or low -and
moderate -income people or by removing or eliminating slums or blighted areas, through multiple
activities or services that sustain communities or neighborhoods.
Discussion:
The City strives to meet all program specific requirements as detailed in the enabling legislation and
program guidelines. City staff work with subgrantees to ensure that these requirements are met and
oversees internal operations towards the same goal.
