Executive Summary  
AP-05 Executive Summary - 91.200(c), 91.220(b) 
1. 
Introduction 
The City of Chandler has prepared its Annual Action Plan (AAP) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2022-2023 that details 
the available resources and activities related to the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) 
program. The City of Chandler receives an annual entitlement allocation of CDBG funds from the United 
States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The City of Chandler also receives HOME 
Investment Partnerships funds (HOME) from Maricopa County, which is the “lead agency” for the 
Maricopa County HOME Consortium (HOME Consortium). The City of Chandler is a participating 
member of the HOME Consortium, and receives an annual allocation of HOME funds. Chandler HOME-
funded activities are included in Maricopa County’s Annual Action Plan. These programs represent 
affordable housing and community development investments in decent, safe, and affordable housing, 
suitable living environment, and expanded economic opportunities. 
The Annual Action Plan defines one-year activities for FY 2022-2023 in relationship to the five-year goals 
and objectives of the City's 2020-2025 Consolidated Plan. In order to receive these federal funds, the 
City of Chandler is required to submit a Five-Year Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan for HUD 
approval. The Consolidated Plan contains a strategic plan for addressing affordable housing, community 
development, supportive housing, and homeless needs within the Chandler community, and a specific 
one-year action plan for the use of these HUD Resources. The Consolidated Plan contains priorities, 
goals, performance outcome objectives, and implementation strategies for each of the Plan’s elements. 
The Annual Action Plan is a one-year plan that describes the activities that will be conducted to address 
the needs described in the Consolidated Plan. The FY 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan is the third year of 
the current Five-Year Consolidated Plan. 
HUD has not released the FY 2022-2023 annual allocation information to Grantees. The funding 
recommendations for FY 2022-2033 are based on the prior year allocations from HUD. Contingency 
plans were also developed in the event there is an increase or decrease in the HUD allocation in FY 
2022-2023 compared to the prior year.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2022) 
The goal of the CDBG program is to develop viable communities by providing decent housing and a 
suitable living environment, and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons with low 
and moderate income. Funds support a wide range of community development activities directed 
toward revitalizing neighborhoods, economic development, and providing improved community 
facilities and services. These goals are further explained as follows: 
 
Providing decent housing means helping persons experiencing homelessness obtain appropriate 
housing and assisting those at-risk of homelessness; preserving the affordable housing stock; 
increasing availability of permanent housing that is affordable to individuals with low and 
moderate income without discrimination; and increasing the supply of supportive housing. 
 
Providing a suitable living environment entails improving the safety and livability of 
neighborhoods; increasing access to quality facilities and services; and increasing housing 
opportunities for individuals with low income. 
 
Expanding economic opportunities involves creating jobs that are accessible to individuals with 
low and moderate income; making down payment and closing cost assistance available for 
persons with low and moderate income; promoting long-term economic and social viability; and 
empowering persons with low income to achieve self-sufficiency.

Summary from citizen participation section of plan. 
Throughout the development of the City of Chandler's Annual Action Plan for Fiscal Year 2022-2023, the 
City provided several opportunities for public input and comment. The City conducted two public 
hearings during public meetings of the Housing and Human Services Commission; one was held on 
February 9, 2022 prior to the development of the Annual Action Plan, and a second public hearing was 
held on April 6, 2022 to solicit comments after the development of the draft Annual Action Plan. As

reasonable accommodations for a disability. In addition to commenting at the public hearing, citizens 
were invited to submit written comments to the Neighborhood Resources Department by mail, phone

Introduction 
The City of Chandler consulted with key stakeholders and citizens regarding affordable housing, housing 
and non-housing community development needs, supportive housing, and homeless needs in 
formulating Chandler’s 2019 Community Needs Assessment (CAN). The 2019 CNA served as a guide in 
developing goals and objectives for the 2020-2025 Consolidated Plan and planned activities for the 
Annual Action Plan process. For the PY 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan, the City consulted with the 
Maricopa Association of Government, Maricopa Regional Continuum of Care, and Maricopa County 
HOME Consortium, various City of Chandler departments, Housing and Human Services Commission and 
community volunteers, represented by Chandler residents who are leaders from a multitude of 
industries and perspectives including but not limited to education, behavioral health, public housing, 
nonprofit, and private and public business entities. The City held a combination of public meetings, 
public hearings, and stakeholder meetings that were announced through the use of newspaper 
advertisements, website announcements, social media posts, and public notices.

