Summary

The City approved its Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) covering July 1, 2023–June 30, 2024, summarizing CDBG and HOME expenditures and projects (housing rehab, public services, transitional shelter support); staff said the CAPER was posted for 15 days with no written public comments.

Daly City — The Daly City Council unanimously approved the city’s Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) for the 2023–24 HUD program year on Sept. 9, 2024, a required report summarizing Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME program activity.

City staff member Lynell presented the CAPER, explaining the report covers the period from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024, summarizes spending of CDBG and HOME dollars, and documents accomplishments such as housing rehabilitation and minor home repair, public services (including Project Read), support for a transitional shelter operated by LifeMoves, and subsidized childcare through Peninsula Family Services.

Lynell said the CAPER had been posted for the required 15-day public review period and that no written comments were received. Council members asked about the annual variability of CDBG allocations and whether the city can take steps to increase funding; staff explained HUD uses a formula tied to poverty rates and census data and that amounts change year to year. Staff also described the competitive NOFA/RFP process for nonprofit applicants, typically beginning in December for the city’s two‑year CDBG funding cycle.

Council moved and approved the CAPER during the consent agenda discussion. The approval allows staff to file the CAPER with HUD and continue the city’s CDBG/HOME program cycle and associated NOFA process.

The council did not change funding priorities during the meeting; councilmembers thanked staff for the report and for work on the CDBG committee.
