Executive Summary
AP-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b)
1. Introduction
The City of Muskegon is the lead agency for a unique partnership with other HUD grantee municipalities:
Muskegon Heights and Norton Shores. Our Regional Consolidated Plan is used to encompass
communities that use CDBG funds for specific National Objectives to accomplish the goals set by each
city Annual Action Plan for the next 3 years. The city of Muskegon is the only recipient of the HOME
Partnership funds however, the HOME ARP funds are not specifically limited to our city limits.
Our Action plan for 2025 will be supported with CDBG, HOME and HOME ARP funds through the
department of Community and Neighborhood Services of the City of Muskegon from the Department of
Housing and Urban Development. The City also utilizes other funding secured through other funding to
leverage funding for our community that may expand outside of the City of Muskegon to include
surrounding communities. These other grants include, Medicaid Chip funding to support Lead
Abatement, Senior millage to assist low income seniors with health and safety concerns and Healthy
Homes which also provides health and safety home repairs to families who are either elderly or have
children in their home under 5 years of age. Leveraging these dollars helps to offset cost or provide
more assistance to families who need multiple repairs.
*The activities and budget for the Annual Action Plan is proposed and subject to change due to funding
amounts for the new year and commission approval.

The city participates on several boards and meeting circuits that add financial and social benefit to our
citizens. The level of coordination is monthly, quarterly and sometimes annually.
Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of
homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with
children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness.
The city of Muskegon and our partnering grantees are represented with the Continuum of Care (CoC) for
Muskegon county. We have a coordinated effort to support the needs of homeless and to create ways
to avoid homelessness in our community by identifying those most at risk. We meet quarterly and as
often as needed to provide resources and information that address the needs of these vulnerable
categories. COC's steering counsel has representation for homeless families, veterans, seniors, disability
agencies, public health and housing authorities. Together the group collaborates to ensure that all
persons has adequate access to services that align with needs. Although, some individuals are not
directly served through our agencies, our partnership and collaboration ensure that none is left behind.
Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in
determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards for and evaluate
outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding, policies and
procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved
needs
Home Repairs are key to our community. Families need to have safe and decent living environments in
our community as well as where they reside. A large number of our citizens are senior (60+) and the
need for home repairs have been noted by longer waiting lists. The focus of allocations are based on
past practice programs that address the needs of those underserved with low income which has been
the greatest obstacles.

AP-50 Geographic Distribution - 91.220(f)
Description of the geographic areas of the entitlement (including areas of low-income and
minority concentration) where assistance will be directed
Muskegon is made up of more than 15 neighborhoods that offer a variety of races, socio-economic
backgrounds and ratios of household demographics. This entitlement community is aware of where the
concentration of low-income and minority citizens reside. Our geographic areas of concern have
produced programs called Blight Fight initiatives, Neighborhood Associations, and intentional
engagement with citizens to improve the look and feel of safety, homeownership, improvements and
enhancements requested by the residents.

Table 8 - Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically
Our geographic investments are always for our citizens within our city limits. 100% of our public services
and public facilities invest in this community. The residents of low-moderate incomes receive a
multitude of services through the funding of CDBG and HOME funded programs but also because of a
variety of county and state grants.
We find that our citizens are the priority as community development investments increase in our
downtown development. Other local funding awards can assist county residents and our citizens are
now able to access additional help.
Discussion
The Regional Consolidated Plan will provide a structure of how each entitlement community will derive
actions to create a safe, decent and affordable options for its citizens. Our collaborative events and
agreed upon strategies provide each community with options to address our own citizens accordingly.

Affordable Housing
AP-55 Affordable Housing - 91.220(g)
Introduction
Affordable housing continues to be the forefront our planning efforts within the City limits. The goal this
year is to work with the Continuum of Care to coordinate housing to homeless families. The city has
acquired 4 units that will be available to families to lease for one year, up to two years to support
permanent housing.
In addition to this, our HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) funds are used to offer Rental
Rehabilitation to existing Landlords, produce Homeownership homes and support the purchase of
housing within Muskegon city limits to qualifying buyers.
We continue to reach out to organizations to create more opportunity for Community Housing
Development Organizations (CHDO) for rental and homebuyer. this partnership is essential to the
development of housing in the community.

Discussion
The City has taken the initiative to secure housing for housing preservation in an effort to increase
homeownership. These homes are marketed to low income families, preferably those who wish to be

