The 2025-2026 Action Plan (Action Plan) is the third annual implementation plan of the Five-Year 2023-2028 Housing and Community Development Consolidated Plan (Consolidated Plan) for the Los Angeles Urban County. The Consolidated Plan describes the housing and community development needs, as well as activities to address those needs through the Los Angeles Urban County Program, as defined and funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). As required by HUD, the Consolidated Plan brings together, in one (1) consolidated submission, the planning and application aspects of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Programs. The Los Angeles Urban County Program’s geographic area encompasses 47 participating cities and the Los Angeles County’s unincorporated areas. Project descriptions, resources to be utilized, and proposed accomplishments for the 2025-2026 Fiscal Year (July 1, 2025 - June 30, 2026) are delineated in the Action Plan.

Furthermore, as per 24 CFR 570.200(h), 24 CFR Part 92.212, and 2 CFR 200.458, the public is hereby notified that under certain conditions, the Los Angeles County (County) and/or its subrecipients may incur costs associated with the CDBG, HOME, and ESG activities identified and described in the 2025-2026 Action Plan prior to the effective date of its grant agreement with HUD. The total amount of any pre-award costs incurred will not exceed 25% of the amount of the County’s anticipated 2025-2026 CDBG allocation. Costs related to the HOME program may not exceed 25% of the County’s current program amount. Costs related to the ESG program will comply with the regulatory requirements as outlined in 24 CFR 576. Citizens are advised that such pre-award costs will have no effect on future grants and will be in compliance with all the regulations that govern the CDBG, HOME, and ESG Programs as stated in 24 Part 570, 24 CFR 92, and 24 CFR Part 576, respectively as well as the Environmental Review Procedures state in 24 Part 58. Activities that may incur pre-award costs include CDBG public service, program administration, economic development, infrastructure, and housing activity costs as well as HOME and ESG administration and project costs.
