Summary
Council adopted the 20262030 Community Development Block Grant consolidated plan and the 2026 annual action plan (resolutions 26-6 and 26-7), accepting HUDs allocation and proposing major investments in motel rehabilitation, supportive services, and administration.
The West Sacramento City Council adopted its 20262030 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) consolidated plan and the 2026 annual action plan after a public hearing and staff presentation. Isaiah Alford, associate community investment planner, summarized outreach and needs-assessment results and the citys proposed program allocations.
Alford told the council that HUD notified the city of a 2026 entitlement allocation of $517,683 plus about $30,000 in program income, totaling roughly $547,683 available for projects. Based on that funding, staff proposed up to $366,495 to support rehabilitation of city-owned motel properties used in the homeless emergency housing program (the Westwood, El Tejon, and Pickwick motels), $77,652 for case management and supportive services, and $103,536 for administration, reporting and fair-housing activities.
Alford framed the five goals of the consolidated plan: supportive services for people experiencing homelessness; expanding low-barrier housing; reducing housing discrimination and evictions; supporting affordable housing opportunities; and supporting housing stability for people experiencing homelessness. Staff described significant outreach efforts, translation of materials into Spanish and Russian, and coordination with peer agencies.
The council closed the hearing and adopted resolutions 26-6 (consolidated plan) and 26-7 (annual action plan) following staffs recommendation. No public commenters requested to speak on this item at the hearing.