faith and community-based organizations, nonprofit and service agencies, health care providers,

Summary of citizen participation process/Efforts made to broaden citizen participation
Summarize citizen participation process and how it impacted goal-setting
Throughout the development of the City of Chandler’s Annual Action Plan for Program Year 2022-2023, the City provided several opportunities 
for public input and comment. The City held two public hearings to discuss available resources and community needs and priorities - one with 
the HHSC on February 9, 2022 and a second with the HHSC on April 6, 2022. The public was invited to attend in person or with the option to join 
virtually for each of the two public hearings due to the coronavirus pandemic.  City staff also conducted a virtual public meeting and application 
workshop on October 20, 2021. The City received applications for both HUD-funded and General Fund activities, making it clear those activities 
for the community that were most important and workable during the coming year.  
The City held a public comment period on the draft Annual Action Plan from March 28, 2022 to April 29, 2022, and the draft was also available 
for review at the Neighborhood Resources Department or online at https://www.chandleraz.gov/residents/neighborhood-
resources/community-development/plans-and-reports. A summary of public comments received are included in Appendix A and attached to the 
Annual Action Plan.

Expected Resources 
AP-15 Expected Resources - 91.420(b), 91.220(c)(1,2) 
Introduction 
The City of Chandler receives Community Development Block Grant funding from the United States Department of Housing and Urban 
Development (HUD) as an ‘entitlement community’ and is the CDBG lead agency; funds are received based on an annual formula. 
The City also receives HUD HOME funding as a member of the Maricopa County HOME Consortium (HOME Consortium). The HOME Consortium 
is a legal entity created through an intergovernmental agreement between Maricopa County, the Cities of Avondale, Chandler, Glendale, Peoria, 
Scottsdale, Surprise, Tempe and the Town of Gilbert. Each HOME Consortium member receives a pro rata share of funds and uses them to meet 
the needs of their community. The County’s Five-Year Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plans also include the housing needs and activities of 
Chandler. 
Numerous local resources leverage HUD funding to address the needs of Chandler residents. Local funds are allocated through an annual grant 
process. 

Social Services Fund. Each fiscal year, the City allocates funding to nonprofit agencies that provide supportive public services to Chandler
residents with low and moderate income.

Acts of Kindness Program. The Acts of Kindness (AOK) donation program was developed in July 2000 to give residents an opportunity to
voluntarily contribute $1 with their utility payment each month. AOK supports public service programs that provide basic needs such as
food, shelter, clothing, medical services and transportation to Chandler residents with low and moderate income.

Youth Enhancement Program. The Youth Enhancement Program supports the development and operation of programs for youth
activities, scholarships, sports activities, mentoring, intervention and learning programs.

Veteran’s Transportation. The Veteran’s Transportation Program funds agencies that provide transportation to service centers and other
locales for Veterans with low income.
Additional local funds are used to leverage funding by supporting staff and resources within the Neighborhood Resources Department including

Annual Action Plan
2022 
39
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2022) 
services to individuals experiencing homelessness. 
Federal funds, including those administered by the State of Arizona such as the Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program and National Housing 
Trust Fund as well as Public Housing and Section 8 (Housing Choice Voucher) programs are critical resources to leverage CDBG and HOME funds. 
The City of Chandler also applies for other state and foundation funding to leverage these local and federal funds.

(CDBG) funds may be used for a variety of 
activities that meet the needs of low- and 
moderate-income residents and 
communities. Eligible activities are public 
services, economic development, and 
capital improvements such as 
infrastructure, facilities, and housing. 
Each activity must meet a HUD objective. 
Table 5 - Expected Resources – Priority Table 
Explain how federal funds will leverage those additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how 
matching requirements will be satisfied 
In addition to its annual CDBG entitlement allocation, the City may receive program income from the operation of its owner-occupied housing 
rehabilitation program. These funds will be reinvested into the housing rehabilitation program. The City may also have prior year resources that

Annual Action Plan
2022 
40
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2022) 
may become available upon fiscal year end. These funds will be re-allocated through the City’s procurement process. 
Social Services, Youth Enhancement, Veteran's Transportation and Acts of Kindness Fund leverage federal funds for public services activities. 
Local bond funds supplement federal funding for capital improvements projects. HOME matching requirements are met on a project by project 
basis, with all match funds currently retained by Maricopa County. 
If appropriate, describe publically owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs 
identified in the plan 
The City of Chandler owns five public housing sites, 103 scattered site houses and several vacant parcels of land. In the next few years, these 
assets will be considered for potential development or redevelopment to increase affordable housing opportunities for Chandler residents with 
low and moderate income.