AP-60 Public Housing - 91.220(h)
Introduction
The Muskegon Housing Commission is a Public Housing Authority that has been approved to begin a
Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) project. RAD is an alternative program that will give
Management oversight as the property managers of rental units and removing HUD froma fiduciary
position. The city of Muskegon has been an active support to MHC through Board appointments.
Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing
The Housing Commission has an active Resident Advisory Council (RAC)! Management has been involved
with the reinstatement of the advisory council because of the upcoming changes (renovations) to
happen through the RAD process. The residents have been included in the selection of flooring, colors,
and overall updates. Tenant involvement will continue until the construction is complete.
in addition to RAC, staff reports that another organized group shares and supports the RAC with special
events and monitoring through floor captains. Monthly events, movie nights, and personal care for
neighbors is at an all-time high.
Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and
participate in homeownership
The current tenancy is not leaning towards homeownership. As of right now, the RAD project will
require that management reviews the interest of the residents to verify if they will remain occupants of
the Hartford Terrace building prior to the start of construction. Homeownership and other rental
opportunities will be discussed as needed. The city of Muskegon will assist if Homeownership is
requested.
If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be
provided or other assistance
A troubled status has not been assigned to this housing authority.
Discussion
The Housing Commission has stabilized its opportunity to offer affordable housing that is both decent
and safe. Programs and outside resources are now present in the building on a regular basis. Tenant
participation is welcomed and received at monthly board meetings which has been a desired outcome
with new management.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities - 91.220(i)
Introduction
Special needs and homeless activities are supported through the efforts of our HOME ARP (American
Rescue Plan) allocation for 2021. Through this funding, HUD has allowed the city of Muskegon to lead
housing, shelter and services programs for vulnerable people experiencing these needs. Substantial
amendments itemizing these new resources will be identified in specific terms to describe the qualifying
population, programs providing services/resources, and affordable housing opportunities.
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness
including
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their
individual needs
Homelessness and ending homelessness continues to be a priority with the City of Muskegon and the
community as a whole. The Continuum of Care coordinates the Point in Time counts that happen
quarterly to contact those who may be living in homelessness. Other efforts include coordinating with
local agencies with services that align with the housing first model.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
The City of Muskegon has four apartment style homes available to rent to low income families for
transitional housing. We have partnered with CoC and Community enCompass to use the housing first
model to house families on first come first serve basis.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families
with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to
permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that
individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals
and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were
recently homeless from becoming homeless again
Our staff is preparing to produce affordable housing units for homeless, veterans, families with
transitional, permanent of independent living situations. Affordable housing purchases will create
housing units specific to the CoC families. This new opportunity will purchase existing properties for
affordable housing to this population only. The city will utilize HOME ARP funding to develop 1-4 multi-
family housing that will becomes homes to up to four families per development.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely
low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly
Annual Action Plan 25
2025
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities,
foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving
assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services,
employment, education, or youth needs. —
Yes, we will help low-income households avoid homeless situations by addressing their needs where
they are by using local agency resources. Community Health, Rescue Mission, and other connected
agencies that refer families for assistance. We work with our schools and social service agencies to
collectively meet the needs of our citizens. It is also our belief that by providing home repairs will
increase the likelihood for a person to be able to maintain housing and age in place.
Discussion
The city's initiatives are geared to addressing the housing crisis in our area. Recently, the city conducted
a Housing Needs Assessment that assessed many aspects of housing in our area and it was determined
that there are not sufficient vacant units available to support the current size of our community. the
data supports the need to increase housing by creating 300+ units of affordable housing throughout the
area to ensure there is housing for all. This will not be an easy or small task and will take us many years
to successfully respond and address this issue. We have begun to strategize methods to properly
respond to this issue.

AP-75 Action Plan Barriers to Affordable Housing - 91.220(j)
Introduction
A Barrier to affordable housing is that there is not affordable and safe housing available to all city
residents. Affordable housing is very limited and the cost of rent continues to sore as need grows. The
city has provided a number of avenues to create housing choice- market rate, affordable and approval of
multifamily housing construction projects. Choice is the ultimate vision of a viable and inclusive city.
Another Barrier to affordable housing is that there are not a lot of funding options to create the number
of houses or types of housing needed to fit the needs of our community. The City has assisted in this
effort by rehabbing homes and marketing the homes to low income homebuyers and renters but the
footprint could be much larger granted there were more streams of accessible funding.
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
Current barriers to zoning ordinance updates are present within neighborhoods that resist change. The
neighbors that see the positive effects of change have seen an increase in quality, new homes of varied
types of housing: duplexes, row-housing units, multifamily, and new constructions. The city has been
working to update ordinates and zoning and creating innovative ways to allow for more builds on
available land.
Discussion
The city continues to research the housing market to identify the gaps and assess the need for housing
in our community. The research will be turned into a strategic plan that will in turn create actionable
items to impact the housing situation for all of the community. The City will continue to explore
sustainable ways to increase the housing market and to ensure that it is reflective of the community
needs.

Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs are to continue to meet and
identify agencies to assist the underserved. The community has been in communication regarding the
need for a central location that all agencies would have access to individuals to help navigate and
connect with services and resources. This way will help encourage communication from one agency to
the next and ensure that people who could benefit from services are not slipping through the cracks.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing
Actions reviewed to maintain affordable housing are to continue rehabbing properties for sale to
income eligible families and creating affordable rental property opportunities.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
The City of Muskegon has a Lead Safe program that is diligently working to remedy lead based pain in
homes that are pre 1978 and have Medicaid families living in them. Any home that is in the City of
Muskegon and receives a home repair will also have water tested to ensure water quality is free from
lead. Other actions the City has taken is to encourage citizens who are participating in home repair
programs that have young children to participate in the lead abatement program.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families
The plan to reduce the number of poverty-level families is always a collaborative effort of the City, local
agencies, Public Housing Authorities, Continuum of Care and the communities. Everyone together is
actively looking for innovative ways to fight this fight on poverty.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
Institutional structures in our city require investment in education, strong neighborhoods, and stable
housing.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
