BAYTOWN Adoption Date: .luly 14,2011 I. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN OVERVIEW The Community Development Block Grant(CDBG)Program has operated since 1974 to provide local governments with the resources necessary to meet the needs of low and moderate-income residents. Annually, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) issues entitlements to local governments, including states, and allows those units of government Flexibility to develop programs that meet the unique needs of their community. The City of Baytown desires citizen participation in the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, but more importantly, citizen participation is necessary in order for the needs of the citizens of Baytown to be determined; priorities that address those needs be set; and the input of citizens is incorporated in the development of each yearly application to HUD. According to Part 24 of the Code of Federal Regulation, section 91.100, participation by citizens in the CDBG Program is a requirement of HUD. The City of Baytown ("City") receives an annual CDBG entitlement from HUD and created this Citizen Participation Plan ("Plan") to work as an integral part of the planning and implementation process for the CDBG Program. This plan ensures that all citizens, businesses, non-profits and other interested parties have a vehicle by which they can become involved in how federal funds are spent on the local level. In order to remain attuned to the needs of the community, this Citizen Participation Plan will be updated every five years in conjunction with the CDBG Consolidated Plan. Encouraging Citizen Participation The City of Baytown makes every effort to involve citizens, especially the low to moderate income citizens and those residing in areas with slum and/or blighted conditions,to participate in every step of the funding process. In addition to citizens, local businesses, non-profit agencies and the local Housing Authority are strongly encouraged to participate. Citizen participation is encouraged during the planning, implementation and assessment of the programs and projects undertaken by the City. Staff is available throughout the year to discuss programs and to receive citizen comments. Reasonable advance notice is afforded through the City's website (www.bavtown.ore) and the local newspaper of general circulation, the Baytown Sun when citizen comments are actively being solicited. Citizen participation may be actively solicited for specific purposes, such as: • During the development of local funding priorities found in the five year Consolidated Plan; • During the development of funding strategies; • During the development of the annual Action Plan and budget; • During requests for substantial amendments to the Consolidated Plan and/or annual Action Plan; and During the formulation of the Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report(CAPER). t II. CONSOLIDATED PLAN Every fifth year, the City prepares a 5-year Consolidated Plan which outlines a general list of projects to be undertaken during the next five-year period. The City must submit this 5-Year Consolidated Plan to HUD in order to receive the annual CDBG entitlement grant. The Consolidated Plan describes the housing and community development needs and priorities as well as a 5-year strategy for addressing those needs. This document is specifically designed to: • Promote citizen participation in the development of local priority needs and objectives by providing comprehensive information on the jurisdiction that is easy to understand; • Summarize statutory requirements in such a manner as to achieve the purpose of these requirements in a comprehensive way; • Promote the development of annual Action Plans that provide a basis for assessing performance; and • Encourage consultation with public and private agencies, including those outside the jurisdiction, to identify shared needs and solutions. The Community Development Advisory Committee, using the guidance of this Citizen Participation Plan establishes the goals set forth in the Consolidated Plan. Exhibit "A" shows a list of the 2010-14 funding priorities. III. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE (CDAC) The CDAC was created by the City Council of the City of Baytown to ensure citizen participation in the planning, implementation, and operation of the Community Development Program. Membership The CDAC consists of nine members and one youth member (between the ages of 14-18) appointed by the City Council. Six of the committee members are appointed to represent the City Council district in which they live.The youth member and the remaining three members are selected from the city at-large. Members of specific minority groups shall at least be represented in proportion to such citywide percentage representation. Each fiscal year, the CDAC chooses a Chairman and Vice-Chairman by majority vote to represent the committee as needed. Term CDAC members are appointed for two-year, unlimited terms. They are reappointed at the pleasure of City Council at the end of their term. Five members are appointed on odd years and 2 four are appointed on the even years allowing for continuity of the committee. Staff requests City Council to fill any vacancies in compliance with the membership composition requirements. Duties It is the specific duty of the CDAC to implement this Citizen Participation Plan by holding a series of annual public hearings and meetings to solicit citizen input on community needs, goals, objectives, programs or projects for low to moderate income individuals. The CDAC is the leader in establishing goals for CDBG funds and ensuring those goals are followed in the implementation of funded programs. The CDAC is responsible for gaining community input in order to formulate the Consolidated Plan. During the drafting of the Consolidated Plan, community surveys are solicited and the CDAC holds a series of public hearings to ask the community about specific needs that may be addressed using CDBG. Once input is gained from the community and area stakeholders, CDAC develops a priority of funding needs. Throughout the next five years, these needs are addressed as funding allows. The CDAC reviews submitted funding applications for CDBG funds and holds public hearings to listen to funding requests. Following these hearings, the CDAC prepares a recommendation for the annual budget of CDBG funds. When the CDAC submits the funding recommendation to City Council, it includes a list of possible projects to be funded. Once the recommendation is adopted by City Council and programs are funded, the CDAC is updated on the progress of the programs. CDAC Meetings and Public Hearing Schedule November/December: The CDAC meets to discuss the Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report.