Table 7 – Project Information 
Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved 
needs 
The City annually issues an RFP to distribute funding to nonprofit and City departments that may utilize 
CDBG funds to address priority needs. The City requires grantees to include a performance 
measurement strategy in funding proposals to demonstrate that proposed services will enhance the 
lives of City residents and meet identified needs. The strategy quantifies long- and short-term goals, 
activities, outputs and outcomes. It includes client demographics, projections of the number of 
individuals and households that will be served, and annual unit-of-service projections. The primary 
obstacle to addressing underserved needs is insufficient funding and limitations of funding sources. In 
addition, many nonprofit agencies serve multiple jurisdictions in the region and few are dedicated solely 
to providing services in Chandler.

AP-50 Geographic Distribution - 91.420, 91.220(f) 
Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-income and 
minority concentration) where assistance will be directed  
The City of Chandler consists of approximately 65 square miles and shares boundaries with the Town of 
Gilbert, Cities of Mesa, Phoenix, and Tempe, and the Gila River Indian Community. Chandler has reached 
its physical geographical limits, with the exception of a few remaining County islands. Downtown 
Chandler and several neighborhoods in zip codes 85224 and 85225 are long-established and have higher 
concentrations of low and moderate income and minority households. There are 19 Census Block 
Groups where at least 51% of the population is low and moderate income, and another 20 where at 
least 37.38% of the population is low and moderate income; these are Community Development Block 
Grant-eligible areas. 
Pursuant to the specific projects identified in AP-35, the commitment of CDBG funding will be based 
primarily on low and moderate income requirements of clients assisted, special needs and those 
experiencing homelessness. Capital projects and code enforcement provide area benefit and are 
targeted in CDBG-eligible areas.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing -91.420, 91.220(j) 
Introduction 
Affordable housing barriers are regulatory or financial systems that make it harder for developers to create affordable housing. Barriers to 
affordable housing development can occur at many levels – local, state and federal government, as well as in related industries, such as the real 
estate, insurance and finance industries. In recent years, Chandler has taken steps to encourage the development of affordable housing by 
updating its zoning ordinance and map and other land use controls. 
HUD defines a regulatory barrier as "a public regulatory requirement, payment, or process that significantly impedes the development or 
availability of affordable housing without providing a commensurate health and/or safety benefit." This section refers to actions planned to 
remove or ameliorate 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. 
Actions it planned 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 
Chandler’s General Plan includes public policies to address barriers to affordable housing, including but not limited to: 
• Encourage live/work developments, where appropriate (e.g., Downtown, high capacity transit corridors, regional commercial nodes); 
• Provide for a variety of housing choices for all income levels; 
• Promote a compatible mix of housing types in in-fill areas; 
• Encourage a range of housing types within walking distance of schools and other community facilities (e.g., libraries, transit centers, 
community centers, health clinics, recreation spaces, and healthy food establishments); 
• Address housing needs of fixed-income elderly persons and other special-needs populations; 
• Support the aging and disabled population in neighborhoods by continuing to implement programs that assist them in meeting neighborhood 
maintenance codes; 
• Increase capacity for and coordination of affordable housing programs and projects; 
• Concentrate on improving housing affordability Citywide;

Annual Action Plan
2022 
53
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2022) 
• Continue to encourage private investment in affordable housing; 
• Enforce housing and neighborhood maintenance policies; 
• Improve rental housing maintenance to ensure quality neighborhoods; 
• Ensure compatible transition between residential areas and incompatible land uses as well as between intensity of land uses (e.g., between 
employment and residential); 
• Improve transition between and continuity of old and new neighborhoods; 
• Maintain, and where needed, improve infrastructure as neighborhoods age; 
• Create and promote educational outreach and training seminars on housing and neighborhood maintenance; 
• Continue to increase the quality of life in neighborhoods by promoting civic engagement; 
• Continue to recognize adopted neighborhood and specific area plans that provide further development guidance in targeted areas; 
• Foster organization of and training for HOA and traditional non-HOA neighborhoods; 
• Continue to provide programs that encourage neighborhood identity and a sense of place; and 
• Foster partnerships and collaboration with nonprofits, businesses, and other organizations to support neighborhood and community 
development. 
Discussion 
The primary impediment to accomplishing Consolidated Plan goals is the high cost and limited supply of permanent housing. Planned housing 
and public services activities will address this need to the extent possible with available resources.

