CR-05 - Goals and Outcomes
Progress the jurisdiction has made in carrying out its strategic plan and its action plan. 91.520(a)
This could be an overview that includes major initiatives and highlights that were proposed and executed throughout the program year.
The 2022-2023 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) has been prepared to assist residents of the City of Palm Desert
(the City) and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in assessing the City’s use of federal grant funds to meet priority
housing and community needs identified in the City’s 2018–2022 Consolidated Plan. The CAPER for Program Year 2022-2023 (PY 2022-23) primarily
provides an overview of the City's accomplishments from July 1, 2022, th rough June 30, 2023, utilizing Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) funds.
The Consolidated Plan established the following goals:
• Provide decent housing: Help homeless persons obtain appropriate housing and assisting those at risk of homelessness; preserving the
City’s affordable housing stock; increasing the availability of affordable permanent housing for low- and moderate-income persons without
discrimination; increasing the supply of supportive housing.
• Provide a suitable living environment: Improve the safety and livability of neighborhoods; increasing access to quality facilities and
services; and reducing the isolation of income groups within an area through integration of low-income housing opportunities.
• Expand economic opportunities: Create jobs accessible to low- and moderate-income persons; make down payment and closing cost
assistance available for low- and moderate-income persons; promote long-term economic and social viability; empower low-income
persons to achieve self-sufficiency.
The PY 2022-23 reporting period is the fourth year of the City’s 2018-2022 Consolidated Plan cycle. The 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan outlined
an expenditure plan for the City’s $394,525 CDBG grant allocation. The Action Plan identified activities to be carried out during the reporting
period utilizing CDBG funds, including public facility improvements, public service grants, and program administration.
Additionally, during the PY 2021-22 reporting period, the City implemented activities to prevent, prepare for, or respond to local impacts of the
COVID-19 pandemic. Pursuant to the CARES Act of 2020, HUD allocated the City $851,374 CDBG-Coronavirus (CDBG-CV) funds in two rounds of
funding. HUD requires that 80 percent of CDBG-CV funds be spent in three years and 100 percent spent in six years. Facilitated by CDBG program

Table 2 – Table of assistance to racial and ethnic populations by source of funds
Narrative
According to the U.S. Census Bureau (2019 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates), most Palm
Desert residents are racially White – 82.5 percent. This same data source reports that 23.5 percent of the
City’s population is Hispanic/Latino. Based on the data from Table 2, approximately 83.3 percent of CDBG-
funded program participants are White, and a significant number of assisted individuals are
Hispanic/Latino (32.9 percent). Additionally, 46.8 percent of program beneficiaries report a household
income equal to or less than 30 percent of the County median income (defined by HUD as extremely low-
income). This data indicates that many program beneficiary households may be economically unstable
and seek services to help stabilize their financial situation.
Note: By default, Table 2 excludes multi-racial program beneficiaries in IDIS. IDIS also excludes CDBG-CV
program beneficiaries.

needs identified in the plan.
The City of Palm Desert does not have owned land; however, the Palm Desert Housing
Authority owns 15 communities throughout the City that provides 1,100 multi-family and senior
housing units of various size and character. To the extent that the Housing Successor Agency
has funds available, housing resources will be used to address the housing needs of very low
and low-income residents. Additionally, nonprofit partners leveraged CDBG resources with
other grant awards and private donations.

CR-25 - Homeless and Other Special Needs 91.220(d, e); 91.320(d, e); 91.520(c)
Evaluate the jurisdiction’s progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending
homelessness through:
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their
individual needs
The City is actively involved in multiple activities to address the needs of homeless persons, which include
coordination with the Continuum of Care. For example, the City is involved in regional coordination efforts
between stakeholders throughout the Coachella Valley and Riverside County. The City has historically
funded homelessness services coordinated regionally through the Coachella Valley Association of
Governments (CVAG). For years, the City contributed funds to CVAG for the operation of Roy’s Desert
Resource Center, which permanently closed in July 2017. Since then, CVAG has allocated its regional
financial commitments for other homelessness services. The City recently made another financial
commitment in the amount of $100,000 to CVAG to continue their CV Housing First program that focuses
on providing housing and services to the regions chronically homeless individuals. A summary of
accomplishments is available for reference at City Hall.