(CAPER) which is a year end report documenting the performance of each activity undertaken with CDBG funding. March/April: The CDAC meets to discuss the Request for Proposal process and to commemorate National Community Development Week. During National Community Development Week, the CDAC receives an update on all currently funded programs. During this time, the CDAC also receives updates on and has a chance to visit some projects funded by CDBG in the past, activities currently being funded by CDBG and is informed of opportunities for future funding. Ma, /J�e_The CDAC holds a series of public hearings regarding the Requests for Proposals. Each applicant who is seeking CDBG funding is invited to speak with the CDAC. CDAC meets to discuss and recommend a budget for the upcoming program year.The recommended budget is presented to City Council in June at a Work Session. The budget is adopted by City Council at a regularly scheduled council meeting in July of each year. 3 IV. PUBLIC HEARINGS Public hearings are formal meetings wherein the Community Development Division or the CDAC gather to hear the public's views and concerns about a particular action or proposal. The City is required to consider such comments when evaluating its actions. All citizens of Baytown will be affected, directly or indirectly, by Community Development activities and are encouraged to participate in the planning and implementation of the activities to be undertaken with the CDBG funds. Persons interested in participating, or learning more about the CDBG Program, are urged to attend CDAC meetings, attend public hearings or contact the Community Development Division, located at 2401 Market Street in Baytown. Purpose of Public Hearings HUD requires the City to hold public hearings so that the public can express its views and so that the City can respond to questions and proposals for the use of CDBG funds. According to HUD, public hearings are to be held at all stages of the process, including the development of needs, the review of proposed activities and review of program performance. The City holds at least three (3) public hearings during the annual CDBG budget development/Action Plan process. Public hearings are also held during the 5-year Consolidated Planning process, CAPER process and during times of document amendments, programs and/or activities. If comments are received during these public hearings, a summary of all public comments are submitted to HUD along with the appropriate document. Location of Public Hearings Public hearings and meetings are usually held at City Hall, 2401 Market Street or at the Baytown Community Center, 2407 Market Street. These locations are well-known and accessible to all residents. Adequate space is provided to accommodate large resident groups. The meeting places are accessible to the disabled and every effort is made to ensure that there are no physical barriers to attendance. Additionally, these locations are on the transit bus route, which makes it further accessible to low-moderate income citizens interested in attending the meetings. The CDAC may elect, and is encouraged to hold some public hearings and meetings in other neighborhoods that may be affected by the activities of the community development program. Occasionally, public hearings will be held at other venues where at least 5 1% of the residents in the area are low to moderate income (CDBG target areas). Examples of other venues include recreation buildings,churches and public schools in the area. 4 Notification of Public Hearings Notices of all public hearings held by the Community Development Division and the CDAC shall be placed in the Baytown Sun at least five (5) days prior to each hearing. Notices are also posted by the City Clerk at City Hall at least 72 hours in advance of the public hearing. In addition, the notice will include an agenda that lists all items to be considered by the committee. City Council meetings at which the development, adoption or submission of each document is to be discussed or considered shall also be convened in the aforementioned manner. Approximately two weeks prior to the first public hearing for an annual Action Plan, a notice will be published in the Baytown Sun and placed on the City's website. This notice will advise citizens that planning for the use of CDBG funds is underway for the next program year. The notice will include amount of funds expected to be available, the types of activities that are eligible for funding and other important program requirements. Occasionally, public hearing notices will be printed in Spanish and posted at gathering places throughout the CDBG target areas. Exhibit "B" is an example of a Community Development public hearing notice. Citizen Participation at Public Hearings During the CDBG public hearings, the public is encouraged to communicate their needs, express preferences in regard to proposed activities, or present comments to be considered by the Community Development Division. Citizens may elect to participate at the public hearing or submit a written comment outlining their concerns and/or support of a specific project. Citizen input from public hearings, written comments and suggestions will be incorporated into the applicable document(s)and submitted to HUD for review. Spanish translation shall be provided at all public hearings and meetings when a large number of those in attendance are Spanish speaking, or when such services are requested prior to the meeting. Y ° Y> u x V. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION AND COMMENTS " The City encourages all interested citizens or groups to present opinions or proposals to the City for consideration under the CDBG program. Citizens may become involved by: • Attending CDBG public hearings and presenting ideas, suggestions,and proposals; • Attending regular meetings of the CDAC; • Contacting the Community Development Division for discussion, or assistance with preparation of complaints, suggestions, or proposals; • Contacting individual CDAC members to discuss any part of the program;or • Pursuing other means of participation that are not mentioned but may be available. 5 The City and CDAC may also seek public comments, advertise for specific events or solicit public participation for certain programs. At that time, information will be distributed to local organizations and businesses for posting. For example, postings asking for comments or participation regarding housing programs will be distributed to the Baytown Housing Authority, placed at neighborhood parks, schools and churches. Additionally, these types of postings will be sent to businesses serving the area that may be affected by the activity. When seeking public comments from a specific segment of the population or area, the City will make every effort to distribute postings, announcements and flyers to areas that will directly reach the intended audience. Another mechanism to seek public comments is to disseminate announcements though the Bay Area Resource Association (BARA). BARA consists of local non-profits committed to serving the needs of low-moderate income individuals. Annually, the City solicits citizen participation in the preparation of various documents. Invitations to submit comments will be included with all public hearing notices. The public hearing notice will also specify how to submit a comment and the deadline for submitting such comments. Written comments relating to CDBG may be submitted to the Community Development Division at any time during normal business hours. Additionally, public comments may be submitted in person to the Community Development Division located at 2401 Market Street, Baytown,TX 77520, or via email at CDBG(Cbbaytown.org. The public may also choose to attend any CDBG-related public meeting or hearing in order to submit public comments. VI. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE The City is committed to providing technical assistance to the community so that citizens can become knowledgeable about the CDBG program. As awareness of the CDBG Program increases, it is the hope of the City that citizens will contribute ideas to solving some of the community's needs. The Community Development Division staff is available week days from 8:00 a.m.to 5:00 p.m.excluding holidays to: • Provide technical assistance in preparing proposals to benefit low and moderate-income groups. • Explain CDBG program requirements. • Explain the requirements/benefits of all funded activities. • Discuss proposed and ongoing community development activities. • Receive and investigate complaints relating to the CDBG Program.

At the workshops, attendees are given a brief overview of the CDBG Program and the City's Request for Proposal and budget process. Occasionally, special topics such as "grant writing" are presented. During the workshops, Community Development staff is available to provide one-on-one assistance in the development of proposals and ideas for funding. 6 Technical assistance in understanding the various program requirements or any other substantive matter relating to the program is available from staff during normal business hours.

X. AMENDMENTS AND/OR RE-ALLOCATING FUNDS HUD allows the City of Baytown the ability to amend the 5-year Consolidated Plan, the Annual Action Plan and the Citizen Participation Plan. When the City elects not to carry out an activity that was previously described and approved by HUD; to substantially change the purpose, scope, location or beneficiaries of an activity; or add a new activity an amendment must be submitted to HUD. In those instances,the City will use the "25%rule" in determining when an amendment is substantial or minor. All amendments, substantial or minor, will be included in the CAPER. Substantial Amendments If more than 25% of the activity changes from its original purpose, then the amendment is considered a substantial amendment. Substantial changes to the Consolidated Plan and/or Annual Action Plan may include, but are not limited to the following: • Any transfer of funds over 25% of the total grant allocation for the fiscal year in which the activity was funded; • Cancellation of a planned activity; • Addition of a new activity not previously proposed for public review; • Change in the primary purpose or scope of an activity, such as a change in intended beneficiaries or organizational support; or • Any increase or decrease in a proposed award that is over 25% of the total allocation for the fiscal year. The City will provide the public with a period of not less than thirty (30) days to comment on any substantial amendment before the amendment is implemented. Notices are provided to the public through the Baytown Sun and through the City's website. Exhibit"B" is an example of a Community Development substantial amendment public notice. The substantial amendment is presented to CDAC for their approval and to recommend to City Council for approval. Once the City Council approves,the substantial amendment is submitted to HUD. Within 45 days, HUD responds then the funds are transferred to the approved program. Minor Amendments Other changes to the Consolidated Plan or Annual Action Plan that do not meet the level of a substantial amendment are considered a minor amendment. For example, an