AP-85 Other Actions - 91.420, 91.220(k) 
Introduction 
The City will continue prior city policies/programs and enhance the programs as needed. The growing 
wealth disparity will continue to push Chandler to find new partnerships and better ways to work 
together.  
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs 
The primary obstacles to meeting underserved needs are insufficient funding and rigid regulations. The 
City allocates both general funds and federal funds, both limited in funding, to nonprofits and City 
departments to serve the most vulnerable residents in the community. The City works to serve short-
term needs while implementing long-term strategies to help the individual or family achieve self-
sufficiency. The City works across the continuum from families and individuals in emergency situations 
working to achieve shelter and food to families and individuals struggling to make a repair on their 
home. Throughout the continuum, the goal is to achieve stability and reduce the incidence of poverty in 
the future. The City will continue to seek other funding sources with flexible regulations to meet the 
needs of the community as the funding is available.  
Chandler leverages CDBG and HOME funds with 1.1 million in General Fund resources to support 
agencies that address the needs of the City's vulnerable residents. The specific program areas that are 
funded are: 1) Youth, including educational support, health programs, and prevention/interaction 
activities; 2) Basic Needs, including crisis intervention, temporary assistance, basic needs, and support 
services focused on service animal training for veterans to cope with trauma and adversity; 3) Special 
Populations, including basic needs, independent living programs, socialization and education services; 4) 
Transportation Services for Veteran's with low-income. 
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing 
Housing for all incomes, and services for persons experiencing homelessness were identified as top 
areas of need in the 2019 Community Needs Assessment. Nearly 40% of Chandler rental households are 
cost burdened, spending over 30% of their income on housing. Over 16% of Chandler rental households 
are severely cost burdened, spending over half of their income on housing. As a result, the City of 
Chandler continues to look for ways to maintain affordable housing and expand the inventory as the 
housing market continues to tighten. The City of Chandler utilizes a combination of CDBG and HOME 
funding to address and expand affordable housing. The City offers single-family owner-occupied housing 
rehabilitation to assist Chandler homeowners who are low and moderate income with emergency 
repairs, minor repairs, ADA modifications and exterior improvements that would not be fixed otherwise. 
These programs keep homeowners in a safe, affordable home that often they have lived in for years. 
The City of Chandler's Community Development staff works closely with the Chandler Public Housing

Authority (PHA) in serving its low- and moderate-income Chandler residents. The Chandler PHA 
administers the Tenant-Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) program, serving households experiencing 
homelessness. The Community Development staff provides oversight for homeless outreach and 
services. Communications are ongoing with the Chandler PHA regarding individuals and families 
experiencing homelessness, and those who may be eligible for this service. 
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards 
To reduce the risk of lead poisoning, information is distributed to participants in City housing programs. 
The City follows strict HUD guidelines for testing and abatement of lead-based paint and other 
hazardous substances, and requires compliance from its contractors and subcontractors. Any structure 
built before 1978 that is proposed for rehabilitation under federal programs is tested for lead-based 
paint. Notices and requirements regarding testing and removal of lead based paint are provided to 
program participants, contractors and project sponsors. 
In addition, the City follows a multi-pronged approach to reduce lead hazards: 
1. Rehabilitation Projects. The City follows strict HUD guidelines for testing and abatement of lead-based 
paint and other hazardous substances, and requires compliance from its contractors and subcontractors. 
Any structure built before 1978 that is proposed for rehabilitation under federal programs, is tested for 
lead-based paint. Notices and requirements regarding testing and removal of lead-based paint are 
provided to program participants, contractors and project sponsors. The City’s service provider has 
licensed contractors who are available to perform appropriate abatement and/or removal procedures if 
lead-based paint is present. 
2. Housing Choice Voucher: Section 8. The PHA inspects prospective dwellings constructed prior to 1978 
that will have a child under the age of six residing therein, for compliance with EPA and HUD Lead Based 
Paint rules and regulations. The inspection includes visual inspections for chipped, peeling, chalking and 
deteriorated interior and exterior paint. Clearance testing may be performed after remediation by the 
property owner, to assure a lead-safe environment. 
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families 
The City of Chandler will continue to work collaboratively with nonprofits, the Continuum of Care, and 
other cities in the valley to address poverty collectively. The City will continue to fund agencies that will 
alleviate the effects of crisis for individuals who are low and moderate income especially those 
experiencing homelessness, by providing basic services such as food, clothing, necessary medical care, 
job training and employment supports, as well as case management services, and also providing short 
and long-term housing solutions such as shelter, tenant based rental assistance, and rapid rehousing. 
Actions planned to develop institutional structure  
The City will continue to participate in the regional Continuum of Care including workgroups and sitting