The City also operates a homelessness assistance program that includes a homeless resource hotline. The
program contracts with the Riverside University Health System to provide a Behavioral Health Specialists
in Palm Desert to focus on providing homelessness services. Please note the County of River side
coordinates the Continuum of Care as well.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
The City of Palm Desert did not utilize CDBG funds in the program year to address the emergency shelter
nor the transitional housing needs of homeless persons. The City supported the regional CoC and
Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funded sub-recipients that provide bridge housing for persons
experiencing homelessness.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely
low-income individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after being
discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities,
mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and
institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing,
health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs
The City utilized CDBG and CDBG-CV resources to provide food, COVID testing, and other support services
for seniors, the disabled, and children. These social safety net services assisted many individuals and
households avoid homelessness.
CAPER 12
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
The Riverside County CoC is responsible for implementing the regional discharge plan – the City supports
these efforts. The discharge plan aims to prevent local institutions from releasing individuals into
homelessness. Elements of the discharge plan include the following:
• Encourage the use of mainstream resources that are available to homeless individuals.
• Provide a comprehensive listing of Riverside County agencies, divisions, and departments that serve
homeless persons or that contract with agencies that serve homeless persons, emphasizing assisting
chronically homeless persons.
• Educate the community regarding the challenges faced by the homeless, including living with a
disability or living with extremely low-income benefits (such as SSI).
• Link individuals with disabilities to community housing that provides wrap-around services.
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
To help individuals experiencing homelessness transition into permanent housing, the Riverside CoC has
increased resources for rapid re-housing assistance. Rapid rehousing aims to place a household into
housing as quickly as possible and provides wrap-around supportive services. The Riverside CoC partners
with the County’s Economic Development Agency (EDA) to implement a regional rapid rehousing
program. This partnership has increased the number of homeless households that are rapidly re-
housing. The County CoC is also responsible for implementing the regional Homeless Coordinated Entry
System. This housing/service triage system prioritizes scarce resources to individuals experiencing
prolonged episodes of homelessness and that rank high in a vulnerability index. The City of Palm Desert
is a member of the Riverside CoC and supports these efforts.

CR-35 - Other Actions 91.220(j)-(k); 91.320(i)-(j)
Actions taken 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. 91.220 (j); 91.320 (i)
The City’s Consolidated Plan identifies a strategy to eliminate barriers to the provision of affordable
housing. The strategy addresses housing costs via incentives to develop, maintain, or improve affordable
housing in the jurisdiction. Public policies such as taxes, land use controls, zoning, building codes, fees,
and growth limits also impact the cost of housing.
The City continued to discuss with private developers the need to construct residential projects and
include a certain percentage of affordable housing units. With the economy struggling through the COVID-
19 pandemic, developers have been hesitant to construct projects that may limit their return on
investment. Consequently, no plans were submitted for projects with an affordable housing component;
however, the City will continue to encourage private developers to build affordable housing.
Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
The City continued to provide CDBG and City funding resources to assist households facing housing
insecurity, living in poverty, and persons experiencing homelessness. The City partnered with numerous
local nonprofit organizations to address a myriad of issues faced by underserved populations. During the
reporting period, the following services were provided to assist underserved residents:
• Senior services, including mental health counseling to assist seniors in coping with isolation and
depression resulting from stay-at-home directives
• Services for persons with disabilities
• Educational and emotional support services for youths
• COVID-19 testing and referral service, particularly for individuals with autoimmune issues
• Foodbank services to assist lower-income households experiencing the financial hardships
• Emergency rental assistance for households experiencing the financial impacts of the COVID-19
pandemic
• Emergency shelter and support services for individuals experiencing homelessness
• Fair housing services to address and resolve tenants/landlord issues, address allegations of fair
housing law violations, and navigate issues related to the COVID-19 eviction/foreclosure moratorium
Actions taken to reduce lead-based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
CAPER 15
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
The City did not use CDBG program resources to undertake housing activities that triggered HUD’s lead-
based paint hazards compliance. However, as indicated in the Consolidated Plan, the City referred
residents with Lead-Based Paint Hazards concerns to Riverside County Health Services Lead Hazard
Reduction Section Department. Additionally, the City distributed brochures regarding Lead-Based Paint
Hazards through the Housing Successor Agency and the City’s Building and Safety Department to
contractors, homeowners, and renters. Nonprofit partners, such as the Fair Housing Council, also
distribute the Lead-based Paint Hazards brochures to educate the public regarding lead-based paint
hazards.