amendment to decrease one funded program by $1,000 and increase another program will be considered a minor amendment. Minor amendments are presented to the CDAC for approval but do not require a City Council action. Minor amendments are posted in the Baytown Sun and on the City's website for public comment for at least fifteen (15) days. Minor amendments are reviewed, considered and approved by the 8 CDAC at their publicly, posted meetings. Public comments are solicited and the CDAC votes on the amendment(s). Minor amendments are submitted to HUD as part of the year-end CAPER. Emergency Amendments Occasionally, as in the case of natural disasters, such as a hurricane, it becomes necessary for the City of Baytown to request a substantial amendment to the Action Plan or Consolidated Plan. During times of disaster, the City may request, and HUD may approve a waiver or reduction in the amount of days required for public notice and/or public comment. If approved by HUD, the City will follow HUD's direction with no further notice to the public. Emergency amendments require the signature of the City Manager or his/her designee. If approved, activities undertaken as a result of emergency amendments will comply with the City's purchasing and contract procurement procedures during the course of the disaster. Re-Allocating Funds If a funded program is not utilizing or will not utilize all of the awarded CDBG dollars, the unused funds can be re-allocated to a new or existing project. Amending the Citizen Participation Plan If at any time, it becomes necessary to amend this Citizen Participation Plan, the City will provide public notice in the Baytown Sun and on the City's website. The City will provide the public with a period of not less than fifteen (15) days to review and comment on the changes. Changes to this Citizen Participation Plan will be approved by the CDAC and by the Baytown City Council prior to submission to HUD. Changes to the Citizen Participation plan will follow this process regardless of the scope of the change;substantial changes and minor changes will follow the same process. IX. ANTI-DISPLACEMENT AND RELOCATION Whenever Federal funds, such as CDBG are used for projects involving acquisition, rehabilitation or demolition of real property, a Federal law known as the Uniform Relocation Act (URA) may apply. The purpose of the URA is to provide uniform, fair and equitable treatment of persons whose real property is acquired or persons displaced as a result of a CDBG-funded project or activity. During the preparation of the Citizen Participation Plan, HUD requires entitlement communities to review all CDBG funded programs to ensure no person is involuntarily removed or displaced from their residential dwelling without providing proper remedies to the household. 9 The City of Baytown's Community Development programs are designed in a way as to eliminate or minimize the occurrence of displacement. Programs requiring extensive repairs to owner- occupied residential structures are voluntary. As part of the housing programs, participants may relocate for convenience or necessity depending on the scope of work for the project. In such cases, the financial responsibility for relocation is placed on the homeowner who is requesting services. Each program guidelines and associated documents specifies that the programs are voluntary and relocation funding is not included. The City of Baytown does not intentionally displace persons nor provides financial or other relocation assistance. VIII. COMPLAINT PROCEDURE Complaints about the CDBG program may be made verbally or in writing. Any written complaint made to the City of Baytown about the CDBG program that deals with preparation of the any plans, selection of projects, citizen participation opportunities or the effectiveness/appropriateness of on-going programs or projects shall be answered with a written response within fifteen (15) working days of the date upon which the complaint was received.

The goal of the Program is to promote water safety, along with rewarding students for achieving academic success. CIS works with high risk students to overcome and avoid situations that hamper their development and success. As an incentive to meeting certain academic and behavioral benchmarks, students will be given the opportunity to earn passes to the Pirates Bay Water Park. CDBG funds are designed to provide decent housing, a suitable living environment and expanded economic opportunities principally for persons of low and moderate income. To achieve these goals, the CDBG regulations set forth eligible activities and the national objectives that each activity must meet. The Program will satisfy CDBG requirements by providing recreational activities to low and moderate income members of the community. On December 7, 2010, the Community Development Advisory Committee (CDAC) is scheduled to consider a recommendation for the Substantial Amendment to fund the Program. The City Council of the City of Baytown is scheduled to consider and approve the Substantial Amendment on January 13, 2011. The Substantial Amendment will subsequently be submitted to HUD on or before January 14, 2011. This notice is provided to inform the public of the proposed amendment. PROJECTED USE OF FUNDS Project: Communities in Schools Making A+Splash Program Location: Communities in Schools, 607 W. Baker Road,Baytown, TX 77521 Description:The City of Baytown will grant up to 244 eligible participants with one-day passes and up to 12 youth with season passes to Pirates Bay Water Park. The Program will also provide a water safety course. Fundins: $5,000 PUBLIC COMMENTS All interested agencies, groups, and persons wishing to comment on the projected use of funds and the Amendment are invited to submit written comments for consideration to City of Baytown, Planning & Development Services, 2401 Market Street, Baytown, Texas 77520, on or before January 6, 2011, by 5:00 p.m. All such comments so received will be considered and incorporated in the Substantial Amendment.