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2022) 
on the Continuum of Care Board, working collaboratively with the East Valley City Managers and 
assisting with For Our City - Chandler. In addition, the City will continue to develop public/private 
partnerships to address housing, finance and community development efforts. 
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social 
service agencies 
Chandler will continue to work with For Our City to coordinate resources to Chandler’s most vulnerable 
residents. For Our City is a network of faith-based organizations, nonprofits, service organizations, 
businesses, and the City of Chandler working together in unity and compassion to help the residents of 
Chandler. Using the For Our City network, Chandler can connect nonprofits, volunteers, and vulnerable 
individuals together to serve the most effectively.

1) In an unscheduled appearance, Chandler resident, Linda Sawyer, 1158 W. Linda Lane,
Chandler, AZ 85224, asked that the Commission consider the effects the approved
programs have on traditional neighborhoods not supported by an HOA.  She shared her
concerns with the traffic these programs bring into the neighborhoods, individuals
rummaging through the trash, and sleeping in the alleys.  Ms. Sawyer asked the
Commission to do their due diligence to ensure that neighborhoods are protected,
especially with the police department’s staffing shortages and inability to provide extra
patrol.

Housing and Human Services Commission Meeting – CDBG Public Hearing 
235 South Arizona Avenue, Chandler, AZ 85225 (in-person and virtually) 
1) Chandler resident, Linda Sawyer voiced her concerns regarding the increase of crime in
her neighborhood.  She stated that the police department is understaffed and not able
to immediately respond.  She shared an incident where police were not able to respond
until the next day and had asked for video of the incident.  Ms. Sawyer stated that people
in the programs being discussed are not being treated and are simply being dropped off
in neighborhoods.  She also shared her discontent with being given only 3 minutes to
speak regarding her concerns with the funding being allocated.  She said as a constituent
she was concerned with the lack of Code Enforcement in neighborhoods.  Ms. Sawyer
asked where she could receive answers since she took the time to be at tonight’s meeting.
2) Chief Executive Officer Jacki Taylor from Save the Family thanked the Commission and
expressed her appreciation for the City’s partnership.  Ms. Taylor explained the CDBG
funding that her organization receives supports the Case Management program.  The
Case Management program works with families to secure jobs and provide other support
services.  She shared that her organization is seeing unprecedented numbers of
individuals experiencing homelessness. She indicated that at the time the organization
submitted its application for funding, there were approximately 26 affordable housing
units for every 100 households. Now, the number of affordable housing units has
dropped to 18 for every 100 households. Ms. Taylor explained that her organization is
committed to helping families find housing stability and that it is more important now
than ever before.

PETITION BY CHANDLER RESIDENTS AND LEGAL VOTERS 
We the citizens, taxpayers, and constituents of Chandler Arizona do not approve of the City of Chandler applying for Federal/State 
fund.ing for homeless programs. Citizens should have the opportunity to decide how our tax dollars are spent. 
A study should be conducted to determine the impact that these programs have on the health and safety of our city. The city of 
Chandler is experiencing a police staffing shortage, increase in crime, and neglected neighborhoods. Programs for the homeless or not 
enhancing the health and safety of our community, but rather doing the opposite. Although the city is meeting their obligation to post the 
meeting date, time, and the venue these meetings have been virtual meetings and questions are not being answered at the meetings, 
Residents are given 3 minutes to talk, and not permitted to have dialogue for clarification. The Chandler residents and legal voters want 
this conduct by City official to be changed.