Actions taken to reduce the number of poverty-level families. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
According to the U. S. Census Bureau, approximately 13.1 percent of Palm Desert residents live in
poverty. This figure includes 18.8 percent of children age 18 and younger and 8.6 percent of residents
age 65 and older. As previously reported, over 48 percent of all CDBG/CDBG-CV program beneficiaries
have extremely low income – over 71 percent of beneficiaries had very low-income (50 percent of the
county median income). During the reporting period, the City allocated significant CDBG and CDBG-CV
resources to assist lower-income Palm Desert residents, especially those with extremely low and very low-
income. Services provided include a food bank, counseling, medical services and referrals, and rental
assistance to prevent the loss of shelter.
Actions taken to develop institutional structure. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
The City continues to partner with local government entities, service providers, and other
agencies/organizations tasked with similar goals and objectives to improve the quality and quantity of
services provided to the homeless and lower-income persons. Working with various County of Riverside
departments and the many local nonprofits has created a cohesive working relationship to address Palm
Desert's needs and the needs of the greater Coachella Valley. These collaborative actions have address
gaps in the regional institutional structure.
As previously outlined, the City has established several partnerships with nonprofits, the regional CoC,
and county departments to address the needs of the City’s lower-income residents. For example, the City
continued to work with the Riverside County Department of Mental Health and the Department of Social
Services to address homelessness and mental health issues.
Actions taken to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service
CAPER 16
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
agencies. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
The City continued efforts to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
services agencies during the reporting period. These efforts include the following:
• The City is a member of the CVAG Homeless Committee, which has a membership of all Coachella Valley
cities, County of Riverside Supervisor’s office, County of Riverside departments, Desert Health Care
District, and various nonprofit organizations.
• The City is a member of the Riverside County CoC, including various local jurisdictions, the County,
nonprofits, and other interested individuals and organizations.
• The City typically conducts an annual Community Meeting, publishes meeting information in the Desert
Sun newspaper, and posts information on the City website. These efforts were postponed due to the
COVID-19 pandemic.
• The City typically conducts seminars on crime-free multi-family housing for landlords. These efforts were
postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
• The City provides flyers and materials directing residents to the regional social services 211 system and
other local service providers.
• The City provides meeting facilities for fair housing informational meetings for landlords who have units
available for lower-income households.
• The City contracts with the Fair Housing Council of Riverside County, which provides workshops to
educate and inform residents and property owners/managers about fair housing laws. In-person
workshops were postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic; however, workshops were available online.
Identify actions taken to overcome the effects of any impediments identified in the
jurisdictions analysis of impediments to fair housing choice. 91.520(a)
Consolidated Plan regulations require CDBG recipients to (1) examine and attempt to alleviate housing
discrimination within their jurisdiction; (2) promote fair housing choice for all persons; (3) provide
opportunities for all persons to reside in any given housing development, regardless of race, color,
religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin; (4) promote housing that is accessible to and
usable by persons with disabilities; and (5) comply with the non-discrimination requirements of the Fair
Housing Act. The City hired Castaneda and Associates to complete its Analysis of Impediments to Fair
Housing Choice and Fair Housing Action Plan (AI). The following action steps were identified in the AI:
• Publish information on the City’s website describing reasonable accommodation procedures. The City’s
“Americans with Disabilities Act and the City” web page links several related documents, including the
City’s procedures for requesting accommodations.
• Continue to support the efforts of the private and nonprofit sectors to address the needs of the
CAPER 17
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
residents. The City contracted with the Fair Housing Council of Riverside County to provide fair housing
outreach, education, and enforcement services.
• Utilize the Housing Element site inventory in making future location decisions regarding the sites suitable
for affordable housing. The current 2022-2029 Housing Element contain an inventory of vacant land
